The three of them couldn’t beat Li Yue at all; resistance would only get them beaten up more viciously, so it was better to go to the police station and suffer less physical abuse, and maybe they could even get a doctor for them.
Seeing the three obediently get on and lie down in the cart, Li Yue pulled the wooden cart away. He wasn’t very familiar with this area and had to ask Dazhu where the police station was.
A city dweller dressed in fashionable attire pulling a wooden cart attracted a lot of attention as he passed through the village and town, some people even followed him to the entrance of the police station.
After an unknown amount of time, Shen Mianmian slowly opened her eyes to find herself sitting in a moving car, and her first thought was that she had been rescued.
This must be the same car that had passed them earlier.
Before she could react further, someone next to her asked, "Awake?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Shen Mianmian turned her head, surprised, and barely audibly uttered a small call.
"He... Brother He Nan?"
After two seconds of stunned silence, it all became clear to her; those two city dwellers they mentioned before she passed out were He Nan.
He had rescued her yet again.
He Nan frowned slightly at the sound of her voice, his expression cooling a bit, "Is your throat hurting?"
The pain wasn’t so noticeable when she was first being strangled, which allowed her to shout for help loudly, but later on, she could hardly make any sound at all.
Now, speaking made her throat burn painfully, her voice barely a whisper.
She glanced outside the car window and realized they weren’t on the way to her home, "Brother He Nan, where are we going now?"
"To the hospital." He Nan glanced at her and said indifferently, "If your throat is uncomfortable, talk less. There is hot water in the cup beside you; drink some to soothe your throat."
Shen Mianmian looked at the thermos in the car but didn’t reach for it, as it was probably He Nan’s, and it didn’t seem quite right for her to use it.
Seeing that she hadn’t touched the cup, thinking she might be averse to drinking from it because he had used it, he pursed his lips and said, "I haven’t drunk from that water yet."
Realizing the misunderstanding, Shen Mianmian’s face turned slightly red as she took the cup and sipped from it. The burning in her throat eased a bit.
As she gradually became more alert, she looked around the car’s interior and realized this wasn’t He Nan’s car. Plus, earlier Xu Haiyang had mentioned that two people from the city had followed them, so where was the other one?
And what happened to Xu Haiyang and the other two?
Honestly, with such a good opportunity, Shen Mianmian really wanted to send the three of them to jail.
By the time they got out, even if they still harbored thoughts of revenge against her, she wouldn’t be afraid anymore.
He Nan glanced at her, noticing her large eyes flickering restlessly as if pondering something, and said, "Li Yue took those three to the police station. They won’t be out for a few years."
At his words, Shen Mianmian’s eyes instantly brightened, and a hint of admiration showed in her gaze. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩⟡𝘧𝙞𝙧𝙚⟡𝘯𝘦𝘵
Brother He Nan was really too smart; she hadn’t said a word, yet he knew what she was thinking.
Now, although she had faced some trials, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise, and Xiaocui wouldn’t have to marry Xu Haiyang.
She hadn’t expected Xiaocui’s life to change in such a way.
In fact, when she was in the burlap sack, there was also a fleeting moment when she regretted interfering in the first place; after all, she wasn’t a saint or a living Buddha, and she had her selfish side as well.
But that thought was momentary.
