Chapter 1002

1002 A Powerful Friend Gu Nianzhi applied layers of disguise on her IP address and also used a tone that completely defended the original blogger. No matter who saw the text, they would assume that this was sent by someone the original blogger sought help from.

When Cai Songyin saw this text and also heard the recording, she instantly became so angry she nearly had a heart attack. She slammed the phone down and threw a tremendous temper tantrum. Her entire person was like a balloon filled with hot air that was about to explode.

Shameless! Indecent! Despicable! Insidious villain! How dare they use my daughter to threaten me!
Cai Songyin’s entire body was trembling, the blood in her heart completely rushing to her brain. Her face turned a frightening shade of red.
Tan Guiren opened the door to see her in that state. She was shocked and called out blankly,
Mommy! What’s wrong with you?

Cai Songyin’s face twitched several times as she tried hard to make herself calm down. She put on the kindest smile, and although it was rigid, she still appeared much better than she had just now. She grabbed Tan Guiren’s hand and said with pity,
Little Darling, did I scare you?


Mommy, what happened to you? Who were you speaking with just now?
Tan Guiren glanced at the floor to see the broken phone Cai Songyin had thrown on the ground.
Did someone anger you?

Cai Songyin couldn’t think of an excuse at that moment. She only recalled watching TV that morning and seeing how Gu Nianzhi had declared she would sue her and Tan Dongbang, so she blurted out,
Right, it’s that Gu Nianzhi. She wants to sue me and your Daddy. How dare she!

Tan Guiren recalled Cai Songyin telling her to
not worry
this morning. Yet she was so angry now, Tan Guiren believed in her decision even more firmly. That meant that Gu Nianzhi wanting to sue them had truly caused her Daddy and Mommy a lot of distress. As a result, she felt that it had been absolutely right of her to go beg Gu Nianzhi today.
Tan Guiren helped Cai Songyin sit down on the single-seater sofa in the corner of the room, then poured a glass of water for her and watched her drink it.

My Little Darling is such a good girl and knows how to take care of Mommy now.
Cai Songyin only drank a glass of water, yet it tasted sweeter than honey to her. She patted Tan Guiren’s head and had her squeeze onto the sofa with her.
Tan Guiren rested her head against Cai Songyin’s shoulder and said with a smile,
Mommy, don’t worry. Miss Gu isn’t an unrighteous person, so maybe she only said it out of anger when she declared she would sue? Think about how she was assaulted. She must be feeling angry. But once she thinks it through clearly, she’ll understand that this incident doesn’t have anything to do with Mommy and Daddy. She won’t sue you guys.


It’d be good if that’s the case…
Cai Songyin smiled wryly as she patted Tan Guiren’s hand. She knew that she had raised her daughter to be so naive, so she didn’t blame her.
Tan Guiren turned around to look at Cai Songyin with a gleeful look and smiled sneakily.
Mommy, you don’t have to be afraid. When I was kidnapped in the United States, you and Daddy were powerful enough to find someone to rescue me. What is this little thing in comparison?

Cai Songyin had just been reminded of the incident of Tan Guiren’s kidnapping in the United States, so she didn’t expect Tan Guiren to bring it up again. Her expression fell as she grabbed Tan Guiren’s hand and said,
Little Darling, did you tell anyone else about what happened in the United States? Did you?!

Tan Guiren’s eyes flickered briefly.
I think so, or maybe not. I don’t remember anymore…

Seeing Cai Songyin’s burning gaze, Tan Guiren felt a bit nervous. She instinctively didn’t want Cai Songyin to know about how she spoke with Gu Nianzhi today. Gu Nianzhi said that if Tan Guiren allowed her Daddy or Mommy to find out about this, then she would continue to sue them.
In her panic, Tan Guiren exhibited her tried and tested
magical coquettish skills.
She pushed Cai Songyin’s shoulder and said,
Mommy, can you not ask me about this incident again? I feel so horrible as soon as I think about it.
As she spoke, her eyes turned red.
Cai Songyin originally thought that if Tan Guiren remembered who she said those things to, then perhaps she could find the person threatening her. But as soon as she heard Tan Guiren act coy and say she couldn’t stand it when she recalled it, she immediately decided to not let Tan Guiren listen to that recording. It would awaken those filthy memories, and Cai Songyin didn’t want her daughter to remember those days at all. That was practically asking her to suffer again and seek out more pain.
It went without saying that Gu Nianzhi had accurately gauged Cai Songyin’s mental state. Gu Nianzhi had also accurately gauged the importance of Tan Guiren in Cai Songyin’s heart.
She determined that Cai Songyin wouldn’t dare to risk her daughter’s future, so she was also certain that Tan Guiren wouldn’t reveal their day’s meeting for the time being. That was why she dared to take a two-pronged approach for the purpose of forcing out the mastermind who had strongly suggested Huo Shaoheng to Cai Songyin.
Taking Tan Guiren in her arms, Cai Songyin continuously stroked her long hair and said with pity,
Ok, ok, I won’t ask. My Little Darling is the best…
She kissed Tan Guiren’s forehead and already made up her mind.
However, Tan Guiren was pondering how she would ask the question that Gu Nianzhi wanted the answer to. She shifted her position in Cai Songyin’s arms, then pretended to ask nonchalantly,
Mommy, you have so many friends. Can’t they help Daddy? Isn’t Daddy in a lot of danger during this interim election?


Oh, I’ve already tried my best.
Cai Songyin’s expression darkened. If Tan Dongbang hadn’t cheated with Gu Yanran and had the affair recorded on video by someone, how could they possibly have fallen into the passive situation they faced today?!
Cai Songyin deeply hated the adulterers, Tan Dongbang and Gu Yanran. Aside from them being very embarrassing, they had also lowered Tan Guiren’s value in the process. Cai Songyin regretted it deeply as soon as she considered it. She really shouldn’t have acted impulsively at that time and posted the video online. She never expected there to be so many experts online who could actually recover the original video she censored!

Mommy, your friend was even able to give you advice when I was kidnapped in the United States. Why can’t they do it this time?
Tan Guiren had an idea and said voluntarily,
Mommy, which auntie was it? Tell me. I’ll go find her and beg for her help!

Cai Songyin’s mind worked. She recalled that person’s identity, and although they couldn’t help with the interim general elections, they should be completely capable of helping her investigate who sent her this recording. Cai Songyin didn’t want someone using Tan Guiren to blackmail her.
She contemplated in silence as her fingers randomly combed through Tan Guiren’s long hair. She said with a smile,
Little Darling, do you still remember Auntie Sun?


Which Auntie Sun?
Tan Guiren shook her head.
I don’t remember this person.


That’s my fault. I should allow you to get to know everyone better.
Cai Songyin pursed her lips.
But it’s not too late yet.
Standing up from the couch, Cai Songyin said to Tan Guiren,
Rest early. I’ll take you to see a friend tomorrow.

Tan Guiren stood up with delight.
That was the auntie who recommended Major General Huo to Mommy?! I must thank her properly! If it wasn’t for her, I surely wouldn’t have come home alive!

Cai Songyin nodded slightly and said with a smile,
Little Darling is really smart. That’s her.


What does Auntie Sun do? She’s so amazing!
Tan Guiren was also very excited because she didn’t expect to find out who that person was so easily. Also, she was genuinely grateful towards this Auntie Sun. It was because of her that she had the opportunity to meet Huo Shaoheng. If she could really be with Huo Shaoheng one day, then that Auntie Sun would really be their matchmaker. Tan Guiren’s thoughts ran wild, and her cheeks began to glow rosily.
Cai Songyin straightened her collar and explained patiently,
Auntie Sun is your Mom’s good friend. Her husband, Hong Kangquan, is the Director of the Secret Service. He used to be your Daddy’s colleague and is now your Daddy’s subordinate.

Sun Yuerong had to be the one to originally suggest Huo Shaoheng to Cai Songyin. Of course, she was actually helping her husband relay the message to Tan Dongbang and Cai Songyin.
Since the Director of the Secret Service, Hong Kangquan, also said that Huo Shaoheng was very powerful and would be able to safely bring Tan Guiren back to the Hua Xia Empire, Cai Songyin certainly believed it. At the time, she didn’t have any idea who Huo Shaoheng was, nor did she know how powerful he was.

The wife of the Director of the Secret Service?!
Tan Guiren exclaimed quietly,
Mommy, your friends are all so powerful!
