Chapter 89: The Feng Family Incident

Although Feng Yaozu's character is not very good, he was able to seize the opportunity and expand the restaurant inherited from his father into a chain store in just a few years, and saved more than 1 billion yuan. He must be capable.

The alibi he made for his son five years ago cannot be said to be very thorough, but it was enough to exonerate him when the police did not have clear evidence to prove that Feng Can hit someone.

But he did not expect that the exact evidence that no one produced that year would appear five years later!

In the photo that Wen Yue took out, behind Feng Can was a blue sports car with its lights on, in front of him was the victim's body with blood all over the ground, and he had his mouth open, as if he was frightened.

In front of this photo, Feng Yaozu could not protect Feng Can no matter how powerful he was.

And because this incident was a big enough commotion, the police took it very seriously and specially sent a psychologist to interrogate Feng Yaozu and his family of three.

Among the three members of this family, Feng Yaozu's mouth was the hardest to pry open.

Most successful businessmen are shrewd. In order to do business well, they often have to deal with people in government departments and the police. They also often come into contact with them and know how to deal with them better.

Then there is Mrs. Feng. Although she is not as shrewd as Feng Yaozu, she remembers his instructions before the police came to her house. In addition, since it involves her son, she did not say a word after entering the police station

. Feng Can has the worst ability to withstand pressure.

Although after watching "Interview Appointment", Feng Yaozu went to the hospital overnight and told his son how to deal with the police. But Feng Can was drowsy at the time, and most of Feng Yaozu's confession went in one ear and out the other.

The next day, the police came to his house and asked him to cooperate in the investigation of the accident five years ago. He was still a little confused, and it took him a long time to react to what was going on. He finally remembered his father's instructions.

At first, Feng Can was ready to follow Feng Yaozu's instructions and not cooperate with the investigation. But the moment he saw the photo, his mind went blank, his face turned pale, and he forgot his father's explanation.

Later, in order to reduce the guilt, he took the initiative to confess Feng Yaozu and his wife, saying that it was Feng Yaozu who let him escape, and they also helped him to forge evidence, which had nothing to do with him.

In order to divide the three members of the Feng family, the police told Feng Yaozu and his wife Feng Can's confession when they interrogated them.

When Feng Yaozu learned that Feng Can had blamed all the responsibility on himself, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood and no longer wanted to help Feng Can get rid of the crime.

What's the point of helping such an ungrateful person! If he had known this, he should have sent this unfilial son to the police station and had a son when he received Feng Can's call five years ago. Why should he worry so much about him? Mrs.

Feng was a little confused when she knew that Feng Can had confessed and pushed the responsibility onto her and Feng Yaozu. However, after being confused, her thoughts were different from Feng Yaozu's.

Although Feng Yaozu values ​​Feng Can, he values ​​himself the most. He tried to fabricate an alibi to exonerate Feng Can because he didn't think the truth would be exposed. Moreover,

when he was young, he didn't value offspring. Even if he had women outside, he didn't think of getting them pregnant. When he found out that Feng Can had grown up, it was too late. At his age, he might not live to see another child grow up. He had to find a way to clean up Feng Can's mess, hoping that he would be more sensible when he grew up.

As a result, Feng Can didn't become sensible after graduating from college, and even became more of a jerk.

Feng Can's betrayal really hurt Feng Yaozu this time. He thought that with the advanced technology and the fact that he had so much money, would he still be worried about not having a son in the future? Why should he spend so much time on this street kid?

Feng Yaozu believed that he would have a son in the future, but Mrs. Feng thought that she was too old to have other children.

Mrs. Feng loved Feng Can very much and put him first in her heart, even she had to put herself behind him. So as long as Feng Can's guilt could be reduced, she would not mind going to jail.

Between her husband and her son, Mrs. Feng would always choose the latter unconditionally.

Therefore, although Feng Yaozu was very good at using the Spring and Autumn style of writing to reduce his role in fabricating Feng Can's alibi, his plan failed due to the drag of his wife and son.

After three days of trial, the police finally got a complete confession.

...

Usually, even if the case is clear, the trial will not be so fast, because the court has a lot of cases backlog and it takes a long time to schedule.

But because Wen Yue took Yu Xiaoying to the "Interview Appointment" episode, it set a new record since the program was launched. At least one-third of the people in Hong Kong watched this episode and sympathized with Yu Xiaoying, and have been putting pressure on the police and the government since then.

In order to calm the anger of Hong Kong citizens as quickly as possible, the court opened a fast track for this case. Less than half a month after the police received the confession, the court opened the trial.

On the day of the trial, Wen Yue and Yu Xiaoying both went to the scene.

Wen Yue didn't like watching the trial. Before she traveled through time, she always thought that the court was a place to uphold justice, where all crimes could be judged and all criminals would get their comeuppance.

Now she still believes in the first half of the sentence - the court is a place to uphold justice, but she has no hope for the second half, and the root cause is that Hong Kong abolished the death penalty.

If a thief goes to court and is sentenced to a few months in prison, you will feel that it is a comeuppance. If a

robber goes to court and is sentenced to a few years in prison, you will also feel that it is a comeuppance.

But what if a murderer goes to court and is sentenced to life imprisonment?

Obviously his sentence is longer, but neither the victim's family nor the bystanders will feel the satisfaction of retribution, and may even feel that it is far from enough.

After all, he lost his freedom, but the people he killed lost their lives.

Wen Yue attended this trial mainly because of Yu Xiaoying.

Although they have worked together once, she and Yu Xiaoying have not had much contact. So far, she has only met three or four times, but she admires each other very much.

Human nature is very complicated.

On the night when she appeared on "Interview Appointment" to talk about the past and exposed the actions of Feng Can and the Feng family, everyone who watched the show felt very sympathetic towards Yu Xiaoying.

After the show, many viewers came out to support Yu Xiaoying. All the news about her on TV and in newspapers were full of admiration and sympathy for her.

But as time went by, different voices gradually emerged. Some people said that Yu Xiaoying was too controlling and her son was too suffocating. Her son's increasingly rebellious behavior was probably caused by her.

Some people maliciously speculated that Yu Xiaoying's son might have been forced to death by her, otherwise why would he be wandering on the street at more than two o'clock in the morning? Some people even insulted

Yu Xiaoying, saying that she didn't know how to cherish her son when he was alive, and it would be fine if she regretted it after forcing the child to death. How can she pretend to be a good mother now?

Wen Yue felt that those remarks were too harsh.

Is Yu Xiaoying a perfect mother? Probably not.

But there are not so many perfect parents in this world. Wen Yue has lived two lives, but she has not met perfect parents.

Needless to say, Wen Rongsheng is a scumbag and favors boys over girls. Peng Lifen may love the original body, but she was too obsessed with brains when she was young and died very early. Her parents

in the previous life were similar to Wen Rongsheng, and they also favored boys over girls. Since her younger brother was born, her status in the family has plummeted.

It would be fine if she didn't feel loved, but she was obviously the little princess of the family before her younger brother was born... Such a gap made Wen Yue spend her entire adolescence in pain.

It was not until she was admitted to university and left home that she slowly reconciled with herself.

Wen Yue has known many people in her two lifetimes and has learned about the family situations of many people. She knows very well that perfect parents are rare.

Yu Xiaoying may not be perfect in being a parent, but she has actually tried very hard. Is she really harsh on her son and has a strong control desire?

According to the information extracted by the system, Wen Yue thinks not necessarily.

Yu Xiaoying's requirements for her son are indeed a bit high, but let alone the 1990s, even if it was another 30 years later, how many parents could really have no requirements for their children? And Yu Xiaoying was far from being harsh on her son.

Their mother-son relationship really took a sharp turn for the worse after Yu Xiaoying discovered that her son skipped classes and fooled around with bad boys. After discovering

how backward her son was, Yu Xiaoying's ideas were indeed a bit extreme, and she failed to guide her son onto the right path.

But is her son not at fault? If he could understand his mother's efforts and hang out with those bad boys less, would everything be different?

But both Yu Xiaoying and her son actually had a chance to change their ways, if Feng Can hadn't killed her son that night.

But there are no ifs in this world.

Yu Xiaoying's son was hit and killed, and she has lived in pain for the rest of her life.

So the root of all this is actually Feng Can, the perpetrator, but there are always some people in this world who think that they are the only one who is sober while everyone else is drunk, and instead of blaming the culprit, they try their best to pick on the victim.

In the eyes of these people, Yu Xiaoying's husband, who never missed his children's education and quickly started a new family and had children after his son's accident, is a good father.

Yu Xiaoying, who had to juggle career and family, became an incompetent mother after her son's death, trying to find the truth and seek justice for him.

It was really ironic.

Yu Xiaoying seemed unaffected by these discordant voices. She was calm during the trial and did not show any anger or dissatisfaction when she heard that Feng Can was sentenced to ten years.

But Wen Yue knew that these were just appearances, so after the trial, she invited Yu Xiaoying to a nearby cafe for a drink.

Yu Xiaoying accepted the invitation.

Arriving at the cafe, they each ordered a cup of coffee. Wen Yue also ordered two snacks. After the waiter brought all these, she said, "You look much more energetic."

Yu Xiaoying was stunned and said, "Thank you Miss Wen for helping me. If it weren't for you, I might..." She might have killed her enemy.

But she knew that this would not make her happy. What she wanted was not only revenge, but also the truth. She didn't want her son to die in vain.

For the truth, she was willing to put aside revenge for the time being. Anyway, she had waited for five years. Waiting for another two or three five years would make no difference to her.

It was because she knew Yu Xiaoying's plan that Wen Yue came to watch today's trial and asked her out for coffee.

Wen Yue can understand Yu Xiaoying. She also thinks that Feng Can's death is not a pity. But it's a pity that Yu Xiaoying finally got out of the Walled City, but was thrown into jail for such a scum.

Although in Yu Xiaoying's view, her son was hit and killed, her family was broken, and her life was over. But in fact, she is only 45 years old this year. Even if she lives to 70, it will take more than 20 years. She can start over.

But Wen Yue also knows that she is just a bystander. No matter how much she sympathizes with Yu Xiaoying, it is difficult for her to empathize with her experience. She thinks she can start over, but Yu Xiaoying may not think so.

So some things can't be said too clearly.

After thinking it over, Wen Yue asked, "What are your plans for the future?"

"Plans?" Yu Xiaoying was slightly stunned, then lowered her head and smiled bitterly, "I'm already this age, what plans can I have? Just find a job to make a living."

When Feng Can is released from prison, she will take him to hell with her.

Wen Yue pretended not to hear the meaning of her words and continued to ask, "Do you still plan to do sales?"

Yu Xiaoying was a clerk when she first joined the work, but she always wanted to take her mother out of the walled city, so she applied to be transferred to the sales department with a higher salary.

She was not a good talker. Her sales performance was very poor one month before her transfer. Her boss was very dissatisfied with her and issued an ultimatum at the end of the month, saying that she would be fired if she could not catch up with her sales performance in three months.

In order to stay, Yu Xiaoying studied product information and practiced various speech skills whenever she had free time. Her efforts were not in vain. Her sales performance was out of the bottom in the second month, and she became the sales champion of the department in less than half a year.

Before her son's accident, Yu Xiaoying was already a sales manager of a well-known company in Hong Kong, with a monthly salary of tens of thousands, more than three times that of her husband.

But after her son's accident, she was not in good condition. At that time, the company was in a critical period of power accumulation. After returning to work, she made a small mistake and was fired by the new company leader.

After leaving the company, Yu Xiaoying was in a daze for a long time before she finally found her goal again and began to investigate the Feng family. She worked for a while until she was short of money. After saving enough living expenses for the next few months, she resigned and focused on the investigation.

In those five years, Yu Xiaoying worked at least ten jobs, including being a store clerk, a restaurant waiter, and a salesperson in a company.

She did a good job in all these jobs, especially in the industries related to sales, where she could always get more commissions. But correspondingly, she could never stay in sales for long, because she was always thinking about investigating the truth of her son's death, and she would resign if her income was enough to cover the expenses in the next few months.

Now that the truth has come out, Feng Can was sentenced to ten years, and Feng Yaozu and his wife were sentenced to seven years and two and a half years respectively, which can be regarded as the punishment they deserved.

Even if Yu Xiaoying has other ideas, she will have to wait ten years. During this period, she has to make a living and must find another job.

Based on her past experience, it is definitely best to continue to do sales. First, she is good at it, and second, sales makes money quickly and has a higher return rate.

But Yu Xiaoying is a little hesitant, or confused.

In the past five years, she had only one goal. Whether she quit her job or worked, she was working hard to achieve her goal, so she had never been confused.

Now she also has only one goal, which is to wait for Feng Can to be released after serving his sentence and let him pay his blood debt. But in the next ten years, she doesn't need to exert any effort, just to stay alive.

It's good to stay alive, but how should she live?

Yu Xiaoying didn't know.

Seeing her confusion, Wen Yue asked tentatively: "Would you consider doing charity?"

"Doing charity?" Yu Xiaoying asked repeatedly, looking a little puzzled.

"I know a lot of people in charity foundations. Different charity foundations are mainly responsible for different projects. Some help orphaned elderly people, and some help abandoned children..."

Wen Yue thought about this and said, "These charity foundations are in great need of people. And because you have been on the show before, you are now a little famous in Hong Kong. If you are willing to work in the charity industry, you may be able to attract more people to participate. Of course, if you are not interested, forget it. As for work, you still have to choose what you are interested in."

Before this, Yu Xiaoying had never thought about doing charity. Although she had donated money in the past, she always felt that this industry was far away from her.

Listening to Wen Yue's words, she suddenly thought of those who supported her.

Although there have been some discordant voices recently, she always remembers those enthusiastic people. After opening her mind, she really wants to do something for the society before she dies.

But... Yu Xiaoying asked: "Then Miss Wen... what kind of project do you think is better for me to participate in?"

"It depends on what you think. If I give you a suggestion," Wen Yue said after a moment of hesitation, "you can go to a welfare home to work for a while."

"Orphanage..." Yu Xiaoying hesitated, lowered her head and stirred the coffee with a spoon, and raised her head after a long time, "Miss Wen, you may not know that many people have said that I am not a good mother recently. Going to a welfare home..." She lowered her head again and said with a trembling voice, "I'm afraid I can't do it well."

"But I don't think you're not a good mother," Wen Yue said, "Just like making mistakes when you first start working, the same is true when you first become a mother. We will keep repeating the process of making mistakes, recognizing mistakes, and correcting them. You have the opportunity to learn lessons and correct them, but the perpetrators have made you lose this opportunity."

Although Yu Xiaoying had always been very strong at the trial, how could she not feel anything when she saw those insults?

She had been living in pain and regret since her son's death, and when she saw the criticism of her published in the newspapers, she felt even more that she was the one who killed her son.

Listening to Wen Yue's comfort at this moment, Yu Xiaoying couldn't help but tear up: "Really? Am I really a good mother?"

"You are."

It is because Yu Xiaoying is a good mother that Wen Yue suggested that she work in an orphanage for a period of time. Contact with more children may allow her to empathize, gradually get out of the pain of losing her son, find a new pillar, and give up losing her freedom for the rest of her life in exchange for Feng Can's life.

Of course, this is the most ideal state.

Another possibility is that contact with more children cannot heal Yu Xiaoying's pain of losing her son, and ten years later she still insists on her current thoughts and chooses to kill Feng Can for revenge.

But Wen Yue has done everything she can, and no matter what choice Yu Xiaoying makes in the end, she can have a clear conscience.

...

A few days later, Wen Yue introduced Yu Xiaoying to the director of an orphanage in Hong Kong.

Hong Kong has a strong charitable atmosphere, and everyone from the rich to ordinary citizens is keen on donating, so most orphanages have good conditions, but the orphanage that Wen Yue introduced to Yu Xiaoying is not in good financial condition.

It's not that the director is greedy for money, on the contrary, the director of this orphanage is a person who is truly passionate about charity and compassionate.

When the charity industry was turbulent last year, this orphanage was one of the few charitable organizations that was not affected.

The orphanage's financial situation is not very good, mainly because the director has a more straightforward personality and is not very good at dealing with things, so the orphanage has not received many large donations since its establishment.

The scattered donations received each month are not much, and can only barely maintain the operation of the orphanage.

After knowing this, Wen Yue privately donated a sum of money to the welfare home. This money was not much for her, but it greatly improved the living conditions of the children in the welfare home.

So when the director learned that Wen Yue wanted to introduce someone to work in the welfare home,... well, she didn't agree without saying anything, but she didn't refuse it in a stern manner. She just asked to meet the person.

Although Wen Yue was the sponsor of the welfare home, for the sake of the children in the welfare home, she couldn't just accept strangers to work in the welfare home. At least she had to make sure that the other person had no problem with his character.

After meeting Yu Xiaoying, the director of the welfare home was relieved.

The director had read the news and knew about Yu Xiaoying's past. He sympathized with her experience very much. After a brief chat, the director took Yu Xiaoying to meet the children in the welfare home and let her be alone with the children for a while.

Yu Xiaoying was a little uncomfortable at first, but she soon softened her heart and took good care of the children.

The dean saw this and agreed to let her stay.

As Yu Xiaoying got a job, Wen Yue's case against Feng Can for intentional homicide also went to trial.

To outsiders, as Feng Can was sentenced to prison, the conflict between him and Wen Yue was also resolved. After all, everyone knew that Yu Xiaoying was brought in by Wen Yue.

She broke Feng Can's leg and used Yu Xiaoying to send Feng Can to prison. The revenge should have been enough.

But Wen Yue didn't intend to let it go.

Feng Can was sentenced to ten years in prison because he hit and killed Yu Xiaoying's son and fled, which is different from deliberately hitting her bodyguard's car.

So after Feng Can went to jail, Wen Yue still insisted on suing Feng Can for intentional homicide.

The Feng family had also sued Wen Yue for intentional injury. The Feng family was in the catering business, so Feng Can's speeding and hit-and-run were fine, but Feng Yaozu knew what his son had done and didn't send him to the police station. He also helped to forge an alibi, which aroused the anger of the citizens.

So after the incident was exposed, all the major restaurants under Feng Ji were deserted, and the stock price also ushered in a sharp drop. After the trial, Feng Ji officially went bankrupt.

However, the Feng family is different from the Xu family. The Xu family is involved in the black industry, so all the stolen money was confiscated and a fine was imposed. Although Feng Yaozu was guilty, there was no big problem in the operation of the company, so he was still very rich after bankruptcy.

But his current wealth is incomparable to that before bankruptcy. It is unknown whether he can make a comeback with this money after he is released from prison. In addition, Feng Can's temporary betrayal made Feng Yaozu very disappointed, so he did not plan to recognize this son, and planned to find someone to have another child after he was released from prison.

Therefore, Feng Yaozu did not plan to care about his son Feng Can, let alone spend money to hire a well-known lawyer to sue him.

Mrs. Feng was furious when she found out about this. She thought that men were heartless. She wanted to help Feng Can, but she had never made money in her life and did not have much savings, which was not enough to hire a lawyer for Feng Can.

As for Feng Can himself, he no longer cared.

When he was still the eldest son of the Feng family, he really could not stand the humiliation. After his legs were broken, he was obsessed with revenge on Wen Yue. After becoming a prisoner, the anger in his chest had long dissipated, and he did not have the courage to confront Wen Yue.

Of course, he did not have the money to confront others, although as long as the lawsuit could be won, he did not need to bear the expenses. But Wen Yue, needless to say, must have hired a gold medal lawyer, and he was in prison and could not contact a well-known lawyer.

If he hired a random lawyer, even if he was right, the lawyer might not be able to win the case against the top lawyer hired by Wen Yue, not to mention that he was not right in this case, so it was unknown whether he could win the lawsuit.

Feng Can was so arrogant before, relying entirely on his parents. Now that he has lost the financial support of Feng Yaozu, he is scared and decided to withdraw the lawsuit after much thought.

But he withdrew the lawsuit, but Wen Yue did not, so he still had to respond to the lawsuit.

Feng Can thought that there was not much difference between ten years and fifteen years in prison, so he did not spend money to hire a lawyer this time. In the end, it was a trainee lawyer doing legal aid who defended him. The big man versus the rookie, the result was terrible.

Although Feng Can turned the steering wheel in the video but did not hit the car, and no one was injured in the end, the police did a urine test on him before the deadline, and it was indeed problematic, confirming the charge of drug driving.

So the trial ended and Feng Can's sentence was postponed for a few years.
