I traded scrap metal for hundreds of billions

Chapter 8 She is my sister

"She is a human trafficker, catch her!"

Everyone who heard this immediately surrounded Wen Zhi, leaving her with no way to retreat.

She hugged Gu Xiaoxiao tightly in her arms, then looked at the boy, about 16 years old, who was pulling her skirt.

"You are wrong, I am not a human trafficker, she is my sister!"

She pointed at Gu Xiaoxiao in her arms again and said, "If you don't believe me, ask her if what I said is true."

The boy's skin was dark due to long-term exposure to the sun. His body looked skinny, but he had some muscles in his arms.

He hugged Wen Zhi's waist tightly, making it impossible for her to break free.

He bit his lips tightly, and his sharp eyes revealed a determined and ruthless light.

"My sister has never been able to speak since she was a child. You took advantage of this fact and deliberately asked us to ask like that."

"You are a human trafficker! Give my sister back to me!"

He also specifically said to the crowd: "Please uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters, please help me. My mother died when she gave birth to my sister. My brother and I depend on each other for survival."

"We must not let this human trafficker take my sister away!"

After saying that, Gu Yan knelt on the ground and begged everyone.

When he returned home from work at the construction site this morning, he found that his younger brother and sister were missing.

He was so anxious that he followed the tricycle tracks on the road and searched for the whole morning, and finally found the broken tricycle from his family in front of the hospital.

He was just about to enter the hospital to look for her when he saw this strange woman at the door, holding his sister Gu Xiaoxiao.

There was an incident before, where there was a young and beautiful woman who seemed to be particularly kind to Xiaoxiao, but turned out to be a human trafficker, who almost sold Xiaoxiao into the mountains!

That's why he concluded that this woman was also a human trafficker!
When the onlookers saw this scene, they felt sorry for the half-grown child and blamed Wen Zhi who was in the center.

"You look so young, why don't you find a job? How can you kidnap and sell children?"

"Hurry up and return the little girl to her brother, or don't blame us for being rude!"

"I've called the police, you can't leave now!"

"Damn it, what I hate most in my life is people who kidnap children. Hurry, hold her down and don't let her run away!"

In an instant, everyone's eyes became sharp and they moved forward at the same time, further compressing Wen Zhi's space.

It was compressed so much that Wen Zhi couldn't even turn around.

Danger was brewing in the air, like water in a hot pot, boiling.

Wen Zhi hugged Gu Xiaoxiao tightly in her arms, bit her lower lip lightly, and then looked at the boy kneeling below.

Suddenly, she saw Gu Xiaoxiao stretching out her hands towards the young man, her eyes showing dependence on him.

In an instant, a name popped into her mind.

She blurted out: "Gu Yan!"

Gu Yan, who was kneeling, stood up instantly and looked strangely at the human trafficker who called out his name.

"How do you know my name?!"

Could it be that she tricked Fang Ming into telling her before she kidnapped him and sold him?

Wen Zhi looked at her second brother whom she met for the first time, and thought about the second brother who was mentioned the most in the letters her mother wrote to her, saying that he had the most difficult temper to deal with.

She swallowed and said, "Gu Yan, my father sold me when I was young. Your sister Wen Zhi, my mother should have mentioned me to you? Do you still remember?"

When Gu Xiaoxiao in his arms heard this, she temporarily stopped running towards Gu Yan's arms.

Then he pointed at Wen Zhi and made another gesture.

【Angel sister is a good person! 】

Gu Yan understood what Gu Xiaoxiao said and frowned, but when he faced Wen Zhi's face and saw her features clearly, he found that she looked a bit like his mother when she was young.

But when he thought of what happened during the Spring Festival three years ago, a hint of hatred flashed in his eyes.

He stood up, snatched Gu Xiaoxiao from Wen Zhi's arms, and walked out of the crowd.

"I don't have a sister. You're a human trafficker, don't try to be related to me!"

Seeing this, Wen Zhi wanted to pull Gu Yan aside to explain.

"Gu Yan, I really am your sister..."

Before she could finish her words, the people surrounding her blocked her in place, making it impossible for her to hold Gu Yan.

Everyone scolded her.

"Be honest!" Wen Zhi looked at Gu Xiaoxiao who was lying on Gu Yan's shoulder and said quickly: "Xiaoxiao, explain to Gu Yan quickly."

When Gu Xiaoxiao saw Wen Zhi being blamed by everyone and might even be beaten, she remembered that she had saved her brother who had a high fever and gave her porridge and meat buns.

She immediately broke free from Gu Yan's arms and went to save Wen Zhi.

Seeing that Gu Xiaoxiao kept moving around, Gu Yan was afraid that she would fall, so he quickly stabilized her body.

"Xiaoxiao, what's wrong?"

Gu Xiaoxiao's black eyes were misty and she gestured hurriedly.

[Brother, the angel sister saved you. She is a good person. She did not kidnap Xiao Xiao! ]

[My sister also gave us food and paid 20,000 yuan for my brother’s medical expenses. If it weren’t for my sister, my brother might have died yesterday! ]

Gu Yan looked at her messy gestures, but immediately understood what she said, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Xiao Xiao, are you mistaken? How could she pay for Fang Ming's medical expenses? And save Fang Ming?"

Gu Xiaoxiao was so anxious that tears welled up in her eyes and she nodded vigorously.

【Brother, it’s true! 】

At the same time, sirens were heard at the hospital entrance.

The police are coming!

When Gu Xiaoxiao saw the police coming, she immediately shook Gu Yan's arm hard, her eyes full of pleading.

Brother, save my sister~
Gu Yan understood the meaning in her eyes, turned his head and saw Wen Zhi, whose face and features were 60% similar to his mother's, being held down by the shoulders by the police.

Gu Xiaoxiao moved again and was about to jump out of his arms to save Wen Zhi.

Gu Yan gritted his teeth and turned back suddenly.

"I'm sorry, police officer. I made a mistake just now. I asked my sister and she is not a human trafficker. She is a kind-hearted person who rescued my sister from the human traffickers."

When saying this, Gu Yan never even glanced at Wen Zhi, but his tone was sincere, and he took all the blame on himself.

Upon hearing this, the police turned to look at Wen Zhi and asked seriously, "Is that so?"

Wen Zhi, who thought she was going to be arrested, slowly calmed down when she heard Gu Yan clear her of suspicion.

She raised her head, revealing her beautiful face, and forced a smile.

"Yes, police officer."

The police asked a few more questions and after confirming that it was indeed a misunderstanding, they released Wen Zhi and did not forget to give her a few words of advice.

"If you rescue someone's sister from human traffickers in the future, remember to call the police or contact the person's family. Don't make such a blunder again."

"This time the boy was reasonable and was willing to explain to you. Next time you meet someone unreasonable, you will really be imprisoned for a few days."

Wen Zhi quickly lowered her head, "Okay, I'll remember that. Sorry to bother you today."

But I couldn't help but sigh secretly in my heart.

But she never expected that her second brother would come up and say that she was a human trafficker!
After the police left, the crowd gradually dispersed.

Only Wen Zhi, Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoxiao were left standing there.

Gu Xiaoxiao jumped down from Gu Yan's arms, ran to Wen Zhi's legs, looked up at her, and made a gesture.

Wen Zhi didn't understand what it meant. She squatted down and was about to ask when she heard Gu Yan's cold voice.

"Xiaoxiao is telling you, I'm sorry."

Wen Zhi looked at Gu Xiaoxiao again and saw her nod. Then she silently memorized the gesture in her heart and rubbed Gu Xiaoxiao's head.

"It's okay, sister knows this is a misunderstanding, now it's resolved."

When Gu Yan heard the word "sister", he found it extremely harsh and unpleasant.

He grabbed Gu Xiaoxiao's hand with an unpleasant look on his face and said to Wen Zhi, "Thank you for saving my brother yesterday and taking care of Xiaoxiao for me."

"I may not be able to pay back the medical expenses you paid for us for the time being, but I will write you an IOU and then go to the construction site to earn enough money. When the time comes, I will pay you the principal plus interest, and I will not give you a penny less."

"I'm sorry about what happened just now. I misunderstood you."

After saying that, he bowed to apologize, then picked up Gu Xiaoxiao.

"Goodbye."

Without even looking at Wen Zhi, he turned and left.

He completely refused to acknowledge that Wen Zhi was his elder sister and wanted to draw a clear line between them.
