Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

But Wen Miao didn’t expect the impact of this incident to be so significant, and the spread of the news to be so widespread. It was as if there were invisible hands deliberately spreading the information.

In less than half a day, people around both their houses actually knew what had happened last night.

Zhang Yue didn’t leave the house all day.

Cao Hui only went out to buy groceries, wanting to make a good meal for her daughter to nourish her body. However, in just a short ten minutes’ walk, she encountered the whispers and pointed fingers of the neighbors.

“Oh, 1 heard their family quarreling so loudly last night. Today, the police were still hanging around nearby. I didn’t expect that the good girl Yueyue would be treated like this. How will she ever get married in the future?”

“Yes, I even saw that it was the two kids from the Wen family who personally took Zhang Yue to the police station! My nephew, who works at the police station, told me. They investigated the case all night, and they haven’t caught the suspect yet!”

“This poor child, her life is ruined. 1 used to think that Zhang Yue was a good girl and considered having her as my daughter-in-law. Now, I dare not accept this girl. Who knows if the children born in the future are mine or the illegitimate children of some other man!”

“She hasn’t come out all day. Is she not planning to go to school anymore?”

“After such an incident, why go to school? Isn’t that embarrassing? 1 think it’s better to find a job and earn money early. In the future, if she can find a man who doesn’t mind, that would be the biggest blessing for their family!”

“Oh, stop talking. Her mother is here.”

The two speakers turned their attention to the woman walking with a hunched back in the alley.

Cao Hui only wore a washed-out coat and didn’t dare to lift her head while walking.

The occasional words of gossip that floated into her ears felt like needles, piercing her heart.

No mother in the world would not feel distressed for her own daughter.

Especially when such an incident happened to her daughter.

But Cao Hui had always been weak. Hearing the neighbors say such things, she could only harbor resentment in her heart and dare not argue with anyone.

She walked like a mouse crossing the street, afraid to make eye contact with anyone. She quietly bought groceries and returned home.

Little did she know that when she reached the stairwell, she bumped into a man wearing a black suit.

The man wore glasses, looking gentle and smiling. He blocked her way up the stairs.

“Who are you?” After last night’s incident, Cao Hui was very cautious towards strange men.

The man smiled slightly, pushed his glasses, and said, “Mrs. Cao, don’t be nervous. I’m here to help you.”

“Help me? Do you know me?” Cao Hui couldn’t think of where she had seen him before.

Seeing the expensive suit he was wearing, she knew that their family had nothing he would covet. She couldn’t recall knowing such a wealthy person.

“We didn’t know each other before this morning.”

The man turned his head to look in the direction of Cao Hui’s house, saying, “You don’t need to be so guarded against me. I’m really here to help you. Won’t you invite me in for a sit?”

Cao Hui, full of suspicion, nodded reluctantly, “Then come with me.”

The man stepped aside.

When Cao Hui passed by him, she caught a whiff of a pleasant fragrance from him, which was like a kind of incense she had never smelled before.

“Mrs. Cao.” The man gently spoke, reminding her not to be distracted.

Only then did Cao Hui hurriedly withdraw her gaze, took out the keys, and opened the front door.

Their house was decorated in an old style, but it was neat inside, not messy.

She invited the man to sit on the sofa in the living room, then went to the kitchen to pour a cup of hot water for him. She sat down nervously and asked, “Mister, when you say you want to help me, are you referring to…”

The man’s gaze fell on the closed bedroom door behind her, “Is your daughter okay now?”

In that instant, Cao Hui’s body tensed, “Why do you ask this? Are you here for my daughter?”

The man smiled with an amiable expression, nodded, “I heard about your daughter’s situation and also know about your previous experiences. That’s why I came over to help you.”

“What do you mean?” Cao Hui didn’t understand why this man suddenly wanted to get involved in their family’s private matters.

Does he have any clues about that beast from last night?

Thinking like this, Cao Hui’s eyes flickered with a glimmer of hope, “Could it be that you can help us catch that scoundrel and hand him over to the police?”

The man shook his head apologetically, “Although it sounds cruel to say this now, I’m sorry, I can’t help you find the man who assaulted your daughter. But 1 have a way to prevent your daughter from being ridiculed by others.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the bedroom door suddenly opened, and Zhang Yue, with a pair of red eyes, looked at them steadily..
