Chapter 162 Backbone



Upon hearing the name "Yun Wanqing," Lu Dongjue remained silent.

Because the first person he thought of after Yun Suiwan's accident was Yun Wanqing!

"She told me to pick up my mother from the hospital and to buy the osmanthus cake that my mother wanted to eat. When I woke up, I had been sold here."

Yun Suiwan tried hard to recall, but by the time she finished thinking about it, she was covered in sweat.

"My head hurts so much."

"Alright, stop thinking about it. Things are pretty clear now." Lu Dongjue hugged her tightly, his voice tinged with heartache.

Thinking about what happened to Yun Suiwan, he felt a little scared.

If he's not careful, he might never see her again.

"Lu Dongjue, this village is terrifying, not as peaceful as you see it. Human trafficking is rampant here; many women have been abducted!"

Yun Suiwan gripped Lu Dongjue's hand tightly.

Lu Dongjue patted her gently, signaling her to relax.

"Let's take care of things here before we leave."

"You're so kind."

With Lu Dongjue's arrival, Yun Suiwan finally had a pillar of support.

"Lu Dongjue, what should we do with Zhibai and the others?" Yun Suiwan asked again.

Upon hearing this, Lu Dongjue immediately pulled her into his arms.

"Hello……"

Lu Dongjue ignored her; at a time like this, he still had the mind to think about other men.

Yun Suiwan was pinned down by him and couldn't move. She knew this man was very petty.

So she gave up and obediently nestled in his arms.

She snuggled into his arms like a puppy, finding a comfortable spot.

With him around, she could finally get a good night's sleep.

"Lu Dongjue, I'm going to sleep."

"Okay, go to sleep."

Before long, Yun Suiwan fell into a deep sleep, but Lu Dongjue was wide awake.

Firstly, the fact that he lost and then found Yun at the end of the year made him cherish it even more.

Another issue is Yun Wanqing. He thought that her relationship with Yun Suiwan was just a minor squabble between girls, but he never expected that she would actually try to kill Yun Suiwan.

This woman was far more ruthless than he had imagined.

She couldn't have done something this big by herself; he must find out all the people behind her!

**

The village chief was woken up by pain early the next morning.

He covered his forehead, closed his eyes, and howled, "That bastard Sanzi! If I catch him, I'll break his legs!"

The village chief's wife was woken up by the noise. She went over to check on her and asked, "What's wrong? Is it hurting again?"

The village chief shoved his wife impatiently, "You stinking woman, you got a cut the size of a bowl, of course it hurts!"

Seeing this, the village chief's wife knew that asking more questions would only result in being scolded, so she simply stopped asking and got off the kang (a heated brick bed) to make breakfast.

After she went outside, she heard her scream.

"ah!"

The village chief looked annoyed and yelled, "What the hell are you yelling about so early in the morning?"

Just then, Lu Dongjue lifted the curtain.

The village chief stared at Lu Dongjue with wide eyes the moment he saw him.

He stared blankly at Lu Dongjue, perhaps too frightened to utter a word for a moment.

"Come out!" Lu Dongjue said coldly.

After saying that, he left.

The village chief then rubbed his eyes vigorously. Was he awake? Was he dreaming?

After the village chief hurriedly finished tidying up, he came out and saw dozens of men standing in the yard.

They were all dressed like movie stars.

The village chief's legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground.

Yun Suiwan walked over at this moment, bent down, and looked at the village chief with a smile.

The village chief trembled as he looked at her.

"Village chief, this is my boyfriend, he's here to pick me up."

The village chief looked at the tall, handsome, and extraordinary man not far away and swallowed hard. What kind of person had he offended?

Yun Suiwan pulled out a piece of paper, which contained information he had written about human trafficking in his village.

Over the course of ten years, he abducted 28 women.

The village chief stared blankly at Yun Suiwan.

Yun Suiwan said almost cruelly, "Your future is guaranteed. You'll have food, drink, and a little silver bracelet."

"No! No, I'm not a heroine. Listen to me, I'm doing a good deed. The men in the village can't find wives, so I have to find a way, right? Besides, this has always been the case in the village. We've already spent money."

Yun Suiwan gave a cold laugh, "Save those words for the judge."

After she finished speaking, she stood up straight.

"Judge? What judge? We have no one in charge here."

Just then, Shen Xinghui and a group of people in police uniforms walked into the courtyard.

Shen Xinghui said to one of them, "That person is the mastermind; he handled many of the human trafficking cases."

"Cuff him!"

"yes."

Then, the village chief was arrested. His legs trembled, and his trouser legs got wet again.

Lu Dongjue came to Yun Suiwan's side and said, "Let's go, leave the rest to Xinghui."

Just then, Yun Suiwan let out a soft cry, her brows furrowed, and she placed one hand on her chest.

"ah……"

"What's wrong?" Lu Dongjue asked, putting his arm around her waist. "Yun Suiwan!"

Yun Suiwan frowned deeply, "Let me catch my breath, suddenly... suddenly my chest hurts..."

It wasn't just pain, it was excruciating pain.

Moreover, a sense of familiarity that made her uncomfortable welled up inside her.

Just like that time at the Xinghai Hotel—the feeling after Gu Fanchu drugged her…

But she didn't tell Lu Dongjue that perhaps it was just her imagination.

She now has only one thought: to deal with things here as soon as possible and return to G City.

Seeing her slightly pale face, Lu Dongjue asked again, "How are you?"

She shook her head. "It's okay, let's go."

Lu Dongjue gave her a deep look, then said to Shen Xinghui, "I'll leave things here to you."

"Um."

Yun Suiwan's first stop was Sanzi's house, and the first person she wanted to rescue was Sanzi's mother.

However, when she arrived, she saw the old woman lying on the kang (a heated brick bed), her face sallow.

"Auntie, what's wrong?"

Yun Suiwan hurriedly stepped forward and grasped the old woman's hand.

Her face had several bruises, as if she had been beaten.

At this moment, Yun Suiwan discovered many more scars on the old woman's arm, new and old wounds overlapping each other, like terrifying centipedes.

Yun Suiwan stared at her, speechless.

However, the old woman said softly, "It's nothing, I'm used to it."

"I've gotten used to it"—this statement, upon closer examination, is chilling.

Yun Suiwan struggled to suppress her anger and said softly, "Auntie, my family is here, and the police are here too. I'm here to rescue you. You can go home now."

"Home?" The old woman turned over, her cloudy eyes staring at the dilapidated roof. Then a smile appeared on her wrinkled lips. "I have no home. My parents don't want me anymore. Otherwise, given my family's circumstances, they would have been able to find me. I'm not going anywhere. I'm right here."

Then she paused, "Arrest Sanzi. A child with demonic genes will be a cancer on society no matter how old he gets."

The old woman is about fifty years old this year, but she has been bullied for a long time, and the heavy work and exposure to the wind and sun have made her look much older.

For the past thirty years since she was abducted, she has been treated like livestock.

When the father of the third child was still alive, he would beat and scold her constantly.

They were tied up and beaten with sticks; even worse, they were branded with red-hot irons and slashed with knives.

Over the years, influenced by his father, the third son has also frequently beaten and scolded his mother, the old woman.

"I'm not leaving. My parents don't want me anymore. I have no home. This is all I have left," the old woman repeated in a hoarse voice.

She had long lost faith in herself; she was merely living like a walking corpse.

Being able to save Yun Suiwan and her two children is the greatest blessing of her life.
