"If you don't care, I will!"
After saying this, Guan Ning turned and left. The young man's friendship was vividly displayed, which formed a sharp contrast with Pei Xingwen's pedantic and old-fashioned character.
This also deeply hurt Pei Xingwen. He shouted angrily: "Stop! What did you say?"
"Can you say that again?"
"You bastard, do you really think I dare not touch you?"
"Guan family kid, you are not worth planning for, not worth planning for!"
"..."
Guan Ning didn't care about his angry outburst at all and left quickly.
It was impossible to persuade Pei Xingwen, so this path became empty talk and he could only rely on himself.
Return to Guan Mansion.
The room was in a mess, with obvious signs of a fight, and even the door was broken. This made Guan Ning, who was in a heavy mood, look very nervous and rushed in.
"what happened?"
"Where's the lady?" he shouted anxiously.
"Guan Ning!" someone exclaimed and rushed over regardless of everything.
boom!
Qin Yao hugged Guan Ning tightly. Guan Ning let out a long breath and also hugged Qin Yao tightly, smelling the fragrance of her hair and kissing her forehead.
"it's okay no problem."
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have left."
The two hugged each other for a long time before slowly letting go. The people from Yipintang also slowly gathered around, and saw that some of them had some minor injuries on their bodies.
"What happened just now?" Guan Ning's face was cold.
"Sir, a group of masked men just broke into the mansion and wanted to take the lady away, so we were forced to take action and had a fierce battle with them."
"These people are well-trained and must be veterans of killing people."
"In the end, we repelled them, but our home became like this, and we were exposed." Yu Dilong's face looked unhappy. There has been no peace since the day after Zhao Tai came back.
"Well-trained, and have killed people?" Guan Ning narrowed his eyes and instantly thought of the group of people Zhao Tai brought back, all of whom were soldiers returning from the border.
"How many have come?"
"Not many, just twelve." Yu Dilong said.
Guan Ning's face turned slightly cold, and he said quietly, "This is Zhao Tai's attempt to test the Guan family. If we don't have the ability to resist, they might just turn the fake into real."
Upon hearing this, Yu Dilong and others' expressions became even uglier.
"If our strength is exposed, won't we be in a more passive position?"
Guan Ning took a deep breath, suppressing his inner anger, knowing that now was not the time to fight back: "It's already been exposed, there's no point in thinking about it anymore."
"Did you guys use the Zhuge Crossbow?"
"Your Highness, no, they are no match for us, and we dare not use that thing carelessly in the capital. If the court finds out, we will be in even bigger trouble." Yu Dilong said.
Guan Ning nodded: "Okay, I understand. Continue to strengthen security."
"Yes!"
"..."
Afterwards, Guan Ning accompanied Qin Yao back to the room and comforted her for a while.
Fortunately, Qin Yao had a strong mental state and came to her senses soon. She was so sensitive just now because she was worried that Guan Ning might be attacked outside.
Late at night, the moon is high in the sky and insects are chirping.
The entire Guan Mansion fell into absolute silence, but the security level was definitely the strongest in history. Including Shengqi and Yu Dilong, a total of 26 people came back and guarded the place strictly.
It can be said that not even a fly can fly in.
In the side room, Guan Ning hugged Qin Yao, put one hand on the back of his head, and looked at the bright moon shining through the windowsill, wondering what he was thinking.
Suddenly, Qin Yao opened her eyes, bright as gems.
"Master."
"Ok?"
"You haven't slept yet?" Guan Ning looked down.
"Aren't you asleep either? You've been in a daze and distracted since you came back. Is there something on your mind?" Qin Yao adjusted her sleeping position and looked at him.
Guan Ning touched her snow-white shoulders: "It's okay."
"you're lying."
"Don't be sad. You've been snoring for a long time. I heard that the emperor betrothed the princess to Zhao Tai's adopted son today?" Qin Yao frowned.
Guan Ning was stunned for a moment: "You know?"
"I'm not deaf. You went out without eating this morning, so I asked Yu Dilong about it." Qin Yao said.
"Ok."
Guan Ning had no choice but to tell her everything, including the fact that Du Peng came to block the door and spread rumors early in the morning.
The more Qin Yao listened, the more frightened she became, and the more uneasy her pretty face became.
