It's been almost a year since Li Shan was reborn. The Li family is not short of money, and in this year she has secretly trained several people, making it easy for her to send messages to the Lin family in the capital.
Just then, the Lin family was also very suspicious about the charred body of Lu Zheng that was sent back. Even though Master Zhou and Grandma Xiao, as the maternal grandparents, made a scene, they didn't see Lu Zheng's body with their own eyes, and the Lin family was still uneasy.
Therefore, the people this time were indeed sent by the Lin family.
Gu Xin was still nagging in the car when she cleaned the wound on Lu Zheng's arm and bandaged it with her own handkerchief.
Lu Zheng looked at Gu Xin: "Were you scared just now?"
Gu Xin nodded: "I was scared. But Dad said that I shouldn't panic when things happen. If the enemy is much stronger than me, I shouldn't think about defeating them, let alone thinking about escaping by chance. I should do everything I can to create an opportunity to escape."
Lu Zheng nodded: "Yes, Second Uncle is right."
Gu Xin asked again, "Brother Yuanyuan, why does your stepmother want to kill you? You're not going back, why won't she let you go? Does your father's family have a lot of property? Is your stepmother wary of you? Is she trying to help her child take what you deserve?"
Lu Zheng was taken aback.
Gu Xin continued, "If that's the case, Yuan Yuan, I think you should go back even more. My father taught me that what's rightfully yours shouldn't be given away. Why should you give away your own things to others?"
Lu Zheng took a deep breath: "I will go back. I will bide my time and one day they will know that what's mine is not easy to take."
Gu Xin nodded: "Yes, that's right. She's trying to kill you, you can't be soft-hearted. And your dad too, what kind of father is he? Even tigers don't eat their cubs, but sparrows will carry the worms they find back to feed their babies!"
Lu Zheng pursed his lips and remained silent.
He had no feelings for his father, who was surnamed Lu. He only recognized his grandfather because his grandfather protected his sister when he was a child. It was because of his love for his sister that he was able to grow up normally.
Unfortunately, his grandfather passed away when he was nine years old, and then his sister was forced into marriage.
Suddenly, Meng Meng outside stopped the carriage: "A Yuan, Miss Xin, I feel something is wrong."
Lu Zheng lifted the curtain and looked outside.
The road ahead was at the foot of a cliff, and it was very narrow, only wide enough for two carriages to pass side by side, with a precipice on the other side.
Lu Zheng peeked out and sensed danger, as if people were lying in ambush all around.
In a flash, Lu Zheng made his decision: "Let's go back!"
Meng Meng and Gu Hui were turning the carriage around when, with a "whoosh," an arrow shot from halfway up the cliff.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" Then, several arrows followed in quick succession.
The horse was hit by an arrow, and Meng Meng and Gu Hui couldn't control it at all.
This happened in the blink of an eye.
Lu Zheng pulled Gu Xin to jump off the horse, but Meng Meng and Gu Hui had already jumped off on either side.
Unfortunately, the horse had already galloped wildly, and Gu Hui's direction was at the edge of the cliff. When she jumped, she rolled directly to the very edge.
Startled, the horse galloped wildly and fell off the cliff.
"Xin Xin, A Yuan!" Gu Hui didn't see Lu Zheng and Gu Xin jump out of the carriage, so she shouted from the edge of the cliff.
"Watch out, Miss Hui!" Seeing an arrow heading towards Gu Hui, Meng Meng stepped forward and deflected it with his knife.
"Let's go! Let's go!" Meng Meng pulled Gu Hui to hide, to a place where the arrows couldn't reach.
"Meng Meng, Xin Xin and A Yuan didn't jump down, they fell!" Gu Hui was a little unable to accept it.
