Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 1088: A Scare but No Danger

Several intruders rushed inside, but He Jinxuan's body, nurtured both secretly and openly by Xinyan, had fully regained its peak condition.

For the time being, He Jinxuan managed to block those attackers in the courtyard, stopping them from breaking into the house no matter how desperately they tried.

Nevertheless, taking on three foes by herself demanded a tremendous amount of stamina.

After half an hour, she accidentally exposed a weakness, letting two of them pin her down as the last one smashed the door open and bolted into the living room.

Even though Gu Wanqing had recently given birth, Xinyan had given her a pill beforehand to restore her health, so she was back to normal; plus, with space food lately, she felt just like any ordinary person.

Back in her years overseas, she poured her heart into mastering martial arts to stand on her own, dodge mistreatment, and hold onto her hope of coming home someday. The hardships she endured were hers alone to bear.

Regardless of the difficulties, she clenched her teeth and pushed through, never sharing with her parents to spare them worry, afraid they'd push her to quit.

The burglar never imagined Gu Wanqing would be such a formidable fighter, matching him blow for blow and filling him with dread.

Noticing the man sneak into the room, He Jinxuan battled even harder, swiftly breaking one foe's leg. The other couldn't hold out long and got knocked out cold by He Jinxuan, both sprawled helplessly on the ground.

Once he checked them over and found no lethal weapons, He Jinxuan popped their arms out of joint and hurried back to the living room.

He hadn't anticipated his mother-in-law's abilities being so genuine, dealing with the threat effortlessly.

Still, he refused to watch idly, launching a powerful kick into the intruder's back. Taken by surprise, the thug dropped to his knees.

He Jinxuan signaled to Gu Wanqing to retreat, signaling he'd take over from here.

As a woman still recovering and breastfeeding, Gu Wanqing had burned through much energy and wisely chose not to push herself.

Instead of heading to her room, she lingered nearby, ready for any unexpected turns.

The moment He Jinxuan overpowered the attacker, noises stirred in the courtyard.

Hauling the guy outside, He Jinxuan spotted the hidden guards arranged by Han Jingchen returning.

All of them bore wounds, and their leader approached with regret, inquiring, "Is the Madam alright?"

This mishap wasn't on them; the schemers behind it had clearly planned it out, using a 'lure the tiger from the mountain' ploy against them.

He Jinxuan clapped a hand on one's shoulder, "Rest assured, it’s a narrow escape."

The leader let out a deep breath, "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 gone back inside, "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 responded promptly, "Alright, alright, alright, I’ll go right away and make sure they eat well."

She dashed from the room, "Hey, old man, come over and lend me a hand to make this faster."

Her concern was real, worried that more enemies might strike while these men were drained, endangering the Madam and young master.

Beyond the front gate and across the courtyard, the captured assailants were silenced with gags and bound tight, hauled to Sister Chen's courtyard and dumped in the storage shed, awaiting Han Jingchen's judgment come morning.
