Zhao Wan stopped crying after Meng Xun coaxed her like this.

She wiped the tear marks on her cheeks with the back of her hand, then pushed Meng Xun away, sniffing and sobbing, "Thank you, second brother."

The man's arms were empty, and his hands hung awkwardly in the air.

There seemed to be a faint fragrance of the girl in his arms. Meng Xun looked at the girl who had stopped crying, feeling a little lost.

This little girl would let him hold her when she needed coaxing, and would immediately push him away when she was coaxed.

How ruthless.

Meng Xun frowned and took his hand back. Although he was a little unhappy, he didn't say anything to provoke Zhao Wan.

How dare he? Zhao Wan had a baby in her belly, and now the whole family had to pamper her.

Meng Xun lifted the quilt and covered Zhao Wan with it. He tucked the corner of the quilt, looked at the girl with a red nose, and said softly: "You should have a good rest. I'll go back first and come to see you another day."

Zhao Wan nodded: "Goodbye, second brother."

Meng Xun got up and left with a dark face.

Second brother, second brother...

This woman always adds "second brother" in front of her words. Is she trying to annoy him?

One day, he will make her willingly call him husband fifty times a day.

Meng Xun walked out of Nanyuan Pavilion, and was suddenly stunned in the middle of the way.

He touched his handsome face, and then realized why he had just done that and why he wanted Zhao Wan to call him husband?

He did have the idea of ​​marrying her, but that was only for the sake of responsibility, in order to give the baby in her belly a happy home.

As for whether she called his husband or not, what did it have to do with him?

Meng Xun shook his head, shaking off the absurd idea in his mind. It didn't matter what she called, but she couldn't call "Second Brother", which always seemed to suppress him.

The servant came to report earlier that Meng Zhao's whereabouts were found in an inn in Fu County, and people have been sent to keep a close eye on him.

Prepare to set up a dragnet tomorrow to capture him.

Meng Zhao has been extremely intelligent since he was a child, and he is not someone that ordinary people can capture.

After visiting Zhao Wan in Nanyuan Pavilion, Meng Xun returned to his house, packed his luggage, and immediately set off to Fu County to help.

When he arrived in Fu County, it was already dark.

Under the dim wall, stood two tall men hidden in the night.

One of the men in gray clothes pointed to the second floor of an inn opposite and said to the man in a white gown: "Second Young Master, the third room on the left on the second floor of the inn opposite is the residence of the eldest young master."

Meng Xun looked in the direction pointed by the attendant and could vaguely see a tall and slender figure walking in that room.

"Yes." Meng Xun nodded, "Act according to the original plan at noon tomorrow."

"Yes."

*

The next day, a moment before noon.

A group of Meng family servants dressed in disguise were having a meal on the first floor of the guest inn. After a while, a tall and graceful man in white slowly walked down from upstairs.

This man was Meng Zhao, who had not been seen for many days.

He found a secluded corner and sat down. Then the waiter brought a plate of steamed buns, meat sauce, and porridge, "Master, this is the breakfast you wanted, the same as usual."

"Yes." Meng Zhao nodded and thanked the waiter, "Thank you."

Meng Zhao took a steamed bun in one hand and picked up chopsticks in the other hand, and began to eat, his movements were elegant and slow.

Seeing Meng Zhao start to eat, the eyes of those servants in disguise lit up slightly.

Half a minute later, Meng Zhao suddenly "plopped" and fell on the table. The half-eaten steamed bun in his hand slipped from his hand and rolled to the ground.

Several servants of the Meng family exchanged glances, stood up

one after another, and approached the unconscious Meng Zhao. A servant walking in front stretched out his hand and tentatively placed it on Meng Zhao's shoulder. Meng Zhao, who was originally drowsy, suddenly opened his eyes, stretched out his hand quickly, grabbed the servant's wrist, and threw him over his shoulder, slamming him hard onto the table.

With a "bang", the square wooden table split in the middle, and the servant fell to the ground, holding his abdomen and groaning in pain: "Young Master, you clearly ate, why are you still awake?"

Meng Zhao stood up, looked at the servants in front of him, and curled his lips contemptuously, "You have been following me secretly for three days. Do you really think I am blind? I just ate half a steamed bun, and the rest of the food was not touched."

The servant secretly bribed the waiter and put knockout drugs in the meat sauce and porridge. Meng Zhao just used chopsticks to stir the meat sauce, and he put the chopsticks to his mouth, but he did not eat.

Instead, he used the blind spot of vision to make these servants mistakenly think that he had eaten.
