Chapter 201: Confusing Right and Wrong

Lu Yichen quietly said to Luo Qiao, “I saw the village secretary’s daughter nailing a piece of metal into the cow’s buttocks. This matter can’t be settled easily.”

He glanced at the women’s leader coming down the slope and whispered to Luo Qiao, “You go back to the village first and let them carry you back, understand?”

Thinking of what Lu Yichen said, Luo Qiao’s face immediately turned ugly and she said, “Got it. Don’t waste time talking to them, just report it to the police directly.”

Lu Yichen replied, “Understood.”

The women’s leader and others had already come down from the front. Seeing Luo Qiao sitting on the ground with her sleeves and pants covered in blood, she hurriedly asked, “Luo Qiao, how do you feel?”

Lu Yichen answered for her, “She has a lot of scratches and is frightened. As for whether she has internal injuries can only be determined after a checkup in the city.”

The women’s leader quickly squatted down and said, “Come on, auntie will carry you back. Let’s first let Doctor Gao take a look.”

Luo Qiao felt a bit embarrassed and said, “Let me rest for a bit. You can help me to the top and push me on the cart. The road back to the village is long, and you’ll get tired.”

Zhang Qiaoyan didn’t expect the cow to fall and was also scared. This was collective property, and if it died, her family would have to pay for it.

Suddenly thinking of something, she ran over to Luo Qiao and said, “Luo Qiao, why did you run? Look, you scared the cow, and it fell off the cliff. If anything happens to the cow, you’ll have to pay for it.”

Luo Qiao sneered and then shouted, “Don’t worry, I’ll take full responsibility. The police will determine who’s right and wrong.”

Hearing that Luo Qiao intended to report to the police, Zhang Qiaoyan panicked and said, “The police are very busy every day. You think you can alarm them over any little thing? That’s a waste of resources.”

Luo Qiao gave her a mocking look, “Nice acting. Your mental fortitude is really something. Having a high school education does make a difference. This is attempted murder, and the police can’t ignore it.”

The village secretary and the captain, who had come after hearing what happened, arrived just in time to hear these words. The captain asked, “What do you mean, attempted murder?”

The women’s leader told what had just happened, including everyone seeing Zhang Qiaoyan nailing something into the cow’s buttocks. They saw her nailing something, but they didn’t know exactly what is it.

At this time, this made Zhang Qiaoyan panic too. “Don’t talk nonsense. My father is the secretary.”

Luo Qiao burst into laughter, reminded of the later phrase, ‘^[1]“My dad is Li Gang” is a phrase that became widely known in China after an incident in 2010. It refers to a case in which a young man named Li Qiming, who was involved in a hit-and-run … Continue readingMy dad is Li Gang.’

The captain said to the women’s leader, “Let’s send Comrade Luo Qiao back to the village first. We can discuss everything else there.”

The women’s leader said, “Alright, you all should go check on the cow. Falling from such a height, it might…” She didn’t finish her sentence and sighed.

The captain and the others were about to leave when Luo Qiao called out, “Secretary, captain, I feel really uncomfortable all over and want to go to the city for a checkup. I’m afraid I might have internal injuries. Is that alright?”

The captain saw the scratches on Luo Qiao’s neck and the blood on her sleeves and pants, and then looked at the secretary. After all, this was caused by his daughter.

The secretary said, “Go ahead, get checked to be safe.”

Luo Qiao asked, “Thank you, Secretary. Who will cover the cost of this checkup?”

Luo Qiao no longer cared about saving face for the secretary. His daughter had attempted murder, why should she consider his feelings?

The secretary now felt like he wanted to smack his own daughter. He knew Luo Qiao was doing this on purpose. The injuries were real, but there was no need to go to the city for a checkup.

But could he say no now?
