"I'll go. I'll go see what on earth my brother is doing, taking so long." Cheng Beilin wanted Su Qing to rest in the compartment while she went to find Cheng Beize.
"Let me go. You stay in the compartment. Since you're by yourself, remember to lock the door from the inside. Don't open it for anyone, no matter who it is," Su Qing instructed.
"Huh? Is that really necessary? There's hardly anyone in the sleeper car." Cheng Beilin didn't think it was needed.
"Just do as I say," Su Qing told Cheng Beilin.
Seeing how serious Su Qing was, Cheng Beilin involuntarily nodded. "Oh, okay then."
Su Qing left the compartment. After making sure Cheng Beilin had bolted the door from the inside, she moved quickly toward the dining car.
As she reached the compartment closest to the dining car, the door suddenly opened. A middle-aged woman poked her head out and whispered to Su Qing, "Young lady, it sounds like someone's been taken hostage in the dining car. Don't go over there."
