Everyone else's attention was focused on Lin Meijiao.
They also wanted to see how Lin Meijiao could have the nerve to ask Xu Qingqing to give her a seat.
Lin Meijiao's face turned pale; she shouldn't have come to see Xu Qingqing.
Seeing Lin Meijiao embarrassed by her words, Xu Qingqing sneered, "You're really shameless."
This remark completely enraged Lin Meijiao, who retorted angrily, "Xu Qingqing! Can't you speak properly?"
Xu Qingqing retorted casually, "Of course I can speak, but that depends on whether the other person is a person or not."
Everyone understood what Xu Qingqing was implying, including Lin Meijiao.
She looked at Xu Qingqing and smiled instead of getting angry: "Qingqing, you're joking again. I've been your older sister for ten years, we grew up together. It's too hurtful for your older sister to say such things to me."
After saying that, he put on a wronged expression, as if he had been hurt by Xu Qingqing.
Xu Qingqing rolled her eyes. This little bitch is truly worthy of being Bai Xiaolian's daughter; she's incredibly patient.
One of the older women couldn't hold back any longer: "Hey, Lin, we still need to go to the county town. If you have time, can't you walk there yourself? You're wasting everyone's time."
"That's right, that's right."
Everyone was in agreement and dissatisfied with Lin Meijiao's behavior. They were all tired from work, so they just treated the incidents between the educated youth as a joke.
They finally get a chance to go to the county town, and they're making a scene here; they're not happy about it.
Lin Meijiao listened to the accusations against her by these middle-aged women with her head down, her expression terribly gloomy.
The old man driving the oxcart put away his pipe, completely unconcerned about the fight. He told everyone to sit down and then slowly drove the oxcart away.
Xu Qingqing glanced at Lin Meijiao, then looked back at Bo Jingran beside her, and took his hand to examine it slowly.
Bo Jingran smiled but didn't say anything, just quietly watching Xu Qingqing play with her fingers.
The atmosphere between the two drew winks and eye contact from those around them; the young couple clearly had a wonderful relationship.
They arrived in the county town, and Xu Qingqing bared her teeth, refusing Bo Jingran's help, and jumped off the oxcart to stretch her numb legs.
Seeing that Bo Jingran seemed unaffected, she asked curiously, "Why aren't your legs numb?"
Bo Jingran: "I don't feel anything."
Xu Qingqing was envious. "Tell me, how can there be such a big difference between people?"
After stretching, she led Bo Jingran into an alley and walked through a row of houses.
Xu Qingqing glanced at him: "Aren't you curious why I brought you here?"
Bo Jingran thought about it seriously for a moment and said, "It would be a lie to say I'm not curious, but you have your reasons for coming. I won't ask any more questions. I'll know whenever you want to tell me."
To love someone is to accept everything about them. Everyone has their own little secrets, and if she doesn't tell you, he should pretend he doesn't know.
Xu Qingqing gave him an approving look and patted him on the shoulder: "Young man, you have a bright future!"
Bo Jingran's smile froze, and he almost fell to the ground from Xu Qingqing's strong hand, wondering how the other party could be so strong.
"Found it!" Xu Qingqing looked at the reddish-brown gate in front of her, the smile lines at the corners of her mouth deepening.
The human traffickers were inside, along with more than a dozen abducted children, including the son of Secretary Lin.
Lin Shuyan.
The book doesn't explain in detail why Lin Shuyan was abducted; it only states that it was a targeted abduction.
If Lin Meijiao hadn't happened to encounter this group shifting their target and disrupted their plans, thus angering them, Lin Shuyan wouldn't have been so unlucky as to be used as a target for their anger, resulting in the paralysis of both legs.
Oh dear, this is terrible!
Xu Qingqing gloated.
She told Bo Jingran to stay away, then moved her head with one hand and kicked open the door with a swift step.
Several burly men inside were drinking and playing cards. After hearing the noise, they looked at each other, picked up sticks, and cautiously walked out.
Once he saw that it was an exceptionally beautiful young girl, he relaxed and grinned mischievously again.
The leader had a lewd look in his eyes as he sized Xu Qingqing up and down. He and the others around him exchanged the same glance: this was top-quality merchandise; whether they sold it or kept it, it would be a big business.
The man leered, "Little girl, you've got some nerve. You're unlucky to have run into us today. Brothers, let's go!"
Seeing that the group was about to surround Xu Qingqing, Bo Jingran was worried and wanted to step forward to stop them, but Xu Qingqing raised her hand to stop him.
"Bo Jingran, step back. I'm the main character today. Don't let this moment of great attention affect my performance."
The leader laughed loudly: "Little girl, you have commendable courage. It's just a pity that the kid is all looks and no substance. Why don't you come with us brothers? We guarantee you'll live a life of luxury."
The little girl is so arrogant. Don't be so sure she'll be begging them to let her go later. As for that kid, he looks like a weakling. He could take him down with one punch.
Bo Jingran clenched his fists tightly. At this moment, he realized his weakness. He could only watch helplessly as that person bullied his wife, and there was nothing he could do.
Xu Qingqing paused, staring at the group with a dark expression. Very well, she was really angry.
Xu Qingqing exuded a chilling aura. She had originally wanted to have some fun with these people, but now it seemed unnecessary.
She threw off her baggage, pulled out a small iron hammer from her pocket, and grinned maliciously: "If you dare to bully my people, I won't be Xu Qingqing if I don't beat the shit out of you."
The human traffickers looked at Xu Qingqing with disdain. Her?!
Xu Qingqing snatched the wooden stick from the man in front of her and struck him on the elbow with the hammer, causing him to scream in pain.
