Chapter 365: Chapter 255: Catch the Human Trafficker!_2

Could it be his painting?

Thankfully, Song Yanchu didn’t seem like the type to be harsh, aloof, and nitpicky; otherwise, her daughter’s off-the-cuff, nonsensical interpretation of ‘a black-bone chicken taking to the sea’ would have been asking for a scolding.

After adding each other on WeChat, Tang Xi left the ergency room.

In the air, amidst the faint scent of disinfectant, lingered a subtle fragrance. Song Yanchu watched Tang Xi’s departing figure until she was out of sight before he withdrew his gaze. He gripped his phone tighter and opened the woman’s WeChat Monts.

They displayed only the last three days.

The elderly lady coughed, and Song Yanchu supported her, “Grandma, how are you feeling now? I’ll take you back to the old house first.”

“Yanchu, do you know that female doctor we just t?”

“She ca with her child yesterday to see the youth art exhibition my school hosted.”

“She really has a child… Well, that’s not a problem,” the elderly lady muttered to herself.

“What did you say, Grandma? Are your legs uncomfortable?”

“This little Doctor Tang, she has a child? Is it a boy or a girl? Do you know anything about her family situation?” The elderly lady bombarded Song Yanchu with questions, holding onto him.

Carrying the elderly lady to the car, Song Yanchu said, “Grandma, what are you talking about? I’ve barely t Dr. Tang a few tis, how could I know that much? Besides, that’s her privacy.”

But thinking of her daughter Tangtang, Song Yanchu smiled, “Her child is indeed very cute and talented. Having t her once, I think her daughter would be a great fit for my painting class.”

The elderly lady frowned, “Is it just because you think her daughter has a talent for painting that you want to contact her?”

“What else?” Song Yanchu started the car, “I’ll take you back to the old house first. You should rest well at ho for these next few days, and I’ll visit you every day.”

The elderly lady wasn’t convinced at all.

She had two grandsons, and Song Yanchu was the one she saw grow up. He was her darling, and now at 30, he still hadn’t settled down with a woman, which made her, as a grandmother, anxious.

Many well-born young ladies had been introduced to him by the family, and although he had t with each one, he always found them unsuitable.

“I think that Doctor Tang Xi seems like a nice person; she has a good temperant and is also pretty.”

Driving the car, Song Yanchu pursed his lips slightly upon hearing this and murmured the na.

Tang Xi.

So her na is Tang Xi.

“Previously, when the family arranged for you to et Miss Gao Youhan from the Gao Family, you used the art exhibition as an excuse and postponed it. Recently, Mrs. Gao contacted again. Let’s set a date for tomorrow; you should have a proper chat with Gao Youhan.”

“I am not interested in Miss Gao, Grandma, don’t worry about it.”

“I’ve already arranged it, you should get to know her first tomorrow. If it doesn’t work out, then we can talk,” the elderly lady imdiately clutched her chest, “Oh my, my blood pressure is rising.”

Sighing, Song Yanchu knew well that his grandmother was feigning illness before him, but he could only nod in agreent, “Alright, just this once.”

After sending his grandmother ho, Song Yanchu took out his phone, hesitated for a mont, and drafted a WeChat ssage to Tang Xi, “Dr. Tang, thank you for today, my grandma is feeling much better now. I’d like to invite you to a al soti.”

But he didn’t send the ssage. Instead, he deleted it promptly and edited a new one.

“Miss Tang, could I have a look at the paintings Tangtang usually does? Tangtang is a child with a great talent for art; she will surely be outstanding in the future.”

After sending that ssage, he waited for Tang Xi’s reply.

But the ssage sank like a stone in the sea, with no response from the other end for over ten minutes.

Tang Xi’s phone was out of battery. It wasn’t until that evening, after recharging at ho, that she saw the ssage from Song Yanchu.

She imdiately replied.

“I’m sorry, Teacher Song, I just saw your ssage. I’ll take so pictures for you right now.” She took a few snapshots of the cartoon drawings Tangtang had casually made.

After sending them, as Song Yanchu didn’t reply, she stood up and went to the kitchen to cook.

“Tangtang, what would you like to eat tonight? Mommy will cook for you tonight since Aunt Su isn’t here.”

Tangtang was watching a cartoon in the living room, “Then I want… tomato and egg noodles.”

Tang Xi opened the fridge, “Sure, but we’re out of tomato sauce.”

Tangtang ca over, “I’ll go buy so.”

There was a small supermarket right at the entrance of the residential complex.

Tangtang had gone there a few tis before to buy snacks, so Tang Xi reassuredly nodded her head.

She put a hat on the little girl and gave her 20 yuan, instructing her to buy so candy for herself as well.

Tangtang ran all the way to the supermarket, bought a bottle of tomato sauce, and also picked out a lollipop.

The kind store clerk even helped peel the candy wrapper for her, and Tangtang politely thanked him.

Knowing that Tang Xi was waiting to use the tomato sauce for cooking, she didn’t dawdle and imdiately headed back ho.

Suddenly, a large black dog rushed towards her.

Tangtang was startled.

“Ah—”

The girl’s voice trembled, “Don’t co closer.”

This black dog belonged to an old man in the neighborhood. She had seen it several tis before, but it always liked to pounce on people.

Tangtang was very scared, and she moved away slowly, trying to avoid it.

But the black dog still pounced towards the girl.

Frightened, Tangtang closed her eyes and began to cry.

At that mont, a man walked over and picked her up.

His gaze was cold, he scolded the black dog in front of him and gave it a kick.

Tangtang opened her eyes to find herself being held in soone’s arms.

She choked back a sob and said very politely, “Thank you… Thank you, Uncle.”

Fu Tingzhou set the girl down.

Suddenly, the man’s gaze fixed, and he stared intently at the girl’s face.

He grabbed Tangtang’s wrist abruptly, his voice trembling.

“What is your na, where do you live, who are your parents?”

Tangtang was taken aback.

She was very grateful to the uncle in front of her at first. The uncle had saved her, helped her drive away the big black dog, and he was very handso.

But now, this uncle had frightened her.

This uncle was very strange.

He seed like the human trafficker that her teachers talked about at school.

He was inquiring about her family situation, and Tangtang imdiately beca alert.

Her mind raced with thoughts of what to do! What to do!

How to escape from this strange uncle’s grasp.

Wuwuwu, she wanted to find her mother.

The little girl was extrely frightened.

Her face was pale, and her eyes were red.

Fu Tingzhou also realized that he had gotten too excited and had scared the child.

But this girl, her features, were too…

Too familiar.

They bore a resemblance to himself.

He slowly let go of her hand and touched the girl’s hair, “Uncle… Uncle is not a bad person, can you tell Uncle your na?”

Tangtang trembled, “I… my na is… my na is Tang… lit… little…”

Suddenly, Tangtang saw a familiar figure, it was Grandpa An, the owner of the big black dog, and she imdiately shouted, “Grandpa An!”

She was usually scared of the big black dog and even more of the fierce-looking Grandpa An.

But now, Grandpa An’s fierce deanor made her feel exceptionally dear.

Grandpa An ca over, leading the dog, which kept barking at Fu Tingzhou.

Tangtang imdiately cried out, “Grandpa An, this uncle is a human trafficker, a bad guy!!”

Fu Tingzhou was stunned for a mont.

Almost instinctively, he rebutted, “I am not.”

Upon hearing this, Grandpa An rushed over at once, taking hold of Tangtang to protect her. He looked at the man in front of him, “Don’t be scared, girl, Grandpa is here. I’m going to call the police right now, and the police uncle will take care of the bad guy!” Then, he shouted loudly to the people around, “There’s a human trafficker in our neighborhood!! Everybody co here!”

At this point, there were a few neighbors strolling and enjoying the cool evening in the area.

Now, they all gathered around, and everyone was full of righteous indignation.

Fu Tingzhou furrowed his brow and, despite his usual indifference and reluctance to explain, he couldn’t help but say, “I’m not a human trafficker, you’re misunderstanding!”

“Look at you, all dressed up yet daring to co here and kidnap a child!! This is too despicable!!”

“Human traffickers deserve to die!! Call the police imdiately.”

“Everyone, surround him, don’t let him get away!! Does he have accomplices? Catch them all!”
