Switched Marriage: The Coddled Little Wife-Chapter 472: Up Against Tough Opponents

Lin Chuxia refused, "That won’t be necessary. Let Liu Na sit in the front with you guys, and you also stay up front. The road ahead isn’t easy, everyone should be on alert."

Somehow, Lin Chuxia always had a bad premonition, feeling the upcoming stretch of the road wouldn’t be smooth.

The group didn’t dare to delay. After eating some dry food and taking care of necessities, they were ready to hit the road again.

At this moment, Master Xu pulled out two covers from the driver’s cabin and concealed the license plates.

Nowadays, there were no surveillance cameras or traffic police to check obstructed plates.

Of course, they knew Master Xu did this not to avoid traffic police checks, but to prevent certain people from noticing their license plates and harboring malicious intentions.

In the eyes of those who block roads, vehicles from Rong City were like fat sheep.

For the next stretch, Liu Guoqiang took the lead. A driver with military experience obviously meant reliable skills, but the mountain roads were even more rugged and winding.

After several hours of the winding and bumpy ride, both Lin Chuxia and Wang Tianxue felt uncomfortable in the back.

Luckily, both could endure; they just closed their eyes and didn’t speak.

Seeing the sun tilting westward, Lin Chuxia looked outside and saw mountains stretching continuously.

Without GPS in those times, and only a map in hand, it was unclear where exactly they were or when they would get out of the mountains.

At this moment, the vehicle stopped for a while, perhaps just over a minute, and then resumed moving.

Lin Chuxia knew this probably meant the drivers had switched.

After all, Master Xu was the experienced driver, better for safer nighttime driving.

Just as she thought this, the vehicle suddenly stopped, not slowly decelerating like before, but with a sharp brake.

Lin Chuxia’s heart skipped a beat with her, a bad feeling arising.

Wang Tianxue also quickly opened her eyes.

At the same time, they heard someone outside speaking in barely fluent Mandarin, shouting, "Get out, everyone get out."

Wang Tianxue’s face changed drastically as she looked towards Lin Chuxia.

The two exchanged a glance, neither speaking, listening intently to the noise outside.

They heard Master Xu’s voice. His accent was noticeably different than when he spoke with them, seemingly mimicking the accent of those blocking the road, trying to negotiate with them.

Lin Chuxia gently lifted a corner of the canvas and saw four or five people surrounding the front left side of the truck. Master Xu and the others hadn’t gotten out, merely sticking a wad of money out the window.

The other side didn’t accept the money from Master Xu, pressing about what was in the vehicle. Master Xu kept speaking nicely, dodging their questions.

Lin Chuxia furrowed her brows slightly, realizing they had met real trouble today.

First of all, the attitude of these people didn’t seem like a few dozen yuan would be enough to send them away.

She then moved to the other side, lifting the canvas curtain to peek, and saw another four or five men on the other side.

Including potentially more people in front of the vehicle, that would be over ten men.

It was no coincidence these many people appeared at the same time; Lin Chuxia’s expression darkened, suspecting these people were after the cargo.

Sure enough, while Master Xu was still negotiating, someone from the front became impatient and ran to the back, climbing up to lift the canvas.

Seeing this situation, Hou Xiaobao could no longer stay seated and pushed the door open to get out of the vehicle.

"What are you doing? Trying to rob us in broad daylight? This is robbery, and you’ll be going to jail."

The opponent, seeing Hou Xiaobao’s not-so-tall and lean figure, sneered, "Going to jail? Come on then, try to arrest me. Let me tell you, if you’re smart, unload half the goods in the car and you can leave safely. If not, you won’t be taking anything with you."

"Brother Fei, stop wasting time talking to them. They’re from Rong City, we’ve hit the jackpot today."

Someone had already torn off the cloth covering the license plate, threw it aside excitedly, and began to pull at the tarp.

Hou Xiaobao’s eyes were wide with fury, knowing that Lin Chuxia and Wang Tianxue were sitting at the back of the van, fearing these men might harm them.

At this moment, Hou Xiaobao had completely forgotten the scene when he first met Lin Chuxia.

He strode forward and yanked one of them down.

The man was caught off balance and fell to the ground, instantly escalating the tension between the two sides.

"Alright, you dare to fight back, guys, get him!"

Liu Guoqiang also jumped down from the truck, and without a word, he knocked down someone who rushed at him.

The opponents, seeing his swift moves, signaled each other with their eyes and a few more charged at him.

Around four or five people were also surrounding Hou Xiaobao.

Two against twelve was a losing game no matter how one looked at it. Lin Chuxia abruptly stood up, clung to the side of the van, and prepared to jump down.

Wang Tianxue gasped in shock and held her back, "You can’t go down there, you can’t beat them. Where’s Master Xu? If it won’t work, we’ll offer Master Xu more money to help us."

Master Xu had already made it clear earlier that he was just the driver, and if anything happened on the road, he wouldn’t intervene, even prioritizing his and the truck’s safety when facing danger.

So, up to now, Master Xu was still sitting in the cockpit, even looking for an opportunity to escape.

Of course, escaping was not so easy.

With a crashing sound, Lin Chuxia already heard the sound of the cockpit glass being smashed. Without further explanation, she simply said, "Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing."

After that, she hesitated no longer and jumped down from the truck.

"There’s another woman here..."

Someone shouted, but Lin Chuxia had already charged at them, and the opponent only managed to shout half a sentence before receiving a punch in the face.

"F*ck..."

The man cursed loudly, thinking that since this woman looked quite pretty, he had initially wanted to tease her a bit, but now he had lost all interest in jesting, even brutally wanting her to beg for mercy through tears.

Lin Chuxia, agile and skilled, noticing Hou Xiaobao struggling, quickly dealt with the man before her and rushed over to help.

They were unarmed, while their opponents had clubs in hand. Seeing Hou Xiaobao take a couple of hard hits, Lin Chuxia stomped on the arm of the man she had downed.

The man, thinking this tigress had left him for someone else, had just lowered his guard when his arm was fiercely stamped on.

He screamed in pain and dropped the club.

He started to doubt his life, wondering how such a delicate woman could possess such strength.

The few moves he had exchanged with her felt like little hammers, and he even suspected his arm was broken from that last kick.

Lin Chuxia, not caring what he thought, picked up the club and threw it, shouting, "Houzi, catch this."

Now with a club in hand, Hou Xiaobao was not at as much of a disadvantage as before, but he was still struggling against several assailants.

With Lin Chuxia joining in, it gave him a moment to breathe, but before he could catch his breath, two more men rushed at him.
