My little country wife whom I haven't seen for eight years has come to join the army
Chapter 175 Heading south to Nancheng
"That was her own choice. She clearly didn't love him, but because of her twisted mentality, she insisted on marrying Director Ma. I can only say that she deserves it!"
Zhou Ruoyu commented indifferently that the name Su Hongmei had not appeared for three years, and its appearance now still made her feel uncomfortable as always.
Lu Xiaohua nodded: "Who says not? But - now that she has appeared, you should be careful. Last time she framed my fourth brother, her second aunt cleared her of all charges. She really got it easy on her."
A few days later, Lu Qinchuan had to lead people to cooperate with local authorities to carry out a special mission. Since it was special, he couldn't even tell the people who slept in the same bed with him.
Having experienced too many secret missions in the past three years, Zhou Ruoyu was smart enough not to ask about it, but just silently helped him pack his luggage.
"I might also have to go to South City. I don't know which of us will come back first."
The rise of high-end clothing has always been in Nancheng, which is adjacent to the port city and is a trendsetting fashion trendsetter.
The light in Lu Qinchuan's lowered eyes dimmed. "Who's going with you? Although that place is prosperous, the security conditions are extremely poor. Business safety must be put first."
"Director Zhang and Li Ming will be going together. They're just investigating the market and won't be bringing any cash, so it's fine."
Zhou Ruoyu raised her eyes and smiled gently, her delicate eyebrows and eyes blooming in front of him like flowers.
Lu Qinchuan frowned. His wife looked very unsafe. In such a place where all kinds of people mixed together, there were many crimes involving money and sex. Director Zhang and Li Ming, two weak men, probably couldn't even protect themselves.
He pursed his lips, but didn't say anything in the end.
The day after Lu Qinchuan left home, Zhou Ruoyu arranged everything for her children and the household, packed her luggage, and boarded a train heading south with Director Zhang and Li Ming.
Also coming with them was a female accountant from the textile factory named Xiao Li. She was Director Zhang’s niece and was very reliable.
Zhou Ruoyu understood Director Zhang’s intention. Everything was arranged for her safety.
It was indeed worrying to let Zhou Ruoyu, a beautiful woman, stay in a hotel alone, but with Xiao Li, at least there was someone she could talk to.
Although the train from Luancheng to Nancheng is a direct train, it has to stop at every station, and the time spent on the train alone is more than 30 hours, so Li Ming, who has plenty of money, bought sleeper berths for everyone.
The two upper and lower levels of the soft sleeper berths were just the right size for the four of them, and since they were all together, it reduced some safety concerns.
The soft sleeper compartment is relatively clean and there is no strong smell of cigarettes or sweat.
There was no conversation during the day, and at night everyone packed up and went to bed.
When Factory Director Zhang snored across from her, Zhou Ruoyu couldn't fall asleep. She thought Wei Guo and Zhen Qi were already asleep by now, and wondered if they'd looked for her. Then she thought of Lu Qinchuan, wondering if he'd gone off into the mountains again to carry out some secret mission...
Just as she was daydreaming, she suddenly saw a dark shadow peeking into their carriage, as if trying to determine whether the people on each bunk were fast asleep. He stood there for a long time without moving.
Zhou Ruoyu's heart was beating like a drum, and he stepped on a landmine just as he set out.
The man stood there for a while, then began to search the suitcases under the bed. Zhou Ruoyu, who was sleeping on the upper bunk, shouted at the top of her lungs, "What are you doing?! Stealing our things!"
The man obviously didn't expect that there was still someone awake at this time, and he shuddered with fright.
But the man did not leave, instead two more people gathered at the door.
At this time, the other three people also woke up. Li Ming was the first to stand up and shouted, "What are you doing! I called the train police!"
The person at the door walked in shaking his head. In the moonlight, Zhou Ruoyu saw that he was holding a shining dagger in his hand.
"Be good and keep quiet. If you piss me off, I'll kill you all with a single knife and send you to hell. How can you be happy about that?"
When Director Zhang, who was sharing the upper bunk, saw this, he hurriedly said, "No, no, no, we can talk it over. We can talk it over."
As he spoke, he climbed down the ladder and handed each of them a cigarette. "Brothers, we are all here to make a living. It's not easy to support a family. Harmony brings wealth, harmony brings wealth."
Director Zhang had mastered the flattery tactics of merchants in the old society to the fullest extent. It was because of this tactic that he was able to avoid being paraded through the streets or demoted like Li Ming's parents during the storm.
But these people didn't seem to buy it. The one who was rummaging through the luggage stood up and pulled out a dagger, even pointing it at Director Zhang's neck.
"You old man are good at talking, but I really want to be friendly. Who will give me money if I'm friendly? Hand over all the money you have on you, and stop talking nonsense!"
"Here, in my shirt pocket..." Director Zhang pointed with his eyes at the shirt hanging on the hanger.
Another person stepped forward, took off his clothes, took out some money from his jacket pocket, turned around and counted it in the moonlight.
"Boss, the total is one hundred and fifty-six dollars."
It’s already a lot. It’s several months’ salary for an employee in this day and age.
The man holding the knife against Director Zhang chuckled: "Besides, where is it hidden? If you go to South City without a thousand or eight hundred yuan on you, your trip will be in vain."
It was obvious that this man had figured out the intentions of the people going to South City and was certain that they still had money to hand over.
Factory Director Zhang made a face of pain and held out his hands. "Brother, we really are out of stock. We came from Luancheng and only wanted to inspect the area this time. We didn't dare to purchase any more."
"No more?" The man looked at Li Ming with a cigarette in his mouth. Li Ming was held at the waist by another man with a knife, and he could not move.
"Search him!"
At a command, the man who was pressing against Li Ming's waist began to touch him.
"No."
"There are two women here, don't let them go either, search them all!"
It was impossible to hide and keep silent, and the boss had already started to stare at her.
Zhou Ruoyu had no choice but to climb down and stand side by side with Xiao Li.
Li Ming said, "Boss, it's impossible for a woman to carry money on her body. She's also afraid of being robbed on the train."
"Pa!" Li Ming was slapped in the face. "Sorry for talking too much! If we can't find any money today, none of you will be able to get off the train standing!"
He walked forward angrily, his eyes sparkling in the moonlight: "What a pretty girl! Even if it's free, just sleep with me and we'll call it quits."
Zhou Ruoyu bit her lips tightly, her teeth almost sinking into the flesh of her lips, and her beautiful eyes stared at the man in front of her who was holding a cigarette and had a scoundrel look on his face.
The man had a filthy smile on his face, and a foul smell mixed with his breath came out of his mouth as he staggered towards her.
Zhou Ruoyu felt a surge of disgust and anger in her heart. Without thinking, she raised her hand and slapped the disgusting face with all her strength.
There was a crisp "slap" sound, and the sound of this slap was much louder than when the man hit Li Ming just now.
A stream of bright red blood flowed from the corner of the man's mouth.
He was a little dazed after being beaten, and his head shook violently like a rattle a few times, then he casually wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand.
However, this only aroused his animal nature even more strongly.
His cloudy eyes flashed with an evil light, and he grinned, revealing a row of yellow teeth. He said with a ferocious smile: "Hehe, I just like your stubborn look! It's really exciting to play with a woman like this!"
He suddenly stretched out a strong big hand and grabbed Zhou Ruoyu's slender neck tightly like an iron clamp.
As the man continued to increase the strength of his hands, Zhou Ruoyu suddenly felt difficulty breathing and her face turned red.
Seeing this, the man became even more complacent. He continued to squeeze her neck tightly and gnashed his teeth, saying sinisterly, "Go ahead and scream! Scream louder! Hit me again if you dare! Haha..."
