Su Jin went forward and patted Tang Yuwei on her shoulder. She didn’t believe that there was no justice in this world. Was there no one who could punish these demons? These demons would not go unpunished; they would receive the punishment they deserved. They should also go to hell. Su Jin said coldly,
“Give me the name list. I will give it to the mayor. I will get the mayor to help you get justice!”
Tang Yuwei smiled bitterly. She was just a commoner and a poor one. Her family had no money and no powerful relationships. Why would the mayor care? Also, the mayor could very well be part of the gang. Tang Yuwei replied bitterly,
“Why would the mayor meet just anybody? It’s better not to bother. I’ve accepted my fate. I can only say that I’m destined for a hard life.”
Tang Yuwei then pushed Hou Wan’er and Su Jin away. No one had noticed the unusual circumstances in the room yet. Once they noticed, all three of them would not be able to leave. Su Jin and Hou Wan’er might also be forced to be like her. Tang Yuwei said immediately to Su Jin and Hou Wan’er,
“Please leave now. When his people arrive, none of us will be able to leave. I can’t drag you into this. If these people take a fancy to you, they’ll be like mad dogs, and you won’t be able to escape.”
Hou Wan’er went up and held Tang Yuwei’s hand. They had come here today to save Tang Yuwei. Their effort would go to waste if only she and Su Jin left. They couldn’t leave Tang Yuwei behind. Hou Wan’er said assertively,
“We’ll leave together. Or we’ll all stay!”
Tang Yuwei shook her head. These people were all high-ranking officials or nobles. Even if Hou Wan’er and Su Jin’s families were rich, they might not be able to fight them. They might also inject drugs forcibly into Su Jin and Hou Wan’er. Tang Yuwei shook off Hou Wan’er’s hand and insisted,
“Hurry up and go! Don’t bother with me anymore.”
Hou Wan’er still did not want to give up on Tang Yuwei. She did not want Tang Yuwei to face this group of demons any longer. Since they were already here, they shouldn’t give up so easily. They must take Tang Yuwei with them. Hou Wan’er was about to persuade Tang Yuwei further when Su Jin suddenly said,
“Okay, we’ll go but I have something to ask you!”
Tang Yuwei heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this. She was willing to do anything as long as they left. She had already said what needed to be said, so there’s nothing she wouldn’t say now. Tang Yuwei really didn’t want to involve them, so she said,
“Ask away. I’ll tell you everything I know.”
Su Jin’s expression was somewhat gloomy as she looked at the unconscious Director Wang. She didn’t know how many others had been harmed by these animals. Tang Yuwei couldn’t be the only one. Since they were saving Tang Yuwei, they should save them all. Su Jin asked coldly,
“How many others have been persecuted like you?”
Tang Yuwei’s face turned pale when she heard this. She thought for a while and nodded then shook her head again. Hou Wan’er was very confused about Tang Yuwei’s reaction. She nodded and then shook her head, what did this mean? Tang Yuwei then replied self-mockingly,
“Quite a number of people. But many of them came from the slums like me and gave up resisting after learning the identities of these people. Most became very well-behaved. The well-behaved ones are very lucky because if they are comply, they won’t be forced to take drugs.”
“But I always felt that there should be justice in this world. I wanted to escape. I wanted these animals to go to hell, so I was forcibly injected with drugs!”
When Su Jin heard these words, the anger in her eyes could not be suppressed. These supposed high-ranking officials actually did such despicable things behind closed doors. They deserved to die. Su Jin pulled herself together, walked up to Tang Yuwei and said,
“I understand. Come, leave with us now!”
Tang Yuwei’s face went blank. Why did they still insist on taking her with them? If all three of them left, these people might not find Su Jin and Hou Wan’er, but they would find her. They might even harm her family members. Tang Yuwei dared not leave. These people knew where she lived, even where her parents worked! She replied bitterly,
“Su Jin, don’t be like this. We agreed that you guys will leave without me! If I leave with you, they will come after me, even my family members!”
