Ten thousand yuan isn’t really a large sum for Jiang Hai, but it’s enough to teach him a lesson.
The police officers, seeing that the matter was almost settled, produced a mediation agreement for the two to sign.
The agreement also detailed the compensation.
Jiang Hai could only grit his teeth and sign it.
Signing it meant there was no way he could renege on the payment.
He felt as if his heart was bleeding.
Not because of the money, but because he felt like he had suffered a double loss.
After the clarification post was made public, Yue Qingqing’s reputation was restored, and the student council would no longer be able to post similar messages on the forum.
In addition to this, he still had to pay the sum of money.
Seeing Jiang Hai’s dark expression, Yue Qingqing sighed softly.
"Though Brother Jiang lost ten thousand yuan, I lost more than half a day of my time."
Yes, more than half a day spent to earn ten thousand yuan.
Jiang Hai truly felt a blockage in his chest, gritting his back teeth hard.
Several police officers nearby couldn’t help but want to laugh.
Such an unmerciful strike to the heart, this girl was really something.
After everything was settled, Yue Qingqing politely thanked the officers and offered to treat them to a meal.
The police officers waved it off, "No need, it’s against regulations, and this case has also served as an example for us. We now know how to handle similar situations online in the future."
They planned to go back and write a report to send up.
It was hoped that a policy would soon be established so that such incidents could be handled uniformly in the future.
Yue Qingqing left Jiang Hai a bank account number, "By Friday, please, Brother Jiang."
The false façade on Jiang Hai’s face was gone; he stared at Yue Qingqing with hatred.
"You sure have skills, little sister."
Yue Qingqing flashed a brilliant smile at him.
The smile was dazzling and radiant like a blooming neon.
Jiang Hai couldn’t help but be stunned.
Then he heard Yue Qingqing enunciate each word clearly: "Please convey to Sister Yu that if there’s any issue, let’s resolve it openly. If she uses such malicious tactics, she may harm herself."
Jiang Hai snapped out of his daze, his pupils contracting.
"How did you know..."
Yu Mengyu had never shown up from the start, and the two had almost no interaction since Yue Qingqing entered the school.
How could Yue Qingqing be so sure it was Yu Mengyu?
Yue Qingqing didn’t answer, treating Jiang Hai as a mere mouthpiece.
She turned and left the office.
Watching Yue Qingqing’s departing silhouette, Jiang Hai called Yu Mengyu.
"I didn’t expect Yue Qingqing to report to the police directly, and through Lun Kun, they found me."
Jiang Hai briefly recounted the incident.
There was silence on the other end for a while.
Jiang Hai felt a little uneasy, "Mengyu, I admit I didn’t handle this well. I’ve never encountered someone reporting to the police directly before, and I didn’t know how she found Lun Kun. It linked together so quickly I didn’t have time to react."
Yu Mengyu still didn’t speak.
Jiang Hai felt his heart beating irregularly, increasing his fear.
Yu Mengyu could become the student council president not only because of her abilities and her family’s background.
More importantly, she was unfathomable.
People who had offended her always ended up in trouble mysteriously, with some being schemed against.
Some had inexplicable mental breakdowns, making everything sound incredible.
Jiang Hai’s family background wasn’t much different from hers, but due to the mysterious and eerie occurrences, he always felt inferior in front of Yu Mengyu.
He had a certain level of fear of her.
The eerie silence stretched until Yu Mengyu’s voice finally came through the phone.
"I understand, I’ll transfer the money to you."
Jiang Hai responded quickly, "It’s not much money, I can cover it."
"No, I must pay this money," Yu Mengyu’s words carried an ominous undertone, "This is the karma between Yue Qingqing and me."
