Lin Mengya originally wanted to ask him what happened at the banquet, but looking at his appearance, she knew that this man was probably useless today.
But as soon as someone sent Li Ao back to the room, Long Tianyu felt something and blocked her behind him.
"What's wrong?"
The tacit understanding between the couple made her immediately feel something strange about Long Tianyu.
She asked him with her eyes, but all she saw was that the man's eyes suddenly became very sharp.
Soon, there were sounds of fighting outside.
Ever since she was kidnapped by Mr. Gan Er last time, Yu has paid more attention to her safety.
The sound didn't last long before someone came back to report it.
"Your Highness, Madam, someone just wanted to do harm to Master Li, but we have stopped him. Mr. Qing has already gone after him."
Upon hearing this, Lin Mengya couldn't help but frown slightly.
She was assured of Qinghu's abilities.
But this was the territory of the Sheng family, and she was only afraid that Qinghu would encounter some danger because he was unfamiliar with the place.
Fortunately, Long Tianyu also thought of this and immediately ordered: "Let people who are familiar with this place assist. Remember, try not to disturb other people."
"yes."
After everything was arranged, Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu also arrived at Li Ao's house.
At this moment, after such a fright, this man was mostly awake from the wine.
Fortunately, the people arranged by Long Tianyu responded quickly, otherwise all they would see now is a corpse.
Seeing them coming, Li Ao wanted to stand up to greet them, but unfortunately he pulled the wounds on his body and almost fell down.
"Okay, just sit down. Where are you injured? How are your injuries now?"
Li Ao shook his head with a pale face.
"It's nothing serious, just a little scratch on the skin."
He was covering his right arm, his expression still a little frightened.
At that time, he happened to be thirsty and wanted to get up to get a glass of water.
Unexpectedly, just as he stood up, a fatal dagger stabbed him. If he hadn't reacted quickly, his chest would have been cut open!
Later, the guards outside heard the commotion and rushed in. The killer simply abandoned him and jumped out of the window and ran away.
Lin Mengya patted his shoulder to comfort him.
"Don't be afraid. We are here and nothing will happen to you."
Li Ao calmed down and asked, "Do you two know who did it?"
He thought he was in a daze. He only remembered the man's neat movements and his ability to run away with ease.
Long Tianyu thought for a while and then said: "My people haven't caught up with him yet, but it seems that he should be a professional killer, not like a dead soldier raised by the family."
Although killers and death warriors both kill people for their families, their behavior is completely different.
Killers kill people just to complete their employer's tasks. Even if they cannot complete the task, they will mostly choose to save their lives and then look for the right opportunity to act.
But the dead soldiers are different. They are already a tool for the master.
As tools, they are not afraid of death. Once someone hinders them, they will do everything they can to complete the mission of their master, even if it costs their own lives.
Li Ao's face became even more ugly.
"It's really hard for them to be willing to spend so much effort on me. I really want to know what I did to make them hate me so much!"
Lin Mengya also wanted to know.
However, Qinghu's tracking has not yet yielded any results, so they can only ask someone to bandage Li Ao first, and then send many more people to protect their safety.
It wasn't until dawn that Qinghu quietly returned to the inn.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu, who had barely slept all night, were still waiting for news about him.
"I chased the person to the old house of the Sheng family, and then the person disappeared. I led the person to search for several times, but no one was found. It seems that the killer should have something to do with the Sheng family."
The news brought by Qinghu surprised Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu.
"Did you read that right? People really entered the Sheng family?" Lin Mengya asked.
Qinghu looked slightly cold.
"I was absolutely right."
Although this killer came for Li Ao, who can guarantee that the killer's target next time will not be his little girl
Also a former killer, Qinghu knew these people's methods very well.
The thought of someone daring to touch his people made Qinghu very eager to return to the world and teach these bastards how to behave!
"Sheng family, why do you want to kill Li Ao?"
Lin Mengya couldn't figure it out.
On the surface, the Li family and the Sheng family have no interest at all.
What's more, Li Ao didn't receive any special attention from the Sheng family at today's banquet.
And if the Sheng family really wanted Li Ao's life, there was no need to let the killer come.
This is their territory, and if they want someone to die alone, there are thousands of ways.
"Although the killer has entered the Sheng family, it does not mean that the person who hired him is the Sheng family."
Long Tianyu already had his own guess.
Lin Mengya's mind changed after hearing what he said.
"That's right. But now is not the time to alert the enemy. Today is a good day for the Sheng family to recruit a son-in-law. Let's get over this first."
Not long after Qinghu came back, someone started cleaning the street.
Mr. Tu wanted to marry into the Sheng family, so the Sheng family gave a grander ceremony than ordinary weddings for their daughters.
Starting early in the morning, someone poured water soaked in various spices on the streets.
Several main streets are full of fragrance.
Even though the formal wedding ceremony was in the evening, the Sheng family was so wealthy that it amazed many families.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu had nothing to be nervous about. The couple slept soundly until noon before getting up to freshen up.
Cairu's skillful hands made her look elegant and decent.
Apart from a purple and gold hair crown, she wore no other accessories.
After all, tonight's bride is a girl from the Sheng family. As a guest, she shouldn't overdo it.
As soon as she went out, she saw the man sitting at the door waiting for her.
The man was dressed similarly to her, and had no other modifications except for a simple yet solemn hair crown.
Long Tianyu looked at his wife closely.
"My wife is indeed the most beautiful." He praised sincerely.
Even though they were already an "old husband and wife", Lin Mengya couldn't help but feel a little happy.
However, he said stiffly: "Okay, I'm not the one getting married today. Why do I want to look so good? Let's go now?"
Long Tianyu nodded and held her hand.
"Please, ma'am."
On the street, the guests all came out of their respective residences and walked towards the Sheng Mansion in the center.
At this time, the bride's sedan chair was parading through several main streets in the city.
Li Ao was just a little frightened last night. When he woke up and drank the tranquilizing medicine Lin Mengya prepared for him, his expression returned to normal.
Looking at the lights and colorful decorations on the street, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
When will he get a wife
"You don't have to worry when you get to Sheng's house later.
, we will be by your side at all times and will not let those people take advantage of you. "
Next to him, a gentle and comforting voice came.
Li Ao looked at the pair. Although he nodded, he felt even more envious.
At home, I want to watch Li Wushuang and his wife flirting with each other, and when I go out, I want to watch this couple being inseparable.
Where is his wife? Where are you now
But before he could finish his emotion, he heard someone on the street exclaim.
"The bride is here!"
Everyone looked up subconsciously.
I saw a very exquisite and luxurious sedan slowly coming from the corner of the street.
Everyone stopped involuntarily and looked on curiously.
Miss Sheng's pomp and circumstance is rare even outside.
Naturally, everyone is curious about how beautiful the young lady of the Sheng family is, and how handsome the uncle of the Sheng family is.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu had met Mr. Tu.
Although his complexion was not very good, his purple wedding dress made him look more like a gentleman.
Since he is the groom's official, this should be his proudest moment.
But Lin Mengya felt that the groom seemed a little unhappy.
And for some reason, he actually looked in their direction several times.
She subconsciously looked at the person next to her.
Apart from his own men and Qing Hu, the only one was Li Ao.
Lin Mengya poked Li Ao, who looked confused, and asked in a low voice: "Do you know this groom too?"
Li Ao shook his head.
"Never seen it before."
This is strange.
Since I have never seen it before, who is Mr. Tu looking at
Could it be that the two of them were afraid that their dark history of almost becoming a woman would be exposed by them
But this matter has been blocked by the Gan family.
They will never tell anyone.
According to Mr. Gan Er, after Mr. Tu wakes up, there is a high probability that he will not remember what happened.
It's really weird. Why is this Mr. Tu
However, the sedan chair and the groom had already passed by, and Lin Mengya did not continue to worry about this matter, but went to Sheng Mansion with the others.
Because today is a formal wedding, there are more than double the number of guests than the previous day.
They didn't get special invitations, they just queued up to get in.
Fortunately, they came out not too late, and there were only three or four families in front of them.
While they were waiting peacefully, several people came in from outside.
"This must be the famous head of the Gong family, right? It's such a pleasure to meet you. My name is Chen Zixuan. I felt destined to meet the head of the Gong family today. I wonder if I can have the honor of inviting you to come in with me."
The speaker was a handsome young man from an aristocratic family.
It was a pity that Lin Mengya was not interested in him and refused directly.
"No need, thank you sir for your kindness."
But Chen Zixuan was not discouraged.
His eyes wandered around Lin Mengya's body in a vague way, and he felt more and more in his heart that it was a pity that such a stunning beauty should be paired with a cripple.
Therefore, he still maintained his elegant demeanor and said, "Master Gong, don't be too wary of me, I really just have good intentions. Besides, a beauty like you should receive preferential treatment. Instead of standing here, Exposed to the wind and sun.”
Lin Mengya looked at the sun that was already going down.
I thought to myself that this guy's pick-up skills are terrible.
