Chapter 1579: You’re Worth It!

With a thud, the person running in front tripped over something and fell to the ground.
The people behind also fell.
The people at the back stopped in their tracks and looked at each other.
Lu Weijian was carrying a baseball bat and adjusted his baseball cap. Behind him was a large group of security guards and members of Team JJ.
It was they who had used baseballs to take down the people running in front of them.
Those men in black were just a bunch of thugs from the streets. When they saw Lu Weijian and the others, their faces turned pale.
Lu Weijian sneered and raised his eyebrows. “How dare you cause trouble in the territory of Nirvana Entertainment? Are you tired of living? Xiao Xi is an employee of our company. Is she someone you can take away? Get lost!”
The group of people had no choice but to disperse.
Lu Weijian rushed over. “Sister Bei Bei, are you okay?”
“I’m okay.” Su Bei walked toward Xiao Xi and Xiao Ling and said, “In the future, you’ll stay in the apartment building for the time being and lie low. We’re in a lawful society, so the Xiao family will, at most, just be arrogant for the time being. After a while, they’ll become obedient.”
“Yes, we understand.” Xiao Xi did not regret what she had done.
Xiao Ming had already been detained.
When he heard that the people who went to cause trouble for Xiao Xi were beaten up, he angrily punched the wheelchair he was in. He lost function in that certain organ, and his injuries had not fully recovered, so he could only use the wheelchair when he went out.
“Lu Weijian is protecting Xiao Xi. We can’t fight the Lu family head-on.”
Xiao Ming was so angry that his face contorted. He had suffered such a serious injury, but he couldn’t even subdue that woman now!
At this moment, a policeman walked over and said, “Xiao Ming, you have visitors. You only have 10 minutes. Hurry up.”
Xiao Ming’s face was twisted as he looked at the people who came.
The people who came now were the organizers of the Golden Crown Film Awards. What were they doing here?
“Xiao Ming, we’re here this time to take away the Best Director Award and Best Film Award that we gave you last time. Last time, it was our mistake, and we didn’t know what was going on behind the scenes. But now that we know, it’s indeed impossible for us to give the awards to someone like you. Please return the trophies!”
Xiao Ming was so angry that he slapped his wheelchair. “The court hasn’t convicted me yet. What right do you have to take my trophies away? It’s just two lousy trophies. Would our Xiao family lack them?”
He had already lost his usual bearing and appeared twisted and dark.
“Then please return the trophies to us now.”
Xiao Ming sneered in anger and got someone to go to the Xiao family to get the trophies. He threw them on the ground. “Take them back and get lost!”
Seeing him like this, the organizers couldn’t help but shake their heads and pick up the trophies.
When they came out, there were many reporters there.
The organizers apologized sincerely to the camera, “We’re sorry. When we gave the awards, we didn’t consider the director’s private actions. Even though his actions took place behind the scenes, since he committed a crime, it became a public affair. Our awards can’t be given to people who break the law. This also reminds us that we have to be more considerate when giving awards in the future to avoid problems.
“Movies are art, and art is a private expression. However, the people involved also has the responsibility of guiding the members of society. The person behind the camera must not be a criminal who hurts others!”
These words quickly spread.
Compared to Xiao Ming’s arrogant response to Su Bei and Xu Zhiqin that day, it seemed that the truth had long been proven.
The next day, Xiao Ming’s trial finally began.
Because he had sexually assaulted countless female staff members for many years, the evidence was conclusive. He was sentenced to 20 years in prison.
Unconvinced, Xiao Ming continued to appeal, but his wish was not fulfilled. The highest court rejected his appeal request and confirmed his sentence.
At this point, Xiao Ming, who deserved it, finally had to pay the price for his actions.
The organizers of the Golden Crown Film Awards looked for Su Bei and Xu Zhiqin again and sincerely handed them the awards.
“I’m sorry, Su Bei. We were careless last time and didn’t discover Xiao Ming’s bad behavior in time. As you said, he’s not worthy of receiving the same award as you.”
“I’m sorry, Xu Zhiqin. The Best Newcomer Award that belongs to you should still be yours. Your actions of speaking up for women have deeply touched everyone.”
“Su Bei, you deserve this Best Female Lead Award. It’s not just because of your acting skills but also your social responsibility to the public. Not only do those victims have to thank you, but those who had not been harmed but would have potentially been threatened by him should also thank you.”
“Xu Zhiqin, we hope that more people like you will speak up for the victims in the future.”
“We also hope that no matter what field it is, there’ll be people like you two who are fearless of power and threats, and who are courageous enough to do the right thing.”
Su Bei and Xu Zhiqin got back their trophies from the organizers.
They posted photos of their trophy on their respective Weibo accounts.
The fans swarmed over. [Su Bei, Xu Zhiqin, you deserve it!]
[Thank you for what you’ve done! I’ll follow your example!]
[Xiao Ming must die! Get out of the movie industry!]
[Actually, I think we should give Lawyer Hua and President Su a trophy too. They’ve done a lot.]
[Although I think so too, the Golden Crown Film Awards is a movie award. Lawyer Hua is a lawyer, and Su Lu is a CEO. How are we going to give them awards?]
[Hahahaha, that’s true. Forget it, I don’t think they lack such awards. Let’s just remember their efforts.]
[I apologize for what I said to Nirvana Entertainment before. You’re all the best!]
[I hold the same opinion!]
[Me too!]
Su Bei looked at the comments on the internet and smiled.
Lu Heting sat down and read the comments with her.
“Look, they finally know who’s in the wrong.” Su Bei smiled faintly. “Most importantly, now that we’ve removed Xiao Ming, that scum, from the industry, we can be more at ease in the future.”
Lu Heting held her hand with a satisfied smile. His woman was so good.
“My Sister Bei Bei is so good!” Lu Weijian was also scrolling through his phone. He wanted to see Hua Cuo, but she flew to the United States as soon as the matter was over. He didn’t even get to see her.
He could only turn his grief into physical strength and focus on the game.
Unexpectedly, after playing half a round, the old man called him home and asked him to look at the news.
As he scrolled, he forgot his grief and was completely won over by Su Bei.
