Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Hu Tao’s wife knew that her husband might have seen her call, but in his opinion, she was only looking for him for small matters, such as buying soy sauce and wet noodles. Therefore, her husband would call her back every time after settling all his work matters.
Around nine o’clock in the evening, Hu Tao called his wife and asked her what was the matter. Hu Tao’s wife was silent for half a minute before saying calmly, “Hu Tao, let’s get a divorce.”
The two divorced. Since Hu Tao’s wife did not have a stable job, Hu Min was under Hu Tao’s custody.
Hu Tao’s wife soon married a businessman, had a new family and children, and Hu Min lost her mother.
As a daughter, Hu Min had been with her mother day and night. She had witnessed her mother’s situation in the family, so she knew that the divorce was caused by Hu Tao neglecting his family.
From then on, Hu Min hated her father very much.
In Hu Min’s words, Hu Tao’s students were more important than his wife and daughter.
The young man said helplessly, “At that time, I went to Mr. Hu t s house for dinner. Hu Min’s attitude towards me was very cold. Perhaps in her opinion,
Hu Tao’s students stole Hu Tao’s attention to his family.”
The young man took a deep breath and finally got to the point of the case.
During the National Day holiday, the young man was resting at home when he suddenly heard a knock on the door. When he opened the door, he saw Hu Tao looking flustered and there were red bloodstains on his clothes.
The young man was shocked and hurriedly asked what had happened.
Hu Tao’s voice trembled. He took a deep breath and said that something had happened to Hu Min and she was likely to go to jail. He wanted to help Hu Min escape punishment, so he wanted the young man to help him. It was just a small favor and would not involve the young man in the case.
The young man was dumbfounded. He wanted to ask what was going on, but Hu Tao said that he didn’t have time. He only asked if the young man was willing to help him. If he wasn’t, he would think of another way.
To the young man, Hu Tao was his mentor. He had given him a lot of selfless love and help when he was a student. There was no reason for him not to help
Hu Tao. Therefore, the young man followed Hu Tao’s request and took a video. Then, he sent the video to the police anonymously.
“That’s probably what happened.” The young man heaved a long sigh of relief. Then, he said, “After seeing Hu Min’s manslaughter on the news, I went to look for Mr. Hu. I told Mr. Hu that Hu Min could be considered manslaughter. Even if she was sentenced, it wouldn’t be very serious. Usually, she would be sentenced to three to seven years in prison. However, if Hu Tao took the blame, it might be life imprisonment.”
The young man wanted to persuade his teacher not to take the blame. Hu Min was already an adult. She should also be responsible for what she had done. Hu Tao was silent for a while. Then, he revealed a tired smile to the young man. “Good child, thank you, but I’ve already decided on this matter. Minmin has been willful for so many years. I’ve always followed her. I know she can’t take hardship. Not to mention three years in prison, I can’t even bear to let her go to jail.
“Because of my negligence, she lost her mother and hated her father when she needed motherly and fatherly love the most. How bitter must she have been all these years? I can’t let the fact that she’s in jail ruin the rest of her life.”
When the actors from Group B arrived, there were already sobbing sounds from the audience below the stage. Many people took out tissues to wipe their tears.
The live- stream was also very quiet. Everyone watched quietly and did not immediately comment.
At the end of the story, police officer Ma Guang found Hu Min. He did not say much and only asked Hu Min, “In your heart, what do you think of your father?”
Hu Min knew that the sharp-eyed police officer in front of her might have already known the truth. Hu Min stared blankly at the glass in front of her with a complicated expression.
Ma Guang looked at Hu Min quietly. After a while, he turned around and went out. Hu Min’s eyes became redder and redder. Finally, she burst into heart-wrenching cries. The light became dimmer and dimmer, and Hu Min’s miserable back gradually disappeared into the darkness.
End of story.
A moment later, thunderous applause erupted from the event location.
There was no doubt that Group Bs performance was successful. The actors had also brought out a high standard that far exceeded the passing standard. Group B’s polishing of the details made the character’s personality more three-dimensional, and the plot twists were more reasonable..
