Zheng Pengcheng, a graduate student who, if things went smoothly, should graduate in June this year.
But for now, he is in a state of delay in graduation.
When he received the call from the departnt leader, his first reaction was that the truth had been revealed.
He walked to the office trembling, and upon seeing the principal there, he felt utterly deflated.
The departnt head smiled and said, "Don’t be nervous. We’re just trying to understand the reason behind your delay in graduation. If I rember correctly, you were asked to postpone your graduation because you did not et the master’s degree defense requirents, hence you couldn’t participate in the graduation defense."
In their major, to participate in the defense, you only need to satisfy one of the conditions. Either achieve great research results or publish in core journals, and there are other options as well, all related to research, since Zheng Pengcheng is pursuing an academic master’s degree.
Zheng Pengcheng forced a smile worse than a cry, "Yes, I don’t et the criteria. So now I’m studying diligently with Professor Gu."
The departnt head’s smile remained unchanged, "That’s great. To be admitted into our major, everyone is exceptionally talented. So, Xiao Zheng, are you aware that so unfavorable remarks about our school appeared online today?"
Zheng Pengcheng nervously answered, "I—I know a bit, but I don’t know who would be so outrageous to slander Professor Gu."
The leaders exchanged glances, thinking unanimously of Gu Chi’s words.
Upon knowing that a student was delaying graduation, they had a suspect in mind. According to their thod of handling, they would, of course, talk to the student, reveal the truth, and then mark this student with a penalty.
At that ti, Gu Chi was smiling brightly as if a hundred flowers blood.
"Just mark a penalty? The cost of committing a cri is too low, similar things will happen repeatedly."
The departnt head laughed, "It’s not considered a cri yet."
"How can it not be? The person who spread rumors is suspected of defamation, and I’ve already contacted a lawyer."
The young man, two rounds younger than them, smiled kindly, "Regardless of how the school handles it, I will file a lawsuit."
Implying that if the court eventually decides but the school handles it lightly, the school would be at the center of controversy.
Therefore, after discussions, the leaders decided to probe Zheng Pengcheng. If he admitted voluntarily, they might still cherish the talent.
Unfortunately, at this point, Zheng Pengcheng still insisted stubbornly.
The departnt head stopped smiling, "After Professor Gu reported to the police, once the case is filed, the police will contact the platform to obtain basic information about the rumormonger."
Zheng Pengcheng felt as if struck by lightning.
Why would the usually kind Professor Gu suddenly beco so rciless?
"No, leaders, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong!"
Zheng Pengcheng cried with tears all over his face.
"I shouldn’t have seen soone defaming Professor Gu as unscrupulous, and jumped out to say he enslaved graduate students. I just wanted to graduate, I didn’t an any harm!"
The leaders frowned tightly, "You weren’t the one who sent the photos to the marketing account?"
Zheng Pengcheng shook his head while crying.
Feeling lighthearted, Gu Chi took his brother and sister to report the incident to the police, and after the case was filed, the rest was left to the police and the law.
Returning to Gu Mo’s residence, taking advantage of Gu Mo being busy, Gu Chi took Tuanzi to the terrace, "Let’s watch the stars."
Tuanzi reluctantly showed a bit of interest.
Seeing her persistently puffing her cheeks, Gu Chi secretly poked them several tis.
Finally, Tuanzi couldn’t bear it anymore and swiftly grabbed his finger, her big eyes full of admonition.
"Brother Gu Chi, you’re like a bee, kind of annoying."
"Eh? When ntioning bees, shouldn’t they be considered industrious?"
Tuanzi had her own opinion, "But when a little bear eats honey, the bee will annoy it, right?"
Gu Chi chuckled, pinching her cheeks, "You’re just the little bear stealing honey."
Tuanzi lifted her small head, "Miaomiao always eats openly and honestly!"
But quickly, she lowered her head again, "Wouldn’t it be too easy for them this ti?"
Gu Chi understood.
"Using the law to punish them isn’t enough?"
Tuanzi looked left and right, suddenly waved her little paw. Gu Chi cooperatively leaned closer, "Do you want to reveal a little secret?"
"Actually, in the Jianghu, we emphasize swift retribution, sotis without handing offenders over to the authorities."
Gu Chi’s expression turned odd.
Tuanzi explained, "Because at one ti, the master didn’t like the authorities, and if offenders were handed over, they would secretly release the people. It was extrely despicable!"
"But then, the new authorities were powerful, so the master handed the offenders over to them again."
Tuanzi nodded thoughtfully, "But handling it ourselves is indeed convenient. Only master says, we can’t represent the court, without national laws, things would get chaotic, and ordinary people would suffer."
Gu Chi patiently listened, "Your master is right. Do you see now, isn’t society more peaceful than before?"
Tuanzi nodded in agreent, "Miaomiao almost has no place to use her martial arts."
"So handing those bad guys over to Uncle Police is more suitable, isn’t it?"
Tuanzi nodded again, "It’s just that Uncle Police has a tough job."
After a round of communication, Tuanzi finally stopped troubling over the defamation issue.
Legal punishnt is also good. If they used fists, they’d only hurt for a while, but being legally punished would be a lifelong disgrace!
Feeling relieved, Tuanzi curled her lips and ran back to the living room with her hands behind her back. Unknowingly, she wandered to a cabinet and looked closely, discovering various candies and chocolates!
Tuanzi’s big eyes turned into the shape of candy.
She tiptoed but couldn’t reach. Rembering it belonged to brother Gu Mo, she ran to the study, sneakily poking out her little head.
The young professor was still busy, so she didn’t dare interrupt.
But without the owner’s permission, she couldn’t eat the candies and chocolates in the cabinet, ow.
Tuanzi walked back dejectedly, discovering Gu Chi had opened the cabinet, and instantly ran over.
"This belongs to brother Gu Mo, can we take it casually?"
"It’s alright, he lets us eat as we please."
Gu Chi told her a little secret, "Don’t judge him by his serious deanor. He actually likes buying various candies and chocolates, sotis just because they look good. If we don’t eat them, they’ll expire."
Tuanzi suddenly understood.
"Eating them prevents waste, it’s doing a good deed!"
"Exactly," Gu Chi took out a jar of gummy candies, "Co on, let’s share them. The first piece is yours."
Tuanzi happily took it, quickly unwrapped it and stuffed it into her mouth, then looked eagerly as Gu Chi ate a piece.
"Alright, alright, the next piece is Miaomiao’s."
The siblings hugged the candy jar, sharing the sweets with identical smiles.
The system increasingly thought Gu Chi was unsuitable for teaching children, as such behavior would spoil the host!
After giving another piece of candy to his sister, seeing her get lost in the enjoynt without a hint of caution, Gu Chi casually asked, "Why do you use words like ’bandit,’ ’governnt,’ ’court’? It sounds as if you lived in ancient tis before."
Tuanzi was struggling with the candy wrapper, casually replied, "It’s because Miaomiao actually lived in ancient tis before!"
Gu Chi slowly squinted his eyes.
