When Wang Aiguo said this, everyone present suddenly fell silent.

They were just there to watch the fun, but somehow it turned into a situation where they had to give statements. Some people who didn't want to get involved quietly left.

This incident immediately reduced the number of onlookers by more than half. The remaining people stayed there, some wanting to watch the excitement, and others genuinely interested in giving their statements.

The two waiters were also embarrassed. They were about to say something, but before they could speak, Wang Aiguo shut them down with "Wait for the police to come."

Fifteen minutes later, the police officers arrived, along with the legal team that Wang Aiguo had found nearby.

The lawyer didn't come alone, but as a team of six.

"Hello, is this Mr. Wang? What's the situation on your end?"

"Oh, it's like this, two of my employees came here to buy clothes, and then a cell phone went missing from the counter. After that, two other employees in the store started staring at my employees, insisting that they stole it, but they couldn't produce any evidence. I called you over because I think they're falsely accusing my employees."

After Wang Aiguo finished speaking, the members of the legal team were also shocked. After a while, a young lawyer wearing black-rimmed glasses asked a question.

"Let me make this clear first, you won't get much compensation for this kind of false accusation. But the lawyer's fees can't be reduced by a single penny!"

"Money is not the issue. I just want to stand up for my employees. I believe it was definitely not those two who stole it."

Wang Aiguo spoke casually, but Ye Liangliang and Li Wenwen, standing behind him, felt a warmth in their hearts. They hadn't expected that Wang Aiguo would still firmly believe in them at this moment.

The police quickly began their investigation.

At first, the two shop assistants were quite arrogant because the place where the phone fell was a blind spot for the security cameras. But Wang Aiguo quickly suggested that they could go to the shop across the street, where the security cameras could cover part of the blind spot.

As soon as Wang Aiguo said that, the police officers immediately went to the shop across the street to check the surveillance footage.

The young shop assistant panicked the moment the police checked the surveillance footage.

"Don't go, don't go. I'll explain the situation now. Does that count as turning myself in?"

Upon hearing this, the police officer immediately looked at her with suspicion.

"What happened?"

"I...I...actually, I accidentally broke that phone. Since it's store property, I was afraid of having to pay for it, so I threw it in the trash and then said those two stole it!"

After speaking, the young female shop assistant looked at Wang Aiguo.

"I'm sorry, sir, I was wrong, I know I was wrong, please let me go."

After saying this, the female shop assistant immediately knelt down. Seeing this, the customers who were acting as witnesses also spoke up in hushed tones.

"Forget it, she's quite pitiful too. Let's be forgiving."

"Yeah, yeah, anyway, there's no real loss."

Hearing what everyone around them was saying, Ye Liangliang and Li Wenwen recovered from their fright and went to Wang Aiguo's side.

"Boss, how about we just leave it at that?"

Looking at the two women, Wang Aiguo didn't say anything, but turned to look at the shop assistant and the surrounding customers.

"Oh, oh, oh, you've all played the good guys, and I'll play the bad guy, huh? Well then, let me ask you, while you pity this shop assistant, has anyone ever pitied my employees? They've been unfairly branded as thieves, and if I hadn't come today and investigated, they would have carried this stigma forever."

When you were pointing fingers at those two little girls, did you ever consider that they were innocent as well?

When Wang Aiguo spoke, everyone in the room fell silent.

Then, Wang Aiguo looked at the police.

"Excuse me, officers, but please submit today's enforcement record to my lawyer. I will not let these two get away with this. They have caused serious reputational damage and emotional distress to my employee."

More than just compensation, I need a public apology from them. I don't care how much it costs; I just want justice for my employees.

The police officer nodded after hearing what Wang Aiguo said.

"No problem. If you're not afraid of spending the money, we can submit this evidence to your lawyer."

"What about these people? They were also involved in the defamation and slander. Can I sue them as well?"

Upon hearing this, the onlookers who remained panicked and quickly fled. The few remaining people raised their hands and spoke to Wang Aiguo.

"Sir, we didn't participate in the defamation. We stayed to testify for you. We can prove that it was these two employees who defamed these two young ladies!"

At the shout, the two tellers' faces stiffened even more. The younger teller had already slumped to the ground. She hadn't expected her casual remark to have such a big impact, nor had she expected anyone to actually stand up for Li Wenwen and Ye Liangliang. She knew these two people and knew they were poor, which was why she had deliberately bullied them.

She never expected that Ye Liangliang and Li Wenwen would encounter Wang Aiguo, a man who was not short of money and liked to take things seriously, even if it cost money, he would still make a fuss about it.

Thinking of this, the young teller scrambled to Wang Aiguo's feet and cried out in anguish.

"Please, sir, let me go! I really didn't mean to!"

"What a joke! You didn't do it on purpose? You're framing my two employees. You were the one who dropped it and threw it in the trash can, and you're saying they stole it? That's not intentional? Just because they're dressed shabbily and their attire is a little unprofessional, you assume they're bad people and want to throw dirty water on them. And that's what you call not intentional?"

You're deliberately framing them, you're deliberately ruining their reputation, thinking they're poor and that you're bullying them because they have no connections, right?

Now you know to beg for mercy? Where did all that arguing go? Is this what you call regret? You just know you're finished! I'll tell you straight, I'm not afraid to spend money, I'll spend whatever it takes, but I'm going to leave a stain on your record so you'll know that falsely accusing others comes at a price.

After speaking, Wang Aiguo walked towards his lawyer, and the police had no objections. Since Wang Aiguo had even called a lawyer, it wouldn't be appropriate for them to take sides. The lawyers were also happy; if Wang Aiguo was willing to spend money, that was fine with them.

The lawyer's fees were actually quite expensive, amounting to six thousand yuan, twice the price of the lost phone, but Wang Aiguo didn't care.

The moment Wang Aiguo transferred the money to the lawyer, Ye Liangliang and Li Wenwen's eyes lit up. At that moment, they had only one feeling: Wang Aiguo was incredibly cool!

After the matter was resolved, Wang Aiguo led the two women out of the clothing store. But as soon as they stepped outside, Ye Liangliang and Li Wenwen, without a second thought, each grabbed one of Wang Aiguo's hands and then leaped to kiss him on both cheeks.

"Boss, let me tell you the truth, my idol used to be Wang Jia'er, but now my idol is you!"

"Me too! I used to like Zhang Ling and Brother Wang, but now I like you. You're Brother Wang Aiguo!"
