Chapter 813: Chapter 813: The Substitute Bride Sister 28

"I... I don’t want people to know that I was kidnapped."

"Me neither. I don’t want it to be spread around. I’m already seventeen, about to be married, and if the word gets out that I was kidnapped, I certainly won’t get a good marriage."

"Officers, this concerns our lifelong happiness. Can you keep it a secret for us?"

"Officers, we’re begging you."

A woman kneeled down and kowtowed to the officers.

Seeing her, the other women also started kneeling and kowtowing.

A group of straightforward male officers faced the situation with heads feeling bigger than millstones, but the team leader spoke up, "Since you don’t want your families involved, after we finish recording your statements, you can sign them, put your fingerprints and then you can leave."

"Thank you, officers, thank you."

The group of women were moved to tears.

Yuan Chun was the last one to give her statement. After finishing, she rode her bicycle to pick up her two sons from school and go home to cook.

Meng Fei returned home as Yuan Chun was just putting rice into the pot.

Yuan Chun said, "Dinner will be a bit late today. I’ve heated water in the yard; you take Da Niu and Xiao Niu for a bath first."

Meng Fei noticed several stains on his wife’s hem and asked, "A Yuan, did you go back to Tufang Village to help your parents today?"

Yuan Chun hesitated for a moment, then said quietly, "No, Meng. This afternoon I encountered something, and I’ll tell you in detail after dinner."

"What is it that you look so serious?"

It was the first time Meng Fei had seen his wife’s expression so grave.

Yuan Chun’s eyes instantly filled with tears, and with a bit of a choke, she said, "Meng, I’ll tell you after we eat."

"A Yuan, looking like this, how can I eat my dinner? Tell me, is it your sister bullying you again?"

"No, I didn’t see her today. It’s... it’s..." Yuan Chun maintained her persona, hesitated for a long time, before finally mumbling, "Meng, this afternoon after dropping off Da Niu and Xiao Niu at school, on my way back I encountered traffickers."

Meng Fei’s face turned white, "You... you’re okay, right? Did they hit you?"

"No, they were struck dead by lightning, maybe even the heavens couldn’t stand their wrongdoing. Right after I was captured, the heavens sent down more than ten bolts of lightning and killed the traffickers."

"Did you get hurt?" Meng Fei’s face turned paler, pulling his wife, checking her all over.

Yuan Chun laughed and cried, "If I was hurt, could I still be standing here cooking for you? I’m okay, really, I’m not hurt."

"That’s good, that’s good."

Suddenly, Meng Fei hugged her tightly, his entire body trembling slightly, "A Yuan, thank goodness you’re all right, thank goodness you came back. Otherwise, how would I live, what would happen to Da Niu and Xiao Niu?"

"A Yuan, we should hire some bodyguards, buy a car, hire a driver. From now on, let the driver and bodyguards handle picking up the kids. Let a maid buy groceries and cook. A Yuan, you have to listen to me this time. We should move into a bigger house with more people. It’s livelier, and you must take bodyguards with you whenever you go out. You absolutely can’t go out alone."

"A Yuan, you must listen to me; I can’t bear the pain of losing you."

Meng Fei held her tightly, whispering in her ear.

His voice quivered with fear, apprehension, and lingering dread, and Yuan Chun patted his back and nodded in agreement.
