"What do you mean by that? Are you saying that since we can't find the person, I'm just going to suffer in silence?" the man said anxiously. "Go ahead and investigate! Find out who it is and then put them in jail, right? Otherwise, what's the point of having police officers?"
"Our duty as police officers is to punish evil and promote good, and to bring the guilty to justice." The police officer looked at him coldly. "It's just a pity that justice is not fair, and some evil people can still roam around here. It is really our dereliction of duty."
"How dare you speak like that!" The man was instantly enraged. "Are you implying something about me? I'm going to file a complaint against you!"
"You can file a complaint anytime. Goodbye."
"Stop right there! What do you mean? Come back here..."
......
With Sun Chen's consent, Xu Lai accompanied her to the hospital to see her grandfather.
Previously, some media outlets contacted Sun Chen, wanting to provide full coverage of the incident. Sun Chen agreed, and the reporters followed him to the hospital and filmed the entire process.
Qiao Wanwan wasn't present, but she heard that the old man fainted on the spot when he saw his granddaughter's appearance. He was rescued and didn't wake up for several hours.
Sun Chen was unable to speak and was in tears the whole time, only able to communicate by gesturing with his chin.
Qiao Wanwan didn't need to imagine to know how sad that scene would be.
However, she soon saw what had happened online and couldn't help but shed tears.
This meeting between the grandfather and grandson shocked netizens, causing the incident to escalate further and sparking public outrage.
Sun Chen's husband is already in dire straits. Netizens have spontaneously organized to put up banners and condemn him downstairs. He gets pelted with eggs whenever he goes downstairs, so he can only hide at home.
Unable to leave his home, he could only order takeout for meals. However, as soon as the delivery driver brought the food downstairs, he knew it was for his home and would rather pay a fine than deliver it upstairs, eating the takeout himself instead.
The man was starving and had no choice but to rush downstairs like a rat crossing the street. He barely managed to avoid the egg attack and reached the convenience store. He took all the instant noodles to the cashier to pay, but the owner refused, saying, "I don't do business with you, get out!"
"Are you out of your mind? Why wouldn't you do business with us?"
"I'd rather starve to death than do business with a beast like you! Get out of here! Don't dirty my shop!"
The man was furious but helpless, and could only slink away.
A passerby filmed the incident and posted it online, which garnered widespread praise.
The man was so hungry that his stomach was practically sticking to his back. He had to find ways to survive. When he went out, he would use an umbrella to shield himself from the eggs. When he went shopping, he would wear sunglasses and a mask and buy more at once.
But soon, things became unbearable because his parents came knocking on his door.
“You brat! If you don’t have money, find a way to earn it. How could you sell your wife? Now look what’s happened, we’re all suffering because of you!” the mother cried, accusingly. “Those netizens have come to my place, throwing dirty things on my door and rotten eggs at me. I can’t even go out! Those netizens said that as long as you’re alive, they won’t let our family have a peaceful life.”
The man said impatiently, "What's the use of coming to me about this? Just call the police!"
"The police came, but they just glanced at them and chased them away. They came back in no time! Son, your dad and I are really in deep trouble this time... I don't care, you have to find a way to resolve this, otherwise we old folks won't have any peace..."
The man took a deep drag on his cigarette. "What can I do? You've seen my situation here. Is it any better than yours?"
“Go apologize to Sun Chen and have her issue a statement saying that she wasn’t sold by you, but that she accidentally got lost and was kidnapped. Don’t these kinds of things happen all the time over there, where single women are kidnapped?” the mother suggested. “Once this statement is issued, netizens will stop targeting us.”
"Do you think Sun Chen is some saintly saint? That she would forgive me and issue a statement for me at a time like this?" the man cursed. "If you don't know anything, don't give me any bad advice. Go home!"
"How dare you talk to your mother like that!" the mother said, feeling extremely aggrieved. "I'm trying to find a way to save our family, and you dare to yell at me like that? I really regret giving birth to a son like you!"
"Then why don't you just put me back in? Who told you to give birth to me!"
"Alright, stop arguing." The father, who had been watching from the window, came over and said, "All you do all day is argue, you two are ruining our family's luck!"
"It's all your fault!" the mother cried, accusingly. "If you had disciplined your son earlier, would this have happened?"
"You damned woman, you dare blame me? I'll beat you to death!"
After he finished speaking, he rushed forward and began to beat his wife. Her screams and cries instantly echoed throughout the house.
The man finished his cigarette in frustration, threw the butt heavily on the ground, got up and went back into his room, slamming the door shut with a loud bang!
This went on for half a month until the man finally couldn't take it anymore and went downstairs on his own.
When the netizens downstairs saw him come down, they immediately threw rotten eggs at him.
"You beast, die!"
"You scum, how dare you still live!"
The man closed his eyes and let them smash the things before opening them again, crying as he said, "I haven't spoken for so long because my wife has already suffered too much. I didn't want to cause her any more harm, because it's too late to undo what's done."
"But netizens have such a big misunderstanding about me, which has affected my normal life. I have to stand up and clarify for myself. I did not sell my wife. Even though she hurt me, I still love her as always. The reason she got into trouble was that we accidentally got separated and she was kidnapped."
"Pah!" the people present immediately retorted, "Keep making things up! There are witnesses and physical evidence to prove it. What do you have to say for yourself?"
"Even now you still won't admit your mistakes and dare to make up lies. You scum deserve to go to the eighteenth level of hell!"
“I’m telling the truth!” the man cried. “The so-called video is fake, it’s fabricated. Wouldn’t it be easy for the Dijing Group to create such a fake video? And those so-called witnesses, they can be made to testify as long as you pay them. The Dijing Group has plenty of money!”
"You still dare to smear the Imperial View Group? If the Imperial View Group wanted to deal with you, would they need to go to such lengths to fabricate evidence? It would be easier for them to kill you than crush an ant!"
"That's right, nobody will believe a gambler like you. Die!"
"I'm telling the truth!" the man cried. "I admit I've been to casinos, but I've changed my ways. I love my wife so much, how could I bear to sell her! And what you don't know is, my wife actually... she actually cheated on me with someone else, but I didn't hold it against her. I think there aren't many men in this world as magnanimous as me. I swear to God, I have absolutely never done anything to hurt her!"
