Chapter 400: The Angry Warlords of the Republic of China vs. the Educated and Well-mannered Overseas Daughter 56
This sense of trust was subtle, even exceeding her trust in Xu Danbin.
"Thanks."
When Kong Manqing's words came to her lips, only two dry words came out.
A few words are not enough, she prefers to speak with actions.
Quan Jiu patted her head and said, "It will get better and better in the future."
………
When the news that Si Jinnian returned to Jincheng alive spread, both the Fan and Du families were shocked. Knowing Si Jinnian's vindictive nature, Fan Sheng and Commander Du discussed it and decided to send troops.
On the night of Kong Manqing and Xu Danbin's wedding, a number of military camouflage vehicles broke into the city.
The South was originally occupied by the four families of Fan, Du, Si and Yan. Now that the four major military factions had formed alliances, the entire South was in chaos in an instant. The peace that had lasted for nearly eight months in the country was finally broken.
When he received the news, Si Jinnian was accompanying Quan Jiu to a wedding. He was unable to escort the newlyweds to the bridal chamber, so he said "sorry" and left in a hurry.
Quan Jiu did not go with him.
Today, China is facing internal and external troubles. There are wolves inside and tigers outside. All the harmony is an illusion. The chaotic times have not completely ended, and war will break out again sooner or later.
She had expected this day a long time ago, but she didn't expect it to come so soon.
Kong Manqing was wearing a fiery red wedding dress and looked at Quan Jiu with concern.
"I don't know how long it will take for this chaos to subside."
War is for permanent peace.
Xu Danbin supported Kong Manqing and was also very worried.
He thought that after he married Manqing, Si Jinnian and Quan Jiu would soon have their happy days together. However, he did not expect that before they could get married, Si Jinnian was caught up in the turmoil again.
Kong Manqing: "Miss Liu, if you have the chance in the future, please persuade the Third Master. Few warlords have a good ending in the end... You are still young, there is no need to sacrifice yourselves."
If it were her in the past, she would never urge Quan to drink. A good man has ambitions, serves the country and the people, and will never yield. It is a good thing that Si Jinnian is ambitious.
But after going through so many things, her edges were suddenly smoothed out. She was too small to shake any force. Living in the present and just for herself was enough.
Quan Jiu just smiled when he heard that.
If Si Jinnian was a coward, he would no longer be Si Jinnian.
………
As early as when the Fan and Du families sent people to assassinate him, Si Jinnian was mentally prepared. The first thing he did after returning to Jincheng was to send a telegram to Yan Zheng.
Tangcheng is some distance away from Jincheng. Yan Zheng started to gather his troops and set off as soon as he received his telegram. It would take at least three days to reach Jincheng.
But it was only the second day, and Fan Sheng and others couldn't wait any longer.
Xue Cheng hurriedly sent back a message: "Third Master, there are riots and conflicts in the four directions of Jincheng, east, south, west and north, and they are all quite large-scale."
As early as some time ago, the Fan family sent people to sneak into Jincheng, and the people who were causing trouble in Jincheng at this time were Fan Sheng's men.
Si Jinnian: "Send people to suppress it. As long as it doesn't get out of hand, don't worry about it."
Xue Cheng hesitated: "...Yan Zheng's men won't arrive until tomorrow afternoon at the earliest. I'm afraid they'll launch a surprise attack tonight."
Si Jinnian corrected him:
"Yes, there will be a surprise attack."
………
When Quan Jiu received the news that Kong Manqing and Xu Danbin were kidnapped, she was reading a military book in the living room. Hearing this, she put down the book and looked at the person in front of her.
"Have you found out who did it?"
The guard nodded: "It seems to be Commander Fan's men. Miss Liu, if you want to save them, you can ask the Third Master to come forward..."
Quan Jiu shook his head and waved him away.
She didn't expect Fan Sheng to focus his attention on Kong Manqing and the other one.
Si Jinnian must not be allowed to show up at this time. Once Si Jinnian shows up, it will directly confirm the fact that these two people are very important to him. Not only will Fan Sheng not let them go, but he will use this as a bargaining chip to force Si Jinnian to pay compensation.
Without hesitating for too long, Quan Jiu changed into a black windbreaker, stuffed a gun into his pocket, and left quietly through the back door.
001: "You want to save someone?"
Quan Jiu: "Do I look that stupid?"
She is not immortal. If she goes to rescue people alone, she will probably be attacked like a hornet's nest before she even sees Kong Manqing.
"Please check where Fan Lingyu is for me."
…
An hour later.
Quan Jiu looked at the woman who was knocked unconscious by her, with a troubled expression.
"If I had known this earlier, I would have brought a few more guards with me. I'm bringing them back, but I don't know what Si Jinnian will think..."
He had already doubted her identity, and now she brought Fan Lingyu back. Wouldn't Si Jinnian's suspicion of her be even greater?
001: "It's not difficult to explain. After all, Fan Lingyu didn't practice martial arts, and you had a gun, so it's not surprising that you subdued her."
Quan Jiu picked the man up and said, "Forget it. I've already beaten him. I can't possibly not take him back..."
She was about to go out when she heard footsteps outside the box.
"Xiaoyu, are you in there?" Du Haining knocked on the door.
Quan Jiu: “…”
Young lovers and the like are indeed the most disgusting.
Du Haining knocked on the door several times, but there was no movement from inside. Considering the current special situation, he calmly held the gun at his waist.
"Xiao Yu, are you there? Are you feeling unwell? Let me come in and see you."
"Xiaoyu, I'm coming in..."
Du Haining pushed the door open and walked in.
The room was silent.
The man narrowed his triangular eyes and looked around vigilantly. When his sight fell on the small bulge on the bed, he let out an inaudible sigh of relief.
"Xiaoyu, why are you still taking a nap at this time..."
He walked towards the bed.
When he sat down on the bed and prepared to cover her with the quilt, something hard suddenly broke through the quilt and pressed against his thigh.
"Don't move."
………
Xue Cheng looked at the unconscious Du Haining and Fan Lingyu, opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he just swallowed silently.
Too cruel.
The Fan family has only one child, Fan Lingyu.
Although Commander Du has more than one son, Du Haining is undoubtedly the one he values the most.
Xue Cheng looked at Quan Jiu in front of him, and the doubts in his heart kept piling up and magnifying.
Something seems to be wrong with Miss Liu.
"Ms. Liu, how did you find them?"
They never thought that Fan Lingyu and Du Haining would hide in Jincheng. For the two of them, there was no place more dangerous than Jincheng.
Of course, Quanjiu was using the 001 cheat, but she couldn't tell the truth. She said seriously:
"Oh, I just wanted to go out for some fresh air, and I didn't expect to run into you."
Xue Cheng: “…”
Just happened to meet him, what kind of incredible luck is this?
He actually didn't believe it, but he didn't dare to refute Quan Jiu in public, so he could only nod in disappointment.
Si Jinnian was directing the battle in his study. When he finally got a chance to rest, he heard the news brought by Xue Cheng.
