Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 104

Chapter 104: Chapter 104: Quite a Broad Business

Lin Chuxia returned to the hostel and took out the things she had bought.

No woman dislikes jewelry, Lin Chuxia liked Chinese-style dresses and also had some knowledge about accessories.

The jade bracelet had a rich hue; such quality would cost at least a six-figure amount in the future, and while the red jade bracelet was somewhat inferior, it would still start at a five-figure price.

She couldn’t make out the inscription on the thumb ring, the traditional characters inside were too small to read, and it looked quaint and mysterious.

Often, it’s hard to estimate the value of such items.

She hadn’t expected to gain so much from this trip; truly, it was a huge profit.

She placed the items directly into her space, saw that it was getting late, Lin Chuxia had a full meal, took a hot shower, and then comfortably went to bed.

She had a dreamless night; the next day after washing up and having breakfast, she checked out and headed for the train station.

The train was delayed yesterday, hence tickets had to be re-purchased today.

Regrettably, she wasn’t able to buy a sleeper ticket.

As Lin Chuxia turned around with her ticket, she saw a familiar figure not far away; by the time she tried to get a clearer look, everything was a blur of moving figures. Where was the familiar figure now?

She thought her eyes were playing tricks on her and didn’t take it to heart.

She took the first train for over eight hours, and in the afternoon switched to the second train.

This train was evidently more crowded than the last, almost packed to the brim; pickpockets thrived in such situations. freeweɓnovel.cøm

Back at the hostel, Lin Chuxia had already put everything into her space, and she only carried an empty suitcase in her hand. Her bag was light, containing only a bottle filled with spiritual spring water, a few pork buns, and tea eggs.

Even if she encountered thieves, there wasn’t much on her to steal.

Just as she was thinking this, a beam of light flashed; a bald man with luggage squeezed past, followed a few meters behind by a skinny man.

Lin Chuxia narrowed her eyes; it seemed she hadn’t been mistaken at the train station while buying her ticket.

At that moment, cries of alarm sounded not far away, "My wallet is gone, a thief has stolen my wallet, someone catch the thief! That’s the money for my child’s medical fees, someone heartless... this is putting our lives in danger..."

A woman was shouting and looking around in tears; amidst her crying and accusations, an unprepossessing man quickly ducked his head and hurried through the crowd.

Even though they suspected he might be a thief, the passengers in the car seemed eager to avoid him, fearing getting involved, and even deliberately cleared a path for him.

Lin Chuxia frowned slightly, just as she was about to step forward to help, a tall man directly grabbed the suspect’s wrist.

Of course, the suspect didn’t surrender willingly, but after a couple of moves, he was pinned down on the compartment floor.

"What are you doing? Can you just hit people in broad daylight, is there no King’s Law anymore?"

At that moment, the woman also caught up, profusely thanking the man, then she slapped the thief twice, "Return my money, you damned thief, give my money back..."

The man pinned down could hardly speak, "Who’s the thief? How can you wrongfully accuse an innocent person? I’ll report this to the police."

With that, the man controlling him hesitated as well, "Sister, are you sure he’s the one who stole your money?"

The woman still looked indignant, "It was him; I realized my money was gone and saw him sneaking into the crowd, if not him then who?"
