Yang Rui: "Why do you ask that? Liang Shuang scratched his car, and he sued Liang Shuang. Although it seems petty and narrow-minded, it has nothing to do with me. Why do you insist on asking me what I said?"

Li Mu: "I won't comment on Chen Zhuo's magnanimity. Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't sue to avoid making a big fuss, even if Liang Shuang scratched his car, because he was afraid you would know about Liang Shuang's existence."

"Now that they've filed a lawsuit, things must have changed, and it can only be related to you."

Yang Rui smiled and said, "I can't hide it from you. After you left yesterday, I met with Chen Zhuo and told him about a girl named Liang Shuang who came to see me. I also told him to be careful of scumbags."

Li Mu: "Haven't you been pretending not to know about this all along? If you don't tell him, Liang Shuang won't tell him, and he can't possibly know that Liang Shuang contacted you. He'll still think that your image in his heart is intact, and with this filter between you, life will be better and easier from now on."

Yang Rui: "I didn't think that much about it. I originally planned to keep it from him and pretend I didn't know anything. But after seeing him, I suddenly didn't want to hide it anymore."

"It wouldn't be bad to take this opportunity to test him and see how he reacts."

Li Mu: "How did he explain it?"

Yang Rui: "How else can we explain it? That he and Liang Shuang have no relationship, but Liang Shuang saw that he was a rich second-generation and shamelessly insisted on getting close to him."

"After being rejected by him, Liang Shuang became angry and embarrassed. She found out about me and deliberately came to sow discord."

Li Mu: "That's a good reason!"

Yang Rui sent a smiley face: "Not bad, right!"

"However, the explanation is reasonable enough, and it can usually be used to fool people."

Li Mu: "And you! Did you believe it?"

Yang Rui: "Of course I chose to believe him. I already know the facts, and believing him will put his mind at ease, so why tear off the pretense? It would be good if he felt a little guilty and restrained himself a bit in the future."

Li Mu: "You're quite insightful. But it's also clear that Chen Zhuo values ​​you a lot."

Yang Rui: "Why do you say that?"

Li Mu: "After learning that Liang Shuang had contacted you, he was so angry that he immediately sued Liang Shuang. He didn't hesitate to lie in order to maintain a good image in front of you. If he didn't value you, he wouldn't be so angry and so serious."

Yang Rui smiled and said, "He lied to me because he values ​​me. The world is truly amazing."

Li Mu: "This is not bad, is it? If one day you're too lazy to even tell a lie, then there will be a big problem."

Yang Rui: "Yes! So I gave him face and didn't tear down this pretense."

"Should I speak with Chen Zhuo about Liang Shuang's matter?"

Li Mu: "No need, he's too busy trying to keep it from you! Telling him might scare him."

"Liang Shuang has a sharp tongue and a bad temper. She's quite the bully in the dorm. It wouldn't hurt to teach her a lesson and teach her to behave herself."

Yang Rui: "Okay! This girl's temper and personality are indeed not very good. If she doesn't change, she will suffer in the future."

Li Mu: "Alright, that's enough for now, get back to work!"

Yang Rui: "Okay!"

After the chat ended, Li Mu casually thought about it; the way things had unfolded was quite interesting. In the original storyline, Yang Rui pretended not to know about Liang Shuang's existence, so naturally, Chen Zhuo wasn't provoked into suing Liang Shuang.

He didn't intend to get involved in this matter; he wanted Liang Shuang to handle it herself.

I wonder if this incident will help her temper and her bad temper to improve. Otherwise, she'll just have to suffer more.

Chapter 317 Negotiation and Reconciliation

The next day, Liang Shuang rushed to the court but did not see Chen Zhuo; instead, his lawyer appeared.

Led by court staff, the two parties arrived at a mediation room next door.

As soon as Liang Shuang sat down, she couldn't help but say angrily, "Where's Chen Zhuo! Why didn't he come? Let him come by himself, and I'll ask him what right he has to sue me!"

The lawyer smiled and said, "Ms. Liang, my client, Mr. Chen, has other matters to attend to and has entrusted me with handling this matter. I apologize."

Luo Yan said angrily, "He's not busy with something, I think he's too ashamed to come."

The lawyer said, "We won't discuss that. My client really doesn't have time to come forward. I'd like to ask Ms. Liang Shuang, before you broke up, did you scratch Mr. Chen Zhuo's car with your diamond ring?"

Liang Shuang angrily retorted, "I scratched it! So what if I scratched it! He deserved it! How dare such scum sue me? Does he even have the nerve to do that?"

The lawyer smiled awkwardly and said, "Ms. Liang, let's not discuss my client's situation. Let's discuss the car vandalism incident and the legal issues."

Liang Shuang snorted: "Why not discuss it? If he wasn't two-timing, if he wasn't a scumbag who played with other people's feelings, if he didn't lie to me, why would I scratch his car?"

"These two things are causally related, how can you say they're unrelated!"

Then he turned to the court staff next to him and asked, "Young man, don't you think this scumbag who deceives other people's feelings should be punished?"

The court mediator wasn't very old, and being called "little brother" by such a beautiful woman like Liang Shuang, who was also staring at him with bright, sparkling eyes, made him a little flustered.

"Yes, yes, what he did was wrong and he should be condemned."

Seeing that the question had gone astray, the lawyer interjected, "My client's behavior may not be entirely ethical, but it hasn't broken the law, has it?"

This was said to the court staff, so that if they saw that the woman was pretty and called her "little brother" a couple of times, it would influence how the matter was handled.

The court staff nodded, their thoughts brought back to the present: "Yes, Mr. Chen's actions were immoral, but not illegal."

Liang Shuang glared at the lawyer: "I've already scratched the car, so what do you want to do next? Just tell me!"

The lawyer smiled and said, "It's not about what I should do, but about letting the law decide and seeing how the judge rules!"

Liang Shuang said, "Since you want to go to court, why did you pretend to accept mediation just now? Do you think I'm afraid of going to court?"

The lawyer smiled and said, "I am just protecting the legitimate rights and interests of my client. Whether to go to court or settle depends on my client's attitude."

"If he's satisfied, things will be much easier to resolve."

Liang Shuang sneered, "He's satisfied, but I'm not! What does he want?"

The lawyer said, "My client needs you to personally apologize to him and compensate him for his losses."

"Of course, Mr. Chen also said that if he is satisfied with your apology, he may withdraw the lawsuit directly, or even not seek compensation."

"That depends on what you do, Miss Liang."

Liang Shuangqi laughed.

"I apologize to him, and I want him to be satisfied. How can I make him satisfied? Is it by sleeping with him, obediently going back to his side, and satisfying his filthy desires?"

"That scumbag, he really has a dream come true, and he actually dares to mention it?"

The lawyer said awkwardly, "This? I didn't say that. The specifics are between you and Mr. Chen, and are not within the scope of this discussion. As long as Mr. Chen agrees to withdraw the lawsuit, the matter will be resolved naturally."

Liang Shuang retorted angrily, "He wants me to apologize to satisfy his filthy desires? He really dares to dream! Let's go to court then, do you think I'm afraid of him!"

The lawyer said, "Ms. Liang, doing this will not have a good impact on you."

Liang Shuang said, "It's bad for me, but it's good for Chen Zhuo. I'm just an ordinary student, so what if it has a bad influence?"

"Chen Zhuo is a rich second-generation heir with some money in his family. His parents have businesses in the local area, and he has many acquaintances and relatives here."

"Besides, he's engaged, and his fiancée's family is well-off. He has always maintained a humble and low-key image, and has a good reputation."

"Let him sue if he wants! The bigger the fuss, the better. Let everyone know that he's a two-timing scumbag, and see how he can maintain his good image."

"Oh! By the way, his fiancée, Miss Yang, has been kept in the dark all along. She doesn't know anything about this and has always thought he was such a good and devoted man."

"It's good that things have blown up. It's best if everyone knows about it, and we'll see how his fiancée reacts."

The lawyer's expression changed: "Ms. Liang, doing this is not good for you either. Even if it is confirmed that Mr. Chen has a fiancée and that his relationship with you is ambiguous, have you not considered your own situation?"

"You're still in college, haven't graduated yet, and you've already been branded as a mistress. What are you going to do about your future? How will the school handle this?"

Liang Shuang's gaze sharpened, then she said coldly, "Are you threatening me?"

The lawyer said, "I'm not threatening you, I'm just stating the facts. If it really comes to that, Ms. Liang, your reputation will be ruined, and the stigma of being a mistress is hard to shake off."

Liang Shuang was silent for a moment, then suddenly looked up and said, "I won't trouble you with this. It's just a reputation, isn't it? I don't want it, and I don't care."

"If my reputation isn't good, how good can Chen Zhuo's reputation as a scumbag be? Will he still have a good image among his relatives and friends? Won't his relationship with his fiancée be affected?"

“Furthermore, if the public opinion impact is significant enough, will his fiancée and her family still agree to marry him? Will they be afraid of losing face and breaking off the engagement?”

“He’s a rich kid and he’s not afraid of losing face, so what am I, an ordinary person, afraid of? When will someone who has nothing to lose be afraid of someone who has something to lose?”

The lawyer was speechless after hearing her words. As the legal advisor hired by Chen Zhuo's company, the lawyer understood Chen Zhuo's situation and his concerns.

Chen Zhuo's purpose in filing this lawsuit is to vent his anger, and possibly even to bring Liang Shuang back to his side, albeit privately as a mistress.

He didn't comment on Chen Zhuo's behavior and intentions. He believed that if you take someone's money and eat their food, you should do things for them. In reality, there aren't that many lawyers with a strong sense of justice.

Since the goal is to vent one's anger, escalate the situation, or even cause mutual destruction, it certainly does not align with Chen Zhuo's objective.

With that in mind, the lawyer played another card.

“Ms. Liang, you may not have a clear understanding of the seriousness of this matter.”

"Let me tell you, Mr. Chen's car is a brand new car that he just bought recently, and it's worth nearly two million."

"According to the law, scratching a car is considered intentional damage to another person's property, which is also illegal. If the value of the damage exceeds 5000 yuan, it constitutes the crime of intentional damage to property."

"Did you know that 5,000 yuan already constitutes a crime? According to the law, intentionally damaging public or private property, where the amount is relatively large or there are other serious circumstances, will be punished with imprisonment of up to three years, detention, or a fine; where the amount is huge or there are other particularly serious circumstances, will be punished with imprisonment of three to seven years."

"Although your condition is mild, the outcome is still uncertain."

Liang Shuang said coldly, "You're threatening me? Do you think I don't understand the law?"

"Although scratching a car is illegal and constitutes damage to other people's property, if the scratches are only minor and do not affect normal use or cause any danger, they are not considered a crime."

"I only scratched the car a few times. Did that affect its normal use? Did it cause any danger? Did it damage the car? Which eye of yours saw me commit a crime?"
