What's wrong with this lawyer?!

Is this about being expelled?

That's a bit too quick, isn't it? I remember he was all over the internet supporting the other side just before. Don't ask why he supported them; college students are always like this, they just love watching this kind of drama unfold.

Back then, we joked about it, saying that you're going to get yourself into trouble this way—and now, trouble has indeed found you.

But this definitely won't do. Zhang Yuhao exhibited his skills as a keyboard warrior, continuously sharing and commenting online.

"Jingzhou Vocational College is being too overbearing, aren't they? Wasn't what he said the truth? How can they threaten to expel a student just because of a video?"

"The quality of those clothes is obviously poor. Why should we accept this? Let's all share this and expose the true colors of those people from Jingzhou Vocational College!"

Liu Zixu's issue was already trending online, and now netizens from all walks of life were joining in to bolster the cause.

Soon, the fervor of the situation escalated.

On the other side, Dean Wang was chatting with the school's logistics manager about the impact of public opinion on the school, as the main complaints about the poor quality of military training uniforms were targeting the logistics center.

Just then, Dean Wang's assistant suddenly interjected, "Dean, there's more public sentiment about our school online, and it's again posted by Liu Zixu!"

What? Dean Wang took a look at the phone, and there it was—a trending hot search titled "Student allegedly being expelled for complaining about poor quality training uniforms" shining brightly.

He was immediately furious, "What on earth is Liu Zixu trying to do? Over and over again; does he think he can bully the school?"

The assistant spoke up, "Dean, the situation is really serious now. I see netizens are already atting for a thorough investigation by the provincial authorities. Perhaps we should try to figure out a solution first..."

Indeed, the issue was serious; when public opinion gains momentum, a school cannot simply confront it head-on.

Having no other recourse, Dean Wang made a phone call and then decided to issue a response from the school.

As time rushed to the following day, the netizens saw that Jingzhou Vocational and Technical College had issued a notice.

The content of the notice was roughly that the school was aware of the current public sentiment and was actively communicating with the student and parents by phone and home visits, guiding the student to continue their studies.

Meanwhile, in the student advisor's office, Liu Zixu was once again sitting in front of the counselor. He didn't bring his parents this time; he didn't want them to face these people again. Discover exclusive tales on empire

"What's with you, kid? Couldn't you have talked it out with the school instead of posting online? Do you just want to see the school get bashed by netizens to feel satisfied?" the counselor said with dissatisfaction.

The pressure from the top always trickles down to the grassroots level, and schools are no exception. The counselor is often the one who takes the heat.

Ultimately, whatever problem a student has, you, the counselor, have to deal with it. That's why we often see counselors in some school groups saying the most outrageous things...

It's all normal; you're accountable only to the source of your authority.

However, Liu Zixu was not in the mood to indulge him, just like Peng Wanrong back in the day. Once she decided to dissolve her company, it was like a whole new world of freedom opened up to her.

"Didn't I just tell you last time? I was practically begging you, and what did you say to me? You said even if I came back to school, it wouldn't last long because the school would definitely not let me graduate. Weren't those your words?"

"And what about my parents? They were nearly down on their knees at the school administrators' office, and still, they weren't persuaded. So, isn't it normal that I posted about wanting to drop out online?" Liu Zixu yelled.

The counselor's face turned dark across from him, "What's with that attitude? Is this how you talk to me?"

"What's wrong with me? I'm someone who's about to be expelled; is there a problem with how I'm speaking?"

The counselor was taken aback for a moment, and his tone softened, "Look at you, what's the rush? I'm here today to tell you that you don't have to drop out anymore."

"After all, the school's goal is to educate students, so after considering everything, we've decided to give you a probationary punishment. You can stay, but you have to delete the videos you posted before."

"And don't post that kind of stuff again."

Huh? Liu Zixu was stunned; he suddenly felt like the university was like a mule—it won't move when led, it has to be driven forward with a stick...
