Ever since she was old enough to understand, Ren Yaohua had always wanted to protect her mother. Later, she also wanted to protect her younger sister. She believed that she was a strong woman, born to stand up for her family members who were weaker than herself and hold up the sky for them.
"It was originally just a precaution, but I didn't expect it to come in handy this time. I happened to be meeting a friend on Zhengyang Street when you were kidnapped, so I was able to follow you in time after receiving the news. It's just that I left in such a hurry that I didn't have time to bring too many people with me, and I didn't know the details of your kidnapper. There were so many people on the road to meet you, so I didn't dare to act rashly, so I followed you all the way."
Although there were only three of them left after they separated from the other group, their martial arts skills were not weak, and it was unknown whether there were other people secretly coming to support them, nor was it clear who was behind the scenes.
Lei Ting hurriedly followed them, only Liu Gui with him. He feared that if he acted rashly, those people would become desperate and hurt Ren Yaohua. So Lei Ting followed them after confirming that Ren Yaohua was in the carriage and unharmed, and that her captors were only thinking about rushing to Zhuozhou and would not hurt anyone for the time being. He then secretly arranged rescue efforts along the way.
Lei Ting soon understood the terrain from Yanzhou to Zhuozhou. He took the people he had temporarily gathered and took a small road to get ahead of Ren Yaohua and the others. Originally, he planned to let his people ambush in the woods to intercept Ren Yaohua, but he found that a group of people had already ambushed in the woods.
Lei Ting did not expect that Zeng Kui would show up at this time with several guards specially selected by the Zeng family to protect his safety, and he did not expect that Ren Yaohua would be injured later.
Just as Lei Ting was about to risk his life to save her, he encountered several top experts from Xiao Jingxi's staff at the Yanbei Palace who were out on a mission. Worried about Ren Yaohua's injuries, Lei Ting dared not delay any further and immediately borrowed three men from the Yanbei Palace, along with himself and one of his men, to climb the slope to approach Ren Yaohua.
The moment he saw Ren Yaohua, Lei Ting regretted that he had not taken the risk to rescue her earlier. As the head of the clan, he was no longer in the age of impulsiveness and passion. Instead, he was used to achieving his goals in the safest way possible, as this would minimize losses and maximize the chances of success.
He had witnessed this girl's stubbornness more than once, and her arrogance, even when broken and bloodied, to refuse to give in. He admired this stubbornness and arrogance, but he didn't agree with it, so he specifically reminded her twice.
For Thunder, being calm, self-possessed and at ease are the qualities that an excellent person should possess, so he also pays attention to these qualities when considering candidates for his second wife.
Yet, for some reason, even this thorny Ren Yaohua always made him feel pity and distress. He couldn't bear to see her encounter setbacks and suffer harm. There were many women far more vulnerable and pitiable than Ren Yaohua, yet they couldn't inspire the slightest desire to protect her. Lei Ting wasn't a compassionate, overly nice guy, and such a nice guy wouldn't be the head of the Lei family.
Although Lei Ting described the process of following them all the way to rescue people in a very concise and understated manner, Ren Yaohua knew that it took less than an hour and a half for them to walk here from Yunyang City. Lei Ting had to follow them closely, secretly gather people, and arrange a rescue plan. He must have put in a lot of effort.
Even blood relatives could probably only be so thorough, not to mention that he was just a stranger to him?
