Chapter 40: Thirty-nine, Kowtow
Chapter 40: Thirty-nine, Kowtow
Wang Liying came to her senses and, looking anxiously at Chen Zhihe, asked urgently, “Comrade Public Security, tell me, whom has my daughter slandered? Can’t I go and apologize to her and ask for her forgiveness?”
“Me,” Luo Shu stepped forward, smiling faintly as she pointed to herself.
“Luo Shu, you black-hearted one, it really was you stirring up trouble. No matter what, Erya is your sister, how could you do this to her? Has your conscience been eaten by dogs?” Wang Liying pointed at Luo Shu angrily, wishing she could go up and bite Luo Shu a few times.
If it weren’t for Luo Shu, Daya wouldn’t have married an idiot, their family wouldn’t be burdened with a huge debt, and Erya wouldn’t have been beaten by the Liu family, laughed at by the villagers, and taken to the Public Security Office. All of this was the doing of Luo Shu, that scourge.
Luo Shu scoffed with disdain, “I have only one sister and one brother. Where’s this sister from?”
“You… you…” Wang Liying pointed at Luo Shu, so furious she nearly passed out.
Luo Erya’s fists were clenched tightly, her eyes filled with anger and humiliation. She took a deep breath, slowly unclenched her fists, and crawled to Luo Shu’s feet, looking up at her pleadingly, “Luo Shu… I was wrong… Please forgive me this time… I will never trouble you again… I beg you… Please let me go…” Now Luo Shu was her only savior, once this matter was over, Luo Erya was determined to make Luo Shu suffer even more! To be pointed at by thousands, cursed by everyone.
“Have you forgotten what I said before?” mocked Luo Shu. Even though Luo Erya tried hard to conceal it, Luo Shu could still see the hatred in the depths of her eyes.
“Luo Shu… I know you can do it… as long as you are willing to let me go… I’ll do anything you ask… Is it okay if I kowtow to you…” Luo Erya said, and began to kowtow with a “thud thud!”
Luo Shu merely watched indifferently and had no intention of stopping Luo Erya. Since Luo Erya liked to kowtow, let her do it to her heart’s content.
The scene was silent, save for the continuous “thud thud!” of Luo Erya’s kowtowing.
Looking at Luo Erya’s miserable state, the villagers couldn’t help but feel some pity for her, but recalling her previous actions, the slight sympathy in their hearts immediately vanished.
When Wang Liying saw the blood on Luo Erya’s forehead, she couldn’t bear it anymore, rushed forward, and hugged Luo Erya, who was still about to kowtow, “Erya, stop kowtowing, even if you kowtow to death here, this hard-hearted person will not soften.”
And Luo Erya knew it all too well. She was only gambling, betting that the people around would speak up for her. As long as someone spoke up, all the fingers would point at Luo Shu, and under the pressure of the crowd, even if Luo Shu didn’t want to let her go, she would have to. What Luo Erya didn’t expect was that from beginning to end, the public remained indifferent.
Looking at the fresh blood continuously seeping from Luo Erya’s forehead, Wang Liying’s heart ached as if it were being stabbed. She glared fiercely at Luo Shu, her red eyes filled with intense hatred, “Luo Shu, if you have any grievances, take them out on me! Why are you so cruel, harming Daya is not enough, you still won’t let Erya go? You malicious creature! May you die a horrible death!”
Luo Shu chuckled coldly and turned to Chen Zhihe, nodding slightly.
“Take her away!” Chen Zhihe waved to his subordinates.
The two subordinates promptly moved toward Wang Liying and her daughter, pulling Wang Liying, who was holding onto Luo Erya tightly.
“Don’t take my daughter! Don’t take my daughter!” Wang Liying cried out as she clutched at Luo Erya’s sleeve, refusing to let the Public Security officers take her away.
“Please… don’t arrest me… don’t arrest me…” Luo Erya struggled desperately, but after a short while, her eyes rolled back, and she fainted. It was unclear whether she passed out from fear or due to losing too much blood.
“Captain, what should we do?” one of the Public Security officers asked upon seeing Luo Erya faint.
“No big deal, just need to prick her philtrum with a sewing needle, and she’ll wake up for sure,” Luo Shu said indifferently. There’s a big difference between truly fainting and faking it.
“I have a sewing needle, I’ll do it,” Huang Dujuan stepped forward, pulling out a sewing needle from her pocket. She wasn’t done teaching this little bitch a lesson yet, and now that the opportunity had come, how could she let it go?
Wang Liying felt Luo Erya twitch in her arms and knew she hadn’t really fainted. She quickly stood up, blocking Huang Dujuan, who was about to step forward, “Huang Dujuan, if you dare to prick my girl today, I’ll fight you with my life.”
“Pah! Wang Liying, you shameless woman, throwing yourself at Luo Jiansen. Don’t think for a moment that we don’t know how you got together with Luo Jiansen. If you don’t move aside, I’ll prick you as well,” Huang Dujuan brandished the sewing needle in her hand, threatening her.
Wang Liying took a step forward, puffed out her chest, and pointed to it, “Go ahead, prick me! If you dare, prick me right here!” She had thrown caution to the wind today, not believing for a second that Huang Dujuan would actually dare to prick her.
“Damn it! Do you think I wouldn’t dare?” Huang Dujuan glared at Wang Liying, who was behaving unreasonably. Her hand, holding the sewing needle, came halfway but then she found herself unable to complete the action.
As she hesitated, her leg was suddenly pricked by something. Her legs gave way, and she fell toward Wang Liying.
Caught off guard, Wang Liying was bumped by Huang Dujuan and stumbled backwards, unable to steady herself, and fell to the ground.
“Ah!” Two screams sounded at the same time.
By the time everyone came to their senses, they saw Huang Dujuan, Wang Liying, and Luo Erya piled up like stacked Arhats. At this point, the bottom-most Luo Erya had turned pale and appeared to have genuinely passed out this time.
As Huang Dujuan came to her senses, she quickly scrambled off Wang Liying and looked at her right hand, only to find the sewing needle that had just been in her grasp was now gone.
Could it be? She hurriedly looked at Wang Liying, who was still lying on the ground, her face contorted with pain. Upon a closer examination, she found a small needle tip at Wang Liying’s left chest, but most of the needle had sunk into Wang Liying’s body.
This was bad! What if something happened to Wang Liying? Huang Dujuan’s face turned pale with fear, and she quickly retreated a few steps, hiding behind the Liu family members.
Luo Shu smiled and said something to Chen Zhihe beside her before heading towards where vehicles were parked.
She had lost interest in watching. After this farce, even without taking Luo Erya to the Public Security Office, her coming days would be tough.

As for Wang Liying, the company must have already received the denunciation letter she wrote. In the memories of the original owner, Wang Liying had stolen from the company more than once, although it wasn’t much. But in this era, such matters were no small issue. Once the matter was investigated and confirmed, how could Wang Liying have a good outcome? Soon she and her daughter would become rats crossing the street, shunned by everyone.
