#577 - Chapter 577: Apologies are useful, what is the use of laws? North American secret envoys, Tsa
Xue Wen was eager to take photos with Chen Hao and Xia Qingmo.
Headlines and Kuaiyin creations could earn money, and the higher the traffic, the higher the revenue.
Crucially.
There was a chance to become famous overnight!
The pregnant woman blocking the way was truly hateful!
As for scolding her…
She wasn't afraid at all: she was Xia Qingmo's classmate, and Xia Qingmo was Chen Hao's girlfriend. Not to mention in such a small restaurant, even in the entire Huaxia… who would dare to provoke someone like Chen Hao?
"What are you saying?!"
Suddenly!
Two men abruptly stood up, glaring at her with fury.
One was the pregnant woman's husband.
The other was the pregnant woman's younger brother.
"What? Just because you have more people? You want to hit me?"
Xue Wen was still arrogant and domineering: "Come on! Try touching me! See that? Xia Qingmo is my classmate, and her boyfriend is Chen Hao—dare to touch a single hair on my head, and I'll guarantee your family will be ruined!"
She had shouted their names loudly just now.
Xia Qingmo and Chen Hao had already been exposed.
The two young men subconsciously glanced at Chen Hao's side.
Chen Hao!
Chairman of Hanteng Capital!
Backed by the country!
Such an existence, not to mention ordinary people, even the top leader of Shanghai would have to give him some respect.
"I'm not familiar with her!"
Suddenly!
At this critical moment, Xia Qingmo stood up and looked at Xue Wen coldly: "I've seen her in the same dormitory, but if that counts as a friend, how many friends would I have?"
"Besides, none of my friends are like her, arrogant, domineering, and bullying!"
"And none of them are as vicious as her, cursing an unborn child!"
The scene fell silent.
Chen Hao revealed a smile.
His wife's values never needed to be questioned.
"Qingmo, you… we were in the dormitory…" Xue Wen was dumbfounded.
"What friend?"
Chen Hao stood up and sneered: "To be Qingmo's friend, you must first be a human being—a beast cannot be a friend!"
"Chairman Chen…"
Xue Wen dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak.
"What did you call my wife just now?!"
Seeing that Chen Hao and Xia Qingmo not only didn't treat Xue Wen as a friend, but were also extremely angry at her behavior, the pregnant woman's husband felt confident.
He immediately stepped forward, glaring at Xue Wen: "Apologize! Otherwise… don't blame me for being impolite!"
"There's no need to resort to violence."
At this time.
The couple finished eating, and Chen Hao took his wife's hand, walked over, and chuckled: "What's the point of law if apologies are useful? This kind of person, even if they apologize, it's under pressure. Can you expect them to sincerely repent?"
"Mr. Chen, thank you!"
The man's face was full of gratitude.
He knew that if Chen Hao stood on Xue Wen's side, his wife wouldn't be able to get justice even after being humiliated like that.
"Remember!"
Chen Hao looked at the onlookers and said in a deep voice, word by word: "Huaxia is a society ruled by law! Anyone who makes a mistake must be punished, not because she is someone's friend… let alone if she isn't! Even if she is, it's not okay!"
"Don't be afraid of power, even if her friend is the King of Heaven, it is absolutely impossible to escape punishment!"
"Flogging is prepared for this kind of person!"
After speaking.
He took his wife and left.
Behind him, countless cheers and applause erupted.
In less than a minute.
Several policemen rushed in, and when Xue Wen saw these policemen, she was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground.
Flogging!
She couldn't stand it!
"No… I know I was wrong, I won't dare to do it again…"
"Please forgive me… I'll kneel down to you!"
She knelt down and begged the pregnant woman while crying.
"Get up!"
The leading policeman shouted coldly: "If apologies were useful, there would be no need for the police—take her away!"
In the past, in order to avoid trouble, the police would act as mediators, but the new regulations absolutely did not allow it.
Anyone who tried to smooth things over would be fired immediately!
Right is right.
Wrong is wrong.
If forgiveness was enough, it would only create a侥幸心理, greatly reducing the cost of doing evil.
Bad people would think that even if they did something bad next time, they could just cry and beg for forgiveness—it wouldn't cost them anything.
Xue Wen was completely scared out of her wits.
She really pissed herself!
Yellowish-brown liquid flowed all over the ground, and the smell of urine instantly filled the air.
The lethality of flogging was terrifying to any normal person, let alone her, who not only had to endure flogging, but also…
Once this matter spread back to school, she would definitely be expelled!
…
Ten thousand miles away, the Kremlin.
The reception hall.
The North American envoy was secretly talking with the Tsar's Foreign Minister.
After talking for more than two hours and sending the North American envoy out, a man in a suit walked out from behind a screen in the reception hall.
It was the Great Emperor!
He had been listening in the dark all along.
"What do you all think?" The Great Emperor looked behind him.
Several high-level officials from the Tsar followed behind him, all of whom had been listening with him earlier.
"North America's goal is very obvious, to win us over to contain Huaxia."
"Our current relationship with Huaxia…"
"Once we turn our backs, Huaxia may ban the sale of military products to us, and civilian technology will also be cut off!"
A group of high-level officials discussed one after another.
For a long time.
The Great Emperor suddenly said: "The Tsar's goal has never been second, let alone third!"
This was the national policy!
17 million square kilometers of land.
How could such a country have no ambition?
Without ambition, there would have been no US-Soviet hegemony, and Huaxia would not have been treated as a younger brother, eventually leading to a split between the two countries.
The Tsar had always wanted to enter Europe, but North America had previously tried its best to stop it.
They even formed NATO to prevent the Tsar from entering Europe.
What about now?
North America gave a lot of benefits.
For example, once Huaxia banned sales to the Tsar, North America would spare no effort to support them in terms of technology.
They would give technology if they wanted technology!
They would give equipment if they wanted equipment!
Another example.
North America completely changed its attitude, claiming to support the Tsar's entry into Europe.
"But the current Europe…"
The deputy frowned and said helplessly: "What's the use of North American support? Most European countries have already embraced Huaxia!"
"So, the source is Huaxia, isn't it?" The Great Emperor said coldly.
That's right!
The source still comes from Huaxia.
Standing in the Tsar's position, they couldn't stand North America being too powerful, nor could they stand Huaxia being too powerful.
At least…
North America was farther away from the Tsar, right?
What about Huaxia?
It was right next door!
Once Huaxia surpassed North America and became the strongest country in the world, with its geographical location next to the Tsar… the Tsar would have difficulty sleeping and eating!
"The plan from the Cold War should also be restarted!" The Great Emperor said in a deep voice.
"That's right!"
The Foreign Minister, who was responsible for negotiating with the North American envoy, nodded and said: "North America has promised to give our side enough financial support!"
…
There are no eternal enemies, nor eternal friends, only eternal interests.
Would the Tsar join forces with North America?
Regarding this.
Chen Hao had already been aware of it.
Once Huaxia broke the balance and formed a clear suppression of North America, the Tsar would inevitably lean towards North America.
It's a game.
The old folks would handle these issues.
What Chen Hao had to do was…
During the US-Soviet hegemony, the two countries had a lot of black technology.
North America's arms race with the former Soviet Union certainly completely blew up its opponent, but its own life was not easy either—the investment in military research was too large.
After the collapse of the former Soviet Union, North America sealed up many projects and began to fully develop its economy.
On the other side.
With the collapse of the former Soviet Union, the Tsar's economy plummeted, and a series of research and development projects were forced to stop, as there was really no money to do them!
Once North America and the Tsar joined forces, the Tsar would inevitably receive assistance.
Perhaps…
Black technology research and development would also be restarted?
The game between countries didn't need Chen Hao to pay attention to.
The game?
In the end, it was still technology!
As long as Huaxia was strong enough, the alliance between North America and the Tsar would be meaningless.
What he had to do was to develop stronger technology faster than North America and the Tsar, forming absolute suppression!
