Public pressure!

Confusion, regret, and bitterness—Ye Juaner's heart was a tangle of emotions.

At the same time, she felt resentful. Why was Zhou Feiyu being so heartless? Had he really forgotten the feelings they once shared?

Why couldn't he appear before her and protect her in her time of need, just like he did when he crashed that wedding?

Why couldn't Zhou Feiyu understand her? She was clearly willing to remarry him.

She only stayed close to Song Wanfeng because he had once saved her life.

And why was Zhou Cheng so vicious? Why did he bring out a Divorce Agreement to force her to sign?

She was only taking back her own dowry; was that so wrong?

Even now, Ye Juaner didn't think she was in the wrong. She was still holding on, still being stubborn!

However, while she was still holding out, the rest of the Ye family had long since reached their breaking point!

As for Zhou Cheng, he continued to go to work leisurely. When there was a mission, he would take Zhao Yier on a call; otherwise, he stayed at the police station and didn't go out.

After all, the weather outside was sweltering, and being outdoors was pure torture.

When Zhou Cheng returned from lunch, Captain Wu rushed over to find him, looking extremely anxious.

"Zhou Cheng, something's happened! Get your phone out and search for the news about Chenyang Group ruining a student from a poor family!"

Captain Wu's face was full of worry. This was exactly what Zhou Cheng had done yesterday.

After the police arrested Qiu Yuwei and confirmed that the evidence Zhou Cheng provided proved her illegal activities, they contacted Qiu Yuwei's mother yesterday to have her come to the station!

Then, a video was released this morning. After brewing throughout the morning and afternoon, it quickly became a hot topic, drawing widespread attention!

Zhou Cheng could sense Captain Wu's urgency. Hearing his words, he immediately guessed it must be about Qiu Yuwei.

He pulled his phone from his pocket and did a quick search, immediately finding the top trending video.

It already had hundreds of thousands of likes, and a large number of self-media commentators were following the case, posting videos in support.

Zhou Cheng clicked on it. The person on screen was a middle-aged woman with a pale complexion, disheveled hair, and listless eyes with dark circles under them.

Zhou Cheng made a rough guess and figured she must be Qiu Yuwei's mother.

The video played automatically, and Qiu Yuwei's mother's voice rang out, tinged with a slight tremble and a sense of misery.

"I'm sorry to take up everyone's time, but I'm at the end of my rope. I had no other choice but to do this..."

"I am a mother from an ordinary poor family. My daughter is my pride; she is exceptionally talented. But now, her life is being destroyed by that top-tier Group in Shanghai. So, I have no choice but to seek everyone's help..."

The video's script was well-written, clearly the work of someone knowledgeable.

It directly framed the situation as a tragic family being oppressed by a wealthy clan, inciting public outrage!

Zhou Cheng frowned slightly as he watched. He had seen this kind of tactic many times before!

Then, the woman in the video began to explain the sequence of events.

Of course, it was all maliciously adapted to favor them, clearly adopting the stance of a victim.

"My daughter has been outstanding since she was a child. She is studious and never wastes time playing. This year, she even secured a recommendation spot at Tsinghua University through the Olympiad. With the College Entrance Examination approaching, she was even hoping to become the top scorer in Shanghai to get help from the school and some kind-hearted companies to ease my burden..."

"But just yesterday, the police suddenly notified me that my daughter had been arrested for multiple counts of theft. They said the amount was enough to constitute a criminal offense, and she is now in criminal detention."

"How is that possible? My daughter has been well-behaved since she was little; how could she possibly steal? After looking into it, I found out she had offended the Second Young Master of Chenyang Group, and that's why he had her locked up."

"The College Entrance Examination is almost here. By doing this, isn't he just trying to ruin my daughter's entire life?"

This was a blatant distortion of the facts!

Zhou Cheng scrolled further. In just one lunch break, a massive amount of support videos had appeared.

The traffic was peaking; no wonder Captain Wu was so frantic.

"Zhou Cheng, how about letting Qiu Yuwei out to take the College Entrance Examination first? After all, her case isn't exceptionally severe. We could show some leniency..."

Captain Wu was clearly trying to find a middle ground—giving Qiu Yuwei a chance to take the exam before returning to detention!

But Zhou Cheng shook his head immediately.

"Captain Wu, when Sun Qian returned yesterday, he must have told you everything that happened at the scene, right?"

"I didn't violate any laws or regulations throughout the process, and the evidence is irrefutable!"

"So it's clear that Qiu Yuwei's mother is distorting the facts and slandering me! We cannot back down on this!"

"Furthermore, I am reporting this to the police right now. I hope you'll open a case for me, Captain Wu. This person posted a video to spread rumors, which has significantly impacted my Chenyang Group! I demand her immediate arrest!"

Zhou Cheng said in a low voice.

As for himself, he never broke the law and always acted with absolute justice, so he wasn't afraid of being coerced by public opinion at all.

If anyone dared to use rumors and public opinion to coerce him or force him to back down...

Then sorry, but the whole family should be kept together.

Arrest them all!

"Zhou Cheng, if we arrest her now, won't that just add fuel to the fire and make the public outcry even worse?"

Captain Wu hesitated, mostly out of concern for Zhou Cheng.

Right now, both Chenyang Group and Zhou Cheng were being torn apart by netizens!

If they went through with this, the consequences might be even more severe.

But Zhou Cheng didn't think so.

"Captain Wu, I haven't done anything wrong. I'll have Chenyang Group post the full story and the video recorded in the private room yesterday onto the internet!"

"And we can't back down now. To uphold the authority of the law, we absolutely cannot be swayed by public opinion!"

Zhou Cheng spoke firmly, but Captain Wu still found it hard to make a decision.

So, he had no choice but to take Zhou Cheng to Director He's office and report everything to him!

The cautious Director He didn't immediately agree with Zhou Cheng; he was also worried at this moment.

He was afraid that Zhou Cheng was using his public office for personal gain.

"Director He, this is the record of Chenyang Group's financial aid to Qiu Yuwei over the years, as well as the training contract signed by her and her mother! Under this contract, our Chenyang Group even covered her mother's medical expenses!"

"You could say Chenyang Group has spent a vast amount of money and resources on her. And yesterday, it was Qiu Yuwei who rudely proposed to breach the contract. Furthermore, the surveillance videos of her multiple thefts are all real!"

"Therefore, it's one hundred percent certain that her mother is spreading rumors! Bringing her to the station now is perfectly legal and within regulations!"

Zhou Cheng said, handing his phone to Director He, which displayed various pieces of evidence.

Zhou Cheng also had He Yubing arrange for a lawyer from the Group to come and handle the matter!

Director He carefully looked through the evidence on Zhou Cheng's phone and pondered for a moment.

Finally, he nodded!

"Xiao Wu, have the people from the Second Public Security Team bring her in. Zhou Cheng, to avoid any suspicion of conflict of interest, you shouldn't be involved in this part. Arrange for someone else to represent Chenyang Group." Director He was experienced and wise.

However, he hadn't expected this. Usually, in such situations, other Groups would either choose to play dead or negotiate a private settlement with the other party.

He didn't expect Zhou Cheng to be so uncompromising!

"I understand. I've already called to arrange for the Group's lawyer to come over!" Zhou Cheng nodded!
