: Safety Guarantee
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Snowy grew up under the meticulous care of her parents. Though her mother was tough outside, she knew her mom loved her very much. Her father may straighten his face sometimes, but he had never scolded her severely. Today was the first time he had thrown a thing in front of her, even if it was just a newspaper.
Snowy was startled at first, and then her eyes filled with tears. She was just going to the dog market instead of some other extremely dangerous places. She didn’t understand why her dad was so furious.
Her mom, Shi Rong, was also shocked, and she regretted watching silently instead of intervening. It was a heartache to see her own daughter sad. She rushed over, embraced Snowy in her arms and glared at her husband.
What are you doing?! Can’t you just talk? What’s this throwing and yelling about?! Jiang Tianda, you can’t scare me!

In fact, Jiang Tianda was also regretting not being able to control his temper, but he was too embarrassed to say sorry… more importantly, if he softened his attitude, his daughter would definitely go to the dog market to do the live broadcast. What if someone hurt his baby girl?
As for the situations of the dog market, although he had somewhat exaggerated them, he was basically stating the facts.
Had anyone’s belongings been stolen? Yes!
Had anyone’s handbags and mobile phones been robbed off? Yes!
Had children been abducted, never to be found again? Yes!
Did people fight there? Yes!
Were there any surveillance camera? No!
As for the swindlers, they were ubiquitous in a market without city administration.
Located in an urban-rural fringe zone, the dog market had a dense population, high turnover, and chaotic public security. It was a place where decent people were reluctant to set foot in.
The previous locations Snowy chose for her live broadcast were in the city, and the farthest she went was just Hidden Fog Mountain, so Jiang Tianda hadn’t worried too much. But he could never let his baby girl take any risk to set foot in that filthy dog market.
Taking a few deep breaths, Jiang Tianda picked up the newspaper from the ground and said calmly and resolutely,
I should not have lost my temper. But you just can’t go to the dog market! That’s it!

Although Shi Rong was very dissatisfied with her husband’s tone and attitude, she was more concerned for her daughter than anything else. She agreed with her husband and whispered to her daughter in her arms,
Snowy, listen to your dad for once. Don’t go to the dog market. Stay at home, will you? I have baked your favorite egg tarts.

Snowy did not understand. She was just trying to do the right thing, exposing the conscienceless dog peddlers so that people like Deng Jie wouldn’t fall for their traps again. Why were her parents so strongly against that?
She wiped her eyes, kept silent for a moment, and pushed away her mother gently,
Dad, Mom, I know you care about me, but I’ve grown up, I’m no longer a kid. I know what is right and what is wrong.

With a pause, she looked straight in her father’s eyes, and said in a likewise calm and determined tone,
I want to do the right thing.

Her voice was not loud, but was very persuasive.
Jiang Tianda and Shi Rong looked at each other astoundingly, wondering since when their daughter had grown such a strong sense of justice. In their minds, their daughter was still a wild girl goofing off all day.

Besides, I’m not going there by myself. The manager of the pet shop where I bought Snow ball will go with me… Do you know? He’s by no means an ordinary person. He is amazing. He once beat up seven criminals by himself in total darkness!

To prove her words, Snowy picked up the tablet which her mom used for watching soap operas on the tea table, found the video and showed it to them.
On the event that happened at the pet shop that night, Jiang Tianda had heard a bit about it, while Shi Rong had no knowledge of it. Staring at the video where Zhang Zian had easily defeated seven criminals, who were thrown out of the pet shop and lay unconscious on the ground, her mom and her dad were dumbfounded.

This video must be fake!
doubted Shi Rong. She felt it was an incredible scene from a movie.

It’s true, many people can prove it, and some people have even begged him to accept them as disciples!
Snowy pulled her mother’s hand and begged her,
Mom, please rest assured, no one can hurt your daughter if this man accompanies me. Please! Let me go there!

Shi Rong looked at her husband for a decision,
What do you think?

Jiang Tianda knew this video was true. He had recognized Zhang Zian and the pet shop. Although he was reluctant to believe that the obnoxious and pretentious store manager was a Wing Chun Kung Fu Master, the facts were there.
He pondered for a moment and put forward a very unexpected condition,
If you must go there, call this guy and ask him to guarantee your safety for me.


What?
Snowy talked back recalcitrantly,
How can you ask a person unrelated to you to guarantee that?!

Jiang Tianda interrupted her and said without compromise,
No discussion! If he is really that powerful as shown in the video, then protecting a girl is only a piece of cake for him. If he can’t promise, then he was just bluffing!

Snowy looked at her mother seeking for help, but Shi Rong remained silent.

Well… I will try. I’m not sure if he will agree…
Snowy pulled out her phone hesitantly.

If he doesn’t agree, you can’t go!
Jiang Tianda was determined.
Snowy bit her lips and hesitated for a while. Then, she dialed the phone number of Zhang Zian.

Hello? Mr. Store Manager, this is Snowy…! What are you doing right now…
her phone was grabbed by her father before she was able to finish her introduction.
Cold-faced, Jiang Tianda turned on the speaker of the phone,
Hey! This is Snowy’s father, are you the owner of Amazing Fate Pet Shop?

Zhang Zian was startled,
Yes. Hello.


My daughter said she is going to host a live broadcast in the dog market with you. Do you realize it will possibly cause troubles?

Zhang Zian went silent for a few seconds and said,
I know. I told her not to go.


But she insists on going there,
said Jiang Tianda.
As her father, I want to know if you can guarantee the safety of her trip. If not, tell her yourself and let her completely dispel the idea.

There was silence for a moment. Zhang Zian said,
Okay, let me talk to Snowy…

Jiang Tianda was relieved. It seemed like Zhang Zian was going to talk her out of the idea.

We are on speaker mode. Just go ahead.
Jiang Tianda looked at Snowy.
Snowy was biting her lower lip. She felt uncomfortable and embarrassed for involving Zhang Zian into this.
Suddenly, a few loud barking sounds were heard over the phone.

Woof! Woof!


Uh… ah? Oh, okay…

After talking to someone, Zhang Zian seemed to have changed his mind,
Well, I promise you, I will guarantee the safety of Snowy.


Great! Great!

Snowy couldn’t help but shout and jump for joy!

You must keep your word!
She stared at her father and said,
No cheating!

Jiang Tianda and Shi Rong looked at each other in puzzlement, wondering who had changed the store manager’s mind.

All right, you can go, but you must take care of yourself.
Jiang Tianda sighed, hung up the phone, and gave the phone back to Snowy.
Snowy promised him immediately, as if in fear of her parents might regret it at any time. She grabbed her phone and ran out the door quickly.

Why did you let her go? What if she encounters danger?
asked Shi Rong in concern.
Jiang Tianda waved his hand, indicating that she should stay quiet for a minute. He pulled out his cell phone and dialed the number of his neighbor.

Hello? Jin Er? It’s me, Old Jiang! Don’t you dare hang up on me! I have something serious to talk to you about!
Jiang Tianda lost his demeanor as a president of a big company.
Jin Er smiled bitterly,
Old Jiang, stop teasing me! How on Earth would you need my help? Is it an excuse to fool me and punch me?


Bullt! You are full of dog fur, and I don’t want to get my hands dirty!
After the trash talk, Jiang Tianda went back to his point,
You are familiar with security companies, right?


Yes.
Jin Er was surprised,
You know I am in the jewelry industry, so I am close to the bosses of security companies. What’s wrong?


Well, Snowy is going to host a live broadcast in the dog market in Nancheng District. Can you help me find a capable bodyguard to follow her secretly, only to help her out if she can’t get rid of trouble herself?

Jiang Tianda seldom asked others to do him any favors, and he especially didn’t want help from Jin Er. But considering it was an emergency and Jin Er’s rapport with security companies, he had to do so.
Jin Er agreed without hesitation,
Old Jiang, leave it to me, I like Snowy very much, and I won’t let anything happen to her. I’m calling the CEO of one security company now, and I’ll ask him to send over his own top-notch bodyguard, a retired instructor from the national SWAT team!

Jiang Tianda was finally relieved hearing this,
Thank you. Snowy is on her way to the Amazing Fate Pet Shop. Let’s have dinner sometime, my treat.


Forget it. You stingy man might ask me to pay for my own dinner after I go,
said Jin Er in a joking manner.
Later.

After hanging up the phone, Jin Er patted Good-for-Nothing lying beside him and said emotionally,
Look at those parents who have to worry for their children all the time! It’s better to be single! Don’t you think so, Good-for-Nothing?

With a big drumstick in its mouth, Good-for-Nothing just whimpered blankly.

Pfft! What a foodie! Can’t you just put more energy into training?
said Jin Er exasperatedly and pointed to Good-for-Nothing’s nose as a warning,
If you don’t behave in training, I will send you to the pet shop one day. The pet shop owner is an expert in cat training, perhaps he can train dogs, too?
