I Am A Boss Mommy That Wants To Slack Novel - Chapter 451
451 Reversal!
Dugu Xiao was immediately awakened from his drunken stupor.
He then rubbed his throbbing temples and hoarsely said, “I’ve withdrawn all my follow-up plans, what’s the matter?”
The voice on the other end paused for a moment before speaking again, “Those people causing trouble on Weibo now, isn’t it because of you?”
Weibo?
!!
Dugu Xiao immediately opened Weibo and saw that the top trending topic was “#RichGirlFabricatesBigLies#”.
Millions of people had clicked it.
The title read: “Several villagers reveal the truth about the kidnapping incident fabricated by a rich woman.”
He clicked into the topic and saw several villagers being interviewed by reporters.
A reporter actually found the mountain where Shen Ruojing was kidnapped all those years ago. Over the years, the mountain had developed well and was now accessible by car.
The villagers there were more well-informed, and it seemed that they had seen the interview with Shen Ruojing, so one of them actually spoke out, “There were indeed six outsiders who came to our mountain back then. They even brought a rich girl with them, saying that she was there for research and scientific purposes. We didn’t know what they were up to!”
“That’s right, it was very mysterious at the time, and they didn’t let us get close. They even said that the rich girl’s research was toxic and that people would die if they got too close. They wouldn’t take responsibility for these deaths!”
“About half a year later, the police suddenly came and all the bodyguards died! There was also a family in the village who was curious and wanted to see what the rich girl was researching, but they also died!”
“It was too frightening!”
“We just saw the news and wanted to come out and tell the truth. You have all been deceived! What human trafficking are these people talking about? The people in our mountain know that even if there were any such cases, the people being kidnapped would be college students. Babies can also be bought and so, but for an 11-year-old girl who hasn’t even grown up, who would want to buy her?”
“That plot of land was bought by a scientist a long time ago and he was doing research there. How could he be trafficking women? She’s just talking nonsense.”
“Our village was impoverished in those years and couldn’t afford to marry wives. We did like to buy wives back then, but now we are more developed and don’t need to do that anymore. I can tell you the truth. There were indeed human traffickers at that time, but those people weren’t. They were dressed neatly and cleanly, looking like city people and not traffickers!”
“…”
The villagers were all very simple and spoke sincerely to the camera. It didn’t seem that they were pretending. Also, a person could lie, but how could an entire village say the same thing?
The internet exploded. Now, not only was Shen Ruojing criticized, but Shen Yuansong and Zheng Yi were also blamed for it.
All netizens were angry, thinking this was a typical way of lying to absolve oneself of guilt!
Dugu Xiao stared at the news and his heart sank. “527, this isn’t something I arranged!’”
This matter occurred 13 years ago, so how could he have specially sent people to investigate it?
Also, he didn’t know much about what had happened back then.
Listening to Dugu Xiao’s words on the phone, Chu Cichen fell silent. “It wasn’t you who arranged this?”
“I’ve stopped all subsequent actions! How could I hurt her again after I knew she was 518?!” Dugu Xiao said in a low voice.
Chu Cichen tightened his jaw.
Dugu Xiao said, “I’m coming to your house now!”
He hung up the phone directly after finishing his sentence.
Chu Manor.
In the living room, Chu Cichen looked at Shen Ruojing who had bandages on her forehead. He then frowned and asked, “Is anyone still targeting you?”
Yesterday, Zheng Yi’s endorsement had put the matter behind them.
Shen Ruojing was released without charge, so there should be no follow-up punishment. But now, with the sudden change in public opinion and the reaction of the villagers…
Shen Ruojing had fallen into a completely passive position!
However, Shen Ruojing frowned as she stared blankly at the interviews of those villagers on Weibo. “I was clearly kidnapped back then. Why would those villagers lie?”
Chu Cichen furrowed his brows. Suddenly, a bold idea flashed through his mind. “Jingjing, have you ever thought that maybe the villagers didn’t lie?”
Shen Ruojing was taken aback and looked at Chu Cichen sharply. “What do you mean?”
Chu Cichen took a deep breath and said, “Perhaps in the eyes of those villagers, those traffickers were just conducting scientific experiments! Don’t you think it was too easy for you to invent the No. 5 Neurotoxin back then?”
Shen Ruojing’s eyes darkened.
Chu Cichen continued, “I don’t know what happened to you back then. But how did you extract the No. 5 Neurotoxin while you were locked up in the underground cave?”
Shen Ruojing pursed her lips.
At the time, she was only eleven years old and her arm went numb after touching a plant. She then wanted to study what was inside the cave and see if it could be used to save her life.
When she was first kidnapped, besides being pressured at the start… things got better later on when she calmed down and chose to obey. She then asked them for some seemingly everyday things, and those traffickers gave them to her without asking questions.
Like batteries…
The radio she found at the time had a very low battery life, and she could only use it for a few days after discovering it.
So later on, when she asked those traffickers for batteries, they didn’t ask her why she wanted the batteries and just threw two batteries down to her.
After that, she said she wanted to drink water from a glass cup and those people gave it to her too…
Why were those ferocious and sinister human traffickers treating her so well?
Yet, later on, when she was having a fever, they actually refused to give her fever medicine.
They had kept her there for half a year. If she really died from the fever, wouldn’t they suffer a disadvantage?
The more Shen Ruojing thought about it, the more alarmed she became.
She faintly felt that everything that had happened back then was a scheme!
At this moment, her phone suddenly rang.
She started slightly and picked up the call. An electronic voice rang out, and this voice was very similar to the one who tried sowing discord between her and Chu Cichen back then. “Prof. Z, the Doom Organization greets you.”
The entire room abruptly fell silent upon hearing that.
Shen Ruojing’s heart sank!
She suddenly realized something. “Was the No. 5 Neurotoxin actually created by you guys?!”
