Chapter 4: Moving Bricks to Provide for You (I)
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The policeman looked in the direction she was pointing at and fell silent.
He could not hold back his sigh. How could such a good girl be mentally challenged?
Look! She was so mentally confused that she called a random person ‘dad’. It was a sin!
He patted the back of Fu Ting’s hand sympathetically. “Little girl, you can be at ease,” he assured her with a gentle expression. “I will help you…”
The policeman trailed off and looked at Fu Pei. “…and your father! I’ll uphold justice!”
Fu Pei’s mouth twitched sharply. He turned his face away from the nonsense he was seeing.
“Officer, I’m wrongly accused!” The rival gang leader suddenly cried out, and his brothers wailed bitterly with him. Why were they unfairly labeled when they were the ones beaten to a pulp?
How could someone act so wilfully just because the ‘victim’ looked pretty?
“Who’re you f*cking talking to? You’re all so young yet so morally corrupt. A group of big men got together to bully a little girl… It’s a decay of morale and distortion of humanity!” The policeman angrily reprimanded them. The kind face he had when he spoke to Fu Ting had vanished.
The rival gang leader felt so wronged. “Officer, you should do a careful inspection! We didn’t pick a fight, this girl started it. We’re hurt and can’t even stand up because of the pain!”
Although they always cursed, they were just a group of students who still feared the police. After all, nothing good would come out of entering a juvenile prison.
“I didn’t hit them!” Fu Ting blinked her innocent big eyes and asserted, “They’re not hurt at all, they’re only pretending. Officer, you should check on them!”
The gang leader was happy to hear this and spoke hurriedly, “Yes, yes, yes! You have to check on us to prove our innocence!”
The police immediately signaled to his teammates. The other officers moved forward and examined the rival gang members. Once they completed their inspection, they replied, “They’re all good.”
The rival gang members were stupefied.
Realization dawned on them that the girl was a skillful fighter, and she had only hit specific parts of their bodies.
Her punches made them terribly hurt, but the wounds were not visible. Even if they went to the hospital, nothing could be diagnosed!
“Bravo, boys,” the policeman bitterly mocked. “You’re all big guys who bullied a little girl, yet you dare twist the truth and accuse her? Is this appropriate?!” he scorned the rival gang members. “Just own it up if you did something wrong. Why are you pushing the blame to the victim? You guys are all strong and sturdy, but the little girl has only skinny arms and legs. How can she beat you?”
‘We won’t be the scapegoats!’ the rival gang members thought in unison.
On the other hand, Fu Pei and his followers thought, ‘If we didn’t see the whole process, we would’ve believed it!’
“Officer, look! My hands are bruised…” Fu Ting seized the opportunity to complain. “It hurts!”
The gang leader and his men were appalled.
‘Bullcrap! Those bruises are evidence that you’ve beaten us!’
‘What a clever and shameless person!’
The policeman’s hands shook with anger, and his face contorted with disappointment. “You guys are idiots! Scumbags like you are the reason why our society is messed up. Take them all away.”
The policeman then turned to Fu Ting and his expression was gentle as he looked at her. “Little girl, rest assured. I will definitely teach them a lesson on your behalf!”
Before they left, the policeman barked at the rival gang members, “Stand properly, all of you. Apologize to the little girl!”
The rival gang members were staggered. They looked like they had given up and apologized dispiritedly, “Forgive us. We’ve wronged you.”
They were beaten up and, in a twist of fate, had to apologize to the person who beat them!
What could be more damned than this?
…
After recording their confession in the police station, Xie Tiao took the lead to speak to Fu Ting. “You’re so awesome, Master Ting,” he praised her. “You saved us! Please let me express my gratitude!”
Fu Ting’s eyes and eyebrows were curved upward as though smiling, and a lovely little dimple appeared on her face. “You’re welcome. You’re my dad’s friend, so we’re like a family. You don’t have to say thank you to your family.”
‘???’ Fu Pei was utterly confused.
Seemed like her cleverness and sharpness vanished.
He dusted off his shirt and turned away coldly but he noticed someone was tailing after him.
“Why are you following me?” Fu Pei stopped walking and squinted. His anger was palpable in his gaze, and that same anger could deter people within a thousand miles.
Father was so ferocious.
With just one look, Fu Ting felt a little too afraid to speak.
Something then happened to Fu Pei. Fu Ting’s warm and unsullied gaze made his heart skip a beat.
He coughed in discomfort and tried to ignore the inexplicable emotion in his heart. Eyes filled with arrogance, he spoke, “Thanks for just now.”
He continued to walk after that, but the little girl continued to follow.
Fu Pei frowned, stopped again, and snickered slightly with his chin up. His lazy voice was full of gangster aura. “Little sister, I’ve thanked you already. What else do you want? Do you want money? Let me be clear, I don’t have money.”
The young man shoved one hand into his pocket, and his tall and lean body turned sideways and faced the sunset. It made his beautiful side profile look extremely charming.
Fu Ting lifted her head and looked at him. “I have nowhere to go, Dad. I’m your daughter. You have to take care of me!”
