Chapter 3043: Only Wang Ying Could Save Her Son Now

After lunch, Li Bing’s mother returned to cause another ruckus.

Standing at the door, she hurled insults.

But today, her throat still hurt so her voice was hoarse. Even swallowing her own saliva was painful.

She thought it was just from yelling too much the day before.

But thoughts of her son pushed her on.

Only Wang Ying could save her son now.

If Wang Ying just said the word—that it was consensual—her son would be free.

Li Bing’s mother planned to pester them endlessly, making life unbearable until they gave in.

However, her sore throat made her efforts half-hearted. She had to stop shouting frequently to rest, even asking neighbors for water.

Especially those who had seen the ghost with their own eyes. They were still hiding under their blankets, trembling.

The nonsense between Li Bing and Wang Ying was old news.

Many thought they should invite a shaman to exorcise the ghost.

No one knew which lonely soul or wild ghost was wandering the village.

Some had even planned to stay up tonight and gather together to see what the ghost looked like.

Exactly what kind of ghost was it?

Li Bing’s mother wasn’t in a good state today and had to continuously take breaks after cursing for a short while, so the Wang family just went about their day as normal.

Li Bing’s mother grew angrier, shouting with a voice that sounded like air leaking from broken bellows: “Wang Ying, if you don’t get my son out, I’ll kill myself at your doorstep!”

She drew a crowd. After all, a life-or-death performance was always the most entertaining.

Seeing so many people, Li Bing’s mother felt emboldened and threw herself toward the wall.

But a few villagers with fast reactions grabbed her before she could hit it.

Some couldn’t stand idle anymore and turned to Wang Ying’s father.

“They’re a widow and an orphan. If Li Bing goes to jail, who will take care of his elderly mother?”

“Old Wang, this is enough. If she really dies at your doorstep, it’ll be on you.”

“Besides, wasn’t Li Bing supposed to marry Wang Ying? What’s the point of causing all this drama?”

“We’re all from the same village—why go to such extremes? You should always leave some room for compromise.”

The words of the crowd made Wang Ying’s father hunch his shoulders even more. He couldn’t say anything to refute it.

Ning Shu watched these people—so self-righteous, each one a representation of true goodness, as if they were white lotuses untouched by mud.

It seemed last night’s events hadn’t scared them enough.

Otherwise, why would they still have the energy to meddle in others’ business and preach?

I think you should…

Who were they to tell others what to do when they had never experienced that pain for themselves?

What was wrong with this world? The guilty were so brazen, while the innocent suffered in silence.

If it weren’t for the fact that she was a woman who had been raped, or if Li Bing had been a murderer instead, these same people would probably have avoided Li Bing’s mother like the plague.

Seeing the support around her, Li Bing’s mother threw herself onto the ground, wailing as tears and snot streamed down her face.

But her voice was weak and raspy, rising and falling unpredictably as if even she couldn’t control it.

Ning Shu counted down silently in her mind. Soon, just a little longer.

Wang Ying’s father hesitated before speaking, his weathered face etched with exhaustion. Years of labor in the fields had left him worn down, aged, and impoverished. “Wang Ying, about this matter…”

Wang Ying’s father clearly wanted to compromise.

Ning Shu sighed inwardly but said nothing.

“Fine,” Wang Ying’s mother interjected impatiently. “I’ll take Wang Ying to the county police station tomorrow. Just stop making a fuss.”
