1970s: A hot-tempered wife who accompanied a soldier to the military compound and made a fortune.

Chapter 212 Escaped

Chu Xue was gazing absentmindedly at the scenery outside the window when she saw a sidecar motorcycle overtake the bus they were riding in at an extremely fast speed.

When she finally saw the group of people amidst the flying dust, her eyes widened in surprise. Weren't these the two girls from the state-run restaurant?
When she saw the dagger in the man's hand in the sidecar, she immediately thought of what had happened before and realized that these people must also be the ones Fu Yancheng and his men were trying to capture.

Just then, someone in the car also noticed something was wrong with the tricycle: "That man has a knife, and that girl has blood on her neck."

"Oh my god, have those two girls been kidnapped?"

The driver in front got impatient: "Shut the hell up, all of you! If you don't want to live, don't drag me down with you!"

The shout immediately alerted the people in the car; if these people attacked them, they would be the ones to suffer.

For a moment, no one dared to speak. They just watched as the three-wheeled vehicle overtook the car and sped forward, ignoring the bumps on the dirt road.

Some of the women patted their chests, whether out of lingering fear or concern for the two girls on the bus.

But after a short while, the driver of the car began to slow down, and then simply stopped on the side of the road.

Passengers in the back couldn't see what was happening in front, and one of them asked with a puzzled look, "Why did the bus stop when no one is getting on or off?"

The driver said impatiently, "Shut up if you don't want anything to happen."

As he spoke, he deftly shifted into reverse, but the road was already narrow, and there was a pile of stones on the side of the road. Before the car could even turn around, it was stopped by someone: "Stop the car and open the door."

When everyone saw the man under the car brandishing a dagger, chaos erupted.

Chu Xue's face also darkened: What bad luck.

The shouting from below the car intensified, and they kept banging on the car door.

The ticket seller saw the man picking up stones from the roadside and was so anxious he was almost in tears: "Brother Lu, hurry, he's going to use the stones to smash the doors and windows."

But the road was too narrow, and although he had tried his best, he was still a step too slow.

With a 'crack, crash,' the glass on the car door shattered. The man holding the dagger was still yelling, 'Stop the car, you hear me?'

The driver's forehead was covered in sweat, but he didn't stop what he was doing.

Because the movement was too sudden, the car shook violently, and the passengers inside were thrown into chaos, with screams and cries filling the air.

Chu Xue looked up and saw the crank handle on the hood of the car. She climbed over, grabbed it, and jabbed it at the person outside who was trying to climb onto the car with his bare hands. The person was caught off guard, cried out "Ah!", covered the spot where he was jabbed, and took several steps back.

After realizing it was a girl who had attacked her, she said, "You son of a bitch, how dare you lay a hand on me? I'll skin you alive!"

Just then, the driver finally turned the car around and sped off.

They came face to face with Fu Yancheng and his group who were chasing after them. The driver was too focused on his work and didn’t notice who was in the jeep. He just kept waving his hand at the car and said, “Don’t go over there. There are robbers ahead. Don’t go over there.”

The jeep was going too fast, so it probably didn't even hear what he was shouting.

After driving for a while and seeing no movement behind him, the driver stopped the car, saying, "That was fucking terrifying."

Chu Xue realized that although the driver's personality wasn't the best, he was a really good person. If it were someone else, they would have been scared and stopped the car long ago, but for the sake of all the passengers, he still tried his best to escape the disaster in that critical moment.

Whether he did it for himself or for the passengers, he deserves praise.

Once the car came to a complete stop, the driver slumped into his seat.

After realizing what had happened, the sales clerk asked, "Brother Lu, are you alright?"

The driver paused for a moment and said, "I'm fine, damn it."

Turning his head to check the situation inside the car, he met Chu Xue's gaze from behind, who was still holding a crank handle: "Little girl, thank you for your help earlier."

Chu Xue glanced at the crank handle in her hand and quickly put it back in its place: "No need to thank me. You've worked so hard for everyone, I can't just stand by and watch."
