339 338: Leave a letter

Machine Translation

When she returned to the house, Kang Xiaoqiao found a letter on the wardrobe. On it was a crooked letter, written in Kang Xiaoqiao's name.

The content of the letter was very simple. It was that she had left. She had gone to the provincial capital to look for her second brother, so that Kang Xiaoqiao did not have to worry about her

Looking at the short letter with the handwriting of a primary school student, some of which even had circles and Pinyin, Kang Xiaoqiao's face turned black.

She had never expected that Kang Daqiao would actually run away from home without making a sound. She had actually run away from home--

It was winter in the middle of the month, and the wind outside was blowing so hard that it chilled one's heart. With Kang Daqiao's personality, she would definitely walk to the town on foot and think of taking a car. However, the ministry was several kilometers away from the town, and walking against the wind... She wouldn't be able to reach the town in less than an hour or two.

Moreover, it was so cold outside. Kang Xiaoqiao shivered at the thought of it.

She was even angrier in her heart. However, no matter what, she had to hurry up and look for her. They had set off in the morning, and they had already walked for two to three hours.

Kang Xiaoqiao anxiously called Lu Yichen, and then she hurriedly put on her clothes. Not long after she was done putting on her clothes, Lu Yichen drove back.

Kang Xiaoqiao was in a hurry. "Yichen, hurry up, my big sister ran away from home, quick--"

Lu Yichen frowned. Without saying a word, he stepped on the gas pedal and jumped out.

Who would have thought that a timid and weak girl like Kang Daqiao would actually run away from home? In this era where society was strict about going out, Kang Daqiao, who had never traveled far and did not have any identity documents, would be mistaken for a drifter.

She would be locked up, and this was even when she went to the provincial capital. What she was most afraid of was that she would be deceived before she could even go to the provincial capital.

Kang Xiaoqiao blamed herself anxiously. "It's all my fault. Yesterday, she said that she wanted to go to the provincial capital to look for second brother. I told her that I would send her there after the New Year. I thought that I had already made sense of it, but who would have thought that she would leave a letter and leave."

"The New Year is coming soon, and the weather is freezing. What if, what if..."

Kang Xiaoqiao said anxiously as her eyes became moist. However, she was stubborn and did not let her tears flow. This was the first time that Lu Yichen had seen Kang Xiaoqiao so anxious and unsettled.

He frowned and patted her shoulder. "Don't worry, it's fine. I've already told the town before I came. If they see your big sister, they'll stop her."

However, Kang Xiaoqiao was not comforted. She was really anxious. The whole journey was covered in white snow. There was not a single person?

When they reached the town, they went straight to the train station. However, the train station was deserted. There was no train at this time, so naturally, no one was there.

The moment Kang Xiaoqiao and Lu Yichen appeared, they attracted everyone's attention. After Kang Xiaoqiao got off the train, she looked around and began to ask around.

"Aunt, have you seen her before? Yes, she's a little shorter than me. She's a very good-looking girl. She has big eyes, double eyelids, and short hair. She's wearing a down jacket that's very similar to mine--"

"Uncle, have you seen her before? Yes, she's a little shorter than me. She's a very good-looking girl. She has big eyes, double eyelids, and short hair. She's wearing a down jacket that's very similar to mine--"

...

Kang Xiaoqiao asked for a long time but no one had seen her before. She suddenly became anxious and grabbed Lu Yichen's arm. "Yichen, where can my sister go? She hasn't been anywhere else. Other than coming to town, she's gone to the county town. She lived in the county town for a period of time..."

When Lu Yichen heard this, he brought Kang Xiaoqiao to the passenger station. As expected, he heard about Kang Daqiao there. She had indeed taken a bus to the county town.

Kang Xiaoqiao knew what kind of person Kang Daqiao was the most. If it were any other time, she would probably rather walk than take a bus just to save some money.

However, she was probably afraid that Kang Xiaoqiao would come looking for her, so she gritted her teeth and took a bus.

After asking about the departure time, the two of them drove to the county town. At this time, Kang Daqiao had almost arrived at the county town, but she was afraid that she had already boarded the train to the provincial town.

There were two trains from the county town to the provincial town, around 9 am and 1 pm.

According to Kang Daqiao's progress, she estimated that she could make it past 9 pm.

Kang Xiaoqiao was not afraid that she would get lost or anything. The problem was that Kang Xiaoqiao had only told her sister about the approximate location of the new factory, there was no detailed address at all. The city was not as simple as the countryside, there were all sorts of people. What if--

In the midst of extreme anxiety, the car moved at the fastest speed. However, after the heavy snow, the road condition was very bad. If one was not careful, they might enter a ditch. The average speed was only forty to fifty horses. It was impossible to drive too fast. However, it was a good thing that they had caught up.

Fortunately, the weather was not good and the train was late. Kang Xiaoqiao and Lu Yichen were frantically looking for people at the train station. They asked around, but there was no news of Kang Daqiao.

After asking around, they had alerted the staff on the train. Everyone helped to look for her, but until the train left, there was no sign of Kang Daqiao.

At this time, Kang Xiaoqiao was anxious. She looked around at the empty train station. Kang Xiaoqiao muttered, "Why is there no sign of her? How can there be no sign of her?"

"Yichen, logically speaking, big sister should have come to the train station. Why can't I see her? This is impossible--"

Lu Yichen frowned and patted her shoulder. "Don't worry, we'll definitely find her. I'll make a call and get someone to help us look for her. Wait for me, don't wander around."

After saying that, he brought Kang Xiaoqiao to a guard's office. Then, he said to a tall and thin man in front of him, "Comrade, please get my wife a cup of hot water."

Then, he said to Kang Xiaoqiao, "You stay here and warm up. I'll be back in a while."

After saying that, he turned around and left. Even though Kang Xiaoqiao had mixed feelings, she knew that a person's strength was short. If Lu Yichen could find someone to help, it would be better than someone she was unfamiliar with.

After the tall and thin male comrade gave Kang Xiaoqiao a cup of water, he looked at her seriously. Then, his face was a little red and he didn't dare to raise his head.

The girl in front of him was really too beautiful. He had never seen such a beautiful girl.

Kang Xiaoqiao thanked him politely and did not say anything. She looked around anxiously outside the window.

From where she was, she had a good view. She could see the entire train station and the small streets. Just as she took a sip of water and casually looked around, she realized that something was wrong in a small alley in the train station.

There seemed to be someone struggling there, but it was too far away and she could not see clearly.

Kang Xiaoqiao hesitated for a moment. Whether she had seen wrongly or not, she would rather believe it than not. She had to go take a look.

Thus, she placed the big teapot somewhere and said, "Comrade, I'll go over there and take a look. If my husband comes back, tell him."

After saying that, she turned around and left, ignoring the man's words.
