"What are you talking about? She's at the Beijing Public Security Bureau. I'm telling you, Wang Gou Dan, Wang Danu is a grown woman. You just beat her up like that? Who would want her then? Honestly!" Village Chief Ma was furious.
Wang Gou Dan was stunned for a moment. This brat went to the capital. Not bad, not bad. She does have some skills. Why don't I go to the capital too and see if there's a chance to make a fortune?
"Village Chief, Village Chief, could you write me a letter of introduction? I'll go to the capital and bring her back." Wang Gou Dan caught up with Village Chief Ma.
"Your Wang Danu is at the police station, how are you going to answer her?" the village chief said with disgust.
"Ah, village chief, can you please relent and not sue us? It's just two letters of introduction, we'll pay for it, okay?" Wang Gou Dan tugged at Village Chief Ma's sleeve.
Village Chief Ma sneered, "Wang Gou Dan, do you think I don't know your scheme? You want to go to the capital and make a fortune off Da Niu, right? Don't go. Da Niu will be sent back after she finishes her jail time. Besides, does your family still have any money?"
Wang Gou Dan was stunned into disbelief, but Village Chief Ma never fooled anyone. Wang Gou Dan decided to wait for Da Niu to come back, then take her to the house of the hooligan in the next village and settle the bill there as well.
Wang Daniu was waiting for Yan Ge to come and take her back, but the first thing the police officers asked her was whether she had done anything illegal or disorderly, such as prostitution.
Wang Danu quickly shook her head, knowing that she only had one man and couldn't just say things like that.
"So how much money did you receive from Yan Ge?" the police officer asked again.
Wang Daniu thought about the two hundred yuan she had in the bank, and her heart started pounding. Yan Ge had not only given her two hundred yuan, but also bought her clothes, food and drinks.
"According to our investigation, Yan Ge gave you two hundred yuan, and there are staff members of the Regal Hotel to testify that you and Yan Ge booked a room in the hotel. You are a prostitute," the police officer suddenly shouted.
Wang Daniu blinked, unable to believe what she was hearing. Yan Ge had even said something like this, so he still thought of her as one of those women.
I heard a thud in my ear, and my heart shattered. I thought I had hooked a rich guy, but it turns out I was just being used as a plaything.
Now we're in a bind. If we accuse Yan Ge of indecent assault, he'll accuse us of prostitution, which is a much more serious charge than indecent assault.
Wang Danu gritted her teeth and said resentfully, "Yan Ge and I are in a relationship."
"You were dating someone and you did *that* with them, and you even took their money. No wonder they've made it clear they're cutting ties with you and will have nothing to do with you again. Sign here."
"What do you need to sign?" Wang Danu asked.
“You and Yan Ge were in a relationship. Now that you’ve been accused of being a despicable person, not only stealing money from your family but also stealing state property, your partner is going to break off all ties with you.” The police officer even handed him a pen.
Wang Daniu looked at the strict signatures on the table, and there was still one empty spot. She was just waiting for herself to sign and put her fingerprint on it.
"Was this strictly signed?" Wang Danu asked, still unwilling to give up.
"Yes, he wrote it himself." It can't be said that it was written by someone named Bei Nan.
"After signing this document, do I have to return the money to him?" Wang Danu asked again.
"Since they didn't say they wanted you to pay it back, they probably don't want you to pay it back." It's ridiculous that someone as rich as Bei Nan would ask you to pay back two hundred yuan.
Wang Daniu readily signed the document. Since she didn't have to pay back the money, she might as well sign it. Anyway, she knew she couldn't get into the Yan family's house; that old woman alone wouldn't let her in.
Seeing that Wang Daniu had signed the papers, the police officers breathed a sigh of relief. They had finally resolved this matter and could now move on to the next case.
"You stole the village committee's letter of introduction. Now, Village Chief Ma of Mushroom Village has reported you to the police for theft. Do you admit it or not?"
Wang Danu nodded. She definitely had to acknowledge it; what good would it do to deny it?
"According to our country's criminal law... you should be sentenced to two years in prison. However, based on your good attitude in admitting your guilt, and the fact that Village Chief Ma just called to plead for you, the sentence is two years suspended for two years. Please sign."
Looking at the judgment and pen in front of her, Wang Daniu couldn't quite understand what the police officer was saying—what did "two years suspended sentence" mean?
"It's a two-year sentence, suspended for two years. Go back to your registered residence and do hard labor." The police officer had her sign, and after she signed, someone would come to take her back.
"No, no, I won't go back, I won't go back, it'll be all over if I go back!" Wang Daniu suddenly shouted.
She understood what the police officer was saying. She had finally escaped, so how could she go back? If she went back, her father would sell her to a poor mountain village, and her life would be ruined.
“My dad would sell me off if I went back. I’d rather go to jail than go back. Otherwise, I’ll definitely run away halfway. If I can’t escape, I’ll just die.”
The police were stunned. There are parents like this? No wonder she stole the letter of introduction to escape. She must have had her reasons. Maybe they should call the village chief and ask him.
When Wang Daniu saw that she had been locked up in the detention center, she felt temporarily at ease. She had already made up her mind that it would be better to die than to be sent back.
When Village Chief Ma received the call, he was so angry that his beard bristled. "What kind of time is this? How dare they still buy and sell people?" he exclaimed. He said he would go and ask Wang Gou Dan if he was going to sell Wang Daniu.
Wang Gou Dan never expected that his wishful thinking would be discovered by Village Chief Ma. He awkwardly denied it, saying, "How could I possibly sell my own daughter?"
Village Chief Ma could tell at a glance that what Wang Daniu said was true. No wonder this girl wanted to run away; any woman would want to run away.
“Let me tell you, Wang Gou Dan, if you dare to sell Wang Daniu, you’ll be the next one to go to jail. Human trafficking is illegal.”
"Village chief, this is wrong of you. Didn't you tell me to marry off Da Niu quickly? Now you won't let me sell her, no, you won't let me marry her off. What should I do?" Wang Gou Dan was really worried.
“Wang Daniu would rather go to jail than come back, what do you think we should do?” Village Chief Ma felt a little guilty. He had actually said those words before, but he swore he meant to marry her.
"Then don't let her come back. I hate her." Wang Gou Dan decided that even if she came back, he wouldn't let her into the house.
Village Chief Ma understood, turned around and left, pondering when to drive Wang Gou Dan out of the village as well. He was such a troublemaker; his family was always involved in whatever happened in the village.
After receiving the call, the police officers promptly sent Wang Daniu back to the county public security bureau in her hometown. Whether she went to jail or received a suspended sentence, they couldn't control her here. If someone were to die, the trouble would be much greater.
When Wang Daniu learned that she was only being sent back to the county, she felt much more relaxed. As long as she wasn't going back to the Wang family, she was willing to do anything.
After receiving the signed document, Bei Nan smiled smugly, tossed the document to Yan Ge, and left with a cold laugh.
