"Brother Li, something terrible has happened!"
With the college entrance examination approaching, the floors where the senior students of Linjiang No.1 High School are located are unusually quiet. No one is in the mood to play or joke around. Everyone is hurrying along, making their final sprint.
The atmosphere in the Rocket Class became more tense than ever before, with everyone on edge and giving it their all.
This arrangement was suddenly interrupted by a series of hurried footsteps.
Xie Li was taking some fresh air in the corridor when she saw Li Chen rushing over. She paused, then asked, "What's wrong?"
Li Chen was somewhat surprised to see Luo Zhihan there as well. He awkwardly scratched his head, unsure whether he should greet her.
He had been tutored by Luo Zhihan for a while and had developed a psychological fear of Luo Zhihan. When the other party glanced at him indifferently, he subconsciously wondered if he had done something wrong.
"Um, Young Master Han."
Turning to Xie Li, she said, "You should check the news! Uncle Shen and Aunt Wang are on the news, crying to the media that you abandoned your adoptive parents!"
In the video, Wang Cuihua kept wiping away tears. She still looked the same, with the vicissitudes in her eyes and the wrinkles on her face showing the bitterness of life.
His hunched figure and timid, weak expression evoked sympathy in people.
She just cried in front of the camera, while Shen Erzhu, standing next to her, tearfully told the media: "Because I had just come to the city and didn't know the rules, I sold fake medicine made from my family's ancestral recipe, and I was arrested and imprisoned. Her mother is illiterate and couldn't make a living, so she took on five jobs, sleeping no more than five hours a day, working hard to earn money and save it up. She finally managed to save enough money to come to Linjiang City to find her daughter, but her daughter took her to the train station without saying a word and forced her to go back!"
After several years, Shen Erzhu's body, weakened by wine and women, looked even older.
"I'm riddled with ailments, and her mother is even more exhausted, suffering from lumbar muscle strain that nearly paralyzed her. I just want to ask, how can this be allowed to happen! Over a decade of nurturing kindness, just thrown away like that!"
The reporter looked at Wang Cuihua beside him and couldn't bear it either.
This rural woman was not only short and thin, but her back was also hunched, clearly an injury caused by long-term heavy work.
He's only thirty-nine years old, but he looks like he's in his fifties or sixties!
"I heard you say that your adopted daughter is only eighteen years old. Could it be that she couldn't help it either..."
"Do you know who my adopted daughter is? She's the eldest daughter of the wealthy and prestigious Xie family, a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners! You all know the Xie family, right? Their hair growth tonic launched last year at Huichuntang generated over 10 billion yuan in net profit in just a few months. Would they be short of money? I heard my adopted daughter has tens of millions of yuan on her hands!"
Now the reporter had nothing to say.
The Xie family, specializing in traditional Chinese medicine, is one of the most prestigious and powerful families in Linjiang City!
Someone else raised his daughter for over ten years, and he didn't even offer a token of appreciation? And Xie Li, a pheasant who flew into a wealthy family, immediately kicked his impoverished and ailing adoptive parents aside—he's utterly heartless!
Many netizens were outraged after seeing this.
Shen Erzhu even knelt down and kowtowed in front of the camera: "Lili, I know you're watching, I beg you! Your mother's body is severely damaged and she needs surgery as soon as possible. You can disown me, but please save her!"
He cried with genuine emotion, his face conveying sadness and grief vividly.
"I know you look down on us. We have indeed disgraced you. We are incapable of providing you with an education or a good life. We deserve to die!"
“But I went down the mountain to Pengcheng because people said I could make money selling medicine. I wanted to save more money for your education, since you've always been smart! But I didn't expect it to be illegal. I got arrested and went to jail. It's not that I don't care about you, Lili!”
