Su Changsheng reacted with fury.

He roared, "Chase him! Catch him! I'll tear him to pieces!"

Su Changsheng was so ashamed and angry that his face turned red. He chased after Luo Laowu without any regard for the consequences, but he was already struggling to walk, and he tripped and fell after only a few steps, swallowing a mouthful of mud!

How could he not have imagined that Luo Laowu would dare to play tricks on him on this rugged mountain road?

For so many days, Luo Laowu has been putting on an act; he's been playing a trick on him.

Su Changsheng gritted his teeth in hatred.

Luo Laowu is unaffected in such a place, but others are not.

They chased for a short while before losing sight of Luo Laowu and had no choice but to return dejectedly.

Su Chang was furious and the cold wind was blowing on him. Suddenly, he felt a headache. He couldn't calm down the anger in his chest and he fainted from anger.

After being carried back to the inn and seen a doctor, Su Changsheng smashed things and cursed.

None of the servants dared to utter a sound.

Su Changsheng reported Luo Laowu's betrayal to the authorities and also sent him a portrait. As a result, Luo Laowu was put on the wanted list. If he showed his face and was caught, he would be sent back to Su Changsheng's side.

After a month of waiting, he got nothing in the end. Su Chang was furious, but he was helpless because he couldn't find anyone.

Su Changsheng began to regret it. If only he hadn't had such thoughts on the first day, he would have gone home long ago, and everything would have gone smoothly.

But now...

Su Changsheng felt a headache coming on at the thought of going back.

Just two days into our return journey, we encountered another snowstorm that blocked the mountain passes!

Su Changsheng was shocked and anxious: "Why is it snowing? It's only the tenth day of the eleventh lunar month!"

The attendant went to inquire and returned to report: "Second Master, the temperature here has been abnormal since the beginning of winter. It is common for heavy snow to block the mountains. It can take two or three days if it is fast, or ten days or half a month if it is slow."

Su Changsheng was so angry that he felt dizzy. The colder the weather got, the more uncomfortable he felt. No matter how many layers he wore, he was still not warm, and his head was also aching.

One wrong step leads to another!

I don't know how Su Changshui will look down on me when I get back!

Thinking of all this, Su Changsheng had a splitting headache. He quickly pressed his hand to his head and said, "Tell them to clean the road quickly. I, I'll pay for it!"

The road was icy, the carriage wheels couldn't go up, and the horses' hooves slipped.

Su Changsheng had no choice but to stay nearby temporarily, but because he was rich, and the farmers were also rich, an ordinary house cost two hundred coins a night. They also helped Su Changsheng clean the road surface, earning him forty coins a day.

Su Changsheng was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he was helpless.

...

On the fifth day of the eleventh month, Zhanqi and Zhanyang returned to Liuzhou City and settled Baihua and Luogen in the village.

Zhan Qi and Zhan Yang then went into the city.

This time, Zhan Qi went to see Qin Shi, while Zhan Yang went to the Su residence to see Qin Jin'an.

Qin Jin'an had been eating and drinking well at the Su residence for the past month, and his complexion had improved considerably.

Her little face was also rosy.

Zhan Yang's monkey arrived first. Qin Jin'an took a liking to the unfamiliar little monkey and asked, "Little monkey, would you like some jerky?"

Zhan Yang's little monkey resembled a half-grown puppy. It nodded as it approached Qin Jin'an. They don't usually show affection to strangers, but it felt comfortable with Qin Jin'an's warmth, so it became close to him.

I ate the dried meat she gave me.

Qin Jin'an hugged the monkey and patted it: "Little monkey, you're so cute."

"Woof woof—"

Master, look at me, look at me—

The white-spotted monkey barked twice nearby. "Why is there another monkey?"

The green snake watched from the roof beam, flicking its tongue.

Qin Jin'an was overjoyed as he stroked the white dots and the little monkey.

"Fish Treasure".

Zhan Yang called out from outside. He looked through the crack in the door and saw that everyone's eyes were wide open. This was too amazing.

Why is his pet monkey so good to Qin Jin'an?

It wasn't even this gentle and obedient in front of him!

Qin Jin'an looked over and smiled at Zhan Yang: "Brother, would you like some dried meat?"

Looking at her sweet smile, Zhan Yang subconsciously slowed his steps. He nodded and took the food, then subconsciously started eating. He said, "Thank you. My second uncle asked me to come and tell you that we did very well and smoothly. My second uncle went to discuss the next steps with your mother. I came to see you."

"You look much better than last time."

Zhan Yang recalled their last meeting. At that time, Qin Jin'an was thin and didn't look well, but now his face looked a bit fuller.

Seeing her healthier, Zhan Yang felt happy.

No wonder the monkey liked her; he felt happy and joyful just looking at her.

"Yes, I've been eating well and taking good care of myself, and I'm happy every day."

Qin Jin'an held the little monkey's hand and looked at its fingers, then stretched out his own fingers and compared them with the little monkey's.

Zhan Yang couldn't help but laugh at her childish appearance.

"Are you going home soon?"

Zhan Yang asked.

Qin Jin'an nodded, "Soon, soon, she'll be home."

"Then I'll come see you again next time, goodbye, Fish Baby."

Zhan Yang smiled slightly at Qin Jin'an, then reached out and picked up the reluctant little monkey. He glanced back at Qin Jin'an before leaving.

Bai Diandian seized the opportunity and snuggled into Qin Jin'an's arms.

Qin Jin'an waved his little hand, saying goodbye to his new friend.

"Dian Dian, it's time for bed."

"Don't talk, Xiaoqing is asleep, we should go to sleep too."

Qin Jin'an pinched Bai Diandian's mouth as he lay down.

Bai Diandian looked at Qin Jin'an, then let out a soft "woo" and leaned against her.

The green snake on the roof beam hissed twice and then completely disappeared into the shadows.

...

When Zhanqi arrived in the village, it was already late at night. This address was given to him by the Qin family.

We couldn't find Qin Shi in the city. If she didn't live in the city, then she must be in the village.

Zhan Qi knocked on the door, and soon a steady male voice rang out: "Who is it?"

Zhan Qi frowned slightly.

The door opened, and a tall man looked at him warily: "Who are you looking for?"

Qin Yulin looked Zhan Qi up and down. He had never seen him before. It was late at night, and he was sure he would be on guard if a stranger suddenly appeared.

"I am Zhan Qi. I am here to see Miss Qin. Please tell her that it is a bit late today, but I have something important to discuss with her."

Zhan Qi politely cupped his hands in greeting and then explained his purpose.

Qin Yulin glanced at Zhan Qi, nodded, and said, "Come inside first, I'll call my father and the others."

After Qin Yulin finished speaking, he turned around and went to knock on the Qin family's door.

He didn't notice that Zhan Qi's expression softened.

It turned out they were the Qin brothers.

Soon after Qin Yulin knocked on the door and called out "Little Sister," Zhan Qi's guess was confirmed.

Qin Tianhai got up when he heard the commotion.

After everyone was seated in the main hall, Zhang went to make tea.

Zhanqi sat in the main hall and slowly recounted his experiences along the way.

He also mentioned his plans after taking Logan in.

Qin Tianhai listened quietly, and only after he finished did he speak: "You did the right thing."

Since they couldn't communicate verbally and couldn't take Luo Laowu with them, bringing a member of the Luo clan with them was the right thing to do; language barriers could be overcome.
