Chapter 18. Is there anything else you'd like to say?



Xu Xinghe's eyes immediately welled up with tears.

It wasn't because I was afraid.

But this guy's mouth... really stinks!

She hadn't brushed her teeth in ages, and the smell was making her eyes hurt!

Seeing that Xu Xinghe hadn't returned for so long, Lian Xiao thought he would go and meet her.

Unexpectedly, I saw her being bullied to the point of tears.

He immediately took long strides, leaping over the luggage on the ground, and in a few steps came up behind the thief. With a grappling move, he slammed the man heavily against the side of the table and chair!

Xu Xinghe's eyes lit up. Helper had arrived. "Brother Lian Xiao, he's a thief. I saw him with my own eyes."

“Hmm.” Lian Xiao believed her. “Could someone please call the train police? I’m going to join the army, and my sister is also going to accompany me. We can’t be lying. An investigation will prove everything.”

Since the other party was a thief, it's impossible that he only stole from one person after the car had been driving for so long.

Once the stolen goods are obtained, it can be used as proof.

The train police arrived quickly.

The thief panicked. He thought Xu Xinghe was just a little girl who would be scared by him, but he didn't expect her to have such a powerful brother!

But now he can only insist that he is not a thief, otherwise he will be in trouble. "I didn't steal anything, they are slandering me! Just because he wants to join the army, does that give him the right to slander us ordinary people?"

The railway police officer approached Xu Xinghe and negotiated with him.

“I saw him steal from that old man. He leaned against the side and pretended to be asleep, but he actually reached his hand inside. However, I caught him before he could steal it.”

Lian Xiao took over, his voice cold and calm. Coming from a military family, he was well-versed in the ways of the world and knew a lot. "He's so experienced; he must be a repeat offender. The train has been traveling all night, so he'll definitely take advantage of the passengers being asleep at night and before they wake up in the morning to make his move. So as long as we find his luggage, we should be able to find the stolen goods."

Before the thief could say anything more, Lian Xiao grabbed a flight attendant's rag and stuffed it into his mouth. "You can say whatever you want later. If you're not a thief, I'll compensate you. Until then, shut up."

He was afraid that if the other person continued to yell, the little girl in front of him would really cry.

The train police quickly located the thief's seat and found several wallets in his luggage.

Both witnesses and physical evidence are available.

The train police officer removed the rag from his mouth. "Is there anything else you want to say?"

The thief, not wanting to go to jail, stared intently at Xu Xinghe and shouted at the top of his lungs, "I know! You're all in cahoots! These wallets must have been put there by someone you hired! This brat has such delicate skin and is dressed so well; she's obviously a pampered daughter of a capitalist. You took money and colluded with her to bully us ordinary folks! I don't want to live anymore! Rich people are bullying us poor farmers!"

He started acting like a scoundrel, shifting all the blame onto Xu Xinghe.

These days, being a poor peasant is the only truly legitimate and upright status, while the word "capitalist" is considered the original sin!

Now the train is full of onlookers, and when they hear this, they look at Xu Xinghe differently.

Lian Xiao wanted to speak, but Xu Xinghe pressed her hand down, and then she took out a certificate from her bag.

“He’s right. I used to be associated with the word ‘capitalist,’ but I am not now.”

She spoke each word clearly and loudly, “I have donated all the money in my family to the country, contributing my share. Having money is not a sin. This money was earned by my elders through hard work, without oppressing anyone. The country is developing now, and many places need money. Railways need to be built, soldiers need to be trained, and weapons need to be developed. My family's money can buy cannons for the country!”

Xu Xinghe stared at the thief, raising the certificate high with one hand. "You only know how to slander and spew vulgarities. You are a parasite on the country. Even though I am just a woman, I must stand up bravely for someone like you!"

The railway police officer looked at the contents of the certificate and was instantly stunned.

He has a good eye and can tell that the stamps on it are genuine.

"On September 15, 1967, Ms. Xu Xinghe donated one million yuan to the nation!"

The carriage fell silent for a moment, followed by a chorus of gasps.

Some of them earn less than 100 yuan a year, yet they donated 1 million yuan!

It's a number I wouldn't even dare to imagine.

The train police officer couldn't help but bow to Xu Xinghe, saying, "Thank you, Ms. Xu, for your contributions to the country."

Lian Xiao stared at her in astonishment.

She actually donated so much money?

How will she live in the future?

Although the Xu family is the richest family, donating so much money will definitely be a huge financial blow.

Xu Xinghe put away the certificate and smiled sweetly, "It's only right, I'm also a part of the country."

She looked at the thief, her expression stern, yet devoid of any imposing manner. "What else do you have to say? You accused me of being a thief first, but let me ask you, I've already donated a million, so why would I steal money?"

"You call me a capitalist's daughter again, but I've donated all my money and I'm broke. I'm not a capitalist anymore. What other reason can you think of to slander me?"

The thief's face turned red with frustration, unable to think of another excuse.

The train police officer immediately restrained the person, saying, "Ms. Xu, rest assured, we will never allow a hero like you to be insulted!"

The thief was taken away.

The matter is now considered closed.

Xu Xinghe was pulled back to the sleeper car by Lian Xiao's wrist.

The two sat facing each other.

Lian Xiao stared at her beautiful and delicate features and couldn't help but ask, "You really donated so much money? What will you do in the future?"

Xu Xinghe smiled and said, "I can earn my own money in the future."

Lian Xiao clicked his tongue and looked at the slender wrist he had just grasped.

The skin on it was already red, and you could vaguely see fingerprints.

That's too pampered.

He looked away. "Eat first. Don't be so reckless in the future. If you encounter any problems, you can tell me first."

He couldn't help but scratch his head again. "Fine, I'll go wherever you go from now on. Otherwise... if you lose even a single hair, my grandpa won't forgive me."

Such a delicate person deserves to be well protected.
