Chapter 238: Setting Up An Ambush
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Qiu Tong looked lovingly at the sensible and patient Ye Luan. He was obviously afraid and vulnerable, but he stubbornly chose to face his troubles alone.
Qiu Xingyu opened her arms and blocked the door. Her eyes were filled with tears as she said, “You’re not allowed to leave!”
Qiu Tong grabbed Ye Luan’s wrist and pulled him into her arms. She used a gentle voice to placate Ye Luan. “We will help you solve the danger you face. This is your home, a harbor where you can seek shelter from the outside world.”
Qiu Tong saw that Ye Luan didn’t say anything else. She looked up at Jin Yang. “Those people definitely won’t just hire two or three gangsters.”
“I’m guessing that there will be other thugs lying in ambush around. They’re just not as stupid as that gangster in the basement. We haven’t noticed them…”
Qiu Xingyuan looked at the pitch-black darkness outside and said in an exceptionally calm voice, “Actually, we can set a trap to lure them in.”
Since the other party was anxious to get what Ye Luan had hidden, they could use this to their advantage to control the situation.
Qiu Xingyu carried the laptop over. She sat on the ground and tapped on it. “Mommy! I’ll transfer all the surveillance cameras nearby to this laptop and design an analysis and an automatic alarm system.”
“The moment any suspicious movements or dangerous weapons appear on the screen, the program will alert the police!”
Qiu Xingyu lifted her chin proudly, waiting for Qiu Tong to praise her.
Qiu Xingqiao swiftly moved some sandbags and wooden posts to block the door and window at the bottom of the building. “It’s safe now!”
Qiu Xingyuan held his sketchbook and quietly sketched on the sofa.
After a long time, he handed a complicated-looking map to Qiu Tong. “Uncle Ke Le, please set up roadblocks at the main intersection. Also, set up the electric fence in the garden and the outer wall. This way, no matter how many enemies try to break through, they will be captured by us.”
Qiu Tong blinked in shock. She had not expected the three children to be so clear and decisive in the face of danger.
Their arrangements were even better than her and Jin Yang’s.
Wait a minute! Why were their eyes shining with excitement?
Qiu Tong nodded at Ke Le, indicating for him to follow Qiu Xingyuan’s plan. She lowered her head and pushed Ye Luan’s luggage back to his room.
In the bedroom, Qiu Tong took out the clothes from the luggage and hung them in the closet.
Ye Luan stood beside her like a helpless little animal. He wanted to open his mouth several times but swallowed his words.
Qiu Tong sensed his nervousness and gratitude. She teased him in a relaxed tone, “You’re still a child.”
“Running away from home only with a bunch of thin clothes?”
“Outside, money is what you need the most! Otherwise, where do you plan to stay tonight? Under the bridge beside Qingshui River?”
“It’s very cold there. There will be other tramps coming to snatch your territory. Your arms and legs are so weak. How can you win?”
Ye Luan listened in confusion, “Auntie Qiu, have you… lived there before?”
Qiu Tong paused as she tidied her bed. She recalled her experience in the post-apocalyptic era…
She competed with zombies for food every day. Qiu Tong shook her head and smiled. “Of course not. I saw it on television.”
“Do you need me to sleep with you? Let me tell you a story, okay? Little Yu especially likes to hear me tell fairy tales.”
Qiu Tong found two children’s books and gestured for Ye Luan to come over.
It was rare for Ye Luan to behave so shyly. He laid beside Qiu Tong in his pajamas.
The door handle turned and the three children staggered in at the same time. Qiu Xingqiao was still hunched over in an eavesdropping position. Qiu Xingyuan stood awkwardly at the door tidying the hem of his light blue pajamas. Little Yu rushed to Qiu Tong’s side and pleaded coquettishly, “Mommy! Little Yu wants to hear it too…”
“Eldest Brother and Second Brother both want you to accompany them also. You can’t be biased towards Brother Ye Luan!”
Qiu Tong burst out laughing. She saw Ye Luan taking the initiative to give up his seat beside her and patted the edge of the bed helplessly. “Alright.”
Qiu Tong’s voice was very gentle. Slowly, the children closed their eyes and fell asleep.
Jin Yang quietly walked to the door. Qiu Tong put her index finger to her lips and the two of them carried the children back to their own rooms.
Ke Le and Shao An were well-coordinated. The security arrangements outside the courtyard were already prepared.
Qiu Tong stood at the entrance and looked at the red rising sun. “I’ve checked the other party’s details, but they didn’t leave any traces.”
She looked up at Jin Yang, hinting at him.
Only high-ranking officials and special organizations could do such a thing.
Either way, it meant that Ye Luan had a deep secret! And that he was in an extremely dangerous situation…
Jin Yang hugged Qiu Tong’s shoulder and said firmly, “Don’t worry, I’m here.”
In a room in the S City hotel, a man wearing a golden mask was wearing a black robe. He pressed the voice changer device on his neck and dialed a few numbers.. The moment the call went through, he said, “The operation will begin at sunset.”
