Many ordinary people were stunned by this gossip.

On the streets and alleys, people were passing around newspapers, and discussions were rising and falling.

A woman selling vegetables stared wide-eyed for a long time before finally saying, "This family is truly shameless, doing such a disgraceful thing."

An elderly man nearby shook his head and sighed, "The world is going to the dogs!"

Some people hold different views on this matter.

They believe that newspapers should not publish such scandals and that people's privacy should be protected.

"While this matter is indeed sensational, newspapers should also have a bottom line and should not disregard the privacy of others in order to attract attention," a scholar said.

However, some people believe that since the incident has already happened, making it public can serve as a warning to others.

"Such things can expose the ugliness of human nature, thus making people cherish morality and ethics even more," an elderly man said, expressing his opinion.
