The conference room on the side of the main building was filled with heated arguments among several professors and college leaders.

Secretary Yang clearly hoped that the school could directly resolve this matter without putting pressure on the students who had achieved good results.

In this way, there were indeed not many good solutions. The professors offered many suggestions, but upon careful consideration, each one seemed to have its pros and cons. They all stuck to their own opinions and failed to reach a consensus.

At this moment, President Fu entered the room, and everyone's gaze immediately turned towards him, causing the previously lively conference room to fall into a strange silence. Meng Fanqi felt extremely embarrassed as soon as he stepped in.

"Deqing, what's going on? I told you to comfort the students and not let them be affected by public opinion. Why did you bring him here?" Secretary Yang didn't know who this student was, but he had arranged for President Fu, who had been working with this student, to contact him. Naturally, Secretary Yang could guess what had happened.

His intention was to do some ideological work for Meng Fanqi. Secretary Yang attached great importance to this aspect.

The mental resilience of many college students is far more fragile than people imagine because they have been studying hard in the campus. Many of them have been well protected by their parents and teachers since childhood.

Some students often work part-time and have more contact with society, so they tend to have stronger mental strength. However, there are also many students whose lives are very simple, and they are easily overwhelmed when they encounter certain things, leading them to do foolish things.

When Secretary Yang was young, he had lost a very outstanding student. Although he still couldn't understand the reason why that student chose to commit suicide over some trivial matters, it gradually made him attach great importance to the education policy regarding students' mental health and psychological issues.

"Secretary Yang, it wasn't my idea to bring him here. He insisted on coming himself." President Fu said helplessly.

Secretary Yang adjusted his reading glasses and looked at Meng Fanqi, who was following behind President Fu. The other teachers also noticed this student for the first time and exchanged glances with each other.

"Meng, come here and have a seat. I want to understand the specific reasons and circumstances behind your suspension." Secretary Yang pulled out a chair next to him and gestured for Meng Fanqi to sit down.

"Secretary Yang, please go ahead and ask."

"First of all, I want to know if you encountered any difficulties in your studies or any personal problems that caused conflicts with your classmates or teachers."

Although the school's affairs were urgent, Secretary Yang still prioritized the student's situation.

"Secretary Yang, please rest assured. President Fu, my parents, and I have already been asked these questions many times." Meng Fanqi originally thought that his suspension would be kept secret, but he didn't expect it to become such a big deal.

Administrative teachers and leaders from various colleges and universities were gathered here, listening to Secretary Yang's inquiry about this matter.

"It's purely because my personal interests and talents don't match my major. I hope to take a year off to confirm my goals and see if I can achieve some results. After all, if I continue to work hard in the wrong direction, it will only lead to wasted efforts."

"Are there no other reasons? You can tell me if there are any problems." Secretary Yang still had concerns and asked again.

"From the results, your choice seems to be correct." A professor from the Computer Science and Software Engineering department interjected, "It hasn't been long, but you have already published such a high-quality paper."

"In fact... during this period of time, with President Fu's guidance, I have already prepared seven or eight articles." The reason why Meng Fanqi chose to come forward and clarify the situation was because of this.

"So I was thinking, if we don't resolve this issue together with the school this time, it may continue to affect the school in the future whenever I achieve something."

Secretary Yang: "...."

The other professors were also speechless.

Indeed, this was the truth. If it wasn't resolved, every time Meng Fanqi made any achievements, someone might bring up this matter again.

However... it sounded so strange that an undergraduate student could produce seven or eight papers in just half a year.

The conference room fell into a strange silence once again. After a while, Secretary Yang coughed twice and secretly asked President Fu with his eyes, "Is what this kid said true?"

President Fu nodded slowly and added, "And the quality of the papers is quite high."

This achievement was truly unbelievable, but everyone present trusted President Fu. With him as a collaborator, everyone acknowledged this achievement.

"We all know that this paper has received a very good response, but we didn't know that you had many other achievements. This should have been a good thing, but now it has been used as a weapon to attack the school by someone with ill intentions."

"I'm touched and feel guilty that you are willing to come forward to clarify and defend the school's reputation. Although young people are more knowledgeable about the internet than us old folks, once you step onto the stage to express your views in such a social event, there will inevitably be many irrational or malicious people who will swarm in and attack you with vicious words."

In other words, it's online violence. Meng Fanqi understood what Secretary Yang was worried about.

Many people may underestimate the power of online violence, thinking that it's just fake names on the internet.

But in reality, if hundreds or thousands of people flood your screen with insults, opening a certain app will show 999+ messages full of baseless malice.

This is something that most people find difficult to bear.Cyberbullying often comes with the leakage of personal information. These perpetrators often see themselves as the embodiment of justice, yet they frequently expose all the victim's information online without fully understanding the facts.

When such malice can be felt in reality, its power can rise several orders of magnitude, leaving people in constant fear.

"Secretary Yang, rest assured, I know what I'm doing." This incident wasn't too bad, Yuan Zhouzi's main target was the school's reputation, using himself as a tool to deliberately elevate it, so no one is attacking him at the moment.

After coming forward to clarify, at most, some people would curse him as a running dog. Meng Fanqi felt he could handle it completely. It's still uncertain who will end up cursing whom when the time comes.

"Alright, the school will make a public response to the public opinion this afternoon. We hope you will cooperate with us and explain the situation on several major affected platforms."

"No problem."
