The man in black was a little anxious, but because of his master's orders, he didn't dare to make a decision on his own and waited for Sikong Ling's order. If it was other matters, he roughly knew his master's decision, but when it came to Miss Su, his always wise master was a little unpredictable to him. Who knew what decision she would make.
Sikong Ling nodded: "Let them follow behind and protect Miss Su and her group. No one should get lost."
The man in black was delighted when he saw Sikong Ling nodded, thinking that his master knew his limits and would not let a woman ruin his important matter. But he didn't expect him to say this later, and his face twitched. Fortunately, he had long been accustomed to his master's unusual attitude towards Miss Su's affairs, so he was not too surprised.
"Master, that colorful lamp is very important to you. If it is taken by those people, the situation will be unfavorable to you." The man in black did not dare to disobey his master's wishes, but this matter was very important. He could not bear to see his master delaying himself for a woman, and this was related to the great cause of the Sikong family.
Sikong Ling glanced at his subordinate calmly: "Do as I say. When will it be your turn to question my decision?"
"Yes, I obey your command." Even if the man in black was worried, he didn't dare to do anything. He received the order.
"The people over there have sent many experts here for the Seven-Colored Exquisite Lantern. Han Yu and the Shangguan family are not pushovers either. You may not win even if you go to fight for it. It's better for you to protect them. I have some connections with the Han family. If you come to their door, they will still give me some face. Although it costs some price, it is a safe way." Sikong Ling finally explained a few words. He was also worried that his subordinates would think too much and slack off in their work. Of course, he did this because of Su Wenyue, as long as it did not hinder major matters.
Han Yu and Shangguan Wuyou discussed for a few words and decided to go back to the Han family together. First of all, they all assumed that the lantern was won by Su Wenyue, and a noble person like Shangguan Wuyou would not take advantage of Su Wenyue in this regard. However, the couple was indeed very curious about this colorful and exquisite lantern, and wanted to go back with Han Yu and his wife. Even if they could not own it, it would be good to play with and study it to satisfy their curiosity.
Han Yu's intention was to let his subordinates take the colorful exquisite lantern and leave first, while he and Shangguan Wuyou would protect their wives and go back together. After all, in his opinion, no matter how important the colorful exquisite lantern was, it was not as important as his wife. Those people in the dark were coming for the colorful exquisite lantern, and as long as they didn't carry the colorful exquisite lantern with them, there would not be much danger. However, his wife held the box tightly and refused to let go.
Han Yu felt somewhat helpless. Even though his wife was usually stubborn, she understood the truth at the critical moment. But today she was so stubborn that she refused to let go of the box no matter how much he persuaded her.
"Wife, be obedient. The things in this box are too dangerous to carry. I'll have someone take them away first. I promise I'll return them to you later."
Su Wenyue still shook her head. It was not that she was ignorant, but everyone had their own obsessions, and no one understood the doubts and uneasiness in her heart. She had to turn on the colorful exquisite lamp to confirm it. Now that the thing was in her hands, it would be safer to keep it in her own hands than to leave it in anyone else's hands. If it was really snatched away by someone, who would she cry to?
Han Yu was worried when he saw Su Wenyue like this. He wondered whether he should take the things away by force, but his wife's unprecedented attitude made him undecided.
Shangguan Wuyou saw Su Wenyue like this, and thought that it was no use to continue the stalemate, so he said, "Since my sister-in-law insists, let her take it. With us protecting her, there should be no problem."
After hearing what Shangguan Wuyou said, Han Yu had no choice but to nod and escort his wife to the stage. A path had been cleared below and the people protecting them in the dark also came over to escort them away. Before they had walked far, someone came to snatch the box from Su Wenyue's hand. The people who took action this time were much more skilled than those who had just tried to steal the lights. Fortunately, Han Yu and Shangguan Wuyou had made arrangements in advance and had transferred a lot of experts over, so they were able to resist and did not have to take action.
Seeing this, Su Wenyue pursed her lips, knowing that she had caused trouble for Han Yu, but she couldn't give up, at least not until she got the answer.
"It seems that this is really a colorful exquisite lantern. The people who came to grab the lantern this time are much more powerful. Sister Yue, you really found a treasure." Ye Xinxin didn't seem scared at all. Instead, she looked quite excited and seemed somewhat happy. Su Wenyue felt a little better.
Unfortunately, just as Ye Xinxin finished speaking, another group of men in black came, and there were quite a few of them. Shangguan Wuyou and Han Yu looked at each other with serious expressions. It was not that they did not have the confidence to deal with these men in black, but they were afraid that they could not take care of the two unarmed weak women following them.
Another group of men in black came after them, and Shangguan Wuyou and Han Yu looked even uglier. Seeing this, Su Wenyue wondered whether she should give up the colorful lantern. After all, no matter how important the obsession and doubts in her heart were, they were not as important as her life. The reason she had been able to persist before was that she believed that Han Yu had a way to deal with it. But now two groups of men in black have arrived, and they seem to be quite skilled. Even if Han Yu and Shangguan Wuyou had three heads and six arms, they would probably find it difficult to deal with them.
"You go first, I'll deal with these people." The men in black rushed to Su Wenyue. Han Yu had already clenched his sword, but suddenly heard this. Before he could react, the two groups of men in black had already started fighting.
"What are you still standing there for? Why don't you take your people and leave?" The man in black was not very willing to save them in the first place. Although his master gave the reason, he knew in his heart that it was more or less because of taking care of Su Wenyue, so he said to Han Yu unhappily.
Han Yu looked at the martial arts moves of the leader of the black-clad men, as well as his slightly familiar tone and attitude, and suddenly understood who sent this group of black-clad men. After all, he had dealt with them several times before. Although his expression still did not look very good, he felt relieved in his heart.
"So you know these people, Brother Han? Wow, you really scared me. I thought we were all going to die on the streets today." Ye Xinxin was not really heartless. She was still nervous when she saw two groups of men in black coming towards her. She didn't expect the plot to take a turn in a direction she couldn't imagine. She was a little surprised.

Shangguan Wuyou's face darkened when he heard Ye Xinxin's blunt words, but he was used to his wife's habit of saying shocking things. Instead, he looked at Han Yu with a flash of color in his eyes.
Someone was there to protect them, and Shangguan Wuyou and Han Yu were not the ones to delay. They immediately protected their wives and left. They would be safer only if they returned to the Han Mansion. Su Wenyue's mind was mostly on the small box at this time. Although she was a little surprised about this, she didn't think much about it and hurriedly followed Han Yu away.
