For safety reasons, they did not return to the capital in a high-profile manner, but took the train back. Xiao Jinchu booked a carriage. As soon as he entered the carriage, he was unwilling to talk and move, and he maintained that posture for almost four or five hours.
Li Jiancheng had never seen Xiao Jinchu like this before, and he always felt that he was worried about something.
I don't know what happened to Xiao Jinchu...
Not to mention Li Jiancheng, Fan Zhiqiang also noticed it, because he had been staying up late for several days and fell asleep in such a bumpy environment on the train in less than a moment. He slowly woke up four or five hours later, rubbed his sleepy eyes, glanced at Xiao Jinchu, and then asked curiously: "Brother Li, what happened to my master?"
"Your master..." Li Jiancheng scratched his hair and ears, "I guess he is unhappy."
"We will be able to see Master's Wife soon, so why is Master still unhappy?"
"Why?" Li Jiancheng always felt that Fan Zhiqiang was like a boy. He wouldn't understand even if he talked to him, so he told him to go back to bed. Fan Zhiqiang was unhappy. The more others told him to go to bed, the more unwilling he became. He just got up and walked to Xiao Jinchu's side.
"Hey, little brat, don't ask for a beating!" Li Jiancheng couldn't stop him.
Fan Zhiqiang sat next to Xiao Jinchu and looked at him carefully, only to find that he seemed very uneasy at this moment.
A pair of eyes that never blinked seemed to hide a huge whirlpool, the tightly pursed lips were like a bow bent to the extreme, and the eyebrows were wrinkled even deeper.
"Master, aren't you going to take a rest? We'll be busy when we get to the capital." Fan Zhiqiang's words broke the cold barrier on his body. Xiao Jinchu slowly turned his head, and the coldness in the depths of his eyes slowly faded away, replaced by a scorching warmth, just like the sealed devil slowly waking up, and even his voice had his own magnetism, "Yeah."
"Master, what are you thinking about?"
"Your master's wife." Xiao Jinchu said without hesitation.
He was thinking about Yan Shuhua. From the moment he left Xiaowa Village, what kept appearing in his mind was Yan Shuhua's shadow and some of the words she had said.
The prescription Yan Shuhua left for him was actually a code. They had discussed how to crack the code before, so he extracted the most important information: "Xiao family villa, the second young master has great ambitions."
Although we did not see Yan Shuhua's expression when he left this secret code, we can mostly guess that Yan Shuhua sat by the window like this and did not sleep all night because he was thinking about his own danger.
Yan Shuhua could sense that Xiao Yanmin had great ambitions, so one could imagine how reckless he was in the capital. And if he wanted to control Xiao Yanmin and hold power in his hands again, it was really not as easy as he imagined.
"Master, when Master's Wife sent you to the train, I felt how sad she was. But she was really brave, you know? She was the same age as me, and she was still a girl. She was really brave. Not only did she almost meet a liar, but she was not afraid of being bullied."
Fan Zhiqiang's words were like a knife stabbing his heart: "You finally understand how difficult it is for your master's wife."
"It's not easy for Master's wife, and it's not easy for you, Master!" Fan Zhiqiang sighed heavily, "After this matter is resolved, Master and Master's wife will definitely love each other for the rest of their lives!"
When Xiao Jinchu saw Fan Zhiqiang's innocent smile, ripples suddenly appeared on his lips.
"Knock knock knock..." The door of the carriage was knocked. Fan Zhiqiang walked over cautiously, but did not open the door. Instead, he asked, "Who?"
"Steward, do you want to order food?" A male voice came from outside. Fan Zhiqiang heard that it was the food delivery man. Thinking that no one had eaten yet, he asked them if they wanted to eat. However, Xiao Jinchu and Li Jiancheng shook their heads, so Fan Zhiqiang replied, "No."
After the flight attendant who delivered the meal left, there was another knock on the door. Fan Zhiqiang was still alert: "Who?"
"Ticket check."
Li Jiancheng was lying on the bed with one leg bent on the bed. He was startled by the knock on the door at first, but when he heard that the other party was a ticket inspector, he put away his vigilance. Xiao Jinchu had closed his eyes to rest because his eyes were tired from staring for too long.
Fan Zhiqiang slowly opened the door and saw a man outside wearing a flight attendant's uniform with a large green backpack on his chest. He held a notebook and a pen in his hands, looking very focused on checking tickets.
Seeing this, Fan Zhiqiang let the person in.
After the man came in, his sharp eyes first moved away from Fan Zhiqiang, looked at Li Jiancheng on the berth, and then fell on Xiao Jinchu who was sitting by the window.
Probably because the man's gaze was too intense, Xiao Jinchu opened his eyes instantly. When he opened his eyes, he happened to see the man avoiding his gaze, and then handed him the book: "Show me your tickets."
Fan Zhiqiang flipped through the three sleeper tickets.
The man walked up to him with Xiao Jinchu's ticket, then reached into his backpack and said nonchalantly, "Xiao Jinchu, lift your face up so I can check the ticket..."
Just when Xiao Jinchu looked up and realized it was him, and when he handed the ticket back to him, the hand in the backpack came out, and a black thing was pointed at Xiao Jinchu...
In a flash, Xiao Jinchu grabbed his wrist, and the pistol was flicked aside before it could fire a bullet. It fell to the floor with a clang. Fan Zhiqiang took a closer look and found that it was a pistol! The man realized that he was discovered, so he took out a sharp knife from his waist the next second and prepared to stab Xiao Jinchu again.
At this time, Li Jiancheng jumped down from the berth and knocked him down from behind at the fastest speed! The man was injured from behind, and when he was about to stand up again, the black pistol was already against his forehead.
Fan Zhiqiang was still in a daze, totally unaware of what was happening. He saw that the man didn't have any ill intentions, so how could he be the one sent to assassinate his master?
