“Don’t touch them, one of this batch has already been beaten by you. If you mess up these two any more, they’ll sell for less. Auntie Apo, who placed the order, wants them clean.” The big baldy looked at Xiao Qian with the eyes of a beast.

Xiao Qian lowered her eyes, not looking at him. Her hands were tied behind her back..

-How about not selling them, and we keep them for ourselves? Look at this one with the beauty mark wearing glasses, so beautiful. Eldest Brother, let me have a go at her, just once.” The man standing in front of Xiao Qian started unbuckling his belt.

Shi Yu tried hard to stand in front of Xiao Qian, but she was bound too. Xiao Qian had already prepared herself for the worst. Suddenly, the girl who had just experienced misfortune struggled to get up. She had somehow untied the rope around her wrists and pounced like a madwoman onto the man in front of Xiao Qian. She held on and bit him. Another man hurried to pull her off, slapping her fiercely and tying her up again.

“Stop messing around. It’ll get dark soon, and it’ll be hard to walk on the mountain roads. These two pretty ones can fetch an extra 1,000, so let’s make some more money during the holidays.” Big Baldy’s words temporarily discouraged the wicked man, who gave Xiao Qian an evil look before turning to take the co-pilot seat.

In a large van, Big Baldy was driving, and the three victims, Xiao Qian, sat in the back. A sleazy man was in the co-pilot, and another man who obviously wasn’t a good person sat on Xiao Qian’s side, constantly licking the comer of his mouth. He looked at Xiao Qian and Shi Yu; such beautiful girls were rarely seen.

It could be imagined that if they had to sit in the same car with this man, nothing good would happen along the way. Even being groped would be considered light.

Suddenly, the sleazy man clutched his stomach.

“Ouch, I have a stomachache and need to use the toilet!’

The baldy cursed and pointed at the woman who had escorted Xiao Qian, saying, “Old Wu’s, don’t go back, go with me to deliver the goods.” “Brother, I still have to go home to feed my child, can I make it back before dark?”

“No problem, get on quickly!”

With Big Baldy’s words, the bad man was replaced by a fat woman.

The sleazy man in the co-pilot’s seat looked back at Xiao Qian and Shi Yu, then turned to Big Baldy and said, “Eldest Brother, let me sit in the back and have Old Wu’s family sit in the front?”

-No way, don’t keep getting ideas about this batch. Whether we can have a rich year or not depends on them. Da Mei, keep an eye on them and don’t let them make trouble!”

“Got it, brother!”

From the sound of it, it seemed like a family gang.

Anyway, Xiao Qian and Xiao Yu were safe for now.

What Xiao Qian didn’t expect was that this trafficker, called Da Mei, had also been trafficked. Once a victim, she now aided the abusers.

-When you get there, cry less and do more work. If one of you can give birth to a son, your status will be secure. Look at me.” The woman named Da Mei lifted her hand to show the big gold ring on her finger to Xiao Qian and the others.

“I’m having a good life now and have given birth to three sons, and my husband is good to me. He never hits me. You two shouldn’t be like her, acting dumb and running away. The more you run, the more you get beaten.”

Xiao Qian nodded and echoed.

“Sister, you are obviously a wise person.”

Shi Yu couldn’t be as tactful as Xiao Qian. Xiao Qian was deliberately trying to please the woman for a reason. Shiyu could only think of the text she had learned in school.

It turned out that there really were people who would eat blood-stained steamed buns, who would help the oppressors. They had once been victims themselves, but now they trafficked people and even persuaded others to accept it. The world was so terrifying, human nature was so complex! -Don’t try to play tricks with me. I’ve seen all kinds of chaste and virtuous women over the years, and not a single one has managed to escape. This is fate. Accept it if you have bad luck!”

Xiao Qian’s compliance pleased Da Mei, but she still warned her.

“Sister, don’t you miss your family from the past?

This question made Da Mei’s eyes momentarily absent.

Her family from before…

After giving birth to a few sons, her husband let her contact her family, but what was the point? She couldn’t go back, being tied to this life forever.

-Don’t talk so much, you’re driving me crazy!” Big Baldy warned and looked back, so Da Mei dared not speak.

The car continued on its way, arriving at a fork in the road. There were three roads ahead, and Xiao Qian suddenly held her stomach.

“Sister, my stomach hurts, 1 need to have a bowel movement.”

“No way! Don’t try to pull any tricks!”

“I really… can’t hold it…”

“Take her down, but keep her away from the car. It’s bad luck dunng the holidays!” Big Baldy hit the brakes, and Da Mei kicked Xiao Qian before taking her out of the car. There were wild bushes by the roadside, and Xiao Qian deliberately squatted slowly to take advantage of the cover. She quickly removed the crystal aster flower ankle chain from her foot.

There were many little aster flowers on the chain. Enduring the pain, Xiao Qian pulled them off one by one, not caring that her hands were cut by the metal.

“Are you done? Don’t try playing tricks on me!” Da Mei urged.

Xiao Qian came out from the bushes, “All done, just had a false alarm. 1 must be too scared.”

“Hurry up and get in the car!”

Da Mei carried an electric baton, walking behind Xiao Qian.

As Xiao Qian got in the car, she took advantage of the opportunity to throw down one of the small aster flowers she had clutched in her hand.

“Sister, I get carsick. Can you open the window a bit, and let me sit by the window? I’m afraid you’ll hit me if I throw up in the car…”

-You’re so troublesome!” Da Mei glared at Xiao Qian and pushed her to the window, leaving a crack open.

Perhaps they found it too troublesome, or maybe they thought Xiao Qian looked too weak to cause trouble, Da Mei didn’t restrain her further. So, throughout the journey, Xiao Qian kept throwing the small aster flowers out of the car window, tossing one whenever others were not looking.

Although she knew that her actions might be useless, she still harbored a glimmer of hope.

It was always better to do something than nothing.

Has Yu Minglang noticed her disappearance? If he has, he would probably be looking for her by now.

But even the powerful Shi Family in her past life couldn’t find Shi Touyu, so Xiao Qian knew how difficult it would be for him to find her in a place like this. They chose one of the three roads, driving quickly towards an unknown destination.

At this moment, in Qiang City, Yu Minglang was about to lose his temper.

Xiao Qian and Shi Yu had been missing for over 24 hours.

Although they hadn’t yet reached the 48-hour mark for filing a missing person report, Yu Minglang already guessed that Xiao Qian had met with misfortune. No matter how angry she was at him, she wouldn’t disappear for so long.

Jia Xiufang didn’t know that Xiao Qian was missing.

After checking the situation with Zheng Xu, Yu Minglang told Jia Xiufang that Xiao Qian’s mother had taken her on a trip and wouldn’t be back for a few days. At this moment, it wouldn’t do to make Jia Xiufang worried.

She wouldn’t be able to help anyway.

Yu Minglang carried the burden alone..
