Xiao Zhan's intention was also very clear. He didn't know the exact relationship between Ye Longlin and Qin Shimeng, so he couldn't just let them take Mu Hanqi away.
He was ordered by the Grand Elder to come, and the Qin family suddenly interfered. What was this all about?
"Go first, we can't let them get to Sister-in-law before us."
Xiao Zhan snorted coldly. On the way to the small town, he called Ning Qi, explained the situation, and Ning Qi didn't hesitate. He immediately said, "Wait, I'll go ask the Grand Elder. The Grand Elder is in a meeting now and will take a while. We absolutely cannot let them take Sister-in-law!"
Ye Longlin was definitely not dead!
This was also what the Grand Elder believed. Therefore, before Ye Longlin returned, Mu Hanqi had to be protected. If anything happened during this period, Ye Longlin would not only be unable to account for it upon his return but would also cause very serious consequences.
No one could withstand the revenge of a Saint Realm expert who had lost everything, not even the Hall of Honor!
To put it bluntly, they were watching in the dark. As long as a high-ranking official appeared, tracking, assassination, and a series of activities would be unstoppable.
Their foundational experts couldn't all be used to protect them, which was simply unrealistic.
Therefore, Mu Hanqi's safety was extremely important!
"Understood!"
Xiao Zhan couldn't care about anything else and quickly entered the small town.
At this moment, Mu Hanqi seemed to have lost everything. She sat in front of the bar with vacant eyes. Even the tourists who came here placed money directly on the bar. When they needed change, the tourists themselves would find it from the pile of money in front of the bar.
With armed soldiers present, they dared not act presumptuously.
Until a woman appeared, all the Dragon Pavilion soldiers instantly tensed up. Twelve Dragon Pavilion soldiers appeared at the entrance, with their firearms aimed at Qin Shimeng!
This scene also caused many tourists to stay away, not knowing what was happening.
Qin Shimeng radiated the cultivation of the Dao Realm, and the Dragon Pavilion soldiers felt a sense of mortal danger, but they still stood at the entrance fearlessly!
"Madam, please leave!"
"People from the capital are prohibited from appearing here, otherwise, we can shoot you directly."
The squad leader spoke directly, his eyes filled with killing intent.
Qin Shimeng pressed her hands together and chuckled lightly, "Don't worry, your boss still has to call me Aunt Qin, and I won't hurt your Sister-in-law."
"Girl, are you willing to come to the capital with me? Don't worry, I won't hurt you. I've met Ye Longlin."
"The medical standards in the capital are definitely better than here. Auntie will take good care of you until Ye Longlin returns."
Qin Shimeng said very kindly, with a doting look in her eyes.
At this moment, Xiao Zhan also rushed over, "Sister-in-law, I'm here on behalf of the Grand Elder to escort you back to the capital."
Mu Hanqi looked at them. She couldn't sense any malice from them. Of course, she wouldn't believe any woman who suddenly appeared.
If she were alone, she would accept death, but she was not alone now. She had a child and would definitely not act recklessly.
"I'm not going anywhere. I hope you won't disturb me. I just want to stay here and wait for Ye Longlin to return."
Mu Hanqi shook her head slightly and said that no matter who came, she was not planning to return to the capital.
Once she returned to the capital, there would surely be many schemes targeting her. Even with protection, she didn't want to deal with such troubles occurring every few days.
"Jingle bell—"
Xiao Zhan's phone rang at this moment.
"Director Ning."
"You guys come back."
There were only four words in the phone call, and these four words made Xiao Zhan understand the meaning behind them.
"I understand."
Since things had reached this point, he wouldn't say any more.
He stepped forward, stood in front of the bar, and gently persuaded, "Sister-in-law, Patriarch Qin and you think differently. The Qin family can protect you. You should be in the capital, not here. If you are willing, you can return to the Commander's Mansion now."
The owner of the Commander's Mansion was still them; it had never changed.
Mu Hanqi shook her head, "I don't want to go. He has too many enemies in the capital. I just want to stay here peacefully, give birth to the child, and wait for him to return. I believe he will definitely return."
"I'm afraid he won't be able to find his way home then, and I'm afraid he won't be able to find me. That's why I'm waiting here."
Xiao Zhan's heart trembled. He was unmarried and couldn't understand this sense of belonging, so he could only remain silent.
Qin Shimeng nodded slightly, "Good child, if Ye Guohui knew he had such a good daughter-in-law, he would be very happy."
"Since you're unwilling to return to the capital, do you mind if I stay here? I want to stay and take care of you. It's really difficult for you to be alone. After the child is born, Auntie can also help you take care of the child."
Looking at the doting and pity in Qin Shimeng's eyes, she looked at Xiao Zhan, who nodded.
Mu Hanqi didn't say much and agreed with a nod.
Then, Qin Shimeng instructed, "From now on, all documents will be delivered once a week, understand?"
"Yes, Patriarch."
"Since I'm here, you can also go back and tell the Grand Elder that with me here, nothing will happen."
Although Xiao Zhan didn't know the identity of the woman in front of him, he still nodded and left.
After all, Ning Qi had already given the order, which meant the Grand Elder agreed. Since the Grand Elder agreed, he had nothing to say and just had to follow the order.
At the same time, at another entrance to the small town.
"Brother Ye, why did your father send you here? And with so many people, it seems like there's nothing fun here?"
"Yeah, Brother Ye, it's so boring here. Why don't you go do your business, and we'll have fun in the city? We can meet you after you're done and then go back to the capital?"
"This seems like a good idea too. I heard that girls in Jiangnan are beautiful. Since we're here, shouldn't we have some fun?"
Ye Moran glanced at them and snorted, "I'm here on business. You insisted on following. Are you blaming me?"
His father had told him to come here to catch someone, a woman, which was why he had rushed over.
Hearing his father say it was a pregnant woman made him even more interested.
"After you catch her, send her back directly. You absolutely must not harm her, understand?"
These were his father's exact words. Although he didn't know why, it was enough to obey.
As for what the family wanted to do, what did it have to do with him?
"I wonder how beautiful this woman is, to make me come and catch her in person!"
