Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space-Chapter 1078: Sorry to Startle You

After a short while, the door was gently pushed open.

No lights were turned on inside the room, and only the figure creeping in quietly could be seen, but with a swift motion, Han Jingchen knocked him unconscious.

Using the momentum of his fall, Han dragged him over to the wall.

The next person saw someone had gone in and heard nothing, but boldly followed inside.

This person was rather cunning, entering while crouched instead of standing.

But he didn’t expect that a short distance from the entrance, he would bump right into the folding bed where Xinyan was sleeping, making a sound.

During his momentary distraction, Han Jingchen utilized the corridor’s light to locate him, and stepping forward, knocked him out in one move, dragging him to the wall and piling him onto the first person.

Just then, someone outside whispered, "Brother Zhang, everything ok?"

But no response came, leaving the person outside uncertain if Brother Zhang was afraid of waking people and dared not reply or if something went wrong.

So, nervously, he suggested to those following behind, "Brother Zhang didn’t reply, maybe we should wait?"

The one behind displeased, said, "Wait for what? If they wake up inside, we’ll never get them out."

Then instructed, "Throw this in."

Xinyan, with her acute senses, heard the exchanges outside clearly, as did Han Jingchen behind the door.

Quickly, Xinyan took out the antidote she had made during idle moments from space, and fed one to Gu Wanqing, whispering, "Take it."

Then, in the corridor’s dim light, she silently approached Han Jingchen and gave him one, before retreating back to her brother’s side.

She didn’t dare feed it straight to the child but held him closely, taking the opportunity to send him into space, leaving only blankets as a decoy.

Soon, they saw someone toss something inside, and it began to emit smoke.

Gu Wanqing was worried for her son, fearing that if affected by the knockout gas, it could harm his body, but Xinyan gestured to her not to worry.

She then swiftly opened the window and threw the object out, knowing inhaling it would be harmful despite the antidote, especially since she needed to bring her brother out from space.

Those outside heard the commotion and, fearing complications from delay, all charged inside.

Gu Wanqing had already put her shoes on when Xinyan opened the window, having recovered well from meals earlier prepared with space ingredients.

Those intruders, despite their full preparations, failed miserably, with none succeeding.

Just as they all charged into the room, the lights were switched on, revealing Xinyan holding the child in a corner, prompting a rush towards her, only for Jinxuan to quickly join in.

Before the hand touched the blanket, Xinyan kicked him to He Jinxuan’s feet.

In just a few minutes, those intruders were all subdued.

Both He Jinxuan and Han Jingchen acted with force, disabling their arms and jaws.

Xinyan quickly turned to retrieve her brother from space as Gu Wanqing approached her, "Jinxuan, shut the window, they don’t want them catching cold."

Simultaneously, Han Jingchen swiftly wrapped a blanket around Gu Wanqing, covering even her head, "Sorry for the scare."

Nearby rooms had heard the commotion, but most didn’t dare emerge, listening quietly inside.

Soon, Han Jingchen’s men arrived with the police.

Concerned about any hidden threats, Han didn’t leave the room, instructing them to take the intruders away, deciding to sort things out before giving statements later.

Gu Wanqing clung to her son, her eyes cold.

Once the police left, she told Han Jingchen, "They came for my life, our family, so no need for restraint anymore."

Han Jingchen comprehended his wife’s resolve, though he once thought untouched branches could be spared, now they must act for the family’s benefit.
