With Tong Anqu's intelligence, the police quickly located the hideout of the human traffickers, but it was deserted and no one was seen. The police, in plainclothes, spent more than ten days investigating before finally finding out the whereabouts of the human traffickers and heading west.
The local police station in Wangya's jurisdiction was not in charge of this case. The station chief instructed them to visit each household to remind them not to open the door to strangers and to keep a close eye on their children.
The school where Song Lijun studied also became tense, with two more security guards added at the entrance.
Until the winter vacation, every morning either Song Anmin or Wang Ya would bring Song Liyun to school, and every day after school, either Chen Zhou or Wang Ya would pick up the two kids and take them back to Heping Lane or the police station.
After the winter vacation started, the adults had to go to work, so the two kids went to the Song family home every day to stay with their great-grandparents and grandparents.
In the second semester after the winter break, the twins will also be preparing for the college entrance examination. Before that, Yan Yan and Lele have also been admitted to universities. Yan Yan went to study in Shanghai, and Lele went to Xiamen University.
The younger siblings all knew that the twins needed to focus on their studies, so they played in the yard without disturbing them. When they got tired of playing marbles, they would follow their great-grandparents around the streets and alleys.
Now that it's winter, Grandma Song can no longer go out with just a cane; she has to use a wheelchair.
Every day, Grandpa Song would push Grandma Song outside.
The two elderly people with white hair were so annoying that pedestrians would deliberately avoid them, which made Grandpa Song angry. "Do you think you can run me over?!" he cursed.
Now that Song Mingzhou and Song Liyun are on winter vacation, the two younger siblings have taken over their great-grandfather's job, letting him walk slowly while the two siblings push their great-grandmother's wheelchair.
"Mingzhou and Junjun are amazing! They can even push a wheelchair. They're so strong! Let's eat lots of meat tonight!"
Song Liyun chuckled, her voice booming with energy, "I have plenty of strength!!!"
Not only that, the two little ones would sit in the house by the fire when they were bored, listening to Granny Wang gossip with their grandparents. Occasionally, their great-uncle would take them to Phoenix Pavilion for a stroll and buy them corn cakes.
However, the two younger ones now have a psychological aversion to cornbread. They went out with Xu Songyuan a few times and then refused to go anymore, preferring to stay at the Song family's house.
Over the years, Xu Guiying and Song Xinfu have sold more than eight million yuan worth of houses they bought. Their courtyard houses are still standing. With extra money in hand, they went to Shenzhen and Guangzhou to buy real estate and gold. Their previous investment in Hangzhou has already made a small profit. Song Xinfu and Xu Songyuan have to admire Xu Guiying's foresight.
Ten days before the Lunar New Year, Yan Yan and Le Le also returned home for their winter vacation. Both children are quite promising, with good temperaments and personalities, quite different from their previous lives. In this life, only Song Guomin supports the two children. Fortunately, the two children are good at studying and have scholarships, which can reduce Song Guomin's pressure.
Every year during the Spring Festival and other holidays, Xu Guiying would give the children money for the New Year, and Xu Songyuan would also give money. Generally speaking, Song Guomin might not have much money, but Yan Yan and Lele had a fair amount.
Before New Year's Eve, Wang Ya brought back some news. She heard it from the director: Tong Anqu had now recognized the junior high school girl's parents as his godparents. This family owned a clothing factory, and they were doing so partly out of gratitude to Tong Anqu and partly as a gamble on Tong Anqu's future.
After several meetings, the other party felt that Tong Anqu had good grades, a good personality, and relatively high emotional intelligence. Even if things didn't go well in the future, they wouldn't be too bad. It would be better to win him over early on. If he and their daughter took a liking to each other, they could become a couple. If not, it would be considered a good deed of financial assistance.
Anyway, it's only been a matter of the last few years.
Wang Ya only told Song Anmin about this.
Tong Anqu was Liu Aimei's son, so it wouldn't be appropriate for her to bring it up at her in-laws' house.
After hearing this, Song Anmin thought, "He earned his own future."
He spared no effort back then, risking being caught and taken back, to escape with that girl. At least he had the courage for his age. Although he was a bit opportunistic, Song Anmin still thought Tong Anqu was a smart guy.
Wang Ya didn't think much of it; she had handled many cases and could understand the situation.
"From a young age, we are influenced by our environment; the instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm is a biological one."
