After Xu Wuyan led his men out, Lin Mo opened her eyes.

She watched Xu Wuyan and the others leave with cold eyes, a dark light flickering in her gaze.

The Han family, is it time to take action?

"sister."

Lin Shuo moved to the spot where Xu Wuyan had been sleeping and whispered:

"Those are members of the Han family, not thieves."

Will something happen if my brother-in-law goes out with him?

"Yes, I know." Lin Mo nodded.

"Go to sleep. This is none of your business."

Lin Shuo nodded. "Okay."

After that, he climbed back to his spot, covered himself with the blanket, closed his eyes, and went to sleep.

Lin Mo didn't want to get involved in these things, but now she was in the same boat as Xu Wuyan.

If something happens to him, I won't fare much better.

After a moment of frustration, he carefully lifted the covers and got off the kang (heated brick bed).

The Han family, the Han family, they can't be happy unless they cause trouble for a day?

Shouldn't the fate of Han Yushu and his wife have given them peace?

Why must I force myself to kill a few people before I can behave myself?

"Sister-in-law, I'll go out with you to take a look." Xu Xianyu carefully got up.

For some reason, her eyelids have been twitching all night.

Seeing her older brother leave, she felt extremely uneasy, with a constant feeling that something bad was going to happen.

"No need." Lin Mo shook her head, put on her shoes, and stood up.

"Don't wander off, stay here and sleep, understand?"

She looked intently at Xu Xianyu.

Only after Xu Xianyu nodded did she lift her foot and walk outside.

Xu Xianyu couldn't sleep.

He kept his eyes open, watching Lin Mo tiptoe out.

Please, my brother and sister-in-law, be safe and sound.

When Lin Mo pushed open the door and went out, she couldn't help but shiver as the cold wind blew through her.

Looking into the dark courtyard, there was no one there.

Xu Wuyan was not in the courtyard.

Lin Mo frowned.

Looking at the half-open gate, he and the Han family left the post station.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Mo walked towards the carriage and found that Xu Ping'an was not inside.

It seems Xu Wuyan took Xu Ping'an with him when he went out; he wasn't foolish enough to go out alone. Lin Mo was relieved.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Mo went back to sleep.

She had previously overheard the Han family's plan: to force Xu Wuyan to sign.

Xu Wuyan knew very well what signing meant.

He wouldn't be foolish enough to sign it.

There's no need to worry about their martial arts skills.

When Lin Mo returned, she saw that Xu Xianyu was still awake and gestured for her to go to sleep quickly, telling her not to worry.

Xu Xianyu glanced at the direction of the gate before closing her eyes to sleep.

Lin Mo hid under the covers, thought about things for a while, and then drifted off to sleep.

I don't know how long I slept, but suddenly the door was pushed open, followed by hurried footsteps and complaints.

"Could you please be a little quieter when you're going in and out, opening and closing the door? It's so noisy!"

"Who's so inconsiderate as to leave the door open? Are they trying to freeze someone to death?"

"Close the door! It's freezing!"

……

The complaints woke up most of the people in the house.

Lin Mo was also awakened by the noise.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw a person covered in blood rushing towards her.

Startled, she quickly got out of bed.

Only after getting up did they realize that the blood-soaked person was Xu Ping'an.

At this moment, Xu Pinggui and the others also got up and stepped forward to help Xu Ping'an.

"Ping An, what happened? How did you get so badly injured?"

"Ping An, what's wrong with you?"

……

Xu Pingan, looking anxious and not even catching his breath, quickly said:

"Young Madam, something has happened to the young master."

The young master fell into a trap, was slashed, and tumbled down the hillside. His fate is now unknown.

As soon as he finished speaking, he leaned weakly against Xu Pinggui.

"What!" Xu Dapeng gasped.

He looked furious.

"Young Master, how did you get injured?"

"Shut up, all of you. Don't say a word." Lin Mo glanced coldly at Xu Dapeng.

She took out some medicine for her injuries and asked Xu Pinggui and the others to help Xu Ping'an onto the kang (a heated brick bed) first, and then she bandaged his wounds.

Only after Xu Pinggui began bandaging Xu Ping'an's wounds did she ask what had happened.

Could it be that the Han family intends to use force to coerce Xu Wuyan?

Lin Mo frowned as she guessed.

Just then, the others inside the room shouted in dissatisfaction:

“It’s been the Xu family coming and going all night, and now you’re still making a racket. Can you please be quiet? You’re not sleepy, but we are.”

"Yeah, it's so noisy, can you please be quiet?"

……

Lin Mo picked up a wooden stick, her eyes sweeping over them with a sinister glint.

"Who told us to be quiet just now?"

The room fell silent instantly.

Everyone remembered how she killed a horse with a single punch.

Coward.

Lin Mo threw the wooden stick back to the ground and looked at Xu Ping'an:

"Didn't he go out with the Han family? Why did this happen? And what happened to your injuries?"

Xu Pingan took a breath before slowly recounting his story.

……

It turned out that after Xu Wuyan went out with Han Dashan, Han Dashan told Xu Wuyan that Xu Mengxian and another guard, Han Ping, had secretly gone to town and had not returned yet.

Old Master Han was worried that something might happen to them, so he sent him to tell Xu Wuyan about it.

As for whether or not to go out to find someone, that's entirely up to Xu Wuyan.

Xu Wuyan's face darkened on the spot.

Xu Mengxian is such an idiot.

Han Dashan lowered his head and said, "Young Master, Miss Biao has been gone for two hours. According to the schedule, she should be back by now."

But they still haven't returned. Should we call some people out to help look for them?

Xu Wuyan's face darkened. "Why did she go to town?"

Late at night, sneaking into town, Xu Mengxian, though foolish, didn't have that much courage.

This is likely related to the Han family.

"Miss, it's for the old master's sake." Han Dashan lowered his head.

"The old master caught a cold and had a fever. Miss Biao volunteered to go buy medicine, but the old master advised her not to go. She wouldn't listen, so the old master had no choice but to send Han Ping to escort her to buy medicine."

Xu Wuyan sneered, "An excuse."

With so many guards in the Han family, why would they need a little girl like her to buy medicine?

Xu Mengxian, that idiot, got tricked.

He has to go this time, otherwise the Han family won't let Xu Mengxian, that idiot, get away with it.

She was, after all, his younger sister. Even though she was so stupid she could drive him crazy, he couldn't just ignore her.

Xu Wuyan glanced at the door behind him. He didn't disturb Lin Mo and the others inside, but instead called out Xu Ping'an, who was sleeping in the carriage.

The two then headed straight for Jiuquan Town.

Before they even reached Jiuquan Town, they spotted Xu Mengxian from afar.

Her small, thin body struggled to support Han Ping as they walked back in the cold wind.

And in her right hand, she was holding two packets of medicine.

Xu Wuyan, his face dark, led Xu Ping'an to greet them.

"Brother, what brings you here?" Xu Mengxian asked excitedly when she saw Xu Wuyan.

Xu Pingan stepped forward and helped Han Ping up.

Xu Wuyan glanced at the unconscious Han Ping, then looked at Xu Mengxian with a stern face:

"what happened?

"You've got some nerve, haven't you? Running around in an unfamiliar place so late at night? Don't you know you could easily get into trouble? Have you considered the consequences?"

Xu Mengxian's eyes welled up with tears after being scolded by Xu Wuyan.

But she stubbornly refused to let her tears fall, and then stuffed the medicine in her hand into Xu Wuyan's hand:

"This is a medicine for treating colds that I managed to buy after knocking on every pharmacy in Jiuquan Town."

Seeing that he didn't take it, she forced it into his hand:

"You take it."

Xu Wuyan snorted coldly, loosened his grip, and let the medicine fall to the ground:

"This is something you went through so much trouble to get for your maternal grandfather, it represents your filial piety, why are you giving it to me!"

Seeing the medicine fall to the ground, Xu Mengxian, who was bending down to pick it up with a pained expression, looked up at Xu Wuyan in surprise:

"Brother, who said this medicine was for Grandpa?"

"No...didn't my sister-in-law catch a cold? This, this is what I bought for her."

Xu Mengxian became somewhat hesitant at the end.

"You mean, you bought this medicine for your sister-in-law?" Xu Wuyan narrowed his eyes!

Something is wrong!

Danger!

Xu Wuyan tensed up instantly, grabbed Xu Mengxian who was about to speak, pulled her forcefully toward him, and then kicked the unconscious Han Ping.

Xu Ping'an was shocked!

He subconsciously loosened his grip, stepped back, and moved to the side. The next second, he felt a sharp pain in his arm.

Only then did he realize that Han Ping was attacking him with a dagger.

If he hadn't instinctively let go and dodged when he saw his master suddenly attack Han Ping, Han Ping's dagger would have pierced his chest instead of his arm.

Han Ping missed the best opportunity to dodge because he attacked Xu Ping'an, and was kicked away by Xu Wuyan.

He flew backward a few steps before regaining his footing.

Xu Mengxian, who was standing to the side, was completely stunned by this scene.

Wasn't Han Ping seriously injured and unconscious?

How... how did he suddenly wake up, and why does he want to kill Xu Ping'an?

This...what is going on?

"Kill!" Xu Wuyan stared coldly at Han Ping.

Xu Pingan glanced at the wound on his arm, nodded, and was about to rush forward.

But at that moment, more than a dozen men in black rushed out from both sides, brandishing knives and charging at them.

Upon seeing these menacing men in black, Xu Mengxian's face instantly drained of color, and her body...

She was cheated.

The Han family deceived him; they used him to lure out his elder brother.

They want to harm the eldest brother!
