210 210 Getting The Family Involved
The matter was getting more and more intense. It was unknown if someone was adding fuel to the fire or if these netizens really had nothing to do, but they actually dug out Tan Rou’s family and Tan Rou’s past.
An article said that Tan Rou used to be a hooligan and spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in the casino every night. Smoking, drinking, and fighting were something common for her.
Tan Rou didn’t care about this. What she really cared about was that her family had been exposed.
The uncensored photos were posted on the internet. Her parents, brother, and she were all in the photos. The clearest was the photo of them entering and leaving the police station. They even took a photo of the entrance of the police station, afraid that others would not know it was a police station. The accompanying text of the pictures was also unsightly, with various comments.
“Xiao Rou, are you okay?” When Li Li saw those photos, she felt the world around her had turned dark. How could they be so vicious? They just randomly guessed about a girl and kept slandering her. They’ve used extremely insulting words to insult her as if she had already become an unpardonable evil person.
When Tan Rou saw the photo, she smiled at Li Li. “It’s fine, but some people should be punished.”
Li Li thought that Tan Rou was upset. She quickly comforted her. “I’ll ask my dad to help you find the person behind this. You don’t have to worry about this.”
“Thank you, but I’ll handle this myself.”
“Can you handle it?” Li Li was worried.
Tan Rou looked at the photo and smiled, “We shall wait and see.”
She called Zhuang Liu and said jokingly, “Third master, I have some interesting news here. Would you like to hear about it?”
Zhuang Liu was confused after receiving the call. “What happened?”
“We’re on the hot news together, but your face has been deliberately blurred out, probably to avoid getting into trouble.”
Zhuang Liu’s face turned pale. “When did this happen? ”
“Two days ago. It’s still on the internet. If you’re interested, I’ll send it to you.”
“Send it to me.” Zhuang Liu frowned; he was feeling pissed.
Tan Rou sent the link Li Li had sent to her to Zhuang Liu. Zhuang Liu only took a glance at it, and he was furious.
“Preposterous! Who did this?” Zhuang Liu said angrily.
“Third master!” Xiao No came running over with a tablet. “Third master, something bad has happened. Miss Tan…”
Zhuang Liu’s eyes widened, and he said in an unfriendly tone, “I know about it already! What were you doing?” he reprimanded. “Why did you only tell me about such an important matter now?”
“I’m sorry, the third master, it’s my mistake!” Xiao No said as he cowered at the side.
Now that things had come to this, the most important thing was to solve this matter and stop it from worsening.
“I’ll immediately get my men to withdraw it.” Zhuang Liu said.
“Let’s wait a little longer,” Tan Rou told him not to be anxious. “There isn’t enough evidence yet. The more people spread rumors. The more people can be punished when we are clear about the issue. Moreover, the more indulgent they are, the more likely the mastermind will let his guard down and expose himself.”
Zhuang Liu understood what she meant. “Are you trying to cast a long line to catch the big fish?”
“Of course. Otherwise, I’ll be sorry for having it online for so long.”
Zhuang Liu hung up the phone. He thought awhile and said, “Secretly help her collect the evidence.”
“Are we not going to remove this news from the internet? This will affect Miss Tan Rou’s reputation.” Xiao Mo asked out of curiosity.
Zhuang Liu waved his hand. “No need for that; just do as Xiao Rou says.”
Xiao Mo quickly got to work.
When Tan Rou got home after school, she found that everyone in the family was waiting for her in the living room. She guessed that they had found out about what had happened online.
Mrs. Tao said, “Rou’er, I know you’ve been wronged. Don’t worry. We’ll definitely find a way to help you.”
“No matter who’s behind this, I won’t let them off easily,” Father Tao said in a low voice.
After hearing her parents’ words, Tan Rou felt warm in her heart. No one was better than her own family. Even if everyone else did not believe her, her family still chose to stand by her side.
“Mom, dad, don’t worry. I already have friends who are already helping us.” Tan Rou snickered in her heart, ‘you guys better hide your identities well and not have them exposed.’
“Is your friend reliable?” Mr. Tao asked.
Tan Rou guaranteed, “Yes.”
“Good, that’s good.” Even so, Mr. And Mrs. Tao were still worried. They had to help Xiao Rou privately.
Tao Zheng patted his sister’s shoulder. “Don’t worry. We’ll always be by your side.”
The tsundere Tao Qi also made his stand clear. “They’re the ones talking nonsense. You’re not that kind of person.”
Tan Rou felt touched in her heart. “Thank you.”
“We’re a family; there’s no need to thank us.”
Tan Rou nodded. “Yes, we are a family.”
