Chapter 277

277 – Forced To (逼不得已)
A family of five, with Jing Tie Jun and Wang Xin Fang kneeling in front, while the three children knelt at the back.
Jing Xiu was trembling with tear-stained eyes as she felt scared seeing so many people, while Jing Ling was grabbing onto her arm with a death grip as she was also scared. On the other hand, Jing Ming Kai felt aggrieved as he never had to kneel to anyone in his whole life, yet now he had to kneel towards his ‘Big Sister’ whom he hated with a burning passion.
Currently, Wang Xin Fang had a look of suffering on her face, but Jing Tie Jun looked even more pitiful kneeling besides her. (C: I have regretted my actions to imagine this scene)
Such a prideful man, kneeling in front of other people with a face full of humiliation and helplessness caused the surrounding onlookers to shed tears for him.
The sudden actions of the Jing Family shocked both Xiao Hai Qing and Su Chu, causing the two girls to glare at the Jing Family, with Xiao Hai Qing almost speaking subconsciously, but she stopped herself after thinking about it carefully.
Let them continue kneeling then, they deserved it!
The more bullshit you spout, the more it’ll come back to bite your ass!
“Xiao-Yun, if you truly love studying that much, then we wouldn’t hesitate to sacrifice everything just for you. Previously, I said all those words in the heat of the moment so why don’t you stop being so petty about it…” Wang Xin Fang said while wiping her tears, as she continued, “Child, no matter what wrongs you’ve committed, you’ll still be a part of our family; It’s all our fault that you’ve suffered so much, if only we found you earlier…”
Jing Yun Zhao who was standing in front of them gave a little chuckle after hearing their sob story.
“Jing Yun Zhao! Are you human or not? To think that you could still laugh in a situation like this? They’re your parents for god’s sake!” A person furiously shouted amidst the onlookers, while anger was starting to show on the faces of the other onlookers, with their feelings of compassion for Jing Yun Zhao already starting to fade.
Even if Jing Yun Zhao experienced alot of hardships in her childhood, how could she use that as a reason to not recognize her parents!? Additionally, anyone can see that the father and mother are extremely kind people, while their children are so mature and understanding, so how can she still fault them? (C: SIR, IMMA NEED YOU TO GET BETTER GLASSES)
However, Jing Yun Zhao acted like there was no one shouting at her, and only lowered her head to ask, “All these people here today, did you gather them?”
“Don’t blame Father and Mother! It was me! I made multiple posts about this on the Internet!” Jing Ling shouted excitedly. (C: Of course it was you, you had no screen time after all)
Hearing that, Jing Yun Zhao nodded her head, the few questions she had on her mind solved.
No wonder there were so many supporters today, Jing Ling is only a twelve-year-old girl, even if she made some posts about it on the internet, it’s not possible for so many people to gather here today; This means that the He Family also had a hand in this situation by getting their water-army to find Jing Ling’s obscure posts and raising such a big fuss, to the point that so many reporters came today.
“So you guys also agreed by letting Jing Ling make all these posts?” Jing Yun Zhao questioned the couple again.
In response to Jing Yun Zhao’s question, Wang Xin Fang pitiful replied, “Child, we had no choice… we didn’t know what to do at the time. Then, we heard about Jing Ling’s posts and thought about the support we’ve received to advise you, but I never imagined the issue would be blown this big…”
“Everyone, you should all go back now and stop bothering my Xiao-Yun, she’s only acting like this because we’ve lost contact for so long… but she’s still a good child.” Wang Xin Fang continued and shouted at the crowd while crying.
Wang Xin Fang’s attitude of protecting Jing Yun Zhao by defending her only made the onlookers even more furious.
“Jing Yun Zhao, do you not even feel an ounce of shame? Now, your mother is kneeling on the ground, yet she’s still thinking about you and defending you. However you still don’t know what’s good for you; you’re making her efforts all go in vain!”
“He’s right! Jing Yun Zhao you should kneel down and beg your parents for forgiveness!”
“Kneel down! Kneel down…” Suddenly the mob started shouting and chanting, with someone from the mob throwing a rock towards Jing Yun Zhao, hitting her on the forehead.
