104 Help
“Don’t be afraid.” Guo Miao hugged Lu Ning.
The woman stood on the street like a shrew, with a brick in her left hand and her right hand propped on her waist.
“Who do you think you are to dare to challenge this old lady?” The woman looked at the bright glass window of the cake shop and was eager to act. “Lu Ning, you little b*tch, come out quickly. Don’t hide in there and not make a sound! Be careful or I’ll smash your shop to bits.”
If Guo Miao’s guess was correct, this woman was Lu Ning’s stepmother, Zhang Fang.
Zhang Fang was making a scene outside because she knew that Lu Ning wouldn’t dare to let her destroy the shop.
After all, Lu Ning and her father had borne all of Lu Ning’s family’s expenses before. If Zhang Fang smashed the shop, Lu Ning would still be responsible for it, not anyone else.
“I’ll go out and talk to her.” Guo Miao stood up but Lu Ning pulled her back.
Lu Ning knew that Guo Miao should have some way to deal with Zhang Fang, but it was probably useless.
While the two were hesitating, Zhang Fang had already rushed into the store. Her son, Zhang Qiang, followed behind her. Both of them were holding bricks and sticks in their hands, ready to fight.
“What are you doing? This is someone else’s shop, not mine.” Lu Ning stood in front of Guo Miao.
Guo Miao looked at the young girl in front of her, her eyes tearing up.
“There’s a little girl here too. That’s great. Today, I’ll sell the two of you to a brothel. Little girls like you can be sold for 100,000 yuan each. Haha!” Zhang Qiang revealed his yellow teeth as he sized up Guo Miao with ill intentions.
“You’d better think about it carefully. Do you want to help us pay off our debts? We know which hospital your useless father is hospitalized in. Don’t have any evil thoughts. If you don’t leave with us today, we’ll beat your father up tomorrow.” Zhang Fang waved the brick and looked at Lu Ning.
“What right do you have to cause trouble? I’ve had enough of you making my father and I pay for the debt you owe.” Lu Ning bit her lips hard as she confronted the two people in front of her.
“Auntie, since you know the price of a brothel so well, you must have worked in a brothel before, right?” Guo Miao said suddenly.
Zhang Fang spat on the ground. “You little brat, how dare you? I’m not some cheap slut from a brothel. Back then, I sold many women in our village to the brothel.”
It was clear that human trafficking was an illegal act, but Zhang Fang said it with pride.
“That’s right, we can definitely sell them for a good price. Those girls from our Dongshan Village were sold to the red-light district in Haicheng for 100,000 yuan each. With your qualifications, you can definitely fetch more than them, hehe…”
Zhang Qiang’s eyes stopped at Guo Miao’s chest, sizing her up with ill intentions. “What a pity, this girl is too shriveled up. I wonder if she can be sold for a few more dollars.”
“Do you know that human trafficking is illegal? Hurry up and leave before you’re arrested,” said Lu Ning. “Get as far away as you can, or I’ll have the police come to arrest you.”
“Police? I’d like to see if the police are faster or if I am.” Zhang Qiang grinned hideously and walked toward Lu Ning. He held the stick in one hand and pulled her into his arms with the other.
“If you don’t want to be sold, then why don’t you let me teach you… Ah!”
Before Zhang Qiang could finish his words, he suddenly fell to the ground.
Guo Miao’s movements were very fast, and then she pressed some acupuncture points on Zhang Qiang’s body. Zhang Fang watched as her son slowly closed his eyes.
“You two dare to kill my son?” Zhang Fang went crazy. The girl in front of her seemed to know martial arts as she had actually knocked Zhang Qiang down in two moves.
“You guys haven’t reached the point where I have to kill you.” Guo Miao stretched out her hand and grabbed Zhang Fang’s wrist, twisting it.
“Ah!” Zhang Fang screamed, “You hurt and killed someone. You will pay with your life. Watch out. I’ll go to the police now!”
Zhang Fang tried her best to drag her son away, wanting to escape.
Why would people like Zhang Fang and Zhang Qiang go to the police? Wouldn’t that be walking right into a trap?
“If you really want to call the police, then come with me. I’ve already called 110.” Guo Miao smiled.
“Did you record what I said just now?” Zhang Fang’s eyes were wide open as she looked at Guo Miao and Lu Ning in disbelief.
