After being reborn, I hugged the villainous boss tightly.

The man's voice trailed off, his breath gently brushing against her ear, deep and alluring.

Qu Qing frowned and thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "Okay, I can marry you, but on the condition that you rescue my father!"

With his wicked scheme succeeding, the man's smile widened even further.

"Let's go, we're going to rescue your father!"

He couldn't wait any longer, so he took her hand and led her up the mountain.

Looking at the familiar trees in front of her, Qu Qing frowned: "Shouldn't we be going back to get reinforcements? Why are we going uphill again?"

The man didn't pause, his eyes full of mockery: "I, the lord, will personally rescue your father. There's no need for so many burdens!"

Qu Qing: "..."

Could this man be any more arrogant?!

Unbeknownst to them, the village was in complete chaos.

The chief of Mufeng Village was pulled off a cliff by a little girl. If word got out, what would others think of their mighty and domineering chief?

The two didn't arrive at Mufeng Village until after dark. The man walked out in a very casual manner, and Qu Qing quickly dragged him back.

"You'll be discovered if you walk in like that!"

Mu Feng shrugged, his phoenix eyes narrowing: "If we don't walk in, are we supposed to crawl?"

Qu Qing lowered her voice: "We should sneak in, otherwise we won't be able to escape if we're discovered!"

Mu Feng looked down at her cautious appearance and smiled, "Come with me, I know the entrance!"

Qu Qing had no doubts and followed in his footsteps.

After walking a few steps, they arrived at the spot where the two had jumped down.

Mu Feng crossed his arms and gestured to her, "Your father should be in the cell up ahead; there are guards there!"

"Lord Chen is very observant!" Qu Qing said, a sly glint in his eyes.

Without a second thought, Mu Feng headed straight for the prison cell.

The guards' eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when they saw him.

Before the others could react, Qu Qing pulled out the hairpin from her hair and held it to the man's neck: "Release my father right now, or I'll kill your chieftain!"

"..."

Mu Feng was still somewhat surprised, not expecting her to know his identity. A dark light flashed in his deep eyes.

I underestimated her. How could a woman who dared to come here alone be without brains?

He lowered his eyes to look at her: "You knew who I was all along!"

Qu Qing gripped the hairpin tightly, her eyes showing no fear: "Lord Chen is just a frail scholar, his body couldn't possibly be as strong as yours!"

Mu Feng was not afraid of the hairpin in her hand at all.

"Oh, you're quite smart!"

As he spoke, he gestured to his guards.

"Release Qujing!"

The group exchanged bewildered glances. How could their leader, with his skills, be taken hostage by a little girl?

However, they dared not disobey their leader's orders and hurriedly went in to bring Qu Jing out.

Seeing her father being brought out, Qu Qing loosened her grip on the hairpin.

Mu Feng noticed this and moved closer to her so that she could better "hold him hostage".

Seeing that the eldest brother was having a great time, the few people who had run up behind him did not come forward, but instead crossed their arms and watched the show!

The third brother, who was in the distance, frowned when he saw Qu Qing's face. He was not mistaken; this stunningly beautiful woman was the one who had drugged him last night!

"..."

The third brother panicked instantly. Such a beautiful girl, he couldn't let the eldest brother kill her!

When Mr. Qu saw his daughter, he quickly shook his head at her, "Xiao Qing, don't worry about me, you should go quickly!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Feng glared at the old man unhappily. It was already good enough that he hadn't been killed. How dare he trick the little beauty into running away! He deserved to die!

Seeing her father firmly trapped, surrounded by people from Mufeng Village, Qu Qing became even more anxious. She tightened her grip, and the hairpin pierced the man's neck, drawing blood.

"Quickly tell your men to release my father!"

Seeing her eyes red with anxiety, and her frightened yet stubborn expression, Mu Feng glared at his subordinates in front of him with heartache.

"Did you hear me? Release them right now!"

The onlookers were ashamed; how could their leader be siding with this woman?

Qu Qing was worried that Mu Feng would be so easy to talk to; he was always ruthless. She said to her father, "Father, hurry down the mountain and take Mother with you! Don't worry about me!"

Qu Jing cried his heart out, blaming himself for provoking the people of Mufeng Village and harming his daughter!

Seeing that the old man was still lingering, Mu Feng said impatiently, "If you want to leave, hurry up and leave, or I'll kill you in a bit, believe it or not!"

"Xiao Qing, wait for your father, your father will definitely come back to save you!"

After saying this, Qu's father turned and ran away with tears in his eyes.

Without her father, Qu Qing had no more worries, making it much easier to escape.

Seeing that her gaze was fixed on her father, Mu Feng became displeased and patted her hand holding the hairpin: "The hostage is still here, where are you looking!"

Seeing his nonchalant demeanor, Qu Qing reluctantly let go of his hand, knowing that she was no match for this man.

She met the man's burning gaze: "What exactly do you want?"

Mu Feng crossed his arms and raised his chin: "Didn't I say that if I rescue your father, you have to marry me!"

Qu Qing glared at him: "You actually believed me when I was lying!"

Mu Feng shook his head indifferently, then smiled and said, "That's not up to you!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Qu Qing felt a sharp pain in the back of her neck and fainted.

The third brother ran over excitedly: "Big brother, big brother, she's my wife!"

Mu Feng gave him a cold look: "He's mine now!"

The third brother froze instantly...

"Seeing how pretty she is and wanting to go back, boss, that's so unfair of you!"

Mu Feng looked down at the unconscious woman. Her face was fair and delicate, but unfortunately, he couldn't see her bright eyes anymore. However, the thought of having her that night made Mu Feng's lips unconsciously curl up.

"I've got my eye on this one. If I find a pretty girl later, she'll be the first one I go with!"

……

When Qu Qing woke up, it was already the next evening. Her simple clothes had been changed into a red wedding dress embroidered with jewels. The whole room was red, which made her little face look rosy.

She shook her dizzy head.

At that moment, the door was pushed open, and Mu Feng, dressed in a wedding suit, walked in. Seeing the woman on the bed with a terrified expression, he smiled and walked towards her.

Qu Qing hugged the blanket tightly and curled up: "What do you want to do?"

Mu Feng walked over and lifted her chin, gazing intently into her frightened yet stubborn eyes.

"Come on, let's go pay our respects to Heaven and Earth!" He grabbed her hand and tried to lead her outside.

"I'm not going!"

Qu Qing tried to pull her hand away, but no matter how hard she tried, the man held her hand firmly.

Suddenly remembering something, she hurriedly said, "I'm already married to your third brother, so I can't do the wedding ceremony with you!"

She hadn't said those words before, but as soon as she finished speaking, the man stopped in his tracks.

"You'd rather marry him than me!"

Qu Qing stepped back in fear, but still nodded.

Compared to the man in front of me, the one called "Third Brother" is much easier to fool!

Mu Feng didn't know what she was thinking; he only knew that he was very unhappy.

He released Qu Qing's hand and began to take off his clothes.

"Then there's no need for the wedding ceremony; let's go straight to the bridal chamber!"
