Reborn to inherit a 100 billion fortune, the real daughter is crazy
Chapter 726 Revealing the truth
It is said that a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. Chu Shengfeng and his wife may not show their harsh treatment of their children in front of relatives and friends, but the neighbors living on the same street can more or less see some clues. It is no wonder that the couple feel so guilty.
But Chu Jiamiao quickly began to comfort himself. No matter how powerful Professor Zhou was, he was just a neighbor at best. As an outsider, he would not be able to cause any trouble.
But who knew that she would be slapped in the face the next second.
……
Soon a reporter reacted and asked Professor Zhou: "You have such a strong opinion of the Chu couple. Is it because they haven't been very good to Mo Li, their adopted daughter, over the years?"
"Not very good?" Professor Zhou looked at Chu Shengfeng and his wife coldly, and said sharply: "Then you really underestimated them. What they did to Xiaoli over the years is worse than animals!"
Faced with Professor Zhou's accusations, Chu Shengfeng and his wife blushed, especially the mother Jiang Wanqiu, whose face turned redder.
Under Chu Shengfeng's gaze, she had no choice but to speak in defense, trying to stop Professor Zhou from making accusations in public: "Mrs. Zhou, you can't say that, can you? After all, I am the child's mother. My husband and I have our own set of educational methods. Xiaoli is our adopted daughter. How we want to educate her is our own business. It is not your turn as an outsider to interfere..."
Some people in the crowd felt that Jiang Wanqiu's words actually made some sense: "Yes, let me be fair - what parent in the world doesn't hope for the best for their children? The couple may just have a problem with the way they discipline their children, which is not up to the level of your thoughts, Professor Zhou. You don't have to scold them so harshly, right?"
"Mother? I don't believe that if you knew how they treated Xiaoli over the years, you would still think that Jiang Wanqiu deserves the word 'mother'!" Professor Zhou snorted coldly and began to talk:
"Xiao Li has been pretty and cute since she was young, and she is also very obedient and sensible. Our neighbors who live nearby like her very much, but her parents always treat her coldly, and even look at her with disgust. At first, we didn't know the reason, and we thought that the couple favored sons over daughters. We could only comfort them indirectly by saying that it didn't matter whether they had a boy or a girl, and persuaded them to be nice to the child in various ways. Later, the couple got tired of what we said, so they simply started to spread the news, telling everyone that Xiao Li was not their biological daughter, but just an adopted daughter of their Chu family."
In fact, Chu Shengfeng and Jiang Wanqiu’s original words were much more sarcastic than what Professor Zhou explained. Professor Zhou still feels indignant when he thinks of the extremely mean faces of the couple at that time.
Hearing this, the people around gradually fell silent.
Under normal circumstances, if a family adopts a child, they will do their best to keep the secret and try to give the child a healthy space to grow. Even if they need to tell the child about his or her life experience, they will often wait until the child grows up and has enough ability to bear it before they choose to tell the truth.
But Chu Shengfeng and his wife insisted on making a big fuss about it, which would do more harm than good to Mo Li. It was not difficult for everyone to imagine how much cold stares and criticisms she would endure from others as she grew up.
Chi Cunxu remained silent, looking at Chu Shengfeng and his wife with a dark look. Chu Shengfeng would feel a chill just by accidentally looking at him.
……
Professor Zhou continued, "These are just small things. The first time I noticed something was wrong was when Xiaoli was less than three years old. She was so old that she couldn't even walk steadily, but the Chu couple actually left her alone at home to play mahjong, and they didn't come home for a whole day and night. The child was so hungry that she kept crying at home and almost fell off the balcony. Fortunately, our neighbor found out in time and called the police. He asked a locksmith to pry into the villa and rescued her and fed her. At that time, Xiaoli hadn't eaten or drunk anything for nearly a day and a night."
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but gasp and looked at Chu Shengfeng and his wife angrily.
Children aged two or three have just learned to walk. Parents can get hurt if they are not careful. This is the time when they need to be with their children the most. How conceited can Chu Shengfeng and his wife be to do such a ridiculous thing as leaving a hungry child alone at home for a day and a night?
Professor Zhou continued, "Not only that, the couple showed no sign of repentance after they came back. They even had a big fight with several of our neighbors, blaming us for meddling in their business. Their main concern was not the safety of the child, but that we had damaged their front door without permission, and they demanded compensation from us."
Everyone couldn't hold back when they heard this. This was completely different from what everyone had imagined before, the so-called "different education methods". Leaving a two or three-year-old child alone at home to starve, and almost causing the child to fall from the building, this was more than carelessness, it could be considered child abuse.
However, even at this point, Jiang Wanqiu was still defending herself with a wronged look on her face: "...We can't do anything about it. It's not like the family didn't hire a nanny for her, but the nanny happened to be on leave during that time. What can we do? She just cries at home every day. My head hurts because of her crying. My husband and I can't sleep. Even if we are very patient, we can't stand it! Besides, we adults also need time to go out and relax occasionally, right?"
Chu Shengfeng on the side also muttered to himself in defense: "Besides, we explained everything to her before we left. We had already prepared milk powder and food for her. Who knew she would be so stupid that she couldn't eat by herself? And she even caused the police to be called to our house."
As soon as these words came out, they attracted a round of scolding from the crowd:
"How dare you say that? Are you two still human?"
"Until my son was five years old, we adults didn't dare to let him out of our sight. How dare you?"
"You don't have a father or a mother? I don't believe it. Could you have eaten by yourself when you were two or three years old?"
“Whose child didn’t cry when he was little?”
"If she's not your biological daughter, you won't treat her as a human being, right?"
"You still have the nerve to ask your neighbors to compensate for your door? Can't afford to live anymore? If you can't raise a child, don't raise him!"
