After transmigrating into the body of the female supporting character's biological mother, she

The old man across from Su Lang asked.

She'll be three years old soon.

"blessed."

"Yes."

Lin Zhilan took a little longer than expected, and Su Lang was a little worried. He imitated Lin Zhilan and said gently, "Baby, shall Daddy carry you to find Mommy?"

Linlin immediately came closer.

Su Lang picked her up and said to the young man, "Comrade, could you please watch my luggage for me?"

"no problem."

When Lin Zhilan came out of the restroom, she saw Su Lang holding the child and standing outside the door with his back to her, like a statue of a guardian deity.

While she was in a daze, her wrist was suddenly gripped tightly by a thin but strong hand.

An elderly woman with gray hair and a sallow complexion approached her, her cloudy eyes gleaming with urgency. "I've finally found you! You brat, I scolded you once and you ran off everywhere. You'll be scared when someone kidnaps you!"

Lin Zhilan stumbled as she was pulled, realizing she had encountered human traffickers.

"Su Lang..."

As soon as she called out, the tall figure turned around immediately, strode to Lin Zhilan's side, held Linlin firmly in one arm, and used his free hand to forcefully control the old woman's wrist that was gripping Lin Zhilan, his five fingers tightening like iron clamps.

"Let go!"

Su Lang's voice was not loud, but it carried a chill and aggression.

The old woman cried out in pain and released her grip. When she met Su Lang's cold and stern gaze, most of her previous strength dissipated.

Her eyes darted around, and she said awkwardly, "It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. This old woman's eyes are playing tricks on me, I've mistaken you for someone else. I'm so sorry, so sorry..."

As she spoke, she quietly moved backward, thinking she wanted to slip away as quickly as possible.

Su Lang held her hand firmly, intending to hand her over to the train police.

Seeing this, Lin Zhilan pretended to be scared, leaned against him coquettishly, and whispered in his ear, "Let her go first."

She had seen similar reports in her past life, and this must be a case of organized crime.

First, send an elderly person or a man to find the target. Then, pretend to be the mother or husband and try to take the girl away.

Even if the girl resists and explains, they will twist it into her throwing a tantrum, and the uninformed masses may be deceived in this way, and even help the bad guys persuade the girl.

Even if we catch the old woman now, if she insists she's mistaken, not only will we fail to convict her in the end, but we might also alert the accomplices and let them go.

Su Lang glanced down at her and released the old woman's hand.

The old woman hurriedly ran away.

Lin Zhilan whispered, "Tell the train police to find this person. I suspect she has accomplices."

"Hmm," Su Lang said in a low voice, putting his arm around her shoulder, "I'll take you back to your carriage first."

Back in the carriage, Su Lang turned around to find the train police officer.

Lin Zhilan was filled with anxiety, but she breathed a sigh of relief when he returned.

"Did you catch them?"

"Yes, there were four people in total, and they also saved a girl."

The old man, who was leaning weakly against the headboard, opened his eyes. "A human trafficker?"

"Um."

Su Lang's taciturn demeanor left the old man speechless.

At noon, to express their gratitude, the train attendant specially delivered two boxed lunches and two stir-fried dishes to Su Lang.

Braised pork slices and stewed ribs made for a pretty good meal.

Su Lang had a policy against accepting even a needle or thread from the masses, but he insisted on giving them money.

The elderly and young people next to them clearly didn't mind spending money, and ordered two identical portions.

Perhaps feeling bored, Linlin was listless and had no appetite.

Lin Zhilan coaxed her to finish an egg, then ate a couple of bites herself, but couldn't eat anymore.

Su Lang peeled an egg and handed it to her, then took her lunchbox and naturally continued eating.

Lin Zhilan pursed her lips. This was the first time someone had eaten her leftovers, and she felt a little uncomfortable.

That seems too impolite, too intimate.

She tapped her daughter's little nose. "Stinky baby, it's all your fault! You didn't want to eat, did you?"

Linlin thought her mother was playing with her and giggled.

A smile flickered in Su Lang's eyes as he finished his meal in a few bites.

In the afternoon, after taking a nap, Linlin said she was hungry, so Lin Zhilan took out some pancakes and chicken sauce from her bag.

As soon as the jar of chicken sauce was opened, the rich aroma of meat and oil, mixed with a mellow spiciness, slowly spread throughout the carriage, undoubtedly whetting everyone's appetite.

"Gulp..."

A clear sound of swallowing saliva came from the side.

Lin Zhilan paused, her hand still holding the scoop of chicken sauce. "Comrade, would you like to try some?"

"Yes, I want it." The old man said without hesitation.

"Sir, the doctor said..."

"Alright! I'm already in this state, it's not easy for me to eat what I want."

The young man was taken aback, his eyes reddening slightly. "Sir, didn't you say that the hospital over there could perform the surgery?"

He was feeling sad when a patty with chicken sauce was offered to him.

The chicken sauce was a glossy, reddish-brown color, and had a wonderfully fragrant aroma. He unconsciously swallowed.

Su Lang said coldly, "Aren't you going to catch it?"

"Oh, thank you," he sniffed.

The chicken sauce smelled so good that quite a few people came over wanting to try some, but Su Lang, who was sitting outside, glared at them one by one.

After finishing a pancake, the somewhat unsatisfied old man looked at Su Lang and asked, "Are you a soldier?"

"Yes."

Which military region?

"No comment."

The old man choked, then took out his military officer's ID from his breast pocket and handed it to Su Lang.

Su Lang opened it and saw that it belonged to Cheng Qingshan, the commander-in-chief of District J.

"Greetings, sir!" He stood up and saluted.

Cheng Qingshan returned the greeting and smiled, "I'm retired now, and I'm not some kind of leader anymore. You're from the South China Sea Fleet?"

"Yes."

"Perfect timing, I need to have surgery at your military hospital, we can look after each other along the way."

Cheng Qingshan's bodyguard, Tu Jing, remained expressionless upon hearing this, but inwardly suspected that his superior had taken a liking to the food.

But this sauce is really delicious!

In the evening, they enjoyed a satisfying meal with chicken sauce.

Lin Zhilan took the child, along with a towel and a basin, to wash up quickly.

Su Lang stayed behind her the whole time, which inexplicably made her feel at ease.

The bus was a mixed bag; all sorts of people were on board.

There are elderly people, women, and children here. Su Lang and Tu Jing discussed it and decided that one of them would keep watch for the first half of the night, and the other would keep watch for the second half.

The clattering of the train continued incessantly. Lin Zhilan originally thought she would have a hard time falling asleep, but to her surprise, she quickly lost consciousness and her breathing became steady.

When she woke up the next day and got down from the top bunk, Su Lang seemed to still be asleep.

Seeing that he had nothing on him, Lin Zhilan covered him with the blanket she had used all night.

Worried that Linlin might fall from the upper bunk after waking up, she asked Tu Jing to help bring the child down and place her next to Su Lang.

After doing all that, she went to wash up.

Su Lang, who had been lying down, opened his eyes at this moment, picked up the blanket covering him, and a carefree smile appeared on his lips.

Having smelled so many smelly, sweaty blankets in the army, this is the first time I've smelled something fragrant.

It's still better to have a wife!
