Itâs someone from the other side coming to support.
Liu Na, who sat in the vehicle, was almost crying anxiously; she kept imploring Master Xu whether they could go down and help the three people being assaulted below.
Just now, the glass of the driverâs cab was shattered, leaving Master Xu with two shallow cuts on his body.
Hearing Liu Naâs tearful pleading, he responded, "Are they after the goods or the people? The attackers just want the goods; they wonât really harm anyone. If I go down, we might really lose this entire load of goods."
These road robbers were after money, otherwise, they wouldnât have appeared wielding only clubs.
If Master Xu found an opportunity to drive the truck away, the goods might remain; but once he stepped out, he would definitely not be a match for those attackers.
Crucially, with no one left in the truck, both the vehicle and goods could be stolen by the attackers at any moment.
Liu Na was a young girl who had never encountered such situations before, unlike Master Xu who had seen too much on his long-haul trips.
Hearing Master Xu say this, Liu Na also lost her own ideas.
Seeing those people pushing Mr. Lin to the side of the vehicle and several men assaulting a woman, Liu Na couldnât sit still any longer and pushed the door open to get out.
Master Xu frowned slightly, "Going down there will only add to the chaos..."
But Liu Na didnât care about that; she saw a man sneaking behind Mr. Lin, viciously raising a club to strike.
"Mr. Lin..."
Liu Na shouted loudly, rushing forward heedlessly.
Lin Chuxia felt the danger behind her but before she could turn around, a soft body threw itself over her, followed by a scream.
"Nana!"
She saw Liu Naâs pale, pain-stricken face, and kicked the attacker away.
Just when everyone was struggling severely and Lin Chuxia was considering whether to give up part of the goods, the sound of a motorcycle approached from the distance.
The motorcycle quickly stopped in front of the truck.
Lin Chuxia caught a glimpse from the corner of her eye of the motorcycle rider dismounting and heading straight for the big truck.
Her heart skipped a beat.
Given the remote and rugged terrain, it couldnât possibly be reinforcements for them.
However, the next second, she saw the person directly taking on the robbers wielding clubs, and the individualâs movements were swift, dealing with an attacker within minutes.
The situation quickly turned around; seeing the formidable newcomer, some robbers even started running away with their clubs.
Those who had been knocked down, some got up and scurried away using both hands and feet.
The final few found it not so easy to escape.
Lin Chuxia and Hou Xiaobao subdued one person each, Liu Guoqiang and the motorcycle rider together subdued three.
At that moment, Wang Tianxue, holding a rope, jumped down from the truck and handed the rope to Liu Guoqiang.
Liu Guoqiang skillfully tied up each person and then formally saluted the motorcycle rider.
The rider returned the salute with a standard military salute.
Lin Chuxia then noticed, although the person wasnât in military uniform, their aura was undeniably that of someone with a military background.
"Comrade, thank you so much for today. Without you, we really wouldnât have known what to do."
Lin Chuxia hurriedly expressed her gratitude to the individual.
"No worries, this is what we should do," the person glanced at the five tied-up individuals, "What do you plan to do with these people?"
This put Lin Chuxia in a difficult position.
They were strangers in this area and didnât even know where the nearest police station was.
Besides, they had a load of goods and were in a hurry to hit the road.
The other party noticed Lin Chuxiaâs predicament and promptly said, "Since itâs inconvenient for you, let me handle it. Iâm heading to the nearby police station for some work anyway."
Lin Chuxia glanced at Liu Guoqiang who nodded at her in agreement.
"That would be great. Weâll leave these people in your and the police stationâs care. We really do need to hurry. These people were blocking the road and committing robberies, we hope the government will educate them properly."
"Of course, our society will never tolerate such wrongdoing."
Lin Chuxia left the rest to Liu Guoqiang to handle with that person and went to check on the others.
Liu Na was protecting her and she wasnât lightly affected; now Wang Tianxue was supporting her, and she was grimacing in pain.
Lin Chuxia lifted her shirt collar slightly to check inside, there was a large red area, which looked like it was about to turn purple soon.
"How is it, can you move your arms and back? Did it hurt your bones?"
Liu Na, in pain, still reassured Lin Chuxia, "Itâs nothing, Mr. Lin, I can keep going."
Saying this, she even lifted her arm slightly, seeming to show that the bones werenât hurt.
Lin Chuxia quietly breathed a sigh of relief, "Why are you so silly, donât you know that could have killed you?"
However, Liu Na just chuckled, "Mr. Lin, you have shown me a great kindness, a life-saving grace. My life is yours, even if it costs me my life, I wouldnât let anything happen to you."
In that moment, Liu Na had rushed out without thinking, but she didnât regret it.
She always remembered the kindness Lin Chuxia had shown her, not just regarding Feng Zhong, but also Lin Chuxiaâs guidance.
After such an incident, she even felt she was less worthy than others, yet Lin Chuxia, who knew the truth, never looked down on her, always encouraging her to be strong and self-respecting, and now taking her out to experience the world.
She always remembered the words Lin Chuxia said to her, be the strongest version of yourself, only by establishing yourself can you prevent others from disrespecting you.
It was because of such a goal that she was able to step out from the shadow of that relationship, feeling that she was still a person.
Such a boss, of course, warranted her protection with her life.
"Silly girl, none of us will have any troubles, our good days are still ahead."
Lin Chuxia then looked towards Wang Tianxue, "Sister Tianxue, are you alright?"
Although Wang Tianxue hadnât gotten out of the vehicle, Lin Chuxia knew that after she had, Wang Tianxue had stubbornly protected the canvas, blocking those people several times when they tried to get on the vehicle.
"Iâm fine, are you and Houzi okay?"
Lin Chuxia really hadnât been hit, but Houzi had taken several blows.
But Houzi didnât take it seriously, grinning and stretching his limbs, "Iâm fine too, havenât fought in a long time, itâs good to loosen up the bones."
Lin Chuxia glanced at him disapprovingly, "If you want to loosen your bones, I can take care of that later."
Houziâs face changed instantly, "No need, Mr. Lin, I was just joking."
Master Xu had already cleaned up the broken glass, he got a couple of cuts on his arms and had treated them simply.
Liu Guoqiang had already finished negotiating with the comrade, "Mr. Lin, we can set off now. That comrade said if we go ten li forward, thereâs a town and we are almost out of the mountainous area."
"Great, letâs set off then. Liu Na, you still sit in the back with me, I have medicine in my bag to apply to you."
"Okay," Liu Na walked to the rear of the vehicle, just about to lift her hand to climb in, but sucked in a breath of cold air from pain.
Lin Chuxia stepped forward, "Iâll carry you up."
Before she could act, another figure had already scooped Liu Na up.
