With tears in his eyes, Mr. Qiao asked, "Son, how much pain did you feel at that time that made you choose to jump off the building and end your life? Did it hurt?"
It hurts, of course it hurts!
How can it not hurt to be torn to pieces?
Qiao Tianrui lowered his head and sobbed continuously, feeling extremely mixed emotions.
Mother Qiao wiped the tears from her eyes and sniffed softly, "Son, please forgive me for being distant from you over the years, but Dad and Mom have always loved you!"
"Not long after you left, fans often came to the store to make trouble, saying you were a coward and a wimp, and that leaving without considering their feelings was irresponsible to them."
"We tried to call the police, but they were quiet when they arrived, and continued to cause trouble after they left. They came almost every day, and the neighbors were afraid to buy from them. Our business has plummeted!"
Wen Wan was furious when she heard this. What was wrong with these troublemakers? They were upset and just went to other people to make trouble? Were they the only ones in the world who felt bad?
Aren't Mr. and Mrs. Qiao heartbroken over the sudden loss of their son? Why are they making things difficult for each other when they're all so grieving?
She suddenly felt powerless, because it would be useless even if she blamed those people now.
Based on her understanding of that group of people, they would not feel sorry for this at all. They would only use various excuses to shirk responsibility, saying that they were young and ignorant, but they were also impulsive.
These reasons are bullshit. Being young is not a reason to do wrong things. No matter how young, one should be responsible for his or her actions. Besides, "If a child is not well educated, it is the fault of the father." If a child can be educated like this, it can only be said that the parents are rubbish!
Moreover, their actions have already caused serious consequences, and even if they know they are wrong, they cannot change the reality!
In fact, most fans are reasonable, but the group base is large. There are all kinds of birds in the forest. No matter how capable the artist is, it is impossible to control everyone. After all, everyone has different ideas, and there will always be a few idiots among them.
But... the Qiao family's silent loss is really infuriating!
She took deep breaths repeatedly to suppress the urge to curse, but she never expected that this was just the tip of the iceberg, and what followed was even more infuriating.
Mother Qiao dug out the dusty memories from her mind and slowly recounted the painful experience. "We can still endure all this. At worst, we can just close the shop for a few days. They won't be able to find us, and it will get boring if time passes."
"But what your father and I didn't expect was that not only were they causing us trouble, but even some strangers on the street would point and criticize us when they saw us."
"Some of the bolder ones even came up to us and asked if we were the parents of Qiao Tianrui, the man who recently committed suicide. Then they would madly belittle us, saying that we were mentally fragile and couldn't handle the pressure."
"You're earning such a high salary, yet you're still committing suicide because you're unhappy. That's really ungrateful!"
Zhou Ziheng and Yin Jingshuo's faces became increasingly gloomy. After all, anyone would be angry if such a disgusting thing happened to them, let alone these were their friend's parents.
Wen Wan also hardened her fists. Anyone who could say such sarcastic words must have been humiliated in his previous life. It was not enough for him to be humiliated behind others' backs, but he had to be humiliated in front of others. It really exposed him!
These people clearly don't know the truth of the matter, don't know what happened to Qiao Tianrui, so why do they say he's weak-minded and ungrateful? Are they trying to show off their superiority?
Who could possibly endure Fang Cheng's devilish torture? He pretended to be so clueless, even stabbing someone in the back. He was such a jerk!
Don't you understand the principle that the dead are the greatest? Qiao Tianrui's body was still warm at the time, and these people dared to be so presumptuous. Are they really not afraid of retribution?
She couldn't help but feel a little worried as she thought about it, and quickly turned her head to look at Qiao Tianrui.
Qiao Tianrui was lowering his head at this time, so his expression could not be seen, and no one knew what he was thinking.
But Wen Wan knew that he must be feeling uncomfortable, so she reached out and patted his back gently.
Mother Qiao still remembered what these people said. Even after four years, she still couldn't help but feel angry when she mentioned it. She seemed to want to pour out all the complaints in her heart and continued, "Son! I don't understand... I don't understand!"
"You lost your life in pain, and we lost you in pain too. We didn't cause any trouble to anyone, so why do they point fingers at us and make things difficult for us?"
"We're clearly suffering more, so why are they blaming us like victims? Who are we hurting? Aren't we the ones being hurt?"
The people nearby were deeply moved when they heard this. Yes, it was obviously the Qiao family members who were hurt. Why did those perpetrators who used injuries as an excuse to claim that they were victims?
It's fine if those fans are irrational, after all, they think Qiao Tianrui is trying to evade responsibility, but why do strangers who have nothing to do with him have to make such a fuss?
Father Qiao reached out to support his emotionally agitated wife and continued to explain, "Tianrui, my son! Moving out of our original home, no longer continuing the business, no longer coming to see you, and drawing a clear line between us and everything you have—all of this was my idea and has nothing to do with your mother!"
"We've suffered so much, and it's fine as long as we endure it for a while, but...but your sister is often bullied at school. You know that children's careless words can be the most hurtful."
