In the classroom, Teacher Youzi and Principal Fang bowed to Ning Wan, apologizing repeatedly.
Ning Wan waved her hands repeatedly: "It's not your fault."
If they were determined, how could this small kindergarten possibly stop them?
“There’s less than a month left before the holiday. I’d like to temporarily suspend Xiaoshu’s studies for the remaining time,” Ning Wan said.
This was not only to ensure Ning Yanshu's safety, but also to protect the other children in the kindergarten from harm.
Teacher Yuzu was a little reluctant, but she also knew that this was the best solution.
Ning Wan walked up to the children in the Sunflower Class, slightly bent her knees, and said softly, "Thank you for protecting the little mole today, thank you!"
"Auntie, will the little mole not come to kindergarten anymore? But we want to graduate with the little mole!" Long Aotian said, his voice choked with emotion.
It took him a lot of effort to become good friends with everyone.
"Yes, we promised to graduate together." Tang Tang was the first to break down in tears.
Wang Zihao, oblivious to his own embarrassment, buried his face in Teacher Youzi's arms and sobbed, "I can't bear to part with the little mole... Waaah..."
"Me too, boohoo..."
More and more cries rose and fell, echoing throughout the classroom. Ning Wan felt a pang of sadness as she listened.
But they clearly didn't do anything wrong...
...
Considering the potential impact on the children's mental health, the police instructed Ning Wan to take Ning Yanshu and Shen Xuxian home first.
Shen Yurong drove them back.
Throughout the journey, listening to Ning Yanshu's sobs from behind his seat, Shen Yurong felt a surge of anger in his heart with nowhere to vent.
What an adorable and mischievous child he was!
Look what these bastards have done to it...
...
Back home, Ning Wan placed Ning Yanshu on the sofa.
Before she could even get up to fetch a basin of water to wash his face, she was grabbed by the sleeve.
Ning Yanshu asked stubbornly, "Mom, when is Dad coming back? I want Dad to come back."
Ning Wan opened her mouth, but couldn't answer.
Ning Yanshu cried so hard she could barely breathe: "Is everything that uncle said true?"
“They said Dad was going bankrupt, and they said Dad was a bad person…”
Ning Wan did not answer Ning Yanshu's question directly, but instead patiently asked him, "Does Xiaoshu think his father is that kind of person?"
Ning Yanshu shook her head: "No. They've never spent time with Dad, they don't even know what Xiaoshu looks like..."
That was his father, whom he had finally managed to find.
"...They have no idea how good Xiaoshu's parents are. They've only heard it from others and have no evidence whatsoever. Mom has said that making up stories about others is extremely impolite."
Hearing Ning Yanshu's answer, Ning Wan felt a warmth in her heart: "So, Xiaoshu, whose words should we believe?"
Ning Yanshu looked up.
There were still tears in his eyes, but the initial confusion and bewilderment were gone.
His bright, piercing eyes, shining like stars, said firmly, "I don't trust anyone else, I only trust my father!"
“Xiao Shu did the right thing.” Ning Wan gently stroked his head and said softly, “There are many people in this world who are always limited by their own self-righteous understanding. They haven’t seen the whole picture of the facts, yet they go around proclaiming that they are right.”
"But those only represent their own personal opinions, not the truth. And the real truth will always come to light one day."
Ning Yanshu sniffed and nodded, seemingly understanding...
...
Affected by the rape case, Ning Wan's boxed lunch business plummeted.
Sometimes the store is open all day, but there isn't a single person in sight.
After washing the vegetables I bought, I put them in the refrigerator to store, but after two days, I had no choice but to throw them away.
Looking at the food in the trash can, Ning Wan felt extremely distressed.
Having gone through the previous kindergarten incident, Ning Yanshu has officially suspended her studies and is now staying at home.
He began a daily routine of going grocery shopping and running a shop with Ning Wan.
Days without playing with other children are boring, and Ning Yanshu often sits quietly in the shop, lost in thought.
Fortunately, Shen Xu was there to keep him company.
Shen Xu originally went to Lantian Kindergarten because of him. Now that Ning Yanshu has taken a leave of absence and is staying at home, there is naturally no need for him to go anymore.
The two of them would always sit in a corner of the shop, drawing and writing together.
Occasionally, Ning Yanshu would take out Monopoly and teach Shen Xu how to play, although he always lost.
Seeing Ning Yanshu regain her usual liveliness and cheerfulness with Shen Xu by her side, Ning Wan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief...
...
The online discussion intensified.
Shen Fu was so embarrassed that he would be pelted with rotten eggs whenever he went out.
There are far fewer security guards in the company than paparazzi reporters downstairs.
Shen Fu's every word and action is almost constantly being monitored.
This also made him afraid to go home.
Listening to the increasingly low and helpless voice on the other end of the phone, Ning Wan felt suffocated and powerless.
It felt as if a huge rock was pressing on her chest, making it hard for her to breathe.
Occasionally, some bloggers and TV programs, eager to capitalize on her popularity, would try to interview her.
Unable to bear the disturbance any longer, Ning Wan simply closed the shop and took a break.
Su Lin took advantage of this time to frequently appear on various news programs.
It has become a recent hot topic and internet celebrity.
In the video, she tries her best to portray the image of a pitiful mother seeking justice for her daughter.
As it turns out, Su Lin's tactic of pretending to be a victim to gain sympathy from others was used very cleverly.
Even the incident of Ning Jianshe's arrest and imprisonment has been dug up by some bloggers to scrutinize the details.
Ning Wan once tried to post anonymously online to speak out against the injustice done to Shen Fu and herself.
However, what she received in return was a barrage of insults.
Some people cursed her as a paid troll hired by Shen Fu; others said she would do anything immoral for money and deserved to be raped in the future.
Many radical netizens went directly to her personal page and left all sorts of offensive and obscene comments.
Ning Wan was forced to cancel her account again.
She tried hard to adjust her mood and restrain herself from looking at the negative comments.
But life must go on.
Just then, after a long period of silence, Shenhao Group finally released its first statement...
