Tong Tong,
we've consulted a lawyer.
If a lot of people believe
your novel is about a specific person,
and that person suffers
negative consequences
because of your work,
they could sue you
for defamation.
I don't know these things.
I thought that as long as
I put at the beginning of the novel,
"This story is purely fictional;
please don't read yourself into it,"
it would be fine.
Besides,
Professor Xiang is such a good person.
How could I possibly harm him?
Professor Xiang
has now resigned because of you.
Back when you were selling shirts
in the school dorm,
Professor Xiang
used his school apartment quota
to protect you,
so you didn't get punished by the school.
What did you say?
You can check with the school
if it's true or not.
What you need to do now
is write a formal statement
clarifying that the story's main character
isn't Xiang Beichuan.
That way, even though he resigned,
he won't be too embarrassed
when he meets his old colleagues
or students in the future.
I know.
I'll do it.
I don't need you to tell me that.
