Kissed and Seduced By the Most Rough Man in the Village-Chapter 359: Only by Not Carrying Others’ Secrets Can One Survive
"You must have been really scared after encountering something like this. Just sit tight and take your time to recover," Aunt Guo said, looking at Su Xiaoxiao with concern. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
Even though things kept happening one after another, she didn’t resent the danger brought by the Su family. In her view, the Su family faced danger because Su Hongchen was a soldier. Soldiers might face malicious retaliation because they were protecting the country. It was just unfortunate for her future daughter-in-law, a delicate girl, to constantly confront such dangers.
Feeling Aunt Guo’s gaze, Su Xiaoxiao felt embarrassed and could only sit obediently.
At that moment, Gui Zhenzhen finally regained consciousness. She stared wide-eyed in terror at Su Xiaoxiao. "Mmm! Mmm..."
Gui Zhenzhen tried to say something, but the cloth stuffed in her mouth prevented her from doing so. Su Xiaoxiao remained expressionless, watching her as she made muffled sounds for a while.
Aunt Guo frowned and eventually asked Su Xiaoxiao, "Do you want to hear what she has to say?"
"No need. She just wants to argue and thinks we’re fools," Su Xiaoxiao replied confidently.
One could tell whether a person intended to be honest or was clinging to false hope just by looking into their eyes.
As soon as she said this, Gui Zhenzhen’s outcry came to an abrupt halt. She looked at Su Xiaoxiao with fear and reluctance, her expression turning into a plea.
"You don’t need to beg me. I’m protecting your life right now. Do you think that man lying next to you is here for no reason? Do you know what ’silencing’ means?" Su Xiaoxiao pointed her chin toward the unconscious man.
Her expression was calm, completely unlike that of an ordinary high school girl.
Gui Zhenzhen suddenly realized how foolish she had been. She thought Su Xiaoxiao was just like her—ordinary and somewhat naive due to being spoiled at home—so when someone approached her with an offer of a two-story building and a job at the supply and marketing cooperative, she accepted it easily.
Now, what she had thought would be an easy path had pushed her into an endless abyss.
Thinking about not only getting divorced but also potentially facing prison time, or at the very least being sent to a farm for re-education, made her eyes well up with tears. Please, let me go!
Gui Zhenzhen looked at Su Xiaoxiao, her eyes filled with desperation.
Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but roll her eyes. "Are you stupid? If you confess everything to the police, the information you have won’t be a secret anymore. Even if you end up in prison or at the farm, you’ll be safe. These spies won’t waste their hard-to-hide pawns on you. But if you keep holding onto your secret, you’re a ticking time bomb for them, and they won’t let you off the hook."
Gui Zhenzhen’s tears hung in her eyes, filled with confusion and disbelief as she stared at Su Xiaoxiao.
"My sister is really smart," Su Hongchen’s voice rang out from the doorway.
Su Xiaoxiao turned to see her brother pushing the door open, with Jiang Yexun and He Xingzhi following behind.
Even though he already knew his girlfriend wasn’t hurt, Jiang Yexun still looked tense as he scanned Su Xiaoxiao from head to toe. If it weren’t for his brother-in-law standing there, he would have wanted to pull her into his arms to comfort her.
"I’m fine; they didn’t scare me," Su Xiaoxiao reassured him with a smile.
"Good. Next time you go out, make sure someone accompanies you, okay?" Jiang Yexun admonished, still worried.
Su Xiaoxiao nodded and then took out the weapon she had confiscated from the man and handed it to Su Hongchen.
In the country, guns like these were registered, and their ballistic signatures were unique. So, these spies would only choose to smuggle weapons in from abroad to avoid exposing their pawns.
