Chapter 304 - How he had grown. (3)
As she spoke, she wiped away her tears, picked up the pouch from the ground, and walked over to where Tong Jiaxin was earlier. In her milky voice, she threatened Tong Jiaxin viciously, “Mianmian will kill the Japanese Third Brother!”
Tong Jiaxin made a face at her. “Oh yeah? Show me what you got!”
Tong Mianmian threw a pouch forcefully. The pouch flew out and landed on the ground with a loud SMACK.
It landed right in front of her feet.
The surrounding went silent.
Tong Jiaxin busted out laughing the next second. “AHAHAHAHA. That was so funny. Mianmian, you can’t even throw it 10 cm away……”
The little bun’s face turned beet red, but she stubbornly held back her tears. She picked the pouch up and tried again, but she was never able to get it very far.
Xiao Jiu suddenly ran over to Tong Mianmian. Stopping in front of her, he said to her, “Big Sister, throw at me!”
Tong Mianmian thought about it some and tossed the pouch at him gently.
Xiao Jiu pinched his lips shut and said, “Ow, I’m hit!”
Tong Mianmian burst out laughing. Her two little dimples could be seen, making her look charming and extremely cute.
Aye, little boys and girls were the cutest.
Tong Xuelu felt that some people were just born with high EQ, like Xiao Jiu, while others were destined to be single for life, like Tong Jiaxin.
She was just going to bring all her stuff to the kitchen when she heard knocking coming from behind her.
“Are you home, Comrade Tong?”
Tong Xuelu lifted her brows. It was Officer Zhang.
Was Officer Zhang over here because there were new developments in the case?
She turned to get the door. When the door opened, she saw 4 ~ 5 men standing outside.
Except for Officer Zhang, all the other men looked very emotional.
Tong Xuelu had it all figured out instantly.
Officer Zhang smiled and said, “I’m so glad you are home, Comrade Tong!”
Tong Xuelu nodded in acknowledgement. “Were you able to locate Xiao Jiu’s family?”
Officer Zhang nodded. “Yes, Xiao Jiu’s parents came to file a police report. I brought them over here after I had confirmed their identities.”
As soon as he finished talking, a man who looked to be around 28 ~ 29 years old walked up and said, “Comrade Tong, I am Su Yueshen, Xiao Jiu’s father. Thank you so much for taking care of Xiao Jiu for us!”
Having said that, he bowed down deeply at Tong Xuelu.
Tong Xuelu eyed the man in front of her. She must admit, the man in front of her was very handsome. The kind of handsomeness with good temperament.
His lips were thin, and his nose was tall. He wore a pair of golden wired frame spectacles. His phoenix eyes under his lens looked just like Xiao Jiu’s. Of course, compared to Xiao Jiu, the man in front of her looked sharp like an eagle.
But she had heard Xiao Jiu mentioning in the past that his family name was Gu. This man in front of her had the surname Su. There was certainly something going on here.
Tong Xuelu asked in a straightforward manner, “May I ask why you waited this long to file a police report?”
Had Xiao Jiu not ran into her that day, with the speed of their actions, he would be long gone by now.
Su Yueshen was candid with her. He gave her a short version of what had happened.
“…… It was an error in judgment on their part. Which was why we didn’t go to the police until I returned to the capital city. I apologize for all the trouble caused, and I appreciate everything that you have done for Xiao Jiu.”
He bowed down to Tong Xuelu once again as he spoke.
Tong Xuelu’s lips twitched when she listened to Su Yueshen recounting the event.
She had no idea what was going through the minds of the members of the Gu family.
They were totally fooled by someone close to them. More importantly, they didn’t even figure that out after 10 days!
It would still be going on had Su Yueshen not returned!
She was speechless just thinking about that.
Luckily, Xiao Jiu was nothing like his mother. He probably got his high EQ from his dad.
Tong Xuelu looked over at the two men behind Su Yueshen. The two men blushed and lowered their heads.
Tong Xuelu opened the door all the way and showed the people in.
