    She didn’t know where they were going. When she opened her eyes, she saw the sky full of night. There were no stars, only a strange round moon.

    She looked at it carefully and felt that the moon was rimmed with red.

    The group of strong men carried the she and turned into a quiet courtyard. They detoured so many times that Li Xin was dizzy before she stopped.

    They knocked on the door, and the door was opened from the inside.

    A familiar voice sounded above her head:

    “Give me the men, and you stand down.”

    Those men were also very obedient. They handed over the quilt without a groan. Seeing that Zhuang Lingheng was holding him firmly, they left silently.

    Zhuang Lingheng’s eyebrows moved slightly, and he hugged Li Xin and entered the house.

    Li Xin was put on the couch by he in a daze. Because she had been suffocating in the quilt for so long, her face was swollen red and her eyes were filled with moisture.

    Zhuang Lingheng took out a small bottle from his arms, put it under her nose, and let her take a sip.

    The overly stimulating smell rushed straight into her mind, causing her still somewhat chaotic mind to wake up instantly:

    “What the hell is this? It smells terrible.”

    Li Xin frowned.

    Zhuang Lingheng helped her up and let her lean against the bed:

    “This group of people is quite strange. Did you hear the ringtone just now?”

    Li Xin nodded gently.

    Zhuang Lingheng said:

    “The ringtone seems to be able to confuse people’s hearts. I got this thing from them.”

    It’s a shame that he kept an eye out, otherwise I don’t know what the situation would be like now.

    Li Xin calmed down, but was still confused about the current situation:

    “Why did they send me to you here?”

    Those big men didn’t know which force they belonged to, but they acted so openly and justly, so they obviously couldn’t be Zhuang Lingheng’s people.

    Zhuang Lingheng chuckled:

    “Don’t forget, the reason why I am willing to ‘join’ is to get ‘you’.”

    He emphasized the pronunciation of the word he, and Li Xin reacted.

    So she was used as a bargaining chip to let the man behind the scenes trade with Zhuang Lingheng?

    Gee, I didn’t expect that she would also have this day.

    Li Xin lowered his eyes:

    “But just now I saw it from the window. Grandma and Ayaka seemed to have lost their souls and didn’t know where to go…”

    Zhuang Lingheng suddenly stretched out his hand to touch her lips, his expression slightly condensed.

    Silence.

    he opened his mouth silently.

    Li Xin did not doubt that he was there, so she obediently shut up and looked outside together with he.

    Zhuang Lingheng turned over on the couch, pulled down the curtain, and covered their bodies.

    Just as Li Xin was about to ask him what was going on, he saw he hesitated for a moment, then held the bed board with one hand and pushed it up rhythmically.

    The magnitude of the shaking…this familiar sound…

    Even though the situation was urgent now, she couldn’t help but laugh.

    With Zhuang Lingheng blocking him, Li Xin couldn’t see clearly outside, and saw that he was shaking for a long time before he stopped. He pinched his wrist and turned it, probably because he had exerted too much force.

    Zhuang Lingheng turned his head and looked at her:

    “Mrs. Hou, there are girls watching over us, so you don’t have to worry. This place is safe, so you can rest easy.”

    After that, he stood up and seemed to leave.

    Li Xin hurriedly grabbed the corner of he’s clothes, her tone unavoidable with urgency:

    “Don’t run around.”

    Zhuang Lingheng is not her, but she has a system that can always save her life at critical moments.

    The intruder’s origin was unknown, and he might have something similar on his body. She didn’t want to watch Zhuang Lingheng being tortured to death.

    Zhuang Lingheng was startled, then his expression softened, and he held her hand:

    “I’ll stay with you and wait for the letter. I won’t go out. Don’t worry.”

    he When Li Xin is afraid of being alone.

    Li Xin’s palms were slightly cold, and when he was warmed, she felt a little more comfortable.

    She smiled on her face, but she summoned the system in her heart.

    She must know if the intruder is around now.
