Chapter 713 - The Crowd Is Enraged

Name:A Valiant Life Author:Xin Feng
“What is it called?” Reporter Jiang had a strange expression on his face as he asked once more. Could the two of them have gotten it wrong? How could something like that happen in Master Lin’s Nanshan Children’s Welfare Institute? Moreover, a while ago, all of Master Lin’s children had won prizes at the Youth Cup competition organized by the Chinese Arts Association. Although it didn’t have a huge impact, all the reporters knew about this and even specially reported this piece of news, calling those children Chinese Art geniuses.

Wang Cheng Shan was now filled with a desire to cause public dispute so that he could bring the child back with him and then have the child checked at a hospital. How could he have noticed Reporter Jiang’s expression?

“Nanshan Children’s Welfare Institute. The person-in-charge has the surname Lin.”

Reporter Jiang was still in disbelief. “Are you sure?”

Qiu Yan Lan said, “Of course we’re sure. I remember that name clearly. How could we have gotten it wrong?”

Xiao Jiang said, “Brother Jiang, even if it’s Master Lin’s Welfare Institute, they can’t be so overbearing. These people are the child’s relatives. What rights does the Welfare Institute have to refuse them?”

Wang Cheng Shan and Qiu Yan Lan knew what they meant when they said ‘Master Lin’.

However, they didn’t think about all this. All they wanted was to cause public protests so that they could bring Lil’ Fatty back.

The Chief Editor’s office.

Reporter Jiang couldn’t quite figure it out. He felt that it would be best to report this to the Chief Editor first to see if the Chief Editor would have a solution. “Chief Editor, a couple has come and they’re talking about a certain situation…”

After explaining the full situation, Reporter Jiang asked, “Chief Editor, what do you think we should do about this?”

The Chief Editor stayed silent for a moment before saying, “We’re news workers and we rely on news to make a living. But you should go to the Welfare Institute to see if the situation is really like what they have said. If it’s true, you can write an article about this but don’t add in your own opinions and emotions.”

Reporter Jiang nodded, “Understood, Chief Editor.”

Although Master Lin was very well known and very well-liked by reporters, they still had to get news. However, they would definitely only report the truth and they wouldn’t add in personal opinions.

To be able to do this was already pretty good.

After all, some reporters would add in their personal emotions when writing news articles. Sometimes, their rhythm would be brought up because of this.

The next day!

A phone call woke Lin Fan up from his sleep. The caller was Han Lu.

“What is it?”

A panicky voice came from the other end of the call, “Master Lin, something has happened. Lil’ Fatty’s Uncle and Aunt have put up a report online about our Welfare Institute and the two of them are at our entrance right now with a banner in their hands, demanding for Lil’ Fatty.”

Lin Fan frowned. “That’s really happening?”

“Mmm. Just look at the news. The number of spectators around here is increasing.”

After hanging up, Lin Fan unlocked his phone. Indeed, a news article appeared before him.

‘Relatives want to bring home their nephew but Nanshan Children’s Welfare Institute refuses to hand over the child.’

With a quick scan, he could tell that this article wasn’t biased towards any side. Instead, it was curiously investigating the incident and was rather fair and unbiased.

Meanwhile, the comments below varied greatly.

“The child’s own relatives have come. Why won’t the Welfare Institute hand over the child?”

“Welfare Institutes nowadays are very corrupted. There are countless cases of child abuse.”

“This f*cking Welfare Institute. The child’s relatives have come, what rights do they have to not hand over the child? The best education is to let the child be with his relatives.”

“The person-in-charge of this Nanshan Children’s Welfare Institute is Master Lin. I can’t quite understand why Master Lin is doing this.”

“According to my knowledge, Master Lin puts his heart into managing Nanshan Children’s Welfare Institute and the children there are all very fortunate. But now that the child’s relatives have come, I think that the child should be handed over. I feel that Master Lin hasn’t handled this matter well.”

“^that makes a lot of sense.”

“I, on the other hand, feel that it is best if Master Lin takes care of these children.”

“Since the relatives aren’t the child’s parents, why should the child leave with them? The child should be allowed to decide for himself.”

“D*mn. I feel like Master Lin is like a news envoy. Just after a short period of time, Master Lin has appeared once again. This is scary.”

“Haha.”

The comment section was bustling but there weren’t any extreme actions. To some netizens, this matter was a great topic of discussion and they each had their own opinions.

The entrance of Nanshan Children’s Welfare Institute.

Lin Fan stopped his car and looked into the distance. There was a crowd standing across the road from the Welfare Institute. It seemed very noisy over there.

Meanwhile, Director Huang was outside and it seemed like she was relating something to them.

At that moment, Wang Cheng Shan and Qiu Yan Lan were raising their banner. When they saw Lin Fan, they shouted, “He’s here! That guy is here! He’s the one who won’t let our nephew go.”

“We’re the child’s relatives. We’ve done all the proper procedures. Why won’t he let him go?”

“Look! That’s the person who is detaining our nephew in the Welfare Institute. I don’t even know how much our nephew has suffered in there.”

The crowd looked at Lin Fan. Naturally, they all recognized him. After all, there weren’t many people in Shanghai who didn’t know about Master Lin. Even if they hadn’t seen him before, they would’ve heard about him.

Upon reaching the entrance, Lin Fan walked straight into the Welfare Institute without looking back for a single moment.

Director Huang followed closely behind. “Master Lin, what do you think we should do?”

Lin Fan waved his hand. “No need to care about them. Let them keep making noise.”

Lil’ Fatty was cowering behind Han Lu. He had already seen the situation outside and he was very afraid.

Lin Fan came to Lil’ Fatty’s side and patted him on his head. “Don’t be afraid. Uncle Lin won’t let them take you away.”

Lil’ Fatty nodded but it was clear that this incident had affected him greatly.

Outside.

Wang Cheng Shan and Qiu Yan Lan saw that the opposition was ignoring them and became anxious. However, they didn’t do anything too drastic. Qiu Yan Lan sat on the ground and started wailing.

“I’m begging you, please hand over my nephew. We’ll give you anything you want. Just let our nephew go!”

“My nephew’s father passed away prematurely and his mother remarried. We’re his only remaining relatives. How can you be so heartless…?”

Some of the older men and women spectating were already tearing. Then, they started yelling our furiously as well.

“How can you do something like this?”

“You are simply a brute! Hurry up and hand the child over!”

“Hand him over! Hurry up and hand him over! His only relatives are here, what rights do you have to keep the child?”

“Big Sisters, don’t worry. If they don’t hand the child over, we’ll snatch him over.”

“That’s right. How can something like this happen in our peaceful society? What is the police doing?”

The crowd was very easily riled up. To them, Wang Cheng Shan and Qiu Yan Lan were the weak and people would always stand on the side of the weak.

Otherwise, all this wouldn’t have happened. It had initially just been a small conflict but now, the crowd had been enraged and they were all protesting.

Hearing all this noise outside, Lin Fan’s brows furrowed as he stood at the metal gate.

“Everyone, shut up. You don’t know anything and yet you’re blindly making such a ruckus.

However, the shouts did not stop. Instead, the crowd became even more agitated.
