Chapter 89 What did they take her for?
When Wen Jiufa handed out the exam papers to Zhou Yanchuan, he slipped a note inside and handed it to him.
When Zhou Yanchuan saw the paper under the exam paper, the corner of his lips twitched slightly.
"Want to hold hands with me secretly in a little corner?"
Wen Jiu came out of the water room and slowed down as she walked to the corner of the stairs, wondering if Zhou Yanchuan had come.
She crouched down and peeked inside, but before she could see clearly, the back of her collar was suddenly tugged.
"It's here."
She turned her head with delight: "You're not in there."
Zhou Yanchuan met the girl's bright eyes, his gaze softening: "Just came from the classroom."
"Then let's go in quickly."
"Um?"
Wen Jiu made a gesture of taking hands.
Zhou Yanchuan smiled: "So you want to hold hands?"
"Don't you want to?" the girl asked back.
He looked at her, his smile deepening, and after a few seconds said, "I want to."
Before even entering, Zhou Yanchuan reached out and took the hand of the person in front of him.
The two of them didn't say anything, and just stood quietly at the corner.
For them, standing together, even without doing anything, is a relaxing experience.
Just as Zhou Yanchuan was about to leave for class, the girl called out to him: "Zhou Yanchuan."
"Um."
He looked down at her.
She suddenly raised her hand to hug her.
Zhou Yanchuan pulled the person into his arms, and a voice came from his chest: "If you're tired, allow yourself to rest for a while, okay?"

Soon it was time to leave school before the college entrance examination. Wen Jiu saw Wen Chengyu again, a month after she last saw him.
The last time I saw him was after a party, when I was at my doorstep.
The man was unusually quiet; he didn't smell of alcohol and was dressed impeccably in a white shirt and black trousers.
Wen Chengyu is actually very good-looking, otherwise Wen Jiu's mother wouldn't have been deceived by him back then.
The moment Zhou Yanchuan saw her that day, he shielded her behind him.
Wen Chengyu just smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. It's almost time for the college entrance exam. I came back to see my daughter."
Any father saying these words would be heartwarming, but it was only when Wen Chengyu said them that it felt so special.
Zhou Yanchuan's eyes were cold. He didn't give Wen Jiu a chance to look at him and directly led her back to his home.
The man didn't do anything there, and even disappeared again the next day.
Wen Jiu felt something was off, but with the exam approaching, she was too lazy to think about him.
She quickly put her meeting with Wen Chengyu out of her mind.
Unexpectedly, when I opened the door today, I saw a man sitting on the sofa, with two strong, unfamiliar men sitting next to him.
Wen Jiu suddenly stopped walking forward.
Wen Chengyu smiled broadly: "Our Xiao Jiu is back."
He got up from the sofa and walked towards her, saying, "Say hello, this is you—"
Before the man could finish speaking, Wen Jiu took a step back.
Zhou Yanchuan didn't leave. Upon hearing the sounds coming from the room, he immediately went forward and grabbed the person at the door.
When Wen Chengyu saw him, his expression changed slightly, but he still spoke in that obsequious tone: "Yanchuan is here too."
Zhou Yanchuan ignored him and simply said to the person next to him, "Go to my place first."
"That won't do. It was fine if you guys played around like this before, but now Xiao Jiu's status is different from before."
Wen Jiu looked at him, not understanding what he meant by those words.
Until I heard: "You've just finished high school and you'll be an adult soon, so Dad has found you a good home."
No matter how mature she is or how much she pretends not to care, she's still just a little girl at heart.
Wen Jiu thought she had misheard or misunderstood. Her usually calm expression was no longer calm, and she stared blankly at the man in front of her.
"What's the meaning?"
"Is this your daughter?" Two men came out of the room, their eyes openly scrutinizing Wen Jiu.
But before I could see it clearly, it was blocked.
Zhou Yanchuan pulled the person behind him, and at the same time his gaze fell on the tattooed arm.
Qiao Qingxue's words echoed in his mind: "It looks like a flower, and there's a small snake next to it."
He had someone check the tattoo and also reviewed the surveillance footage at the school gate.
After finding out that the person was a loan shark, they knew that Wen Chengyu was involved in the matter.
However, before we could even find someone to deal with it, they arrived first.
And it wasn't just collecting debts, it was selling people.
Upon realizing this, Zhou Yanchuan was furious: "Wen Chengyu, are you even human?"
The hand he was holding was trembling, shaking uncontrollably.
Zhou Yanchuan doesn't even have the courage to look back at the girl's eyes now; he must feel so wronged.
Wen Chengyu remained calm: "I've raised her for over ten years; that's more than enough."
“I’ve raised him for over ten years,” Zhou Yanchuan laughed sarcastically.
If it weren't for him, she would probably be living a much better life now.
"Stop talking nonsense and let go right now, or give me the money and I'll sell her to—"
Zhou Yanchuan didn't let him finish speaking and kicked him.
With a muffled groan, the man on the ground laughed instead of getting angry: "What? You're reluctant to spend the money? It's not much, just a million. For your Zhou family, even a simple ornament would cost more than that."
The moment the words left his mouth, Zhou Yanchuan's fist slammed down.
Like a sudden downpour, the rain was dense and fierce, pelting Wen Chengyu again and again.
What do you take her for?
Sold to this person and then to that person.
There's still a million left, just a mere million.
His eyes turned red with anger at these words, and his punches became heavier and heavier with each blow.
The two men behind the door exchanged a glance, but didn't rush to pull it open.
After chasing the loan for so many years, this was the first time they had ever met the father who sold his own daughter.
The two glanced at the girl who was standing there motionless.
They made a profit of one million.
Seeing that the person on the ground was no longer struggling, the two were about to speak when the girl called out first, "Zhou Yanchuan."
The boy's raised fist fell again, then he got up from the ground, grabbed her wrist, and was about to leave.
"Hey, hey, hey!" Upon seeing this, the two onlookers immediately stepped forward to stop them.
"You just heard it too, he's already sold the girl—"
The words they were about to say stopped when the boy looked at them with a fierce gaze.
They could tell at first glance that this boy was someone special.
The temperament is different from that of children from ordinary families.
When he saw this, he was genuinely startled for a moment, which was quite rare.
After a few seconds: "You can take her away if you want, but you have to pay me back."
Zhou Yanchuan reached for his phone, but Wen Jiu stopped him, her clear eyes fixed on the two of them: "If you have no money, call the police."
"Young lady, you can't do this. We're being lenient with your father, but you can't renege on your promise."
Wen Jiu didn't even look at them, and picked up her phone to make a call.
The two tried to snatch it, but Zhou Yanchuan stopped them.
Finally, watching her dial the number, he threw out a vicious "Wait."
Then I went downstairs.
The gentle voice of the police officer came through the phone.
"Hello, how can I help you?"
“I,” Wen Jiu’s hand holding the phone trembled uncontrollably. She didn’t know what Wen Chengyu had done, or whether these things would affect her future, but she forced herself to calm down and said, “I want you to investigate my father.”
