114 Interview
After Lu Ning rejected them a few times, she thought that this matter would really be over with this time.
She had not done anything; she could not really accept this.
However, the more she wanted it to be over, the more people began to pay attention.
For example, the school was starting to take this matter seriously.
Lu Ning: “…”
When Lu Ning saw Shen Guang arrive, she sensed that something was off.
Shen Guang, being the principal, entered first.
Perhaps because he understood Lu Ning’s personality, he gave her a look of helplessness as soon as he entered through the door, so as to let her be mentally prepared. Then, he greeted Lu Ning’s parents; before he could finish greeting them, a throng of people came in with cameras.
???
Didn’t they say that they won’t interview me?
It turned out that the media had established connections with the school, and Lu Ning was also a third-year student; in order to express their support and concern for her, the school’s teachers had also participated in this interview.
After they had spoken a whole lot, Lu Ning stated her own request up front; she would only accept it if they could fulfill it.
And the reporters accepted it.
During this period, most of the questions were answered by the school teachers. Lu Ning rarely said anything, only offering a few words when the questions were really directed at her.
At the end, the reporter in charge of questions asked Lu Ning if she had any concluding remarks.
Lu Ning fell silent. At first, they thought that she did not want to answer, but just as they were about to let it end like that, Lu Ning suddenly spoke up.
“Children are an important part of our families, and their disappearance causes their families so much dread they’d wish they were dead. This is a very heartbreaking issue. I hope that such topics won’t become the target of people who want to ride on fads in the future. If everyone truly cares, then please pay attention to any small clues around you, and provide help and support to the parents who haven’t found their children.
“The final outcome of this matter actually had little to do with me. I just happened to get hurt, so everyone looked at me and felt that I was the person they should thank the most.
“But fact is, it was all due to the decisiveness and bravery of our police officers; they were the ones who caught the bad guys, and they are the ones who should be interviewed and thanked. I was only protecting my brother and wasn’t of much help to others, so I felt guilty about this. I hope that everyone can turn their attention away from me and pay more attention to the victims’ families, and to help them reunite as soon as possible.
“Thank you.”
As she had said so much all of a sudden, these people were stunned.
Shen Guang looked at them. “Alright, that’s all for today. She’s tired.”
After exchanging a few pleasantries, those people took their things and left.
The teachers in the school helped Lu Ning draw up some study plans, and there would be teachers who would specially come to the hospital to tutor her.
Lu Ning wanted to refuse, but Shen Guang overruled it.
Eventually, the school will also post the interview and the sequence of events on the relevant campus platforms.
Lu Ning’s rejection was invalid, so she could only lie down and accept it.
Lu Ning had someone accompanying her; it was inconvenient for Shen Guang to speak, so he did not say much. After giving a few instructions, he left with his staff.
Just as Lu Ning thought that she could finally settle down, that very night, Huo Jinyan came.
When he arrived, Lu Ning was alone in the ward. Lu Zhi had gone to pick up Lu Jingzhi, Shen Yunci had gone home to get her things, and Lu Qing had gone somewhere.
Lu Ning did not know it was Huo Jinyan. At that time, she was half-kneeling on two pillows, which was rather more comfortable.
However, as she was half-kneeling she looked like she was sticking out her bottom; Huo Jinyan was rattled when he entered.
