Chapter 121 Child Marriage



"Don't worry, I'm fine. I'm going to see the kids first." Gu Tingchen also glanced at the back seat.

The car's front window was shattered and it looked like a car accident scene.

They called Mo Cheng again and asked him to send a new car over.

After Jiang Ranran finished taking care of the child, she took out the medicine box from the car and gave Gu Tingchen a simple bandage on his hand.

"Fortunately, I put a first aid kit in the car when I came out, otherwise, I really don't know what to do." Jiang Ranran breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that Gu Tingchen's hand injury is not too serious, but the car glass has pierced Gu Tingchen's hand. If it is not treated in time, it will easily leave a scar.

Jiang Ranran still felt a little sad in her heart, and she didn't know what was going on. It seemed as if her whole family had suffered a bloody disaster.

Such bad news happened one after another.

"As long as the child is not hurt, I'm fine too." Gu Tingchen smiled.

There was no one on the road late at night, only their family of five sitting in the car with the lights on, which felt very warm.

"I don't know when Mo Cheng will be able to come." Jiang Ranran looked at the road worriedly.

They were now quite a distance away from the hospital, and it would probably take Mo Cheng at least an hour to get here.

Suddenly, four or five people jumped out from the front, all holding sticks in their hands, and it was obvious that they were not friendly.

And it looked like it was coming right for them.

Jiang Ranran looked at the people outside, feeling a little strange. "What's going on? Are they here to find us?"

Gu Tingchen also had a cold expression and was about to get off the car. Seeing this, Jiang Ranran also wanted to follow him, but was stopped by Gu Tingchen.

"You take care of the child in the car, and I will handle this matter." Gu Tingchen said.

These people outside came in with great force, and no one knew what they wanted from him. Gu Tingchen had offended people in the business world before, and if these people were looking for him, he didn't want to implicate Jiang Ranran and the child.

But Jiang Ranran was not at ease. After hiding the child in the back seat, she got out of the car.

Those thugs were dressed in rustic clothes, very fancy, holding sticks in their hands, and the one who hit the leader was a stutterer.

"Where...where did you hide Li Xin? Hand him over to me...quickly, or I will...not be polite to you." This person said one sentence and paused twice, which made Gu Tingchen and Jiang Ranran speechless.

"How would I know where she is? You have to go find her." Gu Tingchen's expression was cold.

Judging from the appearance of these people, they should be coming for Li Xin, which made Gu Tingchen feel a little relieved.

Fortunately, these people are not here to look for me, so if I explain the situation clearly, I guess they will leave.

"You said you didn't hide it, so it's not you who hid it. We checked before, and it was you who took the person away. I tell you, it's best not to cause trouble for yourself." said another person.

Jiang Ranran was somewhat helpless. "Why should we create trouble for ourselves? Besides, who are you to Li Xin?"

Seeing that these people were coming with such a threatening attitude and didn't look like good people, Jiang Ranran didn't quite believe that Li Xin, a young girl who had just graduated, would have any contact with these people.

What do these people want to do with Li Xin?

"Okay, since you asked, I'll tell you the truth. Li Xin's parents sold her to our boss before they died. We came here this time to marry Li Xin. If you don't hand her over, be careful, we will be rude to you." The gangsters continued.

Jiang Ranran frowned fiercely after hearing this. What era is it now? There are still things like parents arranging marriages.

And although Jiang Ranran and Li Xin don't get along, after all, Li Xin is a college student. How could she be willing to marry these rural thugs?

"Arranged marriage? This is illegal." Jiang Ranran said coldly.

"What law has been broken? Our eldest brother and Li Xin were engaged since childhood. Besides, his parents have already accepted the betrothal gifts. If the couple ran away, what's the big deal?" These people were very angry.

Jiang Ranran just felt a little sad.

It is not without reason that something happens out of nowhere. Li Xin grew up in such a family, so it is hard to guarantee that her psychology will not become distorted.

Jiang Ranran had a lot of resentment towards Li Xin before, but after knowing about Li Xin's past, those resentments seemed to dissipate a little.

In fact, when it comes down to it, Li Xin is just a poor girl. She tried so hard but couldn't change her fate. Everything she had worked so hard to get disappeared because of Jiang Ranran's existence.

"We don't know her, you guys can go." Gu Tingchen said.

"Why don't I believe it? Our people sent me photos before, saying that it was you who took the people away." These thugs seemed to want to provoke.

Just looking at Gu Tingchen's cold face, these people had no choice but to stop.

"We are not familiar with her, so why should we help her do this? Isn't this asking for trouble?" Gu Tingchen pursed his lips.

If he knew where Li Xin was, he would have handed him over immediately. They were already doing her the best they could by not pursuing legal responsibility against Li Xin.

These gangsters were still skeptical.

"Yes, you must have recognized the wrong person. We were taking the child to the hospital and had a car accident on the way, so we stopped here." Jiang Ranran also said.

Even though Li Xin had offended him so much, Jiang Ranran didn't want to hand Li Xin over to these thugs.

Jiang Ranran knew the rules of the rural areas. If she really handed Li Xin over, Li Xin's second half of life would be ruined.

"Are you serious? Then what is the relationship between you two?" These thugs were still a little unconvinced.

Jiang Ranran was stunned for a moment, then immediately took Gu Tingchen's arm, "This is my boyfriend, what's wrong? Is there any problem?"

Gu Tingchen acted very friendly, and these thugs seemed to start to believe him.

Seeing that the boss was about to leave, the younger brother next to him said, "Boss, do you think they might have tricked us? I remember that they were in the photos they sent me before."

"Why would we lie to you? What's in it for us? If our car hadn't been parked here, we would have left long ago. Otherwise, you can search the car and if Li Xin is there, take him away." Jiang Ranran said.

In fact, Jiang Ranran didn't want these people to get close to the car, after all, the child was still in the car.

These people walked step by step towards the car that had been in the accident, and kept looking inside, as if they were really trying to find out where Li Xin was.

Gu Tingchen said coldly: "It's only this big a car, where can it be hidden?"
