“We are almost there. Sleep for a while more,” Jiang Bei said softly. At this moment, beads of sweat had already appeared on his forehead.
His daughter waking up suddenly made Jiang Bei panic.
He was no longer as calm as before. At this moment, his eyes were filled with worry.
He did not want his daughter to see his crazy appearance from that day. He also did not want his daughter to see such a dark side of society.
He only wanted to give the best to his wife and daughter. He couldn’t let them get hurt again.
“Wanwan, look, isn’t that our home? If you sleep a little longer, daddy will carry you up.” Jiang Bei pointed to the window not far away where the lights were on.
“Yes, the lights are on. Mommy is at home.”
But this time, Wanwan didn’t listen to him. When she saw the lights in the house were on, she turned her head.
She saw the bad guys with clubs!
“Daddy! There are bad guys!” Wanwan suddenly shouted. Her voice was filled with fear.
But she struggled in Jiang Bei’s arms, wanting to jump down!
“Wanwan, Listen to me. It’s okay. Have you forgotten? Daddy is superman,” Jiang Bei said hurriedly. He tried his best to comfort her daughter.
“I have to protect you. You can’t get hurt!” Wanwan shouted emotionally.
“Wanwan, be good, leave it to me, okay? Leave it to daddy… I will protect you,” Jiang Bei said in a low voice as he gently stroked his daughter’s back.
…
“Third Brother, this little girl is so pretty. She looks like she’s only three years old, right?”
“I know someone who specializes in this business. If I take her to those people, she’ll be worth at least 50,000 yuan.”
Third Brother’s eyes lit up again, but he couldn’t help but frown.
If they were caught, it would be a big crime!
Compared to being arrested for collecting protection fees and being locked up for a few days, this would be completely different.
“Who would know about this? Hehehe, this gambling scum probably thought that the money could solve the problem and save him a beating,” Another man said.
Among these people, many of them had never seen Jiang Bei before, so they had never seen his crazy side. At this moment, they only felt that he was the same as the other gamblers.
Third Brother was a little conflicted.
But without a doubt, he was tempted.
If it was really as they had said, snatching this little girl away and selling her for tens of thousands of dollars was good business.
But if…
In this silent and depressing night, their voices were so clear.
Perhaps Wanwan still did not know what was waiting for her, Jiang Bei already understood.
“Third Brother, I was too impulsive that day. This is 15,000 yuan. Take it first, I’ll write you an IOU of 50,000, no, 100,000 yuan. I’ll definitely pay you back.”
“If you’re still not satisfied, you can cut up my arm?”
“I won’t call the police. I’ll pretend that none of this happened. I promise you.”
Jiang Bei clenched his fists. He was on the verge of exploding at any moment, but he was begging. He hoped that Third Brother would still have a bit of conscience.
In front of him were seven or eight gangsters with clubs. He didn’t know how he could escape from these people.
He didn’t even know how he could protect his daughter under this circumstance.
If Wanwan was sold, he would go crazy, he really would!
He might be able to find his daughter in the future, but what kind of treatment would Wanwan experience at such a young age!
She might be scolded, she might be beaten, she…
Jiang Bei didn’t dare to think about it anymore.
He was used to preparing for the worst every time, this time he was really afraid!
He was regretting his rash action the other day and provoked this hooligan!
“Third Brother, let me and my daughter go today, okay?”
“In the future, I…”
“An IOU of 100,000 yuan? You can’t even pay off a gambling debt. You earned a bit of money today, and now you could pay 100,000 yuan?”
Before Jiang Bei could finish his words, a man immediately mocked him.
And just as Third Brother was in a dilemma and accidentally exerted strength in his arm, it once again opened his bone-deep wound.
“Hiss!”
The pain made him suck in a breath of cold air.
His hatred for Jiang Bei and his greed for the 50,000 yuan completely destroyed his last bit of rationality at this moment.
“You’re right! Dongzi, are your people reliable?” Third Brother suddenly laughed ferociously.
“They’re definitely reliable! Back then, I hung out with that person for a period of time. With this little girl’s beauty, I reckon that we could even sell her for 70,000 yuan.”
“Hehehe, then let’s just keep this between us. Later, when the child is sold, I’ll give everyone 5,000 yuan!”
Jiang Bei’s pleading stopped at this moment.
He slowly squatted down and placed Wanwan on the ground.
“Daddy, what’s wrong? Don’t be afraid, I will protect you.” Wanwan gently caressed Jiang Bei’s face.
“Wanwan, listen to me and protect yourself. You are my life. Protect yourself well only then I can stay alive. Do you understand?” Jiang Bei asked softly.
His eyes were filled with determination.
He did not know what kind of ending he would face.
Even if he had to use his own life to protect his daughter, he would not hesitate!
Even if he was beaten to death, he would protect his daughter!
“I understand, but those bad guys want to bully you, I…”

“Wanwan, be good. I will run with you in a while. Can you find the way home? I want to defeat the bad guys here.” Jiang Bei looked at his daughter and said with a smile. He wanted to make his smile look better, but he could not do it.
“Of course! Why is your smile so ugly again?”
“In the future, I will smile very nicely…”
“Go!”
Suddenly, Third Brother’s shout cut through the silent night..
