Chapter 39

When she returned to the villa that evening, Gu Qingan came.

The two little ones were visibly excited, calling "Mom" repeatedly around her mother.

Aunt Peach watched her grow up and was also very happy. She cooked a big meal.

After dinner, Gu Qingan said, "I want to invite you to be my brand ambassador."

Shen Tang exclaimed "Ah," and when she reacted, she repeatedly declined, "No, no way, my reputation..."

Shen Tang looked to Gu Huai'an for help, but he nodded in agreement.

Shen Tang suspected he didn't know about her reputation, otherwise how could he ask her to agree to marry him.

Gu Qingan laughed and explained, "Since I dared to look for you, of course I would do my research beforehand. To be honest, I think those negative things about you are too far-fetched..."

Shen Tang laughed awkwardly and secretly glanced at Gu Huai'an: "Actually, a lot of it is true..."

Gu Qingan paused for a moment, then continued, "I think your image is very suitable, you can consider it again."

Seeing the topic not continuing, Shen Tang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It wasn't that she didn't want to make money, but she knew her current state too well. Endorsing might even have the opposite effect, so it's better not to pit others.

Gu Qingan laughed and shook her head. She really wanted to help out. If her sister and brother-in-law really didn't want to, then forget it.

She didn't care about those things. Her brand succeeded because of solid products.

The next day, Gu Qingan left early to go to work, and Gu Huai'an was not around either.

It had to be said, the sister and brother were both workaholics.

When Anran woke up and didn't see her mother, she looked very disappointed. Shen Tang suggested, "How about I take you out to play?"

"Where are we going to play?" Gu Wuyang asked listlessly.

"Amusement park?"

The two little ones got excited.

To be honest, they hadn't really been there much.

Usually they had a lot of classes, and when they were free they just played at home.

Today they actually had horse riding and piano lessons, but Shen Tang directly asked for time off.

The two little ones were excited, but also a little afraid, "Is this really ok?"

"Don't worry, no problem!" Shen Tang first bought tickets online, then took the two little ones to go shopping at the mall.

When a family goes out, they have to have a family look. How can they not wear matching outfits?

The two little cuties had top looks, they were beautiful in every outfit they tried, so Shen Tang bought them all.

After changing into matching Donald Duck outfits, the other clothes were sent to the Gu villa.

Downstairs, there was someone selling cotton candy. Seeing the two little ones looking longingly, Shen Tang held one in each hand, "Let's buy it!"

While paying, Anran was gone.

Shen Tang looked around, there was no one. She panicked a little.

"Where's Anran?"

The cotton candy in Gu Wuyang's hand instantly lost its appeal, "I, I didn't notice..."

He had just been distracted looking at the cotton candy.

Shen Tang first called the police to report it, then asked passersby and shop owners nearby. She also entrusted the security guard to check the surveillance footage before going to look for Anran.

Fortunately, their outfits were quite eye-catching. Someone noticed Anran was led away by an old lady.

Shen Tang ran in that direction. Sure enough, she saw an old lady leading Anran forward. There was a van there.

The distance wasn't too far. Afraid she wouldn't make it in time, Shen Tang looked left and right. She grabbed a shared bike on the roadside and hurled it over -

"Bang!"

The shared bike heavily smashed into the van and the windows shattered instantly.

The surroundings instantly quieted.

Ignoring the looks from passersby, Shen Tang rushed over in three steps and grabbed Anran's hand.

At this time, Anran was still a little confused, "Sis?"

The old lady pulled hard and looked towards the van, "What are you dazing for? Do it!"

Several muscular men with tattoos rushed over to grab the girl.

The surrounding passersby were afraid of getting involved in trouble and retreated several steps.

Kindhearted people helped call the police.

Shen Tang pried open the old lady's hand, shielding Anran behind her amidst the old lady's screams.

"Openly snatching people in broad daylight, how arrogant?"

The few people probably knew well that villains die from talking too much. They didn't speak and just rushed forward to fight.

Shen Tang wasn't skilled at fighting, but she was very strong.

Just now she had almost thought she lost the child, and now her heart was filled with rage she couldn't vent, these people came at just the right time.

She shielded Anran behind her and punched with all her might, taking them on one by one, two on one. The onlooking passersby had originally thought they would see Shen Tang being one-sidedly abused. They didn't expect those burly men to be all bark and no bite, that even a woman could beat them.

The originally fearful passersby weren't afraid anymore. Since even one woman could beat them, they could too!

In the end, Shen Tang pressed down the ringleader and rained heavy blows on him. The thug cried and begged for mercy, "Stop hitting... stop hitting..."

"I was wrong... spare me..."

Damn, this woman is too fierce!

Punching hurts so much, are her fists made of iron hammers?

The other few people didn't fare well either, beaten black and blue by the passersby.

Seeing the situation was bad, the old lady wanted to run but was firmly blocked by righteous passersby.

She screamed, "Let go of me!"

"Damn you, you human trafficker, don't think about running!"

When the police arrived, the few bad guys seemed to see hope. They cried loudly, "Help! Uncle police, help!"

"Save me! Save me!"

"I'm a human trafficker! Hurry catch me!"

This scene was truly laughable and pitiful. The police were a little stunned, almost unable to distinguish who the real human trafficker was.

Only then did Shen Tang let go. She recounted what happened in an orderly manner.

Gu Wuyang ran over with the security guard at this time. Seeing Anran, he rushed over and hugged her, crying.

"You scared me to death..." Luckily nothing bad happened.

Gu Anran then realized she had made a mistake. She explained softly:

"Sorry for worrying you. Just now that granny said she hadn't eaten in a long time and wanted me to treat her to a meal..."

She also realized now something was wrong. If just giving money was fine, why insist on pulling her along...

And adults don't seek help from children, but insist on asking her, a child...

Gu Anran was usually protected too well. She didn't have experience with these kinds of things, so she didn't understand and was easily duped.

"I'm sorry..."

Shen Tang stroked her head, "There's no fault in your kindness, but bad people have too many tricks. We can't let our goodwill become capital for bad people to harm us."

Gu Anran nodded seemingly comprehending.

In the end, the three didn't make it to the amusement park. Instead they listened to anti-fraud lectures at the police station for half a day.

Although somewhat disappointing, they still learned a lot. At least the two little ones won't be easily fooled in the future.

This incident was also recorded into a short video by a passerby and posted on Weibo.

Shen Tang's fans didn't notice, but one of the major anti-fans recognized her first. He reposted the video on Weibo and said:

Human traffickers deserve to be beaten to death. Well done! I won't scold you today @Shen Tang.

Unexpectedly, Shen Tang actually replied: Thanks?
