Chapter 387 A Life of Being Conquered
The news about the collision between two cars that resulted in the death of a heart patient actually had little to do with Yu Liu, since she wasn't driving at the time, but she was still implicated.
It was because she was sitting in a car that had stopped in the middle of the road when the light turned green but hadn't moved.
This would be bad luck for anyone. Originally, both parties were responsible for the accident, and most of the responsibility should have been borne by the taxi driver. However, the taxi driver was speeding because he had a reason to do so. There were people in his car who urgently needed medical treatment and had to be taken to the hospital as soon as possible.
With a legitimate reason for speeding on one side, and Yu Liu and her group blocking the road on the other, they became the ones primarily responsible for the accident.
Furthermore, because of the deceased's boyfriend's inflammatory remarks online, netizens have labeled the incident as Yu Liu's responsibility. They believe the taxi driver was a good young man who acted bravely and righteously, and that he bears no responsibility and should be praised. On the other hand, most netizens support Yu Liu being punished according to the law for the people in the car.
To put it bluntly, netizens online have been incited to pin the blame for the death on Yu Liu and her family. They believe that murder should be punished with death, and in a society governed by the rule of law, murder leads to imprisonment. They think both Liu Quji's father and Yu Liu, who were hit by the car, should receive appropriate punishment.
As the situation escalated, before the police could even determine the nature of the incident, netizens seemed to have already accepted the outcome and began relentlessly doxxing Yu Liu online. Even worse, some people revealed Yu Liu's identity as a cartoonist online. Suddenly, the comics Yu Liu had painstakingly created were bombarded with negative reviews, all filled with insults. This led unsuspecting readers to boycott the comics, and within two days, Yu Liu's hard work was taken down from the website.
This whole mess has left Yu Liu utterly helpless.
"Don't worry, this has nothing to do with you."
For the past two days, Tang Shuai has been staying with Yu Liu, afraid that she would collapse because of the overwhelming online criticism and the comic strip incident. In addition, he also wanted to take this opportunity to increase his favorability, so they didn't go anywhere.
"I know." Yu Liu smiled indifferently: "You've said that so many times."
For some reason, Yu Liu remained calm in the face of everyone's insults. She felt that this scene was familiar, but she couldn't remember why.
Could it be that I've experienced something like this before?
But if there's no problem with my memory, this scene doesn't exist in my memory at all!
Yu Liu couldn't figure it out, so she simply stopped thinking about it.
"I'm not that fragile. This won't affect me." Yu Liu was telling the truth. She didn't know whether she was fragile or not, but this matter wouldn't affect her.
"Okay, I was worried about you too." Tang Shuai was not discouraged and still smiled gently.
Because of Yu Liu's ruined reputation, her family's businesses have also faced resistance. These past two days, Yu Liu's adoptive parents have been busy dealing with company matters, giving her a rare moment of peace.
Liu Quji was also busy, trying to clarify the matter. His father was a driver, and although much of the criticism was directed at him and Yu Liu, he still bore the brunt of the attack.
No matter how bad Liu Quji was, there was one thing he definitely did well: he was filial. The father and son had a very good relationship; otherwise, his father wouldn't have gone to pick up Yu Liu in place of the driver.
I never expected this to happen.
What's done is done, there's no way to stop it, now we need to think about how to make amends.
He wouldn't allow his father to suffer such infamy in his old age. The murder had nothing to do with his father. The man already had a heart condition, and it had already flared up. He had already asked the hospital, and even without the car accident, it was uncertain whether the man's heart condition would have survived. In other words, the man could have died regardless of what happened; the car accident simply brought that time forward.
Not to mention, the accident was caused by the taxi driver speeding in the city. He wanted to do a quick rescue like the ones on TV, but he didn't realize that those rescues on TV involved countless people helping him. He just violated traffic laws and sped on the road, and he really thought he was a hero.
To handle this matter properly, he was even forced to sell several of his own research projects. He had many newly developed products, all currently in the experimental stage, several of which had already passed monitoring, and many companies were contacting him, including some government officials.
He himself has little power, but he wants to have it whenever he wants.
……
"The doorbell seems to be ringing, go open the door."
Yu Liu sat on the sofa, her eyes fixed on the TV, holding a tray filled with thinly sliced fruit. She was eating the fruit one piece at a time when she vaguely heard the doorbell ring. She casually gave instructions to Tang Shuai beside her.
Tang Shuai had no choice but to get up and open the door.
Yu Liu leaned back contentedly on the sofa, deeply enjoying this world. To win over her target, Aning had gone all out, taking meticulous care of her. Although Aning had been good to her in the previous world as well, it couldn't compare to this world. She was practically obedient to him!
"It's you!"
After opening the door, Tang Shuai saw someone he disliked very much.
"Is this Yu Liu's home?"
Liu Quji didn't want to waste words and asked directly.
"Yes, what are you doing here?"
Tang Shuai crossed his arms, looking down at Liu Quji with a disdainful air, taking advantage of his height, which was half a head taller than Liu Quji.
"Ha." Upon hearing the affirmative answer, Liu Quji felt a surge of anger. He had his reasons for coming here, of course, but look at the situation now. The man who opened the door was the one who had been with Yu Liu at the hospital, and this house belonged to Yu Liu. The fact that he could open the door so openly and casually suggested that their relationship was not simple.
This is the kind of person he went on a blind date with. Should he be glad that the car accident made him see Yu Liu for who she really is, that this woman is indeed not as good as she seems?
Liu Quji was naturally not foolish enough to voice these thoughts. After a cold laugh, he returned to his expressionless state: "I have some business with Yu Liu. Could you please make way for me, or go and inform her?"
"Then you wait."
Tang Shuai slammed the door shut and went back. He briefly spoke to Yu Liu, who thought about it for a moment, wondering what Liu Quji wanted to see her about. However, given their past ill-fated relationship, she agreed to invite him in.
