Chapter 934 Method to Deal with It As Soon As Possible
Qiao Nan did not wish for this incident to affect Peking University or tarnish the reputation of the Zhai family.
Qiao Nan looked anxious. She had already said that the man in the photo was her elder and her father knew about it. The teachers could verify with her father anytime.
Since they were certain that the thread was untrue, even if Qiao Nan did not tell them of the serious consequences, they were willing to block and delete the thread.
It was not difficult to delete the thread. What was difficult was to stop the students in Peking University from discussing this false thread.
Among the teachers who were in the discussion group, one of them was from the computing faculty. After ascertaining that they could do so, the teacher clicked on the school forum to block and delete the thread.
While the teacher was blocking and deleting the thread, other teachers went on to calm Qiao Nan down. “The thread will no longer be an issue. Qiao Nan, there is no need to be so uptight about it or warn us about the serious consequences. Rest a.s.sured. We will not allow our students to malign other students. We will uphold justice. Our teachers will post on the school forum, proving to everyone that the man in the photo is your elder.”
The teachers had the idea that in order to reduce the impact the thread had on her, Qiao Nan was exaggerating about the consequences.
Qiao Nan felt like crying at the teachers who had kind intentions but were ignorant of the real truth. “Teacher, to be honest, he is really my elder and my dad knows him. Back then, I stayed in the quad in Ping Cheng. My grandpa used to be a veteran revolutionary. This elder of mine is not an ordinary person. He came to the capital to attend a meeting in the central government regarding the National Day.”
They should understand the severity by now!
He must be an important figure to attend a meeting in the central government.
Furthermore, most of the families who lived in the quad had revolutionaries background.
Several teachers fell from their seats. Actually, several professors in Peking University were part of the central government. They even had connections with the central government. Their princ.i.p.al was one of them.
The problem was that all of them present were not part of the central government!
Besides, it was just a scandal regarding one of their students who was said to be a kept woman.
There were many such incidents in other schools as well. Besides, this was not the first time that this had happened in Peking University, and all of the past incidents had been settled satisfactorily. But why was an official in the central government embroiled in this?
“Q-Qiao Nan, do you know what you are talking about?” This was a very serious matter. If the government official was really embroiled in the scandal, the culprit might have to face a lawsuit.
The teachers could not help but berate Qiao Nan for her impulsiveness. “Qiao Nan, we have already said that after verifying with your father, the school will uphold justice and let everyone know that the post is untrue. There is no need for you to…”
Qiao Nan had a bitter smile on her face. The Zhai family was based in Ping Cheng. Her father-in-law needed to travel around for his work, and he seldom stayed in a place for long. He rarely spent time in the capital.
In her two lifetimes, the Zhai family and her family stayed in the same quad and the people in the quad were familiar with the situation in the Zhai family.
Otherwise, if she was to run into the Zhai family by chance, she would not have known that the Zhai family held very important positions in China and in the central government. At most, she would feel that the Zhai family seemed to exude the righteousness aura of a soldier.
Therefore, Qiao Nan was not surprised that the teachers in Peking University could not recognize her father-in-law in the photo.
Qiao Nan believed that the teachers would not be able to recognize her father-in-law, but she was certain that as the princ.i.p.al of Peking University, he must know about her father-in-law.
They needed someone who had connections to handle this matter.
“How about…” Qiao Nan seemed to be very serious. What she said might be true.
“Hurry, give the princ.i.p.al a call.”
The teachers in the discussion group quickly made a phone call to the princ.i.p.al. Although it was hard to believe that a student in the work-study program would have a senior government official in the family, they could not take the risk.
What if something happened? Who would take the responsibility?
Qiao Nan waited while the teachers worked on this matter, hoping that they would make sure that n.o.body was affected. On the other hand, Lü Yan waited anxiously for what was to happen.
Lü Yan never thought of achieving anything when she posted the thread. She never meant for Qiao Nan to be expelled because of the thread.
She thought that once Qiao Nan’s reputation was tarnished, s.h.i.+ Qing would look down on her and stop being friends with her. By then, Qiao Nan would no longer be able to take advantage of s.h.i.+ Qing.
It took Lü Yan a lot of hard work to get into Peking University. She was not evil-natured to the point of plotting against Qiao Nan such that she would be expelled.
One could only say that Lü Yan was too simple-minded. She did not expect that the post would result in such serious consequences.
If the party concerned was someone else, Lü Yan might be right to think that the scandal would die down eventually and nothing serious would happen.
In fact, it would not turn serious if Qiao Nan was the only person who was implicated in this incident. However, the problem was that she had taken a photo of Zhai Yaohui and made untrue comments about the photo.
In short, Lü Yan had been blind to provoke people that she should not have provoked.
Tang Jiayun and Yu Xiaoxiao were not in the dormitory. Lü Yan did not dare to stay in the dormitory by herself. She found a place and paid some money to go online to check the latest developments.
After switching on the computer, Lü Yan did nothing but stare at the thread that she posted, checking if there were any latest developments.
Lü Yan was not in the mood to read through the comments that other people made regarding her thread. She wished that she could mute all those people who commented and were out to watch the show.
If not for these people who commented on the thread, it would not have been among the widely commented threads. Things would not have blown up and she would not have been anxious and worried about the consequences.
While Lü Yan was looking through the forum, she realized that her thread was missing.
Lü Yan blinked several times. She used her mouse to refresh a couple of times. She was sure that the thread was still on the forum one second ago. However, it was gone the next moment.
Lü Yan refreshed several times, but she still could not find her thread. Lü Yan returned to the first page of the forum to check. The thread was widely commented on. She remembered that it was on the first page of the forum and among the first few threads. It would not be difficult to find the thread.
But even so, Lü Yan could not see her thread.
Initially, she refused to believe in fate. She tried to search for the thread but to no avail!
