"Ah, no, you are not my grandparents, I don't want to go with you, I want my mother, mother..."

Just as the answer was about to pop into my mind, it was interrupted by the heart-wrenching cry of a little girl.

Zhao Chuyu turned around when she heard the sound and saw an old couple forcibly dragging a little girl who looked less than three years old.

The short, hunchbacked old man had a sinister look on his face. When he saw the girl crying and refusing to cooperate, and even biting him, he felt so much pain that he slapped her hard in the face.

"A little bitch born of a cripple is just not lovable! If my son hadn't died in an accident a few days ago, without leaving any children, do you think we would want to take you away!"

The old woman with him was not tall either, and her cheeks were wrinkled and uneven like old tree bark.

She threw the little girl to the ground with a look of anger on her face. "Bah, little bitch, you are the only child of our Li family. Be smart and come back with us. In ten years, you will continue the incense of the Li family and have many branches and leaves."

The little person, who didn't understand anything yet, curled up his tiny body with a confused look in his eyes, full of fear.

The face that was hit soon became red and swollen.

She hugged a dirty doll tightly, crying out of breath, "You are bad people, I don't want to go with you, I want my mother..."

"This is not up to you, get up and go!"

"No, no..."

The little girl cried so hard that her nose was running, her eyes were red, and her voice was a little hoarse.

Under the pull of the old couple, the little hand tightly grasped the sapling in the green belt and looked helplessly at the dark road at the entrance of the park.

There were not many people here, and the little girl's crying did not attract anyone's attention.

But that tender little face filled with tears made Zhao Chuyu feel a little familiar.

She hurriedly said to Qi Jinan, who had fallen silent on the other end of the phone, "I'll come to you later." Then she hung up the phone and walked towards the "three generations of grandparents and grandchildren."

The closer I got, the clearer the girl's figure became, and the memories deposited deep in my brain came to my mind.

She blocked the way of the two short old people and just looked at the little girl who was crying so hard that she was about to faint.

"Xingxing? You didn't go to the stall with your mother today? Why did you come out alone?"

She already remembered that this was the little girl who accompanied her mother to sell fried noodles when she got off the bus at the stop before Nanjing University and met her at the intersection on the day she went to the computer city.

As I recall, Xingxing's mother had difficulty moving and had a lame right leg.

But even though life was difficult, she insisted on keeping her children by her side.

How could an elderly couple treat her daughter so rudely? What was going on?

Zhao Chuyu has never been a goody-goody who always stands up for justice, but the light in Xingxing's eyes that was about to go out touched her.

The little kid who was still crying, upon hearing the pleasant voice, immediately focused his gaze on Zhao Chuyu, his eyes, washed by tears, filled with surprise.

A child's voice with a strong crying tone was speaking and he was hiccuping.

"Pretty sister, they are bad people. They want to take me away and won't let me find my mother."

As soon as she finished speaking, the old woman glared at Xingxing fiercely and said, "You bitch, what are you talking about?"

After scolding the little girl, the old woman turned her gun towards Zhao Chuyu, "And you, vixen..."

At this time, the bodyguards who were sent to protect Lady Zhao ran out immediately, stood on both sides of her, and shouted sternly, "Don't be rude."

The two bodyguards were tall and mighty. They wanted to rebuke Zhao Chuyu and the old couple for meddling in other people's business, but they looked timid.

The old woman's words began to come out incoherently, no longer as arrogant as before, "...She...she is...our granddaughter. We want to take her home."

"Yes, this is our granddaughter." The old man standing behind the old woman spoke in agreement.

The deep-set eyes, as big as green beans, looked at Zhao Chuyu furtively again, and then were immediately frightened away by the bodyguard's majestic eyes and dared not look again.

I thought to myself: This woman seems to be of high status, will she disrupt their plans?

He began to feel uneasy and secretly winked at his wife.

The eye contact between the two made Zhao Chuyu's eyes even colder.

Without further ado, she unlocked the phone with her fingerprint and dialed the three digits "110".

"Hello, we found two child traffickers in the small park at the intersection of Yuegang Road, 300 meters away from the main entrance of the park."

Seeing that she didn't play by the rules, the old woman immediately became anxious, "Hey, what's wrong with you? I told you I'm her grandmother, not a human trafficker."

His face was visibly panicked, and his words were incoherent.

The old man had already begun to back off, pulling at her worn-out coat, "Old woman, let's go."

He never looked at Xingxing, who was still half-lying on the ground due to pain.

After Zhao Chuyu finished talking to the police, he put away his phone, said nothing more, and simply waved his hand for the bodyguards to surround them and prevent them from leaving.

The old couple was stopped and just as they were about to shout "Someone is committing a crime in the street and we want to kill people to silence them", they were quickly stopped by two bodyguards, who picked up a rag next to the trash can and stuffed it into their filthy mouths.

Then they handcuffed their hands behind their backs and forced them to squat with their heads in their hands, waiting for the police to arrive.

Even though the unpleasant insults had disappeared, Zhao Chuyu's frowning brows still did not relax.

She took two steps forward, took out a handkerchief from her shoulder bag, squatted down, reached out to help the little girl up, and gently wiped the dirt off her little face.

Because of the cold weather, Xingxing was wearing thick clothes and had no wounds on his body. However, he was thrown and hit so hard that it must have been painful.

Zhao Chuyu wiped away the tears on the little girl's face bit by bit.

She also comforted him softly, "Xingxing, does it hurt anywhere else?"

This was the first time that Xingxing was treated so gently by someone other than her mother.

The tears have stopped.

She shook her head with red eyes, "Pretty sister, I'm not in pain, can you take me to find my mother?"

In her heart, her mother is her only safe haven, and she just wants to find the mother who gives her a sense of security every moment.

Zhao Chuyu hid the coldness in his eyes and chuckled softly, "Xingxing, we have to wait here for the police uncles to come and arrest the bad guys."

She didn't have Xingxing's mother's contact information, so even if she wanted to take her to find her mother, she couldn't help, so she could only wait for the police to arrive.

As for whether the old couple are Xingxing’s grandparents, the police will find out once they investigate.

She brushed off the dust on Xingxing's body, and they sat on the bench together, chatting and telling stories to dispel the little girl's fear.

The police were very quick in their response. Within five minutes of the call, a team of people in police uniforms came walking quickly towards us.

At the same time, Zheng Zhi, who has been inseparable from Qi Jinan for many years, also ran in with a team of bodyguards.

He nodded to Zhao Chuyu, who had a doubtful look in his eyes, and took the initiative to negotiate.

"Hello, Captain Tan. I'm Zheng Zhi, assistant to the president of Saint Ann Group. I've already called Director Zhang to talk about this matter. Our Fifth Master doesn't want his wife to be involved. If you need any testimony, please contact me."

As he said this, he handed over a business card.

Team Leader Tan glanced at Zhao Chuyu who was protected by bodyguards, took the business card handed over by Zheng Zhi, and nodded solemnly, "Okay, I understand."

The bodyguard then handed the old couple over to the police, along with the little girl with timid eyes.

Zhao Chuyu couldn't bear to see her frightened, so he half-knelt and told her before the bodyguard took her away and handed her over to the police.

"Xingxing, the police will help you find your mother. You can trust them."

Xingxing hesitated for a while and asked, "Well, thank you, pretty sister. Can I see you again in the future?"

Due to the cruelty of life, she, at such a young age, already knows many things that she is not supposed to understand at her age.

Zhao Chuyu reached out and touched her head. "We'll meet again if we're destined to. From now on, you must stay by your mother's side and don't run around."

"Yeah, next time mom doesn't feel well and goes to the doctor, I'll call grandma and won't run out alone."
