The old man examined him carefully for a moment, then looked at Mu Nanxun and asked, "You know him? How did you offend him?"
Mu Nanxun glanced at the man, quickly searched his memory, and was quite certain that he had never had any contact with this person before, let alone had any grudge against him.
"Old man, are you sure this isn't your enemy? Listen carefully again, maybe you've misremembered something."
The old man retorted defiantly, "Nonsense! I may be getting old, but I'm not blind yet. I've never even seen this person before, what grudge could I possibly have against him!"
"Perfect, I don't know them either."
"Boss, let me question him properly. If he dares not to tell the truth, I have plenty of ways to deal with him."
Xiao Fang rubbed his hands together, grabbed the man's collar, and before he could even ask a question, the man raised his right hand and swung the hidden weapon in his hand fiercely towards Xiao Fang.
Qingyun's throat tightened, and he stepped forward to stop him. At the same time, Xiao Fang instinctively dodged backward, but the man's hand suddenly changed direction and decisively stabbed down at his own tongue.
In an instant, blood flowed freely, and the man fainted from the pain.
Xiao Fang: "Wow, does she have to be so aggressive?!"
Mu Nanxun frowned. "Take him away first and keep a close watch on him. Even without his tongue, we can still get some information out of him."
"Yes, young master!"
Several men in black stepped forward, dragged the man, and disappeared into the night. The bloodstains on the ground were quickly cleaned up, as if nothing had happened.
Everyone dispersed and went back to their rooms to sleep.
Mu Nanxun stood alone in the courtyard, still feeling uneasy.
Is this really over?
This masked man... was he really the man who almost hit Yi Yi and nearly killed him?
Mu Nanxun had fought that masked man before, but it felt different from today's one.
The man who tried to assassinate him that day was ruthless and decisive, every move aimed at killing him. This guy today was clearly less skilled, simply because Xiao Fang was able to subdue him single-handedly.
Moreover, based on his judgment of that person, the masked man shouldn't be such a brainless person as to fall into his trap so easily.
By the way, where's Yi Yi? With such a big incident and such a commotion, why haven't we seen Yi Yi?
Mu Nanxun's heart skipped a beat, worried that he had fallen for the masked man's diversionary tactic. Perhaps the masked man's target tonight wasn't him at all, but Yi Yi!
Realizing this possibility, Mu Nanxun didn't dare to delay and quickly changed direction, rushing to the room on the second floor where Yi Yi was sleeping that night.
Fearing retaliation from the masked man, Mu Nanxun arranged for Yi Yi to stay in an ordinary guest room and did not sleep with him.
"Bang bang bang..."
Mu Nanxun arrived at the room door and knocked.
No one answered.
He panicked slightly, kicked open the door, and rushed inside. His heart was practically in his throat.
"Hmm..."
The little one on the bed seemed to have been awakened by the noise of him kicking the door. He opened his eyes groggily, and after seeing that it was Mu Nanxun, he pouted unhappily, pulled the blanket over his head.
A mumbling sound came from under the blanket.
"Mumu, it's you! Is it dawn yet? I'm so sleepy, let me sleep a little longer."
Only at this moment did Mu Nanxun's heart settle down. She sat down on the edge of the bed, lifted the blanket, and asked, "Yi Yi, are you alright?"
