"After getting along with you these past few days, I believe you are not a bad person. For the sake of our friendship these past few days, I want to ask you something."
He paused for a moment, pulled Sun Qianqian behind him and said.
"I'm too old to be of any use. I can't run away at all. You can take my granddaughter away and be sure to protect her."
After saying that, he pushed Sun Qianqian into Lin Xiaodong's hands.
"No! I'm going with grandpa too!"
Lin Xiaodong also advised: "Let's go together."
Sun Guolao stroked Sun Qianqian's head lovingly and said.
"Silly boy, taking me with you will only become a burden, and no one may be able to run away by then."
Then he looked at Lin Xiaodong and said.
"The Li family is in this city, very close to here, and there are so many experts here that you can't handle them.
Time is running out now, so hurry up and take Qianqian away!"
Sun Qianqian hugged Sun Guolao tightly and cried, "No! I don't want to leave grandpa!"
Sun Guolao patted Sun Qianqian's back, bursting into tears, and suddenly pushed her away. A dagger appeared in his hand and was placed on his neck.
"Qianqian, be obedient and leave immediately! Otherwise I will die in front of your eyes!"
Sun Qianqian was shocked, and was about to rush towards Sun Guolao, but saw that Sun Guolao had cut his skin with force, and blood began to flow downwards.
"If you don't leave, I will die in front of you!"
Sun Qianqian had never encountered such a scene before. She was sad and at a loss. She could only stand there and cry.
Sun Guolao looked at Lin Xiaodong and said.
"Although I took you in when you were down, I might have harmed you. You should take Qianqian away.
No matter what the final result is, I will work hard to repay you in the next life! Leave quickly! If you don’t leave, it will be too late!”
Lin Xiaodong saw the determination in Sun Guolao's eyes and knew that he could no longer persuade the old man. After saying "take care", he pulled Sun Qianqian and ran out.
Naturally, Sun Qianqian was reluctant to leave Sun Guolao, crying and struggling to be with Sun Guolao.
But how could she break free from Lin Xiaodong's hands?
He stumbled and was pulled into the woods outside the city by Lin Xiaodong, walking towards the depths of the mountain.
After walking for a long time, Sun Qianqian had accepted the fact and was tired of crying. She was pulled away by Lin Xiaodong without thinking.
There are few human traces in this deep mountain. Lin Xiaodong felt that even if the Li family was powerful, it would be difficult to find this place. Seeing Sun Qianqian who was already exhausted, he stopped to rest.
After a while, Lin Xiaodong saw that Sun Qianqian was almost rested, and planned to continue on the road to find a place to rest.
As soon as Sun Qianqian stood up, a woman in green clothes suddenly appeared in the distance, singing a ditty and walking towards her.
How could a woman appear here in this barren mountain?
Lin Xiaodong felt something strange, and was about to drag Sun Qianqian on his way when he heard the woman's voice of surprise.
"flourishing?"
Sun Qianqian, who was in despair, was stunned when he heard this, and looked for his voice. When he saw the woman, he shouted happily.
"Tang Xiaoqing, why are you here?"
The woman came over happily, took Sun Qianqian's hand and said.
"My father is a hunter. There is a small house here where my father temporarily stayed. I came here to clean it up. But what are you doing here in this deep mountain and old forest?"
When asked about this matter, Sun Qianqian immediately felt sad and started sobbing.
Tang Xiaoqing didn't know why and immediately asked: "Qianqian, what's wrong with you?"
Sun Qianqian, who was simple and without any scheming, immediately told all her experiences, which made Tang Xiaoqing sigh in despair.
"I didn't expect that the young master would do such an inhumane thing. He will definitely die a bad death in the future!"
Tang Xiaoqing cursed.
Originally thinking it was just old friends meeting to catch up on old times, Lin Xiaodong didn't pay much attention to it. But now he immediately became alert after hearing Tang Xiaoqing's words and asked in a deep voice.
"Girl, your name is Master Li Wei, does that mean you are from the Li Wei family?"
Tang Xiaoqing nodded without hesitation.
"Because my family was poor, I went to work as a maid in the Li family when I was very young."
Lin Xiaodong nodded and said nothing more.
Sun Qianqian and Tang Xiaoqing talked for a while. Lin Xiaodong saw that it was getting late and Sun Qianqian was almost rested, so he spoke out.
"Qianqian, it's time for us to hurry up. We must find a safe place to rest before dark, otherwise it may be dangerous at night."
Sun Qianqian looked sad, nodded, stood up and prepared to leave.
At this time, Tang Xiaoqing took Sun Qianqian's hand and said with a smile: "Why are you on your way? You can just go to the small house where my father used to hunt."
Before Sun Qianqian could speak, Lin Xiaodong refused first and said: "Thank you for your kindness. Let's go find a suitable place by ourselves and won't disturb you."
Just kidding, this Tang Xiaoqing is a maid of the Li family. If he went back and revealed their whereabouts to Li Wei, wouldn't he put them in danger?
Tang Xiaoqing was not as innocent as Sun Qianqian. She immediately understood Lin Xiaodong's concerns and said to Sun Qianqian with a smile: "You are quite cautious as a big brother."
Sun Qianqian didn't know why, so Tang Xiaoqing didn't explain it to him, but told Lin Xiaodong.
"Don't worry, Sun Qianqian has saved my life, how can I harm her?
Besides, I know the deeds of Li Wei in the Li family, so how could I do such a thing to help others commit evil?"
Although Sun Qianqian was simple, she was not stupid. After listening to Tang Xiaoqing's words, she understood Lin Xiaodong's worries and said softly.
"Qing'er and I are good sisters, there's no way she can harm me."
Lin Xiaodong sighed secretly, what a simple and lovely girl.
"Forget it. If the Li family catches up, we will be in trouble. It's safer to run as far away as possible."
Lin Xiaodong found an excuse to excuse himself.
Tang Xiaoqing smiled and said.
"You are really careful. Even if it takes me an hour to get back to my house from now on, it will already be dark.
After daybreak, I spent half a day returning to the Li family to report the matter. The Li family then said they would spend half a day coming here to find you, and one day has passed.
What if you spend the night at my father's little house tonight?"
I have to say that Tang Xiaoqing's analysis was spot on. Even if she ran back overnight to report the situation, it would be noon before the Li family found this place. At least it would be absolutely safe tonight.
As for traveling all night in these deep mountains and old forests, Tang Xiaoqing, a mere mortal, probably wouldn't have the guts.
"Okay, thank you, Miss Tang."
Lin Xiaodong accepted Tang Xiaoqing's proposal.
Tang Xiaoqing smiled and nodded and said, "Actually, you can hide in that house and go back when the incident is over."
