Chapter 561: Five hundred fifty-six, I’m coming to help you!

After that warning, she had not dared to make any more moves.

She feared that if she really filed a lawsuit, she might end up having to pay them.

She could no longer afford such burdens, as she had to take care of her now-disabled son.

Life was full of expenses, and she had to shoulder the responsibility of upkeeping the home all by herself.

At that moment, several nurses gave Gu Chen unfriendly looks.

One of the braver nurses even came over and said to Gu Chen, "Are you a family member of a patient in this ward? If not, please leave."

She had effectively given Gu Chen an eviction order.

Gu Chen was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, he hadn’t done anything, and yet he was met with a barrage of accusations.

Then, he slowly took out his Chuan City bank card from his pocket.

"I’ve paid for all the medical expenses for this bed," he told the nurse.

After hearing this, the nurse’s face froze, and many of those who had been vehemently criticizing Gu Chen also paused, stunned.

They didn’t understand why Gu Chen would suddenly offer to pay.

The tears of the elderly lady were instantly swallowed back.

They all looked at Gu Chen with confusion in their eyes.

Gu Chen then formally said to the elderly lady, "Ma’am, we are from the social voluntary legal aid, here to help you. We’ve heard that your child was beaten in a nightclub, and that the nightclub didn’t take responsibility, is that correct?"

He asked the elder lady in a friendly manner.

The old lady looked bewildered upon hearing this.

"Legal, legal aid?" she asked uncertainly.

"Yes, I’m here specifically to support some of the vulnerable groups in society, to help them reclaim the justice they deserve,"

Gu Chen nodded and explained to the elderly lady.

As for the legal aid he mentioned, of course, it was a fabrication on the spot.

After all, it wasn’t something anyone could easily scrutinize.

When the elderly lady heard what Gu Chen had said, the eyes that had been red from crying suddenly sparked with hope.

"Really? Are you really here to help us?" she asked, still somewhat incredulous.

"Of course, I will help you. I will find the best legal team in the country to get justice for you.

Not only will we make the wrongdoers pay a price, but we’ll also ensure they provide you with the appropriate compensation. We absolutely won’t let any ordinary person be oppressed by evil forces,"

Gu Chen kept a friendly expression on his face.

As Gu Chen finished speaking, the elderly lady could no longer contain her emotions.

"That’s great, that’s great! Heaven has eyes, at last, there’s someone to seek justice for us,"

she said as she quickly brought a chair for Gu Chen to sit on.

She also offered Gu Chen half an apple from the bedside table.

This warmth was her attempt to seize the last straw that could save her.

Gu Chen swiped the card and paid the medical bills.

It wasn’t much actually, just six thousand yuan in total.

Of course, for ordinary families like theirs, it was not a small amount.

"Can you tell me what exactly happened that day?" Gu Chen asked the young man lying in the hospital bed.

Upon hearing this, the young man began to recount to Gu Chen everything that had happened that day.

As he spoke, he even got a little emotional.

After work that day, the young man went to the nightclub with several of his coworkers.

The first half of the night was harmonious, and everyone had a great time.

But during the second half, one of his female coworkers went to the restroom and did not return for a long time.

He went to check what was the matter.

Afterward, she saw a group of men surrounding and groping her female colleague.

He was usually quite timid, but maybe the alcohol had bolstered his courage as he went straight up to intervene physically.

He grabbed an ashtray from the washbasin and smacked it over one of the guys’ heads from behind.

Then a fight broke out, and that guy had brought a lot of people with him, who beat him brutally.

At that time, one could only say he had suffered numerous superficial injuries.

But that youngster had deep ties with people in the dance hall, and had some so-called security personnel there break his leg.

He was rushed to the hospital that night where attempts at resuscitation were made.

But there was nothing to be done; the level of medical care available then simply couldn’t restore it, so his leg was effectively lost.

That wasn’t the main issue, though. The real reason they felt wronged yet helpless was that his colleagues all claimed that the incident never happened.

There was no one at the scene who could testify that he acted out of righteousness.

Not even one person saw his injuries.

Just like that, he ended up lying here without proof.

After hearing the story, Gu Chen also understood the whole affair.

He also guessed what had actually taken place that day.

It was a simple logic, nothing more than bribing those people with money.

Such incidents are all too common.

"We’re not asking for much now, we just want justice," the old lady said, listening to her son recount the incident.

As a mother, she felt an aching sorrow.

She looked at Gu Chen helplessly, seeing him as her last hope.

"I have a rough idea of the situation, can you tell me where your company is? I want to go there and talk to your colleagues to understand the matter better," Gu Chen said to him.

After hearing this, he also told Gu Chen where he worked.

Afterward, Gu Chen left the hospital room.

He had to help with this.

It wasn’t just about striking back at Liu Dahai, but really about doing something for this old lady.

Their situation was simply too dire, and Gu Chen couldn’t bear to watch.

He then drove to the workplace of the young man.

It was in a small office building.

After entering, Gu Chen surveyed the conditions inside the office building.

There weren’t many employees, just about a dozen or so.

It was a creative job, making drawing boards for children.

Gu Chen noticed that no one was paying any attention to him.

He coughed lightly.

Only then did the employees turn their gaze towards Gu Chen.

Gu Chen then directly asked them, "Excuse me, is this where Shi Tianming works?"

Shi Tianming was the young man.

Upon hearing this name, the employees all started looking at each other curiously, their eyes lingering on Gu Chen.

A few of them suddenly appeared tense on their faces.

Then a young man stood up and asked Gu Chen, "May I know who you are?"

"Me? I’m with the legal aid society. I’m here to learn about Shi Tianming’s situation."

"His case has now been taken up by us, and I’m looking for the colleagues who went with Shi Tianming to the dance hall that day."

At his words, everyone was taken aback.

Especially a few people, who were so startled they became restless in their seats.
