Chapter 729 Marriage

After all, even Meng Pei himself was confused. Even though he trusted his friends, he was very cautious when it came to Song Xin and dared not make any guesses so as not to harm her.

Until he saw that Song Xin had not woken up and that she was injured, he was worried that something had happened to her, so he secretly went to find a doctor.

Then he learned that Song Xin was pregnant.

Meng Pei felt completely numb. Song Xin had actually gotten married! He felt extremely sad, but thinking back, she was already seventeen years old, so getting married didn't seem surprising.

Despite feeling unwell, Meng Pei still took good care of her.

When Song Xin woke up, he asked her for her home address so he could take her home.

But Song Xin dared not go back. Whether she went back to the Song family or that small courtyard, it would be tantamount to sending herself to her death.

She refused to leave, and was even afraid of the soldiers outside who were searching for the assassins from the Liu residence. She even showed signs of miscarriage.

Meng Pei was worried that something might happen to her, so he didn't ask any more questions and just kept taking care of her.

He originally planned to return to the escort agency after resting for two days, but Song Xin's condition was clearly not suitable for leaving. Moreover, she didn't have a registered residence, and the city was cracking down hard; they might get arrested if they set off.

So Meng Pei sent the others from the escort agency back first, while he stayed behind.

This stay lasted for more than half a month.

The assassins in the capital have either been captured, escaped, or died; things should be calming down by now.

Meng Pei gradually learned about some of Song Xin's experiences. He felt a deep hatred for the person who had bullied Song Xin, but he didn't know who that person was.

Thinking that Song Xin had escaped from the Liu residence, he guessed that the man might be that lecherous fellow from the Liu family. It was a pity that the man had died in the assassination attempt that day; he got off easy.

The most urgent task now is to help Song Xin leave the capital.

Over the years, he has traveled all over the country and has built up a considerable network of connections. He is loyal and knows how to get along with people, so it wouldn't be impossible for him to obtain a fake household registration. Coincidentally, there was a disaster in a certain area not long ago, and many displaced people lost their household registrations and needed to reissue them.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Meng Pei rode quickly out of the city to the disaster-stricken town, gave Song Xin a new identity, and then took her away from the capital.

Having escaped, Song Xin felt a huge sense of relief.

But there's still one problem... the baby in her belly...

Meng Pei was naturally worried about her finding a place to live alone, giving birth and raising the child by herself. If she encountered any danger, he wouldn't be able to help her from afar.

Moreover, Meng Pei harbored his own hidden thoughts.

After a long talk with Song Xin, they got married.

As soon as the two returned home, they began preparing for their wedding.

Meng Pei's parents are both deceased; his father passed away three years ago, and his mourning period just ended four months ago.

His uncles and elders had already begun looking for suitable girls for him, but who knew he would bring one back himself. Before his uncles and elders could even offer their opinions, Meng Pei had already sent people to buy the wedding preparations.

The uncles and elders wanted to try to persuade him, but they couldn't argue with Meng Pei, who was already the head of the escort agency. Over the years, he had developed an absolute authority and held a unique position within the agency.

Moreover, Meng Pei himself said that in another half month, he would be transporting a batch of goods to the south, and it would probably take three to five months to return. If they didn't get married now, they would have to wait at least another six months.

He didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble.

Looking at Song Xin's thin but beautiful appearance, her uncles and aunts felt that there was some truth to it.
