Chapter 666: Chapter 657: The Furious Mrs. Wen
The power of internet public opinion in todayâs society is absolutely not to be underestimated, sometimes even playing a role in overseeing law enforcement departments.
Of course, it can also seriously impact an individual or a business, whether in terms of reputation or interests.
The reason Su Qing came up with this idea wasnât because he had nothing better to do, but because he himself had significant resentment. Not to mention, the little girl calls him "Dad." Seeing his own daughter threatened by others, with her life compared to a dogâs, no one would remain indifferent.
Even unrelated passersby would feel outraged, let alone someone like him who is familiar.
As a major influencer on the internet, dispersing information is a piece of cake for him, with the entry point being Da Huang.
After all, Da Huang is another protagonist in this incidentâitâs perfectly reasonable for him to release information.
Since he is half a stakeholder, isnât it fair to speak up when his own dog faces such a matter? He is a pet blogger, after all.
Thatâs why he came up with this plan. If it were someone like Zhang Chao, and he took action himself, people might say heâs being vindictive. But for strangers, thatâs not an issue; he might even earn a good reputation. The key point is, it allows Da Huang to gain some popularity.
Da Huang hadnât been in the spotlight for a while; it was time for the little cutie to make an appearance.
At 3:30 in the afternoon, in the landladyâs home.
"Dad, how did things go?" Wen Nanqing asked as she looked at the old man sitting on the sofa in the living room.
Upon hearing this, the old man chuckled slightly, with a slight curl of his lips: "You donât trust your dad? Iâve got this figured out. Although the other side has some influence, your dad has been around for years; I can suppress them. However, because itâs not a big deal, the punishment isnât much. But Iâve contacted some old friends. Didnât she say her family operates a restaurant? Weâll take our time with this."
Upon hearing this, Wen Nanqing jumped in place like a little girl: "Yay, Dad, thank you for all your hard work. Let me give you a shoulder massage. You always care the most about me, hehe!"
She then went behind her father and started massaging his shoulders, showing great enthusiasm.
Daughters are like little jackets, good at charming. Even though Wen Nanqing is quite grown up, with a child already in elementary school, she still masters this skill, and her father enjoys it a lot.
"Of course, who would I take care of if not you? My daughter and granddaughter are being bullied; if your dad doesnât make a sound, our family would really lose face in Jiang City." The old man smiled with squinted eyes.
The father and daughter exchanged compliments with smiles on their faces, feeling very content. This was a warm father-daughter relationship, unlike the unreliable Old Su, who often came by for free meals.
Upon hearing this, Wenâs mother came out of the kitchen with a plate of fruit, dissatisfied: "What? Just targeting her familyâs business? Why not have someone arrest her? Sheâs too arrogant. If it werenât for Da Huang following, that shrew would have harmed our little Qing. Spend money, hire someone, investigate her and her family. These kinds of people usually have something dirty on them, like tax evasion, food safety issues, and judging by her demeanor, I bet sheâs bribed with money before. I refuse to believe we canât find her weaknesses; we must send her in.
Even if sheâs absolutely clean, Iâll ruin her reputation, making her famous in Jiang City, giving her and her family some face."
Despite Wenâs motherâs usual gentle demeanor, when she gets mad, even the old man is shaken, finding it headache-inducing.
After all, no matter their age, women are women, with strong vengeful spirits, ignoring anything irrelevant. If I have the means, Iâll go after you even at my own loss.
This time, Jiang Guimei hit Wenâs motherâs sore spot, with a hint of ruthlessness in her tone.
Upon hearing this, the old man shook his head with a wry smile, glancing at his daughter behind him: "See... your mother is still not satisfied, as if I didnât do well enough!"
"Nonsense, you call this well done? Her familyâs little enterprise, if we intend to mess with them, canât we handle it? I want that shrew in jail, best if she gets sentenced!" Wenâs mother said angrily.
In response, Wen Nanqing quickly employed her charms again, pressing her mother onto the sofa: "Mom~~ Dad said itâs too trivial; even Dadâs friends are limited in what they can do. This isnât Dadâs fault. If there were a way, how could Dad not stand up for me!"
"Precisely, thatâs the logic, my daughter understands me," the old man said with a smile, feeling warm in his chest, deeply appreciating his childrenâs understanding.
Seeing this, Wenâs mother sighed, glancing at her husband disdainfully and softly said: "Look at what you two did; neither of you puts my mind at ease. Youâre not as strong as little Su last time, also because thereâs no man capable in Xiaoqingâs family. Otherwise, would you two even be needed?"
Mentioning Su Qing, Wenâs mother felt a bit of regretâcaught on too late. Just like outstanding girls, excellent men are also sought after.
But she had to admire Shen Yiâs foresight. Back when Su Qing hadnât made it, just a common young man, the girl made her move decisively. Looking at her own daughter who was always giggling around, Wenâs mother felt helpless. What are you scared of? Why didnât you dare to compete with Xiao Yi when they werenât together!
If there were a capable man in this family, would such trivial matters need the whole family to mobilize?
Upon hearing Wenâs motherâs words, the old man felt deflated, thinking all his hard work was not even comparable to an outsider.
But Wenâs mother ignored him, continuing: "Hey, wasnât little Su gone since this morning? Said he was going to the police station to find your brother. How is it thereâs still no news? Could something have happened?"
In the morning, when Su Qing left, Shen Yi also left along, though she went to the company, taking Da Huang with her.
First, Da Huang had work, and secondly, she had grown curious about Da Huang. Both of them were gone for half a day, especially Su Qing, who supposedly went to see his son. The lack of news kept Wenâs mother concerned.
"Mom~~ donât worry, itâs broad daylight. What could happen? Heâs a grown man, he wonât get lost. Maybe something came up with my brother, considering they recently started a new project, investing in a movie." The landlady laughed.
Upon hearing this, Wenâs mother nodded, while the old manâs eyes brightened as he smiled with satisfaction.
His son getting along with esteemed young ones pleased him as it broadened his sonâs network.
Just then, the doorbell rang in the living room.
Ding dong
"Who is it?"
"It should be your brother back!"
"Iâll get the door!"
As the landlady opened the door, sure enough, it was Wen Jingqi and Su Qing outside.
Before even entering, they heard Wen Jingqiâs hearty laugh:
"Hahaha, Mom, Dad, Little Qing, this time your brother has given you a little relief, rest assured!"
His voice preceded him, no doubt there was a sense of character.
"Shouting and shouting, what manners!" The old man snorted coldly.
Hearing this, Wen Jingqi immediately fell silent.
But Wenâs mother was delighted, quickly standing up: "Whatâs the situation? Tell us!"
"Well, Mom, thanks to Little Suâs reminder, I found a loophole. If nothing goes wrong, that Jiang Guimei should be going in!" Wen Jingqi laughed heartily.
"Really? Thatâs great, indeed, it takes little Su to step in, shows it pays to have someone on the inside!" Wenâs mother clapped her hands, unusually excited.
Seeing this, Su Qing quickly spoke up: "Auntie, itâs not that serious, just a few days of detention, itâs no real penalty!"
But Wenâs mother didnât mind: "Thatâs still good; seeing her go in makes me happy, better than some others!"
With that, she glanced at her husband.
The old man: ...
