Part Three Chapter 1 Rescue

l was overcrowded.The first person she thought of asking for help was Zhuo Yu'an. No matter how their relationship ended, or whether she agreed to stop contacting Zhuo Yu'an as Process Zhimin had requ...Chen Ning has the habit of running at night, which is a way for her to relieve stress. She has run familiar routes: Jingshan Hill, Tiananmen Square, Shichahai Lake, Olympic Park, and Chaoyang Park. After becoming familiar with them, she opened up a new route herself, starting from the subway near her office and running all the way to the Military Museum along the subway line. The route she chose successfully avoids attractions and crowds, making it very quiet. Often, only her breathing and footsteps echo in the narrow alleys. As she runs faster and faster, all the dormant pictures in her mind emerge one by one. 。That year, she ran the same way, running out of that extremely remote mountain village and into the mountains. 。That was her second escape, the first time she had been caught and beaten nearly to death. 。But that trip wasn't a total loss. She remembered the terrain well, at least knowing which direction had a higher chance of success. 。Behind her, the sounds of her family's pursuit echoed. Down the winding mountain road at the foot of the mountain, motorcycles chased after her, their engines roaring and echoing through the valley. 。She didn't know if she could escape, and she didn't know what would happen if she was caught again, whether she would be killed. All she could do was run forward, no matter the cost. 。But she was ultimately unable to escape the clutches of her family. The moment she was caught, she saw a man in army green camouflage. She initially thought it was a hallucination, because she yearned so much to be rescued that she imagined seeing a soldier descend from the heavens in this deep mountain. 。That was the last day of Song Jingye's team training on the mountain. The moment the girl appeared in his sight, he thought she was a wild deer that had dashed out from the mountains. 。Her clothes were in tatters, her hair tangled with strands falling across her face. Her skin was sallow and her face was gaunt, so much so that her large eyes seemed to bulge out. She stared at him with a mixture of despair and hope. Held back by villagers behind her, she remained silent, her gaze unwavering. 。Chen Ling had not seen anyone from outside the village for too long, always thinking it was her hallucination, until she was dragged back, despairing, when a clear and dignified voice suddenly came from behind: "Wait..." 。She suddenly turned around, tears welling up in her eyes in an instant. This voice was so real, this person was so real, it wasn't an illusion, it was a real, live person. 。

The villagers who were grabbing her were the eldest and second eldest of their family. Seeing a stranger in the deep mountains, they not only didn't stop, but actually grabbed her and hurried faster. 。They were also guilty, knowing they had done something illegal. They didn't want to have any contact with outsiders. Their hands, like pliers, gripped her arms tightly on either side, threatening: "Get out of here, or we'll kill you." 。Chen Ling struggled with all her might and shouted at the man: "Help! I was kidnapped by them." 。She got straight to the point, not a single word of unnecessary chatter as she sent out her distress call. Her voice, strained and broken like an old air compressor, spoke of nervousness or excitement. 。

"Damn girl, don't talk nonsense!" 。Those two men dragged her away, nearly breaking her arms in the process. She had no control over her body as they pulled her forward. 。At that moment, the man behind them stood before them, blocking their path. 。Let her go. 。His voice was powerful and to the point, not a word wasted. He stood there like an unyielding mountain. 。

"Mind your own damn business" 。One of the men wanted to step forward and push him, but when he got closer, he found that the other man was half a head taller than him, with a strong build. He felt intimidated and had no courage. The other man could easily crush him if he wanted to, so he instinctively took a step back. 。。The second son, Lao Er, released Chen Ning's hand and together with the eldest brother rushed forward to pounce on the man, but it was no use. The two country men couldn't subdue him. 。Song Jingye only flashed his shoulder slightly, and the two men in front of him missed, not being his opponent at all. 。He dodged while also pulling Chen Ning up from the ground and shielding her behind him. 。Seeing this, the two men's eyes flashed with malice, and they wanted to rush forward and grab Chen Ling back. 。At this moment, Song Jingye's troops had already rushed over upon hearing the commotion. At the other end of the mountain road, a villager was shouting: "Big Brother, Second Brother, go back quickly! Third Brother is not doing well!" 。With the situation pressing, the villager glared viciously at Chen Ning who was blocked behind by several soldiers. Then, he quickly disappeared from that end of the mountain road. 。Song Jingye discovered he'd picked up a big problem. The girl seemed to be terrified, rescued but behaving like a startled bird, following him blindly without knowing what to do. Any other soldier who got too close would cause her to tense up involuntarily. 。Their military truck was parked on the winding road at the foot of the mountain, he asked the driver for the keys and drove himself. The girl sat in the passenger seat, and the rest of them all squeezed into the back of the truck bed. 。The car jolted along the bumpy mountain road, then smoothed out onto a flat country highway before finally reaching the city's main thoroughfares. Song Jingye's unit was stationed on the outskirts of the city, crossing right through to the city center. He gestured ahead. "That's the police station up front. I'll leave you there. You can feel free to ask them anything, they'll definitely help you." 。Song Jingye drove the car to the police station, got out of the car, and walked into the police station with the girl. He found a familiar person, briefly explained the basic situation, and finally said, "I'll leave her to you, I'm leaving." 。He wasn't one to meddle, sitting here was already going above and beyond, so he hopped straight into the truck, turned the wheel, and backed out. 。In the rearview mirror, he saw a girl barefoot, running timidly to the police station door, looking at his car. Her clothes were dusty and tattered from being torn while climbing the mountain. There were scratches on her forehead and cheekbones above her big eyes. She looked like a deer that had strayed into the city by mistake. 。Song Jingye sighed, being a good person to the end, he stopped the car and threw the keys to the driver, "You guys go back first." 。He walked straight to the girl's side, ready to take her inside to find the officer they had met earlier, only to hear the girl whisper softly behind him, "I have no family" 。Song Jingye stopped in his tracks and turned back to look at her one last time, finding it a bit hard to bear. She looked barely out of her teens, thin and pale, like a refugee. To be precise, she was just that—a refugee. 。"Are you hungry" Song Jingye asked. 。The girl nodded. 。Let's go eat first.

The girl nodded again. 。Song Jingye glanced at her foot: "Wait for me a moment" 。Turning back to the police station, when he came out again he was holding a pair of men's slippers: "Make do with these, there are only men's." 。I had dinner at a small restaurant nearby. 。My name is Chen Ning. 。"My ID number is xxx" 。Song Jingye was surprised by her sudden self-introduction, and then he had to admire her. He admired that she, though clearly still shaken, could speak so calmly and clearly report her information, saving him the trouble of asking. 。"Uncle, I lied just now. I have family. " 。She also confessed. 。et me tell you, if Shunxin's acquisition falls through, the first one to tear into me will be my old man. 。"Whoever dares to mess with you, your old man now worships you like an ancestor." 。Lu Kuò is...
