Quick Wear: Salted Fish anchor always eats melons on the scene

The criminal has accomplices.

Shi Li staggered to the side, but she was standing on the roof tiles and was wearing a long skirt, so she stumbled and could not stand steadily.

The accomplice saw that Shi Ba was entangled and stabbed at Shi Li with a long sword.

In a split second, Shi Li could only think of jumping down to avoid it, but if he jumped from this height, he would definitely get hurt.

Being injured is better than dying. Shi Li was about to jump down, but was grabbed tightly by a hand and pulled behind him.

At the same time, a hand grabbed the long sword that was stabbing in front of his eyes.

Eighteen stood in front, grasped the sword with his hand, and kicked the man off the roof.

Both of them were defeated by Shi Ba, and Shi Li was safe and sound.

"Miss, go back first."

Shi Ba originally wanted to catch the person in front so that he could turn around and interrogate the mastermind behind the scenes.

But there was more than one person coming, and he couldn't let Shi Li be in danger again. He didn't care about the people on the ground, and directly took Shi Li back to the Sun family with Qing Kung.

With such a big thing happening, Madam Sun and others were naturally alarmed.

The old lady was relieved to see that Shi Li was safe and sound. With a cold face, she ordered Sun Nanchuan to go outside and arrest the man. She also sent a letter to her son who was not at home, asking him to come back immediately.

Finally, Old Lady Sun's gaze fell on Eighteen.

"This is the secret guard my father left for me before he went to war." Shi Li was worried about misunderstanding, so he quickly stood in front of Eighteen and explained to Old Lady Sun.

"That bastard still has some conscience."

The old lady snorted, and when she saw Eighteen's bloody hand, her tone softened a little, "Go get a doctor."

At this moment, the old lady also remembered that Eighteen was the person who delivered the letter for Shi Li before, and gave him another ambiguous look.

Because of all the delay, Sun Nanchuan naturally didn't catch anyone, but he found some clues and came back to report to the old lady.

Shi Li's uncle happened to rush back, and when he heard that Shi Li had encountered such a thing, his expression changed slightly.

"I just heard that my brother-in-law... Jiang Yu won the battle and is now on his way back to the capital."

"Those people seemed to have been prepared and had already escaped, but after tracing back to the inn where they were staying, it seemed that they were from the capital." Sun Nanchuan also said cautiously.

When Madam Sun heard what her children and grandchildren said, she couldn't help but sneer and looked at Shi Li with pity, "I knew it was that bastard who got you into trouble again. How pitiful."

Shi Li was at a loss for words, but she felt that there was something fishy about the matter.

Just like when they encountered pirates on the boat, no matter how bold Xu was, she would never reach out to Jiangnan. Although she was Jiang Yu's daughter, it seemed that she was not feared to this extent.

But after this incident, the Sun family became more careful with her.

When she goes out again, she is not allowed to be accompanied by only a maid; she must be accompanied by at least four guards.

When falling asleep at night, Shi Li sat by the bed and stared at the candlestick in a daze.

All I could think about was Eighteen standing in front of me during the day.

Time and again, even when his hands were covered in blood, he protected her behind him.

Shi Li told himself that this was Eighteen's duty as a secret guard.

But she was just an ordinary girl, and she had to be rescued by Eighteen again and again, so her mind could not remain calm all the time.

Until a familiar voice came to my ears.

"Miss."

Shi Li was surprised to find that Shi Ba appeared beside her. This was the first time he appeared without her calling him and without any danger.

Her eyes unconsciously fell on his hands, looking at the thick white gauze wrapped around them. Shi Li felt as if something hit her heart, and raised her head to look at Eighteen.

"You're so badly injured...it must be painful."

Eighteen then lowered his eyes and looked at his hands.

He didn't feel any pain at first, it was just an ordinary knife wound, which was nothing in his opinion.

But when Shi Li looked at him like that and asked him that question, it seemed like he really felt pain under the gauze.

Eighteen didn’t know why this happened. He tried his best to ignore the subtle pain and looked at Shi Li again.

Her face was a little pale. She had been frightened during the day and her eyes had lost some of their luster.

"I'll keep watch for the young lady, don't worry." Eighteen's voice was low, but more gentle.

Only then did Shi Li realize that Eighteen appeared and said this in order to reassure her.

My heart suddenly felt warm and sweet, and a smile appeared on the corners of my mouth.

"Okay, I'm not scared anymore."

A few days later, Sun Fanzhong, who had been staying in the capital, returned exhausted.

Mrs. Sun was overjoyed to see her son return safely, and her health was almost fully recovered.

Sun Fanzhong spoke to his grandmother and mother one by one, and finally his eyes fell on Shi Li. He sighed and smiled slightly, "Fortunately, my cousin left the capital early."
