Wen Qihang and Qu Wenjing opened the door together. "Mom and Dad, come in quickly!" Qu Wenjing said with a smile.
Seeing the smiles on their faces, Qu's mother breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed her daughter had come to her senses.
"Okay!"
Qu's mother happily entered the house, while Qu's father glanced at Wen Qihang before strolling in with his hands behind his back. At this time, his neck was red, flushed from embarrassment at the neighbor's actions, and the redness had not yet subsided.
It's all that brat's fault. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have copied him like that, causing that blind old Wang next door to misunderstand him. My reputation in this life has been ruined by that brat.
Mr. Qu had already come up with no fewer than ten ways to make things difficult for the boy, but when he heard about a scar removal cream that could completely remove all the scars on his daughter's face, he immediately forgot all his plans.
"Can it really remove scars?" he asked excitedly.
Wen Qihang nodded, "This medicine was taken out by my younger sister. If she says it's okay, then it's definitely okay."
Hearing this, Mr. and Mrs. Qu's excitement subsided somewhat, and they held back their attitude, as they were unaware of Wen Moxue's abilities.
"That's good, that's good!" Mrs. Qu said with a smile.
In any case, they all hope for some effect; even if they don't completely remove the scars, fading them would be good.
After thinking for a moment, Mr. Qu said, "I'll take Wenjing to the hospital later to get a diagnosis report from the doctor, and then go to the police station to have the police take a look so they can close the case as soon as possible. Otherwise, if Wenjing's face heals in a few days and they think the consequences aren't serious, they might give that old woman a lenient sentence."
Qu's mother clapped her hands and said, "Yes, let's do it this way. Let's go to the hospital now."
Without further ado, the group went to the hospital and found the doctor who had previously treated Qu Wenjing. The doctor's surname was Huang, and looking at Qu Wenjing's face, he felt a pang of sorrow and regret.
Seeing that the person involved, their parents, and their partner were all acting as if nothing had happened, she couldn't help but feel a bit of admiration. She looked at Wen Qihang again and again, and finally couldn't help but praise him.
"Young man, you are a man of great loyalty and affection."
He doesn't care at all that his partner is disfigured; such character is truly rare. If his friend's daughter's partner could be like that, then his friend's daughter wouldn't be so depressed all the time.
Dr. Huang sympathized with Qu Wenjing's plight and wrote a very detailed diagnosis report, even clearly outlining the potential psychological trauma after the disfigurement, and kindly reminded them of these things.
“When you take the report to the police station, you can’t be so indifferent. You have to act sad and distressed.”
What a good person! What a wonderful person!
Mr. Qu held the other person's hand and thanked him again and again.
After leaving the hospital, Qu's parents accompanied Qu Wenjing to the police station to cry and complain. This time, Wen Qihang did not come with them. They went to the police station to play the victim, including saying that her marriage was called off after being disfigured, which was a huge blow, and that the old woman must be severely punished.
The Qu family's tearful plea for sympathy at the police station was effective; the case was closed the next day. The old woman was sentenced to two years in prison, and her family had to pay Qu Wenjing a total of 50 yuan in compensation for medical expenses, nutritional expenses, and mental distress.
This money wasn't much for the Qu family, but what they wanted wasn't the money itself, but rather punishment for the old woman. They wanted to show her that just because she was old, she could act recklessly and do whatever she wanted. If someone commits a crime because they are old, they still have to bear the corresponding responsibility.
The old woman's family made a scene for so many days, but not only did they fail to get the person out, they also lost 50 yuan. They were furious and ended up hating Aunt Qu.
They felt they were implicated because of them. If Aunt Qu's family hadn't done something so offensive, there wouldn't have been no room for reconciliation.
Even though Aunt Qu's family was also locked inside, they couldn't escape the curses of the old woman's family.
"It's good that they're in. They're a useless family. It'll be good for my mother to have some company."
Aunt Qu was unaware that she had done something thankless. She was also cursing, cursing Qu's parents and Qu Wenjing for being wicked, cursing the Wen family for being heartless, and cursing the Wen family's son-in-law for being a scoundrel.
They also accused the police of being unable to distinguish right from wrong and of engaging in favoritism and corruption.
Qu Wenhao, Qu Wenfang, and their younger brother were terrified, afraid they wouldn't be able to get out. The three siblings could only cry.
Uncle Qu remained silent until he heard from the police that his whole family might be sentenced, at which point he asked to see Uncle Qu one last time.
"I'm sorry, brother!"
The first thing Uncle Qu said upon meeting was an apology.
Back then, he was forced to marry this useless country woman because of Aunt Qu's persistent advances, and he was extremely resentful.
He was very envious and jealous of his older brother. Why was he so lucky to marry a city girl who had a job and was good-looking?
So his wife often sponged off his older brother, causing all sorts of trouble at his brother's house, and he always tolerated and condoned it. He wondered if he had restrained his wife earlier, would this situation have been avoided?
But it's too late to say anything now.
"Brother, this is my last plea. Could you please ask the Wen family to let Wenhao and his two siblings go? They were all implicated because of us."
Qu's father said, "I have no face to plead with the Wen family, but I asked the police officers, and they said that as long as you are not the mastermind, you won't be sentenced for long. After you get out, just live a good life."
Uncle Qu's eyes flickered. "Understood, Big Brother!"
After several days of investigation, the police learned that the situation was roughly the same as what Lu Yuan had said. However, the four members of the Qu family, including Uncle Qu and his sons, all shifted the blame for Wen Qihang's hooliganism and attempt to seize the house onto Aunt Qu.
Finally, Aunt Qu was sent to a farm for reform through labor for crimes such as plotting her daughter to harass a man, attempting to seize other people's property, instigating her husband, son, and daughter to beat people, and slandering public officials.
Qu Wenfang was sentenced to five years for hooliganism. Although she was forced into it by her mother, it is also true that she later tried to take advantage of the man. Her thinking was very improper.
The sentences for the father and his two sons were a bit lenient. All three showed remorse and were willing to admit their mistakes. The youngest son, Qu, was sentenced to six months because of his young age, while the second uncle and Qu Wenhao received six months more.
The betrayal of Aunt Qu's family was a great relief, especially for Qu Wenfang and her daughter. The Wen family was also happy. After this incident, many people learned that women who acted indecently towards men could be arrested and sentenced.
With the matter of Aunt Qu's family settled, Lu Yuan and his wife prepared to move with his father-in-law and mother-in-law.
“Tomorrow is an auspicious day, let’s move tomorrow,” Wen Shengtao decided.
Apart from Wen Qihang, no one else had any objections.
With only a few days left until the wedding, if everyone moves out, won't he be left all alone in the cold and lonely house?
"You could ask your future sister-in-law to come and keep you company," Lu Yuan kindly suggested.
Wen Qihang's face instantly turned bright red. "What are you saying?"
Seeing his reaction, Lu Yuan knew he had misunderstood and burst into laughter.
"I...I...I...What did I say? I just told you to ask your future sister-in-law to come over and keep you company if you're bored. I didn't say you should spend the night with her."
"Tsk, big brother, are you always thinking about your wedding night? Hahahaha!"
