The principal of No. 2 High School was also very angry when he learned about this incident.

Everyone could see what kind of person Si Nian was.

How could she be as hateful as the newspaper wrote?

The principal immediately contacted the newspaper to ask about the situation. Although there were some newspapers these days that would write bad things to attract attention, Si Nian was the provincial top scorer in science, a newly famous figure.

They shouldn’t have dared to write so exaggeratedly.

He even suspected that someone was playing tricks behind the scenes.

Could it be that No. 1 High School was still holding a grudge against Si Nian for coming to their school, and them showing it off?

Otherwise, apart from No. 1 High School having the ability to find a newspaper to smear Si Nian, ordinary people shouldn’t dare to do so.

Originally, the principal was worried that something might happen, so he hurriedly called Si Nian to ask about her situation.

Who knew he would hear that she went to the police station to sue the Sunshine Newspaper.

The principal immediately rushed over with the director.

No matter the reason, he would protect his student.

Zhou Yueshen heard about this from Yu Dong in the afternoon and hurried home.

When he got home, he heard that Si Nian had already gone to the police station to report the case.

Although he knew Si Nian was very independent and strong—otherwise she wouldn’t have chosen to report it immediately upon seeing the newspaper—the more she didn’t need to rely on him, the more useless he felt.

The children were all at home, very worried.

Although they didn’t read newspapers, they had also heard about this.

It was such a joyous event just a few days ago, how could it be spread so terribly by others?

But Si Nian didn’t take them with her, so they could only stay at home.

Seeing Zhou Yueshen return, the Second Child threw himself over, hugged his thigh, and cried, “Dad, someone is bad, they scolded Mom.”

“Mom is not that kind of person at all.”

Zhou Yueshen had already heard about this. Frowning tightly, he patted his shoulder: “Dad knows. You and your brother stay home and look after your sister. I’ll go pick up your mom.”

The Second Child wiped his tears, feeling very angry and wronged.

Why would such a good person like Mom be bullied? It was really too much.

He must become a police officer in the future and catch all these bad guys.

After speaking, Zhou Yueshen took the car keys and went out again.

“Big brother, I really want to go with Dad.”

Zhou Zedong looked at his father’s departing back and withdrew his gaze, “Alright, with Dad there, Mom will definitely be fine.”

After speaking, he walked into the kitchen.

The Second Child followed eagerly: “Big brother, what are you doing?”

Zhou Zedong didn’t look at him, continuing to wash the rice and busy himself: “Cooking. Once the food is ready, Mom and Dad can eat when they come back.”

The Second Child’s eyes lit up: “Yeah, then I’ll help you.”

“No need, go buy some groceries for me, we don’t have enough vegetables at home.”

After speaking, he took out fifty cents and handed it to him.

The Second Child’s eyes lit up. Fifty cents, wouldn’t the rest be…

His beautiful thoughts were shattered by Zhou Zedong before they could finish, “Remember to return the change to me.”

The Second Child: …..

“Big brother is so stingy.”

Zhou Zehan complained while carrying the vegetable basket to buy groceries.

Just as he finished buying and returned, he saw a strange man standing by the road, wearing a black suit, a hat, and glasses.

He couldn’t help but take a glance. It was such a hot day, why was someone still wearing a coat?

With just that glance, the other party looked over at him.

The other party paused for a second, then asked, “Little friend, excuse me, is Old East Street here?”

Zhou Zehan came back to his senses and pointed at the sign behind him, “Uncle, you’re so silly, isn’t it written on the sign behind you?”

The man chuckled softly, “Oh yes, my eyesight is bad, I didn’t see it. Do you live in here too?”

The Second Child frowned. He looked the man up and down. The man was wearing a suit and a watch, looking very wealthy. Compared to the foul-mouthed human traffickers from last time, it was a world of difference.

And the man in front of him was very cultured and gentle.

That suit was the same as the one his dad bought before, the one his mom bought for him. The Second Child had secretly opened it to look; one piece cost seventy or eighty yuan, much more expensive than his clothes.

Could it be that the threshold for human traffickers was so high now?

He blinked and didn’t answer the man’s question, but instead asked back, “Uncle, why are you asking this?”

The man smiled and nodded, “I just want to ask you if the Fang family is inside.”

“I’m here to find my family.”

The Second Child was slightly stunned: “The Fang family?”

He said in surprise: “Could it be that you are Fang Bowen’s dad?”

The man paused and said, “Yes, you know my Bowen?”

The Second Child immediately turned his little face serious: “Uncle, if you are Fang Bowen’s dad, then you should quickly go see him. He’s going to die of illness, coughing every day.”

“Aunt Fang is so bad, she’s not good to him at all. She locks him up at home alone and doesn’t let him play with us.”

Last time he and Jiang Jiu brought food to Fang Bowen, they saw that Fang Bowen had lost weight.

He looked just as weak as when he fainted before.

Although he didn’t interact much with Fang Bowen, he always felt that Fang Bowen was so pitiful.

The man’s brow furrowed, “Is that so? Please trouble yourself to lead the way for me, little friend.”

……

At the police station.

The editor-in-chief who wrote this article for the newspaper and the reporter were both brought to the police station to await questioning.

Fang Hui sat to the side, completely dazed.

She didn’t understand how she ended up in the station.

Captain Li placed the newspaper in front of the group and asked in a deep voice, “Who wrote this article?”

Everyone looked at each other. Although they already had guesses, they were still shocked at this moment.

They all looked towards the editor-in-chief.

The editor-in-chief’s eyes immediately tightened, and he hurriedly said, “Although I wrote and published it, the person who did the interview was Fang Hui. I wrote it based on the content of her interview.”

After speaking, his eyes turned cold. He originally thought he had gotten a highly sensational report that could give their newspaper a huge boost in sales.

Who would have thought that something would go wrong in just two days.

He was both angry and afraid. “Fang Hui, didn’t you say that the content of these interviews was true? Why would the police say we are framing and spreading rumors?”

He was also surprised when he saw Fang Hui’s interview content at the time, but Fang Hui was certain it was correct, saying it was said by Si Nian’s relatives, and many people knew about these things, so he wrote it out.

Who would have thought they would be sued at the police station.

Fang Hui’s face was alternately pale and green.

At this time, Si Nian came over.

She saw Fang Hui, whose face didn’t look very good, at a glance.

It really made Si Nian pause for a moment, because she truly didn’t expect it to be her.

Seeing her now, she remembered that someone seemed to have mentioned before that Fang Hui worked at a newspaper.

But although there was some friction between the two of them, neither usually caused trouble for the other, and they had always lived in peace.

How much hatred and resentment did Fang Hui have to write about her like this?

No matter what, she definitely couldn’t escape involvement in this matter.
