72: Gao Ying was attacked

Walking out of the jewelry store, Gao Ying prepared to head back. Today's video footage was definitely enough to last for a long time.

“Watch out!” As they walked out of the mall, several people suddenly rushed over, holding an unknown liquid and preparing to splash it.

Yin Chan and Fu Sheng immediately rushed forward to subdue four of them, while another person was kicked flying by Gao Ying.

The bottle in the person's hand fell to the ground and shattered; the liquid flowed out without any corrosive reaction.

Yin Chan and Fu Sheng snatched the bottles from the four people. Yin Chan opened one and found it was just water, not a corrosive liquid.

“Who are you? Why did you attack Her Highness!” Yin Chan questioned coldly.

“We are just ordinary people! As for why we attacked her? It’s because she doesn't know how to be low-key, spending so much money to buy these useless things.

For those poor families, even a full meal is a luxury. Why doesn't she use this money to help them?” one of the women looked at Gao Ying viciously.

“Exactly! My son is lying in the hospital with a serious illness. I worry myself gray every day over the medical bills, yet you’re here using money to buy these useless things.

Why don't you donate the money?” a scruffy middle-aged man denounced with bloodshot eyes.

“If your son is seriously ill and hospitalized, why didn't you go through official channels? As long as the Yingyi Charity Foundation verifies that the applicant's situation is true, they will transfer the money very quickly,” Gao Ying asked.

“It’s useless. I looked for Yingyi Charity, but the staff only made one payment and then there was no further news.” When the man spoke, a flash of guilt crossed his eyes.

This guilty look did not escape the eyes of the three of them.

Yin Chan immediately inquired about the man's identity.

The man, thinking of something, remained tight-lipped.

“Don't think I have no way of finding out just because you won't talk.” Yin Chan took a photo and sent it directly to the manager of the charity foundation to inquire about the situation.

After a short while, the man's complete information was sent over.

“Your name is Qiao Jianguo, 42 years old this year. You come from a poor family and didn't get married until you were 38.

Your son is 3 years old this year. According to the investigation, your son didn't get sick; he was dropped by you while you were drunk.

He was nearly in shock when he was sent to the hospital and was barely saved through emergency treatment.

Because you are picky but lack real ability, you haven't been able to find a job, so your wife went out to work to support the family.

After this happened, your wife was on the verge of a breakdown and is preparing to divorce you.

The Yingyi Charity Foundation did indeed transfer the first sum of money to your account, but then they stopped.

That was because you took that money and used it for gambling.” Yin Chan read out the entire process.

The onlookers pointed at the man and cursed; they had never seen a father like this.

Dropping the child into the hospital and then taking the child's life-saving money to gamble—such a person is not fit to be a father.

“I also wanted to make the money grow so that my son's medical bills would be covered.

At first, I did win quite a lot, but who knew my luck would turn so bad later? I lost all the money I won, and even the money the charity foundation gave me.” Even now, the man still felt he was not in the wrong.

“You fool, you don't even know you were being set up. Letting you win a little money first is a tactic used by all casinos.

Also, let me clarify one thing: the charity money was not transferred to your account, but to your wife's account instead.

You probably don't know yet, but your son is no longer in critical danger.” Yin Chan really wanted to give this man a beating.

However, this is a society ruled by law now, and it wouldn't be good to take action in front of so many people.

“And as for you all, you are extremists. You've done things like this more than once. Before, because the bottles contained water and didn't cause major harm, you were just released after a lecture.

This time, you've kicked a steel plate. We won't let you get away with it easily,” Fu Sheng said to the others.

“Heh, so what if you have some money? Even if you're rich, what can you do? We didn't cause her any harm. Do you want to abuse private power and use money to bribe the Uncle Cops?” one man said with a face full of indifference, saying this to cut off their thoughts of using connections.

“We are law-abiding citizens, so of course we won't do such a thing. However, every one of you has a criminal record, and our lawyers are already on their way.

Just get ready to go inside.”

According to Fugui's investigation, there were many cases, large and small, associated with these people; they wouldn't be coming out for at least a decade or so.

Looking at her certain gaze, they finally panicked.

But thinking that they had done those things very discreetly and no one would know, they figured this woman must be bluffing them.

The few of them exchanged looks.

The Uncle Cops soon arrived to take the people away, and the three of them—Gao Ying and the others—also went along to give their statements.

Zhou Jingxing arrived at the police station just after them.

He went in and presented the criminal evidence for those people.

Gao Ying and the others came out after finishing their statements, which didn't take much time.

“CEO Gao, the evidence has been submitted. Rest assured, I will make them pay a heavy price.” Zhou Jingxing looked her up and down, and seeing she wasn't injured, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fu Sheng noticed his abnormality and domineeringly put his arm around Gao Ying. “Little Ying, let's go back. You must have been frightened today.”

Gao Ying was just about to say she wasn't frightened when she was pulled into a full embrace by Yin Feng, who had rushed in.

“I'm sorry, Treasure Ying, I'm late. Are you okay?”

“I'm fine. Isn't Yin Chan by my side? Besides, my own skills aren't weak either.” Sensing his nervousness, Gao Ying gently patted his back.

Just as she finished coaxing him, Yin Lin rushed in again, and there was another round of coaxing.

Now she felt that having too many men was also quite taxing on the voice.

She hoped Xia Yang wouldn't come; as for Gao Xuan, since he was in Jiang City, he definitely wouldn't come.

From the moment Yin Feng entered, Zhou Jingxing had been in a very dazed state.

He looked at Fu Sheng, only to see that there was no expression of anger on his face, just some impatience.

When Yin Lin entered later, he seemed to understand something.

This guess was a bit outrageous, but looking at that soft-spoken woman, it also seemed very reasonable.

Gao Ying's hopes were dashed. Just as they reached the entrance, they saw a sports car speeding toward them, followed by law enforcement officers.

“Sister, how are you? Are you hurt?” Xia Yang held her arms and looked her over nervously.

“I'm fine, perfectly fine. There was just water in their bottles,” Gao Ying explained once again.

The law enforcement officers came over with dark faces, gave Xia Yang a lecture, and fined him while deducting points.

“Sister, you really scared me. The internet said there was sulfuric acid in those people's bottles and that you were injured,” Xia Yang said with a sob in his voice.

“Good boy, it's okay. Sister is really fine.” Gao Ying felt very sorry for him as she saw his eyes reddening and filling with tears.

Xia Yang was truly terrified; he locked fingers with her, wanting to stick to her every moment.

Gao Ying didn't refuse either and got into the car just like that.

Zhou Jingxing looked at the four men with distinct styles and the woman who made his heart flutter, not knowing what to do.

He knew he wasn't good enough for Gao Ying, so he wanted to hide his feelings, but seeing today's scene, he felt a bit lost.

As a lawyer, his observation skills were very keen; the relationship between these five people was definitely very close.
