These were the last two sentences Zhang Meng heard before she regained consciousness. When she regained consciousness, she was surrounded by many people.
"She's awake! Sister-in-law is awake!" Ye Shiping shouted happily.
Zhang Meng had just moved her hands when a hoarse voice came to her ears, "You're finally awake! Are you feeling unwell?"
Zhang Meng looked up and was stunned, "Gu Mingtai, why are you like this?"
At this moment, he no longer looked as energetic as usual. Instead, he had an illusion of decadence.
Before Gu Mingtai could answer, his men beside him couldn't wait to explain for him, "Sister-in-law, you don't know, when the boss saw you fainted half an hour ago, that expression was terrifying. He wanted to kill anyone who touched you. It was so scary."
Zhang Meng immediately looked at the man next to her, "Did I just faint?"
Gu Mingtai held her tightly in his arms and said softly, "It doesn't matter anymore. Nothing matters anymore. As long as you are safe and sound, that's all that matters."
After enjoying himself in his arms for a while, Zhang Meng quickly remembered the Ghost King Xuefeng Laogui.
"Where is old ghost Xuefeng?" She had just turned around when she was pressed into the arms of the man next to her.
"Sister-in-law, you don't have to worry. You have driven away the ghost king. Sister-in-law, you are so awesome!" Ye Shiping said to Zhang Meng with a smile.
No one knew that from then on he had another person he admired in his heart, and that was the sister-in-law in front of him.
After hearing this, Zhang Meng looked at Gu Mingtai in confusion, "What the hell is going on? I, I defeated the old ghost Xuefeng?"
Why did this incident sound so unreal to her? She had no such impression in her mind at all. She only remembered that everything she saw was blood red.
In an instant, Zhang Meng's face turned pale.
Gu Mingtai immediately gave the talkative Ye Shiping a warning look.
"He was injured and escaped." Gu Mingtai replied briefly.
Zhang Tianfu, who had been standing nearby, couldn't help but ask, "Girl, how are you doing now? Can we keep going?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he received a warning look.
Zhang Tianfu shrank his neck, unwilling to be frightened by his grandson-in-law, so he stretched his neck and said to him, "What, what's wrong? Did I say something wrong? Things are really urgent now. If those people from Country R really rely on those ghosts on the thirteenth floor to destroy the dragon vein, our Chinese national destiny will definitely be greatly damaged. Do you want to see our country return to the devastation of the past?"
Gu Mingtai snorted softly, "That's the country's business, I don't care. I only know that my wife is injured now, and I won't let her go any further. Let's go back now." After saying that, he picked up Zhang Meng who was sitting on the ground.
Seeing that he really didn't care about what was going to happen next, Zhang Tianfu was so anxious that sweat fell from his forehead. He angrily scolded, "You have no patriotism, you don't deserve to be a Chinese, you have no love!"
Gu Mingtai let him scold him and prepared to go out with Zhang Meng in his arms.
Zhang Meng turned around to look at her grandfather who was jumping with anger, then looked at her man with an expressionless face, and made a decision in her heart.
"Gu Mingtai, please put me down. I want to continue walking inside with grandpa." She pulled the corner of his clothes and said.
Gu Mingtai, who had taken two steps, stopped when he heard her words, frowned, put her down, and said disapprovingly, "Xiao Meng, listen to me, let's not go this time, let's go back now."
He still felt a lingering fear when he thought of the scene where she almost lost her life not long ago.
If he really had to choose between the country and her, he would choose her.
Because she only has him to protect her, but the country has many people to protect it.
Zhang Meng frowned and shouted, "Gu Mingtai, I want to go. Please listen to me this time, okay? I don't know what happened when I was fighting with the old ghost Xuefeng just now that scared you so much, but I promise you that this kind of thing will never happen again. Okay, let's follow grandpa and continue forward."
Gu Mingtai frowned and stared at her silently.
Suddenly he held her face in his hands and said seriously, "I just want you to be well! Do you understand what I mean?"
"I know, I know you're doing this for my own good, but Gu Mingtai, if our country is really harmed by those people from Country R, you and I will definitely feel bad in the end. I don't want to suffer that kind of pain."
Zhang Meng quickly said, "I don't want you to suffer like this either!"
And she was sure that based on the man's years of experience in the army, if the country suffered such a disaster, his pain would be ten times greater than hers.
Gu Mingtai stared into her eyes for a long time, and suddenly hugged her in his arms, "Sometimes I really don't want you to be so sensible!"
Zhang Meng couldn't help but smile and hugged him back, "Let's continue walking forward with Grandpa, okay?"
"Okay, I'll do as you say!" Gu Mingtai finally relented.
Zhang Meng smiled happily upon hearing this. He turned around and called out to Zhang Tianfu, "Grandpa, you lead the way. Let's keep going."
Zhang Tianfu grinned and said happily, "Grandpa heard it, let's go!"
During the rest of the journey, Zhang Meng found that her grandfather seemed to be approaching her intentionally or unintentionally, asking some strange questions.
However, every time he asked an important question, Gu Mingtai would deliberately bump into him from behind.
The first and second times, she thought Gu Mingtai was angry with her grandfather for asking her to move forward. It was not until the third time that she finally realized the strangeness of the matter.
"Gu Mingtai, stop making trouble. I think grandpa has something important to ask me. Don't always push him to the back." Zhang Meng looked at the man who was protecting her with displeasure.
Gu Mingtai glanced behind him at Zhang Tianfu, who was surrounded by Ye Shiping and the others, and said with a cold smile, "If he has anything to ask, ignore him! Let's keep going."
At this moment, Zhang Tianfu, who was being held back by Ye Shiping and the others, saw his granddaughter being coaxed by the man surnamed Gu again. He became anxious and stood on tiptoe, shouting, "Girl, girl, wait for grandpa."
Zhang Meng turned around and said to Ye Shiping and the others, "Let my grandpa go!"
Ye Shiping and others all looked embarrassed.
Zhang Meng snorted when she saw this. "What's wrong? You guys don't listen to me, your sister-in-law, right? Fine, I'll take back all the talismans I gave you."
As soon as she finished speaking, the ten people automatically made way for Zhang Tianfu to pass.
"Girl, why did you give them such a powerful talisman paper? It made your grandfather helpless against them."
Otherwise, given his identity as a ghost, it would be impossible for these ten people to stop him.
