As Lu Miao took a few steps forward, she noticed an elderly woman collapsing unconscious by the side of the road. People around were pointing and discussing the situation but hesitated to approach, fearing they would be framed for causing the incident.
After all, in this day and age, even offering help required considering the potential legal consequences.
As Lu Miao approached, maneuvering through the crowd, a young man reached out and grabbed her arm. "Don't help her. You might end up being falsely accused later."
"Yeah, last year, my family member helped an old man on the road, and the man insisted that he was hit by him. There was no surveillance footage to prove otherwise, and he ended up paying several thousand yuan in compensation," another woman chimed in, offering her support.
