Qian Qianqian’s eyes sparkled. Her idol was truly incredible!
It had pinned Liu Chunya down!
"Pfft, Liu Chunya, didn’t you just say you wouldn’t admit it? Now, at the Police Station, you’re admitting you stole the admission notice after all?" Qian Qianqian mocked triumphantly.
Liu Chunya seemed dejected for a moment, but she quickly recovered and lifted her chin, "Yes, I stole her admission notice. So what? It’s just a piece of paper! All this talk about dreams!"
"Can the law imprison me?"
At this point, Liu Chunya actually seemed somewhat proud and continued, "I’m at least a high school graduate. Do you think I don’t understand the law?"
There’s a saying, it’s not the bad people who are scary, but the educated bad ones.
Xia Chuyi, for the first time, deeply understood.
However, she sneered, "Liu Chunya, you’re over eighteen, right? The admission notice is just a paper, indeed, but even in your hands, who deems it worthless, it still fetched ten yuan."
"So, Officer, Liu Chunya, that qualifies as a crime, right?"
"You!" Upon hearing this, Liu Chunya immediately panicked and shouted, "Ten yuan, if I give it back to you, won’t that settle it! Ten won’t do, how about a hundred, can I give you a hundred? Two hundred?"
Xia Chuyi couldn’t be bothered to listen to her plea and glanced at Chang Luhui.
Chang Luhui nodded, signaling his subordinates to take her away, "Inform her parents."
Hearing this, Liu Chunya became even more hysterical, but in the end, she was taken away.
It wasn’t until the lobby quieted down that Chang Luhui ordered someone to make a record, and Xia Chuyi shook her head, "No need. Liu Chunya mentioned compensation, didn’t she? I’ll accept her compensation; have her parents pay me one hundred yuan, and we’ll settle it ."
"What?" Chang Luhui was shocked.
Had she not just been adamant about severe punishment?
Xia Chuyi smiled faintly.
It wasn’t that she was being merciful, but rather she remembered that the crackdown order from above was about to come down.
If Liu Chunya were locked up now, it might coincide with the crackdown and get her ten or twenty years, or even the death penalty.
"Alright." Since Xia Chuyi, the party involved, didn’t mind, Chang Luhui had nothing further to say.
A settlement agreement was drafted by Xia Chuyi in advance, and after leaving the follow-up matters to Chang Luhui to handle, she left first.
On the way, Xia Chuyi asked Qian Qianqian, "Qianqian, do you think I handled this correctly?"
Qian Qianqian, asked her opinion, pondered seriously for a moment and replied, "Honestly, I think it’s pretty good."
"Chuyi, look, this is how I see it: if Liu Chunya had taken the admission notice and you had been unable to go to college, regretting it for your whole life, then in anyone’s eyes, she would deserve to be punished."
"But now, you mentioned it won’t affect your college... If she gets imprisoned because of this, everyone would eventually say you’re unreasonably harsh and lack magnanimity!"
"Besides, she wouldn’t be sentenced for long!"
At that, Qian Qianqian pursed her lips and continued, "Then rather take the opportunity to hit her hard!"
"Now about that, Chuyi, I think you asked too little. You don’t know how wealthy and nouveau riche Liu Chunya is! You could have demanded a thousand from her!"
Hearing this, Xia Chuyi burst out laughing and said, "I should have demanded more."
"That’s why I didn’t specify a number in the amount section of the settlement agreement."
"I guess, Director Chang will surely negotiate to a higher number than I mentioned."
Qian Qianqian, hearing this, slapped her forehead, "Really? Well, that’s great! Hahaha, once again, you’re the smart one, idol!"
