235 Not a Bad Person
Zeng Li took a deep breath in exasperation. However, it didn’t matter, since he still had a second move. “The back of the bicycle is filled with books. Yu Bing, you might as well take my car. Otherwise, you’ll have to walk back.”
Yu Bing looked at the large sack on the ground. The books inside weighed at least 60 to 70 pounds and were vertical, so it was indeed inconvenient for her to carry them. However, she said nonchalantly, “It’s fine. It’s just a few steps.”
Xiao Sheng wanted to walk with Yu Bing, but Yu Bing’s stomach began to growl again.
Yu Bing was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a place to hide.
Xiao Sheng said to Yu Bing, “Come ride the bike. I’ll run and push from behind. This way, it won’t be too difficult for you to ride it.”
Seeing this, Zeng Li had no choice but to compromise. “Put the books in my trunk!”
After Yu Bing thought about it, she finally agreed. Zeng Li would just help them transport something a kilometer away. Even an ordinary friend would help. When they returned to S City with the goods, she would send him some snacks to return the favor.
At this moment, a small incident happened in the factory. Jiang Chun was now considered a small leader in the factory. In order to fulfill the duties of her position and to not let others say that Yu Bing was playing favorites, she was basically the first to arrive every day and the last to leave after work. Today was no exception.
At 12:15 p.m., after everyone left, she went around the courtyard to Production Room 2 and started patrolling.
The two production rooms in the factory were connected through the disinfection room. Jiang Chun didn’t find anything unusual after walking around, so she locked the door.
At this moment, she heard a sound from the direction of the storeroom. Jiang Chun suspected that it was a rat. After all, rats had appeared before. She thought that it was about time to raise a cat.
The warehouse was only two meters tall. There was a ventilation window in front and behind, but they were all surrounded by barbed wires. The other four places were sealed, leaving only a single door for entering and exiting. The workers had no idea how the rat had run in under their noses.
The warehouse key was in the hands of Director Huang, who was in charge of the warehouse. Although Jiang Chun didn’t have the key, she still planned to knock on the door a few times to see if she could scare the rat away.
“Huh? Director Huang didn’t even lock the warehouse door after leaving?!” Jiang Chun was a little angry when she saw the lock hanging at the side. If someone with ulterior motives sneaked in and stole everything, it would affect the delivery time and they would have to pay heavy compensation.
Seeing that the door wasn’t locked, Jiang Chun decided to catch the rat. She saw a wooden stick beside the door, so she picked up the wooden stick and pushed the door open.
When hunting a rat, she had to trap it inside first. Hence, as soon as she entered the warehouse, Jiang Chun turned around and closed the door. Just as she was about to turn around, a dagger was pressed against her neck, scaring Jiang Chun so much that she didn’t dare to move. She said with a quivering voice, “If there’s anything, let’s talk it out.”
“Don’t be afraid. I won’t hurt you, but you can’t scream.”
When the man’s deep and hoarse voice sounded in Jiang Chun’s ear, although Jiang Chun was panicking, she could still hear the hint of weakness in the man’s voice. However, her life was in his hands, so she didn’t dare to do anything. She immediately promised, “I won’t scream.”
Cui Jin pressed the wound on his abdomen as he leaned against the wall.
He was already at the end of his rope. From what he had heard outside the door previously, this woman was responsible. At least, she had good character. As for whether she would keep her promise, he could only take a gamble.
When Jiang Chun heard the sound behind her, she slowly turned around and saw a man with a buzz cut. He was wearing a tight black T-shirt, but his pants were camouflaged. His face was painted, and he looked very disheveled.
When she saw that the man’s fingers were bleeding, she knew that he was injured.
Cui Jin endured the sleepiness caused by blood loss and stared at Jiang Chun as he said, “I’m not a bad person. Please take me to a safe place secretly. I can’t be discovered by anyone.”
When Jiang Chun saw the man’s tough temperament, she thought of her uncle, who was a retired soldier. She could roughly guess the man’s identity, but she wasn’t sure. However, the man’s gaze was very piercing and righteous.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Chun chose to trust her intuition.
In this era, anyone would treat saving soldiers as an honorable thing. Since the other party wanted to hide his whereabouts, Jiang Chun guessed that he was on a secret mission.
