Transmigrating to the 80s to Become Stepmom to Five Bigwigs

Chapter 167: You Adulterous Pair

Although Mu Jingzhe and Shao Nan’s sudden switch to a sleeper caught the pickpockets off guard, they didn’t give up.

In the dead of the night, when the entire car had quietened down, two people arrived at the sleeper carriage one after another. Along the way, while no one was looking, they skillfully stole two bags.

They walked all the way to Mu Jingzhe’s sleeper carriage and looked at the big bag placed under the bed. Then, the guy clad in a leather coat who walked ahead picked it up without saying a word.

In the end, he didn’t manage to lift it. His friend behind him even let out a muffled groan. When Leather Coat turned around, his friend was already fighting with someone.

It was Shao Qihai, who had made a move. Although they were swift and good at disguising themselves, they couldn’t escape Shao Qihai’s eyes.

Since there were really clueless people who wanted to attack Mu Jingzhe and Shao Nan, Shao Qihai naturally couldn’t stand by and watch.

However, he hadn’t expected that he would encounter a tough nut this time. Shao Qihai didn’t manage to take him down with one move.

Leather Coat made a sound and, ignoring everything, tried to pick up the bundle and run. However, this pull directly pulled Mu Jingzhe up.

Before falling asleep, Mu Jingzhe had tied the bag to her hand with a rope. Using the same method as before, although it was a little exaggerated, she’d even tied Shao Nan’s hands and her hands together to prevent any accidents.

Leather Coat’s not-so-stealthy actions had woken Mu Jingzhe up. Although she had just woken up, when she saw Leather Coat holding her bag, her reaction was fast. Before her eyes even fully opened, her fist moved first.

“Ah…” Her fist landed heavily on the left side of Leather Coat’s face. Leather Coat was in intense pain and felt something fly out of his mouth.

He hadn’t expected that the frail and refined-looking Mu Jingzhe, who was so gentle to her son, would deliver such a punch.

Before he could see what had flown out, another fist came over and hit his right cheek. Leather Coat felt something fly out of his mouth once more.

The pain slowed down Leather Coat’s reaction. It hadn’t occurred to him what had flown out, but he did suddenly feel like his mouth was a little empty.

Before he could recover, another fist came, this time striking his stomach. As the fist landed on him, Leather Coat saw Mu Jingzhe’s face grow farther and farther away. Then, he realized that he had been sent flying away.

Flying away? Before Leather Coat could react, he slammed against the wall and fell to the ground.

At that moment, his young friend was also being pressed down by Shao Qihai and was unable to move. He was right opposite him.

There was something else in the middle of their faces. It was blood and it looked a little familiar and a little unfamiliar at the same time.

Leather Coat looked at it and finally saw that it looked like a tooth.

Leather Coat was stunned. His slow brain finally reacted, and he slowly moved his tongue. Then, he felt an empty sensation.

The left side was empty, as was the right one. It took Leather Coat a moment to realize that he had lost several teeth.

Recalling that something had flown out when he had been hit, at long last, he realized what it was. It was his teeth.

“Ah!” Leather Coat let out a belated cry of agony.

The other perpetrator, who was pinned to the ground by Shao Qihai, watched all of this with his own eyes. He looked at his companion and suddenly felt that although he was in pain, he was also quite lucky. After all, the person hitting him had used conventional methods, whereas that woman totally didn’t care about her virtue.

Who would beat someone up like that? That was too much of a bully.

Mu Jingzhe didn’t know what the pickpocket was thinking at all. She felt that there was nothing wrong with what she was doing. She had been paying attention since earlier. Knowing that she was strong, in order to prevent any accidents from killing someone, she always avoided hitting important parts of someone’s body, such as the nose, the eyes, and the temples.

As for the fact that she had knocked out a few teeth, it hadn’t been done on purpose. She was really strong after all. It couldn’t be helped.

After sending that fellow flying, Mu Jingzhe was completely awake, and Shao Nan had also woken up during the commotion.

“Mommy, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing. Mom beat up a thief. It’s fine now.”

Mu Jingzhe sat up and scooped Shao Nan up. She carefully went over to take a look and saw the other pickpocket and Shao Qihai, who was pressing him down.

Shao Qihai was wearing a hat with the brim pressed very low. He also had a beard. Although it wasn’t a full beard, it covered most of his facial features.

Mu Jingzhe didn’t recognize Shao Qihai. As far as she was concerned, Shao Qihai was dead. She would never have guessed that it was him.

Seeing that he was helping her catch the thief, Mu Jingzhe quickly thanked him. “Thank you, thank you so much.”

When Shao Qihai heard her words, he came back to his senses and shook his head without saying anything. Upon looking at the person who was still lying on the ground beside him, he had to admit that, even without his help, Mu Jingzhe would probably have been able to handle this.

However, that was only because these two people weren’t carrying any weapons to begin with. Otherwise, they would still have been in danger.

For example, the fellow he was pressing down had a blade between his fingers, as well as a folding fruit knife hidden in his bag. The blade had been particularly sharpened, allowing him to easily slice a bag open while stealing things regardless of the material it was made of. If it was used as a weapon, one could imagine how dangerous it would be.

Therefore, if one encountered a pickpocket, the best thing to do wouldn’t be to take on the pickpocket by oneself but to call the professionals. Safety was more important.

However, Mu Jingzhe didn’t seem to understand this concept. She’d attacked without hesitation at a very fast speed.

Although she was very strong, Shao Qihai was still worried about her safety. As he couldn’t help but say a few words, he saw Shao Nan, who was in Mu Jingzhe’s arms, staring at him. His gaze was indescribable, and Shao Qihai instantly froze.

Could he have been recognized?

He reflexively lowered his head and didn’t say another word. At that moment, the train attendant and a police officer arrived.

When Leather Coat recovered, he looked at the train attendant and complained. “You should arrest her and interrogate her. She must be a boxer. How can a boxer like her do that to a normal person? My teeth… Boohoo…”

Due to the fact that he was missing some teeth, his words were a little slurred. In combination with his wretched appearance, he somehow appeared a little comical.

The officers had to hold themselves back. “Don’t move!” They maintained their dignity and brought him down.

The pickpocket beside him also complained about Shao Qihai from behind. “You have to investigate the two of them properly. This man isn’t easy to deal with either. Is he an undercover police officer? You adulterous pair, you gang up to bully ordinary people like us…”

Shao Qihai: “…”

Mu Jingzhe: “…”

Adulterous pair? Mu Jingzhe glanced at Shao Qihai, but the latter merely lowered his head and didn’t look at her.

“Don’t spout nonsense.” After the train attendant finished speaking, he accidentally kicked one of the teeth on the ground. Instantly, his gaze on Mu Jingzhe became a little subtle.

“I’m not spouting nonsense. They deliberately tricked us into coming here to steal things and then beat us up.”

Mu Jingzhe felt wronged. “I don’t know him.”

“Who the heck are you lying to? If you don’t know him, why would he guard this place? I just started to make a move, and he was already here to hit people. You guys are big bullies!”

Shao Qihai: “…”

‘Tsk, why is this person so talkative?’

Mu Jinghe: “…”

She glanced at Shao Qihai in suspicion. Had this person been guarding her?
