Jiang Yao listened to the news attentively. She had heard of similar reportsit would appear once or twice a year in almost every place. She had never known anyone who was involved in the incident; it was always only a story. However, when she heard about what had happened to Major Zhu's family and that they had lost three children, she felt terrified.
"Yes, someone must have followed the children closely," Jiang Yao said. "When I was young, my mother was always afraid that my siblings and I would get kidnapped by human traffickers. When we were young, she would keep her eyes on us and constantly tell us not to talk to strangers. Even if we were to starve to our death, we should not eat the food they gave to us."
"There are those who wanted children, and there are those who wanted a wife. If no one takes down these human traffickers, then this matter will never end." Lu Xingzhi smiled. "My wife must be brilliant; she didn't get kidnapped when she was young."
"Yes, Jiang Yao is smart. But didn't you target when she had only just grown up?" Mrs Lin teased him.
Xiao Wei, who was listening to the conversation, was confused. "Then, when I grow up, can I still get a wife?"
It was only one sentence, but everyone at the table burst into laughter. Colonel Lin laughed loudly. "Well, that would depend on your ability. Your father and Uncle Lu were very capable; we managed to get our wives. If you can't get girls to like you, then you won't be able to get a wife."
"Dad, Mom, I'm sorry. Then you might not be able to get a daughter-in-law for the rest of your life." Xiao Wei's little face fell. "Not many girls in my class like me. They think that my pet is strange."
"Maybe you'll marry someone who has the same hobby as you!" Jiang Yao laughed. She held her stomach, and her whole body was almost on top of Lu Xingzhi.
