Ruling the Historical Romance Novel as the Female Supporting Character-Chapter 29: Danger! Being Closely Watched!

"Over ten years? But that guy looks like he’s just in his early twenties..." Qiu Yanqing found it hard to believe.

However, seeing his boss’s serious expression, he ultimately suppressed his urge to meddle.

Su Yijia took the lunchboxes and the thermos bottle, their weight pressing down on her shoulders. She hurriedly made her way back to the Su family’s residence. After walking about half the distance, she realized that the person who had bumped into her at the State-Owned Restaurant was following her closely.

These two individuals who bumped into her weren’t the same person, but their goals were likely the same. One bumped into her to place something, and the other bumped into her to take it.

Su Yijia realized that her earlier assumption might have been wrong, but now there was no way to change it. She had to hurry back home and check what was in the bag while there was nobody around. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

When she was coming, she took some shortcuts to save time, but on her way back, even though the sun was getting increasingly scorching, she walked in the most crowded areas. She didn’t know if the person behind her was aware that she had noticed something, but he had been following her steadily.

It wasn’t until she entered the residential complex, with many neighbors coming up to gossip, that he disappeared.

"Yijia, there’s someone at your place. Why don’t you go see it?"

"Did you buy all these good dishes from the State-Owned Restaurant? You called off the wedding, but you still want to buy good food?"

Some of the neighbors were genuinely concerned, while others were making sarcastic comments. Su Yijia didn’t pay much attention to it. But as soon as she entered the building, she found the hallway outside her family’s apartment crowded with nosy neighbors.

"Excuse me, excuse me! Excuse me..."

Su Yijia struggled to squeeze through, her mind filled with questions. She hadn’t even made it inside when she heard a scream from inside the apartment.

"How is it possible! Our daughter is usually afraid to even kill a fish, how could she dare to fight against four human traffickers?" Is this the local police finding their way to her home? Su Yijia squeezed her way in, and her mother’s face changed as soon as she saw her. But she didn’t bother to pay attention to the other party. Instead, she greeted the approaching people warmly.

"Comrades from the police station, why have you come here? Is everything resolved?"

"It’s all resolved! Thanks to your reminder, we cracked a large cross-provincial case yesterday, and rescued more than twenty young girls, and seven or eight children." As soon as the police saw Su Yijia, the cold and stern expression on their faces instantly disappeared.

"How could there be so many?" Su Yijia was shocked. She guessed that there must be some people involved, but she didn’t expect there to be so many.

"We didn’t expect it before we went either, so we handled this matter quickly and with great importance. We confirmed your contributions last night and determined the rewards early this morning. That’s why we came over immediately."

Huan Haolin smiled and took out an envelope from his pocket. "This is two hundred yuan, along with five industrial coupons, coupons for fifty pounds of grain, and also coupons for five pounds of oil. In addition to this, we’ve also arranged for you to get a formal job at the supply and marketing cooperative."

This reward not only stunned Su’s family, but even the onlookers were envious.

"Thank you." Su Yijia didn’t refuse and straightforwardly accepted the items and introduction letter.

Huan Haolin looked at her with her head lowered, her long eyelashes casting distinct shadows, and he hesitated for a moment in the midst of his breathing.
