“What are you talking about!” Wu Tian was furious at the boss’s words.
He said, “You’re saying I broke it? How long have I been gone? How could I have broken it?”
“This is clearly your own problem, how can you blame me?”
The woman argued unreasonably, “You say you didn’t break it, then tell me, how did you know the wires were broken? Do you have X-ray vision?”
“So, you must have broken the wires yourself, and then you didn’t want to spend money on new ones, so you’re blaming me.”
She said aggressively, “Let me tell you, I’ve been doing business for many years, and I’ve seen all sorts of people!”
“I saw at a glance that you’re no good, you really are social trash!”
“What did you say?” Hearing her unreasonable accusations, Wu Tian became even more enraged.
He glared at the woman and said, “This is clearly your problem. You’re not trying to solve it, and now you’re saying such things. Is this how you do business?”
The woman said unreasonably, “It’s not for you to teach me how to do business.”
“Let me tell you, you’d better get out of here now, or I guarantee you’ll regret it!”
Wu Tian feared threats the least, especially when he was in the right.
He retorted, “Regret? Sorry, I don’t know what regret is.”
“You must resolve this matter for me today, otherwise, I guarantee I won’t leave here!”
The woman looked at him sullenly and said, “You’re not leaving? Fine, then don’t blame me for being impolite!”
After speaking, she unbuttoned her jacket, pulled down her collar, revealing her shoulder!
This action surprised Wu Tian, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.
He frowned and said, “What are you going to do? Don’t play any tricks!”
The woman smiled sinisterly, “Kid, you’re too young to fight me!”
With that, she suddenly ran towards the door and shouted at the top of her lungs, “Help! Someone is trying to rape me!”
Wu Tian was stunned and quickly shouted, “Shut up! Don’t yell nonsense!”
But the woman persisted, and soon a large crowd gathered at the entrance.
“What’s wrong? Who’s trying to rape you?” people asked the woman.
The woman squeezed out two tears, pointed into the shop, and accused, “It’s him, he’s trying to rape me!”
Wu Tian walked out from inside and found everyone looking at him.
Someone questioned him, “Young man, what’s going on here?”
“In broad daylight, you dare to try to rape a woman, you’re really audacious!”
Wu Tian’s gaze was clear, and he sat upright. He said, “Everyone, you’ve misunderstood. I didn’t try to rape her, she’s just yelling nonsense!”
The woman shouted, “You’re the one talking nonsense. You clearly wanted to rape me. If I hadn’t run fast, I, I…”
At this point, she feigned crying and covered her face.
Someone asked, “What exactly happened?”
“Can you explain clearly? If you can’t explain, then I’ll have to call the police!”
Wu Tian lifted the birdcage in his hand and said, “I bought a stove from her earlier, but when I got home, I found it was broken, so I came back to get it exchanged.”
“But she not only refused to exchange it, but insisted I broke it myself, and then accused me of trying to rape her.”
“Listen to this, does such logic exist in the world?”
When the crowd heard this, they turned to the woman and said, “Is what he said true? If so, then you’re slandering him!”
Since the woman was capable of doing such a thing, it meant she was not a person who cared about her reputation.
So she shouted again, “How could I make up something like this? Am I crazy?”
“I don’t know him at all, and his item wasn’t bought from me, but as soon as he came in, he said he wanted to exchange it, so of course I wouldn’t give him one!”
“Then he said if I didn’t exchange it, he would take his anger out on my body, and then, then…”
At this point, she feigned crying again.
Wu Tian’s heart immediately blazed with anger.
He thought it would be a simple matter, but he didn’t expect to encounter such a boss who escalated the situation to this point.
Even worse, due to the frequent news about rape incidents in the past two years, people had become overly sensitive to such matters.
Basically, if a woman made a scene, she was usually believed, without needing any evidence.
Everyone believed what the woman said, and for a moment, everyone glared at Wu Tian with anger, followed by a barrage of accusations:
“You young man, you’re too much, you’re simply a beast!”
“Yes, look at how much older she is than you. She could be your mother, yet you could do such a thing. Is there no law anymore!”
“Let me tell you, with me here today, you’re not getting away!”
“I will definitely have you arrested and sent to jail. Guys like you should be locked up honestly!”
The crowd continued to accuse Wu Tian, and their words were particularly harsh, treating Wu Tian as a genuine rapist.
Wu Tian was annoyed, especially when he saw the woman secretly give him a cunning smile, his temples began to throb with anger.
He stared at the woman and said, “You’d better explain the whole thing clearly today, otherwise, I won’t let you off!”
But the woman now had the upper hand and was not afraid of Wu Tian.
She feigned fear and trembled, saying, “Did you all hear that? He’s going to retaliate against me!”
“Why is my life so bitter? Tell me, what should I do!”
The crowd was being manipulated by the woman, and for a moment, all sorts of unpleasant words were directed at Wu Tian.
Wu Tian was agitated. He knew that in such a situation, he couldn’t rely on words alone; he needed concrete evidence.
But earlier, there were only him and the woman in the shop, so how could evidence be easily found?
Wu Tian looked around, trying to find a way to clear his name.
At this moment, an item within his line of sight suddenly caught his attention!
He was startled, and then his thoughts suddenly cleared.
There was a way!
Thinking of this, he immediately pointed at the camera on the wall and said, “There’s surveillance here, so to see if I did anything to her, why don’t we just watch the footage?”
Upon hearing this, the woman’s face immediately stiffened.
