Quick Transmigration: The main focus is on speed.
Chapter 237 Life-saving grace
"Ruyan, Ruyan, don't be afraid, I'm here to save you!" Qin Shou's voice rang out from outside.
【What are you waiting for? Are you waiting for him to cling to you?】 Qi Yuan's voice echoed in her mind. Recalling the memories she had just received, Liu Ruyan couldn't help but shudder. No, she didn't want to be clung to by this kind of person for the rest of her life and die a violent death in the end.
"Don't say such discouraging things. I want to ask, is it possible to preserve evidence of Qin Shou's arson? It's such a pity that such a nice house was burned down like that." Liu Ruyan looked gloomy.
After receiving Qi Yuan's affirmative reply, Liu Ruyan followed Qi Yuan's guidance and jumped out of the back window. As soon as she got out, she didn't look back and ran towards the mountain, afraid that if she was too slow, Qin Shou would hold her back and ruin her life.
"Qin Zhiqing, don't go in! It's dangerous inside!"
"No, don't stop me! Ruyan is still inside, I have to go save her!" Qin Shou tried to push away the villagers' hands and rush in. With a few pulls and tugs, seeing that the fire had been mostly extinguished and that there was no danger, the villagers let Qin Shou pass.
Qin Shou finally mustered seventy percent of his strength to shake off the villagers' hands and rushed into the house, calling out Liu Ruyan's name as he went. His manner was more like demanding a debt than rescuing someone.
Isn't this just collecting a debt?
Liu Ruyan and Qin Shou were sent-down youth. There are many kinds of sent-down youth. Liu Ruyan's family was sent down, and she came to Hongqi Village alone at the age of fifteen.
Qin Shou, being the son of an ordinary worker, naturally looked down on Liu Ruyan, though he never showed it to her.
But no one expected that the people who were sent to the countryside would be exonerated. Two generations of the Liu family became important scientific researchers in the country, and Liu Ruyan was about to return to the city to live the life of a young lady because of this.
Seeing this, Qin Shou distanced himself from his recent ambiguous relationship and started thinking about how to win over Liu Ruyan.
He tried everything – flirting, sweet talk, secretly sending love letters – but Liu Ruyan just wouldn't take the bait. This made Qin Shou question Liu Ruyan's taste and judgment. With Liu Ruyan returning to the city tomorrow and Qin Shou still unable to get her contact information, he thought of his parents who hadn't sent him anything for over half a year.
A bold idea popped into my head: to repay the life-saving grace, I should repay it with my body.
It's easier said than done; how many crisis moments are there really?
If there's no opportunity, then create one. And so, the girls' dormitory at the educated youth settlement inexplicably caught fire.
At this moment, only Liu Ruyan was in the room. Qin Shou was shouting so loudly that he became Liu Ruyan's savior. Needless to say, Qin Shou used the life-saving grace to control Liu Ruyan's life, and later, because of this, he married Liu Ruyan.
Yes, it's marriage.
After all, moving into the Liu family empty-handed, what else could it be but marriage? It couldn't be taking a wife, could it?
While Liu's parents were alive, Qin Shou did not reveal his true colors. However, after Liu's parents passed away, Qin Shou began to be away from home all day, and often returned with the scent of perfume and lipstick marks.
If Liu Ruyan questioned him, Qin Shou would simply say, "If I hadn't saved you back then, you would have died in the countryside long ago. What... what did I do?" No matter what the matter was, Qin Shou would always use this sentence to shut Liu Ruyan up.
However, in her previous life, Liu Ruyan seemed to be trapped by the debt of being saved. She was pushed off the mountain by Qin Shou, and even on her deathbed, she was still thinking that she had finally repaid the debt of being saved.
"Officer, I need to report a fire. Someone is setting fire to the educated youth compound..." With Qi Yuan's help, a bicycle appeared out of thin air, and Liu Ruyan rode it at breakneck speed towards the town. When she arrived at the police station, panting heavily, her first words immediately drew everyone's attention to herself.
Qin Shou rushed into the room, which was filled with thick smoke, obstructing his view. Finding the person wasn't something he could do at a glance. The person wasn't on the bed, nor in the closet. Qin Shou looked under the bed, thought for a moment, and then lay down, but still found nothing.
Just as Qin Shou was searching in vain, Liu Ruyan arrived with the police.
When the villagers saw Liu Ruyan, they all spoke up out of curiosity.
"Liu Zhiqing, what are you doing here?"
"That's right, Liu Zhiqing, aren't you inside? Qin Zhiqing was even trying to rush in to save you!"
"Hey? Hasn't Qin Zhiqing come out yet? The fire's all out. Oh no, could she have fainted inside?" Aunt Li slapped her thigh and rushed into the house. If someone really died, their Red Flag Village would definitely not do well in this year's evaluation.
After being reminded by Aunt Li, the others rushed into the house and soon found Qin Shou lying on the ground, muttering, "Ruyan, where are you?"
Seeing that Qin Shou was alright, neither fainted nor died, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and turned to leave. No one thought to tell Qin Shou that Liu Zhiqing was outside.
"Liu Zhiqing, why did you bring the police officers with you?" Aunt Liu sidled up to Liu Ruyan, but dared not speak loudly, as people in this era generally held the police in high esteem.
"Aunt Liu, I was taking a nap in the house when I suddenly smelled a pungent kerosene odor. I was curious about where the kerosene was coming from, so I went out to look for it, and that's when I saw Qin, the educated youth, setting a fire..."
"Huh? You mean Qin Zhiqing started the fire? That can't be right! As soon as Qin Zhiqing heard you were in trouble, he insisted on rushing in to save you. He cares about you so much, how could he start a fire?"
"What's the big deal? Maybe he just wanted to play the hero and save the damsel in distress. It's a pity the river in your village is too shallow, it doesn't even reach his knees, otherwise this educated youth Liu would probably be drinking water in the river by now!"
The one who said this was one of the police officers who came with them. They had seen too many things like this. When they passed by just now, he had taken a special look at the river in Hongqi Village. If the river had been a little more or a little wider, they wouldn't have had to set it on fire.
"Oh, right, these are photos provided by Liu Zhiqing. The person in them is Qin Zhiqing, isn't he?" The police showed the villagers several photos for identification. After confirming that it was Qin Shou, they put the photos away and went inside to arrest him.
"Hey? Liu Zhiqing, you got these photos developed so quickly?"
"That's not true. Liu Zhiqing used a Polaroid instant camera; the photos were ready in no time..."
"Liu Zhiqing, you clearly saw Qin Shou set fire, why didn't you stop him?"
Finally, someone asked the question. Liu Ruyan was waiting for it, thinking that if no one else asked, she would ask it herself. Now that's happened, Liu Ruyan's eyes immediately reddened, and she looked at the person who asked the question in a soft and weak manner.
"Are you stupid! What if Liu, the educated youth, alerts the enemy and Qin, then silences him?"
That's good now. Liu Ruyan doesn't need to say anything; someone else will naturally step in to explain.
When Qin Shou was escorted out by the police, he was still wondering where Liu Ruyan had hidden. He had personally seen Liu Ruyan taking a nap before he set the fire. He had even exchanged the kerosene for a penny with a villager from the next village.
"Comrade Liu, we're taking the person away. Thank you for your report. Remember to call the police if you need anything in the future."
"Liu Ruyan! What are you doing here! Shouldn't you be..." Hearing the policeman's words, Qin Shou looked up in shock and saw Liu Ruyan standing in front of him clean and tidy. Qin Shou couldn't understand why this was happening.
"Stop with the 'should I or shouldn't' nonsense. You're a really bad educated youth. Officer, take him away quickly and send him to a farm for reform!"
"Giving him the farm is too good for him; he should go to jail!"
"What a waste of such a nice house! He should pay for it!"
Seeing that leaving would incite public outrage, the police quickly took Qin Shou away from Hongqi Village.
The next day, Liu's parents came to pick up Liu Ruyan. This time, there was no so-called savior. The villagers of Hongqi Village looked at Liu's parents with embarrassment. At this time, the people were simple and honest, and they felt even more respect for Liu's parents after learning that they were important national scientific researchers.
Their daughter was almost harmed by that scumbag, which made the villagers of Hongqi Village feel that they had aided and abetted the evildoer and almost sent the lambs to the slaughter. They became more polite to Mr. and Mrs. Liu and hinted at what had happened the day before.
Upon hearing this, Liu's parents did not ask the villagers, but planned to ask their daughter later. After giving the villagers gifts, the family of three left Hongqi Village completely.
"Village chief, do you think Liu Zhiqing's parents will blame us?"
The village chief looked at the exhaust fumes and dust left by the car, took a deep drag on his pipe, and shook his head. "No, but you all need to be careful. Make sure this doesn't happen again, especially during the year-end evaluations..."
"Ruyan, what's the story behind the villagers saying someone deliberately set the fire?" In the car, Mr. and Mrs. Liu exchanged a glance, and it was Mrs. Liu who spoke first.
Liu Ruyan naturally did not hide anything and told her parents everything that happened yesterday. She also recounted the events of her past life in the form of a dream. The two parents had a strong sense of empathy and hugged Liu Ruyan with tears in their eyes.
Those who survived forced labor during that period were certainly resourceful. Qin Shou did not receive the treatment of being sent to a farm and was instead sentenced to twelve years in prison.
By the time they emerged twelve years later, the daylilies would have been too cold.
After Liu Ruyan escaped her predicament, Qi Yuan went to the next small world, feeling that the day of his return to the space was not far away. At that time, he would eat, drink and have fun in it and never have to be a beast of burden again.

"Mom and Dad, please save me! I don't want to go to jail!"
No matter what, Qin Shou is still the son of the Qin family. Even if he didn't want to come, his parents still came. However, they didn't come to rescue him, but to make Qin Shou sign a letter severing ties for the sake of the other children's future.
In this day and age, if a criminal comes into your family, the gossip can be devastating.
Especially since the eldest brother, Qin Yang, is currently going on blind dates, many people have declined Qin Yang's offers after hearing that Qin Shou has become a criminal and will be imprisoned. If this continues, Qin Yang may be ruining his life.
That's the eldest son and grandson of the Qin family, so naturally they can't let Qin Shou, the second son, be held back.
When the letter severing ties was placed in front of Qin Shou, he looked at his parents in disbelief. He had long known that they were biased, but he never expected that they would have no parental love for him at all. For the sake of his older brother and younger brother, they actually wanted to sever ties with him.
They're dreaming!
"No, I would rather die than sign it. Even if I end up in jail, I will haunt you for the rest of my life and make sure that my brother and I can never shake off the label of being criminal brothers!"
Qin Shou, inside the railing, laughed heartily. Qin's parents, outside the railing, exchanged a glance, went outside, published the story in the newspaper, and never saw Qin Shou again.
Because of his good behavior, Qin Shou was released from prison two years early. Over the years, the person he hated the most was not Liu Ruyan, who sent him to prison, but his biased parents. His older brother was clearly the most suitable to go to the countryside, but because his older brother had a job, he was the one who went to the countryside. If he hadn't gone to the countryside, this wouldn't have happened. So it's all Qin's parents' fault.
They are biased. They always say that the older brother gives way to the younger brother, but they never ask the older brother to give up his job to them.
Qin Shou completely forgot that Qin Yang got the job because he risked his life to save someone. Because of this, Qin Yang was bedridden for more than half a year before he could move around on his own. This job was given to him as a way of repaying a debt of gratitude, and it should never have fallen into the hands of anyone else.
Qin Shou could only see his parents' favoritism towards his elder brother and younger brother, but he couldn't see the contributions his elder brother and younger brother made to the family.
Ten years have passed, and the Qin family has not moved. Qin Shou easily found his way home. Seeing his parents each leading a small child, Qin Shou immediately glared at them with resentment and rushed over without thinking.
"Bang—" The truck braked suddenly, but still managed to knock the person who suddenly appeared out of nowhere flying into the air.
The moment his body was lifted into the air, Qin Shou regained his memories of his past life. Comparing his peaceful days in his previous life to his present, Qin Shou regretted his past actions. He should have spent two more cents to get Liu Ruyan some milk laced with sleeping pills.
Qin Shou died, in front of his parents whom he considered biased. However, Qin's parents had no idea that the person who was hit and killed was their good-for-nothing second son. Afraid that the scene would frighten their two young grandsons, they left with their people.
Lying on the ground, vomiting blood, Qin Shou stared in the direction his parents had left, and closed his eyes in resentment.
