Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space-Chapter 1088: A Scare but No Danger
More than one person came in, but He Jinxuan’s body, having been covertly and overtly conditioned by Xinyan, had already recovered to its best state.
For a moment, those few people were kept at bay in the courtyard by He Jinxuan, unable to rush into the house despite their efforts.
However, handling three people on her own indeed required significant physical exertion.
Half an hour later, she inadvertently left an opening, allowing two people to hold her down while the remaining one kicked open the door and dashed into the living room.
Although Gu Wanqing had given birth not long ago, Xinyan had prepared a pill in advance to help her recover her body, and she had long returned to normal; additionally, she had been using space food recently, making her no different from a regular person.
During those years abroad, she put great effort into learning martial arts to settle down, avoid being bullied, and dream of returning to her homeland one day. The bitterness involved was something only she knew.
No matter how tough it got, she gritted her teeth and persevered, not wanting to worry her parents by telling them, fearing they’d urge her to give up.
The intruder did not expect Gu Wanqing to be a skilled fighter, evenly matched in combat, causing him great anxiety.
He Jinxuan, seeing the person slipping into the room, fought all the more fiercely, quickly crippling one person’s leg. The other remaining didn’t last many moves and was directly incapacitated by He Jinxuan, both lying on the ground, powerless to fight back.
After searching them and finding no dangerous weapons, He Jinxuan dislocated their arms and rushed back to the living room.
He didn’t expect his mother-in-law’s skills to be more than just show, handling the situation with ease.
But he couldn’t simply stand by, so he directly kicked the intruder’s back. Caught off guard, the man knelt on the floor.
He Jinxuan gestured to Gu Wanqing, indicating for her to step back and leave this person to him.
Gu Wanqing, being a woman, had expended a lot of energy and was still nursing, naturally refraining from forcing herself.
Yet she didn’t return to her room but stayed on the way back, guarding against sudden changes.
Just as He Jinxuan subdued the intruder, there was movement in the courtyard.
Dragging the man out of the courtyard, He Jinxuan saw that Han Jingchen’s arrangements of people hidden in the shadows had returned.
Each had injuries, and the leader stepped forward, apologetically asking, "Is the Madam alright?"
Today’s incident wasn’t their fault; it was clearly calculated by those behind the scenes, and they suffered from a ’lure the tiger from the mountain’ tactic.
He Jinxuan patted one of their shoulders, "Rest assured, it’s a narrow escape."
The leader exhaled in relief, "That’s good, that’s good. These people clearly plotted long before, luring us away with considerable intentions.
Luckily, the Madam is safe, or we wouldn’t know how to face the boss."
Gu Wanqing had already returned to the room, "Sister Chen, they must be exhausted and hungry after working all night. Please prepare some simple meals to help them replenish their strength."
Sister Chen quickly replied, "Alright, alright, alright, I’ll go right away and make sure they eat well."
She hurried out of the room, "Hey, old man, come over and lend me a hand to make this faster."
She was genuinely worried, fearing another group might come, leaving them too weak to fight and threatening the safety of the Madam and the young master.
Outside the main gate and in the courtyard, those who had been subdued were gagged and tied up, dragged to the courtyard where Sister Chen lived and tossed into the utility room, waiting for Han Jingchen to handle them tomorrow.
