Zheng Xinyi lay on the bed, her eyes wide open, unable to close. She took out the note that Cheng Haoyu had written to her before leaving from her pocket and held it in her hand like a treasure.
At three o'clock in the morning, Zheng Xinyi's eyelids began to twitch. She put the note back into her pocket. Just as she closed her eyes, she heard a woman's terrified scream in the next carriage. She woke up suddenly, stood up abruptly, and looked at Li Yu.
Li Yu made a hushing gesture to himself, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense. Zheng Xinyi rubbed her hands on her chest, and beads of sweat appeared on her palms.
"Hurry up and take out all your valuables." Then I heard a threatening tone from the next carriage, followed by the sound of people rummaging through things.
An old lady begged for mercy: "I really don't have anything valuable left, please let me go!"
"This necklace is the only relic my mother left me." This was the voice of another woman.
Zheng Xinyi's anger had surpassed her fear, and her face was gloomy. "This is really too much. Robbery in public like this."
"They seem to be getting closer and closer to us." The other two people who shared the carriage with them were so scared that they were trembling and huddled together.
As soon as he finished speaking, several burly men with iron rods in their hands walked in with menacing looks, pointing the iron rods at them and saying, "If you want to live, quickly hand over your valuables to me."
Zheng Xinyi and Li Yu looked at each other and remained sitting still.
"What? Didn't you hear me?" The middle-aged man pointed at them with wide eyes while holding an iron rod.
"We are all poor, what valuable things do we have?" The person curled up in the corner said in a trembling voice.
"No money?" He walked over in two or three steps and took off the earrings on her ears. The person snorted and covered his cut ear with his hands, grinning.
"Judging from your clothes, you are a rich man!" The bandit turned his gaze to Li Yu. Li Yu subconsciously protected Xiaoxue who was still sleeping.
"You can't touch her." Zheng Xinyi said bravely.
As soon as the words fell, the bandits' gaze immediately shifted to Zheng Xinyi: "It's impossible not to touch her. Brothers, search for her. Take away anything valuable."
As soon as they finished speaking, they rushed straight to Li Yu. Zheng Xinyi, who was sitting next to him, became anxious and was about to get up to help Li Yu, but she didn't expect that their action would wake up Xiaoxue. The bandits directly snatched Xiaoxue from Li Yu's arms, and then Xiaoxue cried in fear.
"Xiaoxue." Zheng Xinyi quickly stood up and stared at them with wide eyes: "Don't hurt the child."
"You don't have to hurt her, but just give me the valuables quickly." The bandit who was holding Xiaoxue raised his voice in a threatening tone.
"If you dare to touch her, you will be dead." Li Yu stared at them calmly and said.
You guys looked at me, I looked at you, and with a sinister smile on your face, you said, "You're trying to scare us."
Li Yu took out her ID from her bag and handed it to them. The brothers were immediately dumbfounded: "Are you the wife of Shanghai Mayor Lin Zhen?"
"That's right. If you dare to touch a hair on our mother and me, my man will never let you go." Li Yu said seriously.
Zheng Xinyi, who was standing aside, was also surprised. She really didn't expect that Li Yu had such a powerful background.
"Go, go." No one wanted to get into trouble, so they quickly let the child go and ran away in shame.
