She has long eyelashes and looks charming and beautiful; she is a well-educated young lady from a prestigious family.
At first glance, she gives the impression of coming from a wealthy and cultured family, which is why they could raise such a daughter. This is also why those people targeted He Shaohua, as she had no ability to fight back.
The boy accompanying them also looked scholarly, the kind of person who couldn't even lift a chicken. Perhaps it was from working in the countryside, exposed to the wind and sun, that his complexion was sallow.
"Thank you, sister-in-law, thank you, brother, thank you all. If it weren't for you, I really wouldn't know how to explain to Uncle He." If something really had happened, Wu Jindong would have spent the rest of his life in regret and guilt.
Lu Chen added, "It's alright. The train police said you can just sit here the whole time. No one will dare to mess with you. Don't be afraid."
After comforting him, Lu Chen said, "We've been out for too long, let's go back quickly."
Shen Qiaoyue nodded and looked at them, saying, "We need to go back to our families first, take good care of ourselves, don't trust strangers, and don't take anything from strangers."
"Yes, thank you, sister-in-law." He Shaohua nodded and then thanked Shen Qiaoyue.
After Lu Chen left with Shen Qiaoyue, He Shaohua and Wu Jinsheng exchanged a glance and breathed a sigh of relief, both feeling relieved.
"Let me sit for a while, don't be afraid." Wu Jinsheng and He Shaohua are siblings who grew up together, and their parents were both good comrades-in-arms in the revolution.
He Shaohua felt much better after being comforted by Wu Jinsheng.
Shen Qiaoyue returned to her carriage with Lu Chen.
"Are you alright?" After closing the carriage door, Shen Qiaoyue hugged Lu Chen in fear. Lu Chen, who was originally concerned about his wife, was stunned for a moment after being hugged by Shen Qiaoyue.
Shen Qiaoyue was also very scared at the time.
"Lu Chen, I'm so scared too. I didn't realize we were so close to danger!" Shen Qiaoyue thought back to the time they came to Beijing by car a year ago. What would they have done if they had opened the door?
Lu Chen gently patted Shen Qiaoyue's shoulder to comfort her, "It's okay, don't be afraid, it's all over now, we'll be fine, you can trust me."
"Lu Chen, do you always get this close to danger?" Lu Chen is a soldier and is very perceptive about these things, but even after experiencing two lifetimes, Shen Qiaoyue is still afraid of these things. This is the first time she has seen such a scene.
Lu Chen said, "I am a soldier and have experienced life and death. This is nothing. If there weren't too many people, I would have taken care of that human trafficker long ago."
Shen Qiaoyue felt a pang of heartache when she thought about how Lu Chen had gone through all these things in his teens.
She also understood why, in her past life, despite Shen Qiaoyue's strong opposition to marrying Lu Chen, her second uncle still forced her to marry him. It was because her second uncle knew that Lu Chen was worthy of her entrusting her life to.
The more Shen Qiaoyue thought about the foolish things she had done in her past life, the more she felt sorry for Lu Chen and her family.
Her eyes instantly turned red from crying.
"Lu Chen!"
Noticing that something was wrong with Shen Qiaoyue's mood, someone inside said, "Wife, don't be afraid, it's alright."
"Yes, I'm not afraid anymore," Shen Qiaoyue said to Lu Chen, controlling her emotions.
"Honey, you're so brave! You've been so helpful!"
Lu Chen thought of Shen Qiaoyue picking up the kettle and hitting the prisoner to keep Lu Chen from getting distracted.
"Really?" Shen Qiaoyue looked up at Lu Chen and asked without greeting him.
"Of course, otherwise I might have been shot by that human trafficker." Lu Chen said seriously to Shen Qiaoyue, whose actions were very brave.
"Don't say such unlucky things. You're so capable, you would never slander me."
Shen Qiaoyue refused to believe that Lu Chen was unaware of the unusual behavior of the person behind him.
Lu Chen actually knew what to do and had already thought of a way to deal with it. However, at that time, he was thinking that if he turned around to face the person who was going to ambush him, that person would definitely quickly draw a weapon and shoot at Lu Chen. So he was thinking about who the bullet would hit if he dodged. He needed to avoid the bullet and take down the bandit in one blow.
Fortunately, Shen Qiaoyue was brave; she picked up a water bottle and smashed it over the head of the person who was about to attack her.
"But this is too dangerous, honey. Please don't do this again next time." Lu Chen arranged for his wife to be in a position where the bandits couldn't hurt her, so that he wouldn't have any worries. However, Shen Qiaoyue's sudden approach made him afraid that she would be injured by the bandits.
"I was just worried about you. I promise I won't do it again next time," Shen Qiaoyue quickly said.
While the young couple were talking, someone knocked on the door.
"Comrade Lu, this is Xiao Lin." It was Xu Tiande's bodyguard who knocked on the door.
After releasing Shen Qiaoyue, Lu Chen went to open the door.
Seeing that Lu Chen and Shen Qiaoyue were alright, Yu Qingce asked worriedly, "I just heard there was a kidnapping incident. Are you alright?"
Lu Chen was puzzled as to how they knew.
"Comrade Lu, I just went to fetch water for my husband and aunt. When I came back, I heard that a soldier was fighting three people at once, and they were armed. So I told my husband and aunt about it." Xiao Lin replied truthfully.
"Yes, are you alright? Who was the person who was kidnapped? Was it Qiaoyue?" Yu Qingce looked at Shen Qiaoyue with concern.
Lu Chen and Shen Qiaoyue exchanged a glance. Shen Qiaoyue smiled and shook her head, saying, "It wasn't me. It was a girl who went home for the New Year. Lu Chen noticed that the girl's expression was unusual, so he stopped them and asked her some questions. That's when they revealed their true colors."
Yu Qingce breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's good that they're alright. Are the two of them inside?" As an elder and the wife of a leader, it's normal for Yu Qingce to be worried.
Shen Qiaoyue responded, "The two of them only went to sleep at four or five in the morning, so they're probably still sleeping right now."
"That's good. If you need anything, remember to go in groups. If the girls have any trouble, please ask Lu Chen and Xiao Lin for help. Don't go alone." Yu Qingce reminded them, "Recently, during the Spring Festival, pickpockets have definitely become more rampant. It seems we need to pay attention to this as well!"
Lu Chen nodded slightly, and Yu Qingce gave him a few more instructions before heading back.
Xu Tiande was reading a book in the carriage when Yu Qingce came in and saw Xu Tiande's leisurely demeanor. Yu Qingce glared at Xu Tiande angrily.
Xiaolin's seat was in the next private room.
"Tell me, these things are never resolved, one after another! And they're always targeting girls. If it weren't for Lu Chen, how miserable would that girl's future be!" Yu Qingce was concerned about women and thought of the tragic fate of women before liberation.
"This matter really needs to be taken seriously. After we get back, we really need to offer some suggestions. The security on the train also needs to be strengthened. Those people are simply insane!" Xu Tiande wasn't indifferent; it was just that sometimes he himself was powerless to do anything about it.
Like many situations now, he can't change anything at all.
“I want to go out and work, but I don’t know when the organization will reply to my job request. If it’s not in Beijing, I can go to Fucheng to work. I’m so bored taking care of you at home all day!” Yu Qingce couldn’t stay idle for a moment.
