Courtyard House: My Long and Hard Body Makes Me Play with All the Women in the Courtyard

"This is Miss Su Ting," the team member introduced. "She is the daughter of a high-ranking official. We found her near the archives; it seems she has been kidnapped."

Su Ting crouched down and gently patted Su Ting's hand: "Don't be afraid, we'll take you back to camp safely now, no one will hurt you anymore."

Su Ting's eyes welled up with tears, and he nodded in gratitude.

Su Ting got up and walked out of the tent, instructing the team members beside him, "Get her some hot water and food, and find someone to take care of her."

Just then, Karl's voice came from outside: "Suting, the fortifications are complete, and the roadblocks are in place. They should be able to hold them off for a while."

Su Ting nodded in satisfaction: "Well done. But we must not be careless and must remain highly vigilant."

Carl was about to leave when he suddenly stopped: "By the way, I found some strange marks in the woods earlier. It seems that other people are also active in this area."

Su Ting frowned and asked, "What kind of marks?"

“They are footprints and markings, not like the enemy’s style,” Carl replied.

Su Ting fell into deep thought: "There may be some third-party forces involved, but our current focus is on ensuring our own safety."

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps sounded not far away, and another team member rushed over and said, "Su Ting, someone has sent an emergency signal!"

Su Ting took the encrypted letter, opened it, and his expression immediately turned serious: "It seems the situation has become more complicated. There is important intelligence that needs to be dealt with immediately."

"What happened?" Carl asked with concern.

Su Ting looked up at his teammates, his gaze resolute: "A new mission has been assigned, and we must depart immediately. Everyone pack your gear and leave here within ten minutes!"

"Understood!" the team members responded one after another, quickly packing their belongings and preparing to set off again.

Su Ting glanced at Su Ting beside him and silently made a promise in his heart: No matter what, this time he must not let her suffer any more harm.

Carl patted him on the shoulder: "Let's go, Suting, there are still many challenges ahead of us."

Su Ting took a deep breath and nodded: "Okay, let's go!"

Su Ting quickly turned around and went back to the tent. Su Ting was sitting in the corner, hugging his knees with his hands, his eyes still filled with unease.

“Su Ting, we have to go,” Su Ting tried to soften his tone. “We will make sure you are safe. Now come with me, we need to get out of here quickly.”

Su Ting nodded. Despite her fear, she managed to stand up and followed Su Ting out of the tent. The entire camp was already in a flurry of activity as the team members quickly packed their equipment, preparing to leave.

"What's going on?" she asked in a low voice, her eyes filled with confusion.

As they walked, Su Ting briefly explained, "We've received new mission orders and must act immediately. I'll tell you the details on the way; right now, the most important thing is to ensure our safety."

Just then, Karl ran over, carrying some supplies. "I've prepared some dry food and water for you and Su Ting," he said to Su Ting.

Su Ting gratefully accepted the gifts, then turned to Su Ting and handed them to her. "The journey may be difficult, but please trust us, we will definitely take you to a safe place."

Su Ting nodded and whispered a thank you. Then, the group quickly crossed the camp and headed towards their planned evacuation route.

After walking for a short while, Su Ting stopped and gestured for everyone to rest. Su Ting took the opportunity to sit down and catch his breath. The surrounding environment was unusually quiet, even somewhat eerie. The occasional bird calls from afar only accentuated the stillness.

"You mentioned strange footprints before?" Su Ting suddenly spoke, breaking the silence.

Carl nodded in response, “Yes, we found some markings at the edge of the woods. We suspect there might be another force operating nearby. But don’t worry, Sutin will lead us to the safest route.”

Su Ting looked at Su Ting, her gaze filled with gratitude mixed with a hint of admiration. He looked at her with a firm yet gentle gaze, as if silently conveying: Don't be afraid, I'm here for you.

Just as the team was about to continue advancing, a burst of rapid gunfire rang out all around. Everyone immediately became alert and instinctively sought cover.

"Who is it?!" Su Ting shouted.

Karl quickly drew his sidearm from his waist and nervously looked around: "The sound is coming from the southeast... It's not a weapon the enemy is familiar with! Could it be that an unknown force has really intervened?"

A tense and dangerous atmosphere filled the air, and even Su Ting unconsciously held his breath. At this critical moment, another round of shooting followed by silence, as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.

Seeing this, Su Ting decisively issued the order: "Maintain formation, remain vigilant. Continue advancing and get rid of the potential threat posed by this uncertainty as soon as possible."

Following his instructions, the team members continued cautiously forward, each step taken with utmost care. They briefly encountered attacks from unidentified individuals several times along the way, but fortunately, their experience and quick reflexes allowed them to escape unscathed.

As night fell, Su Ting discovered a relatively secluded cave and decided to set up camp there temporarily. "Let's rest here tonight," he said to the group, and arranged for them to take turns standing guard. "We must not let our guard down."

At dinner time, Su Ting seemed a little more relaxed as she ate her dry rations and drank hot water around the campfire. Taking advantage of this moment, she once again asked Su Ting the question that had been on her mind: "What exactly is this new mission you mentioned before?"

Su Ting glanced at his teammates, who were also watching him with curiosity, sighed softly, and began to recount the contents of the encrypted letter… “In short, we need to go to a location that is said to contain extremely valuable intelligence, and at the same time, we need to rescue an important figure who has been imprisoned by the enemy. Of course, all of this is highly classified, so we can only find out more details when we get there.”

No sooner had he finished speaking than a patrol team member on patrol nearby suddenly ran back quickly to report that it seemed another stranger had appeared.

Everyone instantly snapped back into battle mode. "Damn it!" Karl cursed under his breath, "This is so troublesome! Looks like tonight won't be peaceful at all."

Faced with the unease and doubt brought about by the unexpected situation, Su Ting looked at his partner who was still firmly supporting him and the girl who needed protection, and a sense of responsibility rose in his heart like never before.

Su Ting's words were like a shot of adrenaline, instantly calming everyone down a bit. He quickly organized the team and assigned tasks: "Karl, you take two team members outside to scout the situation, and try not to reveal our position. The rest of you stay put."

"Understood!" Karl nodded firmly, then quietly left with his two teammates.

Su Ting looked at Su Ting anxiously, her voice trembling slightly: "Are you really alright?"

Su Ting gently patted her shoulder, his eyes filled with tenderness: "Don't worry, Su Ting. We have the best team, and we're not fighting alone. As long as we work together, we'll definitely overcome all difficulties."

Su Ting nodded, trying to calm herself down. She knew that she couldn't add any more burden to Su Ting at this time.

Light footsteps sounded outside the tent, and Karl returned with two team members. His face was grave: "We spotted some suspicious figures to the southeast, seemingly conducting a search operation. But their equipment and movements are very well concealed, making it difficult to determine their specific intentions."

"Did you hear anything?" Su Ting asked.

Carl shook his head: "There are no more clues for now, but we can't let our guard down. Those people are clearly looking for something, and we can't rule out the possibility that they'll find us here."

Su Ting pondered for a moment, then made a decisive decision: "Here's the plan: everyone will be divided into two groups, one to patrol the perimeter and the other to defend the inside. Su Ting, you stay in the middle, we'll protect you."

The team members nodded in agreement, quickly adjusted their formation, and began carrying out their assigned tasks. Su Ting stood in the center of the camp, staring intently at the darkness ahead, calculating the next step in his plan.

The night was as dark as ink, and the silence was suffocating. Suddenly, a faint sound came from not far away, as if something was quietly approaching. Everyone held their breath, watching their surroundings warily.

"Who's there?" Su Ting's voice echoed in the night sky.

"Don't shoot! We're on the same side!" A deep and familiar voice came from the darkness, and then a figure slowly appeared, it was Mark, the teammate who had lost contact earlier.

"Mark! You're alive!" Carl exclaimed in surprise.

Mark walked to the campfire, looking tired but determined: "I was chased by the enemy all day and barely managed to shake them off. I saw some noise here and came to check."

Su Ting breathed a sigh of relief, but remained vigilant: "Are you sure you're not being followed?"

“I’m sure,” Mark nodded, “but I have some important news to share. Our destination has been discovered, and they’re heading there.”

Upon hearing this, Su Ting frowned deeply: "Then what should we do?"

Su Ting pondered for a moment, then looked at everyone: "It seems we have no choice but to speed up and get there as soon as possible. We must be careful on the way and absolutely not give the enemy any opportunity to take advantage."

"Captain, I think we should rest for a bit first," Karl suggested. "After all, we've been traveling for so long, everyone's exhausted. If we can take this opportunity to recover our strength, we can set off again tomorrow."

Su Ting hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded in agreement: "Alright, we'll rest here tonight. But we must be vigilant and take turns on guard duty."

The team members nodded and began to prepare for rest. Su Ting arranged the sentries, then sat down next to Su Ting and said softly, "Su Ting, get some rest tonight. I'll be watching over you."

Su Ting looked at Su Ting gratefully, a hint of tenderness flashing in her eyes: "Thank you, Su Ting."

"No need to thank me, it's my duty," Su Ting said with a smile, then got up and walked to the outer perimeter to begin his patrol.

Chapter 621 Danger

Night deepened, and the camp was silent. Su Ting carefully surveyed the surroundings, making sure nothing was overlooked. He walked to Mark's side and asked softly, "Mark, are you sure they don't know our exact location?"

Mark shook his head: "They probably don't know. I did a lot of interference when I was trying to shake off the pursuers. But it's always better to be cautious."

Su Ting nodded: "Understood. You go and rest first, I'll take care of things from now on."

“Okay, Captain.” Mark patted Su Ting on the shoulder and turned to walk towards the tent.

Back in Su Ting's tent, Su Ting sat beside her, silently gazing at her profile. Feeling his gaze, Su Ting slightly opened her eyes, looking at his warm smile, and a strange sense of security welled up within her.

"Can't you sleep?" Su Ting asked softly.

Su Ting gently shook his head: "Maybe I'm a little nervous. I have this feeling that we're getting closer and closer to that place, and there's something indescribable about it."

Su Ting took her hand and said gently, "Don't worry, Su Ting. No matter what happens, I will protect you. We've come this far, we can't give up easily."

A tear glistened in Su Ting's eyes: "Thank you, Su Ting. Actually, I was very scared, but as long as you're here, I feel at ease."

"No need to thank me, we're teammates and friends." Su Ting gently stroked her hair. "Close your eyes and get some rest. We still have a long way to go tomorrow."

Su Ting closed his eyes and gradually drifted off to sleep. Su Ting continued to stay by her side until the next team member came to relieve him.

The next morning, just as the sun peeked over the horizon, the camp was filled with the sounds of activity. The team members quickly packed their gear and prepared to depart. Su Ting stood at the front of the group, his expression grave, and said to everyone, "Today we must advance at full speed and reach our destination before the enemy. Everyone must remain vigilant along the way and not fall behind."
