“Yes,” Bai Guixiang nodded. “Her husband was stolen away by a mistress, and she’s having a really tough time raising her daughter… Miss Han, you’re rich and powerful, please, let her go…”
Most of the people around didn't know the specifics, but that didn't stop them from making up their own stories, and so all sorts of rumors started to circulate.
Some people even shouted at Le Yao, "How can you bear to make an old man kneel like this?"
Qin Ke was furious upon hearing this and went straight to the person: "Do you know the whole story? Do you know the truth?"
"Exactly, you know what? Asking questions without knowing anything makes you seem knowledgeable, doesn't it?" The other waiters also joined in, determined not to allow their shop and people to be smeared.
"I..." The man was taken aback by the question.
"Malicious speculation and defamation also come with consequences." Qin Ke then looked at the people filming the videos. "You had better be truthful. If you dare to edit the videos to mislead the audience, then you'd better wait for a lawyer's letter, hmph."
Qiao Qiao smiled and glanced at Qin Ke. This girl is quite something. Although it's a part-time job, her mindset is very positive. It looks like she'll get a raise.
Sure enough, Qin Ke's words made everyone around her much more cautious.
Bai Guixiang felt a little guilty at first glance, but then she remembered the money the man had given her, and she immediately felt better. Anyway, her son was right there, and these people wouldn't dare to do anything to her. She couldn't help but waile again, "Miss Han, please don't let my daughter go to jail! You're so kind. If she goes to jail, what will happen to her daughter? Oh dear, my poor granddaughter..."
A cold glint flashed in Le Yao's eyes. After Yu Fang identified Han Xueqian, she donated money to her daughter. However, that woman had already broken the law, so she would definitely have to serve her sentence. In the blink of an eye, her mother came to make trouble. This was not asking for forgiveness; it was trying to put her in the spotlight.
"Damn it." A murderous glint flashed in Qiao Qiao's eyes.
Le Yao held her hand and whispered a few words in her ear.
Qiao Qiao smiled and nodded, then turned and went back into the shop.
"Auntie, your misery is my fault?" Le Yao looked at Bai Guixiang. "Is your misery a reason for your daughter to kill someone?"
Bai Guixiang was displeased upon hearing this: "Miss Han, although it wasn't your fault, don't you have any compassion at all? You're not short of money, and you're fine now... Look, my family is already in such a terrible state, how can you bear to make things worse for us? Where is your conscience?"
Le Yao was so angry she laughed. Damn it, these people are really something else. I'm poor, so I'm right. I'm weak, so I'm right. Even if I'm wrong, you're rich and capable, so you have to forgive me. Otherwise, you're heartless and have no conscience.
And among the onlookers, many clearly shared the same thought.
Just then, the display screen on the wall next to the shop door suddenly flashed, and the next moment it showed the verdict of the police and the court in Yu Fang's attempted murder case, followed by Yu Fang's confession.
These can actually be found online, because the case was tried publicly at the time.
Then came a video of Le Yao's wire breaking and her falling to the ground, with Nangong Jue catching her, followed by the hospital's diagnostic report...
The onlookers immediately erupted in an uproar.
Bai Guixiang's face immediately froze.
