Chapter 608
“I really don’t know which family raised such children, regardless of whether it’s the older or the younger one, none of them look like they’re good. One looks as if she’s bound to be a mistress with her flirtatious demeanor, while the other is a typical white lotus and green tea bitch, who acts weak to win men’s pity. I’m telling you, it won’t work. Even if today you both have silver tongues capable of flipping truth and lies, it won’t work. Justice and morality are in people’s hearts, and my family’s status is right here, not something any Tom, Dick, or Harry can bully.” The woman looked at Yu Xia and sneered coldly.
“On one hand, you talk about justice and morality, and on the other, you talk about your family’s background, so, are you planning to use your power to suppress others?” Yu Xia frowned, looking disapproving.
“And if I am, what can you do about it? Little girl, this world is much more complicated than you think. I think you’d better go back to being in your mother’s womb and start over.” The woman blew on her fingernails and continued to speak, but this time she was addressing everyone in the police station, not just Yu Xia.
“I’m laying it out today, my daughter could never be wrong, it’s always others who are at fault, so today I must take her home. She has never been subjected to grievances like this from childhood to adulthood, she’s been treasured by her father and me, so all of you must take responsibility for your mistakes today. The ones who took my daughter and locked her up must apologize to her,” the woman said while leisurely sipping some water.
“And the uneducated slut who hit my daughter, and the one standing in front of me, you also must apologize to my daughter. Because this whole thing started because of you, you could say if it weren’t for you, this wouldn’t have happened. So you must sincerely kneel on the ground and beg for my daughter’s forgiveness. If my daughter doesn’t forgive you, you will keep kneeling until she does. As for the medical bills and such, our family doesn’t need the money, so you don’t need to compensate us.” The woman waved her hand as if she had made a great sacrifice.
“What a coincidence, our family doesn’t lack that money either. What we want is the truth and justice.” Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao had just arrived and heard the conditions set by the woman. Xu Ke’s already unsmiling face turned even colder and harder, looking particularly intimidating.
“Sister, brother-in-law, why are you here?” Yu Xia’s face looked surprised, then she turned her gaze to the police officers. She didn’t know when they called them to bring them here.
Compared to Yu Xia’s shock, Tang Zhongwei seemed to be completely panicked. Her appearance now was almost no different from a street beggar, perhaps even worse, at least beggars just have tattered clothes. But her clothes were not only tattered, her face was also bruised and battered. Meeting people like this was utterly humiliating, so Tang Zhongwei closed her eyes and pretended to be a corpse.
Before Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao arrived, Tang Zhongwei didn’t know how much she was causing a scene. Now suddenly going quiet brought a noticeable silence to the police station, and the police found it rather unsettling, secretly glancing at Tang Zhongwei several times.
Lin Mengyao’s acting wasn’t great, anyone with eyes could tell she was pretending, but Yu Xia fell right into it instantly, becoming anxious, her eyes reddening like a little animal seeking comfort, she cautiously leaned toward Lin Mengyao and asked, “Are you angry? Please don’t be angry, I’m protecting myself well and I wasn’t hurt. Besides, this whole thing wasn’t our fault, she suddenly came over to provoke us and said some really nasty things. If it weren’t for that, they wouldn’t have started fighting at all, I have a video surveillance clip showing it all, you can see for yourself.”
Yu Xia’s words were like dropping a torpedo in the police station.
The woman, who was initially watching the show, observing Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao and guessing their identities, suddenly couldn’t care less about any of this.
“What surveillance video? Where did you get the surveillance video? It must be fake. Do you know lying and deceiving in a police station can get you thrown in jail?” the woman spoke, a little flustered.
Even though she told others her daughter was well-mannered and created a persona of a well-bred young lady, she knew better than anyone what her daughter was really like.
It was obvious without thinking that her daughter had said something nasty and provoked others, but this place wasn’t like back home, not everyone knew who she was here, so naturally, no one would give her face. So the outcome was straightforward.
The police were also surprised that Yu Xia had such evidence, but Yu Xia seemed like the kind of good student who couldn’t be lying.
“Whether my sister is lying or not, we can tell from the video, no need for you to fuel the panic here. Instead of concerning yourself with my sister, maybe you should think about how to help your daughter clear her name when the time comes,” Xu Ke said, not in a good mood.
“Nonsense, how could my daughter be at fault? If there’s a fault, it’s you commoners who are at fault. I’ll say it again, my daughter can’t be wrong. You can keep holding her, I demand to take her away immediately. As for the video you mentioned, who knows if it’s real or fake, it might be something you conjured up to frame my daughter to escape responsibility. I’ve seen many low-down tricks like yours, and I’m not falling for it,” the woman said, somewhat shamelessly and unreasonably.
“Whether the video is fake or edited, our police station will determine that. We won’t let any citizen suffer unjustly or bear false charges, and we won’t let any lawbreaker go unpunished, you can rest assured.”
Listening to the police, how could the woman possibly be reassured, she became unreasonable and tried to stop them from playing the video Yu Xia provided.
“If you keep this up, be careful we charge you with obstructing justice.” The policeman withdrew his arm from the woman’s grip. In doing so to protect the USB drive Yu Xia handed over, his hand bravely bore the scars once again, now with several scratch marks and even a bite mark from which you could faintly see blood.
