The boss’ voice was a little loud, and Yang Jingyi jumped in shock as she subconsciously grabbed the corner of Ji Zixuan’s shirt.
Seeing this, Ji Zixuan protected Yang Jingyi while pulling Ji Yuanyuan behind him.
In the supermarket, Ji Zi’ang heard the boss’s scolding.
When they came in, the woman was in a corner, so Ji Zi’ang thought there were only four of them in the supermarket.
Therefore, when the boss opened his mouth, he was stunned for a moment.
Then, he threw down his things and came out.
He thought the boss was scolding them.
When he came out, he realized his eldest brother and younger sister were standing there perfectly fine.
At the door, the young boss grabbed the woman’s clothes and scolded her again in a low voice, “Take it out. Don’t make me say it a second time!”
The woman was wearing patched clothes, and her sandals were almost torn.
Her hair was unkempt and her face was sallow.
Ji Yuanyuan was a little surprised to see her dressed like this.
In the past few years, everyone had lived a good life. It was really rare to see such tattered clothes and shoes.
“You’re not taking it out, right? Then just wait. 1’11 call the police now!” the boss was so angry that he dragged the woman to the cashier to make a call.
When the woman heard this, she finally became anxious. She took out the things in her arms and handed them to the boss, “Don’t call the police. I’ll return it to you!”
It was a pair of pink sandals with diamonds and a bow.
The shoes weren’t big, so they should be for children.
The boss lowered his head and looked at the shoes on the woman’s feet, then at the shoes in her hands.
“Hmph!” after a moment, the boss snorted, “You really stole my things. Do you think you can just apologize? Fortunately, I discovered it, what if I didn’t? Did you just want to take my things and leave? No, we have to call the police!”
He was a man, so he had a lot of strength. He dragged the woman to the cashier.
He grabbed onto the woman’s clothes tightly. Then, with a rip, the woman’s clothes tore.
The boss was stunned for a moment, but he still did not relent.
He let go of the clothes and grabbed the woman’s wrist.
Next to the cashier, he reached out and was about to press the phone number to call the police.
The woman became anxious when she saw this. Suddenly, she knelt in front of the boss with a thud, “Boss, 1 beg you, please don’t call the police, please don’t call the police…”
Not only the boss, but Ji Yuanyuan and the rest were also stunned.
It was said that men had gold on their knees, but so did women.
Kneeling down for a pair of shoes, wasn’t that a little too easy?
There was no one else in the shop other than Ji Yuanyuan and the other three.
“Boss,” Ji Zixuan advised, Ask her to pay up. Why don’t we forget about it?”
In this situation, even if the police came, it would be useless.
At most, he would give a warning and inform her family to come and get her.
“That won’t do. If she can steal from me today, she can steal from others tomorrow. I have to call the police and let them teach her a lesson!” after a short moment of shock, the boss quickly recovered and said angrily.
“Boss, it won’t happen again.” The woman knelt on the ground and grabbed the boss’s hand that was about to reach for the phone, “My daughter got first place in the class. She wants a new pair of shoes. 1 don’t have money, so I was possessed. Please don’t call the police…”
The boss snorted coldly, “If you don’t have money, don’t wear it. If people without money can steal things, will there still be law in this world?”
The boss shook off the woman’s hand and pressed the call to the police.
The police station in town was only a few hundred meters away. In less than five minutes, the police arrived.
Seeing the police, the woman was even more frightened. She knelt on the ground and trembled.
The police officer entered and frowned when he saw the situation, “What happened? Even she steal from you, he can’t make you kneel on the ground. What did you steal? How much is it worth?”
“I didn’t ask her to kneel,” the boss hurriedly explained, “She knelt herself.”
One of the young police officers stepped forward and was about to help the woman up, “Big sister, get up and tell me, what exactly is going on?”
However, the woman was kneeling on the ground and did not get up at all, “I don’t dare, I really don’t dare. 1 beg you, let me go…”
“What did you steal?” the older policeman looked at the boss and asked impatiently.
“Here, this one! She had it in her arms when she left. I almost didn’t see it!” the boss reached out and pointed at the pink sandals.
When the older police officer saw the pair of sandals, he was a little surprised.
After being a police officer for so many years, he had probably seen everything.
When the young policeman saw the pair of sandals, he was a little surprised.
“How much is this pair of shoes?” the young policeman asked.
“This pair is six yuan.” The boss replied.
The older policeman wrote something on the paper and then looked at the two of them, “The two of you, come back to the police station with us.”
“Big Sis, get up first. The amount involved isn’t high. When the time comes, you can ask your family to come over and pay up. It won’t be a problem once you sign the papers.” The young policeman explained carefully and reached out to help the woman up.
When the woman heard his words, her expression became even more frightened.
Suddenly, she fell to the ground with a thud and her head hit the ground heavily.
“Please, I was just confused. My man was injured at the construction site and collapsed on the brick bed. I just want to buy a pair of shoes for my daughter. I was confused for a moment. Please don’t let my man know about this. I beg you…”
The woman’s head hit the ground several times. Ji Yuanyuan’s heart palpitated when she heard that.
“How pitiful!” Yang Jingyi muttered to herself as she looked at the woman.
Ji Yuanyuan carefully observed the woman’s hand, which was full of calluses and cracks.
“Officer, this Auntie didn’t do it on purpose. Why don’t I help her make up the money and don’t inform her family?” Ji Yuanyuan stepped forward and discussed with the older policeman.
She felt this woman was not a repeat offender. If she was, she wouldn’t have just stolen a pair of worthless shoes.
In the supermarket, there were things that were more valuable than shoes, but she didn’t touch them. Perhaps she really did have a paralyzed husband and a cute daughter who was good at her studies at home.
If that was really the case, then if she helped the woman now, she might be saving a family.
Even if the woman was lying, no one would lose anything. She was the only one who lost six yuan.
Six yuan was not a lot to her. She would just treat it as if she had lost it!
The older police officer refused, “No, you’re not her family. You have to have her family come.”
Ji Yuanyuan did not say anything and merely looked at the young policeman beside him.
The young police officer looked like he had not been working for long and was full of enthusiasm.
If he could help say a few words, the older police officer might be able to make an exception..
