"What did you say?"

Song Mingzhi nearly choked. He had been a bit forceful during their intimacy, but Zhang Fang hadn't resisted. "You're saying I raped you? Zhang Fang, do you have any conscience?!"

"..."

Zhang Fang almost laughed out of anger.

Does this scoundrel even know what conscience is? How dare he talk to her about conscience?

Zhang Fang hugged herself tightly, crying and accusing the entire Song family, "Your whole family is heartless! Song Mingyu paid me to come to your house, and it was clearly agreed that I would take care of your mother."

"But ever since I moved into this house, I not only have to cook and do laundry, but I also have to wash pots and pans, clean dishes and tidy up... It's one thing to do the chores, but your family is bullying me too much."

"You injured your shoulder, and I took care of you for a few days in the hospital, which was fine. But after you were discharged, with so many people in your family, you actually moved into my room and made me take care of you. I'm just an unmarried young woman, how can you make such a request?"

The neighbors were stunned.

Letting a young girl share a room with you? Isn't that blatantly taking advantage of her?

Everyone looked at Sun Man.

Sun Man nodded in confirmation of Zhang Fang's statement, "It was indeed Song Mingzhi who requested to move into Zhang Fang's room, and Song Beiping and Li Shufen both agreed."

"hiss!"

The neighbors gasped.

It's one thing if Song Mingzhi had ill intentions, but why didn't Song Beiping and Li Shufen tell the two children to avoid suspicion? Didn't they know that it's not appropriate for a lone man and woman to live in the same room?

They did it on purpose.

Anyway, it's their son who benefits, and they can also use such despicable methods to disgust Sun Man. It's a win-win situation!

Those two old bastards are truly heartless.

Zhang Fang became more and more enthusiastic as she performed.

Upon seeing Director Li in the crowd, he rushed over and knelt down in front of Director Li with a thud. "Director Li, you must do justice for me!"

"I had planned to leave after a month, but who knew... who knew that Song Mingzhi was such a scoundrel, he actually did this to me while I was taking a nap, to me... sob sob sob."

He only said half the story.

The remaining half leaves much to the imagination.

Zhang Fang cried uncontrollably, "I've lost my innocence, how can I ever face anyone again? I might as well just die!"

talking.

She struggled to get up from the ground, staggering as she tried to crash into the wall.

"Ouch!"

Director Li was terrified and rushed over to hug Zhang Fang's lower back. Zhang Fang struggled desperately, crying, "Don't stop me! Let me die! Let me die!"

Director Li hurriedly tried to persuade her, "Young lady, calm down. You only have one life. Once you die, it's like a light going out. You have nothing left. Think about your parents. They raised you all these years, and you haven't even repaid them yet."

Zhang Fang cried even harder, "My mother died young, and my father remarried a long time ago. If it weren't for my stepmother's abuse, I wouldn't be working as a nanny in the city at such a young age... Let me die, so I can be reunited with my mother!"

"..."

She deserves to die.

Why bring up your parents out of the blue?

Director Li held the person tightly, not daring to let go. "Think of your other relatives. There are always people in this world who truly love you. You can't let them be sad for you."

Zhang Fang was taken aback. "My grandparents dote on me."

Director Li was overjoyed.

Just as she was about to advise her not to let her grandparents outlive their child, Zhang Fang broke down in despair and cried, "But my grandparents passed away one after another last year... I'm going to die now, and maybe I can see my grandparents and my mother again."

"..."

She deserves to die!

This child is so pitiful.

Director Li felt sympathetic and guilty, and hurriedly comforted him, "Child, your grandparents and your mother love you so much, they definitely want you to live a good life, you can't let them down."

"Director Li, I can't go on living like this. I originally came to the city to earn some money, and then I planned to go back to my hometown, find a reliable and stable man to marry, and stay far away from my father and stepmother. But now... what kind of good family can I find? What kind family would want a woman like me?"

She cried and said, "Song Mingzhi has ruined my life. He only dared to bully me like this because he was sure that no one would support me. Director Li, you should just let me die. At least people will praise me for being brave."

Zhang Fang struggled to bang her head against the wall.

Director Li was frantic. "Who says no one's backing you up? I'll stand up for you and won't let Song Mingzhi bully you for nothing!"

"..."

Zhang Fang froze, staring blankly at Director Li. "But...aren't you the women's director on Song Mingzhi's side? Will you really help me?"

"I'm the women's director, and I'm responsible for protecting the rights of all women. Don't worry, I'll make sure the Song family gives you an explanation for what happened today!"

Zhang Fang's nose suddenly stung with tears.

If all law enforcement officers were like Director Li, she wouldn't have been forced to come to the city to make a living.

Zhang Fang sat on the ground hugging her knees, finally calming down.

Director Li breathed a sigh of relief, then immediately glared at Song Mingzhi, "How could such a scoundrel like you come from the neighborhood! You used to beat your wife, and now you dare to force women to commit crimes! What do you want? If you want to get shot, I'll call the police right now and grant your wish!"

"..."

Song Mingzhi jumped up and down in anger, "Director Li, do you have a problem with my family? When I fought and argued with Sun Man, you sided with Sun Man, and now you're siding with Zhang Fang. So you're taking the side of whoever opposes my family? Is this how a women's director should act? I'm going to write a complaint tomorrow accusing you of abusing your power for personal gain!"

Director Li was so angry that he was trembling all over.

She mediated, giving Song Mingzhi a way out. If he really reported it to the police or caused a death, he could expect to be shot.

Doesn't that bastard know anything about right and wrong?!

Director Li pointed at Song Mingzhi, gritting her teeth, and said, "Fine, fine, fine! I won't get involved in your family's petty squabbles. Let Zhang Fang call the police. Let's see if you're still so tough when the police arrive. Don't say I didn't warn you, hooliganism is a crime punishable by death!"

Upon hearing this...

Zhang Fang struggled to her feet and, without saying a word, was about to call the police.

Song Mingzhi panicked, rushed over and restrained the man, then turned to Director Li to explain, "I really didn't force Zhang Fang, she seduced me!"

These words are pale and powerless.

Director Li said he didn't believe it at all.

The neighbors, considering the Song family's character, also expressed their disbelief.

Song Mingzhi's eyes turned red with anger.

Zhang Fang slapped him hard across the face. "Song Mingzhi, you shameless babe! I slept on the floor in my pajamas after showering, completely covered up, and stayed in the same room with you. I didn't even dare take off my undergarments. How did I seduce you?"

"..."

Song Mingzhi covered his face; he couldn't even remember how many slaps he'd received today. He roared, "You say I forced you? Why didn't you scream? Did any of the neighbors hear Zhang Fang cry for help?"

If I cover my face, she won't be able to hit me?

Zhang Fang slapped Song Mingzhi hard across the other side of his face. "How am I supposed to scream when you're covering my mouth? You even threatened me, saying you'd ruin my reputation if I screamed. Do you think I'd dare to scream?!"

"..."

When did he cover her mouth? When did he threaten her?

Unable to defend himself, Song Mingzhi was so angry that his blood boiled. His finger trembled as he pointed at Zhang Fang, and after a long pause, he finally managed to stammer, "Director Li, I'm innocent!!"
