"If such a big thing happened, why didn't Master send someone to tell me?"
Cairu looked at her little face soaked with cold sweat, and couldn't help feeling distressed and remorseful.
She couldn't help but secretly complain about her dereliction of duty.
Her sister's affairs are very important, but her master is not only her master, but also her benefactor, to whom she will be loyal throughout her life.
But in her absence, she was almost hurt.
For a time, she felt more and more incompetent.
With Lin Mengya's exquisite thoughts, it was impossible to tell that this girl had gone astray.
"The incident happened suddenly, neither Bai Su nor I expected those people's methods to be so powerful.
But I’m fine now, look, am I fine?”
"But, I"
Cairu was still a little overwhelmed, so Lin Mengya grabbed her hand and said sincerely, "I really don't blame you for this matter. Neither you nor I are gods. Of course we wouldn't have predicted in advance when they would take action to harm me.
What's more, those people's methods were so weird that even I almost fell into the trap. Even if you were on the spot, we would only be hurting one more person.
If so, I would rather you remain intact."
To be fair, in fact, whether it was Long Tianyu, Aunt Fang, or Cai Ru, everything they did for her was perfect.
Unfortunately, they can never predict those people's methods in advance.
Of course, this is also completely normal.
So she hoped that Cairu would feel sad and blame herself for this incident.
"In short, I have already thought about it. I am the master's personal guard, so naturally I have to give priority to the safety of the master at all times. I have entrusted my sister to a reliable person. From today on, Bai Su and I will guard her every step of the way.
master."
Cairu's eyes were full of determination.
Lin Mengya knew that she probably couldn't persuade them, so she could only let them go.
Holding a glass of warm water that Bai Su poured for her, Lin Mengya asked the two girls to rest first, while she herself felt a little lost in the weak candlelight.
The night was getting thick outside the window, and gusts of cold wind were whistling by. Although she was isolated by thick doors and windows, she couldn't help but feel a little cold in her heart.
She covered her chest.
His face looked more confused than ever before.
It was different from before, and she still remembered some of the contents of the nightmare just now.
Although most of them turned into blurry shadows, the voice that repeatedly warned her in her dream seemed to linger in her ears all the time, unforgettable.
She hugged her body helplessly.
Although both Bai Su and Cai Ru were reliable people, her intuition told her that she would not be able to reveal anything about the dream to the two girls.
If they are involved If you come, it will most likely be detrimental to them.
So she couldn't say anything and could only taste the torment of fear alone.
In a daze, she seemed to see the door being opened.
A familiar figure walked in, still carrying a chill.
It wasn't until she fell into a familiar embrace that she realized it was not her imagination.
But Yu is back!
"Sorry, I came back late."
The low and hoarse voice was filled with anxious restlessness.
He held her tightly in his arms, wishing that he had never left and left her to face unknown dangers alone.
Lin Mengya didn't know why, tears welled up all of a sudden.
Her little hands grasped the hem of his clothes tightly, and she suddenly didn't want to be strong anymore.
"Why did you come back? Do you know I was scared at that time?"
She choked and said, making Long Tianyu feel even more distressed.
Patting her back softly, he felt sour in his heart and wanted to kill those who hurt her right away.
"It's all my fault. I came back too late. Don't be afraid. I'm back. As long as I'm here, no one will dare to come again."
Lin Mengya nestled in Long Tianyu's arms and cried regardless.
Until the end, she actually sobbed and fell asleep, but her hands were still tightly hooked on his arms, and her whole little face was buried in his arms, showing an extremely dependent posture.
Long Tianyu originally wanted to deal with the recent backlog of problems. The most important thing was that he wanted to find out the truth about his wife's assassination that day.
But now everything is less important than the sweetheart in my arms.
He coaxed her softly and quickly took off her coat, shoes and socks as she hummed in dissatisfaction.
Then he quickly got on the bed and held her tightly in his arms.
Unknowingly, he followed her and fell asleep.
It wasn't until daybreak the next day that Lin Mengya saw a familiar embrace as soon as she opened her eyes.
Looking up, I saw that the angular chin was already covered with green stubble.
She reached out her hand and touched it gently, but she didn't want to wake up Long Tianyu.
"Would you like to sleep some more?"
The man's voice was a little low and hoarse, with a hint of sleepiness.
Lin Mengya once again nestled into the comforting embrace and shook her head gently.
"When did you come back last night?"
"Oh, I don't know who was crying in my arms for half the night,
Still holding her neck and refusing to let me leave? I didn’t even know someone missed me so much.”
Lin Mengya's face turned red.
The memory of last night instantly became clearer in my mind.
It's just that she thought it was all a dream, that's why she cried so wildly.
Unexpectedly, he actually came back!
When she was the most lonely, the most helpless, and the most in need of him.
Even though she was teased, she still felt a slight sweetness in her heart.
"So what if it's me? You're a man. If I don't cry with you, why should I cry in the arms of another man?"
That attitude was really justified, but Long Tianyu hugged her and laughed softly.
"Everything Madam said is right! Of course you can cry in my arms at will. Whether it's your tears or your smile, I want to keep it alone."
Lin Mengya's pretty face flushed instantly, she gave the guy a light slap, turned around and ignored him.
"Nasty! How can I eat with you like this so early in the morning?"
Long Tianyu rested his head on his hands and said leisurely, "I'm just telling the truth and it makes you feel numb. Tsk, tsk, you are already the mother of three children, why can't you tolerate love words so much?"
I’m afraid those girls who haven’t left the court are thicker-skinned than you, right?”
Lin Mengya couldn't help it and rolled her eyes at him.
"What? Do you want to find another wife?"
Long Tianyu took the person into his arms with his big hands and held him tightly.
"I won't change it! Even if you give me the fairy in the sky, I won't change it!"
Lin Mengya felt that he was so numb that she almost had goosebumps, so she quickly changed the topic.
"Didn't you say you won't be back in a few days? By the way, where is the teacher? Has he come back with you?"
The relaxed expression on Long Tianyu's face suddenly faded a lot.
He played with one of his wife's hands, actually observing her reaction to prevent her from getting emotional after hearing the news.
"Mr. Baili did not come back with us. In fact, he and I never met."
Lin Mengya didn't think much about it at first, thinking that the teacher's schedule was delayed.
"Then the teacher didn't say when he would arrive?"
"Actually, Mr. Baili arrived at the Ancient Clan half a month ago, but"
Lin Mengya suddenly had a bad premonition, stood up and looked at him, urging anxiously.
"If you have anything to say, tell me quickly, I'm so worried!"
"Don't worry, Mr. Baili should be safe now. It's just that he lost contact with our people after entering the ancient tribe, but I can guarantee that no one will do anything against him for the time being. .”
Lin Mengya immediately became furious, staring angrily and saying, "Everyone is gone, how can you guarantee me that the teacher is safe?"
She was so anxious that she immediately got out of bed to look for someone, but was held back by Long Tianyu.
"I'm just afraid that you'll worry too much, so I want to hide it from you. You calm down first and listen to me. Mr. Baili left on purpose.
I've already asked those responsible for his protection whether they deliberately sidestepped our group the night he disappeared.
You also know that the teacher is a smart man, and it is not difficult for him to save his life. So I think there is something he wants to do, but he doesn’t want us to know."
Such an explanation is not enough to reassure Lin Mengya.
In her opinion, although the teacher is powerful, this is an ancient tribe after all, and it is a very strange place for both of them.
Even though the teacher had many tricks, she still felt dangerous.
Her brows couldn't help but frown tightly. She always felt that the teacher's sudden disappearance might not be that simple.
"Then have you brought someone to check who took him away and where he went?"
She was sure that the teacher had never been here.
So even if the teacher wants to leave, he will not do it alone.
Unless, there is his insider within the ancient clan!
Long Tianyu quickly hugged Shunmao and told what he knew.
"I personally led people to investigate. On the night when the teacher disappeared, there were indeed traces of people and horses around.
But they were very careful, and their tracks after entering the ancient tribe had been covered up. I checked for several days and found that they went straight into the interior of the ancient tribe."
The entire ancient tribe's territory was distributed in a fan shape.
Lin Mengya also got confirmation of this from people like Aunt Fang and Uncle Huo.
Small families such as the Li family and the Gan family, or some families excluded from the core of ancient clan power, all live on the largest side of the fan.
The interior is characterized by a ladder-like distribution.
The Sheng family and the current Zhao family are already in the middle and closer to the interior.
As for the Lezheng family and the Pei family, which are at the core of the ancient people's rights, they live in the center of the top of the fan.
Even the Presbyterian Church is here, but the location is a mysterious place.
Even Aunt Fang doesn't know what's going on there.
I only know that it is the most important thing for the Ancient Clan, and it is also the taboo of the Ancient Clan.
But now, the teacher actually went directly inside.
This made Lin Mengya even more worried, fearing that the teacher would be deceived, or that someone would try to harm the teacher.
