How to deal with Chapter 202

Xiao Tiantian solemnly took out the drawing from his schoolbag and showed it to Secretary Lei.

The drawing was done with crayons. It depicts an adult with a child in a garden, with the sun shining in the sky and birds flying overhead.

The two people in the garden held hands and smiled at each other, surrounded by colorful flowers.

At the very bottom, five words were written in crayon: Dad, I love you!

Secretary Lei was a little surprised when he saw the painting. Since his remarriage, his son had not expressed his emotions like this for a long time.

“Tian Tian, ​​this is…” Secretary Lei smiled and pulled little Tian Tian into his arms again.

"Tomorrow is Dad's birthday, this is a birthday present for Dad."

"Dad, do you like it?" Xiao Tiantian asked earnestly.

Secretary Lei nodded immediately.

He never expected his son to give him such a painting as a gift, and he was even more surprised that his son remembered his birthday!

It seems that raising Xiao Tiantian in someone else's home hasn't diminished the father-son relationship between them!

"Tian Tian, ​​Daddy likes it very much!" Secretary Lei said with a smile, patting little Tian Tian's head.

Xiao Tiantian breathed a long sigh of relief.

See, giving gifts doesn't necessarily have to cost money. The most important thing is to make the recipient happy without spending any money.

I'm so smart, I can't believe I came up with such a great idea.

Although he still had some money on him, as his grandfather and maternal grandfather had given him quite a bit when he returned to Shanghai, that money... he had a use for!

My older sister's family is so poor, and they need money for everything, so I have to secretly prepare some money for them!

If the older sister runs out of money, I can help her out a little.

As for giving gifts to Dad...

The sentiment is the most important thing. We're father and son, why make so many compromises? As long as the sentiment is there, that's enough.

And so, Xiao Tiantian spent a pleasant day at home, once again demonstrating to Tian Lei what true filial piety and parental love are...

Xiao Tiantian continued talking to Secretary Lei about various things, just like before.

Tian Lei, just like before, couldn't get a word in edgewise.

However, this time Tian Lei wasn't angry like before; she was clearly preoccupied.

Xiao Tiantian didn't tell Secretary Lei what she had overheard.

...

After returning home, Xiao Tiantian hurriedly put his schoolbag in his room and then took Yao Shula's hand and walked towards the main room.

Seeing Xiao Tiantian's anxious expression, Yao Shula, who was still holding a cabbage in her hand, knew that he had something important to do.

"What's wrong? Did your dad's birthday not go well?" Yao Shula asked with a smile.

Xiao Tiantian quickly pulled Yao Shula to sit down and then poured her a glass of water.

"By the way, my dad was very happy when he saw the painting I gave him, and said he really liked it."

"I think the gift I gave was great!" Xiao Tiantian said.

Yao Shula smiled and said, "Fine, whatever I like is fine. As for the rest... it's not appropriate for outsiders to say anything."

"Is there something you need that's keeping you in such a hurry to come back?" Yao Shula continued to ask.

Xiao Tiantian nodded, and then told Yao Shula everything she had overheard at home.

And they really did it without missing a single word!

Yao Shula was completely stunned...

In order to have a second child, she actually wanted to give her own child away and even pretend that it had been stolen...

This looks more and more like something out of a TV show...

No, that's not right. Isn't it said that art comes from life?

It turns out that any one or two of these things in life could be made into a TV series.

"Tian Tian, ​​did you tell your dad about this after you heard about it?" Yao Shula asked hurriedly.

Little Tiantian shook her head.

"No! I know that if I tell them, whether Dad believes me or not is another matter, and they can simply deny it."

"Big sister, didn't you say that you need the stolen goods to catch a thief, and you need to catch them in the act of adultery?" Little Tiantian blinked and said.

Yao Shula...

She only said "catch the thief with the stolen goods," so the following sentence definitely wasn't her own.

Yao Shula had already thought a lot about it.

That Tian Lei's mother... is heartless. She could even think of sending her own granddaughter away just to make her daughter have a second child. Who knows what else she might be planning behind the scenes!

Add to that the dream Yao Shula had...

If I hadn't come, how could Xiaotian have been trafficked to such a far place?

There's probably something to do with Tian Lei's mother in this, but whether Tian Lei knows about it or not... Yao Shula doesn't think people are too kind.

Thinking about how Xiao Tiantian was sold and tortured in her dream, and how the original owner was beaten to death, Yao Shula felt a surge of anger.

However, she still had some questions for Xiaotian.

"Tian Tian, ​​what do you think? If your stepmother really lost the child she gave birth to, how would you feel?" Yao Shula looked at little Tian Tian.

Xiao Tiantian's expression was a little conflicted.

He thought for a moment before speaking.

"I don't like her! But if I see a little girl being kidnapped on the street, I'll still help report it to the police."

"Big sister, am I useless?!" Little Tiantian asked in a low voice.

Yao Shula smiled and hugged Xiao Tiantian.

"Tian Tian is not useless! Our Tian Tian is a kind-hearted little angel."

Okay, don't think about it too much, leave this to your older sister!

As for you, you only need to do one thing! That is to protect yourself! Got it? Yao Shula said, patting Xiao Tiantian's head.

"Big sister, does this have anything to do with me?" Little Tiantian asked, looking up.

Yao Shula thought for a moment and then said, "They can even abandon their own granddaughter like that, what if they take a dislike for you one day!"

Xiao Tiantian immediately recalled the scene from her dream, and her face turned pale...

"Alright, go play with your brother Shuli for a while. He's playing cards with someone over there. I'll tell you what to watch out for after dinner tonight." Yao Shula patted Xiaotian.

Xiao Tiantian nodded and then went to play with Yao Shuli.

Yao Shula took the cabbage in her hand and went back to the kitchen to continue cooking.

While cooking, I started figuring out what I should do...

Tian Lei's mother is no good. She was able to think of getting rid of Tian Lei's child to pave the way for her own future, so she must have thought about getting rid of Xiao Tiantian too!

It's just that we haven't seized the opportunity yet.

Little Tiantian isn't a child anymore; she can talk and run. Getting rid of Little Tiantian won't be that easy.

Moreover, Xiaotian's life trajectory is within a safe range. She goes between home and school, and she never walks to and from school alone. She has Yao Shuli and several other friends with her.

The road from school to home is packed with people; the chances of someone being snatched off the street are slim.

If they want to take advantage of Xiaotian, they only have one trick left... and that is to lie!

And they didn't even lie on the way to or from school, they lied during class time...

For example, impersonating someone to specifically pick up Xiaotian...

Yao Shula immediately had an idea!
