When this statement came out, it immediately blew up online .
By now, everyone posting in the thread seemed to have taken sides, and were either believers or skeptics of Wei Mingyan, endlessly arguing with each other .
Wei Mingyan’s roommates could only watch this development for a long time, remaining dumbfounded throughout .
Earlier, they were starting to get worried that they would lose control of the narrative . Suddenly, they unexpectedly received good information from an unknown source .
“Old Three, do you think this was sent by Mingyan?”
“It’s hard to say . I’ll call him and ask . ”
After the phone call finally ended, Old Three explained Wei Mingyan admitted that the news was true .
“My Dad has been saving money all these years, but I haven’t been spending it . Every once in a while, we donate out one after another . However, I didn’t tell anyone about it, and I don’t know who broke the news . ”
Perhaps, this is the legendary moment of a good man getting what he deserves?
While Father Wei was struggling to find someone to help, a war of words waged on the Internet .
Finally, the orphanage decided to announce the donations they received from Wei Mingyan .
Since last year, they have received donations every single month without fail .
After learning of this, some people began to turn their backs, and some others still refused to believe that Wei Mingyan was really so kind .
[If he is really a rich second generation, how could he donate only that much money every month? . His family has such a big restaurant . It took him this long to donate 100,000 yuan? How dare he!]
Once these words came out, the water army that was paid to smear Wei Mingyan were the ones who had a headache .
(TNote: reminder– water army = paid commenter/posters, usually paid to direct the tide of opinion online . )
This commenter probably wasn’t sent by the other party to pretend to be his hater, as he must have a screw loose to say such words to smear Wei Mingyan with .
Sure enough, more people began to stand up for Wei Mingyan in response .
[Hey man, how much money have you donated? What face do you have to say here that people donate less when you’re a person who may not even have a pair of pants to donate out?]
[If people have money they saved, it is also their own . What right do you have to tell them to donate more money? Your face must be as wide as a big plate!]
(TNote: face = pride/ arrogant-ness/ respect . Having too big of a face = thinking you’re a big shot . )
That person was similar to the one who used to bark at Wei Mingyan . They were all too dumb to understand human words .
[‘Those who can, should do more . ’ Have you not heard of it? He earns so much and donates so little money, how dare he say he is doing charity!]
(TNote: Those who can, work more = abler people do more work (idiom); It is because you are so capable that we (or they) leave everything to you . )
Surprisingly, there were quite a number of people who held this attitude online .
[Since they made a show of doing charity, let’s be honest . The money may be a lot for ordinary people, but for Wei Mingyan, it’s just the same money he spends on brand name items . ]
[Really, the richer you are, the stingier you are . And he still had the nerve to use this to whitewash his lack of respect for his mother . ]
Wang Cao was one of those who made such remarks .
He was an ordinary supermarket employee . He goes to work early every morning, and he isn’t allowed any days off . Sometimes, he even works overtime until dawn to order goods . Even with that, his salary wasn’t much higher .
With a wife and a daughter to care for, Wang Cao was an ordinary middle-aged married man . But the hard job and family pressure made his whole mindset different .
For stress relief, he likes to surf the Internet and wander around on Weibo . When he sees the rich second generations show off, he couldn’t help but let off steam onto them . In Wang Cao’s eyes, these rich second generations just rely on their good birth to live well . He thought, if they really tried, they would definitely be inferior to him .
This time, Wei Mingyan’s incident caught Wang Cao’s eye, but it was due to him being unfilial to his mother, Ding Luxin . Since his father died when he was young, he was raised by his old mother . He was deeply filial to her and despised those who weren’t filial to their elders from the bottom of his heart .
With this concept in mind, Wang Cao ran to find Wei Mingyan’s microblog and scolded him . He didn’t believe in any of the excellent grades that he received, the modest clothing he wore, or the donations he made to the orphanage .
How can a person who isn’t filial to his own mother, the person who gave birth to him, still donate money? He doesn’t believe in the certificate issued by the orphanage, thinking surely, it must have been bought .

That’s how convinced he was of himself, especially when he saw the internet broke the news that Wei Mingyan called his dad for money and asked for 200,000 yuan once . He merely scoffed at Wei Mingyan for it .
Sure enough, he did not donate any money, but he definitely squandered it .
These rich second generations, they were all cheaters in his eyes .
This incident was full of twists and turns, and both mother and son had their own arguments in the fight, causing a lot of commotion . Over time, the media began to pay more and more attention to it .
Right now, it seems that Wei Mingyan was on the losing end . Funny enough, it was because of the 200,000 yuan incident . When he called Father Wei for it, there were many people in the kitchen at that time, and thus it was established as true .
Although it was his own business how much money he was willing to donate, there were still some people who had a problem with Wei Mingyan because of this incident .
As expected, Father Wei was anxious to declare that the money was for treating Grandma Xuan, but was persuaded otherwise by Wei Mingyan .
“Dad, don’t go declaring it yet . Leave this matter to me, okay?”
Father Wei looked at his son hesitantly and finally nodded .
Wei Mingyan was waiting, waiting for his so-called mother to play her next hand .
Ding Luxin really fell for it and posted another video .
She was still the same way as before, crying pitifully and helplessly . “I really do not know why he wants to blacken me . Even if I was forced to leave him, at the very least, I am his mother . He didn’t listen to me when he was a child . I didn’t expect that now he…”
This time, it was a reporter’s interview . The middle-aged reporter asked with a serious expression, “What kind of person do you think your son is?”
When Ding Luxin choked, it seemed that the words agreed before wasn’t this, but it was a live broadcast now, and her husband isn’t around, so she can’t help it .
“This child liked to spend money when he was a child, and his character was violent . In fact, I am not very surprised that he asked for 200,000 yuan from his Dad . He doesn’t respect me very much…”
Xuan Lele saw the live broadcast, in which Ding Luxin belittled her son from head to toe, and used it to establish the ‘helpless mother’ image .
She was so angry that she couldn’t wait to jump into the screen and beat up the woman .
After watching it, she quickly stopped the car and rushed to the place where Wei Mingyan lived .

“Mingyan, are you okay?”
As soon as the door was opened, Xuan Lele rushed to her boyfriend, reached out her arms, and hugged him tightly .
“I’m okay . ”
Wei Mingyan’s voice was calm, and in fact, he smiled . He held out his hand and touched his girlfriend’s hair . In a gentle tone, he said, “Don’t worry, I don’t consider her as my mother anymore . ”
How can you be sad for an unrelated person?
He has been holding back, waiting for Ding Luxin’s statement .
Since ancient times, filial piety has always been a priority in China . If Ding Luxin doesn’t stand up and belittle him first, no matter how logical he was, some people would think ‘this son is too aggressive’ .
But now it was different . Who made Ding Luxin so stupid?
Just a few hours after Ding Luxin sent this video, more and more people came forward to help Wei Mingyan out of their initiative .
First, it was the old neighbors that witnessed the marriage between Ding Luxin and Father Wei .
“Mingyan, that kid didn’t like talking when he was a child, was always sullen, and didn’t play with other children, but he was really good . He wasn’t as disobedient and irritable as Ding Luxin said . I still remember how Old Wei went to work at that time, and Ding Luxin locked him at home and went to play mahjong by herself . All the neighbors in the street know this . ”
“Yes, it was a hot day, and there was no air conditioning at that time . The child was locked up at home for a whole day . I also watched the video on the Internet . How could this mother be so cruel? To fabricate this story about her own child…”
Then the camera turned and went to Wei Mingyan’s school .
“Wei Mingyan, in my impression, has a good relationship with his girlfriend . The two are always together, and their grades are also very good . His clothes are similar to those we wear, and he doesn’t use any luxury goods . His girlfriend also wears quite normal clothes . ”
“Car? He has a car, but it was only recently bought . I have been his classmate for so long, and he didn’t even have a bicycle before . He really looked like a very simple person . If it weren’t for this news, I myself and the people around me would never have known that he was a rich second generation . ”
Then, the reporter interviewed Wei Mingyan’s teacher .
“Wei Mingyan impresses me deeply . He is a very simple young man . I met him several times in the canteen, and he would be eating steamed bread and millet porridge every time . He also usually greets people with a smile . I used to wonder why he didn’t apply for subsidies…”

After a round of interviews, all the people contacted only had good things to say about him . If it weren’t for the live broadcast, the audience would think that they were all commissioned .
“About the donation, I came up with it by chance . At that time, I only knew of two places, school and home . Maybe, I still wanted to exercise myself, I started working part-time and donated all the money I could earn . ”
“My diet is actually not as bad as everyone says . I just have little interest in eating and drinking . Eating is to fill my stomach . Eating roast chicken is eating, eating steamed buns is also eating, and it is easier to eat steamed bread . ”
“Then why did you open a live broadcast channel?”
“Maybe, it’s because my girlfriend is different from me . I am too lazy to make those expensive foods . She doesn’t want to eat any . I haven’t told anyone about my family . When she saw me eating steamed bread every day, she thought I was so poor . Then, she saved money and gave me food every day . Later, I really didn’t know how to tell her about myself, so I had to cook every day . Then, we started eating together, and when I watched her eat so happily, I was also very happy . ”
The handsome young man in the camera thought for a moment and continued, “And about people on the internet saying I donate less money than I can . I have already donated all the money I earned, and all the money my Dad gave me has been deposited away . For donations, I have to donate my own money . Otherwise, if I take the money given by others to donate, then what would be the meaning of me donating it?”
“May I ask, can you reveal why you asked your father for 200,000 yuan, all in one go? What did you use this money for?”
The man who had been calmly answering the reporter’s questions had a look on his face and showed some difficulty in his eyes, “Sorry, I’m not at liberty to answer this question . ”
The interview ended, and almost everyone paid attention to the last question that Wei Mingyan didn’t answer .
His mother then later said that the money must have been squandered away, but Wei Mingyan only kept his mouth shut . Everyone wondered, what is the truth?
‘I Love Voices’ was a loyal fan of Wei Mingyan . She was angry when she saw the malicious speculations on the internet . It was simply infuriating .
She really didn’t know why there was such a vicious mother in the world . Did she have to stomp her son into the mud before she was satisfied?!
At this time, Xuan Lele started a live broadcast .
“The 200,000-yuan Mingyan borrowed from his father was to treat my grandmother . The hospital should be able to give proof . He didn’t say it because he didn’t want me to suffer all this cyberbullying like him . ”
“You say he isn’t filial to his mother, but look at the words his mother used to demean him . Is such a person really worthy of being called a mother?”
At the same time, the internet began to publicize that records of Ding Luxin’s case did remain in the police station all this time .
There was also proof that she had been beaten and injured by the wife of a customer she had solicited .
To top things off, there was a sentence at the end of the publicization . Ding Luxin’s current husband was exposed by his mistress as having violent tendencies .
Ding Luxin was finished .
