139: Chapter 135 Qin Fulin, the Person 139: Chapter 135 Qin Fulin, the Person After Qin i had taken the dicine, she felt sowhat better, but she kept closely following her big brother.
Whenever Qin Ye moved further away, she was overco with fear.
Seeing her like this, Qin Ye was in such pain.
“You should go back to sleep for a bit; big brother will make you breakfast.”
This should have been a peaceful New Year, but such an incident had occurred, sothing he had never anticipated.
Qin i imdiately shook her head, indicating she didn’t want to sleep.
Seeing this, Qin Ye had no choice but to let her keep following him.
Since there was quite a bit of food left over from yesterday, including buns…
Qin Ye heated so leftovers and stead a few more buns.
Considering his little sister’s health, he decided to boil an egg as well.
Qin i had a small appetite, and after the scare, she ate even less, only one egg from the plentiful breakfast.
The rest was left for Qin Ye to finish.
Taking into account Qin i’s illness, he didn’t let her do the dishes or any other housework.
Once everything was cleaned up, he said to Qin i, “izi, big brother needs to make a trip to town to report to the police.
Can you stay at ho on your own?”
Upon hearing she would be ho alone, Qin i was terrified.
Seeing her like this, Qin Ye sighed internally, “Then you co with big brother to town.
We can also get you checked out at the health clinic.”
When Qin i heard this, she quickly shook her head and said weakly, “I’ll be at ho.”
Qin Ye looked at her, “Can you manage being at ho?”
Qin i didn’t want to go to town at all; she nodded vigorously and repeated, “At ho.”
Seeing how frightened she was of going to town, Qin Ye relented to her wish, “Okay then, just stay in your room and make sure to lock the door.”
Qin i imdiately nodded.
After Qin Ye went back to his room to grab so things, he gave Qin i a few more instructions in the courtyard before pushing his bicycle out the door.
Once Qin i saw her big brother ride away on his bicycle, she quickly closed the main gate and hurried back to her room, securing the door latch…
Qin Ye rode his bicycle straight out of the house without informing the village leaders about the incident.
It would’ve been pointless anyway.
He rode as fast as he could to the town’s police station.
The duty officer was surprised to see him; after all, who shows up on the first day of the New Year?
“Comrade, what’s the matter?”
Qin Ye recounted the early morning events of the previous day, telling them about the two n who ca to kidnap him and placed particular emphasis on his sister’s illness, which prevented him from dealing with the two n.
They had escaped, and obviously…
there must have been more than two, certainly others involved.
The officer took the matter very seriously upon hearing this.
“We’ll start investigating this right away.”
Qin Ye nodded, “Alright, I’ll be heading back then.
My little sister was frightened last night, and I don’t feel at ease leaving her alone at ho.”
“Go ahead, and we’ll be over shortly.”
“Alright,” Qin Ye left the police station.
Unfortunately, there was no quicker way to communicate; otherwise, he would have certainly told his wife.
Without further thought, he rode the bicycle straight back to the village.
Upon arriving ho and seeing the door locked properly, he called out loudly, “Little sister, open the door.”
His voice was quite loud, and soon Qin i ca out to unlock the door.
The joy in her eyes was unmistakable when she saw her big brother.
Qin Ye, relieved to see her happiness and that she hadn’t fallen ill, said, “Move aside, little sister.
Big brother is coming in.”
Qin i imdiately made way.
Qin Ye pushed the bicycle into the courtyard, parked it, and began cleaning the yard.
The police arrived soon after, and they asked Qin Ye to take them to the scene of the cri.
After examining the location, they proceeded to conduct inquiries throughout the village…
Only then did the villagers learn that on the previous night, New Year’s Eve, soone had attempted to steal from Qin Ye’s family ho.
Indeed, steal.
Because Qin Ye had requested the police not to disclose the attempted kidnapping of his sister.
After all, his little sister was thirteen now, and if word got out that she had been abducted, it could tarnish her reputation.
He didn’t want to invite any unnecessary trouble.
If it were him…
well, he was indifferent, as his own reputation couldn’t get much worse.
But his little sister was different; the reputation of a young girl was important, especially as she was going to school this year.
He didn’t want her to be whispered about at school.
The police consented to this request, understanding that society was sowhat unfair towards girls.
A small matter could get blown out of proportion.
In recent years, there had been several cases in the area of girls with damaged reputations, unable to find marriage partners or resorting to jumping into rivers due to the gossip.
The villagers were abuzz with the news; none had considered that soone might have broken into Qin Ye’s house during the festive season.
But upon reflection, it was not so surprising, as his family ho was well-built—truly one of a kind in the village, a clear sign of wealth.
If not his house, whose would they rob?
To be honest, they felt no sympathy for the theft at Qin Ye’s ho.
It’s always the sa with people…
they might feel so pity for those who are struggling, but once soone from the mire rises up to live a hundred tis better than them, envy is sure to rear its ugly head.
Qin Fulin arrived at Qin Ye’s house and paused, his eyes glittering at the sight of the bright new courtyard.
He then knocked on the door…
Qin Ye ca to open it and frowned imdiately upon seeing who it was.
“Qin Ye, I heard there was a thief at your place, is everything okay?”
Qin Ye looked at him, “Nothing’s wrong, go back ho.”
Qin Fulin was not upset by his response, “I ca to see how i is doing.
I heard she got quite a scare; I wanted to check on her.”
Qin Ye’s gaze grew sharper, “Where did you hear that i was frightened?”
Fulin imdiately replied, “I guessed.
i is timid and not well; sothing like this happening last night, she would certainly be startled.
So I wanted to see if she’s alright—if she is, good…”
Qin Ye’s look remained sharp, sizing up the man in front of him, but he could not find anything out of the ordinary.
He withdrew his gaze, “The thief ca in the middle of the night; i had no idea, how could she have been frightened?”
“Ah!” The concerned expression faded from Fulin’s face, “Then that’s good.
When I was coming, I was still worried she might have been scared.
Seems I was overthinking.
Okay then, I’ll head back.
If there’s anything you need, just let know.”
After that, he turned and left.
Qin Ye watched his retreating figure thoughtfully…
Due to scant evidence, the police investigation in the village turned up nothing, and with the scant manpower around the New Year…
the matter was left unresolved…
