Chapter 465 - Haven’t Found A Lawyer (2/2)
Upon hearing these words, Jia Zhengyi felt as if he had been granted amnesty. He kowtowed twice again, overwhelmed with relief and gratefulness. “Thank you! Thank you…”
Then he hurriedly sent the post.
“Keep your mouth shut about everything that happened here today. If a fourth person learns about whatever happened today, I will come looking for you two again. By that time, I won’t let you off with a light punishment like this time. I’ll be coming after your head!” Xiao Luo scowled.
Jia Zhengyi and the thin man met eyes with Xiao Luo, and then they felt a chill run down their spines.
Xiao Luo knocked his glass back, downing the tea in one go, and then he slapped the sturdy wooden tea table with his palm.
Crack!
The teacup in his hand instantly shattered into a million pieces flying in every direction, as if it had exploded. Jia Zhengyi and the thin man huddled together and shaking, now collapsed into a heap on the floor. By the time they sat up and looked around the hall, Xiao Luo was nowhere to be seen. The chair he had been sitting on was empty. It was as if there had never been another person in the hall with them.
After experiencing such a terrifying incident, the two of them were so shocked that they remained sitting on the floor, paralyzed in fear, with their eyes and mouths wide open. They were so traumatized that it was difficult to return to their senses. Neither of them called for the police. There was no point in calling the cops against someone as terrifying as Xiao Luo. On the contrary, they would only endanger themselves.
After ten or so seconds, the two of them started crying. Tears of terror poured down from their faces!

After Jia Zhengyi published his apology letter, Weibo quickly came alive with chaotic chatter.
“F*ck! Wasn’t he just saying yesterday that he wasn’t afraid of a subpoena or something? Why is he already making a public apology today?”
“He’s given up. He’s thrown in the towel!”
“Why is this cracking me up? Jia Zhengyi, did you stage all of this as an elaborate joke?”
“This is amazing. As expected, the law is the best weapon.”
“There’s a good boy. Make your apology, and our Goddess Su will forgive you! Haha…”
Below his post were thousands of comments, and many people had shared this post via its link. This apology letter had swept through Weibo’s space like a hurricane and filled Su Li’s diehard fans with glee. The people who were insulting and ridiculing Su Li were thoroughly disappointed, and those who were sitting on the fence and were just here for the show had been treated to quite the wild ride.
Su Li, who was still in quite a frail condition, had heard from Luo Pingxiang about Jia Zhengyi’s apology…
“Sister, that Jia Zhengyi seems to be afraid of a subpoena after all, and now he’s apologizing to you publicly on Weibo. He insulted you like that yesterday, but he’s apologizing to you today. What a joke!” Luo Pingxiang said gleefully as she kneaded Su Li’s shoulders.
Su Li had a book propped open as she read carefully. When she heard the news, she felt a lot better.
At this moment, Chai Zhiying pushed open the door and stormed in. Paying no mind to anything else, she poured herself a cup of water and released the fatigue from her body before she said, “Lili, the press conference has been arranged. It will be held in the Venice Hotel tomorrow afternoon, and all the reporters from the big media outlets will be in attendance. We’ll start preparing now and do our best to brainstorm and think of what questions the reporters might ask. And then we’ll move forward with the least impactful questions.”
“Mmm.”
Su Li nodded and then followed up quickly by saying, “Since Jia Zhengyi has already apologized, then let’s withdraw the lawsuit we filed against him. These days, it’s better to avoid trouble.”
“Sue Jia Zhengyi? But I’ve been so busy with organizing the press conference the past few days that I haven’t contacted the lawyers yet,” Chai Zhiying said.
