On the way, Mo Yan directly checked the surveillance footage across from the Wang family's house. The footage showed that Jiao Ziang was protecting Wang Siling the whole time, but Wang Siling was hiding behind Jiao Ziang and crying.
It's getting more and more annoying to look at.
“My son was just helping to take your daughter home, but he was beaten up by you and is now in the hospital.”
It's one thing for you parents to be inconsiderate of your daughter, but to hit her without asking any questions is illegal.
And your daughter, knowing full well what was going on, just let my son get beaten because she was afraid of being scolded. You two really aren't family; birds of a feather flock together.
With parents like these, you'll have a daughter like this.
Hearing Mo Yan's words, Wang Siling and her mother still felt wronged.
The police explained to them the consequences of filing a case.
"Well, I didn't know your son wasn't a conman, so you can't blame me."
"Auntie, I know I was wrong, but I was really scared."
I've been all alone out there for so long, I'm already miserable enough.
It's understandable that I was scared for a moment, isn't it?
Wang Siling cried so pitifully, we have to forgive her.
"I can't understand why I should understand you when my son has been beaten."
Besides, your misfortune is due to your own stupidity, what does it have to do with my son?
His only mistake was being kind-hearted, which is why he took you home.
Even when you were being beaten, you still protected me. I do not accept reconciliation.
You either apologize and pay compensation, or you can wait for the court hearing.
Mo Yan didn't want to say anything more to them.
It is because of people like this that people feel disheartened.
If doing good deeds results in being struck by lightning, who would still be willing to do good deeds?
I helped you, and you turned around and blamed me.
That's absolutely disgusting.
"I... Auntie, are you really going to force me like this? If I really do this, what will everyone think of me?"
Wang Siling stared wide-eyed at Jiao Ziang's mother in disbelief. This aunt had seemed so gentle at first, so why was she so heartless now?
"I'm just telling you about your choices. Wang Siling has to take responsibility for her mistakes. You're not a child anymore. Crying won't solve all the problems."
You shouldn't use everyone's sympathy as an excuse to run away.
Mo Yan had nothing more to say; she would leave everything to the lawyer.
Wang Siling cried uncontrollably, while her mother felt sorry for the money.
However, since the police have opened a case, if they don't pay compensation and apologize, the outcome they face will be even more unacceptable.
When Mo Yan returned to the hospital, Jiao Ziang was reading a book.
"Get some rest. You can read whatever you want. Isn't it your closing ceremony tomorrow? I'll have Wang Siling apologize to you."
The lawyer called, and the other party was willing to apologize.
"Mom, why is this happening? Should we think twice before doing good deeds in the future?"
Jiao Ziang suddenly began to doubt himself, as he had always been taught to help others.
But... Wang Siling's behavior puzzled him.
"Would you still help someone who needs help next time?"
"Yes." Jiao Ziang answered decisively, without any hesitation. "Even if I have some doubts, I still cannot stand idly by."
"Just remember what you said. There are many people like Wang Siling, but you'll only meet her once. Will you still believe her the second time?"
She only depleted her own trust points.
People might be deceived by her gentle appearance, but that's only once. With time, they'll know what kind of person she really is.
She's depleting her own trust.
The level of trust others have in her.
"Mom, I understand."
...
Early in the morning, Mo Yan went to buy food.
Jiao Ziang was packing his things to go to the hospital when he looked up and saw Wang Siling.
Her eyes were very red; it was obvious she had been crying.
"I'm sorry." Wang Siling truly felt sorry for Jiao Ziang.
You should apologize at the school.
It's useless here.
"I can't. What will people think of me if I apologize at school?"
"If you don't apologize, I'll become a scumbag who lies to girls in everyone's eyes."
Wang Siling, you only think about yourself, but what about me?
I was just trying to help someone, so how did I end up being called a jerk?
Jiao Ziang couldn't understand how Wang Siling had the nerve to come here.
"Why can't you help me one more time? You're a boy, and people will forget about it after a while, but I'm different. My reputation is very important to me."
Wang Siling clutched her clothes tightly; she couldn't become a bad child.
"That's your business. If you know that, why did you run away from home? Why can't you bravely admit it?"
Now, they're saying she's pitiful.
"I admit it, I can't stay here any longer."
“It has nothing to do with me. I knew that if you didn’t apologize, I would file a lawsuit. My reputation is also important.”
The image of his mother going to great lengths to beat someone for his sake was right before his eyes.
Mom was right, he was not wrong.
Wang Siling: "..."
At school, Wang Siling eventually had to apologize, and the Wang family also had to pay compensation.
Wang's mother admitted that she had misunderstood Jiao Ziang, and of course, she spent the last part of the time scolding Fang Siqi.
The school leaders couldn't stand it anymore and dragged her away.
