"Miss Ruan, are you suggesting that I raised diseased pigs outside? Is this epidemic caused by those dead pigs?"
The moment this was said, there was an uproar among the bystanders.
People began to discuss: "No wonder the epidemic spread so quickly, it was the diseased pigs, once the floodwaters recede, won't it infect people?!"
"Miss Ruan, what's the deal with those diseased pigs?"
Upon others' inquiries, Lu Dalang began to shout loudly again.
"I'm innocent, Miss Ruan! Everyone knows, the only pig farm in all of Wuheng City is yours, how could I possibly have the capability to raise diseased pigs?"
"You shouldn't falsely accuse me just because my family all died, and I no longer work at your pig farm!"
He cried out pitiably, with just a few words shifting the blame onto Ruan Mian.
Fearing others might not believe him, he was quick to proclaim his innocence while playing the victim.
