Chapter 1049: Chapter 1054 Continue to Consume
Tie Chengxin clenched his fist and said, "I’m going to ask those bastards what kind of good deeds they’ve done!"
Zhang Ziwen was traveling to study with a scholar from the next village, and he kept saying not to leave him behind, so he probably can’t get away from that group of people.
"Tie Brother, calm down a bit, they won’t tell the truth even if you go there, and they might even bite back."
Qiao Duo’er advised.
Confronting them in such an agitated state could easily lead to a misunderstanding.
Moreover, it’s not against the law to run away at the sight of mountain bandits, it’s just unethical. What can we really do to them?
Tie Niu nodded, "Duo’er is right, keep calm, and see what your sister thinks."
"I’ll take care of him first, if he can get better, that’s stronger than anything," said the oldest Daughter firmly.
She had been longing for him and had finally waited for his return; how could she bear to leave him?
"Let’s just keep this debt in mind. Just say the word, and your big brother and second brother will immediately bring those people back," Tie Chengxin said, thumping his chest.
Now that Zhang Ziwen was settled for the moment, Qiao Duo’er went back home, as there were two children at home relying on her for food.
She hurried home as fast as she could, but it was still a little late.
"These kids are so picky, they refused to drink anyone else’s milk, so I had Granny Su cook some rice paste for them, and that at least fooled them," Tan Zhenghong said, expressing his exhaustion.
It’s good that his wife has enough breastmilk; otherwise, what would he do with these two?
Lu Kejun gave a thumbs up, "That’s what good children do, no matter how tasty someone else’s milk is, it’s not their own mother’s."
"But it’s wearing out their own mother. The rice paste won’t last long; I’ll go check on them," Qiao Duo apologized.
She really wanted to stay with Lu Kejun, but the twins wouldn’t allow it.
"Go ahead, I have some things to handle myself."
After saying that, Lu Kejun headed into his own room.
By now, nine people were already waiting inside the house.
"Miss, Young Master Luo has vanished as if he’s evaporated from the face of the Earth; we’ve turned White Stone County upside down and found no sign of him."
"We searched the surrounding villages, too, and saw no trace of him."
That is to say, they had been shaken off again, a truly depressing subject.
Lu Kejun leaned against the sofa and, after a while, finally said, "Take a break for the next few days; there’s no need to look for that bastard for a while."
There’s no need to think about it; Luo Qingfeng must have gone into hiding, and he’s hiding very well at that.
Having confronted each other so many times, it’s normal that Luo Qingfeng’s skills have improved.
It might be better to let him lower his guard and wait for him to come to them.
It’s said that Luo Qingfeng is very fond of Duo’er’s twins; she doesn’t believe he won’t come to see the babies.
"Miss, we must stay nearby to protect your safety."
The Shadow Guard turned down the holiday without hesitation.
Their reason for living is to protect Lu Kejun; if anything happens to her, they wouldn’t be able to clear their guilt even in death.
Lu Kejun waved her hand, "What danger could I possibly be in in this mountain village? This is an order; whoever disobeys won’t be allowed to stay by my side."
These people were given to her by her father, but now that they were hers, they had to remember that she was their only master.
No matter what she said, they had only to obey.
The Shadow Guards looked at each other and then respectfully bowed, "Yes!"
Lu Kejun was left alone in the house, her eyes narrowing slightly.
In her life, there had never been anything she wanted that she hadn’t obtained; Luo Qingfeng would be no different.
After all, she was only fifteen, with at least another thirty years to live, plenty of time to entangle with Luo Qingfeng.
