At this time, Su Ruoqing had already finished most of her journey and would soon arrive at the border.

“I wonder how Yuhe is now. There are so many officers and soldiers in the army, so they definitely did their best to protect him. I guess nothing serious happened to him…”

Along the way, Su Ruoqing kept comforting herself like this. Whenever she felt tired and afraid, she would talk to herself to gain courage and comfort.

Su Zhiyou didn’t get the news that she was going to the border, and she didn’t encounter any danger on the way. She had thought she would arrive at the border soon, but something unpredicted happened to her…

“Sir, I want to rent a car to take me to the border between our province and Province S.” From the beginning of her journey, Su Ruoqing had always been travelling with rented cars.

The shop owner shook his head and said, “There’s a war going on at the border. You’d better not go there alone.”

“It’s okay. I have an emergency and I have to go.”

Looking at Su Ruoqing’s resolute expression, the man had to tell her the truth awkwardly. “Armies of two provinces are now fighting at the border. You might be bold enough, but I don’t want to risk my car…”

Su Ruoqing smiled, for she could understand his concern. Then she took out twice as much money as the normal car rental cost.

“Sir, I really have something very urgent. Please take the money as a deposit. I’ll give you more after we arrive there. Please help me.”

Looking at the money in Su Ruoqing’s hand, the man was a little swayed by her. Although this girl looked young, she was very generous.

He cleared his throat and said, “Truth be told, I feel pity for you since you are outside alone.” As he spoke, he took the money from Su Ruoqing.

“But it’s really dangerous at the border. I just run a small business. Even if you give me more money, I dare not take this risk…” Although the man said this, he still wanted to get the handsome profit offered by Su Ruoqing, so he continued, “How about this? I’ll let someone send you near to the border. After getting off the car, you just need to take a few more steps to reach your destination.”

He felt a bit guilty when saying this. After all, he had received so much money from her.

However, Su Ruoqing agreed to his suggestion. “OK. I can understand. Since I have given you the deposit, I need to find a place to rest now. Tomorrow, I’ll come here early in the morning and set out.” After saying that, she hurriedly left for her accommodation, and she forgot to take the hat placed on the counter.

Seeing her receding figure, the man put on a delighted look, and he couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

“Sir, what makes you so happy?” Hearing the question, the shop owner turned his head and found it was the new driver.

This man’s name was Stone, and he had been a hooligan before. He was now in his thirties, but he was still jobless. Since Stone was his distant relative, the shop owner had to bring him here and offer him a job.

Looking at his casual manner, he suddenly came up with an idea that Stone could be the most suitable person to send that girl to the border.

“Come here. I have a task for you.”

Seeing the boss beckoning at him, Stone hurriedly ran over. “Boss, I can do anything. Just tell me what you need me to do.”

“It’s not that difficult. There’s a job for you tomorrow. You just need to send a girl near to the border. I will pay you a lot of money when you come back.”

Stone expressed great gratitude, but after the shop owner left, he showed a contemptuous look.

“Huh! That old bastard! I had thought he would give me a good job, but he asked me to send a girl to the border. There’s a war going on there, and if I don’t pay extra attention, I may even lose my life.”

He was ready to go home to sleep. As for tomorrow’s job, he was not going to take it. Just as he was about to leave, he heard a crisp and beautiful voice.

“Is the shop owner here?”

Stone looked back and saw it was a pretty and fair girl. He immediately smiled and came to her.

“I’m the shop owner. Can I help you?”

Su Ruoqing looked at him suspiciously. “I just came to rent a car. The boss doesn’t look like you.”

“That’s right!” Stone rubbed his hands and thought that the beautiful girl in front of him might be the customer mentioned by the shop owner just now.

“Tomorrow you’re going to the border, right? I’m the driver who will send you there.”

His answer removed most of her doubts, and she said, “I see. I left my hat here just now, so I came to take it back.”

Stone glanced at the counter, and he saw there was a lady’s hat. He quickly took it over and handed it to Su Ruoqing. “Miss, is this hat yours?”

“Yes, it is. Thank you.” Su Ruoqing looked at the man in front of her, and she felt a little disgusted when seeing his flattering smile. After taking the hat, she hurriedly left.

Recalling the sweet voice and charming figure of Su Ruoqing, Stone put on an evil smile.

After a night of rest, Su Ruoqing was ready to leave. Thinking about the driver’s obscene look yesterday, she hid a pistol in her pocket.

Inside the suburban villa.

Because of the arrival of reinforcements and weapons, the soldiers’ morale had been improved a lot, and everyone was confident to win the next battle.

Leng Yuhe studied the military map for a long time, and he finally came up with a more perfect tactic. He immediately asked someone to invite Bai Chongxiu to his camp, so that they could work out the battle plan together.

After getting the news, Bai Chongxiu immediately stood up from his chair. “Peiya, don’t go anywhere. It’s dangerous outside. I’m going to discuss the next battle plan with General Leng.”

“Then I’ll go with you.”

“Why do you want to go with me? You’d better not get involved in cruel things like wars.” Bai Chongxiu refused without even thinking about it.

Bai Peiya smiled and stood up. “I’m not interested in the war. Instead, I am curious about General Leng.”

“How did you know him?”

“I am not familiar with him. Last time, my father called him to our house, and I saw him from afar. I heard this person is very powerful. Now since I have the opportunity, I want to get to know him.”

Bai Peiya’s words made sense, but Bai Chongxiu was worried. “Peiya, is it possible that you…” He didn’t finish his words, but he knew that Peiya might take a fancy to the young and capable General.

“Bro, what are you thinking about? I have no feelings towards him. I want to know about him out of sheer curiosity. Besides, I want to help you.”

Hearing her sincere words, Bai Chongxiu could only believe her for the time being. Then he took her out.

“General, have you come up with any counterattack plan?” Bai Chongxiu knew that Leng Yuhe must have a way, so he pushed open the door and quickly asked.

Leng Yuhe looked up at him and didn’t notice Bai Peiya.

“Yes. Look at this military map.”

Leng Yuhe called Bai Chongxiu over and continued to explain his plan, pointing at the map. “Our current position stands back from the border now. Although we are in a secluded place, Shen Nan’s subordinates will find us one day. It’s better if we let him know the position.”

Bai Chongxiu was a little puzzled, but he didn’t raise any questions, for he didn’t want to acknowledge his own shortcomings in front of Leng Yuhe.

“This time, many reinforcements came with a large number of weapons. We can use this advantage to divide our soldiers into two groups and send them to two battlefields. One battlefield is here and the other is at the border.”

Bai Peiya couldn’t help but ask, “There is no camp at the border now. Even if our soldiers go there, they can’t be stationed. Why don’t we just wait here and store up our strength?”

Without answering her question, Leng Yuhe continued to explain his plan, “We can spread the news and let Shen Nan know that we are here. Since he is smart, he must know that our reinforcements have arrived, and he will surely send most of his troops to chase us.”

Leng Yuhe tapped his finger on the border of the military map. “After we defeat them, they will definitely retain some strength and run back to Province S. At that moment, we will send our best troop there to ambush them…”

Although he didn’t finish his words, Bai Chongxiu had understood.

“It is indeed a good way, for we can surround the enemies and then defeat them.” Bai Chongxiu admired Leng Yuhe’s ability of leading the army.

“But how can you be sure that we can defeat the enemies there? What if we fail after dispersing our forces?” Bai Peiya asked directly.

Only then did Leng Yuhe take a look at her. “First of all, our current strength and weapons are enough for us to cope with the following battles. Secondly…”

Standing up from his seat, Leng Yuhe smiled slightly. He then said in an arrogant tone, “Secondly, the army I led has never been defeated.”

Looking at the man in front of her, Bai Peiya felt he was so outstanding. General Leng was far more excellent than any other man she had known, and she couldn’t help respecting and admiring him.

The two continued to discuss the more detailed plan, analyzed the merits and demerits of each step as clearly as possible before informing the whole army of their plan.

“Brother, I think General Leng is really an excellent man.”

Bai Chongxiu didn’t agree with her. “Leng Yuhe is very complicated. Even if I’ve been in contact with him for so long, I can’t understand him… Alright, I have to go to work. You can go around the barracks now.”

He then turned around. Before leaving, he said, “By the way, if you go out, you must bring someone to protect you. Do keep this in mind.”

Looking up at the clear sky, Bai Peiya was in a good mood, so she called a few of her followers to take a walk in the woods.

On the other side, Su Ruoqing had already set off with Stone, and the latter kept looking for a chance to talk to her. What’s worse, he looked at her from time to time with an obscene look.

Su Ruoqing could feel that he had no good intentions, so she just gave perfunctory answers to his questions.

“Miss, you are just a young single girl. Why do you want to go to such a remote place on your own?”

“I’m not single. I’m going to the border to find my fiance. He’s fighting on the front,” Su Ruoqing said, hoping that he would give up on her and stop harassing her. However, out of her expectation, the man was not affected by her words at all.

“It’s just a fiance. As long as you’re not married, you’re still single.”

Su Ruoqing didn’t answer. The farther the car went, the closer they were to the border, but the surrounding scenery became more and more desolate.

“Stop right here. Yesterday, I’ve promised your boss that I’ll pay you the rest of the money if you send me here.”

Hearing this, Stone stopped the car and Su Ruoqing took out the money in her pocket to give it to him.

Looking at the large amount of money the girl held and her fair and beautiful face, Stone suddenly came up with a bad idea. He opened the car’s back door and wanted to press Su Ruoqing down.

Fortunately, Su Ruoqing had been on guard against him and she successfully recoiled from his touch.

“It’s just the two of us in this wilderness. Do you think you can escape from me?” The man smiled sinisterly and continued looking for an opportunity to approach her. Su Ruoqing was so scared that she opened the car door and escaped.

Stone kept chasing after her, and the two of them ran a long way. But Su Ruoqing was a weak woman after all. Her physical strength was gradually losing and her pace slowed down.

Stone seized the opportunity and took a few strides to her. “You are still running, aren’t you? I wonder how far you can run!”

As he spoke, he grabbed Su Ruoqing’s arm and pushed her down to the ground.
