Chapter 1125: Sudden Paparazzi
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The little milk cat was properly treated.
However, the doctor said that its blinded eye and hind leg disability could not be restored for life.
He suggested to them. “Its internal organs are also damaged. This cat will only suffer if it continues to live, why not give it euthanasia?”
Xia Ling was very upset. She stared at the little cat lying on the white cloth and couldn’t bear for it to leave. “Is there no other way?” she asked the doctor unwillingly.
The doctor shook his head regretfully.
The old grandma was also very upset, but she regained her senses and agreed to the doctor’s euthanasia.
Not long after the injection of a tube of medicament, its weak and shallow breathing stopped and its small body stiffened a little. Xia Ling wrapped it in a cloth and made a simple coffin for it. Life was so fragile and it was so easy to die in suffering. She looked at it for a long time and said, “I will avenge you.”
The old grandma was as sad as she was, but when she heard this, she was shocked. “What are you going to do?”
Xia Ling said, “There is always a way to punish them. I’ll try to call the police first.”
“It’s useless.” The old grandma has been raising cats for so many years and had heard many rumors about cat abuse. “The law is only for humans, they don’t care about animal cruelty. I’ve heard of someone reporting to the police before, but they didn’t care.”
Xia Ling was silent. Did she have to let the two people walk free?
“They will abuse and kill more cats,” Xia Ling said. “I can’t sit back and watch.”
She went home with her grandma and didn’t talk for a whole afternoon. The grandma looked at her worriedly, but couldn’t think of anything reassuring to say. Even when eating dinner, Xia Ling was very quiet.
The next day, her eyes finally regained spirit. “Grandma, I’ve thought of it. Tomorrow, I’ll find Li Lei and get him to continue my career. Then, once I have money, I’ll hire a private detective to check the background of those people first, then find a way to punish them!” If she was just a civilian, she might be helpless, but as long as she restored the glory of her superstar days, she would have money to make the Devil turn millstones and could find a way.
Grandma saw that she had finally regained her spirits and was very happy. “Okay, you have to be careful.”
The idea was set, and she busied herself helping the grandma to take care of the cats in the house so that things could be well organized when she left tomorrow and the grandma wouldn’t be too busy.
Suddenly, there was a loud commotion outside the door.
Xia Ling was afraid of the noise and said, “What is going on outside, why is it so noisy?”
The old grandma rubbed her hands. “I’ll go outside and see.”
She opened the door and hadn’t even responded to what was going on when she heard a loud noise and several people rushed to the outside of the security iron door. “Is this where Xia Ling lives? Hello, is Xia Ling home? What do you think about the news of her abusing cats?”
The grandma was frightened and closed the door in a reflexive manner.
Outside, the noise was getting louder, and the people’s voices could be heard faintly. “Miss Xia Ling, we know you are inside, open the door, open the door! Why did you abuse the cats? Do you usually have this hobby? Did you join any cat abuse organization? Miss Xia Ling, Xia Ling!”
Xia Ling was also shocked by these voices and her face turned pale. “What happened?”
The old grandma shook her head and returned to the living room. “I don’t know, Xiao Ling. I think they’re here to find you?”
Xia Ling put down the little white cat on her knees and walked to the door and looked out through the blinds. “There’s so many paparazzi, they’re probably here to find me.” Ever since she had stayed here, she had found the right time to tell the old grandma her true identity, that she was a famous big star. The old grandma was not in the least bit surprised, and was even more doting on her—to fall from such a high place, how many people could endure it?
Now, her face revealed a hint of worry when she heard Xia Ling’s words. “They said you were a cat abuser.”
“How could I be a cat abuser?” Xia Ling was surprised. “Where did they hear this rumor from, and how did they know I lived here?” She said while borrowing the grandma’s phone to search for “Xia Ling, Cat Abuser” keywords. Many news came out as well as a shocking picture.
In the photo, she stood in front of a minivan, holding a small milk cat with its eyes broken and its legs bloody, staining her hands red. She was looking down at it and her expression was so scary. There was a text next to the photo, saying someone had seen someone abusing a cat unintentionally in the neighborhood and it looked like the superstar Xia Ling, so he had taken a picture in shock and uploaded it for people to recognize her.
There were a lot of hot discussions on the Internet. Some people didn’t believe it, and some even said it was photoshopped. However, countless people also scolded Xia Ling madly, saying she was snake-hearted, insidious and cruel.
Xia Ling looked at it in a daze. “I was framed!”
This was the picture of the day she had grabbed the little cat from the cat abusers. How could she be the cat abuser?!
The grandma also came together and said with anger, “It must have been the group of people who came to adopt the cats. You saved a few of their cats and they wanted to take revenge! They’re really mad!”
Xia Ling was furious. “How dare they!”
Her blood was boiling, and she couldn’t think so much. She rushed over and opened the door. “I’m not a cat abuser!” She glared angrily at the paparazzi outside.
In an instant, the shutter sounds and flashes lit up.
“Xia Ling! It’s Xia Ling!”
“Miss Xia Ling, why did you abuse the cats?”
“Miss Xia Ling, why are you living here?”
“Miss Xia Ling, didn’t you say you were sick? What have you been doing?”
A series of questions were shouted and almost engulfed her. The anti-theft iron door gave a slamming sound as people crowded against it. If it wasn’t already locked, the paparazzi would have already rushed into the house.
Xia Ling was a bit stunned. When she had faced so many reporters before, she had always been followed by agents and bodyguards and she had only needed to act cold and arrogant. Chu Chen didn’t even allow the paparazzi to ask such excessive questions to her. But now? The speculations were all negative news.
But she couldn’t back down.
Xia Ling straightened her back and told the paparazzi, “I said I have never abused cats before. That picture was an accident, the person taking the pictures is the real cat abuser!”
“Miss Xia Ling, do you have any evidence?”
“Miss Xia Ling, can you give us more detail about the incident?”
“But Miss Xia Ling, the person who uploaded the photo said it’s not the first time you abused a cat...”
The questions were overwhelming and Xia Ling’s head was about to explode. She forced herself to calm down and organize her thoughts to answer them. At this moment, a middle-aged woman carrying a plastic bag squeezed forcefully through the corridor. “Move aside, move aside, who are you people, can’t you let me go home?”
