Chapter 295: Two hundred ninety-five Tangtang’s birthday is coming up_1

Seeing President Gu ready to leave, the lawyer hurriedly said, "Good, then I’ll send you the address. Two o’clock, don’t be late."

...

Ji Pianran had just gotten up.

She reached under her pillow for her phone, initially to check the time, but when her gaze fell on the date, she realized it was already March 29th and frowned.

Tangtang’s birthday was on the 31st, which meant The Day After Tomorrow.

In the past few years, when times were tough, the little one never really had a birthday celebration, but this time she was determined to give her daughter a proper birthday party.

But now, with President Gu being so busy, she didn’t know if he would have time for his daughter’s birthday.

After washing his face, President Gu walked out of the bathroom and, seeing Ji Pianran with a face full of concerns, couldn’t help but ask, "What’s wrong?"

Fearing she might wake Tangtang, Ji Pianran whispered, "The day after tomorrow is Tangtang’s birthday. I was wondering if we could make it back?"

If they couldn’t return, celebrating in Huacheng was also an option.

But she had another idea, which was to buy a video camera to record Tangtang’s growth.

She wanted to capture all of the child’s milestones to reminisce when she grew up.

In the past, she didn’t dare to dream of such things; back then, having enough food and clothing was the greatest happiness.

But now, their circumstances had improved, and affording a video camera was not a problem.

Upon hearing that Tangtang’s birthday was nearing,

President Gu was startled and immediately took out his phone, clearly seeing the date written as the 29th.

He couldn’t help but exclaim, "It really is."

After his exclamation, he glanced at the soundly sleeping little baby on the bed and guilt began to well up inside him.

As he started to earn money and got busier with each passing day, he had almost forgotten such an important event.

Remembering the words she had said in the hospital in his previous life, he felt a twinge of pain in his heart again.

This was his treasure, after all.

There were still two days left, everything was still manageable.

He was determined to give his daughter an unforgettable birthday.

Seeing his solemn expression, Ji Pianran assumed that President Gu was feeling remorseful for being busy and possibly not being able to celebrate their daughter’s birthday.

She got out of bed, stretching her slender and fair arms, and gently patted President Gu’s shoulder as if to comfort him.

"It’s alright, if you’re busy, I can celebrate with her."

She spoke tenderly, her tone sincere, without a hint of complaint.

She too wanted to give her daughter a complete birthday with both parents by her side, but President Gu was busy—he was busy for their family. Compared to before, their life had improved a lot.

President Gu hadn’t expected Ji Pianran would think like this, observing the sincerity in her eyes.

He found it both heart-wrenching and amusing.

President Gu rubbed the tip of her nose lightly, "Silly, no matter how busy, we must celebrate our child’s birthday! I was just thinking about what kind of gift to give her."

What should he give?

Toys, clothes?

They’re nice, but not very meaningful. If we’re talking about meaning, then it must be education, as only education will stay with a child for life.

Tangtang was turning three, which meant it was time for kindergarten. Maybe they should buy a house with a kindergarten nearby, and they could all move to the city. This way, it would be convenient for the child to go to school.

It must be near a park so she could play easily!

"I want to buy a camera to record the child’s life," Ji Pianran said softly and sweetly. After speaking, she raised her head, her eyes earnestly looking into President Gu’s, full of seriousness.

President Gu nodded, "Alright, after breakfast, we’ll go!"

He fully supported her idea; he also hoped to preserve their child’s precious moments from her younger years.

Beautiful memories are the most valuable things in a person’s life, not something money can buy.

Seeing President Gu agree, Ji Pianran nodded happily.

She looked as joyful as a child.

At this moment, Tangtang on the bed opened her eyes finally, after a glimpse at the two people, amid her depression.

She sat up, rubbed her eyes, and then raised her little hands, coquettishly asking President Gu for a hug.

"Daddy, hug~"

Seeing his daughter’s adorable manner, President Gu hurried over and took Tangtang into his arms, "Shall we get up and go out to play?"

...

After Tangtang got up, the family went for breakfast, followed by buying a video camera at the mall.

At 2 P.M., under Ji Pianran’s strong insistence, the family of three went to the courthouse.

The lawyer had been waiting at the door for them.

Seeing the family approaching, he hurried over to greet them, "President Gu, let’s go in."

President Gu nodded and walked in with Ji Pianran and Tangtang.

There were ten minutes left before the court session was to start, and President Gu and the lawyer took their places as the plaintiffs.

Ji Pianran sat in the audience with Tangtang in her arms.

Having expected the courtroom to be nearly empty, Ji Pianran was completely shocked when she walked in.

All but one seat at the back on the five rows were filled with people.

Ji Pianran sat down with Tangtang in her arms.

Next to her was a middle-aged auntie with thick eyebrows and big eyes, though her complexion was quite poor.

Seeing that Ji Pianran came with a child, she scooted over and asked softly, "Has your family also been scammed?"

Ji Pianran nodded, "Yes."

Hearing that Ji Pianran’s family had been scammed too, the woman instantly opened up.

"That bastard really deserves to die. My son was only eighteen when he was duped into joining a pyramid scheme. If it hadn’t been for this capture, who knows how much longer my poor son would have been deceived!"

As she spoke, those in front instantly felt a surge of empathy, turning towards Guo Ahli with indignant faces.

"My son-in-law was also tricked by that bastard. The whole family pitched in quite a sum—more than a hundred thousand! I’m here today to get our money back!"

"Yesterday, the police station called me to come to Huacheng to identify someone. My daughter... she was fine when she arrived, but now she’s gone insane..." a man in his forties said, his voice heavy at first, but by the end, his eyes were frighteningly red.

"This Huang indeed deserves to die, having harmed so many people. Today, we’re here to demand justice!"

"Yes, we want justice!"

A group of people spoke with righteous indignation.

These were the family members of the victims, and even some of the victims themselves, who had come to personally denounce his crimes!

This man named Huang was simply inhuman!

"Sister, seeing how young you are, and by your looks, it must’ve been your husband who was scammed, right?"

Hearing this, Ji Pianran shook her head, "No, it was my older brother. My husband and I came here to find him."

Hearing it was about finding her brother, several people were immediately shocked.

The comrades from the police station had said, it was a person from out of town who came looking for his brother and ended up busting the pyramid scheme.

This person not only saved his own brother but also rescued dozens of other families!

"So, it’s you guys! We are so grateful. Good people will be rewarded, good people will be rewarded!"

The middle-aged woman next to Ji Pianran heard that her husband was the hero who had destroyed the pyramid scheme.

Intent on offering comfort, she stood up and bowed to her at ninety degrees.
