About an hour after Li Mengyue left, the man in red's upper eyelids moved and he opened his eyes. He had no strength left in his body, so he had to close his eyes. After a while, the man in red felt that he had regained some strength and slowly sat up.

Ah Feng was lying beside him. Looking at Ah Feng's chest rising and falling, he finally accepted the reality. Both he and Ah Feng had survived the hunt.

Because he had just woken up and hadn't figured out his current situation, his body was habitually tense and in a state of attack. He wasn't careful and hurt the wound.

"hiss!"

He then realized that his coat was torn into pieces and tangled on the wound. Suddenly he thought of something and reached into his arms. When he found that the thing was still there, he heaved a sigh of relief.

He spent so much manpower and resources to obtain the evidence. If it was lost, he felt he would not be able to return to Beijing to see the third brother.

Seeing that nothing was lost and Afeng hadn't woken up yet, the man in red finally had the mood to think about the girl who saved them.

The scene in his mind flashed back to when he was almost killed and how the little girl killed the killer cleanly and efficiently. He felt his heart pounding.

"I don't know who this little girl is. Judging from her clothes, she looks like a peasant girl. But can an ordinary peasant family raise a girl with such high skills?"

While the man in red was talking to himself, Afeng also woke up from his coma. He stood up suddenly and saw that the prince was fine. Then he saw the situation of him and the prince. They were actually on a big tree.

"Prince, we are saved."

"Well, a girl saved us." The man in red replied casually after hearing his subordinate's words.

Hearing that the two of them were safe, A Feng immediately knelt on one knee and said, "I failed to protect you well, please punish me, Master."

The man in red said nonchalantly: "It's not your fault this time. I didn't expect the other party to be so ruthless and send so many experts to besiege the two of us."

A Feng also knew that they were careless this time, but it was also a fact that he failed to protect his master. He made up his mind to go back and practice kung fu hard to avoid such a thing from happening again.

"Prince, when I get back I want to stay in the Third Prince's secret guard camp for a while."

The man in red was surprised when he heard his subordinate's words and asked, "Ah Feng, is there anything wrong with your brain? Otherwise, why are you so depressed?"

"Your Highness, I am not joking. The fact that I was chased to such an extent this time shows that my martial arts skills are not up to par and I am not qualified to protect you. If the princess knew about this."

A Feng shuddered and didn't dare to think any further.

When the man in red heard his subordinate mention his mother and thought of his mother's appearance, he felt sympathetic and stopped talking about not letting Afeng join the third brother's secret guard camp.

Although the Third Brother’s secret guard camp is like hell, but as long as Afeng can get out of it safely, I believe his skills will definitely improve to a higher level.

The two men finalized the matter of the Secret Guard Camp, and the man in red took out the evidence from his arms and handed it to Afeng.

"Ah Feng, take the evidence back to Beijing and give it to the Third Brother in person. Just say that I told you to go to the Dark Guard Camp. The Third Brother won't make things difficult for you."

"Prince, why don't you go back with me?" When Afeng heard the prince's words, he knew that the prince was interested in the girl who saved them and wanted to get rid of him.

"Sir, I'm sorry I can't obey your order."

"Hey, I told you that you are stubborn, but mother still doesn't believe me. You go back to Beijing first. I'm going to find a concubine for you, and I'll go back after a while."

Obviously, Afeng knew his own prince's temperament very well and knew that the prince would not punish him easily, so he sent out a signal and waited for their people to come and support.

Although the red-clothed man's injuries were not as serious as Afeng's, he had been living a life of luxury for a long time and had not eaten for two days and two nights. Even if he wanted to, he did not have the energy to do it, and he was afraid that his mother would worry.

He had to suppress the thoughts in his mind, return to Beijing to recuperate, and then come here to find the girl who saved him.

But before leaving, he had to make some arrangements, otherwise he was afraid that he would not know how to find it when the time came.

As for Li Mengyue, although there were some minor incidents during this trip into the mountains, she still found the spicy spices she wanted. She did not stop on the way back and it took her a quarter of an hour less than the time it took to come here.

Li told her husband about her worries again. After they had a frank talk about their daughter's affairs, they were no longer so nervous.

However, she couldn't help feeling a little worried when she thought about her daughter going up the mountain. It wasn't until she saw her daughter carrying a basket on her back that she finally felt relieved.

Putting down the work in her hands, she quickly ran towards her daughter and said with concern: "Yueyue, you are back. Are you hungry or thirsty? Sit down and rest for a while. I will go get you some water."

Li Mengyue has always lived a solitary life. After completing a task, she would return to her temporary resting place and cook and eat by herself.

I have never experienced someone waiting for me when I get home, someone caring whether I am hungry or thirsty.

When she saw the concern that Li unconsciously revealed when she saw her, her usually cold heart softened a little.

I still remember that she promised to help the original owner to get revenge and decided to return to Xinghua Village first. On the one hand, she wanted to develop slowly and gain a firm foothold. Once she had enough ability, she would return to the capital to avenge the original owner.

As for recognizing the original owner's biological parents, she didn't care much. Whether Mr. and Mrs. Li Ang recognized her or not, she was confident that she could live well in Xinghua Village.

Unexpectedly, she never expected any affection from her family, but she actually received the sincere love from her parents.

Seeing her mother being so cautious in front of her, Li Mengyue subconsciously said, "I'm a little hungry. I want to eat spicy snails."

When Mrs. Li heard that her daughter was hungry, she became nervous for a moment: "Yueyue, mother will go cook for you right away. But...but mother doesn't know how to make the spicy snails you mentioned."

After hearing what her mother said, Li Mengyue finally realized that she had been in this dynasty for a while and had indeed never seen anyone eating snails.

Before, she saw Minghao touching and playing with it, and he touched it for quite a while, and she felt a little happy in her heart, thinking it was a good deal for her. It turned out that people here didn't even know they could eat it.

"It's okay, just make something casually for now, and I'll make spicy snails for dinner." Li turned around immediately and went to the kitchen to cook for her daughter.

"Eat, eat, eat, you only know how to eat. Why don't you eat until you're full?" Old Mrs. Li saw her second daughter-in-law go to the kitchen to cook, and saw her adopted granddaughter with a bad look. She didn't dare to cause trouble directly, so she could only throw things and fight on the side to express her dissatisfaction.

In Li Mengyue's eyes, these actions of Mrs. Li were too childish and not worth her attention.

Before the family splits up and the house is built, she will live in the old Li house. If Old Lady Li and others behave themselves and the second house eats meat, she doesn't mind letting them have some soup.

If they have to step on her bottom line, she will let them know why the flowers are so red.

Li Mengyue returned home from the mountain, not knowing that she had saved the man in red and his guards with such kindness, not only did she not receive any gratitude points, but she was also being remembered.

If she had the ability to predict the future, I wonder if she would regret saving him. But no matter what, the two of them were bound together because of this rescue, and they would be connected forever in the future.
