Chapter 36: Human...human traffickers?
real world!
Not long after Lin Ye returned, he received a call from his cousin.
Thinking of his cousin, Lin Ye smiled.
He has a very good relationship with his cousin.
When he was in high school, his parents died in a car accident. Without his parents, every time he went home during the holidays, his aunt would call him to her house for dinner.
Because of the death of his parents, Lin Ye has a deep understanding of the warmth and coldness of family relationships.
His uncle, a relative on his mother's side, also took good care of him. Every time they visited him at school, they would give him some pocket money. However, because his uncle had two children of his own and because of his aunt, he usually would not take his uncle's money.
The compensation from his parents' car accident was enough to cover his daily expenses.
In addition to his uncle, he also had an aunt who was also very kind to him. However, his aunt died of illness the year after his parents died unexpectedly, and since then he has had less contact with his aunt's family.
He has an uncle on his dad's side, but his uncle moved to another city a few years ago. After his parents had a car accident, his uncle arranged a funeral and asked him to live with them. He was originally tempted, but one night he heard his aunt complaining about his uncle in private, and he finally gave up.
Uncles love their nephews, aunts love their nephews, and aunts are outsiders.
The aunt’s love is not called love. When the aunt passes away, the love is severed.
Sometimes Lin Ye thinks that this old saying does make some sense.

"Nuan Nuan, your cousin is really as handsome as you said."
"Didn't you see the photo?"
“Can you trust the photo?”
"You think my cousin is you? It takes five minutes to take a photo and an hour to edit it. I took the photo and I guarantee that it is the original one without any modification."
In a dessert shop in a shopping mall, Zhang Nuannuan and her bestie were chatting boredly. Yes, she made an appointment with her cousin this time, not only because she hadn't seen him for a long time, but also because she wanted to introduce him to a girlfriend.
There's no way, my mother at home is pushing me too hard and cares about this matter more than she does about me.
Aren't other people concerned about whether their children have found a partner? But my mother is different. She only cares about my cousin and doesn't even ask whether I have a partner.
Zhang Nuannuan couldn't understand this, but Lin Ye understood why his aunt was anxious.
The passing of one's parents is a plus for a young girl. The death of both parents means that there will be no conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the future, and she can make her own decisions on everything.
But my aunt and her friends are experienced people, and they understand the hearts of the elders better. Parents all hope that their daughters will marry into a happy family.
Having both parents dead seems good, but it also means that the couple will have to rely on themselves to make a living in the future. Without the help of their parents, there will be fewer visits to relatives. Take raising children for example. Both young people have to work, and there will be no one to help take care of the children after they are born. Either one of them quits his job or hires a nanny.
As elders, very few would want their daughters to marry boys whose parents are divorced or have passed away.
Another reason is that without the restraint of parents, it is easy to develop the habit of spending money lavishly when entering society.
My sister-in-law knows all this, so she is so anxious to find a good girlfriend and get married as soon as possible. This way, she can start a family and have a wife to look after her, so she won't spend money recklessly.
It was because he understood his aunt's intentions that every time his cousin introduced a girl to him, he would not refuse and would go to meet her. Unfortunately, after meeting several girls, he was unable to conclude the relationship with any of them.
It’s not that the girls are not good-looking. The girls introduced by my cousin are all very good. It is precisely because of their excellent conditions that Lin Ye knows from looking at their clothes and consumption concepts that they are not from the same world.
He was a newly graduated student, and his monthly salary was only over 7,000 yuan, but this amount was only enough for these girls to go shopping and buy a set of cosmetics.
Those girls who liked him were just attracted by his face and his body.
The novelty wears off and you'll eventually break up.
A girl may not be sensible, but he must understand.
…
…
Henderson Plaza!
When Lin Ye arrived at the square, he coincidentally met the little boy and girl again.
The little boy stood there with a stubborn expression on his face while the little girl held his hand. In front of them, an adult man and woman had different expressions.
The man was the little boy's father, and his expression was cold. The woman next to him was a little flustered, especially when the people watching were pointing and talking, which made her look even uglier.
"Brother, what's going on?" Lin Ye curiously asked a man who was watching nearby.
"What else could have happened? His wife was still dead, but he took his new lover out shopping and was discovered and blocked by his son."
Lin Ye actually guessed it in his heart, he just asked to confirm his guess. He had a premonition in his mind since he met the man and the little boy in the cemetery.
"Bang Bang, are you following me?"
The man asked in a deep voice, not caring at all about the pointing of the onlookers.
The boy was a little scared when his father asked him this. But the little girl stood in front of the boy and looked up: "I came here with Bangbang. You promised Bangbang's mother that you would take good care of Bangbang, but now you not only found a dirty woman outside, but also ignored Bangbang."
Hearing the word "dirty ", the woman's face flashed with resentment, but when she raised her head, she returned to normal and explained, "Boss Chen and I are just work partners. This time, Boss Chen has to attend a meeting, so I came to pick out some clothes for him."
"Humph, a vixen is a vixen. My mom said that apart from wives picking out clothes for their husbands, if other women pick out clothes for men, then they have ulterior motives and are vixens."
The woman could no longer stand being bullied by the little girl, and looked towards the man next to her, hoping that he could help her out. However, to her disappointment, the man just looked at his son, as if he was not aware of her current predicament at all .
"go back!"
The man looked at the little boy in a deep voice. The boy was a little scared, but seeing the encouraging look from the little girl, he mustered up the courage and said, "I won't go. It's you who is sorry for mom."
Snapped!
When the man's slap landed, everyone at the scene was stunned. No one expected that a man would hit his own son.
The little boy was stunned, and the little girl was the first to react. She raised her little fist and hit the man.
"You bad guy, you ungrateful man, how dare you bully Bang Bang."
The man frowned and took a few steps back to avoid it. At this moment, Lin Ye, who was standing aside and watching, suddenly looked in one direction.
There, stood a woman in a white dress.
However, the cold aura emanating from the woman at this moment made Lin Ye a little frightened.
Lin Ye hesitated for just a second, and the next moment he suddenly picked up Bang Bang and ran away like a gust of wind.
This scene shocked everyone present.
Human...human traffickers?
Are there still such open human traffickers nowadays?
