"I didn't lie, and I certainly didn't slander anyone," Lin An said in a pained tone, his eyes slightly red.
“Who would smear the person who gave birth to them? Especially someone like me, who grew up in an orphanage and longed for family affection.”
“I was lost by my parents when I was two years old. I lived in an orphanage until I was eighteen. I was found and brought home when I was eighteen. I thought home was a warm harbor, but all I got was indifference. Warmth was reserved for my illegitimate brother. I had nothing and was even kicked out of the house. We had long since severed ties.”
"Everything I have today was earned by myself without receiving a single bit of help from Lin Haoran. I don't want to talk about the hardships involved."
After saying this, Lin An covered his face. Life is like a play, and it all depends on acting skills.
Everyone finally understood: this bastard had never raised a son; he was just a local thug who was trying to extort money from his son because the boy had become successful.
The number of viewers in the live stream instantly exceeded 100,000, and everyone felt sorry for Lin An.
"Oh my god, the poor boy is so pitiful."
"How could his parents be so heartless? They finally found their child, and they still treat him badly."
"Waaaah, poor little brother."
"His dad actually had the nerve to come begging for money, he deserves to die!"
The young people in the crowd were particularly angry. They knew better than anyone how difficult life was without their parents' help, given the high housing prices and immense pressure of daily life.
"A shameless old vampire who takes advantage of his age, treating having children as a highly profitable investment."
"To give birth and not raise is worse than pigs and dogs!"
Some generous young people simply threw their milk tea at Lin Haoran.
The middle-aged women surrounding Lin Haoran took the opportunity to spit in his face:
"You bastard, you beast!"
Looking at the indignant crowd, Lin An continued:
“He was not only a bad father, but also a bad son. He squandered all the wealth that my grandfather had worked hard to accumulate throughout his life.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the two old men who had insisted on holding the banner for the sake of one hundred yuan both threw it down.
"Hey, the old man's got a temper!"
They work so hard, isn't it all to save more money for their child? At this age, they hate spendthrifts the most. If they meet someone like Lin Haoran, they'll have wasted their whole lives, and they'll be so angry they could die.
The two old men walked unsteadily toward Lin Haoran. Everyone respected the elderly and made way for them.
The two men used their canes to hit Lin Haoran, cursing as they did so.
"You good-for-nothing spendthrift, I'll beat you to death."
"Shameless and incompetent, just go die and stop causing trouble for the children."
Lin Haoran only had a few coins in his pocket and dared not fight back against the old man. The wooden stick struck him, causing him to howl in pain. He could no longer argue with Lin An and kept begging for mercy.
"Stop hitting me! Stop hitting me! I was wrong!"
"Someone help! Call the police!"
Nobody cared what Lin Haoran was saying. Now, people of all ages, men and women, from all walks of life, hated Lin Haoran. It was a rare opportunity for everyone to find such a perfect common enemy.
However, the surrounding businesses have already called the police. Lin Haoran's outburst has blocked their shop entrances, which is seriously affecting their business.
A few minutes later, a police car pulled up nearby, and a team of officers came over and stopped the two old men.
Xu Mo immediately signaled to his employees to stop the live stream.
The two old men were in their eighties. The police officer gave them a lecture, saying that hitting people is wrong, and even if he were an animal, you can't hit him.
The two old men humbly accepted the lesson, and as the crowd dispersed, they squeezed onto the bus and went home.
Lin Haoran felt like he had finally found a savior. He grabbed the police officer and said, "Officers, you've finally come! You have to stand up for me! Lin An is my son! My own son! He has an obligation to support me. I'm bankrupt now and have nowhere to live. He's so rich, yet he doesn't care about me at all. This is elder abuse. You have to take care of him for me."
Xu Mo quickly stepped forward and explained, "That's not how it is, he..."
The lead officer waved his hand, indicating that Xu Mo didn't need to explain. They had watched Lin An's live stream on their way here and were fully aware of the situation.
He said coldly to Lin Haoran, "Please show me your ID card."
After verifying Lin Haoran's identity, the police officer told him, "You cannot ask him to support you now. Legally, how much money he has is none of your business."
Lin Haoran said anxiously, "I'm his biological father! He's rich, why doesn't he support me or give me money to spend?"
The police officer patiently explained, "Parents can only ask their children to support them if they have lost their ability to work, have no income, or have insufficient income to maintain the basic standard of living in the local area."
“The minimum wage in our city is a little over a thousand yuan. I see you're in good health. If you can't find a job that pays a little over a thousand yuan, we can help you find one. Anyway, you don't meet the criteria for being supported by your children right now, understand?”
"I don't care about any of that! Lin An has to give me the money today, or I'm not leaving. I'll sit here, without eating or drinking! I'll cling to him even if it kills me!"
Lin An's face was extremely ugly. He felt deeply ashamed to have the blood of such scum flowing through his veins.
The police officer stared coldly at Lin Haoran, who was sitting on the ground, and bit his lip.
It's enough to see scoundrels throwing tantrums every day.
He waved to his subordinates behind him and ordered, "Come, take him back."
Two police officers stepped forward, pulled Lin Haoran up, and quickly handcuffed him.
Lin Haoran was bewildered by this scene and asked in a panic, "Officer, have you arrested the wrong person? He's the one who doesn't support me, why are you arresting me?"
The officer glanced at him and said calmly, "You are involved in disorderly conduct and endangering public safety. According to the Public Security Administration Punishment Law, you will be detained for fifteen days."
"Come back to the station with us to fill out some forms, and then we'll take you to the detention center."
Lin Haoran immediately struggled: "How can you distort the truth and frame an innocent person? Let me go!"
The officer frowned and said coldly, "If you don't believe me about demanding support from your children, you can sue them in court and let the court decide. But you can't incite a crowd to cause trouble, especially by hiring people to cause trouble or falsely accuse and slander others. That's illegal."
He then warned, "You'd better behave yourself. If you refuse to cooperate and injure a police officer, it could be considered obstruction of official duties, and you could be sentenced to prison."
If it weren't for the restrictions imposed by their police uniforms, the officers would have loved to slap Lin Haoran, that complete scumbag, twice.
Lin Haoran finally realized the seriousness of the situation and cried desperately, "Officer, I was wrong. I only did this because I have nowhere else to go. Please have pity on me."
The officer ignored him and coldly ordered, "Take him away!"
