Jiang Cong's journey was really tiring. He bought a sleeper ticket for his two children and sat beside them for fifteen hours without closing his eyes.
The fatigue on his face was obvious. He went to take a shower, and Qin Man coaxed the two children to sleep.
The children were also tired after traveling all the way. It was the first time for them to sit in the car for such a long time. They fell asleep one after another not long after lying on the bed. Qin Man turned on the light and closed the door. When they returned to the room, Jiang Cong could not help but hugged her waist from behind and rubbed her neck gently.
"Stop making noise, the children have just fallen asleep, don't wake them up!" Qin Man made a snoring gesture.
"No, I just missed you!" Jiang Cong spoke in a low voice. The hot breath he exhaled made her feel itchy and she couldn't help but shrink her neck.
"I know, I miss you too!" Qin Man turned around, hugged his neck and kissed his lips.
Jiang Cong pressed her and deepened the kiss. They didn't know how long they kissed. Qin Man was already breathing slightly. She couldn't help but hum softly, stretched out her hand to push him away, and forcibly ended this long and passionate kiss.
"Are you tired? Go to sleep. I'm going to take a shower!"
She has been busy until now and has not taken a shower yet. After working all day, she just wants to lie down and sleep.
"Well, go ahead!"
Jiang Cong stroked her cheek, and his eyes were so tender when he looked at her. The look in a person's eyes when he loved someone would never lie. When he looked at her, those amber eyes always made her feel flustered.
After coming back from taking a shower, Jiang Cong had already fallen asleep with his eyes closed. His breathing was heavy, and it was obvious that he was really tired.
She turned off the lights and lay down beside him. Jiang Cong was like a muscle memory engraved in his bones. Even when he fell asleep, he did not forget to reach out and hug her tightly.
They had a good sleep all night and when they woke up at dawn, the children woke up too. However, Qin Man was in a hurry to go to work, so she left the task of washing the children to Jiang Cong.
"I'm going to work first. You help them wash their faces and brush their teeth, and then make breakfast. I'll rest the day after tomorrow, and then we can go out and play as a family!"
"Okay, go ahead. Be safe on the road and remember to eat breakfast!"
Jiang Cong couldn't send her off, and he didn't have to worry about being unsafe in broad daylight. After that accident, it really left a big shadow in his heart.
"I see!"
Qin Man went out with her bag on her back. She quickly ate two buns and a cup of soy milk on the way, then squeezed onto the bus to go to work. It was only three stops away, but she actually encountered a pickpocket.
She accidentally saw a man standing close to a girl and using a knife to cut her cloth bag.
The cloth bag was very fragile and a slight scratch would create a tear. The bus was crowded and the girl did not react to any movement. Qin Man watched the man put his hand into her cloth bag.
But he had a knife in his hand, so she didn't want to make a fuss, for fear that he might threaten someone's life with the knife.
An idea suddenly occurred to her, and she tried her best to squeeze towards the front of the train. The last stop was where she would get off, and she had to find a way to catch the pickpocket.
Fortunately, there wasn't much space on buses these days, so she quickly squeezed to the front, the driver's seat.
Qin Man reported to the driver quietly:
"Uncle, there's a pickpocket on the bus. He's the man in dark green clothes, with long hair, about 20 years old!"
There was a rearview mirror on the bus. After listening to Qin Man's description, the driver quickly found the pickpocket's shadow.
The bus stopped at the station and it was time for Qin Man to get off. The bus only had a door in the middle, and all passengers had to get off from there. However, the driver did not open the door after arriving at the station, but got up and walked to the back.
"Make way!" the driver called out, and everyone took the initiative to make way for them.
The pickpocket quickly put away his knife and moved to the side of the car door so that he could get out of the car and run away, but he didn't seem to realize that he was targeted.
The driver looked calm and composed, but the passengers who were about to get off the bus were urging him to hurry up.
"Why don't you open the door? We want to go down!"
The driver ignored him, grabbed the thief's hand and twisted it behind his back, then kicked him on the ankle. The thief felt the pain and had no power to resist. He just heard the driver controlling him easily and said to everyone:
"Everyone check to see if you have lost anything. This guy is a pickpocket!"
Everyone rushed to check and found that only the girl whose bag was torn had lost money.
"My money is missing. It's for my mom's hospital stay!"
Finally, her money was found from the pickpocket, and there was loud cheering in the car.
Qin Man was in a hurry to get off the car and hurriedly urged:
"Uncle, please open the door. I'm going to be late for work!"
The girl was still thanking the driver. The driver looked at Qin Man and said with a smile:
"Girl, you should thank her. She saw it and came to tell me!"
The girl lost more than a hundred yuan in an instant, and now she got it back, she was so excited that she cried. Upon hearing this, she held Qin Man's hand and expressed her gratitude for a while.
"Thank you, I am so grateful to you. Otherwise, my mother wouldn't be able to pay for the medical bills!"
"No need to thank me, it's just a piece of cake!" Qin Man was really in a hurry to go to work and didn't want to waste time talking to her.
