Chapter 32 (I): We are good brothers!

In fact, as soon as Liang Guoming made his move, he had immediately regretted it. Although he had already previously greeted someone in the higher echelons, to make this much noise at the police station, moreover now that the President of Huading was also here as that youngster’s representative, it would be very troublesome for that person above if they didn’t handle this matter fairly.

Liang Guoming, who had to humble himself just now during his lunch with several other arrogant bosses, was already suppressing his anger from earlier. So as soon as he was provoked by Lu Chengyu’s words, he became angry as the wine fumed up to his head. Thus he acted faster than his brain could process, and the stool flew out like it did leading to Lu Chengyu’s face to be covered with blood. But once those reporters came out of nowhere, Liang Guoming had instantly sober up, and he knew in his heart that he was in trouble now.

The police reacted quickly and politely asked the several reporters to go back out. However, the two young girls, who were glaring at Liang Guoming, were still in the room.  After the policemen inquired about their intention, they found that they were witnesses to the earlier incident and had come to give their statements.

Before the two girls were able to open their mouths, Liang Guoming spoke first as he squeezed out a smile with embarrassment. “This… Mr. Lu, I have had too much wine today, I was confused. You shouldn’t have to lower yourself to my level. I’ll surely compensate for your injury. In this matter, I was wrong. As a bigger person, you are magnanimous, no need to lower yourself to the same level of an old fogey like me.”

Lu Chengyu originally only wanted to provoke Liang Guoming to scold him at the police station and didn’t expect that the man would actually make such a large commotion like this. But when Liang Guoming came closer towards him, he could smell the remaining scent of food and wine on the other’s body. It seemed that the other had come straight from a banquet in a hurry.

Recalling that Liang Shi Corporation was having difficulty getting back up after their fall due to the recent affair, Liang Guoming must have been running all over the place, flattering those in power. Yet his own good son still spared no effort to give him trouble, really such a good representative of a son pitting a father – surely even the Heavens would feel touched. Having heard Liang Guoming’s words, Lu Chengyu knew that the other side was finally sober and wanted to suppress this incident. He deliberately put on an appearance of having been frightened and took a step back, then covered his nose, lowered his head, and didn’t speak as if he had been scared silly by the other party.

The two girls thought scornfully: Wasn’t this just relying on being old to sell old [1], forcing Xiao Yu to forgive his arrogant behavior?

[1] 倚老卖老 [yǐ lǎo mài lǎo]: taking advantage of one’s seniority; capitalize on being advanced in age; 

“Relying on being old to sell old… Shameless!” A girl murmured, but the room full of policemen seemed to not have heard, and no one came out to stop her behavior.

The officers in the room scurried to fetch Lu Chengyu water and to hand him a towel, but the anger on their faces couldn’t be concealed. Although they were merely a very small police station, someone had dared to rampantly assault someone else in front of them! Moreover, reporters have captured the incident! It was doomed for this matter to be unable to end easily. Furthermore, if this wasn’t done well, all of them would suffer.

When the bureau chief heard that Liang Guoming had assaulted someone in the police station and that this matter was even witnessed by reporters, his breathing almost stopped. He rushed to the reception room and looked at several reporters invited there by his colleagues, then asked with a smile, “Didn’t everyone here say that they were witnesses? Then why were you guys still carrying filming equipment? This isn’t quite in accordance with the law…”

“The masses have the right to know the truth! If we didn’t come in today, who would believe… that someone would be able to use a stool to beat others inside a police station!” The reporter who answered then recalled the video that they had copied from the witnesses and somewhat angrily accused, “It was clearly the one who reported the crime who started things first. Why has he become the victim instead? Now Mr. Lu was even injured inside the police station with his face covered in blood. Could it be that you guys are colluding with the Liang family?!”

“How is that possible?!” The bureau chief’s attitude became extremely solemn and sonorously replied, “We have thoroughly investigated to understand this incident. That certain Mr. Liang, who made a report to the police, didn’t have any traces of injury on his body. Therefore, that matter would not constitute a crime of assault. As for the father of the person who made the report, who had committed a violent act inside the police station, we will certainly give you an account!” This was a matter of certainty. What’s more, comparing the Liang family with the power of the man behind Lu Chengyu, it was like the difference between an ant and an elephant. Even without having to think about it, he knew where he should stand.

Once the reporters saw that the bureau chief didn’t plan to cover this up for Young Master Liang, they immediately lost their interest in continuing to question him. They were all ready to go back to rush the manuscript, so they could send out this piece of news. After all, even if the police department were to handle this matter impartially, this incident of Liang’s father and son beating people up was a big story. What’s more, Male God Lu had been famous online recently, so there was no worry that it won’t become a hot topic.

As soon as the reporters left the police station, they sent this news to their editors-in-chief, while some internet media also posted the videos taken by the witnesses during the incident. So everything quickly exploded, almost like water beads falling into a pan of hot oil.

The video started with Lu Chengyu talking with two middle-aged men by the roadside. Although the image was fuzzy, it could be seen that the three were chatting happily. Then, a Porsche came and parked in front of the three people. As soon as Young Master Liang showed his face from inside the car, his despondence could be felt through the screen.

Thanks to the witness’s phone’s high definition camera, the entire video was very clear.

Next, they saw Young Master Liang rush out with his fist raised to fight Lu Chengyu. Lu Chengyu obviously took a step back, but it could be clearly seen that Young Master Liang still insisted on attacking him. Then, Young Master Liang was kicked by the other side. From the video, the kick did not seem to be heavy, instead, it seemed more like self-defense.

The video shook a few times as if the witness who was filming saw that the matter was going to blow up so they went closer up. Finally, everyone could clearly hear Young Master Liang cursing at Lu Chengyu.

“If you have no father, no mother, and no education, then it seems you can only mix with these kinds of people. I bah!”

Hearing this, a lot of people’s anger was ignited. It was disgusting to talk about people whose parents are no longer around.

However, the male-god-of-Q-University, man-with-360-degrees-of-handsomeness, no longer have a father or mother?

The reason why people were considered humans was that they had their own moral values and have feelings that other animals didn’t have. Therefore, many people would support just behavior, would be angry at injustice, and would sympathize with the unfortunate. Although some people may be indifferent or would say that they were not the holy mother, in fact, such people would still subconsciously stand on the side with reason, because this was the nature of normal people.

Therefore, when the video surfaced, the public opinion stood on the side of Lu Chengyu while the Liang family once again stood in the middle of a storm.

Thus, once the pictures where Liang Guoming had beaten Lu Chengyu until his whole face was covered with blood was revealed by the media on the internet as well, the whole online community exploded again. Your mother–! Your side punched first and even called the police to arrest him, yet now, unexpectedly, both father and son are joining hands to beat the hardworking young man who doesn’t have a father or mother like this?! Wasn’t this too amazingly shameless?!

And once some of those people online, who had already been fond of Lu Chengyu saw this news, one-by-one, almost all of them incarnated into fighting gods. Various people anonymously posted Lu Chengyu’s awards from childhood to adulthood, the various competitions he had participated in, the various elected positions he held during university, his speeches on behalf of Q university graduates, and various other impressive achievements. Some had even attached pictures to prove their authenticity.

As soon as these things came out, it immediately stunned the whole group of people to jaw drop.

This kind of person was simply an academic tyrant of his generation! From his childhood till now, he was an excellent student who was liked by teachers, yet he also wasn’t a boring nerd. This was the legendary life winner! This was simply against the Heavens!

On a certain forum, a self-proclaimed old neighbor of Lu Chengyu appeared. He commented on how polite Lu Chengyu was when he was a child and how his parents were cultured people. He also mentioned how Lu Chengyu had always been “that other family’s child” since he was a kid. The parents of their entire building loved to use Lu Chengyu as an example in front of their children. Later, Lu Chengyu’s parents bought a house in a new community. As a result, just as they had finished the renovations, before they could even move in, they passed away from an accident.

As a result, netizens now knew that Lu Chengyu grew up in a well-educated, happy, and peaceful family environment. He was even “that other family’s child.” While at other times, people might joke and say that they hate this kind of a person the most, but at this moment, they only felt sympathy. After all, he had so suddenly lost his happy family. What kind of pain did Lu Chengyu, who was still a student at that time, go through? Yet Liang Deyou still cursed the other using this pain, just how bad was his character?

Some people took screenshots of the frame-by-frame of the video after Liang Deyou cursed Lu Chengyu for having no father or mother, and they could clearly see that the expression on Lu Chengyu’s face was like a little duckling who just had a basin of ice water poured over it. He seemed to be in such a difficult position that it made others feel distressed for him.
