Chapter 471: 471 I’m Not Weak
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When the Tao parents received the news, Tan Ron had already finished her statement at the police station. She felt that she was already an adult and did not need her parents to be present. However, the police uncle said that she was a high school student and that her guardian had to handle this matter for her.
Tan Rou had no choice but to call her mother. When Mrs. Tao received the call from her daughter, she was so scared that she almost fainted. Just a second ago, she was about to call her daughter to ask why she was not home yet, but the next second, she received a call from the police station.
When she heard that her daughter was almost kidnapped, Mrs. Tao collapsed on the sofa. If anything happened to her precious daughter, she would definitely not let that bastard Tan Song off.
“Xiao Rou, are you alright?” In the police station, Mrs. Tao thoroughly checked her daughter. “Are you scared?”
Tan Rou shook her head. “Mom, don’t worry. I’m fine. Moreover, Tan Song was no match for me. 1 knocked down the hatchet men he hired in a few moves.”
“Where’s that bastard Tan Song?” Father Tao asked coldly.
The police officer saw that his expression was not good and said, “Mr. Tao, this is the police station. You are not allowed to do anything here. If there’s anything, let’s talk it out.”
“If a scoundrel brought a few vicious people to kidnap your daughter, would you still be able to sit here and talk to me calmly?” Mr. Tao asked.
“It would be really hard to calm down.” the police officer said awkwardly.
Father Tao continued to ask, “Where is Tan Song? 1 want to see him.”
The police did not dare to let Mr. Tao see the suspect. There were often family members who attacked the suspect out of anger. Once a family member beat up the suspect at the police station, the family member might be sued by the suspect. As policemen, they could not allow fights and trouble to appear in front of them.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Tao.” The police officer said, “We really can’t let you get close to the suspect. How about this? Now that Tan Song is locked up in the detention room, can you talk to him through the door?”
Mr. Tao only wanted to beat Tan Song up. He didn’t want anything else. Instead of letting him get angry through the door, it was better not to meet him.
Tan Rou also said, “Dad, we have all the evidence and witnesses. There’s no need for us to get ourselves into trouble. We can just meet Tan Song in court.” Since his daughter had already said so, Father Tao couldn’t say anything else. “Alright, let’s do as my daughter says.”
The police heaved a sigh of relief. If Tan Ron’s parents insisted on meeting Tan Song, they really couldn’t stop them. However, Tan Rou was really bold and meticulous. Not only was she not afraid when she encountered danger, but she also thought of a way to call the police immediately. They had to make an announcement another day to specially praise Tan Rou and set an example for the public.
Li Li kept sending messages to ask Tan Rou how she was doing. When Tan Rou came out of the police station, she replied to Li Li’s voice message immediately and told her that she had left safely.
When Zhuang Liu and Tao Zhi found out that Tan Rou was almost kidnapped, they blamed themselves. If they had come to pick Tan Rou up today, this would not have happened. Therefore, they secretly swore that no matter what happened in the company, they would not delay them from picking Tan Rou up from school.
Tan Rou felt that they were a little too nervous. Originally, there was only one person to pick her up and drop her off at school, but now there were three of them. There were several cars in front and behind to escort her.
She did not like having so many people following her, so she said to the Tao brothers and Zhuang Liu, “There are already so many of you. It’s not necessary for all of you to be here.”
Zhuang Liu said, “I don’t trust you to go alone, little one.”
This time, the Tao brothers agreed with Zhuang Liu. They had never been so united before. “Xiao Rou, Zhuang Liu is right. It’s too dangerous for you to go alone.”
“Am I hurt?” Tan Rou asked.
“Although you weren’t this time, it doesn’t mean that you would still be safe the next time.” Tao Zheng rebutted.
“Don’t worry, little sister. I will be here to protect you with my life.”
Tan Rou suddenly reached out and looked at Tao Zheng, “And how are you planning on doing that?”
Tao Zheng’s face turned red. “Hehehe…”
Tan Rou said, “I’m a girl, but my strength isn’t any weaker than a boy’s. I’m really not weak! Besides, I’m already an adult. Please give me a little more personal space..”
