Chapter 250: The Missing Child

Han Ruochen’s heart could not help but turn cold when she saw the woman still eyeing her and Han Beijiang. Originally, she did not want to make a move just yet, but now, looking at the eagerness in the eyes of the old woman, Han Ruochen was certain that this old woman was not going to give up easily. The cogs of her mind started to roll as she started to wonder what she needed to do to deal with this trouble.

The old woman had no idea that Han Ruochen was already on guard against her. At that moment, her mind was only filled with one thought, and that was money. As long as she could sell Han Ruochen and her brother along with the baby in her arms, the old woman was certain that she would be able to live a good life for many years.

Thus, after settling the baby in the berth, she went to look for the man who came with her.

"What are you doing here?" When the man saw the old woman, he could not help but frown. Did he not tell her that the two of them were supposed to keep a low profile? Why did she come looking for him?

He looked at the old woman and then turned to look around the two of them. Once he was certain that no one was paying special attention to them, he caught the woman by her arm and then dragged her to one side. "How many times did I tell you before? Don’t come looking for me if there is no emergency. The child we picked this time has a special identity. We need to be careful."

They picked this good-looking child from the military quad. It was a risk that they had taken after much consideration. After all, this child was not only good-looking but also sensible and smart. If they sold him off, this boy would certainly fetch a good price.

However, the greater the price, the greater the risk.

Because of this, the man had been very careful and even applied make-up on the child’s face as he was worried that someone would recognise him. He even dispersed the team, as he did not want the people in the carriage of the train to suspect them. Thus, he couldn’t help but be upset when he saw the old woman approaching him.

"Don’t be angry." Though the old woman was quite sly, she was still fearful in front of the man. She suppressed her anger at being spoken to so rudely and said to the man, "I brought you some good news." She glanced around them and then stated in a low voice, "I found two new lambs."

The man frowned when he heard the words of the old woman. However, his curiosity had been piqued when he heard the old woman say that she had found two new prey. He asked, "Where?"

"In my carriage," replied the woman eagerly. "There are two good-looking children. One of them is a really pretty woman. If we sell her off to a far-off village, then we can easily make a thousand yuan. As for the boy, he is really good-looking; he looks like a blessed child. Those rich women with no children would be willing to pay a high price for him."

As soon as she finished speaking, the man’s eyes lit up. He was quite excited just hearing her description and asked hurriedly, "So you have already made a move on them?"

If he could get his hands on something good, then it would be really delightful. After all, who would refuse the god of wealth?

"Of course not." The old woman shook her head regretfully. "They are followed by an adult." As soon as she finished speaking, the man glared at her. "If they are with an adult, why are you coming here to tell me about it? What is the point?"

"The point? Heh. That man is alone; even if he is their father, he cannot possibly fight all of us." The old woman was unwilling to give up because she knew that the woman was truly good-looking. At the thought of how she could get her hands on a thousand or two thousand yuan in exchange for her, it would be enough for her. She could finally stop living like this and have a decent life.

The man did not agree at once. He still had some reservations; even if the man was alone, if he was pushed into a corner, there was a very good chance that he might turn around and fight against them. If that happened, then they would attract the attention of the people in the train, which would defeat their purpose. What if someone called the police?

After thinking about it, he still refused. "No, this won’t do. We have already taken a risk; if we dare to take another risk, there is a good chance that we will be caught. Just stay put and don’t make a fuss for the time being."

The man did not want to take any risk.

The old woman gnashed her teeth when she heard the man’s words. She said to him, "Brother Scar, are you really going to ignore this opportunity? Why don’t you take a look at the woman first? Maybe you will change your mind."

The old woman was greedy for quick gains and did not want to let go of Han Ruochen. That woman truly had earth-shattering beauty. How could she just ignore this chance and let it slip from her fingers?

Brother Scar hesitated, but he still nodded and followed the woman to the carriage. At that time, the train had started to run again, and Han Yichen returned with three lunchboxes comprising rice and chicken stew. Though the taste was not good, they left in a hurry and could only make do with it.

However, just as Han Ruochen was about to take a bite of her meal, she sensed someone looking at her and raised her head.
