Zhang Tao, while speaking the truth, beca increasingly emotional.
"The rich kids snatched the scholarships ant for poor students, and they tell to take it calmly, saying this kind of thing is common."
"I just want to ask, how am I supposed to calmly accept this?"
"It’s no big deal that I didn’t get a scholarship myself. Although I’m very poor, I’ve always been working hard at part-ti jobs to earn money. I’m strong, I’m not afraid of hardship."
"But many of my friends, many classmates, they are all poor students; they have no money! They can’t do as many part-ti jobs as I do."
"Yet, they can’t get the poverty scholarships."
"I want justice!"
"I want those classmates who should originally receive scholarships to actually get them."
"I don’t want their scholarships to be replaced by the nas of rich kids and wealthy people."
"This is unfair!"
"I reported it..."
"I chose to post a video, but imdiately after I posted it, my horoom teacher and counselor called in for a talk."
"They asked to delete the video, saying I was spreading rumors. If I didn’t delete it, they would write up."
"I want fairness, but I have no way!"
"I really have no way left!"
"I even thought about using my family’s account to post videos, letting other students post videos..."
"But the school kept calling for talks, and even transferred my dorm room, putting with two teachers...."
"Everyday two teachers monitored what I did, prohibiting from using my phone, let alone posting videos... everyday talking to , everyday giving so ridiculous psychological counseling."
"Your Honor, this concludes my statent. These are the facts of the matter," said Zhang Tao.
This is why Zhang Tao was determined to keep fighting this legal battle.
Should rich children with money and power take away the scholarships ant for poor students?
No one dared to speak out, but Zhang Tao stood up!
Even if... expelled by the school.
But so what? He could only stand up!
He wanted justice!
Your Honor Shen Jiarui looked at Zhang Tao and said, "The rich kid you ntioned is Zhao Wenxuan. He took the spot for a first-class scholarship. How do you know he’s a rich kid? How do you know he took your poverty scholarship?"
Zhang Tao said, "Your Honor, not only do I know, all my classmates know. Everyone in the class knows."
"Every day, Zhao Wenxuan wears designer clothes and is very generous. He always boasts about how many houses, buildings, and cars his family owns, acting like he’s really rich. Everyone knows he’s wealthy."
"There were a couple of tis he ca to school in a Ferrari and a Porsche to see his girlfriend. Everyone knows he’s got money."
"He can afford such luxury cars, which many people can’t buy in a lifeti!"
"Then he said his dad was amazing and helped him secure a spot for a poverty scholarship."
"He said he would use the scholarship money to buy a diamond ring as a gift for his girlfriend."
"He’s always bragging."
"Why should he use money ant for poor students to live extravagantly? Does he lack money? Is it because his dad is powerful, so he can just take the scholarship spots from other poor students? Aren’t scholarships ant for poor students?"
Zhang Tao finished speaking.
Gu Chen then asked, "Everyone knows Zhao Wenxuan is a rich kid, right? The school erased your video, blocked your account, and even transferred your dorm? What did they do to you?"
Zhang Tao said, "They have teachers giving psychological counseling every day. Two teachers stayed with , and for so ti, they wouldn’t let use my phone. I couldn’t use my phone at all. When I wanted to go out to find soone... only when there was a holiday could I leave to find soone."
Gu Chen said, "So, that amounts to illegal detention, and denying you the use of your phone to stay in contact with the outside world, right? Also limiting your personal freedom. What’s the na of these two teachers?"
Zhang Tao said, "These two teachers are my horoom teacher and my counselor."
Gu Chen hadn’t continued asking further yet.
Zhang Tao’s horoom teacher, Guo Liangping, couldn’t help but speak up.
"Your Honor! Zhang Tao is talking nonsense! He’s slandering!"
"I stayed with Zhang Tao simply because I was concerned about his ntal state, worried that he was having problems, so I spoke with him daily. How could it be illegal detention? Limiting personal freedom? How could I possibly restrict your personal freedom?"
"Aren’t you supposed to go to class without using your phone? Aren’t you supposed to study in the dorm without looking at your phone? I confiscated your phone to help you study better and to prevent you from unreasonably spreading more rumors. Spreading rumors carries criminal liability, Zhang Tao, I’m doing this for your own good," Guo Liangping hurriedly said.
How co it sounds so scary when Gu Chen says it?
Has this turned into illegal detention, limiting personal freedom?
Did he really go that far?
Wasn’t he just staying with Zhang Tao, monitoring all his actions, not allowing him to use his phone or interact with others?
Even having students follow Zhang Tao in class?
This can’t really count as illegal detention, right?
This is clearly caring for Zhang Tao!
Gu Chen said, "Your Honor, I object, the respondent has unjustly interrupted my client’s testimony."
Guo Liangping’s face turned pale.
Isn’t he just explaining?
Is this unjust interruption?
Why is Gu Chen even objecting?
As a respondent, can’t he even say a word to defend himself?
Your Honor Shen Jiarui: "Objection sustained, warning issued to the respondent."
Guo Liangping: "???"
No, was the objection really sustained?
Isn’t he allowed to explain?
All he did was offer so explanation!
Guo Liangping was already feeling a bit panicked inside.
Gu Chen really isn’t an easy opponent.
Just a few words, and he’s already been warned by Your Honor once.
Guo Liangping’s face was ashen as he looked at Zhang Tao and said nothing more.
Gu Chen asked, "Did Guo Liangping monitor you in the dorm, forbidding you to use your phone?"
Zhang Tao: "Yes, my classmates and friends couldn’t reach , nor was I allowed to contact other students."
Gu Chen continued to ask, "And how did you attend classes? Did you have freedom during class?"
Zhang Tao said, "No, when I went to class, four other classmates from the sa major went with , staying close, not allowing to use my phone, to speak with others, even following to the restroom. I was under such pressure; I couldn’t do anything. If it weren’t for a long holiday... I can’t imagine what could have happened. I was living in too much pain every day."
