Chapter 24 What's the deal with hugging each other?
The target of the shouting person also turned to me from Lu Yiting, "Hey! The one in the car! Is this your mom in front? "What else are you asking, seeing that she doesn't even dare to say a word, I'm sure what that aunt said is true!" "Oh, it's disgusting, I don't even care about my own mother......"
My mother had apparently mastered how to stir up the emotions of these people who did not know the truth of the matter, and when she saw that more and more people began to scold me, she cried even louder.
The power of public opinion is always very terrifying, and it didn't take long for me to become a vicious woman who "sold her mother for glory and was ruthless" in the mouth of the onlookers, and my "concubine" - Lu Yiting is naturally not a good thing, in just a few minutes, the two of us have become "dog men and women" who should be scolded by everyone.
During the time when my mother was doing her crazy behavior, Lu Yiting's expression became more and more ugly, but he didn't say a word, just stared at me silently.
I know what Lu Yiting thinks in his heart, he thinks that no matter how bad my mother is, it is also my mother, and he doesn't want to embarrass her in front of so many people. And my mother is also an old man after all, and some old people can only bear it if they have to rely on the old and sell the old.
It should be difficult for Lu Yiting to do it in his heart now, I sighed in my heart, let's solve it by me. I shouldn't have shrunk behind Lu Yiting and enjoyed his protection as a matter of course.
Lu Yiting is a gold medal lawyer, his reputation is very important to him, how can I affect him because of my own affairs?
What's more, this was originally my family matter, and Lu Yiting had no position to interfere. Judging by my mother's aggressiveness, I guess she wouldn't give up if I didn't speak.
Amid the curses of passers-by, I, an "unfilial girl", finally got out of the car.
My act of coming out was obviously something my mother didn't expect, and in her mind, I was still a timid and scared poor worm who would only let her fiddle with things, how could I come out and bear it?
But she reacted quickly, and was about to pounce in my direction after a wow cry. My mother got up from the ground excitedly and was about to walk towards me, probably thinking that she was now a victim, and it was not good to get up from the ground so quickly, so she deliberately fell to the ground and screamed without taking a few steps.
My mother's eyes were still staring at me fiercely, as before, without any emotion, but I was no longer afraid.
I watched her series of small actions coldly, but I didn't want to expose her filthy thoughts in public, and I didn't bother to accompany her in this scene again.
"It's almost the same as the acting, what have you done before, don't you know what you've done in your own heart?" I didn't want to continue to entangle with this unreasonable woman here, so I said coldly, asking my mother not to make such endless troubles anymore.
I still underestimated the extent to which my mother was reversing right and wrong, and instead of shutting up as I said, she shouted even louder when she heard me speak.
"Everyone's giving me a critique! Let's see how ruthless this woman is! I'm lying here like this, and she's threatening me! ”
When I spoke, my voice was so low that only my mother could hear me. When the onlookers heard my mother shouting like this, they naturally thought that I had bullied my mother again.
Those who had been watching here before thought that they were upholding justice, and the newcomers should just join in the fun, and the crowd once again violently stirred up because of their mother's words, and ugly words kept coming out of their mouths.
I can only pretend that I didn't hear it. What can I do? The misunderstood grievances rushed into my head, and my nose was sour and I was about to cry.
But I couldn't hold back my crying, and looked up at the people around me. on their faces
With an expression of disdain, indignation, or mockery. I can assure you that if they had something like eggs or cabbage leaves in their hands, I would have been smashed all over my head.
Everyone here is on the side of justice, and they are crazy to scold me, an unfilial girl, but no one asks if things are what they imagined.
"Look at this pair of dogs and men and women are not talking again!" "It's really a bad day, how can young people be like this now!" "Why don't we call the police! They are all elder abusers, let the law punish them! ”
I don't know who in the crowd came up with this proposal to call the police, and it was immediately echoed by the rest of the people.
"Yes, yes, it's safest to call the police." "Yes, yes, let's call!"
Alarm? What the hell did I do to be treated like this...... I couldn't hold back my tears anymore.
Lu Yiting kept watching me, he quickly noticed my emotions, walked quickly to my side, hugged me in his arms, and comforted my emotions.
"Wow! Still hugging each other! "People are obviously very dissatisfied with the current intimacy between me and Lu Yiting, and they are shouting loudly." Alarm! Alarm! I can't stand it anymore! ”
"Don't...... Don't, it's our family affair, we'll just take care of it ourselves......"
My mother finally said this sentence in a call to call the police, and I poked my head out of Lu Yiting's arms to look at my mother, and found that her eyes had already changed from arrogant and smug just now to panic.
I think so, she herself is a porcelain, but she just happened to run into me and Lu Yiting, plus the police will know if I have abused her after a little checking.
In short, for my mother, going to the police station is harmful to her.
But how can people know what is really going on in the mother's heart? When they heard my mother say this, they thought that Lu Yiting and I had done something to cause my mother not to dare to call the police.
"It's okay aunt, we'll support you!" "Yes, yes, the police will definitely give you justice."
The enthusiasm of the onlookers has not diminished, but they are getting more and more energetic, "Eh! There is a police station just a few hundred meters ahead, let's just pull the aunt and this unfilial girl over, okay! ”
"Okay!" People responded to the call of I don't know who it was, and they were about to pull my mother up from the ground, and some people came to push me, but Lu Yiting took me to avoid it skillfully.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Lu Yiting whispered beside me to comfort me. My heart calmed down suddenly, and I nodded and nestled in Lu Yiting's arms.
Her mother was so frightened by the people who came to pull her that her face turned pale, and she kept saying that she would not go to the police station, but she whimpered and couldn't say a word for a long time, why she didn't go.
Seeing that more and more people came up to help, my mother had been pulled up and pushed for several meters, and more people began to shift their targets to the other protagonist, me.
"Come on, get this woman to the police station too!" "With her concubine!"
I only felt a lot of vigorous pushes on the side to push me and Lu Yiting, and I was hit so that I couldn't stand on my feet, so I could only hold Lu Yiting's clothes tightly to ensure that I didn't fall.
I looked up at Lu Yiting, his face was already ugly.
"Enough!"
Lu Yiting's voice could not be refused overhead. I felt as if no one was pushing me anymore.
From the very beginning of this farce, Lu Yiting did not say a word, and people only regarded him as transparent. Now his sudden words shook everyone and stopped looking at him.
People finally stopped pushing, Lu Yiting lowered his head and said to me, wait for me for a while, let go of me, and find a place in the center of the crowd to stand.
"Everyone, calm down and listen to me", Lu Yiting began to persuade people after making sure that everyone could hear him, "Things are not what you think......
However, before Lu Yiting could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a passerby representing justice, "What! That aunt is like that, it's not what we imagined!"
"Yes, yes, don't think that you are a somewhat famous lawyer who can bully us ordinary people casually!" "You are so protective of that woman, can you believe what you say?"
Obviously, Lu Yiting couldn't calm down this group of people at this moment, and the people who had been quiet for less than a minute just now began to stir again.
Lu Yiting didn't expect these people to be so inaccessible, and he was speechless for a while. I saw that the situation was not right, and quickly gave Lu Yiting a look and asked him not to waste his efforts in vain, this group of people would not listen.
Lu Yiting noticed my eyes, but he didn't stop his movements, only waved his hand to let me calm down a little, raised a few tones and then said,
"I understand everyone's mood right now, so let's do it, in three days, I'll have a press conference." Lu Yiting paused, "At the press conference, I will talk about today's events in detail, can I guarantee that I will give everyone justice?" ”
Hearing Lu Yiting's words, people quieted down again. Lu Yiting saw that the crowd was loose, and then added, "I believe that some of you know me as a person, and I promise as a lawyer that I will definitely give you an explanation." ”
Although Lu Yiting said words similar to pleading, his years of experience as a lawyer made his aura very serious and easy to convince. There was still silence in the crowd.
I watched Lu Yiting control this chaotic scene in just a few minutes, and a little admiration for Lu Yiting rose in my heart.
"Yes! I have dealt with Lawyer Lu before, and I believe in his character, otherwise I will wait to see how Lawyer Lu can give an explanation. ”
It took a long time for the crowd to hear this, and then a few sparse echoes rang out.
Hearing the echo of those few sparse cheers, the crowd of onlookers slowly calmed down.
Indeed, from just now to now, it has always been the old lady's words, and no one knows what the truth is. People slowly figured this out and became less aggressive.
"Yes, yes, since Lawyer Lu has already said so, let's believe him once..."
It seems that Lu Yiting's usual good reputation has played a big role at this moment, and under the leadership of one or two people at the beginning, most people are still willing to give Lu Yiting a chance to explain.
Although a few people still insisted on pulling me and my mother out of the police station, the slightest opposition was silenced by a louder outcry.
Lu Yiting is still very satisfied with the effect achieved by his words, "Since everyone is willing to give me this opportunity, then I will definitely not disappoint everyone." Let's do this today, please disperse!"
Since they have already agreed to give Lu Yiting a chance to explain, then the matter will only have to wait for three days to come out. Of course, people understand this, so after Lu Yiting said this, the crowd dispersed in twos and threes.
As I watched this farce finally come to an end, my heart was finally as relaxed as if I had let go of a big rock. Seeing the crowd disperse, I remembered when my mother had left.
I don't know how to describe today's sudden tragedy, but I can only sigh that it was all over.
At this time, Lu Yiting came to my side and hugged me gently, "I'm sorry, Xinxin, I didn't protect you......"
The self-blame in Lu Yiting's voice made me feel a little inexplicable, "I don't blame you for today's incident, but I want to thank you." ”
"I really don't know what to do if it weren't for you." Maybe it was because the impact of what happened just now was too big for me, and my heart seemed to be several times more fragile at once.
Originally, my awkward personality would never say such a thing, but now I easily said it to Lu Yiting.
I crossed the line again, and after saying that, I cursed myself in my heart, saying that I would wait until I could match Lu Yiting before standing by his side? What's the matter with him on the street like this now!
