"Alright, Xiao Yu, you should go back to your room and rest."
When they first saw the investigation results, they were all somewhat disbelieving and furious. How much more so for the person who had been dating Zhou Shou for half a year?
Therefore, Lin Yu's mother quickly stood up.
She pulled Lin Yu into her own room to let her calm down.
Then, she returned to the living room and continued to discuss with the rest of the family what to do next, how to teach the other party a lesson without affecting her daughter's reputation because of this matter.
However, no matter how much they discussed, they ultimately felt that they couldn't escalate the situation. Because even if the matter blew up, Zhou Shou's actions would not be considered illegal.
Moreover, if the matter escalated, it would undoubtedly have a significant impact on their daughter.
Even if they were to cause trouble, they would have to first distance their own family from it.
Therefore, they could only ultimately choose to help Ding Yun. They would thoroughly escalate the lawsuit for child support that Ding Yun had originally not intended to make a big deal out of. They not only posted in their family group chat and on social media, but they also paid people to spread the relevant news and Zhou Shou's personal information, past actions, and so on, throughout the local social circle.
Their goal was to make sure everyone in the local area recognized him.
Then, Zhou Shou became famous in the local area.
The kind of fame that spread like wildfire, with everyone spitting curses.
With their actions, Zhou Shou's entire family immediately knew that things were not looking good and that they couldn't hide it anymore. Although Zhou Shou was a bit upset about not being able to contact Lin Yu and being cursed at by Lin Yu's parents, he didn't think that Lin Yu's family was the one who exposed his actions to the entire local community.
He always thought it was his ex-girlfriend who did it.
He believed his ex-girlfriend wanted to use public opinion to increase her chances of winning.
In essence, Ding Yun inexplicably took the blame for the trouble that Lin Yu's entire family caused!
Behind her back, Zhou Shou's mother had cursed her countless times.
However, because Ding Yun had already fully entrusted the relevant matters to a law firm, and the skincare brand she founded, Jiao Ren Lei, was showing signs of becoming explosively popular, her attention was focused on her career, and she had no time to bother with these trivial matters.
It wasn't until the court hearing that Ding Yun had some free time to pay attention to the general situation.
And she learned about what had happened to the Zhou family during this period. But because Ding Yun's lawsuit was originally just meant to cause some trouble for the Zhou family, and she didn't intend to actually demand child support, after all, if he were to pay child support, he would surely demand alimony from her daughter when he got older, which would only cause trouble for her daughter.
So, Ding Yun specifically pulled the lawyer aside.
And discussed it with him.
She asked him to initially adopt a strong stance and set a high amount for the child support requested. If the man was unwilling to pay child support and also reluctant to undergo a paternity test, then they should go with the flow and have him sign a statement declaring that he neither raised the child nor had any marital relationship.
And then get it notarized.
The reason Ding Yun went to such lengths was because Zhou Shou already knew he had such a daughter. Ding Yun herself was not sure if Zhou Shou would be angered to death or suffer some other accidental death when she eventually stirred up trouble for the Zhou family. If he didn't die and later demanded alimony from her daughter when he was old, that would be a truly frustrating situation.
It was precisely to prevent this possibility that Ding Yun went through all this trouble.
As Ding Yun finished her instructions to the lawyer, the subsequent proceedings went largely as she had predicted. The Zhou family was indeed unwilling to pay child support and reluctant to undergo a paternity test. Furthermore, Ding Yun was not very willing to provide overly private evidence.
Therefore, the situation quickly became somewhat stalemated.
At this point, Ding Yun's lawyer smoothly brought up what Ding Yun had discussed with him earlier. The Zhou family, at this moment, would not have considered such long-term consequences.
Therefore, they readily agreed.
And quickly signed the relevant statements.
Ultimately, the matter concluded with an in-court settlement.
...
On a certain social media platform, under the hashtag #JiaoRenLei#.
Even though the relevant hashtag had been created for less than a month, the discussion volume within it was already quite considerable. Today, it even climbed to the bottom of the trending topics list due to the launch of 249.9 yuan for five luxurious face masks and 199.9 yuan for a box of luxurious face cream.
[Why did the price suddenly increase?]
[The shopkeeper has really gotten arrogant. Although the products' effects are indeed very good, the prices have increased so drastically in just a few days. Even cutting leeks wouldn't be this bad. Isn't this a bit too much?]
[I was originally thinking I had finally found a domestic skincare brand with super high cost-effectiveness and excellent results. I didn't expect the shopkeeper to start causing trouble less than a month after opening. We valued affordability and good quality, and this sudden price increase makes it difficult for us!]
[Can everyone look closely before complaining? Are some people's eyes just for show? Did you not see the word "luxurious" in large letters before the two new products the shopkeeper launched?
Although calling things costing around a hundred yuan "luxurious" is a bit tacky, they did clearly indicate that the newly launched products are different from the previously sold ones. Nowadays, which skincare shop doesn't have low-end, mid-range, and high-end products?
It's not as if they're not allowed to launch mid-range products!
The cheaper products haven't been taken down either.
Besides, if the shop sells such cheap products with great results, the products that cost several times more must have even better results!
Anyway, I'm buying them first!!!]
[For those who complain about the price increase, just don't buy them.
If you don't buy them, I can buy more, so I don't have to rush to pre-order every time. It's just that the shop's purchase limit is too troublesome. One account can only buy five bottles of face cream per month. I use face cream as body lotion, and the effect is better than any full-body spa treatment I've ever had.
Five bottles a month is simply not enough.]
[Let me tell you, a classmate of mine participated in the trial of this skincare product before it was launched. He must have tried a very potent, high-concentration product, and the results were truly magical, better than medical aesthetics treatments.
It's like having had plastic surgery,
And then having undergone several full-body medical aesthetic treatments.
Whatever, I'm buying it first.]
[Sisters, I highly recommend all of Jiao Ren Lei's skincare products. Now I only wish they had more varieties. I've used skincare products costing two or three thousand yuan a bottle, and the effect was really just to maintain skin stability. If the original skin condition was very poor, there might be some effect, but if the original skin condition was already good, the effect was truly negligible.
But Jiao Ren Lei is different. I originally thought that to improve my condition and regain a more youthful appearance, I would have to get various injections or something.
But I never expected that after only seven days of using Jiao Ren Lei.
My entire skin condition changed.
I truly have a vague feeling of being younger.]
[This consistent stream of positive reviews is making me numb. Are you guys getting paid for reviews or something?]
[It's too brazen that they're selling things like this now. They're even resorting to fake reviews on the trending topics list. They're hyping up products that cost tens of yuan as if they were thousands or tens of thousands.]
[Products costing over a hundred or two hundred yuan dare to call themselves luxurious? Is this a luxurious item from the slums?]
[This is really hilarious...]
