The lawyer that Gu Qingcheng's assistant sent over was his friend, and a person who was quite capable. After finding out about the situation, he got his hands on the records from the surveillance camera at the entrance of the district Zhou Yuchen stayed at. He said that Zhou Yuchen was only acting out of self-defense.
He was even planning to sue everyone who had taken part in beating up Zhou Yuchen. He then wanted to bring Zhou Yuchen to the hospital to do a checkup.
The lawyer representing Zhou Yuchen was especially straightforward, cutting to the chase. He made it clear that if they were to settle this out of court, these people would have to pay compensation for the emotional damages done to Zhou Yuchen… as well as the serious harm they had brought to Zhou Yuchen in their bullying over the past few years!
Other than that, Xiao Yuan would also need to give a solemn apology at the school assembly. Only then would they let this matter rest.
