Curious, she opened her account and checked her video viewing history, browsing through them one by one.
"The third one! It's the third one!"
"High energy incoming! Sister Lan, take care of yourself; bros, we're outta here first!"
"I suggest watching in silence throughout. Most importantly, even if you speak, don't use foul language!"
Looking at the slightly exaggerated, sensational bullet comments, Qing Lan was momentarily stunned. Her gaze settled on the third-to-last video in her browsing history. She remembered watching this video when she ended her stream yesterday. It seemed to be uploaded by a new content creator and was about someone who was insulted after making a donation, then sued the offender and even got them jailed.
This video actually broke ten million views?
She clicked on the video. Qing Lan was stunned again. She remembered that when she saw it yesterday, the video hardly had any views. Unexpectedly, it had gone viral in just one day.
Huh? He's released a new video?
Subsequently, she quickly found the second video her viewers had told her to watch. The title of the video was "Eat Anything, But Don't Say Just Anything," and it also had reached over four million views. The bullet comments in the live stream room were even more agitated than usual at this moment.
"I have to see what's in this video!" Qing Lan puffed her cheeks and clicked on it.
In the video, Qin Mu appeared in the middle of the screen.
"I'm delighted that the first video received so much attention and likes, but in the comments section of that video, a troll appeared. He twisted facts in his comments, causing great damage to the reputation of the donor featured in the previous video. The police have now accepted the case and are investigating swiftly, and there should be results before long."
The video was very short, less than a minute.
Troll?
Having watched the video, Qing Lan was even more puzzled and bewildered. She asked her viewers, but they all beat around the bush; everyone started speaking in riddles. None of them answered her directly.
With no other choice, she could only return to the first video and search for answers in the comments section.
As expected, in the first video's comment section, she saw an account named "Daily English Learning." This single account had posted dozens of comments, all of them slandering the donor. They even doxxed the donor's personal identity, home address, and other details.
He... did he actually sue them?
Qing Lan pursed her lips, her eyes flickering for a moment. Obviously, the second video was about the smearing behavior of this "Daily English Learning."
As a live streamer, while her viewers and fans generally maintained a decent quality, she had encountered more than a few trolls. She had seen all sorts of obscene words and slanderous terms; they were utterly unbearable.
Initially, she would retort to these trolls and slanderers during her live streams. She also created quite a few infamous 'highlights' with her colorful language. But as she spent more time live streaming, she learned to ignore them. After all, the cost of spreading rumors and slandering people is ridiculously low. If she argued back a few more times, the bullet comments would go crazy with "She's triggered!" playing mind games with her.
What she didn't expect was that this content creator, facing the same situation, had sued the person without further ado.
"Sue? The person was already locked up! The statement came out in the morning, and by the afternoon, they were in jail."
"The content creator doesn't mess with those fancy tricks; if he says he'll sue, he'll sue. Apparently, you can get free jail food for three years!"
"Did you notice that all the trolls in the comment section have disappeared without a trace?"
"Jeez, you should have seen it! Hundreds of troll comments, all vanished automatically. The content creator didn't even lift a finger; they practically picked up a train and ran off overnight!"
In the live chat, many who had experienced it firsthand were animatedly discussing what had happened. Seeing the trolls get punished had everyone feeling incredibly satisfied. They usually enjoyed watching women's live streams; they might be a bit homebound, but they never trolled anyone. But these internet trolls were almost everywhere. And this time, they finally met someone who could deal with them.
"Another one bites the dust. This Qin Mu... is really quite interesting," Qing Lan blinked, also showing a hint of curiosity. She had never met someone so earnest before.
However, the tone of the chat took a sudden shift because of the words she uttered.
"This shouldn't have violated any defamation laws, right? No, to be safe, I'd better consult a lawyer."
"Don't bother asking, the streamer is looking at at least three years to start. My clever self has already deleted my fan badge."
"Solemn declaration: the streamer's actions have nothing to do with the fans!"
"Gotta go, gotta go! Sister Lan is done for. For small matters, we burn paper offerings; for big issues, we dig graves."
Watching the barrage of strange and bizarre comments in the chat, Qing Lan's mouth twitched. Although the netizens were all spouting jokes, this was a bit too exaggerated. It was clear that Qin Mu's decision to actually sue had quite a shocking impact on them.
「The next day.」
「Jin City, Nursing Home.」
Following Qian Tao's arrest, the nursing home once again returned to its usual tranquility. Wang Dachui arrived at the office on time at nine, ready to slack off. Qin Mu, on the other hand, continued to take care of the elderly's daily routines, accompanying them in various recreational activities for seniors, like playing chess, taking walks, and playing badminton or table tennis.
「At noon.」
Qin Mu received a call from Shen Dao, mainly about two things.
One was about Yang Minghui's case. Yang Minghui and her accomplices had now been transferred to prison, prepared to serve a five-year sentence. As for the 480,000 yuan compensation they owed, because her husband refused to pay, the court decided to enforce it. Banks had already frozen her family's related assets, which would be liquidated in a judicial auction and then given to Li Weiguo. The remainder would be paid in installments by Yang Minghui and the others after their release from prison.
He had no comment on this, nor did he have any sympathy. Those deserving of pity often have hateful qualities. They should have thought about this outcome when they were doing those things.
The second matter was about Qian Tao's case. With Qian Tao arrested and the evidence chain complete, the procuratorate was ready to file public charges. Since this was a private prosecution case—meaning nothing would happen if no one pressed charges—Shen Dao asked for his opinion once more.
Qin Mu's request was simple: no leniency, aim for the maximum sentence. Thanks to his viral video, the defamation Qian Tao committed had spread extremely widely. This directly pushed the severity to the crime's upper limit: a three-year prison term. After the court's judgment, it was highly likely he'd get three years.
Having learned these two pieces of news, Qin Mu felt quite relaxed and happy.
Reborn into this world, he just wanted to live freely, easily, and enjoy this life to the fullest. These frustrating and suffocating things in life... he absolutely wouldn't tolerate them anymore!
