n“This is our family’s business. It has nothing to do with you. Get out of my house. Our family doesn’t welcome you. Aunt Wu, send the guests out!”

n

nMr. Yan felt a little embarrassed. If word got out that he had treated Yan Xiaoju this way, many people would laugh at him.

n

nAfter all, this was not a glorious matter. If his wife and Yan Jiaoyue had not made this request, he would not have agreed to it even if he was afraid that Yan Xiaoju would secretly run back to school.

n

nNow that he was seen by others, he felt his face burning up. In particular, Mr. Lin’s righteous words made him feel even more ashamed.

n

nYan Jiaoyue was frustrated. This was all Yan Xiaoju’s fault. Why did she have to be so annoying? She insisted on going to Hongfeng for an interview. If she had not gone, she would not have caused so much trouble. After so many days at home, she would not have caused so much trouble.

n

nIt was all because Yan Xiaoju was not sensible and always made her stepmother angry.

n

nAunt Wu saw that the matter had blown up and she could not help Yan Xiaoju now. She could only go forward and urge Gu Qingchen and the others to leave quickly.

n

nHowever, without Gu Qingchen’s order, Little Bean and Xiang Yang naturally would not leave. Thus, both sides fell into a stalemate.

n

n“Aunt Wu, call the police. I don’t believe it. It’s their fault!”

n

nYan Jiaoyue glared at these people. When Gu Qingchen grabbed her, a lot of her hair fell off. Her heart ached.

n

n“Nonsense. This is none of your business. Go away!”

n

nAt this moment, Mr. Yan actually yelled at Yan Jiaoyue. Yan Jiaoyue was completely stunned. Her father had never spoken loudly to her since she was young. Today, he actually yelled at her for Yan Xiaoju and Gu Qingchen.

n

nYan Jiaoyue’s heart was full of grievance. She did not think why her father yelled at her. Mr. Yan was worried that the police would really come. When the police officers saw they locked Yan Xiaoju up, they might really be taken to the police station. When that time came, the matter would be blown up.

n

nSometimes, what one was afraid of, would come.

n

nBecause the neighbors had called the police, the nearby police quickly rushed over and directly entered the Yan residence.

n

nWhen Yan Jiaoyue saw the police officers, her eyes immediately lit up. She rushed up and cried at the police officers. As she cried, she pointed at Yan Xiaoju’s room.

n

n“Police officers, you came just in time. There were robbers in our house. It was them. They barged into our house in the middle of the night and even attacked us. Quickly arrest these people!”

n

nYan Jiaoyue looked like a pear blossom in the rain. When the police saw her, their hearts softened. They looked at Little Bean and the others.

n

n“Who are you people? Take out your ID cards now! You’re really bold to break into other’s house in the middle of the night. Do you all really like to go into jail?”

n

nSeeing the police speak up for her, Yan Jiaoyue’s mood immediately improved.

n

nGu Qingchen had just taken out the rag that was stuffed into Yan Xiaoju’s mouth when she heard the noise outside. Her heart ached, and she looked at Yan Xiaoju and asked, “Xiaoju, let me ask you a question. Answer me truthfully. Do you still want to live in this house? Do you still want that father?”

n

nYan Xiaoju’s eyes were filled with tears, and there was no focus in her dazed eyes. She thought for a while, then shook her head with a hoarse voice, “No, I don’t want to live here, and I don’t want to acknowledge this father! He has never treated me like a daughter.”

n

nGu Qingchen read Yan Xiaoju’s mind at the same time. She had the same thought. If Yan Xiaoju was not an adult now and could not live independently, and her guardian was still her father, she would have left long ago.

n

nShe had been enduring, waiting to leave this house when she became an adult.

n

nAfter confirming Yan Xiaoju’s thoughts, Gu Qingchen became determined. Since that was the case, she did not have any scruples.

n

n“Xiaoju, from today onwards, you will acknowledge my parents as godparents. They are very nice and will treat you well. Are you willing to do so?”

n

nYan Xiaoju was stunned. She did not expect Gu Qingchen to say such words. Although she and Gu Qingchen were good friends, they had not known each other for long. She had never thought that Gu Qingchen would willing to share her parents with her.

n

nSuddenly, a warm feeling spread throughout her body. The sourness in her nose made her choke and unable to speak.

n

nGu Qingchen smiled at Yan Xiaoju. “Don’t be so excited. They will be more than happy to have a daughter to take care of them in the future!”

n

nYan Xiaoju nodded vigorously. “I will. I will definitely be filial to them! I promise!”

n

nGu Qingchen smiled. She did not really want Yan Xiaoju to take care of her parents. Instead, she wanted Yan Xiaoju to not have any psychological burden.

n

nIf Yan Xiaoju had not helped her in the laboratory, perhaps she would have died a long time ago.

n

nIn this life, it was her turn to take care of Yan Xiaoju.

n

n“Okay, I will take you away. Don’t worry.”

n

nAfter saying that, Gu Qingchen said to Little Bean outside, “Little Bean, let them in.”

n

nLittle Bean got Gu Qingchen’s order and moved away. The two policemen saw the situation in the room.

n

nThe light in the room was very dim and the space inside was very small. There was only one bed. The most shocking thing was that there was a girl on the bed who was tied there with a rope. She was tied up with a very thick hemp rope.

n

nWhat… What was going on!

n

nGu Qingchen did not untie the hemp ropes on Yan Xiaoju immediately. Instead, she stood up and looked at the two police officers, “In your jurisdiction, there are people who abuse children and commit domestic violence. Police officers, you really need to take good care of them!”

n

nThe two police officers looked at each other in a different way. It seemed that the truth was not what the girl had said.

n

n“What’s going on? Whose house is this? How dare they abuse children? It’s outrageous!”

n

nGu Qingchen did not care about what they did. She called Little Bean and the other two in and quickly untied the hemp rope on Yan Xiaoju’s body. There were many hemp ropes, and it took the four of them a long time to untie them.

n

nGu Qingchen immediately felt Yan Xiaoju’s pulse and looked at her injuries.

n

nThen, she said seriously, “Call an ambulance. Xiaoju has been tied up here for a long time and her blood is not flowing. She can’t stand up now and needs to be sent to the hospital immediately. If it’s too late, all of her bodily functions will die.”

n

nGu Qingchen deliberately said that it was very serious. Yan Xiaoju’s body was indeed not covered in blood. Many parts of her body were bruised, and it looked quite scary. However, as long as she had a good rest and a massage, nothing serious would happen.

n

nGu Qingchen called an ambulance at this moment was to let the whole neighborhood knew what happened here.

n

nMr. Lin knew Gu Qingchen’s ability. During the interview, Gu Qingchen could tell everyone’s physical condition just by checking their pulse. Now that she said Yan Xiaoju needed treatment in the hospital, it seemed that Yan Xiaoju’s condition was really serious.

n

nMr. Lin and the police had already told them his identity and that Gu Qingchen and Yan Xiaoju were students of Hongfeng. At this moment, the two police officers finally paid attention to them.

n

nEvery student of Hongfeng was not simple. After such a huge incident, they had to pay attention to this matter.

n

nThe police officers hurriedly called for an ambulance. The members of the Yan family were all a little flustered.

n

n“The four of you, follow me to the police station to take your statements. If you were to commit domestic violence against a minor and even endanger your life, you would be charged for attempted murder!”
