Looking at the beautiful woman opposite him, Ye Yi really didn't know what the relationship was between his general and the woman in front of him.
Why call her "mother"? But in order not to reveal his and his general's identities, he could only say so. After saying that, he pointed to the black-clad man on the ground who had been tied up by him, indicating that he was there to arrest this man.
When Han Yi heard him say that, she realized that he really meant no harm.
After all, based on the techniques he used to deal with the man in black, Han Yi was confident that he could take him down without even getting close. Besides, it seemed that he and the man in black were not working together.
Therefore, he wisely put away the stun gun in his hand. However, when he looked down and saw that Ye Er had already passed out, his expression became somewhat unnatural. He coughed lightly and said something.
"Um, I don't know how he fainted..."
At this moment, Ye Yi also went forward to check on the two of them. He said that Nangong Yuan was unlucky. He had no choice but to be kicked by Ye Er and ended up on the swing set that Han Yi had asked Zhu Zi to make for the two little ones.
Han Yi touched it and, sure enough, another big lump had appeared. Ye Yi naturally noticed Nangong Yuan's abnormality and couldn't help but ask tentatively.
“I didn’t know, this is the young lady’s family member. It was also our fault. In order to catch this thief, we accidentally injured your husband…”
Han Yiyi didn't think much of Ye Yi's words, but she didn't go into detail about Nangong Yuan's background, and simply replied.
"No, he's not my husband, he's a friend..."
Upon hearing Han Yiyi's words, Ye Yi's eyes flickered, but he did not speak again. Instead, he turned around to check on Ye Er's condition.
Seeing that the person was breathing but unconscious, Ye Yi looked puzzled. However, looking at the three people lying on the ground, Ye Yi was at a loss and spoke up.
“Young lady, my companion is currently unconscious, and it is already late. I wonder if it would be convenient for us to stay at your residence for the night…”
Han Yi glanced at the black-clad man who had been tied up not far away. Recalling the way the man had looked at him earlier, it was clear that he wanted to kill him. These two men had saved his life, so he nodded in agreement.
Since Nangong Yuan had always stayed in the guest room and the two little ones had stayed in Zi Hui's room together, the room originally reserved for Zi Cheng had been empty.
Han Yi was thinking of letting the two of them stay in Zicheng's room, but his gaze fell on Ye Yi and Ye Er's messy hair and their clothes that were no longer recognizable as their original color.
After a moment's hesitation, he decided to let Nangong Yuan stay in Zicheng's room, while the two of them would stay in Nangong Yuan's guest room. As for the man in black on the ground, he didn't care and let him stay in the courtyard for now. He could deal with him tomorrow morning.
Ye Yi helped Han Yi carry Nangong Yuan to Zicheng's room. As soon as they put him on the bed, Han Yi heard a "gurgling" sound.
Hearing this sound, Han Yiyi couldn't help but glance at Nangong Yuan on the bed again, thinking to herself, "This guy ate so much tonight, why is his stomach growling again?"
However, when the gurgling sound started again, it was discovered that the sound was not coming from the bed.
Turning around, he noticed that the person opposite him looked a little unnatural. Before Han Yi could even speak, he heard Ye Yi say something.
"Please excuse me, young lady. I've been chasing that thief these past few days and haven't had much time to eat, which is why..."
Seeing Ye Yi say this, he didn't think much of it, but turned to look at the person who was tied up in the courtyard and asked.
"Great hero, who is that person, and why are you arresting him...?"
Han Yiyi could clearly sense that when the man in black first looked at her, there was murderous intent in his eyes. Even when he was fighting with Nangong Yuan, she could clearly feel that he was moving towards her. However, he was always restrained by Nangong Yuan, which is why he was unable to make a move against her.
Although she knew that Ye Yi and his group were not with the men in black, she was still somewhat puzzled about the men in black's true identity.
“Miss, you don’t need to be so polite. Just call me Zhang San. As for that man in black, he’s a well-known assassin in the martial arts world. He specializes in killing people for money. We’re government officials, and arresting him is doing a service to the people…”
Ye Yi didn't reveal his real name because he didn't want to expose his identity, and also because he didn't know Han Yiyi's identity.
Upon hearing Ye Yi's words, Han Yi frowned slightly, seemingly lost in thought. After a moment, she spoke.
"Brother Zhang must be hungry. Why don't you take your companion to the guest room first, and I'll go and make you something to eat..."
Upon hearing about food, Ye Yi's eyes lit up. They had long since run out of money and hadn't eaten all day in their haste to continue their journey. So when Han Yiyi asked for food, he quickly agreed.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, young lady..."
Since it was already late, Han Yiyi didn't think about making anything complicated. Thinking that there would be some leftovers for dinner, she decided to just cook some noodles. Remembering that he had said he was a government official, Han Yiyi thoughtfully fried two eggs as well.
The noodles were the same kind of bundled noodles that I redeemed from the system. I was thinking of cooking half a portion, but after thinking about Nangong Yuan's appetite, I simply put the whole pack in. I also heated up the leftovers and then took it out.
The autumn nights in the mountains are now quite chilly. A gust of wind blew by, and the person lying on the ground shivered and woke up. Smelling the food wafting out, the man in black was about to howl when his mouth was stuffed with something and gagged.
Seeing that the man's mouth was gagged and he was still making "uh-uh" sounds, Ye chopped him with his hand and knocked him unconscious again.
As for why Ye Yi gagged the man in black, it was because he thought the man in black was after Nangong Yuan, and he was afraid that he would say something that would expose their identities.
Looking at the golden-brown fried egg on top of the noodles, Ye Yi couldn't help but swallow. As soon as he took a bite, he suddenly understood why he, the general, had gained weight.
At this moment, Nangong Yuan, who had been carried to the bed by Ye Yi, suddenly opened his eyes. However, his gaze changed from cold to confused, and then to annoyed.
It turned out that Ye Er's kick had inadvertently cured the man. Not only did he recover, but he also remembered everything that had happened in the past few days, including the fact that he called Han Yiyi "mother" and the fact that he begged Han Yiyi to fetch him a chamber pot.
Thinking of this, Nangong Yuan's face turned pale, then red, and then pale again, just like a spilled palette of colors.
