“After returning from the border, I went back to the capital. I have news about my third cousin from my uncle’s family.” Chu Xun said with a smile, “This is all thanks to Yueyue for catching the human trafficker on the train last time. Everyone says you are the lucky star of our Chu family.”
"You deserve some credit for this too." Li Xiyue smiled, then asked, "A-Xun, how was Third Cousin abducted?"
The eldest uncle and his wife are both soldiers. How could human traffickers abduct children from them?
“I heard it from my grandfather. I wasn’t even born when my third cousin went missing.” Chu Xun said slowly, “My third cousin got sick when he was a child. No hospital in Beijing could cure him. At that time, the whole family was not in Beijing. My aunt took my cousin to another province for treatment. Who knew that after getting off the train, my aunt turned around to get something, and my cousin was gone.”
I see.
Train stations are crowded and chaotic, making it impossible to guard against all dangers.
"After my third cousin went missing, my aunt was filled with remorse and cried every day. Her health deteriorated, and she passed away not long after," Chu Xun sighed.
Li Xiyue could imagine how painful it would be for a mother to lose her child, especially since the child was lost because of her. She would live with self-blame and guilt for the rest of her life.
"Our Chu family has never given up searching for our third cousin. Heaven rewards those who persevere, and we finally have news."
Li Xiyue asked, "Did you participate in the investigation of human traffickers on the train because you also wanted to take the opportunity to find out about your third cousin?"
"yes."
Over the years, he knew the chances were slim, but he was just trying his luck. He never expected to actually find a clue.
Li Xiyue asked, "Ah Xun, what illness does Third Cousin have?"
Even doctors in the capital couldn't cure him, so they had to go to another province for treatment? And after all these years, is that child, who was abducted while seriously ill, still alive?
"I don't know either, we'll have to ask Grandpa to find out," Chu Xun shook his head.
"Okay. I'll call Grandpa Chu next time and ask."
Chu Xun added, "We've also got news from Gongye Haotian. They've found out he's in the capital and has connections with the black market. I believe it won't be long before we can bring him out."
Li Xiyue was surprised, "He's in the capital? He's really bold."
"Desperados".
"Commander." Xiao Wu knocked on the door from the outside.
Chu Xun knew they had to part again, so he hugged her and said, "I have some important things to do, so I can only go back to be with you tonight."
"Okay, I'll go back then too."
Opening the door, Chu Xun said to Xiao Wu, "Take Yueyue back."
"Yes, Commander."
Chen Yu walked over, pointed to himself, and asked, "Commander, what about me?"
"Come with me!" Chu Xun glared at him.
Chen Yu felt a chill run down his spine, while Xiao Wu gloated, "Old Chen, good luck to you."
Li Xiyue laughed.
They went to the commune to get the medicine, then loaded it onto the truck and drove back to the village.
On the way, Li Xiyue asked Xiao Wu, "Are you going to the front lines with your regimental commander this time?"
"Yes," Xiao Wu replied with a smile, his eyebrows dancing with excitement. "Sister-in-law, you don't know how amazing our regimental commander is. He charged into the enemy's ambush single-handedly, easily wiped out a platoon of enemy soldiers, and rescued that greenhorn who had been caught in the ambush."
He spoke casually, but Li Xiyue felt a pang of heartache. "Your commander was injured while rescuing people?"
Xiao Wu blurted out, "Yes, shot in the abdomen, unconscious for a day and a night..." Realizing something, he quickly added, "Sister-in-law, I exaggerated. It wasn't that serious. The commander is perfectly fine now, isn't he?"
Li Xiyue knew the situation was only worse than Xiao Wu had described. Chu Xun, you big liar!
Not hearing what the person behind him was saying, Xiao Wu glanced through the rearview mirror and saw that the girl's eyes were red. He felt like slapping himself.
