Di Mingzhe naturally refused to show weakness. With his understanding of Dan Lingling, and hearing the tone from Dan Youguo, he knew that Dan Lingling had concealed so facts, so he was even less afraid.
After pondering, Di Mingzhe fearlessly opened his mouth, "Your Excellency, I’m afraid you have misunderstood so facts. Speaking of abuse of power, it seems that Miss Lingling was the first to abuse it. What right did she have to incite your guards three days ago to disrespect by blocking my way and holding at gunpoint? As the Vice President, my personal safety was threatened. Was it wrong to temporarily detain her?"
Dan Youguo was taken aback.
Dan Lingling quickly spoke up, "I did not incite the guards to block your way, I just delayed you a bit to ask you a few questions, that’s all."
Di Mingzhe raised his eyebrows and looked at Dan Lingling, unable to hide the disgust in his eyes. Not wanting to argue excessively with this family, he turned his gaze back to Dan Youguo and directly asked, "The issue of right and wrong happened three days ago. I believe you do not fully understand the situation. I also do not wish to argue with you, so just tell , what do you plan to do with ?"
Di Mingzhe’s straightforward question left Dan Youguo stunned.
However, Jin Yan arrogantly spoke first, "Di Mingzhe, your ntor has been trendously kind to you, and not only do you not know how to be grateful, but instead, you repay kindness with enmity. Lingling has known you for over ten years; even if you weren’t childhood sweethearts, you are old acquaintances. For such a trivial matter, you detained her for three entire days!
Where is your conscience? Was it eaten by a dog? As the saying goes, if you don’t respect the monk, you should at least respect the Buddha. Even if Lingling was at fault, for your ntor’s sake, couldn’t you just treat her like a child and issue a verbal warning?
Being so ruthless and unkind, doing such a thing, where does your ntor stand with you? Would you be where you are today without him? Could you sit in the Vice President’s position?
Yes, I admit Lingling likes you and wants to marry you; is that a cri? Why are you so heartless and cruel to lock a girl in such a place for three whole days?
Have you considered her feelings? Have you thought about how your ntor’s only daughter, after being locked up by you, would feel knowing later on?
Now that you’re a father, can you understand? What you did in this matter was truly excessive. Yes, Dan Lingling was wrong, but it was only because she liked you!"
Jin Yan spoke a torrent of words, leaving Dan Lingling in tears, feeling utterly wronged, while Dan Youguo was both angry and heartbroken.
Putting everything else aside, Di Mingzhe was indeed his prized student and soone he valued greatly. Over the years, naturally, there were feelings.
Upon hearing Jin Yan’s words, Di Mingzhe remained neither humble nor arrogant, unwilling to succumb to this moral coercion.
"Madam Dan, I think you might have made a mistake," Di Mingzhe said. "Liking soone is not wrong, but failing to restrain one’s feelings when the person is already married is immoral. Marriage in our country is legally protected. My marriage with my wife is both legal and moral. I am married, and I have the right to refuse any emotional harassnt. I can only apologize for Miss Dan’s affection.
However, her affection can never be a legitimate reason to interfere with my marriage and emotions with my wife. My wife is about to give birth. Under the guise of affection, Miss Dan blocked my way, which is immoral personally and an abuse of power publicly."
