At this moment, a few discordant "cough cough" sounds were heard from the side, and the two of them suddenly reacted and turned to look.

Fu Mingxuan was seen sitting on the ground, supported by his sword, looking at the two of them jokingly. Bai Tuantuan was squatting beside him, also seeming to be making fun of them, which made Xiao Wan blush.

Zhao Mingyuan looked at the white tiger in surprise, and then he realized that what those people said was true. It seemed that this tiger was related to Wan'er.

Without thinking too much, Zhao Mingyuan blushed as he helped Xiao Wan over, then helped Fu Mingxuan up and called him "cousin".

Fu Mingxuan winked and smirked, "So you still remember me, your cousin. I thought you only cared about the opposite sex and had no humanity."

"What are you talking about, cousin? How is your injury?"

"Fortunately, seeing you guys are so close, my injuries have mostly healed."

"Cousin, you? You are not?" Zhao Mingyuan was very surprised. He could see that Fu Mingxuan was resisting Xiao Wan. Although Xiao Wan saved him, he knew very well that repaying a favor was one thing, but Fu Mingxuan did not agree to Xiao Wan marrying Zhao Mingyuan in the future.

Zhao Mingyuan also knew that Fu Mingxuan was against Xiao Wan's identity as a peasant girl, but even if he was reinstated in the future, he would not be attracted to anyone else. He only wanted a lover who understood him.

Although Fu Mingxuan's opposition had no effect on him, Zhao Mingyuan ultimately wanted his brother to understand his feelings.

"What do you mean by 'I'? Help me down the mountain." Fu Mingxuan didn't say much and interrupted Zhao Mingyuan with pretended impatience.

Instinctively, he didn't want Xiao Wan to know that he had firmly opposed her relationship with Zhao Mingyuan, and even wanted her to be Zhao Mingyuan's concubine.

Now it seems that this woman has a strong character, is loyal and righteous, and probably won't be willing to be someone's concubine. Moreover, Zhao Mingyuan's current situation is not good at all, so this woman probably really likes Zhao Mingyuan.

Forget it, I'd better not interfere too much.

Ying Mo followed shortly afterwards and was shocked to see his master. He quickly helped his master up and put him on the horse.

Zhao Mingyuan also picked up Xiao Wan and carried her horizontally, preparing to go down the mountain. At this time, Duan Hongyi also followed with Duan Ze and the donkey cart.

Seeing that Xiao Wan was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief, and his nerves, which had been tense all the way, suddenly relaxed.

Then she saw Zhao Mingyuan holding Xiao Wan, and Xiao Wan also looked dependent on him. Her heart skipped a beat, and she felt a little uncomfortable. Even though she knew the situation was like this, she still felt sad.

He forced a smile and rushed over to speak to the others, "Miss Xiao, I'm glad you're okay. When Master Xiao came to ask for help, I went to the city. I just learned that it was my men who were ignorant and delayed rescuing you. I will definitely punish them severely when I return."

When Xiao Wan saw him coming, she hurriedly asked, "It's okay, Boss Duan, how is my brother? Is he safe?"

"Don't worry, your brother is fine. My men have already sent him home. This time it's really my fault for not selecting some people to protect you in time. If you make any mistakes, I..."

Duan Hongyi couldn't continue. He was still frightened and didn't dare to think too much. He was a well-known figure in the business world, but he was so panicked when facing Xiao Wan, a peasant girl.

"Boss Duan, don't worry about it. I'm already very grateful that your restaurant can take in my brother and keep him safe." Xiao Wan said indifferently.

Duan Hongyi felt even more upset. Xiao Wan had always treated him as a business partner, but anyone with a discerning eye could see her feelings for Zhao Mingyuan.

His solemn promise to Xiao Wan that she could ask him for help at any time in exchange for the jade pendant seemed to have become a joke. Xiao Wan's indifferent attitude made him feel very painful.

Duan Ze felt sorry for his master after seeing this situation. In order to save Xiao Wan, his master had tried his best, but there was nothing he could do.

Duan Hongyi felt a little uncomfortable watching Zhao Mingyuan holding Xiao Wan in his arms, their affectionate expressions. He then said, "Miss Xiao, please get in the car and let's go down the mountain."

Xiao Wan looked at the people in the car. If she and Fu Mingxuan were included, the donkey might not be able to pull the car.

So he said, "Let Fu Mingxuan get in the car, I can walk." Fu Mingxuan's injuries were quite serious.

"I'll carry Wan'er onto the horse, and Mingxuan gets in the car." Zhao Mingyuan said without question.

Duan Hongyi then noticed that there was also Fu Mingxuan. This man had an extraordinary demeanor and did not look like he was from a small place like Yuntai Town.

So he bowed and asked Duan Ze to help him get into the car. Fu Mingxuan bowed to thank him and said that he could ask the guards to help. Seeing this, Ying Mo hurriedly carried his master on his back.

When Duan Hongyi saw Fu Mingxuan's guards, he was even more puzzled. Where did Fu Mingxuan come from and why did he have guards?

Duan Hongyi watched Zhao Mingyuan and Xiao Wan riding on the same horse, feeling mixed emotions, and followed them down the mountain.
