"It's alright," Xia Xiang stopped the two. The situation was basically under control now, and they were just waiting for the Iron Guard to arrive.
Xia Xiang mobilized the energy in her body to repair her internal injuries, and then, under the pretext of looking for something, she re-entered the cabin and hid Lanling Wang in a more secluded place.
The quiet woods gradually filled with noise as a group of people hurried towards them, led by Jiu Wu and Hu Yanqing.
"Sister!" Hu Yanjing waved excitedly when he saw Hu Yanqing.
However, both Jiu Wu and Hu Yanqing had stern faces and looked quite unpleasant.
Seeing this scene, Xia Xiang felt a pang of loneliness welling up inside her for some reason, until Xia Yu appeared at the back of the crowd with his bag on his back.
Xia Xiang was initially pleasantly surprised, but then, seeing her older brother's worried and anxious expression, she grinned and teleported past Jiu Wu.
"Big brother!" Xia Xiang teleported in front of Xia Yu and hugged him. Due to the inertia, Xia Yu almost fell to the ground while hugging her. She said happily, "Were you looking for me?"
"Ouch! My ear!" Xia Yu pretended to be stern, grabbed Xia Xiang's ear, and began to lecture her incessantly.
"I'll call you big brother then! You just got back and you've already started hanging out with those traitors. Luckily, Xiong-ge doesn't know this time. Just wait and see how I punish you when I get back!"
Hu Yanjing/Ren Chenfeng: They have legitimate jobs, they're not traitors!
"Are you hurt?" Xia Yu pulled Xia Xiang to check her left and right. "If you dare to get hurt, I'll deduct all your allowance for the past six years! And Grandpa will freeze you for a year!"
"No, no, I know, I know." Xia Xiang was very happy with her older brother's lecture.
However, it's hard to accept that my cunning and beautiful older brother has become a housekeeper, but it feels so good to have a parent come to pick me up when I get into trouble.
So she vowed that she would never run away again and would report to him wherever she went.
"Let's go home!" Xia Yu was quite satisfied with his younger sister's attitude of admitting her mistake. He picked up the schoolbag that had fallen to the ground, pulled her along, and threatened, "If you keep hanging out with these traitors in the superpower world, I'll break your legs."
"Hey, wait a minute, I'm going to cut ties with those two traitors. Can you wait for me?" Xia Xiang took a few steps before remembering her sworn enemies.
Seeing Xia Yu's disapproving expression, Xia Xiang tugged at his hand and said coquettishly, "Why don't you come with me and, as the head of the family, warn them to stay away from your sister?"
"Hurry up! There are taxis waiting down the mountain. Any extra fare will be deducted from your allowance!" Xia Yu looked over there with disdain, pinched Xia Xiang's fair face, and threatened her fiercely.
"What's mine is yours, you can buckle it however you like." Xia Xiang broke free and ran back to the wooden house.
She hadn't expected so many people to come. What if they found Lanling Wang? She thought it best to bring him with her.

Next to the wooden house
Hu Yanqing glanced at Xia Xiang and Xia Yu's interaction, then looked at the disappointed handsome man beside him and couldn't help but tease him.
He transmitted his voice, "Oh my, you even raised your hand just now, but no one saw you!"
Jiu Wu casually patted the sleeves on both sides of his clothes, looked at Xia Xiang who had run back, smiled brightly, and said directly to Hu Yanqing, "An iceberg monster has appeared in the Arctic. You should set off the day after tomorrow."
Hu Yanqing: "!" Using public office for personal revenge!
"Xiangxiang, what's wrong? Are you going back?" Huyan Jing asked, looking at Xia Xiang as she returned.
Xia Xiang laughed and said, "Yes, my older brother came to pick me up." Her tone was cheerful, with an overly obvious sense of pride.
“My older brother is a genius. He double majored in economics and law at National Taiwan University. He’s nothing like you illiterate people.”
Huyan Jing: Did I ask? Just tell me! Do you still want to be brothers with me?!
"Get out of here! Don't force me to kneel down and beg you!" Hu Yanjing said through gritted teeth.
"I left something in the house, I'll go look for it again." Xia Xiang said as she walked into the house. As she passed Jiu Wu and Hu Yanqing, who were exchanging glances and sparks flying, she immediately stopped smiling and nodded in greeting.
Xia Xiang dodged the Iron Guards who were searching, found the hem of Lanling Wang's clothes, and then quickly put Lanling Wang into her newly acquired magical ring.
This feature is absolutely amazing; it solved her immediate problem.
With so many people around, what if they were found? She took Lanling Wang away first, and then delivered him to his home that night.
She's such a beautiful and kind-hearted young woman!
Xia Xiang was about to step out of the cabin when she was called back...
