586 Please Take Me With You
After squatting for a while, Qiao Yu fainted in the dark alley out of exhaustion. Even a burly man could not withstand such physical exhaustion.
By the time she woke up, it was already dark. She did not know how much time had passed, but the contents of her bag was scattered around her. It was obvious that someone had searched through her things. The money that Shen Ge had given her was all in her undergarments. Unless the thief took off all her clothes, no one would be able to find this money.
“I’m so hungry…” Qiao Yu looked at her flat stomach and muttered to herself.
As soon as she walked out, she saw Xia Zhe on his way to the train station. Qiao Yu quickly picked up her bag and ran over.
“Hey! Wait!” Qiao Yu shouted weakly.
Xia Zhe looked around in puzzlement. He seemed to have seen her somewhere before, but he could not quite remember.
“Are you calling me?” Xia Zhe asked curiously.
“Yes, don’t you remember me?” Qiao Yu said sadly.
She thought that Xia Zhe would remember her. Although she had been quarreling with Qiao Mei at that time, Xia Zhe was right there. He should have an impression of her!
“Do we know each other? I don’t remember,” Xia Zhe said.
“It’s fine. I’m Qiao Mei’s aunt. My name is Qiao Yu.” Qiao Yu smiled weakly.
She did not even have the strength to smile now, but she still had to show her gentle side in front of Xia Zhe. It would be even better if Xia Zhe took pity on her and developed a good impression of her!
It may be a good thing that he did not remember her. After all, there was nothing good to remember about that occasion when they met.
“Oh, you’re Qiao Zhuang’s daughter,” Xia Zhe said calmly.
At the mention of Qiao Zhuang, Qiao Yu’s expression instantly turned unhappy.
“Yes…” Qiao Yu lowered her head and admitted.
“Why are you looking for me?” Xia Zhe asked sternly.
There was still a long time before his train departed. Before he left, Qiao Mei specially asked him to come out early, afraid that he would miss this train. There was only this one train from the county city to the capital every night.
He needed to go to the capital to report his work before going to his own army unit.
“Can you take me with you? If I go home, I’ll get beaten to death by them! Please take me with you.” Qiao Yu suddenly knelt down and begged.
Everyone around and looked at her strangely. Although it was nighttime, there would always be a lot of people gathered at the train station at any hour.
“Get up first. I can’t help you with this matter. You should go home,” Xia Zhe said.
“If you don’t agree, I won’t get up! I can’t go home! If I go home, I’ll definitely be beaten to death by my father! I’ll even have to marry that old man! I beg you to save me!” Qiao Yu cried.
Xia Zhe did not want to talk to her anymore. He reached out to help her up and said, “I’m going to the county city now to get my documents. Follow me there.”
Qiao Yu thought that Xia Zhe had agreed to her request and did not think too much about it. She said happily, “No problem! I’ll go wherever you go!”
Xia Zhe walked in front silently, not caring that Qiao Yu was too weak to keep up with him. Although Qiao Yu felt resentful about that, it was not easy to get Xia Zhe to take her with him so it would probably seem too much of her to ask for anything else now.
It did not take long for them to reach the entrance of the armed forces department. At this hour, everyone was resting and only a few patrolling soldiers were waiting outside for their replacements to turn up.
“Hello, comrade. I’m from the troops in the capital. This is my identification card. I would like to look for Commander Chen Hu. Just tell him that I’m Qiao Mei’s husband and he’ll understand.” Xia Zhe took out his identification card from his pocket and handed it to the guard at the door.
The guard carefully verified Xia Zhe’s identity and went inside to look for Chen Hu. Soon, Chen Hu ran out of the building with a smile on his face.
“You’re here! There’s no such a term as commander between us. Qiao Mei calls me uncle. You can follow her and just call me Uncle Hu!” Chen Hu said generously.
Back when Zhang Chao and Zhang Qin were kidnapped, Chen Hu had helped them a lot. Xia Zhe had seen Chen Hu’s attitude and methods in handling matters and respected him very much.
“Alright, Uncle Hu. I’m here to ask you for a favor,” Xia Zhe said awkwardly.
Chen Hu looked at Xia Zhe happily. As long as it was something related to Qiao Mei’s family, he would do his best to help. For so many years, Qiao Qiang did not take the initiative to contact him and he did not have the chance to help them. Now that he had the chance, he would definitely do his best.
“Tell me quickly! I’ll definitely help you if I can!” Chen Hu said agitatedly.
