Good news! My sister Lin finally stopped being abstract today!

Chapter 116 Coming

The crowd was buzzing with discussion, but Lin Zhihao remained unmoved. She sat back down and began leisurely drinking tea, occasionally instructing Di Meng to send out a photo. Almost forty minutes had passed since the press conference, but Lin Zhihao still hadn't seen the person she was waiting for.

"Aren't you coming out yet?"

Lin Zhihao's smile didn't reach her eyes as she watched Mu's parents arguing and making a scene below the stage. Many enthusiastic people brought by Mu's parents were also cursing Lin Zhihao on stage.

Lin Zhihao was not affected by this. She was glad that someone was willing to speak up for the girl. Although the kindness was given to the wrong person, Lin Zhihao was still happy for the courageous behavior of the crowd.

The longer the time went on, the more explicit the videos and photos that were released became, from simply strolling around town to strolling arm in arm, and then to strolling hand in hand.

It wasn't until the pieces were interlocked in a cross shape that any movement began to come from the front door.

Lin Zhihao, behind the teacup, smiled and said, "Oh, the main character has arrived."

"Enough!!" The boy pushed the girl in the wheelchair through the front door, his face contorted with anger. "Lou Su, do you really think the law can't do anything to you?!"

The boy's voice wasn't loud, but he was wearing a small megaphone, so his voice could be heard throughout the entire event area.

"Who is he?"

People in the group of reporters started whispering among themselves.

"Tsk, the one in the wheelchair is Mu Xinyi, the person involved in this incident, and the one behind her looks like her younger brother, Mu Yaozu."

"Oh oh oh."

"Stop chatting, hurry up and take the picture. Do you still want to get the latest trending topics?"

The reporter took a flurry of photos of the siblings as they entered.

Mu Xinyi, in her wheelchair, lowered her head, coughed lightly, and vaguely shielded the camera flash with her arm.

Mu Yaozu tenderly protected Mu Xinyi, pulled the blanket over her knees, and shielded her from the camera flash with one hand.

[Sobbing, her brother really cares about her. Knowing she's not well, he shields her from the light and protects her the whole time.]

[I'm so envious! My husband only knows how to compete with me for the imperial court's grain supplies!! (Angry)]

[Sobbing, how angry must her brother be, knowing what his sister went through, when he found out what happened to her? Yet he couldn't do anything for her.]

My heart aches for Mu Xinyi.

[Daily Question: When will Lou Su die? (Purely malicious)]

But this name? Hmm? Something feels off, but I can't quite put my finger on why.

[Go Mu Xinyi! Go Mu family!!!]

The live stream was constantly scrolling through the comments. Every time the camera focused on Lin Zhihao on stage, the comments were filled with insults. Only a few people spoke up for Lin Zhihao, but it didn't cause a ripple.

"I'm sure you've already received the lawyer's letter, so why don't you apologize!" Mu Yaozu looked at Lin Zhihao on the stage, his eyes bloodshot, like a true man striving to seek justice for his family who had been bullied.

"Oh dear, my daughter, waaaaah, my poor daughter, didn't I tell you to stay home? Why did you come here?"

Mu's mother squatted down beside Mu Xinyi, tears streaming down her face, holding Mu Xinyi's hand and stroking it repeatedly.

Mu's father followed behind, saying nothing, but tears streamed down his face.

Many journalists who hadn't yet lost their moral compass were moved by the scene, their eyes involuntarily reddening, "That damned Lou... sob sob."

Someone nearby quickly covered her mouth and said, "Are you crazy? This is a live broadcast. We might get filmed. Don't talk nonsense."

"Mmm-hmm-hmm-hmm." The reporter, who was about to scold Lin Zhihao, realized what was happening and nodded repeatedly.

"My sister wasn't originally planning to come because she didn't want to see this man. It would be a second blow to her. But this man just happened to distort the truth and spread rumors about my sister in front of the audience, so she came."

“Justice resides in the hearts of the people,” she said. She believes the law will give her an answer. She cannot back down. Behind her are millions of girls. If she backs down, she is afraid that other girls will suffer the same thing she has suffered. Waaaaah.

After Mu Yaozu finished speaking, he wiped away his tears and stared intently at Lin Zhihao on the stage, his murderous gaze seemingly wanting to devour her.

[Waaaaah.]

[After hearing this, I'm so touched! Go Mu Xinyi!]

[I was still skeptical at first, but after hearing these words, I feel like I'm a terrible person. She's so brave, and I, as a girl myself, doubted her. Waaah!]

[I'm casting my vote for Mu Xinyi! She's hot! Hot! Hot!]

[Mu Xinyi, keep going! We've got your back!!!]

Mu Yaozu's words made not only the women present, but also the women in the live broadcast room begin to look at Mu Xinyi in a different light.

Mu Xinyi, in her wheelchair, gently took the microphone from Mu Yaozu's collar and placed it lightly to her lips.

He kept taking deep breaths, mentally preparing himself, and slowly, slowly, little by little, raised his head until he looked directly at Lin Zhihao on the stage.

“I…I am Mu…Mu Xinyi.”

The girl's voice trembled, her fingers shook incessantly, and she stammered as she introduced herself.

But the scene was strangely quiet, and some people were silently encouraging the girl.

“I always thought that as long as I stopped thinking about it, I wouldn’t be in pain. As long as the person who hurt me took responsibility for their mistakes, I was willing to give them a chance to correct them.”

"But, but you've disappointed me so much. All I wanted, all I wanted was a result, but why, why did you hurt me again? Why did you lie in front of so many people? Why did you spread rumors about me? Tell me, why! Why!!"

"Waaaaaahhhhhh." The girl's tears kept flowing down her face, covering her entire face. The tears on her face did not make her look embarrassed, but instead made her look weak and pitiful, which made people feel sorry for her.

Those present, hearing the crying and the heart-wrenching questions, secretly cursed inwardly, but due to their professionalism, they maintained a composed, detached expression on their faces.

The cameras began to focus on Lin Zhihao on the stage, all eagerly awaiting her response.

Lin Zhihao stared intently at the face she was seeing in person for the first time, their gazes meeting for a second, two seconds, three seconds...

"Ha, hahahahahahahahahahahaha, ahahahahaha."

Watching Lou Su laughing wildly on stage, the reporters practically wore out their camera shutters, with one click after another echoing through the air.

"Oh? You think I should apologize to you? I should admit my mistake? All of what I posted was just a rumor?" Lin Zhihao stared at Mu Xinyi, her eyes growing colder, making one feel as if they were standing in a bottomless ice cave.

Mu Xinyi was startled, but she still gritted her teeth and stared at Lin Zhihao, "Yes!"
