However, Lu Qingyan still asked, "Where are you going in the north?"
The driver laughed heartily and said, "Uncle, the place I'm going to is a two-day drive away. Do you know where it is?"
Lu Qingyan shook her head blankly, "I don't know."
"You don't know?" the driver sighed. "Little boy, did you have a fight with your family and run away from home?"
Lu Qingyan stared at him, unable to understand how he knew.
The driver earnestly advised, "You're still young and don't understand your family's good intentions. They all love you and are doing this for your own good. Don't just run off without saying goodbye all the time. You're so young now, what if someone takes you away? Those bad guys will lock you up, starve you, and beat you. Just think how terrible that would be."
The driver didn't dare to say anything too serious; he just wanted to scare the girl and make her go home obediently.
However, his words stirred up memories for Lu Qingyan. Wasn't this the kind of life she used to live? She knew she was born to Hu's parents, but they treated her like this anyway. How could she not try to escape? No matter who the other party was, she didn't want to live like this again, but she would never go back.
"Uncle, I'm scared," Lu Qingyan said.
"Ahem," the driver said with a serious expression, "Just remember that, but don't wander off like that again."
Lu Qingyan nodded. Yes, she wasn't just wandering off; she had already decided to go north.
The driver didn't think much of it, assuming that Lu Qingyan's home was in the north and that she had run away without knowing the way home.
So the plan is to take her with us, and once she leaves home, we'll send her back, or once we reach our destination, we'll hand her over to the local police so they can help us find the child's parents.
Throughout the journey, Lu Qingyan was very well-behaved, afraid of upsetting the driver and making him unwilling to take her along.
The driver also thought the girl was very well-behaved, but he was secretly annoyed. Why was his own daughter so unruly? He wished she were as well-behaved as the girl in front of him.
The car sped north, passing through many places along the way, but Lu Qingyan didn't say which one was her home.
The driver had already decided that he would take the child to the police station after delivering the goods.
Lu Qingyan had already decided that once her uncle parked the car at the northernmost point, she would definitely find a chance to slip away and not let anyone catch her.
Two days later, they arrived at a warehouse.
The person unloading the goods was an old acquaintance of the driver. Upon seeing the driver, the driver greeted him warmly: "Hey, didn't you come to deliver goods? Why did you bring your precious daughter with you?"
The driver quickly explained, "This isn't my daughter. I found her on the street, and I was just thinking of taking her back."
The man looked over, but Lu Qingyan kept her head down, so he couldn't see her face clearly.
The driver told Lu Qingyan, "I need to go over and sign something. You wait here."
Lu Qingyan nodded, already having made up her mind.
Once the driver was out of sight, Lu Qingyan looked left and right to make sure no one was watching her before quietly leaving with her bag.
The people unloading the goods were also busy unloading, so they assumed that the driver had taken Lu Qingyan away by himself and didn't think much of it.
