Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“See, I knew nothing would happen.” After safely delivering Ma Ying ho, Wen Miao reached out to tidy up her collar. “Don’t be so nervous. Those people probably just saw that we’re young and wanted to scare us. You’ll be fine at ho. Tomorrow, Yueyue and I will co to pick you up again.”
“Okay.” Ma Ying, who had been tense all the way, finally relaxed her body, and a relaxed smile appeared on her face.
After bidding farewell to Wen Miao and Zhang Yue, they embarked on the journey ho together.
It was at this mont that Wen Miao’s brother finally called to apologize.
“Sorry, Miao A/liao, I was in a eting just now, and the leader suddenly asked to work overti. Are you ho now?”
Wen Miao pretended to be angry and said, “Not yet. We waited for you at the school gate for almost half an hour!”
“Sorry, sorry. I still can’t go to pick you up now. Otherwise, you can call Mom and Dad to pick you up?” Seeing that the sky outside was already dark, Wen Long was still worried about his sister’s safety.
Wen Miao heard the concern in her brother’s voice and the little anger in her heart dissipated. She smiled carelessly, “It’s okay. I’m walking ho with my classmates. Don’t worry.”
“That’s good. When you get ho, send a text ssage.” Wen Long sighed in relief, and after hanging up the phone, he continued working.
He worked late into the night, and by the ti he left the company, it was almost 9 PM.
He was starving and thinking about having a late-night snack with his colleagues when suddenly he rembered that he hadn’t received a text ssage confirming his sister’s safe arrival ho.
Wen Long felt uneasy and quickly called his sister. However, there was no answer on Wen Miao’s side.
A bad premonition arose in his heart.
Wen Long imdiately called his mother.
As soon as the call was connected, Wen Long eagerly asked, “Hey, Mom? Is Miaomiao ho?”
“Huh? 1 don’t know. Your dad and 1 are drinking at your aunt’s house and haven’t gone back yet.”
The noise in the background of Wen Long’s mother’s voice was very loud, indicating that she was attending a rather lively family gathering.
Wen Miao usually dislikes such environnts. She detests people around her drinking and smoking. She consistently refuses, using the excuse of not wanting to hinder her studies. As a result, her parents don’t insist on taking her with them.
Anyway, Wen Miao has always been an independent and self-reliant child. Even if they co ho late, she can handle dinner on her own, and they don’t need to worry about her.
Wen Long knew that he wouldn’t get any useful information by asking his mother.
He was worried and wanted to go ho imdiately to check on his sister.
“Hey, where are you going? Weren’t we supposed to have dinner together?” A colleague, seeing him make a phone call and then rush out in a hurry, asked in confusion.
Wen Long quickly turned around, waved to his colleague, and said, “Sorry, 1 suddenly have sothing to do. I need to go ho and check on my sister. I’ll treat you to dinner next ti.”
Having said that, he didn’t waste any more ti and went straight ho by taxi without even taking the subway.
By the ti he arrived ho, it was already 9:30 PM.
Upon entering the house, he found that all the lights in the room were off, and it was quiet as if no one had co back.
Wen Long, unwilling to give up, turned on the lights in the living room and heard sobbing from his sister’s room.
His heart tightened, and he rushed to open his sister’s door, only to see Wen Miao burying her head in her hands, earnestly doing her howork at the desk.
His heart, which had been hanging in suspense all the way, suddenly relaxed.
Wen Long walked lightly to his sister and said, “Why didn’t you tell when you got ho? Did you have dinner?”
If it were in the past, his sudden entry without knocking would surely receive a barrage of complaints from his sister.
But today, Wen Miao seed unusually quiet. Even though he had walked up to her, she kept her head lowered. The test paper on which her arm was pressed showed no signs of writing.
Wen Long suddenly realized that sothing was wrong. He hurriedly reached out to lift his sister’s head, ignoring her warning.
In that instant, Wen Long’s pupils contracted.
She seed to have been greatly startled, hastily retreating a considerable distance. The chair grated against the floor with a grating sound, but she acted as if she hadn’t heard it.
“Don’t co any closer.”
“Miao Miao, what’s wrong with you? Has soone bullied you?” Wen Long ignored her warning and forcefully turned her face, which she had deliberately averted.
At that mont, Wen Long’s pupils suddenly contracted.
He discovered that his sister’s face was full of bruises, tears mixed with dirty mud, turning her once youthful and beautiful face into that of a stray kitten.
Looking down, Wen Long also saw wrinkles all over his sister’s clothes, with obvious mud stains around her neck.
“Sister…” Wen Long wanted to say sothing, but his heart ached so much that he choked.
He was a man, and seeing such a situation, what else was unclear? It’s just that he never thought such a thing would happen to his sister one day.
“Who did this?” Wen Long’s voice, even he himself did not realize, was cold. He grabbed Wen Miao’s hand, forcibly lifting her from the chair.. “Co with , let’s go to the police station and report this!”
