Unprepared

When Mrs. Wu heard that her son’s saviors had arrived, she hurriedly put down the spatula in her hand and walked to the door to thank them.

When Yu Bing and Xiao Sheng saw the gratitude and eagerness in the Wu family’s eyes, they were a little embarrassed.

Mr. Wu could tell that Yu Bing and Xiao Sheng were both upright people, so he interrupted his mother and wife with a smile. “Let Yu Bing and Xiao Sheng in first. You guys are so excited that you’ve forgotten to welcome them in. Wu Ling and I have already thanked them profusely today. Let the children from afar come in and have a good meal tonight.”

Grandma Wu also smiled and said, “Sorry for nagging you guys for such a long time. You guys haven’t even taken a sip of water. Come in quickly!”

Mrs. Wu also said happily, “Sit and chat for a while. I’ll go to the kitchen to cook two more dishes. They’ll be ready soon!”

Yu Bing and Xiao Sheng entered the house.

From the Wu family’s house, they were quite well-off, so their positions were probably quite high-ranking. The family of five lived in a house with three bedrooms and two living rooms. Usually, only ordinary families with seven to eight people could be allocated such a large house. Few many families who could be allocated such a large house.

There was a radio, a sewing machine, and watches on the couple’s hands. The Wu family were equipped with all three of the era’s most popular items.

After Xiao Sheng placed the gift on the coffee table, Grandma Wu scolded, “Today is a thank-you banquet specifically set up for you guys. How can we let you guys spend money? What a waste of money. Take it back and eat it yourself!”

Xiao Sheng had never been good at communicating with elders, so Yu Bing took the initiative to continue the conversation and coaxed her with a smile, “Grandma Wu, it’s our first time here! We won’t bring it next time.”

...

Grandma Wu nodded in satisfaction when she heard this. “That’s more like it. In the future, when you come to C City for business trips, come over to stay. I will cook for you guys. There’s enough room for everyone here. You don’t have to spend money on staying at the guest house.”

At this moment, Wu Ling brought wheat milk essence to the two of them. “Yu Bing, Xiao Sheng, you guys came all the way here, so drink something first!”

Wheat milk essence was a high-end nutritional product at this time, even more so than honey water. It could be considered a luxury item among nutritional products. Many people felt that wheat milk essence was even more nutritious than honey. In fact, they were about the same in terms of nutrition, but the price of wheat milk essence was much higher.

Seeing that there were many people in the living room, Wu Gang also joined in the fun and surrounded the sofa. Grandma Wu stroked her grandson’s head as she lamented, “I even know one of the two families who lost their child a few days ago. She’s a colleague of my niece’s schoolmate at the factory. That child’s mother became so haggard because of this. We weren’t familiar with her, but we felt so sad when we heard this.”

With that, she scolded fiercely, “Those human traffickers should be arrested and shot! They have children of their own, yet they still did such a thing. Aren’t they afraid that retribution will befall their own children?!”

At this point, Grandma Wu couldn’t help but pat the back of their hands excitedly. “Thanks to you two, our three families avoided the pain of separation!”

The children of the other two families were escorted back by the police. At this moment, they only knew that Yu Bing and Xiao Sheng were people who had come to City C on a business trip to look for an office. If they knew that the two of them were at the Wu family’s house, there would probably be more than ten people waiting there tonight.

Yu Bing recalled that there was still one male accomplice who had not been caught, so she mentioned this. “There are human traffickers everywhere. Even without them, there are still others. We still have to be vigilant about this.”

Mr. Wu sighed when he heard this. “These human traffickers have many tricks up their sleeves. It’s impossible to guard against them. Previously, when I went out of town on a business trip, I heard of an abduction case as well.”

“A mother carried her one-year-old child to buy groceries. She kept bumping into a woman, so the two of them chatted. Seeing that it was inconvenient for the mother to pick vegetables and carry the child at the same time, the women took the initiative to help. In the end, the mother let down her guard and handed the child over. Then, the child was gone!”

These were just some simple tricks human traffickers used. In the future, the country would crack down on a group of human traffickers, from which they would obtain information and come up with many anti-trafficking methods. Yu Bing told the Wu family everything she knew, dumbfounding everyone.

...

At this moment, the food was ready, so Mrs. Wu called everyone to eat at the table. There were chicken, duck, and fish on the dining table. Usually, such sumptuous dishes were only reserved for the Spring Festival.
