62 Forced to Retreat

“If you don’t believe me, that’s your business. What does it have to do with us?” Looking at the person who reported the case with an indignant look on her face, Le Wan did not let him go.

“You must have bribed the police, that’s why they’re on your side.” The person who made the report had found a more convincing reason. “I saw it too. When you walked into the police station just now, there were a few people who were talking and laughing with you. You must have colluded in advance!”

Le Wan was so angry that she had to laugh. She was clearly quarreling with Officer Xing at that time, and Zhai Jing’s face was as dark as murky water and he did not say a word. So, is this man’s eyes blind to even say that they were talking and laughing?!

She learned from Officer Xing that the person who had reported the case was called Xie Fang. The couple had a son who had developed uremia from a young age. After many years of dialysis, he was also in the final stages.

Just like Mama Zhai, if he didn’t get a kidney transplant, all the medicine in the world would still be useless.

Originally, everyone was on the same boat, to the point that if they coincidentally met, they could cheer each other up. However, the fact that Mrs. Ling suddenly obtained a new kidney, through such ‘magical’ circumstances, threw both Xie Fang and his wife’s mentality off-center, which was why they had such an intense reaction.

Even if Le Wan sympathized with them, that didn’t mean that he could simply accuse others just because of his own suspicions. She opened her mouth to refute him, but Zhai Jing pulled her back and stood in front of her. “Do you have any evidence?”

He asked Xie Fang straight up, “You said that we were in an organ trade with Chen Wei. Do you have any evidence? You said that the police colluded with us, but where is your proof?”

Zhai Jing was 1.89 (6″2′) meters tall. When he stood in front of Xie Fang, who was about 1.7 (5″7′) meters tall, he already looked very intimidating. Not to mention the fact that he had a calm disposition that most people his age did not have, as well as an unusually cold temperament.

When he glared at people with that calm and expressionless face, he was very intimidating.

“Admit that you don’t have any evidence and everything was just your speculation. What’s more is you made such a big deal out of it!”

“I... I didn’t.” Xie Fang was shocked by his aura and involuntarily took two steps back, almost tripping.

But Zhai Jing reached out and grabbed him in time. He pulled him to a chair and sat down. He squatted in front of him, with one hand still holding on to his hand.

“My mother also had kidney disease. If Mr. Shen didn’t appear in time and gave us hope, I could only watch her die, so I understand your feelings. When I was walking on the streets, I really wanted to drag everyone to the hospital and get them to do a matching test, but that obviously wouldn’t work.”

“I know that you don’t believe in miracles and I feel the same way. I feel like a thief, but this thing is just too precious. I can’t bear to give it up even if I’m accused of being one.”

From Le Wan’s point of view, it may have been that she really just thought that she was merely helping people out, but for the family members, who were stuck simply waiting to be saved, finding a suitable kidney was no different from people who trapped in the desert and were simply waiting for death to suddenly finding an oasis.

“So, as one of the lucky ones, you can scold me or even hit me, because I understand how you feel, but I will not allow you to insult and slander Le Wan!”

Zhai Jing asked Officer Xing for a copy of the hospital’s surveillance camera footage from that day and placed it in front of Xie Fang. “This is a precious opportunity that she got in exchange for saving so many lives without caring about her own. It wasn’t from the dirty deals you mentioned.”

Xie Fang opened the surveillance video with shaking hands and watched it several times. Finally, he broke down and cried on the table.

“Why do you think people get sick?” Chen Wei, who had also been summoned, looked at Xie Fang who was crying hard and couldn’t help but think of his daughter who was lying on a hospital bed. His eyes also turned red.

During all of this, Le Wan just leaned against a wall and did not speak. She lowered her eyes and looked at Zhai Jing, who was still sitting beside Xie Fang.

‘Zhai Jing must have been a kind person too back then. It was just that his life was full of hardships, matters of life and death, poverty, and all kinds of unhappiness, which could really force any person to get twisted into another form.’

‘Compared to the kind and strong Zhai Jing now, just how many injustices did he need to suffer to become the villain hellbent on destroying everything whilst dragging the male and female leads to hell with him?’

Le Wan was a little curious and a little distressed.

‘Since, by chance, I had found a suitable kidney for Mama Zhai, could this have changed Zhai Jing’s fate?’
