Without saying a word, the woman knelt down directly towards Qi Yang!
Qi Yang was startled, took a step back to avoid it, and reached out to pull the woman up.
The woman shook her head, knelt there stubbornly, and said in a hoarse voice:
"Sir, I know that we have caused you a lot of trouble along the way and what I said hurt your hearts. I apologize to you. I am really sorry..."
"Speak nicely, you get up first!"
Qi Yang tried to pull the woman up with a stiff face, and glanced at the middle-aged man.
The man turned his face away in avoidance, not daring to look at them.
If the woman had known that this was the case, she would not be surprised. She just said with a wry smile with tears streaming down her face:
"It's us who feel sorry for you. You've paid too much all along. It's us who are the white-eyed wolves..." Then she changed the topic and said in a sad voice:
"But sir, if you want to drive us away now, you are asking us to die... You have also seen that we are just ordinary people. We are not as capable as you and there is no way we can survive. Please be kind and forgive us. This time we..."
The woman's moral kidnapping words completely set Qi Yang up, and the people watching all around turned their attention to Qi Yang.
In the eyes of these people, this middle-aged man and woman are the ones who are with them. Qi Yang and these soldiers who call the shots are the rulers, and their thoughts will not be biased towards him.
Sure enough, someone immediately spoke:
"Sir, they have all apologized, let's forget it this time?"
Don't start this thing, otherwise these soldiers will definitely throw them there without saying a word!
People around him began to agree.
The women kowtowed one after another, and the people around them became more and more excited. No one wanted to see anyone being driven away, because they knew that once this precedent was set, there would definitely be more than one like this!
At a critical moment, everyone can only think about themselves. As for other people's grievances, of course they will not be more important than themselves.
The woman seized this opportunity and quickly turned around to grab the middle-aged man's clothes and cursed:
"Why are you still standing there? Apologize!"
The middle-aged man's face became hot and he hesitated:
"I……"
The woman stood up directly, beat him hard, and shouted like a madman:
"You should apologize!"
The middle-aged man saw tears stains on the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, and her face was wet with tears. Her eyes were red from crying. His heart trembled, and he finally lowered his head:
"sorry."
He lowered his head as if reluctantly, but the people around him acted as peacemakers. One or two of them felt that since they had admitted that Qi Yang was wrong, they should not be driven away.
Little did he know that Qi Yang didn't need such an apology at all.
but……
Lu Yan looked at Qi Yang's apologetic eyes, sighed, nodded to him, and pulled Mu Tang away.
Qi Yang was different from him. From his position, he had to hold his head to recognize some moral kidnappings.
Because of the requirement to hand over supplies, the relationship between the army and these survivors is already very tense. If they insist on driving these two people away regardless of their wishes, people will inevitably become panicked.
Then it would be back to the situation he was most worried about - causing a riot.
He can't drive away all the troublemakers, otherwise what's the point of the army paying such a heavy price to bring them back?
But after coming out for rescue, Qi Yang's heart felt completely cold.
Lu Yan took Mu Tang back to the car.
The little girl asked him for her little jar again, then hugged it tightly in her arms, looking down at the pattern on the lid without saying anything.
The carriage was dull.
Lu Yan touched her head. This was the little girl's favorite gesture, but now it had no effect.
Mu Tang didn't react at all, just lowered his head and remained silent.
After a while, suddenly big drops of water splashed on the cap of the jar.
Lu Yan's heart trembled, and he stretched out his hand to hold the little girl in his arms, but Mu Tang avoided it and raised his hand to wipe his eyes.
Lu Yan only felt distressed when he saw her like this. He knew that although Mu Tang was a child at heart, she was much more sensitive to some things.
She has always cared about her identity, so she is so eager to blend in with those people.
Even those little biscuits given by the little soldiers out of gratitude were reluctant to eat even those who liked them so much, and hid them like treasures.
Lu Yan has always been aware of her sensitive little thoughts and efforts, and has never pointed them out whenever the little girl is complacent because of these small gifts.
He was happy for her, but also felt sad.
Lu Yan suddenly didn't want to force her anymore. He should tell her that as long as Mu Tang was Mu Tang, she wouldn't need to care so much about other people's eyes.
Lu Yan opened his mouth and wanted to call her name, but suddenly changed his words:
"Tangtang..."
"Lu Yan, I don't want to go to the base anymore."
Two sentences rang out at the same time.
Mu Tang's eyes lit up, and the depression he had felt just now was gone. He put the jar aside, leaned over, grabbed Lu Yan's clothes tightly, and said with burning eyes:
"What did you call me?"
"..."
Originally, he just wanted to shout to be closer, but Mu Tang reacted so violently that Lu Yan started to feel embarrassed and his face burned badly.
Mu Tang waited for a while, but didn't hear what she wanted to hear. She shook Lu Yan's hand dissatisfiedly:
"What did you call me just now? Say it again..."
Lu Yan originally wanted to force himself to calm down and scream again according to her wishes, but found that he couldn't speak.
Mu Tang's little hand suddenly touched his ear, and a touch of coldness suddenly appeared on the tip of the originally hot ear, which made Lu Yan tremble.
Mu Tang took back her hand and said to herself:
"Why is it so hot? Are you hot?"
Not only was this embarrassing, Lu Yan felt like his whole body was on fire. He coughed twice and wanted to open the car door and get out of the car.
Mu Tang grabbed him and refused to let him go:
"You haven't said it yet, please say it quickly!"
Her delicate little face was full of urgency, and there were still tears on her face, but her eyes were sparkling, and she couldn't see the sadness just now at all.
Lu Yan looked at her, his heart felt hot, and he let go of the hand holding the door bolt.
Mu Tang is still chattering:
"Just scream again, I heard it just now, just scream again..."
Before he finished speaking, he felt his eyes darken, and then his chin was lifted, and a touch of warmth appeared on his lips!
The chirping little mouth was finally blocked. Different from the previous two times, this time there was a hint of shyness on Mu Tang's face, but more of it was joy.
After a while, she suddenly thought of something, closed her eyes obediently, her little hands floated up to Lu Yan's broad shoulders, her whole body relaxed, and she snuggled into his arms.
The little girl's cooperation made Lu Yan, an "old man" who had just fallen in love, feel even more excited. He put his big hand on the back of her head and deepened the kiss.
I don't know how long it took before the two separated.
Lu Yan closed his eyes, held the little girl in his arms, pressed his forehead against hers, and said in a hoarse and low voice:
"Tangtang."
Mu Tang finally heard those two words as she wished, and narrowed her eyes with a satisfied smile. She tightly wrapped her little hands around Lu Yan's waist and leaned into his arms obediently.
