Follow the army to the island, the rebellious male protagonist was led by me to counterattack

Chapter 167 Stop crying

Zhou Meilan's left hand trembled, and her right hand was clenched into a fist, with her nails deeply embedded.

"Give me back my child, please, give me back my child."

With a thud, Zhou Meilan's knee slammed hard onto the ground, followed by a series of loud thuds as she kowtowed.

"Why are you taking my child? Give him back to me, he'll be scared."

"Please!"

Zhou Meilan burst into tears and kowtowed repeatedly. People from the surrounding carriages came out to watch as Zhou Meilan, who had been taking care of the child with all her heart for the past two days, came out to watch.

"What are they doing? Why are they trying to snatch Xiao Zhou's child?"

"Mother and daughter have had it so hard, what are you doing?"

"Get up quickly, let's talk about it."

“Little girl, give the child to someone else, or he’ll start crying.”

Shi Xia held the baby and looked down. The baby blew out a bubble, grinned, and melted people's hearts.

cry?
Completely non-existent.

Children aren't stupid. Zhou Meilan fed him rice cereal that he didn't like, and he felt uncomfortable every time he ate it. He didn't like the taste of Zhou Meilan's food. On the contrary, Shi Xia, who had superpowers, made him feel very comfortable.

The baby wiggled his chubby body a few times, found a comfortable position, and looked ready to have a good sleep.

Shi Xia looked up, completely ignoring what the people around her were saying.

People follow the crowd.

Zhou Meilan was trying to gain sympathy. Once the child was in her hands, she would have something to rely on and leverage to threaten him.

"Give it! Give it!"

The train conductor arrived, along with the railway police.

The train conductor was experienced and knew that human traffickers on trains often took advantage of people doing things to escape.

"Everyone, please calm down. I am Zhou Nan, the train conductor of this train. This is my identification. This is Zhu Caishan, the train police officer on our train."

The train conductor identified himself, and while the crowd followed, they were also afraid of officials.

After everyone calmed down a bit, train conductor Zhou Nan explained the basic situation.

"After our investigation, we found that the child is not Comrade Zhou Meilan's son. The child's parents searched frantically, and after contacting them by phone, we are basically certain that the child was taken away by Zhou Meilan without the parents' consent."

"The train will arrive in Beijing the day after tomorrow. The child's maternal grandfather will be waiting at the train station, and the family is on their way to Beijing. During this time, the child will be taken care of by our entire train crew to ensure his safety, so please rest assured."

"Everyone means well and we understand and appreciate their desire to help the children. Please trust us."

After the train conductor finished speaking, two police officers went to help Zhou Meilan.

Zhou Meilan's popular support had vanished without a trace; she scratched at the train floor with her fingernails, her eyes bloodshot.

why?
Why don't you believe her?
Her child is dying, and she's the only one who wants him to live. Why?
Zhou Meilan suddenly looked up and glared fiercely at everyone.

"You are all accomplices, you are all bad people!"

"Why won't you let me save Xiaobao! He's in so much pain, he's in so much pain!"

"I can save him! I can save him!"

Zhou Meilan could no longer distinguish between reality and illusion.

Those who know the inside story can't bring themselves to hate her, nor can they love her; they feel a pang of heartache for her.

But there are many people suffering in this world, and we can't fill every suffering with innocent lives.

Zhou Meilan's nephew is so innocent, and the child's parents must be heartbroken. Are they going to become the next Zhou Meilan?
Zhou Meilan screamed and raged, still lost in her fantasy that someone wanted to kill the baby, when she was taken away by the train police.

The train attendants dispersed the crowd, and the train conductor went to pick up the baby; they had to take on the responsibility of caring for him.

The train had already traveled halfway and couldn't turn back because of a child. The child's parents were frantic with worry after hearing that their child had been found.

They were not comfortable leaving their child anywhere, so they finally decided to send the child to Beijing.

The child's maternal grandmother and grandfather live in Beijing.

"Waaaah—"

The train conductor hugged the child, who then cried. The conductor withdrew his hand, and the child, nestled in Shi Xia's arms, stopped crying.

The train conductor tried again.

"Wow—-er—"

She cried even louder than last time, leaving the train conductor at a loss, with the unsettling feeling that he was a child trafficker.

"My little darling, don't cry—"

The train conductor and Shi Xia looked at each other.

“I didn’t pinch him.”

The train conductor said speechlessly, "I didn't suspect that either."

"Oh—I have no experience, I'm sorry."

The two were talking when a flight attendant nearby couldn't stand it anymore.

"I'll give it a try, I have a baby at home too."

The flight attendant automatically switched to a gentle, motherly voice, reached out her hand, but before she could even touch the baby, the little one burst into tears again, and this time she wouldn't stop.

"Hey, stop crying. You're not even as good as me."

"Comrade Shi Xia, you should quickly comfort her."

Shi Xia blinked.

Soothing a child?
She can play around with the child, but she really doesn't know how to soothe a baby.

She lowered her head.

"do not Cry."

"What kind of nonsense is this—"

The baby has stopped crying.

The train conductor was so angry he laughed. How could such a young child know how to treat people differently based on their status?
Several people tried, but the child just cried. Even luring him with a bottle didn't work; he wouldn't eat a single bite and just clung to Shi Xia's arms.

The train conductor finally gave up.

"Comrade Shi Xia, why don't you just watch? No one's getting into this carriage anymore, could you please help me out?"

"Okay, but let's make this clear first: if he starts crying, you can take him away. I don't know how to take care of children."

"Row!"

After the two agreed, a train police officer moved into Shi Xia's compartment, in the spot where Shi Xia had previously been sitting.

Shi Xia moved from the upper bunk to the lower bunk to make it easier to take care of the child.

After experiencing a series of confusing events, the gossipy old lady in the same private room finally came to her senses and looked at Shi Xia, who was awkwardly holding the child, and said, "Hold her like this."

The old lady helped adjust her posture, and Shi Xia thanked her.

"Young man, what exactly happened?"

Shi Xia gave a brief explanation, and the old lady sighed deeply.

"Oh dear, what a disaster!"

For the rest of the journey, the baby ate and slept, woke up and ate again. When he was full and no longer sleepy, he lay quietly in bed, playing with his little hands and feet, without making a fuss or tantrum.

Shi Xia found it fascinating and asked curiously, "Are all children this easy to take care of?"

The experienced, gossipy old lady said, "That's right. My son was always so fussy when he was little. He needed to be held, and he would cry as soon as he was put down. He couldn't stand being left alone. He really couldn't be separated from anyone. Who would have thought that he would grow up to go to Beijing?"

Shi Xia could tell from the old lady's natural conversation that she had almost recovered.

Night after night.

During this time, the train conductor and attendants would come over from time to time to say hello and bring hot water. Even Shi Xia's meals were taken care of by the train conductor, with three meals a day provided free of charge.

Accountant Xu has gained a little weight from being fed.

Shi Xia looked down and teased the baby, her fingers touching his chubby little face, which felt nice to the touch.

This little guy clearly comes from a wealthy family.
