The crowd gradually dispersed downstairs at the family quarters.
Cheng Jiangkai arrived too late and regretfully missed witnessing the young girl's sacrifice for love.
A few people nearby were whispering about it, pointing and whispering upstairs.
"If you ask me, the Wang couple are confused. If someone wants to marry, then let her marry!"
Cheng Jiangkai immediately felt he had found a kindred spirit and quickly stepped forward, "You're absolutely right! I don't think the Wang couple should have stopped them from doing this!"
The others looked at him and remained silent for a moment.
Cheng Jiangkai remained oblivious and continued to express his opinion, "What era are we living in? Parents still interfere in their children's marriages. No wonder Xiao Song is so extreme."
"my country's Marriage Law states that marriage is a matter of freedom! As long as she reaches the legal marriage age, she has the freedom to marry, and her parents have no right to interfere!"
“Our school has an open-minded atmosphere and respects students’ individuality and freedom, so we should encourage such behavior.”
Those around him were stunned by his impassioned speech. "You're still planning to encourage us?"
Cheng Jiangkai: "Of course we encourage it. The school can't just expel Xiao Song because she's pregnant, right? You guys wouldn't suggest the school expel her either, would you?"
"No, not at all." Many people here have watched Song Wanning grow up. Although they are annoyed that the young girl is so clueless, they would not kick her when she is down.
Cheng Jiangkai: "Girls these days are too materialistic. They always want gold, silver, and dowries. Xiao Song is able to break through worldly views, and we should support her."
He couldn't stand women like Ruan Mingying; they were materialistic and shallow, only interested in rich people.
“Old Wang isn’t after the bride price… What makes that man worthy of Ningning?” an older woman couldn’t help but ask. “You have a daughter too, would you want your daughter to marry a hairdresser?”
Cheng Jiangkai: "..."
Of course not! His Jingru is so outstanding; she's destined to marry into a top-tier wealthy family!
The old lady is driving him crazy. Lately, she's been going around advocating for love and freedom to students, and I have no idea what her intentions are.
Several people left; they needed to find another place to talk, as they didn't want to talk to someone who couldn't see things clearly.
Cheng Jiangkai walked outside. He frequently visited Yunwu University for academic exchanges, but he always felt that those people were a bit arrogant.
He walked towards the experimental building, and just as he turned a corner, he saw a person standing under a sycamore tree.
Cheng Jiangkai hesitated for a moment, then walked over: "Xiao Gao."
She glanced at the filming equipment in his hand, paused, and said, "Don't worry, Xiao Song even threatened to jump off a building, which shows that she is determined to marry you."
Gao Hongguang looked up and smiled at him, "Professor Cheng, thank you for helping me find out the situation. I can't even get close to the family dormitory building; everyone is wary of me."
Cheng Jiangkai patted him on the shoulder: "You must hang in there, there are still many people supporting you."
Gao Hongguang smiled to himself, thinking, "Is that so? What a pity."
He knew that the seemingly respectable man in front of him had a beautiful daughter, but unfortunately, she wasn't his type.
Cheng Jiangkai felt uneasy under the young man's gaze and made up an excuse to leave.
After taking enough photos, Gao Hongguang put away his phone, left the school gate, and headed into the small street behind the school.
In the morning, many people had already set up stalls to do business, and the place was bustling with people.
A group of young people with dyed hair were buying snacks on the street. When they saw him, they hurriedly greeted him and called him "Brother Gao," their eyes full of envy.
Who wouldn't be envious? He's hooked up with the daughter of a law professor at Yunwu University. His future success is just around the corner.
As Gao Hongguang walked, he posted the video he had just filmed online. Then he checked his social media and saw that his number of followers had increased exponentially overnight.
Last night, he posted a video of several people breaking into his home and taking Song Wanning away. The video went viral online, with many people sharing it and condemning the elderly couple's violence.
Although many people criticize him, what does it matter? They're all just jealous.
He was jealous that he was deeply loved by such an outstanding girl, who was like a fairy.
A white-haired man approached Gao Hongguang and offered to light his cigarette for him. "Brother Gao, could you teach me? I'd like to find an only child from the city."
Women these days are very shrewd and not easily fooled. Some women in the village dare to ask for dowries of over ten thousand yuan; isn't that tantamount to killing their entire family?
If only I could marry a university professor in the city, and not only would I not ask for a dowry, but he would also give me several houses in the city.
Bai Mao knew Gao Hongguang had connections, so he paid a large sum of money to learn from him. People laughed at him for being stupid, but now it's his turn to laugh at others for being foolish.
"Brother Gao, you're really something. But that college student is such a love-struck fool; the more others object, the more she tries to prove her love. She's so stupid, hahaha..."
The white-haired man felt a chill run down his spine when the other person glanced at him, and he gave an awkward laugh that quickly faded.
"That's my wife, try saying it again!" Gao Hongguang pressed the lit cigarette butt against Bai Mao's hand.
A slight tearing sound came from his skin, and to his horror, the white-haired man realized that he could not feel any pain, nor could he make a sound!
Gao Hongguang threw away his cigarette butt and left. Only then did Bai Mao feel the burning pain in his hand and screamed in agony.
——
Mingzhuo glanced at the figure in front of him and clicked his tongue, "Quite alert."
This kid kept heading towards crowded places, where the presence of strangers is the easiest way to hide one's tracks.
Gu Xu thought for a moment, "You think it's harder to make a move when there are too many people? Actually, I can take action, knock him out when he's not paying attention, and then take him to the car."
