1795 Not Famous

If he could not truly clear his name, this matter would always haunt him and become a stain in his life.

It was not in Su Bei’s creed to let time wash away one’s dark history. Why not prove Ji Rufeng’s innocence?

…

Yu Lan walked into a cafe.

She looked around and saw that the ordinary-looking Su Lu was already sitting there waiting for her.

President Su looked even more ordinary than she had seen in the news reports. It was hard to imagine that she was a senior executive of an entertainment company.

Yu Lan walked over, found a seat, and sat down. “Hello, President Su.”

“Hello, Miss Yu.” Su Bei looked Yu Lan up and down. Her facial features were actually not bad. In order to investigate her, Su Bei had also seen her works and found that she was actually quite energetic.

She just didn’t know why she hadn’t become famous after so many years.

“Miss Yu, you must know why I’m looking for you. I want to talk about Rufeng.”

Yu Lan’s expression darkened. “Are you here to apologize and reconcile with me on behalf of Ji Rufeng? I’m sorry, but I can’t forgive him.”

“Miss Yu, you’ve also seen the police report. Rufeng’s situation in the past two days was actually very special. There are hospital documents.”

Yu Lan pursed her lips. “I don’t know what others think, but just because he underwent surgery, does it mean he doesn’t have any bad intentions? He forced a kiss on me and touched me. Isn’t that considered a form of abuse? President Su, you’ve handled Xiao Ming’s case before, so you must be aware of such things. Abuse toward women doesn’t only include direct violation. Some words and obvious actions can make one feel very uncomfortable. Isn’t this considered a violation?”

Su Bei quietly took the coffee from the waiter, tore open the sugar packet, and gently stirred it in.

“Although the police have already given evidence and calmed down the outside world, the hurt in my heart will never be appeased. You helped your own people in going against Xiao Ming, but you also hurt an innocent person like me for your own people. Forgive me for not agreeing with your point of view and principles.”

Yu Lan’s words sounded righteous.

Su Bei herself did waver for a moment.

She nodded calmly. “I’ll continue to investigate this matter, Miss Yu. If Ji Rufeng is really that kind of person, I won’t tolerate it.”

“I hope that’s true,” Yu Lan said.

After she left, Su Bei sat there for a while.

Yu Lan’s words did make her think for a while. Could she believe Ji Rufeng too easily?

However, the hospital’s evidence could not be faked, and Ji Rufeng would not court death to that extent.

Lu Heting came to pick her up. After getting into the car, she was still thinking about this.

“Did Ji Rufeng really do such a thing?” Su Bei was still a little puzzled.

“Do you believe in evidence or feelings?” Lu Heting asked.

Su Bei thought for a moment. “It depends.”

“Then why don’t we look for more information?” Lu Heting suggested. “We can make the situation clearer.”

“That makes sense,” Su Bei said. She suddenly thought of something and said, “When I met Yu Lan just now, she was wearing a new piece of jewelry. I remember that the jewelry is only sold in the United States. I accompanied Grandma to shop there before. Moreover, that piece of jewelry is very small and expensive.”

Su Bei was also in the jewelry business and had a photographic memory for many designs. This helped her quickly figure out some things and find a clue.

“But I remember you saying that Yu Lan’s reputation is average, and her income is average as well. She comes from a normal family too.”

Su Bei nodded. “That’s right. So how did she manage to get her hands on that jewelry? We might have to check her whereabouts.”

“I’ll get Lu Hang to check it for you.”

Su Bei did not object. It was a slight overkill for Lu Hang to investigate such a matter, but it was still worth it. They would probably get an answer soon.

“Help me investigate Ji Rufeng too.”

Su Bei did not want to have double standards. Women’s rights had to be protected. She knew this better than anyone else and wanted to protect this right.

She had taken Lan Yu’s words to heart. If Ji Rufeng had indeed done something wrong, she would definitely take responsibility!

After Su Bei returned, she took a look online and found that countless people were still boycotting Ji Rufeng.

It turned out that after Yu Lan went back, she posted a message on the internet. [Although President Su has arranged to meet me to discuss Ji Rufeng’s matter, my usual principle is that a mistake is a mistake, and a right is a right. I won’t compromise on this matter. I also want to reiterate that the abuse of women doesn’t only count after a round of sex. Words, actions, caresses, and some gazes can make one feel uncomfortable. I think this is also considered abuse. I believe that I don’t only represent myself but all the women who have been unfairly violated.

[Everyone tells us to make peace. As long as there’s no real harm, even the police might not care. But what about the psychological harm we suffered? Who will care about us?!]

Her words made sense.

Women had been at a disadvantage in society since long ago.

Yu Lan’s words resonated with many people.

[Yu Lan, you’re right. It’s not just sex. Words, gazes, or actions that make women feel uncomfortable are also considered. Even if the police didn’t hold Ji Rufeng accountable, we have to know that this kind of behavior hurts women!]

[I think Yu Lan did a good job. She’s not doing this for herself but for all women!]

[We can’t think that Ji Rufeng’s rude words and actions are flirtatious just because he’s handsome. Women need to recognize that being wretched is being wretched, and aggression is aggression. It doesn’t matter what the person in question looks like.]

[Yes, I think it’s especially important to establish such a belief for little girls. Don’t be fooled by a man’s appearance. Say no to anything that feels uncomfortable!]

[So why did Ji Rufeng return to work? Is it so easy for scumbags to get good treatment?]

[What’s so good about his face?]

[I think there’s something wrong with Nirvana Entertainment too. I heard that Su Lu is back. He’s the one protecting Ji Rufeng!]

[The impression I have of Su Lu has been shattered. In the past, he was so strong and unyielding, but now, because the person involved is one of his people, he’s partially defending him regardless of the reason?]
