Huo Dongfang's eyes turned cold, and he said with a horrified expression, "Xingxing, I will definitely give you justice!"

Ye Fanxing bit her lip, her eyes brimming with tears, and nodded gently.

"Uncle Huo, I believe you."

We have witnesses and recordings.

The two human traffickers had no way to deny it, and they were taken directly into the interrogation room to cooperate with the investigation.

After Huo Dongfang accompanied Ye Fanxing to complete her statement, the group walked back to the guesthouse.

The staff member at the guesthouse registration desk was still listening to the radio and knitting.

I know nothing about what happened tonight.

Zhan Beiwang reached out and patted Huo Dongfang on the shoulder, indicating, "Old Huo, I won't go up. You stay and keep Xingxing company tonight."

Huo Dongfang thought of the two human traffickers, his eyes turning cold, and he warned in a chilling tone, "Don't forget what I asked you to do."

"rest assured."

Zhan Beiwang patted his chest.

"You just need to take good care of Xingxing, I'll take care of everything else."

Zhan Beiwang watched Huo Dongfang and Ye Fanxing enter the room before leaving.

Huo Dongfang helped Ye Fanxing sit on the edge of the bed and thoughtfully poured her a glass of water.

"Star, have some water."

Ye Fanxing took the water glass and sipped the water slowly.

The warm water warmed Ye Fanxing's cold body.

Before transmigrating into the book, she was a classical dancer, usually either rehearsing with the troupe or performing.

Living in a simple environment, I had never encountered such danger before.

At that time, she had only heard about this kind of crime from legal education programs.

Ye Fanxing never imagined that such a terrible thing would happen to her.

Even with Huo Dongfang by her side, she couldn't help but feel waves of fear.

She dared not think about what would have happened if she hadn't been alert at the time.

What would have happened if I had been even a little slower?

She'll be taken away by human traffickers!

They might be sold to some remote mountain village.

Once she was sold into those endless mountains, there was no way she could escape.

She would be kept like an animal in a pigsty or cowshed by the buyers.

Her ultimate goal is to have children.

They give birth one after another, like a ruthless birthing machine.

It's even possible that brothers might share a wife.

It's more likely that after fulfilling their birthing duty in this family, they will be sold to someone else.

These are all real cases featured in legal education programs.

One shocking real case after another.

"Uncle Huo."

Ye Fanxing held the enamel water cup, looking at Huo Dongfang like a frightened kitten.

Will they be able to trace the people behind the human traffickers?

Huo Dongfang knew that even if they returned to the guesthouse now, even if he was by her side, she would still be afraid.

"meeting."

"Could it really be the Su family who did it? They already stole my university acceptance letter, why won't they let me go?"

Huo Dongfang's eyes were gloomy as he comforted her in a hoarse voice, "Xingxing, you should rest well. I will definitely find the real culprit behind this."

The police at the local police station will investigate.

Zhan Beiwang's side will also investigate.

If all of this is indeed related to the Su family.

Then the Su family would have no reason to exist.

"Uncle Huo."

Ye Fanxing opened her mouth, wanting to say that she was scared and ask if he could stay with her tonight.

"It's getting late, you should get some rest."

Huo Dongfang must be tired after a busy day.

Huo Dongfang knew Ye Fanxing was scared, so he took the water glass and said affectionately, "Xingxing, you go to sleep first. I'll go back to my room after you're asleep."

Ye Fanxing took a deep breath and pretended to be strong, saying, "Uncle Huo, I'm fine."

Huo Dongfang asked, still uneasy, "Really?"

Ye Fanxing smiled bravely and said, "It's true. I'm Ye Heping's daughter, and I'm not a coward."

Even though Huo Dongfang was worried about Ye Fanxing, he knew in his heart that if a man of his age were to remain in Ye Fanxing's room...

It's not quite appropriate, either emotionally or logically.

He couldn't let Ye Fanxing be tainted.

"Then close the door and get some rest."

Ye Fanxing nodded obediently.

"OK."

After watching Huo Dongfang leave, Ye Fanxing gently closed the door.

After inserting the chain that was locked from the inside, she lay down on the bed fully clothed.

Turn off the lights.

The streetlights shone on the treetops, casting dappled shadows.

Ye Fanxing pondered over and over whether she should take this opportunity to get closer to Huo Dongfang.

For example, would it be best to sleep in the same room?

Would Huo Dongfang change his principles for her?

Ye Fanxing didn't know.

She has to try and take a gamble.

Night was falling.

Everything was still.

Ye Fanxing started having nightmares.

"Uncle Huo, save me!"

"No! Let go!"

"Uncle Huo..."

The soundproofing in the guesthouse room wasn't very good, and Ye Fanxing's murmurs sounded more like heart-wrenching cries to Huo Dongfang's ears.

Huo Dongfang gently knocked on Ye Fanxing's door with a worried look in his eyes.

His knocking went unanswered.

Worried that something might have happened to Ye Fanxing, Huo Dongfang kicked the door hard in his anxiety.

With a loud bang, the door was kicked open.

Ye Fanxing woke up from a nightmare.

She was so frightened that she wrapped herself tightly in the blanket and curled up in the corner.

She buried herself completely under the covers, hiding herself away like an ostrich.

When Huo Dongfang saw Ye Fanxing like this, a pang of heartache flashed in his eyes.

He reached out and hugged Ye Fanxing, blanket and all, tightly in his arms.
