Xu Qing also understood Li Hui's shock very well. His expression was even more surprised at that time. How could it not be shocking that such a small body looked like he was about 30 years old?

Sheng Changan was not surprised at all. No matter how hard an adult disguises himself, there will always be loopholes. Can such a young child really speak so fluently?

It might seem strange to them, but in her original world, dwarfism, while rare, is not nonexistent.

"Sir, they want to lure you out on purpose," Li Hui frowned.

"I know that to fish, of course you need bait, and since one of you is in the open and the other is in the dark, you don't have to worry about him running away." Sheng Changan touched the gun in his sleeve.

Although it is a bit inconvenient, it is perfect for unexpected situations.

"Sir, the child named Xiaoying must see you," a soldier came in to report, but before he could finish, she rushed in.

Li Hui directly blocked Sheng Changan's way. She knew that the child had bad intentions, so how could she dare to let her come into contact with adults? However, these people still needed training.

Did they really not stop them? No, it was sympathy. It seemed that these people needed to be taught a lesson. Li Hui's brows were a little stern.

The soldiers who reported the incident did not dare to argue. Although out of sympathy, they did not use their full strength, mainly because they thought it was impossible for a child to break through their defense.

Unexpectedly, she actually did it.

The little girl who called herself Xiaoying had a flash of anger in her eyes. She didn't expect that these people would be so wary of even a child like her. It seemed that Sheng Changan was not as good as the rumors said.

She bit her lip and squeezed out a few tears. "Sir, I'm scared. When are we going to rescue them? I... I'm so worried." She even pretended to sob a few times.

But Li Hui didn't feel very good. If such a child really had bad intentions, they would not be on guard for a while.

Who would guard against a young child or an immobile elderly person?

Sheng Changan seemed not to notice Li Hui blocking her way intentionally or unintentionally, and just stood up and said, "We are just about to go."

This time she took the initiative to hold her hand with a smile on her face, as if she was defenseless against her.

"Sir, can you hold me? I can't walk that far." She was still combing the child's hair, her eyes were big and round, and she looked particularly distressed with tears in them.

If you ignore the fact that she keeps her right hand hidden in her sleeve, she does look like a pitiful child.

Seeing that Sheng Changan didn't say anything, County Magistrate Chen suddenly jumped out and said, "Let me hold you, let me hold you."

He carefully picked the person up, not noticing the look of disgust in the little girl's eyes.

Of course, his thoughts were not so pure. After all, he would be working under this lord in the future, so he had to flatter him.

"Sir Chen, I have a carriage. Why don't you put the people on it?" Li Hui suggested kindly. After all, there was a bomb that could explode at any time.

County Magistrate Chen shook his head repeatedly, "Don't worry, my lord. I have a daughter at home. Seeing her like this, I really can't bear it. Let me take care of her for the rest of her life!"

He had heard that Lord Sheng loved children the most, so of course he had to behave well and try to leave a good impression.

This is my life-saving talisman, of course I can't let it go.

"...The journey is long, it might be better to let Xiaoying rest in the carriage." Sheng Changan felt reluctant, as if she was not careful, her life would be lost.

"Don't worry, sir. I'm not tired." County Magistrate Chen insisted on not agreeing, and the expression of wanting to please was clearly visible on his face.

Xu Qing was a little surprised. It was the first time he saw someone seeking death. Even after being advised so much, he still hadn't reacted.

Sheng Changan felt a little tired. He didn't expect that County Magistrate Chen's IQ was so worrying. If this continued, even if he didn't react, the one in his arms would react.

"Then you must take good care of him and don't drop him accidentally," Sheng Changan said with a double meaning.

Not only did County Magistrate Chen not hear anything, he also happily agreed, but Xiaoying's right hand moved to his neck at some point.

Sheng Changan's eyebrows twitched. Never mind. She had tried her best.
