Chapter 200 Scars
(Wow! It’s already the 200th chapter without me noticing! Thank you to all the little cuties who accompanied me to the 200th chapter! Love you all!)
Gu Min seemed to be immersed in very bad memories. He was sweating and trembling all over. He seemed not to hear Qian Duojin's question at all. Mu Qingnian quickly stretched out his arms to hug him, gently patting his back, silently soothing his emotions, and answered Qian Duojin's words in a deep voice, "Brother Qian, the house near the bridge hole is where Ah Min lived for seven years..."
Qian Duojin's eyes suddenly widened, "Those seven years? You mean the seven years when I was abducted by human traffickers?"
Mu Qingnian nodded silently. She could intuitively feel that the person next to her trembled more violently when he heard the word "human trafficker". He hugged his waist tighter, trying to transfer some warmth.
"Then that person just now, is he one of those beasts back then? How come he is here?" Qian Duojin was instantly indignant. How could such a group of extremely evil human traffickers still come out and threaten people so brazenly now? !
This time Gu Min spoke, but the gentle voice in the interview just now had become hoarse and trembling. "Well, he was not the leader of our trafficking at the time. He was not directly involved, so he was sentenced to ten years. This year... he was released from prison..."
Qian Duojin saw him speak and hurriedly asked, "What do those photos he just mentioned mean? Can you tell me so I can know how to deal with them?"
Gu Min suddenly squatted down, looking so weak and helpless. The scenes he least wanted to recall over the years resurfaced. He held his head and banged his temples frantically, as if trying to force those scenes out of his brain. Mu Qingnian knelt on the ground, hugged him distressedly, and stopped him from wanting to hurt himself, murmuring, "It's okay, Min, don't say it if you don't want to, it's okay, it's okay. Don't be afraid, I'm here, don't be afraid."
Mu Qingnian hated those people in his heart. He had gradually gotten over the psychological trauma of his childhood over the past ten years, but why, why did these people come back to torture him again...
Qian Duojin had never expected that a question would irritate the person so much, so he quickly squatted down to comfort him, and at the same time signaled the security personnel to observe the people coming and going to prevent the current situation from being captured by someone with ulterior motives and used to make a fuss.
An unknown amount of time had passed. Gu Min lay in the girl's arms, smelling the familiar scent from her body. His emotions gradually stabilized. He was still limp on the ground, but his eyes were dull and lifeless. Mu Qingnian and Qian Duojin did not dare to stimulate him too much. They could only accompany him silently.
After a while, Gu Min's hoarse voice sounded again... telling the story that he had not even told Nian Nian back then...
"Back then, in addition to begging on the streets every day, there would be people who would come to buy us every once in a while. Slightly older girls were the easiest to sell, followed by little boys. But without exception, they were all sold to distant rural areas and never had the chance to come back. Every time we were sold, we had to take photos of us to show the buyers, and we... couldn't wear clothes, because we had to show the buyers a full range of aspects to see if they were satisfied... Sometimes... those traffickers... would even take advantage of goods that the buyers didn't like... And I was stubborn and wanted to stay, because if I stayed, I could be closer to home... Closer... I would have a little hope of going home... So I cut scars on my body one after another, and as long as there were scars... those people wouldn't want to buy me... and those traffickers wouldn't be interested in me... So, I should have the most photos of myself at that time..."
Listening to Gu Min's story, the emotions of the two people beside him fluctuated greatly, especially Mu Qingnian, whose tears unconsciously flowed down because of endless heartache... He couldn't stop it no matter what he did...
Qian Duojin's expression was not good either. These people were simply beasts. Moreover, this person would come all the way to find Xiao Min and threaten him after being released from prison. He had heard about Xiao Min's experience, but he didn't expect that this boy who looked so gentle on the outside had already been hurt inside...
"Amin, don't go meet this person alone. I'll contact the legal department to see how to handle this matter. Let's get in the car first. You and Nian Nian can go to the hotel to rest. Since the place he arranged to meet is also the city where your family and our company are located, I will fly back to the company tonight to handle it and contact the local public security bureau to report the incident."
