Chapter 189: Unexpected Events (Page 1/2)
Losing a child is certainly hard, but you can't let it ruin the rest of your life.
Mother Wu held her daughter's hand and said earnestly, "Wen Wan, you are still young. Take good care of yourself and you will have children again. There is no need to sacrifice the rest of your life for Shen Jiao."
"Look, the prefect doesn't blame you, so why are you being so hard on yourself?"
"Let your mother-in-law say whatever she wants. You live your life with the prefect. As long as the prefect's heart is with you, her opinion is not that important."
"Don't let your emotions control your thoughts. We are an innocent family. If you want Chen Jiao to be punished, you have to be careful about the method. It's not right to keep her locked up like this."
Mother Wu was really afraid that Wu Wenwan would kill Chen Jiao in a fit of anger.
"Why don't we take care of her and send her to the police station once her injuries are healed? She's already sixteen years old, so she can be held criminally responsible."
Wu Wenwan disagreed, saying the legal sanctions were too light for her.
Besides, Chen Jiao has a history of mental illness. Who knows if this will affect the verdict.
Neither mother nor daughter could convince the other. Wu Wenwan turned away angrily and said to her mother, "I want to be alone for a while. You can go back first."
Mother Wu stood up disappointedly.
"Think about it carefully. Call me if you have anything."
After Zhang Yuelan received a call from Chen Baomei, she thought for a moment and immediately called her relatives and friends in the village to come and help.
There is strength in numbers. If we bring more people with us, we will be more confident and won’t have to worry about Wu Wenwan not handing over the people.
Chen Jiao can be sold for hundreds of thousands of yuan.
If she doesn't find the person, not only will she have to return the hundreds of thousands of yuan, but she will also have to return the 60,000 yuan she has.
Gathering seven or eight relatives and friends, including two or three elderly people in their seventies or eighties who had one foot in the coffin, Zhang Yuelan led them to Wu Wenwan's home.
Not only did she bring people over, she also followed Chen Baomei's advice and called the police.
When Wu Wenwan received the call in the hospital, her face turned green.
She didn't expect that Zhang Yuelan, a village woman, would come to her and even know her address!
Although it was Shen Jiao who made the mistake first, would there really be any problems if I beat Shen Jiao like that?
Wu Wenwan was uneasy for a moment.
She was too busy feeling sad about the miscarriage to care about it, and she quickly contacted a lawyer to ask if she needed to bear legal responsibility.
Unable to withstand the persistence of Zhang Yuelan and her group and the intimidation of the police, Shen Jiao was rescued.
When Chen Jiao was carried out of Wu Wenwan's basement, he was breathing less and more.
Seeing Chen Jiao covered in bruises, Zhang Yuelan cried out and rushed over.
"Damn Wu Wenwan, what on earth did she do to my child!"
"My son, isn't it good to be with me? I told you not to run around but you refused to listen. Look at yourself, you are suffering now."
"It's all my fault that I'm useless and can't give you the rich life you want, so you've suffered like this. That bitch Wu Wenwan, not only didn't want to support you, but she also beat you up like this, my poor son..."
Zhang Yuelan howled loudly, but unfortunately, not a single tear came out.
The police officer urged, "The child is in a bad condition, call an ambulance immediately."
Zhang Yuelan was stunned. "Huh?"
"Call an ambulance! She's almost dead!!!"
"Hey, hey, how do we call an ambulance?"
Calling an ambulance costs money, and Zhang Yuelan was reluctant to spend money on this damn girl Chen Jiao, so she pretended to be stupid and didn't know how to contact an ambulance.
Finally, the police officer who was involved in the rescue called the emergency number.
The ambulance came out of the hospital, and the police car escorted Shen Jiao out to meet him halfway.
On the way, Zhang Yuelan grabbed one of the policewomen and asked nervously, "Little sister, I don't have to pay for all the expenses of going to the hospital, right?"
Chen Jiao was beaten like that. How much will it cost to treat him?
Besides, Chen Jiao is almost dead, and it is unknown whether he can be saved. If she spends the money but dies, then she will lose both her money and her life!
"Wu Wenwan was the one who beat us up. Shouldn't she pay for the hospitalization and medicine? She should also compensate us for our losses, right?"
The policewoman is no stranger to such things.
Although Zhang Yuelan cried loudly, anyone with a discerning eye could see that she didn't love her daughter at all.
Asking her to pay for the child's treatment would be more painful than cutting her flesh.
The policewoman explained to her that she could claim compensation from the abuser for these expenses, but in an emergency she would still have to pay the expenses herself.
When Zhang Yuelan heard that she had to pay the expenses herself, she refused to do it.
In the end, the female police officer patiently persuaded her, saying that the police would bring a public prosecution, and that a lawyer would help her recover all the expenses for her hospitalization. In addition to this money, there would also be a certain amount of mental damage compensation, and if she was disabled, there would also be disability compensation, etc.
Seeing that it was profitable and there was extra money to be made, Zhang Yuelan reluctantly paid the hospital bill.
After Chen Jiao was admitted to the hospital, the police contacted Wu Wenwan.
Wu Wenwan has learned from her lawyer that she is likely to be held legally responsible.
The police coming to her door in person made her even more frightened.
Wu Wenwan was suspected of criminal offenses and was originally going to be taken back for investigation.
Considering that she had just had a miscarriage at an advanced age, the statement was taken in the ward.
The man was brought out from her house, and the person who did it for him also confessed, clearly stating that he was instructed by Wu Wenwan to attack Shen Jiao.
Wu Wenwan initially denied it, saying she had no idea about it.
"I'm innocent. After Chen Jiao pushed me onto the table, I was sent to the hospital and never returned. The surveillance footage at home proves it! They must have taken it upon themselves to help me vent my anger, so they did this."
"I've been in the hospital for three days, and I had no idea Chen Jiao was still at my house. He was even locked up in the basement without a drop of water!"
She thought that by denying it she could escape the charge of imprisonment and torture, but the driver who worked for her was not someone to be trifled with.
After Wu Wenwan had a miscarriage during cervical puncture, she contacted the other party by phone and instructed him to do things for her.
The driver has always been cautious and his cell phone always keeps the automatic recording function on.
When the police came looking for him and the matter was exposed, he had already taken the initiative to hand over the recording of his conversation with Wu Wenwan to the police.
The police played back the phone calls in which Wu Wenwan repeatedly instructed the driver to abuse Shen Jiao.
When she heard her own voice, her face turned pale and her whole body began to tremble uncontrollably.
At this moment, there was only one voice in her mind.
"It's over."
As her mother said, her life is over.
Chen Jiao's condition is very serious and the doctor said he may not wake up.
After Wu Wenwan's body had almost recovered, she was detained by the police.
After enduring day after day in there, the devastated Wu Wenwan finally began to pray to God to let Chen Jiao wake up soon.
Unfortunately, things did not go as planned and Chen Jiao died in the ward.
