“I adopted the orphan of my friend and doted on her as my own daughter.
But after she started college, she let herself go, indulging in play and flaunting wealth, and failing every course.
I tried to persuade her many times to no avail, so I had to freeze her credit card, aiming to keep her living expenses below ten thousand.
Unexpectedly, she hated me for it and went online to report and slander me under her real name.
She said I had a pedophile tendency and adopted her to satisfy my lewd desires.
She also claimed that I embezzled her parents’ inheritance and thus became wealthy today.
I was cursed as a beast by the whole network, while she transformed into a tragic female internet celebrity by slandering me.
Not long after, she returned home.
Faking a pitiful look in front of the camera and the netizens, she said, “I’m sorry… I’m just coming back to pack my luggage…”
After turning off the live – stream, she changed her face, looking at me with hatred, “I’m not your biological daughter, what right do you have to control me!
“My parents were so rich back then, didn’t you adopt me just to embezzle their inheritance?
“The money I spend should be mine! What right do you have to interfere!”
After saying that, she stabbed me to death with a knife.
After my death, she faked the scene to make it seem like I had bad intentions and she was acting in self – defense.
She quickly inherited my property and went abroad to squander it.
Leaving me with the crime of being a molester until my death.
When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day I just decided to freeze my adopted daughter’s credit card.
This time, I’m going to terminate the adoption relationship as well.
You want to inherit the debt of up to 100 million left by your parents? Fine, I’ll give it to you!
“Why can’t I use my credit card?!”
“I froze it. From now on, you’ll have to fend for yourself.”
When I realized I was reborn, I froze not only the credit card limit but everything for her.
Until my death in the previous life, I couldn’t believe that the daughter I had raised and cherished for more than ten years would kill me with her own hands.
When she slandered me as a pedophile, embezzling her parents’ property and molesting her for more than ten years.
I didn’t blame her too much, just thinking she was led astray and had entered a belated rebellious period.
But I was wrong.
She had become so bad that there was no cure.
I might as well have fed my kindness to the dogs over the years.
Such an ungrateful daughter, anyone who wants her can have her.
“What right do you have to freeze my credit card? Unfreeze it immediately!”
Listening to the hysteria on the other end of the phone, I sneered helplessly, “Liu Ruyan, I’ve been more than kind to your parents by raising you for more than ten years. Since you don’t strive to improve, I don’t need to support you anymore.
“From today on, we’ll sever the father – daughter relationship.”
“Severing the relationship is fine, but unfreeze the credit card first. I’m outside waiting to pay! Do you hear me, Wang Zihao? Unfreeze it for me right away!”
She kept calling me Wang Zihao, and I had never even been called dad.
I treated her like a daughter, but she probably only regarded me as an ATM.
I hung up the phone.
No longer listening to her roar.
Taking a few sticks of incense and some fruits, I went to the graves of Lao Liu and his wife.
Lao Liu was my best friend and childhood buddy. We had an extremely good relationship.
However, misfortune befell unexpectedly. One summer more than ten years ago, when he was taking his wife back to her娘家, the car suddenly had a flat tire for no apparent reason.
The car couldn’t stop and fell off the cliff directly.
The couple died on the spot.
Liu Ruyan in the back seat, thanks to the child seat and her small size, miraculously survived.
But her survival seemed to become a burden, and none of the relatives wanted her.
They said she was a bane, that in just a few years after her birth, she had killed her parents.
Her parents were in huge debt because of her, and they suddenly died. They probably couldn’t pay it off and committed suicide.
The village committee tried to persuade them many times, but still, no one was willing to adopt her.
When Liu Ruyan was about to be sent to an orphanage, I couldn’t bear to see it.
I went and took her in, and took care of her for more than ten years.
Sigh…
I let out a soft sigh.
Who would have thought that I had taken in a bane.
The weeds were overgrown in front of Lao Liu’s grave. It had been about half a year since I last came.
Every time I come, I clean it up.
The flowers I brought last time were left with only the plastic wrapping.
When Liu Ruyan was little, I was afraid it would affect her mental health, so I didn’t bring her here.
When she grew up and I wanted to bring her, she didn’t want to come.
I picked up the trash and squatted in front of the grave.
“Lao Liu, you’re so at ease. You’ve been sleeping for more than ten years with your eyes closed. These past ten years of mine…”
“Forget it, I won’t talk about it. I came today just to see you and tell you that I’ve raised Ruyan to 18 years old. It’s time for her to be independent.”
I inserted the incense into the ground. It makes me feel at ease to let you know before doing something.
When I got home, I found the door open, and the inside was in a mess. All kinds of broken items were scattered on the ground.
Thinking there was a thief, I rushed in quickly.
After looking around, I saw Liu Ruyan sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed, panting heavily, and staring at me viciously.
“Wang Zihao, what right do you have to freeze my bank card!
“Do you know how embarrassing I was in the bar just now! So many friends were watching me, and I couldn’t take out a single penny!”
Saying that, she poured a cup of hot water on me.
My body hurt, but my heart hurt even more!
For more than ten years, even a stone should have been warmed up, right?
I’ve always treated her well over the years.
Just afraid that she would go bad at a young age, I controlled her a bit in terms of money.
But in terms of education, food, drink, and daily necessities, everything I provided for her was of high quality and cost a lot.
Now, I only got such treatment in return.
I didn’t get angry. I simply cleaned up the room and pointed outside.
“Get out.”
Liu Ruyan pointed at herself in disbelief and asked me word by word.
“You want me to get out?
“What right do you have to make me leave!”
I looked expressionless and said word by word, “Just because this is my house.”
Liu Ruyan sneered, “Your house? Wang Zihao, you really have no shame. Is this your house? Are you sure!
“Don’t forget when you bought this house. You bought it after my parents died!
“This house was bought with my parents’ money! It’s you who should get out!”
It was not until she denounced me online in my previous life that I knew Liu Ruyan had always thought I had embezzled her parents’ inheritance.
Afraid that she would feel inferior and couldn’t hold her head up if she knew the truth, I had never told her before.
Her parents didn’t have any inheritance at all!
There was only a huge debt of up to 100 million due to business failure!
All my money was earned by my own hard work.
This villa was bought with a loan when I gritted my teeth, in order to let her go to the best school.
In those years, I was so busy that I almost couldn’t afford three meals. While paying off the loan, I also had to worry about her nutritional balance, fearing that she wouldn’t eat well and grow tall.
I remember once, a rich kid in the villa area pointed at Liu Ruyan and said she was trying to look rich when her family was actually poor. She was very sad and cried in her room for most of the night.
I thought I had to strive for dignity, so I worked even harder.
My career gradually improved.
But then, the creditors of the high – amount debt her parents owed came to me.
They said that since I had adopted the child, I should bear the previous generation’s debt.
I knew a bit about the law and knew it was nonsense, so I didn’t take it seriously.
But I didn’t expect them to say that if I didn’t pay back the money, they would double the revenge on Liu Ruyan in the future.
Bad debt? It didn’t exist.
Even if it meant selling her kidneys and selling her abroad, they would get the money back.
This was already a death threat.
I could have chosen to call the police.
But I also knew that unless it was a desperate situation, the problem couldn’t be completely solved.
To protect Liu Ruyan, I could only promise to pay it back slowly in the future.
Don’t push, or I won’t pay a penny.
Anyway, with the development of my career, as long as things went smoothly, I could even afford two billion, not to mention one billion.
I originally thought that as long as Liu Ruyan studied hard and grew up well, I would be worthy of Lao Liu.
But I didn’t expect that after she went to college, she changed.
Or rather, after she became an adult, she released her suppressed nature.
She was addicted to high – consumption and flaunting wealth, and with the money she spent on her boyfriend, her monthly living expenses were terrifyingly high.
The money wasn’t something I couldn’t afford.
But a person who couldn’t even control their consumption desires, how could they control a company and money in the future?
What’s more, that debt of 100 million was like the Sword of Damocles hanging over my head!
I earnestly advised her countless times.
But she turned a deaf ear and didn’t listen at all.
Instead, she became more and more arrogant and disrespectful to me.
“What are you still looking at! Either unfreeze my credit card or get out!”
Seeing that I didn’t respond, Liu Ruyan came over and pushed me hard.
Even, she slapped me in the face.
I endured the burning pain on my face, sighed, grabbed her arm, and pushed her out of the villa.
“Don’t come back in the future. I don’t have a daughter like you.”
“Wang Zihao, you bastard! You usurp my parents’ property, and I won’t let you get away with it!”
Listening to the yelling outside, I murmured in my heart.
“Liu Ruyan, you’d better not come back.
“Lao Liu, this is the last thing I can do for you. If you have a spirit in heaven, go persuade your daughter to stop acting recklessly, otherwise… I can’t take our friendship into account anymore.”
But as it turned out, things were developing in a bad direction.
Liu Ruyan called the police.
She came to the villa with the police.
After opening the door, Liu Ruyan pointed at me angrily.
“Police officers, it’s him. He霸占 my parents’ property left to me, bought this villa, and kicked me out!
“Arrest him immediately and put him in prison. Preferably, never let him out for the rest of his life!”
The police officer saluted me, “Hello, comrade. We’re here to understand the situation. Please cooperate.”
I nodded and invited the police officers in.
After serving several cups of tea, I said directly, “Her parents did leave something.”
Liu Ruyan looked very proud, “You see, I said our family was rich! This Wang Zihao even lied to me that my family was poor, just to embezzle my family’s property! Disgusting!
“Hurry up and hand it over to me!”
I nodded and looked at her, “As long as you don’t regret it.”
I walked back to the bedroom and took out a bank card and a wrinkled document.
Liu Ruyan was very excited and snatched it, her eyes shining with greed.
“One hundred million? My god, our family is so rich!”
I sneered. Only looking at the amount and not the content? All those years of study went to waste!
“Wang Zihao, is the money in the card? Tell me quickly!”
I nodded, “The money is in the card. Sign it and you can take it.”
Without me looking for a pen, Liu Ruyan quickly took one out of her Chanel bag and signed her name rapidly.
Then she even kissed the bank card hard, “I’m rich, ha ha, one hundred million, I can’t spend it all! Ha ha ha!”
I calmly put away the signed paper and took a photo and sent it to the creditor.
After sending it, I felt the burden on my body lighten instantly.
From now on, I could finally live a normal life.
No need to painstakingly save up the 100 – million cash flow.
No need to work so hard day and night.
My current assets were enough for me to live a comfortable life for the rest of my life.
“Wang Zihao, I really despise you. You stole so much money from our family and were reluctant to spend hundreds of thousands on me every month! This is one hundred million. The interest in the bank is enough to spend!”
I sneered, “Take a good look at what’s written.” I handed over my phone, opened the picture, and enlarged it.
“What do I need to look at clearly? Isn’t this one hundred million, one…”
Liu Ruyan suddenly snatched the phone, and after looking at it for a while, the phone fell out of her hand.
“Wang Zihao, why did my parents’ inheritance become a debt? Why is it a debt!”
Liu Ruyan grabbed me like crazy and shook me hard.
The police officers quickly stepped forward to pull her away.
“Madam, calm down!”
Liu Ruyan’s eyes widened, and she couldn’t come to her senses for a long time. She roared hysterically.
“Wang Zihao, give me an explanation!!”
I looked calm, and there was no sadness or joy in my eyes as I looked at her, “What’s there to explain? Everyone in your family knows that your parents owed money. You can ask anyone and they’ll give you the answer.
“Don’t you think about it? If there was such a huge inheritance of 100 million, would your relatives not want you? Would it be my turn, an outsider, to adopt you?”
Saying that, I let out a long breath.
“You’re hopeless, and I can’t control you anymore.
“Just right, with the police officers here, I’ll make it clear. From now on, we’ll owe each other nothing.
“I’ve done my best in raising you for more than ten years and have a clear conscience!”
Liu Ruyan shook her head vigorously, picked up the phone from the ground in a frenzy and threw it hard. “I don’t want it. I don’t want it anymore. These debts have nothing to do with me. I’m not their child!”
The police once again controlled Liu Ruyan, who was on the verge of going berserk. They then asked me for the property ownership certificate and inquired about some detailed issues from that year before taking Liu Ruyan away.
As soon as they left, I took the household register and went to terminate the adoption relationship. I might as well have never raised this girl.
But Liu Ruyan found new ways to pester me.
That night, the doorbell rang. I looked through the peephole and saw it was Liu Ruyan. She was soaked through and her eyes were dull.
“Dad… open the door.”
Hearing this, a pang of bitterness welled up in my heart. For more than ten years, I had always treated her like my own daughter, holding her dear and doing my best to give her the best even when life was tough for me. But I had never received a single “dad” from her. Hearing it today, I didn’t feel touched. Instead, I felt wronged and wanted to laugh. She only called me dad when she was at the end of her rope. How ironic.
“Don’t call me dad. I’ve never regarded you as my daughter. Leave.”
I expressed my thoughts through the door. Liu Ruyan suddenly burst into tears. “Dad, I was wrong. I was really wrong. Please let me in. You know I’m most afraid of thunder and rain.”
It was indeed raining outside, with thunder rumbling. But just thinking about the heartless stab she gave me in my past life, I could still feel the pain in my chest. Eventually, I didn’t open the door.
But I never expected that she would call a locksmith and break into the house in the middle of the night.
When I was sound asleep, I felt someone beside me touching my body. I woke up with a start and found Liu Ruyan next to me, wearing pajamas.
“How did you get in?”
“Dad… I was really wrong.”
She sobbed and tried to throw herself into my arms, but I immediately dodged. The words she used to slander me in my past life were still swirling in my mind. If she did something out of line now and secretly took pictures, I would never be able to defend myself.
“Get out.”
“I won’t.”
Liu Ruyan crawled towards me, trying to get closer. I sternly warned her.
“Don’t come any closer! We’ll talk about things during the day tomorrow. Go to your own room.”
Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan’s eyes suddenly lit up. “Dad, do you forgive me? Okay, I’ll go back to my room right away!”
She ran back and closed the door for me. I let out a long sigh and lay weakly on the bed, looking at the ceiling. At this moment, Liu Ruyan probably didn’t have the idea of slandering me yet.
Early the next morning, Liu Ruyan had already gotten up and, to my surprise, even made breakfast for me.
“Dad, come and have breakfast.”
“Don’t call me dad. I’m not used to it. I made myself clear yesterday. Since you’re here, take your household register.”
I handed her the household register. Liu Ruyan took it, and her eyes gradually dimmed from bright.
“You’re kicking me out?”
The new household register only had her name on it. I nodded. “Yes, we agreed to sever the father – daughter relationship. Besides, you’re not my biological daughter anyway.”
“Sever the relationship? Do you want me to die! I have nothing and I can do nothing. How can I pay back so much money!
“How can you be worthy of my parents by doing this!”
Looking at the person in front of me, who was once again in a hysterical state, I got angry and pointed at her furiously.
“Don’t mention your parents!
“Whether I’m worthy of them or not is not for you to judge!
“But what about you? Are you worthy of your parents?! They’ve been dead for more than ten years. Have you ever gone to pay your respects? I asked you to go, but did you?”
Liu Ruyan was frightened by my roar. She said uneasily, “I… I regarded you as my real dad!”
I let out a sarcastic laugh. “Stop right there. Don’t say anything against your conscience. We both know the truth.
“Yesterday, I burned incense for your parents and made everything clear. There’s no room for turning back. Leave.
“Don’t call the locksmith to open the door again in the future, or I’ll call the police.”
Liu Ruyan was so angry that her body was shaking. “Wang Zihao, you’re forcing me to a dead end!”
I shook my head. “You’ve made your own choices. I’m not forcing you.”
“You’re so heartless. After more than ten years, this is how you treat me! I’ve said I was wrong and I’ll change. Why don’t you believe me!”
If I hadn’t died in my past life, I would have believed her. I would have been stupid enough to give her another chance. But I’ve already died once, and I’ve learned her true nature at the cost of my life.
I opened the door and drove Liu Ruyan out. Liu Ruyan smashed the door and cursed outside for a long time, but I remained unmoved. After a long time, the noise outside stopped.
But how could the storm subside so easily? What was meant to happen in my life, even after being reborn, I couldn’t escape.
That very night, a friend called me and said I was trending. He also asked if I had offended someone, and why they were targeting people around me to get at me. I was confused at first, but then I quickly realized something. I turned on my phone and directly found Liu Ruyan’s personal video account.
Just like the slander in my past life, it came as expected.
In the video, Liu Ruyan was kneeling on the ground with her ID card in hand, crying. She said she had experienced a dark fifteen – year adoption life. At the age of four, her parents died in a cliff – fall, and she was left helpless, being forcibly sent to me for foster care. And I was a crazy pedophile who had been molesting and violating her for years. When she went to college, because she needed more money, I got tired of her and, thinking that the return didn’t match the investment, heartlessly kicked her out of the house. She also said that I used underhanded methods to transfer my huge debt to her parents and finally tricked her into signing. She was only 19 years old but already burdened with nearly 100 million in debt. Now she couldn’t survive and only wanted to die. But before she died, she didn’t want me to have an easy time either. She was determined to report me, make me bear the consequences, and asked netizens to support her and seek justice for her.
I checked the playback volume. It wasn’t a huge hit yet. It should have only been seen by people she knew first. I called her.
“Liu Ruyan, do you know what you’re doing? Are you sure you can bear the consequences of this?”
“What consequences? What I said is the truth. Your recording is useless. You molested me for more than ten years. You deserve to die!”
“Liu Ruyan, do you have any conscience? Aren’t you afraid of retribution for slandering someone who raised you for more than ten years?”
“You raised me just to molest me. Also, you’d better figure out the debt issue quickly and admit how you transferred it to my parents! Anyway, I won’t recognize this debt!”
She angrily hung up the phone and then uploaded the recording of this call. Combined with the previous video, this battle of fate finally ignited. Online public opinion began to ferment, and it became popular all over the internet in a day.
Looking at the various curse words in the comment section, I sometimes even wondered which life I was in. After all the resistance I did in the early stage, in an instant, things seemed to have returned to the starting point. Was I doomed to die in this life too?
“Damn it, I’m so angry. This is a complete perverted father!”
“Call the police directly. People like this should be physically castrated and then shot!”
“A debt of 100 million? I’m curious what he does to owe so much money?”
“Liu Ruyan, come on. Be brave enough to fight against evil! The most important thing now is to protect yourself!”
“I didn’t expect there to be such a damned scumbag in the country. Why doesn’t he die instead of a good person!”
“Report the location. The more I look, the angrier I get. I’ll go and beat him to death to do justice for the heavens!”
Seeing so many radical people, I promptly called the police. Liu Ruyan was slandering and spreading rumors, and she must immediately delete the video and apologize. The police officer said that they just needed me to cooperate with the investigation, so they asked me to go to the police station. As soon as I entered, Liu Ruyan pointed her phone at me and started filming.
“Friends, this is him. He was brought to the police station by the police!”
“Liu Ruyan, don’t talk nonsense. I called the police and came here to cooperate with the evidence collection. Do you know that spreading rumors is illegal?”
“Wang Zihao, what rumor am I spreading? Give me back my innocence!”
Liu Ruyan threw away her phone and started to go on a rampage, scratching my arm. After being pulled apart, she roared hysterically.
“Wang Zihao, you’ve ruined my life. I’ll drag you down with me even if I die!”
“Calm down. Before the truth is investigated clearly, don’t speak casually!”
“Just now, you were clearly misleading the public. Wang Zihao came to the police station on his own initiative, not because we brought or arrested him!”
The police officer warned. Liu Ruyan looked at me viciously and shook off the people holding her.
“Justice is in the hearts of the people. Don’t think that just because he’s rich, you can protect him!”
“We won’t let any bad person go, nor will we wrong any good person. Before starting the investigation, delete that video and recording of yours.”
Liu Ruyan widened her eyes after hearing this. “Why should I delete it?”
“Before it’s clarified, what you’re doing violates Mr. Wang’s portrait rights and is illegal. Since the police have intervened in the investigation, we will give everyone the truth.”
“I don’t agree!”
Liu Ruyan was particularly radical. “Posting videos is my right, and what I post is all the truth. I have the support of a large number of netizens. I’m not afraid of him even if he’s rich!”
The police officer’s face turned cold. “You can choose not to delete it, but Mr. Wang also has the right to hold you accountable. If, after everything is investigated, it is confirmed that the information you released is maliciously spreading false information, slandering and造谣, then you will also bear corresponding criminal and civil liabilities.
“Ms. Liu, can you bear this consequence?”
Liu Ruyan was stunned for a moment, then loudly and firmly replied, “I can bear it!” She then signed a letter of commitment.
The case began to enter the investigation process. I looked at her indifferently, feeling no pity for her anymore. During this period, the online public opinion became more and more intense. Red paint was splashed on my door, and the windows were smashed. I even received a death threat letter. I was forced to move into a hotel. However, even the hotel staff stayed away from me, whispering about me and pointing at my back.
It didn’t end there. On the third day of the case investigation, I found that the store I had painstakingly managed for more than ten years was smashed. The place that had supported my income for more than ten years and helped me earn nearly ten million was in a mess. After the customers learned that I was the “male protagonist of the molestation incident,” they all quit the group, cursing me to the core before leaving.
I couldn’t just sit around and wait for death. Even if the police could eventually clear my name, Liu Ruyan’s attacks were unlikely to stop, and the radical keyboard warriors would probably not accept it either. I had to find a way to save myself.
Early the next morning, I traveled a hundred miles back to my hometown. I found the cadres of the village committee from more than ten years ago and asked them to issue a letter of certification. The certification was to prove that at that time, no one wanted Liu Ruyan because her parents owed a huge amount of debt and she was about to be sent to an orphanage. I adopted her out of kindness. The cadres were curious why I needed this at that time. But when I showed them the whole story and the video of Liu Ruyan accusing me, they all got angry.
“This child… How could this child be like this! If it weren’t for you adopting her, she might be begging somewhere now!”
“It’s really infuriating. We’re all from the same village. We all know what kind of person you are. How could this child be such a bad seed!”
“It seems those relatives were right not to want her. No one can stand raising such an ungrateful person!”
Getting their affirmation made me feel warm inside. They readily wrote the letter of certification for me and also cooperated with me to film a certification video. I originally planned to ask those relatives to explain as well, but thinking that they had avoided me more than ten years ago and definitely wouldn’t want to get involved now that this had happened, I gave up the idea.
That night I returned to the hotel, immediately registered an account, edited the content, and uploaded it. Due to the popularity of the topic, my video quickly attracted a large amount of traffic. But almost no one believed me. Instead, they located my account and all came in to curse me.
“You even found people to record a video to testify. Are you out of your mind? Can this be considered evidence?”
“I can also find some random passers – by. What does this prove?”
“Scumbag, go to hell. Bah! We won’t believe anything you say!”
This kind of response was within my expectation.紧接着 I posted the second video.
“It’s true that I adopted Liu Ruyan, but it’s definitely not what she said, that I adopted her because of my pedophile tendency. I was an old acquaintance of her father. And after the accident, no one was willing to take in Liu Ruyan. I really felt sorry for her, so I adopted her.
“As for the identities of these people, those who have the means can check for themselves. They were the village cadres of the village committee at that time and were in charge of mediating this matter.
“Everyone in the village knows about the money her parents owed. Don’t just rely on your keyboard to condemn people to death. Is human – blood – steamed – bun really that delicious?”
After posting this, there were still people cursing me, but much fewer. The next day, a conspicuous comment appeared in the comment section.
“I’ve checked. Liu Ruyan’s parents did owe money, but no one knows the exact amount. An astronomical figure of 100 million? That’s nonsense!”
Someone replied below.
“Have you checked the adoption thing? Is it the same as what he said, that no one adopted her so he did?”
“I’ve checked. That’s also true. But does it have anything to do with pedophilia? Can’t it be that he became a pedophile after adopting her?”
“What the above said makes sense. Even if those things are true, what can it change? It can’t change the fact that he’s a scumbag and a pervert!”
“Wang Zihao, shut up. Just wait until the truth comes out and then you’ll be physically castrated! You beast!”
Looking at these comments, I could only smile bitterly. This was the so – called power of public opinion. Once targeted, there was no room to struggle.
Liu Ruyan wasn’t idle either. In order to completely defeat me, she updated what she called “evidence.” She took out several pairs of sexy underwear, saying that I bought them for her. She also said that if she didn’t obey me, she would lose her living expenses and have to beg on the street. To make her words more believable, she even showed the purchase records. This instantly pushed me, who was already in a difficult situation, into an even deeper abyss. Those radical netizens called to curse me and bombarded me. People even came to smash the door of my hotel room in the middle of the night. My normal life had been severely affected.
But I knew I couldn’t give up the fight. The more I gave up, the more radical Liu Ruyan would become. To fight back against her, I started editing the third video. I put up a lot of chat screenshots, including those sent by her teacher to me and those from Liu Ruyan to me. Then I added captions.
“Since going to college, Liu Ruyan has been e addicted to showing off wealth and high – consumption, and has been focused on dating. It’s not that dating is bad, but she fails every course! She won’t even be able to get a degree in the future!
“The eight screenshots above are from the chat when her teacher asked me to go for a talk.
“The more than thirty screenshots below are from my daily chats with Liu Ruyan.
“We rarely talk. Every time she contacts me, it’s just to ask for money, nothing else.
“Look carefully at the words in the screenshots. How many times has she mentioned that she’s not my biological daughter and told me not to bother with her.
“I want to ask you, did she ever mention being molested? If she had been molested and oppressed since childhood, would she dare to talk to me like this?
“Aren’t you all so powerful? Investigate what I said. Also, check into what she calls “sexy products” and ask the store if I really bought them!
“Finally, I warn those who try to harm me. I’ve made it very clear that I’m innocent and she’s slandering me! If you keep acting recklessly, I’ll call the police. Stop bullying honest people, okay?”
The third video had a huge impact. By now, millions of people were paying attention to this matter. As soon as the chat records came out, someone in the comment section said they were a classmate of Liu Ruyan and confirmed that the avatars in the first few screenshots were indeed those of their teachers. And he also confirmed that Liu Ruyan’s grades were extremely poor and she had been criticized countless times. As for showing off wealth and dating, he only replied, “Hah, this is hard to evaluate. It’s not something that can be explained in one or two sentences. Anyway, I wouldn’t believe a single word Liu Ruyan says.” This comment received thousands of likes, and there were all kinds of follow – up questions below, wanting to know the truth and what kind of person Liu Ruyan really was. Of course, a large number of people also said he was a paid troll I hired to whitewash myself.
After this comment became popular, Liu Ruyan quickly clarified. She admitted that her academic performance was indeed poor, and then asked netizens, “After being molested for more than ten years, how could anyone focus on studying?” In addition, she refuted the chat records, saying that they were all P – ed by me and that it never happened. She said that every time I was in a good mood, I would give her money after “playing” with her, claiming that I liked this kind of “paid service” plot. She also said that I had a promiscuous private life and often went out to fool around with women, asking netizens not to believe me.
Liu Ruyan inherently had the advantage of being the “victim.” Far more people believed her than me. As a result, after this counter – attack video appeared, the person who stood up to tell the truth was cyber – bullied, being severely scolded and having his address and phone number exposed. I felt really guilty, so I sent him a private message to apologize. Unexpectedly, he sent me more than a dozen videos in a row, all of which showed Liu Ruyan dancing in a bar, drinking and being intimate with strange men. I sent several question marks. This classmate replied that he was Liu Ruyan’s ex – boyfriend, who had been dumped by her. He also said that Liu Ruyan was two – timing, and he wasn’t even considered a backup lover. These videos were evidence of her misbehavior that he had caught, and he asked me to make them public. Finally, he told me that he was going to take a temporary leave of absence from school because he couldn’t bear the cyber – bullying and didn’t want to get involved anymore. This was the last thing he could do to help me.
At the same time, because the school was exposed, the school where Liu Ruyan studied was also in a difficult situation. After I posted these videos, the school’s official Weibo also issued a statement, confirming that what I said was true. Of course, the school only announced her academic performance and the chat screenshots and didn’t comment on other things. But the situation started to show signs of reversal. Some people began to doubt Liu Ruyan’s character. Everyone was discussing what kind of girl would often hang out in bars and flirt with different men. Although she smoked, drank, got perms, went to bars, and dated different boys, was she really a good girl?
Up to this point, I finally got a moment to catch my breath. But I knew it wasn’t over. If I didn’t continue to follow up and push her to the limit, I was afraid that Liu Ruyan would quickly turn things around and distort the truth again.
Sure enough, Liu Ruyan was still stubbornly fighting. She said that she had been abused and had developed psychological problems, which was why she had been degenerate during that period. That’s why she went to bars and did those things. The molestation must be true, and the debt issue must be a trap I set for her. Because the video popularity on my side had surpassed hers, in a hurry, she directly started a live – stream. In the live – stream room, she was crying and accusing the heavens of injustice. Then, in order to be believed and pitied, she even started a suicide live – stream. She ran to a busy suspension bridge, climbed onto the railing, and prepared to jump into the river. She also carried out a self – proof before “death.”
“I said those were all false. He just wants to force me to death so that those dirty things can be covered up!
“Which girl would joke about her own innocence? Which girl can accept a debt of nearly 100 million!
“I admit he won. I don’t want to live anymore. I’ll use my death to prove my innocence!
“I believe the truth will surface one day, and he will pay for my death!”
Liu Ruyan’s extreme behavior made those who were just about to be neutral side with her again.
“She’s going to prove her innocence by dying. How could she be slandering you?”
“I almost believed your words. You scumbag, you beast!”
“It should be you who jumps into the river!”
Liu Ruyan didn’t die. She was rescued before she could jump. She won her bet. More than a hundred thousand comments flooded into my video, launching a fierce verbal attack and cyber – bullying against me. Someone offered 500,000 yuan to break my legs. Someone offered 1 million yuan to make me a useless person. I also tried to collect more evidence to refute, but it didn’t make any impact.
That night, an angry netizen stole the cleaning aunt’s room card and swiped open my hotel room door. He was holding a bright dagger, wanting to kill me. If it weren’t for the anti – theft chain and the additional deadbolt I installed for safety, I would have died that night. After I called the police, the person was arrested. Not long after he was taken away, the police station called me again. I was still in shock and weakly asked what was wrong. The police officer told me that the investigation result had come out and asked me to go to the police station immediately. As soon as I heard this, I instantly perked up.
“Okay, I’ll come right away.”
Liu Ruyan was also called there. Regarding the truth, compared to my eagerness, she didn’t seem that excited. She even looked a bit uneasy. The police officer called us together.
“The investigation is clear. There is no substantial evidence that Mr. Wang Zihao molested you.
So now, please immediately delete all the slanderous short videos and stop the illegal infringement.”
Liu Ruyan seemed to have been prepared and was not at all surprised by this result. She suddenly stood up. “I don’t accept it. He clearly molested me. Why do you say there’s no evidence!”
“Well, then show us the evidence. It can be a video, a recording, or a witness.”
“I… I don’t have those. Anyway, he molested me!”
The police officer frowned. “You’re an adult. Don’t you know that everything needs evidence? You’ve pushed him to this point with just your words. Do you know that he was almost killed today!”
“He deserves it. He should die!”
“That’s enough. This is the result. Please delete all the videos immediately.
If you’re not satisfied with the result, you can appeal.”
“I won’t delete the videos. I’ll appeal!”
“No, no matter how you plan to appeal later, you must delete the videos! And whether Mr. Wang sues you or not is also his legal right!”
“I won’t! The phone is mine, and posting videos is my right. I won’t delete them!”
But could she really not delete them as she wished? I called the police on the spot. Spreading rumors, slandering, and spreading false information had already constituted a criminal offense. Liu Ruyan was arrested on the spot. She tried to struggle and shout.
The police looked at her with contempt.
“Liu Ruyan, when we asked you to delete the video and wait for the investigation, you didn’t. Today, Mr. Wang Zihao almost faced danger because of the false information you spread. Do you think the law is a joke?!”
With a snap, a pair of silver handcuffs were put on her.
“How dare you detain me! How dare you!!”
Just for causing trouble at the police station and trying to scratch the police, she was worthy of being detained for 15 days. Whether to sue her or not was entirely up to me. Subsequently, the videos were forcibly deleted. At the same time, the police issued a notice on their official Weibo, stating that it had been ascertain that I had no molestation crime. But when the radical netizens saw the notice, they were full of disbelief. They even @ the superior police station, demanding their intervention in the investigation. This was the influence of the suicide live – stream. Fortunately, some relatively rational people finally believed the judicial notice, and the cyber – bullying against me weakened a lot. This was also the reason why I didn’t dare to file a lawsuit immediately. The online world ultimately sympathized with the weak. I couldn’t produce substantial evidence to prove that I didn’t molest her. Even if I pursued her for slandering and spreading rumors, it would be a long – drawn – out process. Before the cyber – bullying from the keyboard warriors stopped, the police suggested that I wait for a while to prevent radical elements from harming me. After thinking for a long time, I agreed.
As the days passed, the buzz of this incident gradually decreased. I finally got a bit more breathing room and moved back to the villa. But unexpectedly, when the 15 – day detention period expired, Liu Ruyan made a comeback. She frantically complained that she was wronged, saying that she would appeal and even sue the police station. At that moment, I suddenly realized that I might still face a life – and – death crisis. With her personality, she would definitely not let me go.
After the buzz was stirred up again, I stared at Liu Ruyan’s live – stream room every day. Three days later, she started the live – stream, saying that she was coming back to get her luggage and leave this tragic place completely. What was supposed to come, finally came. I was not going to run away. This matter had to come to an end.
Dinglingling – –
The doorbell rang. Liu Ruyan was here. I could even clearly hear what she said outside, “Sorry, everyone. I’m just coming back to get my luggage…” Then she turned off the live – stream. The previous cautious knocking on the door turned into violent pounding. I took a deep breath and opened the door. She stared at me viciously.
“You got me detained for 15 days. Do you think you’re great? Do you think you’ve won!
“I even called you dad before. You didn’t appreciate it and insisted on driving me away. Is this the ending you want!”
I didn’t respond, just said, “You’ll regret it.”
“I regret? Hehe. The one who should regret is you!
No, I guess you already regret it now, right? Regret that you shouldn’t have driven me away? Shouldn’t have frozen my credit card!”
I looked at her expressionlessly. “I regret adopting you. I shouldn’t have adopted an ungrateful person.”
“Hehe? Did I ask you to adopt me? This is just your fate!
You’re not my real dad. What right do you have to管我!”
After saying that, Liu Ruyan glanced at my pocket and sneered disdainfully.
“What? Are you recording? It doesn’t matter… Even if you record, you can’t post it!
As long as I kill you, the family property will be mine, and the villa will be mine too!”
Her face suddenly became ferocious, and she took out a knife from her pocket and stabbed at me.
“And you were trying to rape me. I’m just acting in self – defense!”
The stab came so fast that even though I was prepared, I couldn’t dodge it. The dagger stabbed firmly into my lower abdomen. But soon, Liu Ruyan’s expression changed. “What’s going on?”
I grabbed her hand and locked it in reverse. The dagger fell to the ground.
“Liu Ruyan, in these more than ten years, I might as well have raised a dog.
Hello, police officer. Someone broke into the house to kill me and has been controlled by me.”
The police arrived quickly and handcuffed Liu Ruyan. Then they asked me if I was okay and if I needed to go to the hospital. I shook my head.
“I’m wearing a stab – proof vest. I’m fine.”
“Police officer, he’s lying. I came back to get my luggage. He was trying to rape me, and I was forced to resist!!”
Liu Ruyan said this with great confidence. Until I took out a mobile phone hidden in the corner.
“Stop acting. Your actions just now have been broadcast live by me.”
I registered a new account and quietly filmed everything that happened. She thought I would record audio or video. She thought that after killing me, she would have enough time to destroy the evidence? Unfortunately, she was wrong. It was she who taught me, an old – fashioned person, what live – streaming was. Using her own tactics against herself.
Looking at the netizens in the comment section fiercely criticizing her, Liu Ruyan was stunned, and then shouted,
“Impossible. Listen to me. I was set up!”
But who would believe her anymore? Liu Ruyan was taken away. I let out a long sigh and sat down on the sofa. Looking at the various words of apology in the comment section, I sneered and directly turned off the live – stream. There was nothing to say to these people who believed everything they heard. There was no need to comment either. I only knew that this matter was over. I could live the rest of my life in peace.
Half a year later, the verdict came down. Liu Ruyan was convicted of attempted murder, picking quarrels and provoking trouble, slandering, and illegally spreading false rumors. Her prison term was increased to more than ten years. When she gets out?
Those creditors of the 100 – million debt are still waiting to get their money back, even if it means extreme measures. To avoid being implicated, after the storm completely subsided, I found a professional manager to handle my business. I sold the villa and moved to another city, planning to start a new life. Anyway, the money in my account is enough for me to live a comfortable life until I die.
