Chapter 1957 Who was disfigured?
Fu Qin stared blankly at her, only realizing her face was streaked with tears when she came to her senses. Recalling the scene in her dream, she fearfully leaned over and hugged Zhang Ran, sobbing softly, "I really had a nightmare, in the dream they, they... they... sob sob sob..."
"Don't be afraid, it's just a dream, it's all fake," Zhang Ran comforted her gently, but her eyes were terrifyingly sinister.
"I know it's fake, but it feels so real." Fu Qin sobbed, heartbroken.
She knew very well that if Zhang Ran hadn't accompanied her on this trip, she would have definitely been ruined by the wedding night pranks, and the result would have been that she would have completely collapsed.
In her dream, she jumped into the public well in Stone Village and died.
Even now that she's awake, she can still feel the despair of being suffocated by the cold well water seeping into her body.
After her death, her parents came to Stone Village, hoping to seek justice for her. However, the villagers unanimously said that she committed suicide by jumping into the well and that it had nothing to do with them.
Her parents wanted her body back, and they claimed she had been burned to ashes, which they were given as a makeshift solution of some wood ash from a pickle jar.
It wasn't until a crazy little girl told her parents the truth that they learned her body had been sold after her death to arrange a ghost marriage. In order to avenge her, they poisoned the well, killing everyone in the village.
Ultimately, the parents were also punished by law.
"A crazy little girl?" Zhang Ran asked casually.
Fu Qin recalled the face of the crazy little girl in her dream and said with certainty, "It was Xinghua."
Xinghua? Zhang Ran gently stroked her back, continuing to comfort her, "I'm here, Xinghua is fine, she won't go crazy, and you won't get into any trouble."
Kindness and innocence should be the most beautiful things in the world, but they are exploited by bad people. Pure white paper is maliciously stained with black ink and eventually becomes a piece of waste paper that is thrown into the trash can.
Fu Qin leaned against Zhang Ran's chest and cried herself to sleep.
After tossing and turning most of the night, I inevitably ended up staying in bed the next day.
When Zhang Ran and the others got up, it was already 10 a.m. and they were just about to go out to find food when Song Song pushed open the door and entered.
The three of them went out together and found a restaurant to eat at.
While eating, Song Song reported, "I went to the police station again this morning, and those people have dropped the case; they're not pressing charges anymore." He then looked up at Zhang Ran, "What do you mean?"
Fu Qin retorted indignantly, "They're the ones who accused us first!" Then she frowned, "But it's strange, why did they suddenly stop accusing us?" It couldn't be that they had a change of heart, could it? But those people are heartless and cruel, where would they get a conscience?
Zhang Ran didn't answer Song Song, but instead asked, "Then you must have been to the hospital, right? How badly were they injured?"
"Some have lost their hands, some have lost their legs." Song Song reported like an emotionless robot: "Some have been disfigured, and two people have lost their fertility forever. It is said that Erdan was kicked to pieces by you. One of them was a minor, I think his name was Shi Hu."
While the other men pounced on Zhang Ran, Shi Hu, always picking on the weakest target, chose Fu Qin as his first choice.
Although Fu Qin was older than him, she was small and weak, and she was no match for Shi Hu. Just as she was about to take out her electric baton to fight back, Zhang Ran had a free hand and kicked Shi Hu's genitals, destroying them.
"Who disfigured you?" Zhang Ran couldn't remember disfiguring anyone's face. Even if she knocked out their teeth, it wouldn't be enough to disfigure them.
“The bride is Gui Xiang,” Song Song reminded her. “The doctor said her hair will never grow back; she’s disfigured.” Observing Zhang Ran’s expression, he tentatively suggested, “Since they’re not going to sue, should we leave it at that?” After all, they were seriously injured and left with lifelong disabilities, while we were unharmed. Continuing to entangle ourselves would be disadvantageous for us and could give others ammunition to spread the word.
