In the morning, Hua Li took the two little ones to exercise in the yard, while Luo Shicheng went out to the army base.
Luo Yan didn't know what was wrong, but she felt palpitations after standing in the meditation posture for only a short while.
At first, Luo Yan was able to hold on, but soon the panic spread throughout her body, making her shiver deeply in the warm morning sun.
"Yanyan, what's wrong?" Hua Li saw that Luo Yan had straightened up after less than ten minutes of standing in the stance and was pacing anxiously at the door, so he came over, hugged Luo Yan, and asked.
Luo Yan clutched her chest. She was certain she didn't have a heart condition, but she couldn't figure out what was causing her palpitations.
Hua Li examined Luo Yan's rosy face and touched her forehead; she didn't have a fever.
"Are you tired? If you are, go and rest. You can practice again when you're not tired anymore."
Luo Yan felt a pang of anxiety, sensing an impending danger.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and the mother and daughter both looked towards the doorway.
"Who is it?" Hua Li stood up and walked towards the courtyard gate.
"Oh dear, open the door quickly, something's happened to your Battalion Commander Luo..."
Hua Li opened the door and saw it was Sister Qian. "What happened to Luo Shicheng?"
Aunt Qian said in a panic, "Someone saw your Battalion Commander Luo beaten up and covered in blood, and said he's about to die."
"What?!" Hua Li's expression changed.
Although Luo Shicheng was a bastard, she never wanted him to die, and she panicked when she heard the bad news.
"Stop dawdling, come with me now," Aunt Qian urged Hua Li.
Hua Li turned and ran into the house, taking all the cash with her. She grabbed the door key and ran out, but Luo Yan grabbed her clothes.
Something's not right, something's very wrong. Luo Yan had a gut feeling that something was wrong with this, and Hua Li couldn't leave.
"Yanyan, something happened to Daddy. Mommy is going to find Daddy. You and Brother Xiaoxiu stay home and behave yourselves."
No, you can't leave! Luo Yan clung to Hua Li, refusing to let go.
Hua Li hurriedly pulled the hem of her clothes that Luo Yan had grabbed, turned around and ran out the door.
Luo Yan chased after her, but Hua Li had already run out the door and slammed the gate shut. No matter how much Luo Yan knocked and called for her mother, it was no use.
Hearing Hua Li and Sister Qian's hurried footsteps as they left, Luo Yan was extremely anxious.
Xiao Xiu walked over and patted Luo Yan, who immediately calmed down.
If someone has set a trap for Hua Li, then even if she, a child, is very capable, she may not be able to protect Hua Li completely. Therefore, the most important thing is to find Luo Shicheng as soon as possible.
But what if something really happens to Luo Shicheng? Luo Yan scratched her head.
Regardless, she decided to find Luo Shicheng first.
Luo Yan told Xiao Xiu, "Brother, wait, Yan Yan is looking for Dad."
"I'll go too." Xiao Xiu had just recovered and was still speaking with some difficulty.
Luo Yan shook her head, "Brother is waiting for Mom."
If Hua Li comes back and can't find her, he'll definitely be worried. With Xiao Xiu there, Hua Li won't scare himself like that.
After saying that, Luo Yan took a few steps back to help her jump, pushed off the courtyard wall, and landed lightly on the ground.
Fortunately, there was no one around, so Luo Yan ran away as fast as she could.
Judging by the timeline, Luo Shicheng should have been returning from the army by now, so if something really happened to Luo Shicheng, it must have been near the grove.
Luo Yan headed straight for the grove with a clear purpose...
Hua Li followed Sister Qian out of the compound and ran towards the army. When they reached the vicinity of the grove, several men suddenly rushed out of the grove, knocked Sister Qian unconscious, and surrounded Hua Li.
Since escaping from Wang Sheng, Hua Li has gained a new understanding of his running speed. Seeing that the other side had a large number of people and his path was blocked, he turned around and ran towards the opposite rooster mountain.
The five men were caught off guard by Hua Li's agile movements, which allowed Hua Li to find an opening, and they chased after him in a fit of rage.
When Luo Yan arrived, she only saw Sister Qian lying on the roadside, but Hua Li was nowhere to be seen.
The footprints on the ground were messy. Luo Yan followed the footprints and guessed that Hua Li must have run into the mountains.
Luo Yan was about to give chase when she heard the sounds of fighting coming from deep within the grove, and it sounded like there were many people involved.
Remembering what Aunt Qian said about Luo Shicheng being beaten, Luo Yan suspected that the person in the grove was Luo Shicheng, except that Aunt Qian had mentioned Luo Shicheng's fate beforehand.
Luo Yan gritted her teeth and rushed into the grove.
On his way home, Luo Shicheng was stopped by Sun Qingsheng, who asked him to come into the grove to talk.
Luo Shicheng knew he couldn't avoid this, and besides, he had no intention of hiding it. He followed Sun Qingsheng into the grove.
When we reached a clearing deep in the woods, there was a large group of more than twenty people standing there, all of whom looked like thugs.
"Sun Qingsheng, have you thought about how you're going to explain this later?" Luo Shicheng took off his coat and hung it on a tree branch, asking Sun Qingsheng in a teasing tone.
Sun Qingsheng gritted his teeth, the bruises on his face still lingering.
"Let's talk about it when you can get out of here alive."
Before he finished speaking, more than twenty people surrounded Luo Shicheng.
Sun Qingsheng thought he had the victory in his grasp, but he didn't know how painful it was for someone who was used to fighting to not have a good, satisfying punch for several years.
Facing an attack from more than twenty people, Luo Shicheng punched them one by one with great satisfaction.
Seeing Luo Shicheng sweep away a group of sheep like a tiger among sheep in the time it takes to eat a meal, Sun Qingsheng made a hand gesture, and the remaining ten or so men retreated while fighting.
Just as Luo Shicheng knocked down two more burly men with two punches, the people surrounding him suddenly scattered to both sides, and then a giant net fell from above.
Luo Shicheng had already sensed something was wrong. Feigning to fall into the trap, he ran a few steps to the side as the giant net fell, but his foot slipped and he tumbled into the trap...
Several sharp knives were stuck in the trap with their tips pointing upwards. If Luo Shicheng fell in, he would surely die. Sun Qingsheng walked triumphantly to the edge of the trap and was about to look down when a large hand grabbed his ankle.
Luo Shicheng, who had slid down the edge of the pit, grabbed the pit wall with his bare hands and flipped Sun Qingsheng over by his ankle.
Pushing off the pit wall, Luo Shicheng jumped back to the ground, and as his feet landed, another large net fell down.
Sun Qingsheng suddenly grabbed Luo Shicheng's thigh, and Luo Shicheng, who was about to jump away, was tripped. The two of them were trapped in the net and then bounced up and hung in mid-air.
They finally caught Luo Shicheng. Although he was trapped in the net with him, Sun Qingsheng, who was in a bloodthirsty frenzy, was still overjoyed and roared at the five remaining men.
"Quick, hit him! Kill him!"
Luo Shicheng and Sun Qingsheng were in the same trap. If they wanted to take down Luo Shicheng, it would be difficult to avoid Sun Qingsheng suffering the consequences. After discussing it, the five of them decided that two of them, who already had criminal records, would take the lead.
Two men, one fat and one thin, drew daggers from their waistbands and approached Luo Shicheng.
Luo Shicheng's pupils constricted when he saw the daggers in the two men's hands, and he grabbed Sun Qingsheng's neck with his large hand.
"Don't move, or I'll kill him."
Sun Qingsheng sneered, "Fine, then kill me. If you kill me, you'll become a murderer, your future will be ruined, your wife will surely run away, and your daughter will become the daughter of a murderer. Let's see how arrogant you can be then."
By killing Sun Qingsheng, he destroyed the entire family, Hua Li's remaining life, and Luo Yan's future. He let them do as they pleased; only he himself would die. Luo Shicheng withdrew his hand from Sun Qingsheng's neck.
Sun Qingsheng laughed wildly, "Kill him, slice off his flesh and feed it to the dogs, ah!"
A small pebble flew through the air and knocked out Sun Qingsheng's front tooth...
