Chapter Twenty-Four: A Word of Wisdom! Zhang Successfully Assists in Scoring a Big Point!
Rong Nanxi is being targeted!
She had barely left the state-run restaurant when she noticed someone following her.
After a moment's thought, Rong Nanxi realized that it was probably because she was carrying so many bags and packages that she looked like a wealthy person, which was why she had attracted attention.
It was also her oversight.
Having suddenly been reborn from the safe 21st century, she had forgotten that this was the 1970s, a time when there were no surveillance cameras and thugs everywhere.
She was pregnant and couldn't do strenuous exercise, so she definitely couldn't outrun this group of people.
Moreover, the state-run restaurant was in a remote location. Although she had tried her best to take the main roads, the midday sun was blazing, and there were hardly any people on the road. Even asking for help was a luxury.
It was precisely because there were only a few people around that she could faintly hear slightly hurried footsteps behind her, and thus realized that she was being watched.
However, someone who could be discovered by oneself must not be a particularly powerful person.
Thinking this way, Rong Nanxi felt a little more at ease and began to think of a way to escape.
Rong Nanxi thought that if she were one of those thugs behind her, now would be the best time to strike!
When Rong Nanxi was repeatedly suppressed by the Lu and Chen families in her previous life, they had used such methods of tracking and intimidation before. Therefore, although Rong Nanxi was nervous, she did not panic completely.
Sure enough, at that moment, the footsteps behind them became even more hurried.
A large hand grabbed Rong Nanxi's arm. Rong Nanxi was about to kick the person in a vital spot when she looked up and saw the person. She was full of surprise.
"Uncle?" Rong Nanxi quickly withdrew her foot, which had been itching to move.
Sunlight shone on the newcomer's face, revealing a hint of youth in his handsome features as he looked at her with a smile.
Who else could it be but Fu Qingchen?
Rong Nanxi breathed a sigh of relief, glanced around and saw that Fu Qingchen was the only one there. She made a guess in her mind and stepped forward to step on Fu Qingchen's instep.
"Ouch! What are you doing?" Fu Qingchen cried out in pain, almost jumping up on the spot.
"You're trying to scare me! Fu Qingchen, if I had known you were this unruly, I should have had your brother teach you a lesson when he was here!"
Fu Qingchen pursed her lips, didn't reply, glanced at the bags in Rong Nanxi's hands, and snorted coldly.
"No wonder Mom rushed me to the county to find you after seeing the letter that my brother was leaving home. You're so blatantly showing off all this stuff. Are you afraid people won't know you're rich?"
Upon hearing this, Rong Nanxi felt another surge of emotion.
Fu's mother was really good to her.
“Tell me, how much did my brother spend on these things?” Fu Qingchen raised an eyebrow.
Rong Nanxi was already furious that Fu Qingchen had scared her, and seeing that he had wronged her, she became even angrier and threw something at Fu Qingchen.
"I earned all of this through my own efforts! Also, these clothes were bought for your brother, not for me!"
Rong Nanxi originally wanted to buy one for each member of the Fu family, but she simply couldn't carry any more, so she decided to give it to Fu Qingye first, since he was about to leave.
The rest of the Fu family have plenty of time.
Fu Qingchen ignored the clothes that had fallen to the ground and instead looked at Rong Nanxi.
"Yes! Her ability to seduce my brother!"
Rong Nanxi stared at Fu Qingchen without saying a word.
Fu Qingchen was a little flustered by that look, but he forced himself to suppress it. He wasn't lying; these days, Rong Nanxi's food and clothes were all paid for with his brother's money.
The next second, Rong Nanxi spoke.
You can criticize me, but only if I'm truly wrong!
"Without evidence, without seeing or hearing it firsthand, you're just making wild guesses based on past impressions of me, not realizing that people can change!"
"I always thought my uncle was clever, but it turns out he's incredibly foolish. I was blind before!"
After Rong Nanxi finished speaking, she turned and left.
Fu Qingchen was left staring blankly at the clothes on the ground, lost in thought.
The corner not far away.
Two men were whispering behind a wall. One was skinny and thin, while the other was burly and rugged.
"That young lady is pretty! She probably has a lot of money. If we can get her, the boss's life will be much more comfortable!"
Upon hearing this, the burly man slammed his fist against the wall. "It's all because of those cops, chasing us so relentlessly every day. It's just a few people killed, is it really that big of a deal?"
"Keep your voice down, let's follow them and find an opportunity to tie them up and take them back to let the boss vent his anger!"
The two exchanged a smile and then launched into another round of vulgar language.
...
Fu Qingye was still deep in thought.
Strange! Logically speaking, a doctor who can catch the eye of the Lu and Chen families must be an elite from the provincial capital. Why would he suddenly come to Xinchuan County?
Going home to visit relatives?
There was no need to bring a medical vehicle! And there were two men in the back.
He checked the license plates; they were all from the same place, so they were definitely traveling together!
Fu Qingye still couldn't figure it out even after entering the station.
Zhang Chenggong had no idea what Fu Qingye was thinking. Seeing that Fu Qingye had finally arrived, he quickly grabbed him and started running towards the car.
"Only five minutes left! The bus is about to leave! If we miss it, we won't be able to get back on time, and we'll be punished!"
Fu Qingye stopped thinking about it and hurriedly got into the car.
As Xinchuan County gradually disappeared from view, Fu Qingye felt an indescribable panic.
Zhang Chenggong noticed, "Brother Ye, are you reluctant to part with your wife? Have you two explained it to each other?"
Fu Qingye pursed his lips, the image of that exquisite yet arrogant face appearing in his mind. "I didn't catch up with her."
Zhang Chenggong was taken aback at first, then burst into laughter: "Hey Ye Ge, you've finally met your match!"
The next second, Fu Qingye gave him a look, and Zhang Chenggong immediately fell silent.
After a moment of silence, Zhang Chenggong, who was always restless and talkative, couldn't hold back any longer.
"Brother Ye, I think your wife really wants to live a good life with you this time. When she comes back next time, just say a few nice words to her, and she'll naturally calm down!"
"But the marriage application hasn't been approved yet. What's the reason? It's been stuck like this for so long. It's not good for my sister-in-law to not have a proper status! She's pregnant!"
"If I had known the military region wanted us to go back early, I should have held the wedding banquet first! Otherwise, I'm afraid a lot of people would be gossiping behind our backs, and my sister-in-law would definitely be heartbroken if she heard it!"
At that time, in rural areas, many people were limited by their thinking and were completely unaware that marriage certificates were protected by law. Many would simply hold a wedding banquet and not even know to get a marriage certificate.
So, in the eyes of the people in Bafang Village, the fact that the two of them hadn't held their wedding banquet yet was bound to cause a lot of gossip!
Fu Qingye frowned, still wondering why the doctor and the medical vehicle had suddenly appeared in Xinchuan County, and whether it was related to Shen Yuanzhi and Lu Zirou.
Was the doctor there to take care of Lu Zirou? But when he and Zhang Chenggong secretly followed Rong Nanxi to protect her this morning, they didn't see that the woman was unwell.
On the contrary, they look much healthier than normal people.
Fu Qingye felt as if he had overlooked something.
Hearing Zhang Chenggong's words, he was slightly taken aback.
Zhang Chenggong's mouth couldn't stay shut, and he continued to ramble on: "And that Shen Yuanzhi, my sister-in-law was so devoted to him, yet he tricked her into coming to the provincial capital to have an abortion so he could donate a kidney to his sweetheart. He's a real bastard!"
Fu Qingye suddenly looked up, his eyes sharp as he stared at Zhang Chenggong: "What did you just say?"
Zhang Chenggong looked at Fu Qingye, who suddenly exuded a murderous aura, and was first puzzled, then shocked.
"Brother Ye, you can't make a mistake! We're soldiers, we can't kill people! Especially not the villagers who watched us grow up!"
Fu Qingye said coldly, "I'm talking about Shen Yuanzhi!"
Oh, that's alright then.
Zhang Chenggong repeated it again.
Fu Qingye said in a deep voice: "Something bad is going to happen!"
Zhang Chenggong was completely dumbfounded. Before he could react, Fu Qingye shouted, "Stop the car! I want to get out!"
