Chapter 119 Who hired the servants and merchants?



Sheng Zexi hugged her a little too tightly, making Gu Jianing breathless for a moment. She subconsciously pushed him away and turned her head to see the man's red eyes. She was stunned and her heart softened at that moment.

"Brother Xi, I'm sorry. I made you worry." Gu Jianing apologized softly. Before she went out, she had promised that nothing would happen, but something happened anyway.

"But, Xi Ge, don't worry, I'm fine, really, you can check, I'm fine."

"And I also knocked that trafficker down. He is now in the police station."

Seeing that Sheng Zexi remained silent, Gu Jianing became anxious.

He continued to slow down his voice, "I'm sorry, Brother Xi, I made you worry." Gu Jianing reached out and gently hugged Sheng Zexi to comfort him.

The soft and warm body in his arms and the gentle and tender words finally brought Sheng Zexi back to his senses and his originally cold hands finally warmed up a little.

The heart that had been beating wildly when Gu Jianing encountered the human traffickers finally calmed down.

He rested his chin on Gu Jianing's head and explained, "I don't blame you. I'm just worried about you, Ningning. You're still pregnant."

No one knows how he felt when he heard the soldier report during training that Gu Jianing had encountered a human trafficker in the county town.

Although the soldier also said that Gu Jianing was very powerful and knocked down the human trafficker.

But only Sheng Zexi knew that his young wife was delicate, weak and now pregnant. How could she knock down the trafficker?

Even if she really took down the human trafficker, would she also be injured?

Thinking of this, Sheng Zexi couldn't bear it.

If he thought about it further, he was afraid he would go crazy.

So, we drove out of the military area and arrived at the county town without stopping.

It was not until this moment, when he held his young wife in his arms, that his heart felt a little more at ease.

"I know you are worried about me, Xi Ge. I am really fine. I even knocked down that trafficker..."

Listening to the young wife excitedly talking about how she brought down the trafficker, Sheng Zexi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. In the end, he could only hold her hand tightly and lead her into the police station.

When Sheng Zexi saw the human trafficker who had not woken up yet, his eyes were full of coldness. He told Zhang Weidong to investigate the case carefully and tell him any news at the military district as soon as possible.

"Don't worry, bro. I will."

Finally, Sheng Zexi helped Gu Jianing and Zhang Shuwan load their shopping items into the car before driving them back to the military region.

As soon as she returned to the military area, Zhang Shuwan also saw Lin Xing who was waiting anxiously.

It was only then that Lin Xing found out that his wife and Comrade Gu had actually encountered human traffickers when they went out. He was immediately very anxious because both women were pregnant.

Now, seeing that his daughter-in-law was safe and sound, Lin Xing finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Here, Sheng Zexi was carrying something, slowing down his pace, and walking beside Gu Jianing.

When they got home, Sheng Zexi put down his things. Gu Jianing was about to tidy up her things when she was hugged by Sheng Zexi. Sheng Zexi sat on the kang in the living room and held her horizontally in his arms.

The man's head was resting in her arms, full of dependence.

"Should we pack up our things?" Gu Jianing asked.

"Don't worry." The man's muffled voice came from his arms.

"Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?" Gu Jianing asked again.

"Not hungry, are you?"

"I ate dumplings at the state-owned hotel."

"Um."

Sheng Zexi said nothing more and continued to hold her in his arms, quietly and motionlessly.

Gu Jianing: Well, the frightened man turned into a big dog who felt wronged but attached.

Gu Jianing stroked his head again and again, and it looked like he was stroking the fur of a big dog.

Not to mention, the man seemed to enjoy it quite a bit.

Gu Jianing couldn't help but want to tease him, and said a little exaggeratedly: "Hey, we are tall and mighty in the barracks, we are the captain of the army, and as soon as we go home, we hug our wives tightly, not afraid of being seen and laughed at."

The man in her arms snorted softly, "What's wrong with me hugging my wife? Many of them don't even have wives yet."

With just one sentence, Sheng Zexi expressed his sense of honor that he has a wife.

Gu Jianing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and stopped teasing him.

Just hold him like this, lean on him, and quietly enjoy the time that belongs to the two of us.

Perhaps it was because the man's embrace was too warm, too familiar and safe, and before she knew it, her eyelids became heavier and heavier, and Gu Jianing fell asleep all of a sudden.

When he woke up again, Gu Jianing found that it was already dark.

For the next two days, Sheng Zexi kept following up on the human traffickers.

It was not until the third day when Sheng Zexi came back that he told Gu Jianing about the trafficker.

"The trafficker has already admitted it, and Qin De has also pointed out that he was the one who originally planned to cooperate with Qin De to kidnap Qin Tian."

"Fortunately, he hasn't kidnapped anyone else, and he doesn't have any other accomplices at the moment."

"Then why did he target me?" Gu Jianing asked.

Gu Jianing was not surprised by what Sheng Zexi said earlier. She had seen it in the flashing future scenes, so she reminded the police.

"He started out by saying it was because you're beautiful."

"There must be more than one reason." Gu Jianing denied it immediately.

"Yes, there are indeed more reasons than this. Later, during another interrogation by the police, he finally confessed that someone had hired him to target you. He had been waiting back and forth between the county town and Kaoshan Village for a long time. Finally, today he received news that you had arrived in the county town, and he took action."

"Received the news? Who was it?" Gu Jianing's heart skipped a beat.

Sheng Zexi's face was calm and he shook his head. "Even the merchant didn't know who this person was. Whether he hired him or passed the message to him, that person never showed up. He didn't even know if this person was a man or a woman. He only knew that he received the message unilaterally somewhere. As for how he knew you, it was because the person who hired him gave him a picture of you."

Sheng Zexi had seen that portrait before, and it looked very much like Gu Jianing. Of course, that was also because Gu Jianing was beautiful, so he could recognize her at once by comparing her image with the portrait.

"What did the person who hired him say?" Gu Jianing asked.

"Tell me, I'll kidnap you first, and then..." Sheng Zexi stared at Gu Jianing's face.

In the face of Gu Jianing's doubts, Sheng Zexi said in a deep voice: "I will destroy your face with a knife again."

"What!" Gu Jianing screamed and covered her pretty face with her hands. "This person is so abominable. She must be a woman. She is particularly jealous of my beauty!"

In fact, Gu Jianing had some vague guesses at this time.

Woman, has such strong hostility towards her.

There is only one person left.

Li Shuyao!

Gu Jianing was 80 to 90 percent sure that it was Li Shuyao.
