Chapter 493: Reporting to the Police

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Yueyue, if there’s anything, just tell me. 1’11 help you.” Wen Miao was now very worried that Zhang Yue was targeted by the Shen family and was eager to find out the truth.

“No need for your help. Go, both of you, hurry back to your own home. Otherwise, I’ll call Old Wen and ask him to come and teach you a lesson!” Seeing this, Zhang Tan directly pushed Wen Miao aside.

Wen Long quickly supported his sister, asking, “Uncle Zhang, what exactly happened? If something bad happened to Yueyue, why won’t you let her call the police?”

“You don’t understand!” Zhang Tan couldn’t take it anymore. “Do you know how important reputation is for a girl? I advise you siblings to keep your mouths shut. She’s just eighteen. If the events of tonight tarnish her reputation, her life will be ruined!”

“Uncle Zhang, I think you’re wrong!” Wen Long strongly disagreed, “Even if a girl is mistreated, she shouldn’t bear the blame. She has the right to speak the truth, let the police catch the culprit for her. And no matter what happened, I believe Yueyue is innocent. Dow can it ruin her life?”

“I’m her real father! If 1 don’t want her to call the police, she can’t!” Zhang Tan, fed up with arguing, came over to push them out.

Wen Miao’s eyes never left Zhang Yue. Seeing her and her brother about to be pushed out, Wen Miao hurriedly shouted, “Yueyue! If you want to call the police, my brother and 1 will go with you now. You don’t have to listen to your dad!”

“What nonsense are you talking about here!” Zhang Tan was about to hit someone.

“Stop!” Behind them, Zhang Yue, who had been silent until now, finally stood up from the sofa. The blanket she had been wrapped in slipped off.

This movement made everyone gasp.

At this moment, Zhang Yue’s clothes were tattered, stained with blood, with clear marks of constriction on her ankles and wrists. Her mouth was bleeding from self-biting, and there was an ambiguous bruise on her neck.

Seeing this, Zhang Tan became furious, bent down to pick up the fallen blanket, and threw it directly over Zhang Yue’s head. “How dare you stand up! Aren’t you ashamed?”

“Dad! Brother Long was right just now. I am clearly the victim, and I want to call the police!” Zhang Yue was never so determined before.

She had known since childhood that her father had a violent temper and often beat her mother after getting drunk. The fear of her father buried in her bones made her live in constant fear at home and never dared to defy her father’s wishes.

Only in Wen Miao’s home could she find a moment of relief.

She used to envy Wen Miao, who had such a loving mother and a gentle brother, while she only had a weak mother who was constantly beaten but never resisted.

Even so, this time Zhang Yue didn’t want to compromise any longer.

“Oh, everything 1 do is for your own good. You’re my own daughter. How could I harm you?” Zhang Tan sat helplessly on the sofa, sighing continuously.

Zhang Yue nervously clutched her school uniform, and the wounds on her lower lip started bleeding again.

At this moment, she looked pale and haggard, but her expression was unusually resolute. “Miaomiao, 1 want to call the police. Will you take me there?”

“Sure!” Wen Miao took the blanket, carefully draped it over her, and then hugged her shoulder. “No matter who bullied you, my brother and I will always be with you!”

When the three of them came out of the police station, it was nearing midnight.

Zhang Yue suggested not going home, so Wen Miao took her to her own room.

After telling the police about her nightmarish experience, Zhang Yue felt physically and mentally exhausted. She lay on the bed after taking a shower, staring blankly at the ceiling.

Wen Miao, also covered in dirt, took a shower as well. Coming out, she found Zhang Yue still staring at the ceiling. Her heart tightened, and she quickly sat on the bedside to comfort her, “It’s over. 1 believe the police will catch the culprit soon.”

At these words, Zhang Yue finally turned her head and reacted. She stared at her friend who was comforting her by the bedside. “Miaomiao.”

“Yes?” Wen Miao responded gently.

Zhang Yue’s gaze lowered, falling on the dirty school uniform casually thrown aside. Suddenly, she asked, “Did you also encounter something tonight? Were you also…?”

Wen Miao was stunned for a moment, shook her head, and said, “No, 1 was threatened by people sent by the Shen family. They warned me to keep my mouth shut and not get involved. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be polite next time.”

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yue, in deep thought, lowered her eyes, “Do you think the person I encountered tonight was also sent by the Shen family?”

Wen Miao understood what her friend was worried about, hesitated for a moment, and said, “Let’s wait for the results of the police investigation. I don’t think so. They don’t seem like they want to cause too much trouble.. If it’s really done by the Shen family, I will definitely tell Shu’er and let her take revenge for you!”
