Lu Yu closed his eyes and tried to feel the warmth and strength from his family. His eyes couldn't help but become slightly moist.
"Thank you, my dear children. Because you are by my side, I will not be afraid no matter how rough the road ahead."
Lu Yu's voice trembled slightly, with a barely perceptible sob, but more of it was his unwavering belief and deep gratitude towards the children.
As time passed quietly, the night fell like a huge piece of black velvet, slowly covering the entire town.
At this time, every household in the town lit up their lights. Looking from a distance, the twinkling lights intertwined together, forming a beautiful picture of warmth and peace.
Lu Yu, Qin Wan, and the children sat around the dining table, enjoying a simple yet loving dinner. Several home-cooked dishes were placed on the table, steaming hot and fragrant.
As the family ate and talked, their topics revolved around plans for the future. Sometimes they would envision beautiful dreams, and sometimes they would share the joys and sorrows of life.
In this small space, they rely on each other, become each other's strongest backing, and bravely face the ups and downs of life together.
When the sumptuous dinner came to an end, Qin Wan gave Lu Yuwei a meaningful look without leaving any trace.
Lu Yu and her had been married for many years, so he naturally understood what she meant instantly - he knew very well that his beloved wife was ready to go out again.
He said nothing, but nodded slightly to show that he understood.
In fact, he was immersed in depression at the moment, and he thought it was not a bad idea for his wife to go out and vent her emotions.
Recalling the interrogation of the arrested human traffickers during the day, Lu Yu participated in the entire process.
The truth revealed by those extremely hateful human traffickers is simply outrageous! It turns out that these guys not only engage in such unscrupulous activities as trafficking women and children, but also sell precious cultural relics on a large scale;
What is even more infuriating is that they often deliberately create various vicious accidents in an attempt to frame honest people in various government departments, thus bringing countless troubles to the entire society and the country.
The staff members who were in charge of interrogating them at the time were so angry that their chests heaved violently and their lungs were about to explode.
If it weren't for the strict discipline, those angry soldiers would have been unable to suppress their anger and would have killed these scum.
As the clock slowly pointed to nine o'clock in the evening, night fell quietly and the whole city seemed to quiet down all of a sudden.
Qin Wan carefully picked up the already asleep child and placed him in a special space prepared in advance. Lu Yu followed closely behind, his movements swift and gentle.
Immediately afterwards, the two of them rushed towards the secluded courtyard where they had successfully captured the human traffickers last night like an arrow.
After arriving at the destination, Qin Wan, with his keen insight and extraordinary intuition, quickly discovered some clues in this seemingly ordinary courtyard.
After a careful search, she indeed found several valuable antique vases and other items...
While picking up bargains, Qin Wan noticed that Lu Yu's expression gradually warmed up, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She deeply understood the sadness that Lu Yu expressed when he was heartbroken. It was an unspeakable pain that came from deep within his heart.
However, although she could empathize with him, she did not agree with him indulging in it.
After all, the road of life is long and full of variables. People always need to move forward bravely and never let their emotions stay in the pain of the past forever. Otherwise, it will not only hurt themselves, but may also affect the people around them who care about them.
At first glance, a night seems extremely long, especially when thoughts are complicated and diverse, every minute and every second seems to be infinitely stretched.
But in reality, time flies by like a flash. When Qin Wan slowly woke up from her dream, the sun was shining brightly outside the window.
At this time, Lu Yu and Aunt Yu had already finished their work, and the four lovely children had also packed up everything and stood there neatly, waiting only for Qin Wan.
Seeing this scene, Qin Wan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she blamed Lu Yu coquettishly: "Hey, you guy, why didn't you wake me up earlier? Everyone is waiting for me alone, it's so embarrassing!"
Facing Qin Wan's scolding, Lu Yu just smiled slightly, and then gently comforted her:
"Don't worry about it. You've been overworked these past two days. It's good to get some more sleep. Besides, there's still some time before we leave for the island, so there's no need to rush."
Lu Yu's gentle words were like a breeze blowing through Qin Wan's heart, but they did not bring her any comfort.
She jumped out of bed in a panic, put on her clothes hastily and ran straight to the dining table.
She wolfed down her breakfast quickly, then rushed to Lu Yu like a gust of wind and said hurriedly:
"I'm done packing, let's get going."
Lu Yu looked at the anxious woman in front of him and couldn't help but smile slightly, and responded softly:
"Don't worry, we still have to wait a little longer for someone to come."
Hearing this, Qin Wan couldn't help but widen his eyes and asked with a puzzled look on his face:
"Who are you waiting for? I don't remember that we had an appointment with anyone else."
At this moment, her heart was filled with curiosity and confusion, and she had no idea who would make them wait here.
Lu Yu explained slowly, "Of course we're waiting for a driver. I called the island, and they'll send someone to pick us up."
Also, I just went to the post office here and found out that the luggage we sent earlier has arrived. This way, we can just have the car pick up all our luggage. It will be much easier for us.”
After hearing this, Qin Wan nodded in sudden realization and exclaimed:
"Oh! So that's how it is..."
However, for some reason, she always felt as if she had not woken up yet, and her head was still dizzy. She clearly heard all the arrangements that Lu Yu mentioned, but she had a hazy feeling, as if she understood it but not quite.
Is it really because I woke up too hastily that my brain is still in a chaotic state? Thinking of this, Qin Wan couldn't help but raise his hand and rub his temples, hoping to make himself more awake.
