If this were in Macau, given Wen Ershao's status, he would never have ended up in jail.
But this is Hong Kong, not his territory.
Moreover, the young policewoman who arrested him clearly knew him, but instead of letting him go, she gave him a kick that could kill him. The Hong Kong police have been quite tough lately; even though the butler brought a lawyer, they still refused to release him.
The young master was arrested, and the butler was so upset that he was waiting outside the police station to wait out the time.
As a result, a large number of police officers rushed out and headed straight for Deming Hospital. The butler only found out from the servants at the hospital that the police had obtained the video of his second young master assaulting someone, and from now on, the second young master Wen was officially detained.
The housekeeper was naturally furious and immediately called Mingde's senior management to ask what had happened.
Upon hearing this question, he immediately suppressed his anger, hung up the phone, and quickly called his homeowner.
At this time, Chen Rou had also left the monitoring room and was in Bao Yuyan's ward.
Of course, there were maids from Macau, two old women who kept a close eye on things the whole time.
Mrs. Bao was also there, and because of the big commotion in the monitoring room, she knew that the police had obtained evidence.
But looking at her daughter in the hospital bed, she still chose to defend her son-in-law.
She said, "It's because Ayan has a bad temper and talks back to her son-in-law, otherwise he wouldn't have hit her."
Chen Rou glanced sideways and saw that the two old women from Macau were both nodding.
Bao Yuyan looked at Chen Rou but didn't speak. She just silently shed tears and then closed her eyes.
Chen Rou said to Mrs. Bao, "No matter the reason, assault is a criminal case."
Mrs. Bao said, "But they are husband and wife after all, and besides, Ayan..."
Bao Yuyan, unable to bear it any longer, interrupted her mother and said, "Mommy, it's not my fault, it's him, it's him..."
Mrs. Bao said, "He's in a bad mood. As his wife, you should understand him."
Chen Rou suddenly interjected, "I'm in a bad mood too, Mrs. Bao. Can I beat you up to vent my anger?"
Mrs. Nie was aloof and unsociable, and she didn't socialize with other women. Everyone was a little afraid of her.
Of course, she could also be quite sharp-tongued; this one sentence almost choked Mrs. Bao to death.
Fortunately, the servants brought drinks and fruit platters to entertain Chen Rou and her son, which changed the subject.
Mrs. Bao's own grandson is still in an incubator, and because his condition is very bad, the news is being suppressed.
Seeing Nie Zhao's chubby, fair-skinned son, she couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.
Picking up the fruit platter, she asked with a smile, "What would you like to eat, baby? Would you like Grandma to feed you?"
If A-Yuan goes outside, there's only one thing he'll be interested in: fried chicken.
He doesn't like fruit or anything like that, but he's very polite, waving his hand and saying, "Baby doesn't want it, thank you Grandma."
Mrs. Bao had no choice but to take back the fruit and let Chen Rou pass it. Seeing that Chen Rou wouldn't eat it, she had the maid remove it.
Then she said, "But they are husband and wife after all. It's normal for couples to have disagreements. Mrs. Nie, if you..."
She and Nie Zhao had a dispute, and she probably didn't want the police to get involved.
But Mrs. Bao could fool herself with these words, but she couldn't fool Chen Rou, because the cases she had dealt with in her previous life were not ordinary domestic violence cases, but all kinds of heinous cases of wife-killing. And domestic violence was often the beginning of wife-killing.
If it's anything else, even if you ask Chen Rou to take care of it, she's too lazy to bother.
But domestic violence is different from other things; its victims are often women, regardless of social class.
Of course, a woman's situation after experiencing domestic violence is greatly influenced by whether her family supports her. Those who are severely harmed are often those whose family refuses to provide support and who have no one to back them up.
Chen Rou was too lazy to chat with Mrs. Bao, so she said directly, "I don't have domestic violence here, I'm just a widow."
So what she meant was, if Nie Zhao dared to abuse her, she would dare to kill him?
These words, one after another, made Mrs. Bao want to say something in defense of her son-in-law, but she didn't dare to argue anymore.
Chen Rou doesn't speak empty words and always speaks with facts. She said, "According to professional data, 99% of 100 domestic abusers will apologize and promise to change after committing domestic violence, but 100% of them will commit domestic violence again."
Then Bao Yuyan said, "The probability of lifelong disability and death due to domestic violence is 30%."
Mrs. Bao finally tried to say something, but Chen Rou cut her off with one sentence: "He's getting old and he won't change. There's only one way to stop domestic violence: divorce."
Bao Yuyan grabbed Chen Rou's hand and blurted out, "Mommy, I want a divorce."
Knowing what her mother wanted to say, she also said, "He won't change. I know him better than you do. He won't."
In fact, Wen Ershao had hit her a few times before, but none of them were serious. He would immediately ask for forgiveness afterward, and Bao Yuyan would forgive him. She preferred to work with her mother-in-law on their business, since she had no feelings for her husband.
Her husband wasn't very capable and liked to have fun, while she was good at pleasing her mother-in-law, so their relationship was relatively harmonious.
But on the day she was about to give birth, the Second Young Master happened to hear about the Tamar shipwreck and saw on the news that Sir James had passed away. He happened to be in Hong Kong, where he was in charge of ocean shipping. He kicked Bao Yuyan to vent his anger.
At that time, Bao Yuyan didn't want to continue the marriage and wanted a divorce, but her mother persuaded her, saying it was because her son-in-law was in a bad mood.
Okay, Bao Yuyan tolerated it, and even when Nie Han asked her, she didn't tell the truth.
But last night was quite outrageous. For no reason, he suddenly started verbally provoking her after he came back. Bao Yuyan then prepared to leave, but Wen Ershao wouldn't let her go. He pulled, pushed, and even hit her, all without any reason.
