2084

Ling Yan has always been very measured in Zone VI, firstly because this is not his home game, and secondly because he always has to take into account the face of Boqi and all parties.He has always left room for this since he found out about it yesterday. Whether it was dismissing Ren Di on the spot to wake up the judge, or letting Miss He communicate overnight, it was all out of fear that the municipal government would be passive in controlling public opinion after this incident escalated...

He saved so much face, he really didn't expect these people to be so bold, they didn't care about the protesting opinions of the people in this area, and they completely ignored this matter.

Ling Yan's hands trembled a little, he dialed Liu Song's contact information, and asked her to send a media person near VI District to report.

Protest expression is originally a relief valve for social mentality. Since Su Xian has been preparing for so long, he will help relieve the social mentality that is about to collapse.Since the municipal government doesn't care, he doesn't need to help them cover their shame.Let's make a big fuss.

Liu Song readily agreed, and asked casually before hanging up, "What about your local media?"

Ling Yan looked indifferent, "Dead."

After arranging for Ms. He to meet the reporters at any time, Ling Yan selected a few technical young people in the team to follow the public opinion in the area online, wait and see and report at any time, and then he ran out to smoke. Qi Siming knew that he was upset, so he didn't follow , just looking at the public opinion trend chart in the car.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Ling Yan went out, he saw Sophia, the internet-addicted girl from yesterday.

She didn't mix in the crowd at the school gate, but squatted on the flower bed next to his car, raised her right wrist with a nonchalant expression, and seemed to be talking to someone, and immediately talked to him when she saw him come out His eyes met squarely.

"Hi!" Wearing a mask, she still waved at him coolly, "give me some contact information."

The flower bed was very high, and Sophia didn't know how to climb it. Ling Yan walked over and was at the same level as her eyes.

He asked her, "Why are you squatting here?"

The little girl said indifferently, "Where are you staying?" Her eyes were tired, as if such a loud parental protest in front of her had nothing to do with her.

Ling Yan took a step back and said, "Come down."

"what?"

"Take you to eat."

Sophia curled her lips, she seemed quite satisfied with the answer, and jumped off with a push of her right hand, her movements were quite elegant.

The little girl was only as tall as Ling Yan's chest, and when she raised her head again, she asked him with a disrespectful face, "Aren't you a parent? Just your car, and you don't look like someone who sends children to the second high school. Who are you?" ? Are you chasing my mother?"

Ling Yan never expected that his image in Sophia's eyes was actually a candidate father. He was full of worries at first, but he was amused by her two words, but he didn't try to defend himself. He followed Sophia's train of thought and asked, "There are many people chasing your mother. ?"

"That must be a lot." Sophia said in a tone, grabbing the corner of his clothes in a daze, "Parents who meddle in their own business are not good parents. When you see my mother later, don't say that I was in the game hall yesterday, okay. ?"

Sophia picked a best-decorated pastry shop near the school, led Ling Yan, rushed to the glass counter in a pretentious manner, and ordered a lot of snacks as usual.Children of this age are all greedy, Ling Yan doesn't mind, but Sophia doesn't order all of them for herself, after that she added more than a dozen cups of milk tea, and asked the clerk to deliver it to Su Xian and the others at the school gate.Then the bill was pulled and Ling Yan was asked to pay.

Sophia didn't seem to be under any psychological pressure. The little cakes under the sun were attractive in color. She went straight to the window and sat down with the tray in her arms. She didn't care about Ling Yan and ate it with a fork.

Ling Yan was curious, "This store is so close to your school, can't you eat enough every day?"

"Where do you eat every day?" Sophia glanced at him, "I haven't eaten for a long time, the family is in a lawsuit, and the lawyer's money is not enough, and you look at the few machines outside, it is very expensive to borrow for a day, how can there be so many money?"

Having said that, this child does not have the habit of being thrifty and not wasting at all. She used her fork to fork one piece of cake, and did not eat too much.

Ling Yan looked at her without words, "The game hall costs one hundred per hour."

The girl hissed, pouted and glared at him, seeing that this dissatisfaction hadn't passed by, and a piece of Japanese cherry cake she dug out at random immediately pleased her, her eyes suddenly narrowed again, and she looked at him. Ling Yan said happily, "Try it, this is delicious!"

After she finished speaking, she seemed to feel that she didn't express enough, so she cut a piece with a spoon and brought it directly to Ling Yan's mouth.

Ling Yan, who was forced to break the social distance by a minor, was taken aback for a moment.

He doesn't eat bean paste, and he doesn't like pink things, so he subconsciously avoids it, "I don't need it, you can eat it."

Food lovers are also very upset when they encounter anorexics.The child didn't seem to have any sensitive thoughts, but the surprise in her eyes was extinguished at once. She held the spoon in her hand and muttered with some dissatisfaction: "Why don't you eat? I'm not dirty. "

The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was interested, and the air was strangely quiet.

Poor Ling Yan has no experience with adolescent girls. He treats this girl who he imagined had been sexually abused as an adult, fearing that he might accidentally hurt her heart by saying a wrong word.He glanced at the silent child in front of him, feeling helpless, he picked up a new fork resignedly, unpacked it, and dug a piece of Sakura Mochi into his mouth.

Sophia looked up at him.

Bean paste is definitely the most unfriendly thing in the world.Ling Yan forced a smile on his face, and gave her a delicious expression, "I didn't mean to dislike you just now, you know that it is always difficult to manage a middle-aged figure, so be careful with sweets, your mother always needs to be photogenic, this you should know."

Ling Yan endured the humiliation and took the initiative to give himself a seniority.But obviously, he didn't find the kid's hole right.

Sophia drooped her eyes, stared at him cleanly for a moment, and said suddenly, "I know you are not my mother's suitor."

"You are too far behind, she has no chance to meet such a decent person as you," she shook her head, "I haven't seen you like that either."

For little girls, grown men are like lions that suddenly appear in front of young springboks, and they are instinctively afraid of them, but Sophia clearly feels that the young men in suits and ties in front of them are different.

She has never seen such a person, this kind of person who obviously has strong economic strength at first glance, and who should be very aggressive, but stretches his eyebrows and smiles slightly at her.

As if he was afraid of scaring her, he spoke as kindly as possible, saying that he would take her to eat, he didn't interfere with the place or the food, and he didn't talk much, as if he just wanted to act as her cash machine for a while to make her happy .

I saw that the person in front of me didn't care too much after listening to her, and asked, "So let me introduce myself now?"

Sophia didn't answer, and looked away, "Uncle, I'm not happy at all."

She raked her soft hair indiscriminately, she didn't know where the impulse came from, and suddenly wanted to talk about herself.

"Look at these people, it seems that there are so many and so lively. In fact, they can only last this morning at most. They still go to work, work, and work. I actually don't want Su Xian to make such a big noise. They want to If I was expelled, I would be expelled. Anyway, I don’t miss it a long time ago. I don’t care about this school at all. Chen An always scolds me, calling me stupid in front of the whole class. I have spent a lot of money, and I don’t want to miss this school for a long time... Even today, in fact, many uncles and aunts persuaded me, as well as my mother, saying forget it, why are you always bothering about this matter? good……"

I don't know what conflict happened outside again, and the crowd surged slightly.

She gritted her teeth and said word by word, "But why forget it? I was so scared to death that day, why should I let him go? The police don't care, and the procuratorate doesn't care. Counter-sued me, called me and my mother to get the subpoena, but there was no subpoena, he just came to wait for me, he was so arrogant at the gate of the court, scolding me for not doing my job properly, saying I deserve it, telling me to wait, you say Why should I let him go?..."

She opened her eyes wide, but she didn't look at Ling Yan, her hands holding the table were trembling.

This is the saddest and most paradoxical aspect of all sexual assault incidents.

Those pains, those memories, those painful flashbacks, the victim can't sleep at night, the perpetrator may not care about this matter at all.Many years later, they will even forget this "little matter" and this girl. They still eat and drink well, and when they can't resist the public opinion, they will reject it with the paper of "defamation damage", strategically delaying.

The structural oppression of vulnerable groups in this society has become so bad that some people try their best and dare to shout loudly. Where is the fairness?

Sophia's voice was pathetic and pitiful, and the volume couldn't be controlled to get higher. Ling Yan couldn't sit still any longer, so he walked around to the side of her chair, stretched out his arms and hugged her.He has always been afraid of someone showing too intense emotions in front of him, not because he is afraid of embarrassment, but because he can't bear it.I can't bear to see a person's misfortune, but also see her torn apart.

His chest was heaving, and he hugged the thin girl in front of him tightly as if he couldn't bear the weight, his voice was difficult.

"Don't cry, Sophie, don't cry."

I don't know if it was because Ling Yan's voice was too warm, but Sophia couldn't control it all at once, and cried even harder.Ling Yan hurriedly took out the scarf and gave it to her, trying to cover the curious eyes of other people in the shop with himself.

He was like a student who hadn't prepared for the exam but was caught temporarily to answer the paper. Facing the super-syllabus question in front of him, he was anxious and helpless.

He tried hard to recall the way Qi Siming comforted him, patting the girl's back lightly, hoping to comfort her, "According to the schedule, I should not be in Zone VI today, do you know why I appear here?"

His voice was soft and gentle, "Because I met a little girl yesterday, just a few hours ago, I saw her lying in the game cabin, the cabin door showed that the game time had been dozens of hours, I was scared As soon as I jumped, what I thought in my heart was 'why no one cares about this child?'... I am very worried about her, and I also care about her, Sophi, do you know? Many people care about her, and there are so many people at the school gate The uncles and aunts she supports, those she knows and those she doesn’t know, are all concerned about her.”

"Don't cry, don't be for someone who is not worth it, you are the cutest girl I have ever seen, no matter what you have encountered, these are not your fault, don't blame you..."

Ling Yan was affected by Sophia's emotions, and after saying this, he felt like he was about to collapse.Fortunately, this Sophia was not picky, and gradually calmed down after listening to his words.
