The male supporting character was actually myself.

Now the story has spread across the internet, and Yu Chuchu even reported it to the police. The police asked the relevant departments of the school to cooperate with the investigation, and since they could no longer try to delete the post, they had to temporarily close the thread and disable comments.

"Did you see the forum? It's gotten to the point where the police are calling!"

"I just read the statement released by the school. It says that Teacher Yu has sued the person who posted the photos anonymously on the forum for defamation and infringement of portrait rights, as well as for the rumors that falsely accused him of having an affair. The school is cooperating with the investigation of the anonymous ID and is looking for the person who started the rumors."

"Tch! She still has the nerve to sue? I wonder who got caught flirting with a man. This is just to clear Teacher Dong's name."

"Damn it! I never knew you had such warped values ​​and couldn't distinguish right from wrong. Let's break off our friendship. I don't want to be friends with someone who supports the evil PUA, lest I get killed without even knowing it!"

"That scumbag Dong still has a clean record? He was the one who pressured me first, wasn't he?"

"Exactly! Teacher Yu didn't want anything, she didn't want to marry him, and there wasn't even a proper wedding. And they still treated her like that. If I were in their shoes, I would have run away too!"

"No matter what the other person does, if they're still married and have an affair, it's considered cheating!"

"Blame the bizarre and damned XX law! Put yourself in their shoes: you were tricked into getting a marriage certificate, and then you were subjected to all sorts of PUA-like exploitation and bullying. And because the other party has a law master's degree and leaves no trace, you can't get any evidence to file for divorce."

Are you willing to waste your precious youth?

I'm not willing to accept this! They don't have any shared assets, and now that I've met someone suitable, I'm definitely going to seize the opportunity. I wanted a divorce from the start, but that scumbag Dong wouldn't let go, so let's make him a cuckold! Let's see who can outlast whom!

"Damn! Does that mean we're just going to give up and do whatever we want anyway?"

"But it is a solution. If I really put myself in Teacher Yu's shoes, there really is no other way. She can't get a divorce; she can't go home; and her wicked mother-in-law and scumbag husband are spreading rumors that she is cheating on him. Where can she go for justice?"

"So, to make the best of a mistake, why not just cuckold him?"

"Staying single and childless ensures peace of mind..."

…………

Dong Muqian walked through the chattering crowd under the flowering trees, receiving many complicated glances from people along the way. Some were frightened, some surprised, some gloating, and some disgusted... Every time he reached a place, the people who were gathered together and whispering would stop and look at him, as if they were visiting a living exhibit.

This feeling made him very unhappy.

It's all that damned Yu Chuchu and that guy who recorded it! He glared back at them one by one, thinking viciously to himself, "These troublemakers have ruined my perfectly good life!"

Fortunately, a classmate stepped in and captured solid evidence to refute Yu Chuchu's claims, and her reputation has begun to slowly recover. The next step is to find a way to fabricate a false statement explaining that the recording was deliberately created using software, and then all the problems will be solved…

And I just happened to think of this connection!

One of the mothers of the children who came for in-home tutoring was a mid-level manager at Lingnan Radio. She asked the mother to play the victim and ask for help in finding a professional technician. She didn't care about spending more money as long as the technician could write an analysis article implying that the audio was fake. That would solve everything.

Anyway, all this commotion has caused quite a stir, but Yu Chuchu can't withstand scrutiny. So even if she walks right into the trap by reporting it to the police, whether it's exposing someone or slandering them, it has nothing to do with her.

First of all, it was indeed her affair that started it all. Flirting with a strange man would inevitably arouse her husband's suspicions, so her mother's exaggerated claims to everyone she met were not unfounded.

Secondly, even if Yu Chuchu could provide evidence to prove she didn't cheat, and a defamation lawsuit was filed and investigated, the audio recording couldn't be used as evidence, and she hadn't publicly accused Yu Chuchu of having an affair. The ones spreading the 'rumors' were her over-sixty-year-old mother and a group of elderly people who believed everything they heard and readily shared the information.

Finally, it was revealed that the person who anonymously leaked the photos was not himself.

Moreover, there are emails from the other party in the inbox as evidence. If the police investigate further, they will at most arrest the person who secretly took the photos and anonymously uploaded them to the forum. Defamation and infringement of portrait rights are minor issues. At worst, they can apologize and pay a thousand or two in compensation. As long as they have a good attitude, given Yu Chuchu's soft-hearted nature, the other party won't even need to be detained.

Therefore, at this stage, I must establish an innocent persona—that I have been framed and slandered by others! I am innocent!

On the contrary, I am the victim.

He brought his elderly mother to live in the city out of filial piety, but she is old and her memory is declining, so she can't adapt to city life for a while. She brought her bad habits from rural life with her, which is a bit of a bother to others.

He was framed by a malicious person who forged an audio recording!

City dwellers look down on country people and discriminate against farmers!

His newlywed wife was also materialistic and cheated on him by meeting someone she met online! He was magnanimous and forgave her, saying he would welcome her back to his warm family as long as she could change her ways and he would try to reform her with love...

As Dong Muqian walked, he mentally sorted out the persona he needed to establish and the sob story he needed to play.

I happen to have two classes in the morning, so I must use myself as an example to explain some knowledge points in class, and incidentally hint to the students about the "insider truth" of things such as audio fraud, creating class antagonism and despising the poor, gender antagonism, someone deliberately smearing me to steal a doctoral spot, and my wife's infidelity.

First, I'll send out some vague information so that once the audio article is done, I can immediately occupy the moral high ground!

To put it bluntly, there's no concrete evidence for anything; it's just a war of words, a test of who can create a persona and who can play the victim.

My current focus must be on filial piety, because filial piety brought my elderly mother from the harsh conditions of the countryside to the city; and filial piety can only be achieved by patiently guiding my elderly mother and teaching her to get used to city life, which naturally takes time.

The people who fabricated the audio are despicable; they have no tolerance whatsoever.

It's utterly despicable and arrogant to fabricate and slander someone just because of some minor setbacks in life! Fortunately, I'm magnanimous. Once everyone knows the truth and understands my innocence, they won't pursue this matter any further.

On the contrary, because he deeply loves his wife and wants to comfort and influence her to see her way back from her misguided ways, he asks everyone to let things go and not pay any more attention to or disturb their peaceful life.

Dong Muqian firmly believes that by deliberately inciting class antagonism and framing the whistleblower as someone who looks down on the poor, even if the whistleblower has genuine audio recordings, he wouldn't dare to have them verified by the authorities when the propaganda war reaches its peak!

After all, the leaks were all anonymous.

Who would risk losing their job and completely break off relations for someone else's private affairs just to confirm a meaningless conversation for Yu Chuchu, who was having an affair?

Chapter Twenty-Three is fucking exciting!

This is how Dong Muqian planned and how he acted.

He got up early to contact the parents of the tutoring students, and successfully added the contact information of the professional technicians after the first class.

The students who attended his classes also received firsthand "insider information." Although the teacher only hinted at things and did not speak very directly, they were still able to deduce the shocking inside story from his ambiguous words!

The audio is fake!

Just because Teacher Dong is too outstanding and has no background, someone wanted to take his spot and, along with others, considered themselves superior and looked down on the old lady from the countryside. They exaggerated her thrifty and frugal qualities and directly smeared her.

Teacher Dong's mother had a difficult life, having a son in middle age and raising him with great hardship.

Is there a problem with someone just wanting to fulfill their filial duty?

The old lady from the countryside has never been to a big city and doesn't understand the complicated and confusing rules. Can't we be a little more tolerant? Besides, Teacher Dong has already been persuading her mother to change her bad habits like spitting everywhere. Can't we give the old lady a little more time to be understanding?

If you go back three generations, whose family didn't come from the countryside? They're living in staff dormitories and they're acting like they're superior!

The fabricated audio smeared Teacher Dong, portraying him as a master of PUA who exploits women, while also subtly implying that he was giving illegal tutoring.

What about the evidence?

If you're so capable, release the evidence and let the school punish him.

Without any evidence, someone posted an anonymous thread and released a fake audio recording to smear and ruin the reputation of an innocent person over a trivial matter. It's truly unbelievable how human nature can be so easily exposed!

As for Teacher Yu, he's even more detestable.

Did you just find out today that Teacher Dong's family is poor? We knew before the marriage, no one forced you to marry her, and now you're complaining about this and that after the wedding.

They can't reach the level of wealthy people, yet they still crave a comfortable life.

She acts one way in front of people and another way behind their backs, taking advantage of being a woman and having bizarre laws to justify her feminist activism. After bullying her mother-in-law, she bullies her husband, and now she's gone even further, flirting with netizens and showing no shame whatsoever!

How could such a despicable woman be a teacher?

Thank goodness I didn't attend her class, otherwise my values ​​would have been completely skewed! We must unite to boycott Yu Chuchu, who has questionable character, and make her get out of Lingnan University!

[Hearing the truth made my blood pressure soar! The inside story of the smear campaign against Teacher Dong is truly terrifying!]

[We strongly urge the relevant authorities to intervene and find out who created the fake audio!]

[The misuse of high-tech methods should not allow good people to be arbitrarily smeared!]

[Yu Chuchu, a hypocritical and morally corrupt gold digger, please get out of Lingnan University...]

…………

In a short time, a large number of students posted on the forum to whitewash Dong Muqian, with various conspiracy theories, predictions, and defenses, making this war of public opinion even more unpredictable.

So when Yu Chuchu, with her completely transformed image, went to class in the afternoon, the large classroom was packed with people. She had never encountered so many people in her teaching career; clearly, besides her own students, many were there to audit the class and watch the spectacle.

Fortunately, she gained a lot from her morning consultation with the psychologist.

The experiences of the past two days have also helped this resilient girl grow rapidly, becoming more mature and stronger.

"Sure enough, it's only been two days since I last saw him over the weekend, and he's like a completely different person! How could something not have happened?"

"To be honest, Teacher Yu was already a great beauty even without makeup and dressed simply before, and now she's even more beautiful, no less so than a big star!"

"If I could marry such a beautiful wife, I would definitely cherish her and buy her the most beautiful clothes and the best cosmetics. Even if I just sit at home and do nothing, it would be a pleasure to look at her."

"Teacher Yu is so beautiful! It's such a pity we didn't even have a wedding photo taken. Just imagine how beautiful she would have been!"

"She's beautiful, but her heart is black; she's ruined that face!"

"Teacher Dong already subtly and overtly refuted the rumors during her lecture this morning. I want to see how this shameless woman will defend herself."

"Wait and see how things develop, and don't let yourself be used as a pawn by either side."

"Seriously, we're all college students, okay? Why are you taking sides so easily? Be careful you don't get slapped in the face later!"

"Holy crap! Who are those two? They look like bodyguards..."

…………

Fortunately, although there were many people, the college students still maintained basic manners. The hushed discussions gradually quieted down after Yu Chuchu walked to the podium and looked around.

At this moment, she was wearing a white, well-tailored, and exquisitely designed long dress. Her new hairstyle, which was cut slightly shorter, made her look exceptionally energetic, and her oval face, with its light makeup, was comparable to that of a female celebrity!

A smart and capable female bodyguard in uniform stood not far behind him;

Another burly bodyguard stood at a standard military posture below the podium, seemingly worried that someone might rush onto the podium and cause trouble.

"Classmates," Yu Chuchu's voice was as gentle and pleasant as ever. She looked around and said, "I'm sorry, some things have happened these past two days and I haven't been able to resolve them yet. To protect my own safety, I have to temporarily hire a bodyguard to accompany me to class."

They are professional bodyguards appointed by Yuanda Law Firm. They are not only temporarily responsible for security matters, but will also conduct necessary legal evidence gathering regarding the recent online defamation and hype.

I promise that I will try my best not to let personal matters affect everyone's learning process.

One more thing—I've already reported the online defamation and attacks to the police. I believe the police will find out the truth, clear my name, and never let the perpetrators of this slander and mudslinging get away with it!

Next, we'll begin class. After today's lesson, I'd like to share my experience from this morning's consultation with a psychologist, using myself as an example, and frankly discuss how to identify and refuse to be manipulated by those around you through psychological manipulation.

After a brief explanation, Yu Chuchu began her lesson without any personal bias.

After the class ended, many people who had come "by reputation" hoping to find material to criticize Yu Chuchu on the forum quieted down.

After all, her professional level is evident, and her teaching quality is indeed very high. In addition, after the lecture, she did not make any overt or covert personal attacks on anyone, nor did she make any veiled accusations.

He simply started by recounting his own childhood experiences, analyzing the impact of the living environment on a person's mental health.

Until the very end, Yu Chuchu kept reminding all students, regardless of gender, to objectively analyze whether the actions of those who claim to be "doing it for your own good" have made you more outstanding, confident, and happy, and whether you can gain positive benefits from them, so as to judge whether the other party is truly "doing it for your own good" or trying to make you emotionally dependent on them...

What she said was irrefutable, and it was impossible for her to record it and put it online to prove the rumors. Therefore, many people who came to audit the class with other ideas were quite disappointed.

"Are you Ms. Yu Chuchu?"
