After being universally criticized online, I went viral on military-themed variety shows.

Chapter 230 Little Ruyi's Parents Come Looking for Her

Zhou Tong closed the door speechlessly and walked back. He stopped next to Jiang Hanying, bent down, and whispered a few words in her ear.

After listening, Jiang Hanying, with a piece of grilled shrimp cake still in her mouth, turned to look at the live broadcast camera.

[I almost peed my pants laughing when I opened the live stream this morning because of Jiang Hanying's antics!]

[Eating a three-year-old's meal? Honestly, even my niece, who just started middle school, wouldn't do something like that!]

[He even seriously said, "Let me taste it for you. If you want some, just say so. Would Little Ruyi really stop you?"]

That's right, our little Ruyi is very generous.

Jiang Hanying ate the shrimp cake in a few bites, looked away, and continued to enjoy her breakfast as if nothing had happened.

She's thick-skinned enough to be unaffected.

"Sister Hanying, the porridge is ready."

Zhou Tong brought over two bowls of freshly cooked porridge, one large and one small. Jiang Hanying took the large bowl, blew on it, and was about to take a sip when her phone, which was placed beside her, suddenly vibrated.

She glanced at the name on the caller ID and swiped to answer.

"Officer Lin, it's not time for work yet."

"But there's something urgent; Ruyi's parents are at the police station right now."

"Clap!"

Jiang Hanying looked at the child across from her who was quietly eating breakfast.

That was the sound of a spoon falling into a soup bowl.

Several drops of the scalding hot porridge splashed onto the child's hands, turning their once fair skin bright red in an instant, yet the child didn't even cry out in pain.

Zhou Tong's expression also changed. If the porridge splashed on an adult's hand, it would only make the skin red for a while, but a child's skin is delicate and might even cause blisters.

She rushed to the kitchen, opened the built-in mini-fridge, took out two bottles of chilled water, and hurriedly came back to press them on Xiao Ruyi's scalded hands and chin.

The viewers in the live stream were also caught completely off guard.

First, we suddenly received news that Xiao Ruyi's parents had appeared at the police station, and then Xiao Ruyi was burned by hot porridge. These changes happened too fast!

How serious is it?

How did I suddenly get burned?

Miss Zhou Tong should have let the porridge cool down a bit more before serving it to Xiao Ruyi.

[Still too inexperienced.]

[It's not entirely Miss Zhou Tong's fault. Little Ruyi is quite steady when eating, holding chopsticks and spoons. It seems she only dropped the spoon because she heard what Officer Lin said on the phone.]

[Oh my god, this is terrifying to think about! Little Ruyi seems really afraid of hearing her parents' voices!]

[Did everyone guess right yesterday? Little Ruyi was abused by her parents!]

【What should we do? 】

Don't go!

Don't go to the police station!

ten minutes later.

The production crew's car took Jiang Hanying and Xiao Ruyi to the police station separately.

As soon as Jiang Hanying and Xiao Ruyi got out of the car at the entrance of the police station, they saw a man and a woman rushing towards them.

Oh, no, it was running towards the child!

First, the woman knelt down suddenly in front of her and hugged the little Ruyi tightly, who was frozen in place.

The man, one step behind, also knelt on one knee, spread his arms, and embraced the woman and child.

Woman: "Ruyi, my little Ruyi, Mommy has finally found you!"

Man: "It's good that you found it, it's good that you found it!"

That scene was incredibly moving!
Viewers who had followed Jiang Hanying's live stream from the split screen were all utterly astonished. They had expected to see a relatively wealthy couple walking up to Xiao Ruyi, coldly reprimanding her, saying things like they would break her legs if she dared to run away from home again.

Or perhaps they are excitedly thanking the police officers at the station while holding their lost child who has been found again.

I never expected it to turn out like this, it's an unreserved outpouring of emotions!
[He was so excited, crying so hard snot bubbles were coming out of his nose; it didn't seem like he was acting.]

When my mom finally found me sleeping under a bridge after spending a whole day and night searching for me, she hugged me and cried her heart out, completely disregarding her image.

[From this perspective, it seems that Ruyi's parents love her very much!]

Have we guessed wrong again?

Some wavered, while others remained steadfast in their original views.

I poured cold water on any comments that showed signs of wavering.

[Maybe he knew he was being live-streamed and was afraid of being criticized for being too cold, so he was deliberately acting it out.]

Don't forget the cigarette burn scar on Xiao Ruyi's shoulder!

Don't forget the injury on the back of Xiao Ruyi's head!

And don't forget the doctor's diagnosis for Ruyi at the hospital yesterday!

There are also those that sway from side to side.

What exactly is real and what is fake?

I'm completely confused now!

Lin Mofei couldn't keep up with the couple's rush towards their daughter and arrived a few steps behind.

He glanced at the little Ruyi, whose head was barely visible as it was held in the arms of the couple, and then looked at Jiang Hanying, who was standing exceptionally straight even with her arms crossed.

His face was completely indifferent!
In addition, her all-black outfit today screams "cool" from head to toe!

Jiang Hanying noticed Lin Mofei's gaze and then lifted her eyelids, tilting her head slightly towards him.

Lin Mofei immediately understood and nodded, and the two of them walked discreetly to the other side of the car.

"Xiao Ruyi's parents came looking for her early this morning, aren't you happy?"

Jiang Hanying retorted, "And what about you?"

Lin Mofei was speechless for a moment.

Logically, he should be happy.

This couple came rushing over so early in the morning, before the police station even opened. They didn't seem like the kind of parents who would abuse their child.

“I asked them about the cigarette burns on Xiaoruyi’s shoulder and the injury on the back of her head. They said they adopted Xiaoruyi a year ago. Xiaoruyi’s biological mother is mentally ill and her father is unknown. The cigarette burns were from when Xiaoruyi’s biological mother had an episode. When they went to the orphanage to adopt a child, they happened to see the orphanage staff bringing Xiaoruyi there to save her from being abused by her mother who had episodes from time to time. When they saw Xiaoruyi, who was covered in injuries from abuse, they felt a connection with the child and specifically asked to adopt her. They also kindly sent Xiaoruyi’s biological mother to a mental hospital for treatment and have been paying for her medical expenses for the past year.”

Jiang Hanying listened without saying a word, then asked, "Are you telling me a story?"

“They probably wouldn’t lie. After all, we can easily find out about the orphanage and Xiao Ruyi’s biological mother who is receiving treatment in a mental hospital. There’s no need for them to lie like that.”

Jiang Hanying gave a soft "Oh," and then asked, "What about the injury on the back of your head?"

"They really don't know. It's inevitable that children will stumble and fall. Besides, Xiao Ruyi was abused from a young age, so her pain receptors are naturally dulled. This has happened a few times before. They noticed the bruises on Xiao Ruyi's body, but they only found out when they were almost healed."

“These words do sound reasonable.”

Lin Mofei's lips moved, but in the end he just nodded silently.

"But I still trust my intuition more."

Before Jiang Hanying could turn and leave after saying that, Lin Mofei couldn't help but call her back: "They are Xiao Ruyi's guardians, and we can't stop them from taking their own child away!"

Jiang Hanying paused for a moment, then said, "I understand." After saying those three words, she went into the police station without looking back.

Even though she noticed the child staring at her from behind, she didn't stop or turn around.

Lin Mofei stood there watching her walk into the police station. Just then, the sunlight burst forth, blurring the figure walking against the light.

He couldn't help but squint as he watched, and raised his hand to press his chest.

I feel inexplicably uneasy!
