From the looks of it, this group of people was going to be her first victims. Although it would be easy to deal with them, she felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
"Hey, the one hiding over there. Give me a reason to save you, or tell me what you're worth."
The silver pistol twirled between her jade-white fingers. Mixed with the sunlight that shone in, it had a magnificent charm.
It was as if she was luring travelers who didn't know their way home to be like moths to a flame.
Huddled in a corner, Liang Hui held the gun tightly in his hand as he listened to the approaching footsteps. His eyes flashed with determination, but he was startled by the sudden sound.
When he came in, he did find people here, but weren't they all asleep? How could it be?
"If you don't speak, that group of people will come in." Xunmi looked at the door of the carriage with her chin propped up. She could vaguely see the figures coming this way.
Liang Hui wasn't sure, but the mission he carried and the things in his arms made it so that he couldn't die.
He got up from the ground, flipped over, and landed one seat away from Xunmi.
He looked at the person who spoke and was about to speak, but he couldn't help but wonder if this person, who looked like a rich family's daughter, was really worth his gamble.
His thoughts turned in an instant. He threw a roll of black stuff in his hand to Xunmi and reminded her, "Keep it safe.
"Please take good care of it. If possible, please hand it over to Marshal Feng Yilin or Adjutant Min Qiyang, who is guarding the central district."
He didn't know why he trusted this person, but when he met her eyes, all his anxiety disappeared.
He quickly got up, returned to his original position, and prepared to jump out of the window.
Just as he took a step forward, he was stopped.
"Don't run. You can't escape, and we won't leave quietly. After all, the blood on you is enough to make us guilty."
When this person mentioned Feng Yilin, Xunmi couldn't help but think, What a lucky bastard.
The people they met on the way to save were on their side.
Liang Hui paused and turned to look at the woman sitting by the window. She was wearing a white short skirt, a red cloak, and a gauze hat. Her face was calm and she didn't look panicked at all.
"What can you do? I …"
"Don't waste your energy. Otherwise, I'll have to ask my people to take care of you when you're half dead."
"Xin Xin, bring him to the back and bandage him up. The rest of you, leave."
Xunmi interrupted Liang Hui's words. She picked up the flower tea in front of her and gently blew at the osmanthus flowers on the surface of the water.
Xin Xin followed Xunmi's instructions without asking why, but Liang Hui was not so calm.
His dirty face made his anxiousness look very comical.
"Don't worry. Since our Miss said so, she will definitely be fine."
Xin Xin supported Liang Hui as they walked back. She was still in the mood to comfort Liang Hui softly. Clearly, she had been brainwashed by Xunmi.
Not long after, the carriage door was kicked open with a bang. "Did you see a …"
The man in the lead, who was wearing a hat and a black cardigan and holding a pistol, walked in first. When he saw the woman leisurely drinking tea by the window, his words stopped abruptly.
Looking around, there was only one person at the front of the carriage. There were a few people at the back, but he couldn't see their faces clearly.
He led the men over, but as soon as they walked past Xunmi, their legs went weak and they fell to the ground.
From the beginning to the end, Xunmi sat there, drinking tea with a calm expression.
Liang Hui, who was behind them, was inexplicably shocked. This … this … how did she do it?
The men on the ground glared at Xunmi in horror as if they had seen a ghost.
They wanted to open their mouths, but they found that their tongues were numb. The fear in their hearts grew even more.
"You over there, who are these people?" Xunmi took a sip of tea and asked calmly.
If they were still useful, she would bring them to Feng Yilin.
Liang Hui put away his shock and tried to calm down. "They are Sato's lackeys. This time, Sato has planted some secret spies to bomb the three central provinces."
"The thing I gave you contains the specific layout, but I was discovered when I stole it."
After saying that, Liang Hui felt terrible. How could he tell such an important thing to a person he had just met so easily?
He opened his mouth to salvage the situation, but was choked by the words of the people beside him.
"Don't worry, our young mistress is not a bad person. She is the official wife of the Marshal. Although our young mistress is considering divorcing him, she hasn't given him the divorce papers yet."
Xin Xin's manner of speaking shocked Liang Hui to the core, and he almost went into shock.
What did he just hear? The Marshal was married, and Madam wanted to divorce him?
Oh, heavens, this is too shocking.
Xunmi ignored the man whose soul had left him. She called the servants to tie up the men on the ground.
The knockout powder was very strong, and they would be paralyzed for at least four or five days.
Although it was painful, the result was good. The S-grade plane was a trap. Apart from the items in her bag, everything she bought in the shop could only be used on herself.
Fortunately, the knockout powder she made was as good as the one produced by the system.
The rest of the journey was very quiet. At noon on the third day, the train arrived at the central station.
Min Qiyang stood at the door, feeling conflicted. He kept looking at the people coming out.
When he thought of the Marshal's dark face when he received the telegram, he couldn't help but wail. Why was Xunmi here?
Of all times, she chose this time. She really … hoped she wouldn't cause trouble.
"Adjutant Min, you're here to pick up our young mistress. Where's the Marshal?"
After looking around and seeing no one, he pursed his lips. "Ask a few people to go get something from the young mistress."
Xin Xin brought Liang Hui down first to ask for help. The servants outlined the things, but the traitors …
Min Qiyang remembered the people in front of him. He pointed a few people in to help and said, "The Marshal has something to do. I'm here to pick up Madam."
This time, before Xin Xin could speak, Liang Hui sighed. "No wonder Miss Qi is going to divorce the Marshal."
Although his voice was low, Min Qiyang still heard it. He was shocked.
"Let's go. We'll talk when we get back. Remember to ask Feng Yilin to wait. I have something to ask him."
Xunmi, who happened to come over, also heard this. She spoke without any emotion and walked past them.
This time, Min Qiyang was really surprised. Was this person with a cold and dangerous aura really the young mistress of the Qi family he knew?
Min Qiyang, who wanted to brush her off, couldn't help but become serious.
As soon as they arrived at the military area, Xunmi asked Min Qiyang to take her to the meeting place.
"What, you don't want to?" She crossed her arms and looked at the man in front of her.
"What do you want? This is the military area, not the Taohua Province. Xunmi Qi, pay attention to your status. Otherwise, don't blame me for driving you out."
A stern and magnetic voice came from behind them. The impatience in his voice was clear.
XunMi turned her head to look at the man and the woman beside him. Her lips curved into a smile.
"Very well, Feng Yilin. It seems that you're going to leave a divorce letter."
