Meng Hechuan made arrangements quickly and took advantage of the fact that the next day was a weekend to find an excuse for Bai Yan to go out.
He originally wanted to accompany her in person, but was delayed by work just before leaving, and finally had no choice but to agree to let Bai Yan go alone.
As Meng Hechuan's bodyguard, Xiao Zhou was naturally inconvenient to accompany him.
Meng Hechuan asked Bai Yan to wait for a while, and then borrowed a few burly bodyguards from some friend. They were all strong and muscular, wearing black suits, and looked like Jet Li.
When Bai Yan saw the man, she was still secretly complaining that Chief Engineer Meng was really a playboy.
The Bai family wouldn't have to mobilize such a large force to deal with it, right?
Hearing her say this, Meng Hechuan didn't explain anything, but just asked Bai Yan to go and come back quickly.
Bai Yan found Jingzhou Station according to the address he gave.
Only when she stood in the underground passage did she truly understand Meng Hechuan's good intentions.
...
...
The entire underground passage was filled with a strange stench, like a mixture of sweat and urine.
Even though Bai Yan had lived in the Bai family's cowshed for a month, she couldn't accept such a smell.
She covered her nose and looked into the gloomy passage. There was no light inside, and she could only vaguely see the scene inside with the sunlight shining in from the cave entrance.
There were crowds of people, and people were standing in every corner.
There are men and women, old and young.
The only similarity is that these people are all in tattered clothes and look depressed.
"Miss Bai, there are several underground passages in Jingzhou where homeless people gather. There are all kinds of people here, and no one knows what they have done. Please be careful."
With bodyguards protecting her from both sides, Bai Yan was relatively safer.
She patrolled the underground passage, looking for the Bai family.
Walking to a dark and damp corner, she frowned slightly and walked forward quickly, "...Mom?"
The woman curled up on the ground did not respond.
Bai Yan squatted down and started to push aside her messy hair, revealing a face that looked older than her age.
There was not a single good spot on the woman's face, it was all bruises and bloodstains.
Bai Yan frowned even more tightly. She reached out to touch Lv Liping's head and found it was indeed terribly hot.
Lv Liping was lying on the ground alone, without any luggage around her, and she didn't see Bai Wei and Bai Guohua either.
Bai Yan felt strange and wondered why Bai Wei and the others were not around, but she couldn't leave Lv Liping, who had a fever, in this underground passage where even the air couldn't pass.
She thought about it and had to ask the bodyguard to help lift Lv Liping and leave first.
Meng Hechuan stuffed a handful of money into her pocket before she left. Bai Yan took her to a guesthouse near the station, checked into a room, and asked someone to buy some medicine and water. He then stood by with a towel to wipe her face.
I don’t know if it was because of the illness or because of what happened during this period, but this poor woman, Lv Liping, couldn’t sleep well at all.
After taking the medicine, he kept moaning in a daze.
“Don’t… don’t hit us… don’t hit my child…” She suddenly opened her eyes and hugged her head in fear.
"Mom, it's me, Bai Yan."
Bai Yan stepped forward and held her down, "Don't be afraid."
"Xiao Yan, is that you? It's really you!"
She held Bai Yan's hand tightly like a drowning person grabbing a floating duckweed, "Don't blame mother, don't blame me..."
Her mouth opened and closed, and no one knew what she was saying. Bai Yan did not urge her, but just let her hold her hand quietly.
There was a leader among the bodyguards named A Yao. Upon seeing this situation, he asked the others to retreat to the door and leave space for them.
Lv Liping was tired of crying, she sniffed and calmed down.
Looking at Bai Yan, he recalled the scene in front of the brigade that he had with the Bai family father and son some time ago. He felt ashamed, angry and scared.
"Xiao Yan, mother is not...I..."
Bai Yan stopped her from speaking, "Mom, I know everything."
She really knew it all.
If Lv Liping had not knocked Bai Wei unconscious that night, Bai Yan might have been violated by him.
When she opened the door and was about to run away in the middle of the night, Lv Liping also heard the noise and came out to take a look.
The mother and daughter looked at each other, and Bai Guohua muttered from inside the room: "Bitch, what's that noise outside? Is that bitch going to run away?"
Bai Yan nervously picked up the broom at the door for defense.
Just when Bai Yan was at a loss, Lv Liping quickly turned around and closed the door.
She grabbed the door handle tightly and whispered, "Xiao Yan, run."
Bai Guohua pounded on the door desperately. Lv Liping didn't know where she got the strength from, but she held on to the door and refused to let go.
This gave Bai Yan a chance to escape.
"Did they beat you after I left?"
After Lv Liping calmed down, Bai Yan pulled open her sleeves, revealing the shocking scar on her arm.
Lv Liping quickly put down her sleeves and said, "Some of the injuries here were not caused by them."
She seemed very nervous. "Xiao Yan, did you come to Jingzhou because you met a noble person? Then can you ask them to save your brother and your father?"
"Save them? Mom, what happened after you left the team?"
Lv Liping began to tremble when she thought of what happened in the past few days. She lifted the quilt and was about to kneel down to Bai Yan, "Xiao Yan, I beg you, even if A Wei and your father are still in trouble, they are still your blood relatives. For my sake, can you ask your noble friend to save them?"
Bai Yan is grateful to Lv Liping, but it is not as grateful as the love she has for Bai Yan.
Seeing that she was about to kneel down in front of him, he was so scared that he took a few steps back and bumped into the low table and chair beside him.
With a clanging sound.
A Yao, who was standing at the door, was always paying attention to the movements inside. When he heard the noise, he walked back quickly and asked, "Miss Bai, are you okay?"
Bai Yan used A Yao as a shield and stood in front of her, "You get up first, we can talk about it."
A Yao looked at the others, and they lifted Lv Liping up again.
Lv Liping was an uneducated rural woman who was timid and frightened, so she couldn't get to the point even after talking for a long time.
Bai Yan was confused by what she heard.
A Yao's eyes flickered.
Bai Yan saw this and was moved, "Ayao, do you know something?"
This group of black-clad bodyguards was hired by Meng Hechuan, and it was also his instruction why the Bai family was taken to the police station.
A Yao thought about it. Neither the boss nor Chief Engineer Meng had told Miss Bai Yan to hide the truth, so he said decisively, "Yes, the Bai family was beaten up by Li Mazi after they came out of the police station. All the valuables on them must have been taken away by Li Mazi. They had no money to buy tickets and could not return to Jinling. It seems that they have been trying to get money."
"Xiao Yan, your brother and father have disappeared for three days. I hope they were beaten to death..."
