Chen Zhizhou did not indulge in anger and immediately ordered Xuanfeng to inform Chen's father.

Although Chen's father is now an official in the capital, he still has some status in Huaishui Township, and many of his fellow villagers have benefited from him.

The two of them quickly rushed to the Chen family's old house. Seeing that he was in a bad mood, Gu Qing did not say anything.

Thinking quickly in my mind.

If everyone knew about the impending flood, the Third House would probably not dare to make any moves. As for the Second House...

Could it be that the second wife was behind Chen Zhizhou’s injury and disappearance?

Thinking of this, Gu Qing frowned. Seeing that she was in a worse mood than himself, Chen Zhizhou tried to comfort her, saying, "Don't be afraid. I will protect you."

"Thanks to you today, I was able to detect the change in water level in time, and we still had time to evacuate."

Gu Qing couldn't deny it.

The Chen family lives in a higher place and should not be flooded, but the people living in lower places will suffer.

She calmed down, held Chen Zhizhou's hand, and said firmly, "I want you to promise me one thing: you can't leave me at any time."

Even if she still couldn't defend herself against the villain's actions this time, she still wanted to be with Chen Zhizhou and experience the suffering he had endured so that she could love him better.

Chen Zhizhou interlocked his fingers with hers and gave Gu Qing a reassuring look. "Okay, but if there really is an emergency, I still need..."

Gu Qing placed her index finger in front of his mouth, her eyes determined: "Even in times of crisis, you can't abandon me."

"Why?"

Chen Zhizhou felt that something was wrong with Gu Qing, as if he was worried about something.
