Xu Xiangdong was still preoccupied with his own little thoughts and didn't notice that Tao Wenwen had stopped. He lowered his head and just kept walking forward.

Tao Wenwen glanced at Xu Xiangdong, whose soul had wandered off to who knows where, and pulled him up.

Xu Xiangdong's heart was already pounding when she suddenly grabbed his hand.

He didn't know what Tao Wenwen was going to do. He just felt that Tao Wenwen's hand holding his was thin, tender, soft and small. It seemed that she was not holding his hand, but his heart that was beating wildly.

He suddenly became even more panicked, his face almost hot to the point of breathing.

"You...you..." Xu Xiangdong seemed to have lost his tongue and could not speak clearly.

Tao Wenwen shushed him, then pointed at the figures at the intersection and said in a low voice, "Those are the five bad guys who were looking for trouble during the day."

Xu Xiangdong was stunned for a moment, but then he realized that she was holding his hand just to remind him.

He breathed a sigh of relief and laughed to himself, thinking that he had been overthinking it. But after laughing, his mood suddenly became serious again.

His first thought was that he had confronted the five bad guys during the day, and if they discovered him and Tao Wenwen, they would definitely not let them go.

He was a grown man, so he got beaten, but a girl as delicate as Tao Wenwen would not be able to bear it. If those bad guys had any more evil intentions...

Xu Xiangdong felt a chill in his heart.

He was frightened by his own thoughts and didn't dare to think any further. He said, "Let's go back. I'll take you home after they leave!"

"Wait a little longer and see what they want to do!" Tao Wenwen thought of Gao Yue who was still recuperating in her room. If she could find out what these people wanted to do, it would definitely be helpful to Gao Yue.

When Gao Yue returns to the Gao family, she will have a place in the medical field.

After Tao Wenwen made her plans happily in her heart, she walked out with firm feet.

Since she didn't leave, Xu Xiangdong didn't dare to walk alone, so he had to continue following her.

The five men at the intersection cursed, "Damn it, why did the clue disappear? How could Gao Yue just disappear out of thin air?"

"Back to the Gao family?"

"Most likely dead!"

As they speculated, the man who was cursing asked again, "Did the Tao family see it?"

Speaking of the Tao family, the person in charge of the inspection was full of gusto. "The remaining mother and daughter, although they can treat illnesses, are in a mess. They found a new man, their daughter is stupid, and they have a blind son. They are busy getting married and sleeping on the kang, but they have no time to save Gao Yue."

"This kid is injured. The wound is so big, he might not survive even if someone tries to save him!"

"Go back, I can report back."

The five of them pushed each other and walked arm in arm towards the village entrance.

Tao Wenwen hid himself in the shadows of the night and followed them silently all the way. When he was about to leave the village, the person in front suddenly spoke again, "Oh!"

It was Xu Xiangdong's first time to follow someone, and he was already nervous. When the person in front of him suddenly spoke, he was startled, thinking that he was discovered. He grabbed Tao Wenwen's hand and rushed into the cornfield next to him.

With a swish sound, the corn leaves rustled.

The five people who were about to leave stopped and looked back in their direction.

Xu Xiangdong held his breath, tensed his body, and even his toes were bent.

"wild**?"

"Who knows? I'm still a wild woman!"

"It's so scary to come out in the middle of the night. It's so annoying!"

"Go and take a look?"

"Look at shit! I also want to go home and have a warm meal on the warm bed with my wife. There's not even a fart left, and I still have to eat grass!"

The five people continued walking, cursing and swearing.

Tao Wenwen, covered in grass debris, emerged from the cornfield with a pah sound.

Xu Xiangdong followed behind, knowing that he was too nervous and felt embarrassed.

"I, I..." He scratched his head, not knowing what to say to break the awkwardness of the moment.

Tao Wenwen shook off the grass debris on her body and said, "Let's go."

The next second after they turned and left, another figure stood up in the dark bushes on the other side.

Shadow watched them go away, and his drooping shoulders suddenly straightened up, and he ran back home proudly and excitedly.
