“I just called Yueyue, she didn’t answer. I was worried about both of you, so I came to check. It’s great that you’re okay.” Ma Ying breathed a sigh of relief over the phone.
Wen Miao glanced at Wen Long’s gloomy expression, casually said a few words, and hung up the phone. She held her brother’s hand and started acting coquettishly. “Brother, let’s not report this to the police. I believe Shu’er will take care of the Shen family for me in the end!”
Wen Long couldn’t resist his sister’s plea, sighed, and said, “Is Yueyue also involved in this matter? Let’s go check on her.”
This time, Wen Miao didn’t refuse.
She was also concerned about what Ma Ying mentioned about Zhang Yue not answering the phone.
However, Zhang Yue usually didn’t like to check her phone, so maybe she was just busy with homework this time?
At this moment, Wen Miao obviously hadn’t realized the severity of the situation.
Together with Wen Long, they arrived at Zhang’s house, and inside, they heard Zhang’s mother crying heartbreakingly.
“It sounds like Auntie and Uncle are quarreling again. Should we not go in?” Wen Miao timidly suggested to her brother.
Wen Long thought of Zhang Yue’s family situation, frowned imperceptibly, and said, “Let’s listen for a while and make sure Zhang Yue is really okay before leaving.”
“That’s fine.” Helpless, Wen Miao could only drag her brother to a corner to eavesdrop. Her heart pounded loudly; it was her first time engaging in such eavesdropping behavior.
She felt like she was peeping into someone else’s life, which seemed somewhat unethical.
Feeling uneasy and wanting to leave immediately, when suddenly, besides the sound of crying, another person’s speaking voice was heard inside the room.
“Crying, crying, all you know is to cry!” Zhang Tan, feeling annoyed, wished he could slap his wife’s face. But thinking about their daughter still trembling in her mother’s arms, he managed to hold back his anger and said, “Let’s just forget about this matter! You must not talk about it, or else our daughter’s future will be ruined!”
“Is it related to Yueyue?” Wen Miao, upon hearing this from outside, immediately felt alarmed.
Wen Long also sensed something suspicious, covered her mouth, and whispered, “Don’t make a sound, let’s listen a bit more.”
“Okay.” Wen Miao obediently nodded this time.
Inside, Zhang Yue’s mother, Cao Hui, spoke with a choked voice, “We can’t just let it go! Our daughter is in such big trouble now, and you, as her father, are actually starting to act like a turtle! Have you ever seen a father like you?”
“She’s a girl! If this matter spreads, how will she get married in the future? Who would want her?” Zhang Tan angrily kicked over a chair, coldly said, “I said not to report to the police, and 1 warn you, 1 can’t afford to lose face like this!”
“Your daughter was bullied, and now you’re concerned about losing face?! But when you were drinking every day, neglecting her, why didn’t you find it embarrassing?” Cao Hui couldn’t help complaining, “If it weren’t for your insistence on drinking late at night and even sending her to buy it, would our daughter have encountered such a thing?”
“You can blame me for this? Hey, what’s wrong with me drinking? Did I ask those hooligans to bully Yueyue?” Zhang Tan retorted unwillingly, “I think it’s her own fault! Going out at night knowing it’s unsafe, wearing so little, not behaving like a student!”
“Our daughter is bullied, and you blame her for not wearing enough clothes?” Cao Hui couldn’t stand him anymore. After enduring him for half her life, she finally couldn’t help but scold him, “Since you think our daughter has embarrassed you, then let’s get a divorce! I’ll take our daughter to the police myself. Whether we live or die in the future, you don’t need to worry about it!”
“Oh, you’ve really become capable!” Zhang Tan was about to lay hands on Cao Hui.
“Brother! Let’s go in!” Outside the window, Wen Miao and Wen Long had already heard the ins and outs of the situation clearly.
Now, both of them looked solemn.
“Let’s go.” Wen Long pulled his sister behind him. In the moment of a woman’s scream inside, he kicked the door open. “Stop!”
“Miaomiao, Long Ge?” On the sofa, Zhang Yue was wrapped in a blanket, looking over with red eyes.
Cao Hui still maintained a turned head posture, her cheeks swollen and red, obviously having taken a beating from Zhang Tan just now.
Wen Long’s eyes were red. He quickly stood in front of Cao Hui and said to Zhang Tan, “Uncle Zhang, let’s talk calmly. Don’t resort to violence.”
“Why are you here? How dare you kick the door open? Did you hear what we said just now?” Zhang Tan pointed at Wen Long’s nose, angrily asked.
Wen Long’s gaze lightly swept towards Zhang Yue on the sofa, nodded slightly, and said, “We heard everything.”
It might be his imagination, but when he finished speaking, he vaguely saw Zhang Yue on the sofa shivering uncontrollably.
Wen Miao quickly ran to Zhang Yue’s side, firmly embracing her, “Yueyue, don’t be afraid. Tell me, what happened?”
Zhang Yue’s eyelashes trembled lightly, her face still covered with tear stains.
Under her father’s stern gaze, she shook her head gently. “I’m fine, you can go-“
