Suddenly, Lin Yubai ran out. He wanted to tell Shen Fengming the news and ask him to rescue Jiang Yunzhu as soon as possible.
"Evil son, where are you going? Stop him quickly." Master Lin Er shouted.
Madam Lin was busy signaling to the servants to let Lin Yubai go. Master Lin was obviously angry, so it was better to wait until he calmed down before talking.
The next day, Lin Yubai was still on his way to Wuling County.
A shadow suddenly entered Jiang Yunzhu's house.
At this time, Shen Fengming was sitting in the study. These two days, perhaps because Jiang Yunzhu was away, he always felt uneasy.
"What's going on?" he asked when he noticed someone outside.
The man knelt down hurriedly and told the story of Jiang Yunzhu being kidnapped.
The night before yesterday, the secret guards escorted Jiang Yunzhu all the way into the Lin family and then stood guard outside.
The Qilin Guard has a rule that no one is allowed to enter the residence of an official without a reason or permission. This rule was set by Emperor Yuanmu more than 70 years ago after all the officials of the court made direct appeals to the emperor after a trial, and it has been used ever since.
Otherwise, the Qilin Guards would be able to enter any place without anyone noticing, and those officials would probably not dare to sleep at night.
This also gave those people an opportunity to take advantage.
"I am incompetent." Shadow knelt on the ground, not daring to look at Shen Fengming's face.
But he could still feel that Shen Fengming was full of anger at this moment, like a fierce knife drawn from its sheath, which made people tremble with fear.
"Have you searched the entire Lin Mansion?" Shen Fengming asked. He himself did not realize how cold his voice sounded at this moment.
Shadow trembled. With this happening, they had a reason to enter the Lin Mansion. However, they searched the entire mansion and could not find Jiang Yunzhu.
"Miss Jiang should have been taken out of the Lin Mansion." he replied.
"Are there any clues?" Shen Fengming asked again.
"The other party seemed to be very aware of our rules and did not leave the house at night. He must have taken Miss Jiang out in the morning when no one noticed and mixed in with the people delivering vegetables or firewood.
We have sent people to check, but they haven’t found it yet.”
When Shen Fengming heard him say that, his eyes were filled with coldness. Could it be that the man was coming for him
As for Jiang Yunzhu… When he thought of her current situation, he felt a little unsteady.
With big strides, he walked outside.
Jiang Yunzhu was drowsy and seemed to hear the sound of weapons colliding and fighting. She opened her eyes with difficulty and found that she seemed to be lying in a carriage.
How could this be? She remembered that she should be in the Lin family villa.
"Miss Jiang, are you okay?" At this time, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and Lin Ting'an came in from outside with a long sword in his hand and asked anxiously.
Why is he here? Jiang Yunzhu felt dizzy and looked at Lin Ting'an with difficulty.
Then her head felt heavy and she fainted again.
In a low wooden house, Jiang Yunzhu was lying on the only broken bed, her long black hair disheveled, her skin smooth and white, her breasts rising and falling slightly with her breathing... She was out of tune with this dilapidated room, yet seemed to evoke the most primitive desire in people's hearts, wanting to imprison her and possess her.
Lin Ting'an stood beside the bed, brushing away the hair on her face bit by bit, revealing her beautiful face.
A few strands of hair flowed along her skin and meandered into her clothes.
Lin Ting'an's hand moved down and stopped at her collar.
The outer coat she was wearing now was his, and underneath she was only wearing a soft white tube-top dress. The dress clung to her body, outlining a captivating curve.
His hand continued to sink.
At this time, Jiang Yunzhu opened her eyes. She saw the scene clearly and immediately sat up and backed away until her back was against the wall. She stopped and looked at Lin Tingan vigilantly.
Lin Ting'an withdrew his hand, "Miss Jiang, don't look at me like that. I have no intention of hurting you."
"What's going on?" Jiang Yunzhu asked, and then she found herself wearing his coat.
She wanted to take it off, but there was nothing in the room, so she could only endure it for the time being.
Lin Ting'an talked about what happened in the past two days.
That day he was out doing some work, but he noticed a group of people moving in a mysterious way. The wind blew up a corner of the carriage curtain, and he happened to see Jiang Yunzhu lying inside, so he followed the group of people.
The group seemed to have a grudge against someone. As they walked, they discussed how to humiliate Jiang Yunzhu and how to arrange her body in a miserable state so as to make the enemy suffer unbearable pain.
As they talked, they became more and more lustful and even wanted to do something indecent to Jiang Yunzhu on the road.
Lin Ting'an took them by surprise, killed two of them and rescued Jiang Yunzhu.
But those people kept chasing them, besieging and hunting them down everywhere.
There was no other choice, he could only take her into the mountains and take shelter in this dilapidated hut.
"Did Miss Jiang or someone related to Miss Jiang offend someone, so that those people would treat you in such a vicious way?" Lin Ting'an asked finally.
Jiang Yunzhu suddenly thought of Shen Fengming. As the owner of a small restaurant, how could she offend anyone? But Shen Fengming was different. Those who wanted to kill him would probably line up around the capital.
So, it was Lin Tingan who saved her
"Thank you, Mr. Lin." Jiang Yunzhu said.
"Miss Jiang, you're welcome. You've been unconscious for so long, are you hungry? I'll get you something to eat." With that, Lin Ting'an went out.
It was quiet outside. Jiang Yunzhu stood up, walked to the door and looked outside.
In the distance were endless mountains, and nearby, there seemed to be a valley with a small river flowing in front of the valley and lush trees beside it. She was in a dilapidated wooden house. It seemed that no one had lived in the house for a long time, and there was dust and spider webs everywhere.
Jiang Yunzhu hesitated whether to escape.
She didn't trust Lin Ting'an, or rather, she didn't trust him completely. He just asked her if she or someone of hers had any enemies. He obviously knew Shen Fengming, so didn't he know that those people must be coming for him? Why did he have to ask her
If she just ran away, where should she run to? She didn't know the way at all. What if she ran into those who were chasing her...
Jiang Yunzhu stood at the door for a long time, then turned around and went back into the house. At least she had to prepare before escaping.
About a quarter of an hour later, Lin Ting'an came back from outside with two wild rabbits in his hands.
After cleaning the rabbit by the stream, he built a bonfire and roasted the rabbit on it.
Soon, the rabbit was roasted. He went into the house and handed the rabbit to Jiang Yunzhu. "Miss Jiang, it's out in the wilderness, so just make do with it."
Jiang Yunzhu was indeed very hungry. She took the rabbit and said softly, "Thank you."
"I told you, Miss Jiang, you don't have to be so polite to me." Lin Ting'an said.
Jiang Yunzhu stopped talking, sat on the bed, and ate the rabbit meat with her hands.
Lin Tingan also took a roasted rabbit and ate it. While eating, he said, "Miss Jiang, I don't seem to have offended you. Why are you always so rude to me?" This was indeed a question in Lin Tingan's mind. He had always wanted to ask Jiang Yunzhu, and now he finally had the chance.
Jiang Yunzhu paused while tearing the rabbit meat. "I just feel that Master Lin has a noble and elegant demeanor. He must be from a famous family. He is not the same as me."
"Oh?" Lin Ting'an's voice was slightly low. "What does Miss Jiang think of Mr. Shen?"
She and he are not the same kind of people, so she and he are the same kind of people
Jiang Yunzhu remained silent, and they were not of the same kind either.
However, in Lin Ting'an's eyes, her silence seemed to reflect her guilty conscience after being questioned.
There was a coldness in Lin Ting'an's eyes. He could give her what Shen Fengming could give her.
After dinner, Lin Tingan boiled some hot water for Jiang Yunzhu to drink, and then he began to clean the room, as if he was going to stay here for a long time.
"Mr. Lin, where is this place? How far is it from Wuling County?" Jiang Yunzhu asked.
"This is the south of Luzhou, very far away from Wuling County." Lin Ting'an said.
"Are there any county towns or villages nearby?" Jiang Yunzhu asked again.
"Those bandits were very fierce and cunning. I saw two villages and towns from a distance along the way, but there were bandits guarding there, so I didn't dare to get close. Later, I simply avoided those villages and towns, and only then did I get here safely.
So I don’t know the situation nearby.” Lin Ting’an said.
"So what do we do next?"
"I left marks along the way, just wait for someone to rescue us."
How long will it take? Jiang Yunzhu wanted to ask, but she felt that Lin Ting'an didn't want to talk about these things anymore, so she swallowed the words in her mouth. I'm afraid that even if she asked, Lin Ting'an would not be able to answer her.
In the evening, Lin Ting'an was going out to find something to eat again, and Jiang Yunzhu said she would go with him.
She wanted to see what was going on around her.
Lin Ting'an didn't refuse.
The two of them left the cabin, one in front and one behind, and walked deeper into the forest. As they walked, Jiang Yunzhu kept an eye on her surroundings.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Jiang Yunzhu only felt that there were dense forests all around her and she could not see the road ahead clearly.
At this moment, Lin Ting'an suddenly stopped her, made a gesture to silence her with his finger, and then pointed forward.
Jiang Yunzhu looked in the direction of his finger and saw a gorgeous tiger prowling there.
The tiger was at least two meters long, with sharp, white teeth and fierce eyes, which made people afraid.
Jiang Yunzhu held her breath, fearing that she would disturb the tiger.
Lin Ting'an pulled her and slowly backed away.
Even after walking a long way away, Jiang Yunzhu was still feeling frightened, but she also secretly noted down the location of the tiger.
This time they walked in the opposite direction and were lucky enough to soon come across a pheasant and a dozen eggs.
After returning to the wooden house, Jiang Yunzhu took a look around and found some simple kitchen utensils here, but no one had used them for a long time.
She didn't want to trouble Lin Ting'an to cook anymore, so she packed up the kitchen utensils.
After a while, Lin Ting'an dealt with the pheasant.
"Let me do it." Jiang Yunzhu reached out to take the pheasant.
"Okay." Lin Ting'an agreed.
Jiang Yunzhu is a great cook and prepared the meal in no time.
Naturally, what she cooks tastes better than what Lin Tingan cooks.
As night fell, everything was quiet and silent, as if they were the only two people in the world.
There was an oil lamp in the wooden house, which emitted a warm yellow light, shining on Jiang Yunzhu's face, making her look even more gentle and charming.
After dinner, the two wanted to rest, but there was only one bed in the wooden house. How could they sleep
Jiang Yunzhu looked at Lin Tingan, only to see him sitting on the edge of the bed with a dim face.
