Yan Shanyue rushed to the coffee shop. One was her daughter and the other was her son.

They were both her family.

Yan Shanyue felt that she was put in a spot.

She was worried that if something happened to Mai Yatang, it would be difficult for Mingzhu and Qie Yiyan to get along in the future.

"Mom, I had no idea what they were going to do with Mai Yatang."

Yan Shanyue said softly, "Don't worry. Everything will be okay."

Mingzhu covered her face with her hands. Tears started flowing down her face.

Yan Shanyue let out a long sigh as she stroked Mingzhu's hand gently.

"Mom... if something happens to Mai Yatang, Yiyan will surely blame me for it! I come from a dubious background. Even if I tell them I'm innocent, nobody will believe me!"

Mingzhu could not help but worry about this.

Ye Zhizhou would not let her off.

She was not stupid enough to believe that Ye Zhizhou could not like her.

The real question was what she could do now.

She did not want to lose Qie Yiyan as a brother.

She did not want to lose anyone from her family.

"I know you've done nothing wrong. Mingzhu, don't worry. Mom believes you. I'm sure your brother will believe you too."

Meanwhile, Li Qingcang ran up to Qie Yiyan. "I watched surveillance footage from a clothing store. I found Mai Yatang inside."

Li Qingcang told Qie Yiyan to look at the surveillance camera, where he saw Mai Yatang talking to an old lady before walking out with her.

"That's the back of the street."

Qie Yiyan and Li Qingcang ran towards Mai Yatang and the old lady. They arrived at an eatery two blocks away from the mall.

"Open the door."

Qie Yiyan knocked on the door and said in a harsh and loud voice, "Quick, open the door!"

When Mai Yatang heard Qie Yiyan's voice, she smiled happily. "Yiyan, I'm here."

Qie Yiyan felt relieved when he heard Mai Yatang's voice.

Li Qingcang gestured to Qie Yiyan and went around the door of the eatery.

He was afraid that the other party might know that they were approaching and would attempt to take Mai Yatang away.

Qie Yiyan pushed open the door and saw Mai Yatang being tied on a chair.

There were five fingerprints on Mai Yatang's face.

The sight caused anger to well up in his chest.

He could not even bear to hurt his Mai Yatang.

How could those people lay their fingers on her?

"Don't come near her."

A middle-aged woman wearing an apron held a kitchen knife in her hand, its blade pointed at Mai Yatang's neck.

Her wrinkled face was lined with fear.

Her family had owned the eatery for many years.

On the surface, her family seemed to run an ordinary eatery. it looked like an eatery. In reality, they were operating as human traffickers.

They would look for young, beautiful girls in big cities and sell them to the villagers in the countryside where they would become child-bearing machines for the bachelors.

Over the past years, they had sold thousands of young girls.

As it was a big city, people were always moving around.

Nobody would notice when the girls disappeared.

Besides, the girls were sent to the countryside in the mountains where there were no roads going into the villages. The girls could not escape even if they wanted to.

"Don't move. If you take another step forward, I'll kill her."

The woman's hand was trembling.

Anxious to save Mai Yatang, Qie Yiyan did not think about it too much. He charged forward and knocked the old woman onto the ground.

"Yiyan, what do you mean by that?"
