"None of this was a coincidence. An Zichen knew that something had happened to the An family when we arrived, and then he disappeared. Then, An Ruchu came to our house and brought the news of the An family's internal strife. Finally, Lin Mengwu appeared and 'exposed' my identity. If An Zichen hadn't disappeared, my background wouldn't have been compromised, and Lin Mengwu wouldn't have been able to take advantage of the situation. How could the secret vault appear here? I'm afraid that the conspiracy against me has never stopped since I came here. "
In fact, she had more speculations, but it was useless to say it now.
Lin Mengwu must have been well-prepared to come to her.
If she hadn't come to defend the country, Lin Mengwu could have passed off as the real one.
She couldn't help but shiver. How many people knew about her background? What worried her more was that they would hurt her family and friends, and her son.
The only person she could trust was that her husband would be able to protect their child.
However, Long Tianhao wasn't completely safe.
She couldn't help but shiver at the thought of someone trying to harm them, even though she knew that her husband had the ability to protect himself.
"What's wrong? Someone, boil a pot of ginger tea! "
Lin Mengya's cold hands were held by a pair of soft and gentle hands.
Lin Mengya looked up and saw her Fourth Brother's gentle eyes.
"Nothing, I just remembered something from the past."
Gong Si's face was full of heartache as he gently rubbed her palms.
"Don't be afraid, I'll protect you from now on. No one will dare to hurt you."
Gong Si coaxed her in a low voice. Lin Mengya, who was preoccupied, couldn't hear the deep pity in his voice.
Gong Bin, on the other hand, glanced at Gong Si without batting an eyelid. His lowered eyes were filled with surprise.
Maybe he was thinking too much.
Normally, people wouldn't be able to eat anything if they were preoccupied.
But Lin Mengya was different. Maybe the memory of hunger was too deep in her, so she could eat two bowls of rice even if the sky fell down.
If something affected her appetite, it would be more serious than the sky falling down.
Perhaps it was because she had experienced so many things over the years, but she only panicked for a short while before slowly calming down.
Now, she patted her plump tummy to show that she was very satisfied.
"You lass, your appetite is almost catching up to your fourth brother's!"
Gong Bin liked her like this. Actually, Ya 'er's table manners were very elegant, and one look and he could tell that she was a well-educated woman.
Therefore, it was quite a feat for her to be able to maintain such good table manners even though she ate a lot.
"The world is big, but food is the most important. Besides, I'm eating my fourth brother, so there's no need to be polite. "
She threw out a sentence lightly, but it made the other two dumbfounded.
"Little girl, you're so smart! Sigh, if my nest is destroyed by you in the future, I can only admit that I deserve it! "
Gong Si looked at her and smiled helplessly. Gong Bin looked at him with a serious face.
"Fourth Brother, isn't he from the Xu Family? What's going on? Don't tell me you're involved with the Xu family? "
Seeing that Gong Bin's hair was about to stand up, Gong Si immediately explained.
"It's not as serious as you said. It's just that a few years ago, when I went out to travel, I disguised myself and happened to be in time for the Xu Family to recruit a shopkeeper here. At that time, our family was not in a good situation, and we could barely maintain a lot of things. Therefore, I could only fake my name and accept the job. "
He said it easily, but Lin Mengya and Gong Bin's hearts were in turmoil.
Lin Mengya was even more surprised. She patted Fourth Brother's shoulder heroically, leaned over and winked at him and said.
"It seems that my fourth brother is still hiding his strength. I'm afraid I'll have to rely on him in the future!"
Gong Si knew that she was teasing him, and couldn't help but gently knock on her smooth and full forehead with his fan.
"This lass, can't the Gong Family afford to raise you?"
Lin Mengya twitched her mouth. In fact, she felt a little strange. Since this was the Xu Family's territory, why did Fourth Brother talk about such a secret matter here as if it was his own family?
Sure enough, there were surprises everywhere in life.
After eating and drinking, Lin Mengya also thought of the second reason why she sneaked out.
Since they had agreed to draw out the mastermind, at least on the surface, Gong Bin still had to maintain the status quo.
Therefore, he pretended to be angry and left in a huff. Lin Mengya leaned against the window and closed her eyes to pretend to sleep. As expected, after Big Brother left, she saw a few people following him.
The mantis stalks the cicada. Who knows whether there is a oriole behind?
About ten minutes later, Lin Mengya and Gong Si sneaked out from the back door.
They were very cautious and didn't even bring any servants with them. They mingled on the street and didn't attract attention.
Soon, Gong Si led her left and right and found a residential house.
After a few gentle knocks on the door, someone quietly opened it from inside.
They immediately sneaked into the yard. Lin Mengya saw Baisu standing in front of her, and in the yard, there were a lot of people lying in disorder.
"Dead?"
Lin Mengya asked. Baisu nodded with cold eyes.
"It doesn't matter. This is the Xu Family's territory. The dead people seem to be from the Rong Family. The two families seem to be harmonious on the surface, but they are actually not. No one dares to say that they died here. "
After confirming that there were no people following them outside, Gong Si turned around.
However, he was not surprised.
The Golden Warehouse City was very chaotic, and there were countless deaths and injuries every year.
Especially the ships transporting slaves. Every time before entering the port, there would be a final selection.
Those who were worth selling would be sent to the market, and those who were worthless would be sunk to the bottom of the sea.
Here, human life could be measured by money.
The three of them bypassed the corpses and entered the house.
Chu Feng sat in a chair and saw the three of them coming in together. His beautiful face showed a little disappointment.
"Why, are you unhappy that we are alive?"
Lin Mengya didn't like him. But after hearing her words, Chu Feng nodded and then shook his head.
"I don't want you to die. It's just that I thought the person I was waiting for would come. After all, it was just a dream."
He muttered to himself, as if he was reading a poem.
Lin Mengya was very disgusted with him. If it weren't for the fact that Chu Feng was still useful, she wouldn't have wasted so much effort.
"The person you are waiting for will not come. I gave them a chance before. I asked them to redeem you at five times the price, but they refused. What do you expect?"
Her words were directed at Chu Feng. Seeing that person's face turned pale little by little, Lin Mengya knew that he was sad.
"I know you all hate me. Hate me for being an accomplice to the evil. Hate me for training men and women for the Rong family, for those people to play with. But how could I not hate myself? Today, if you want to kill me or cut me, I have no complaints. "
Being stared at by Chu Feng's sad eyes, even if Lin Mengya had thousands of vicious words in her heart, she actually couldn't say them.
This acting skill could simply leave the popular stars behind for ten miles.
She admitted that she did think that Chu Feng was evil, so she spoke out to teach him a lesson.
Now, why did she feel that this person looked so pitiful?
How could Gong Si not know that although his little sister was sometimes fierce, she was a person who could be persuaded but not cowed by force.
What's more, the Chu Feng he knew was originally a kind person.
Gong Si sighed, took out his folding fan, unfolded the fan, and handed it to Chu Feng with both hands.
"Brother Chu, do you still remember this?"
That person lowered his eyes and only glanced at the surface of the fan for a brief moment before nodding his head lightly.
"If it weren't for your mediation that day, I'm afraid that my nephew would have been killed. My little sister is a straightforward person. She just wanted to make you angry, and she didn't mean any harm. "
Huh? There was such a relationship?
Immediately, she thought of Yuan Ze. No wonder the brothers of the Gong family could find Yuan Ze successfully. It turned out that it was because of Chu Feng's help.
"Brother Chu, you are a noble and pure gentleman. Why do you have to associate with the Rong family?"
Hearing this, Chu Feng sighed again, but did not answer.
"Alright, this is not the place to talk. Let me ask you, Chu Feng, do you want to live? "
Lin Mengya had always been clear about kindness and hatred. Since Chu Feng had done the Gong family a favor, she would certainly not let her brothers be labeled as ungrateful.
"How, how can I still have the face to live?"
There was no anger in Chu Feng's words. Lin Mengya hated this kind of half-dead attitude.
She reached out her hand, pinched Chu Feng's jaw, and raised his face to look at her.
"You don't have the right to choose death. Only by living can you atone for your sins! Think about those innocent people who fell into the mire because of you. If you die, will they be free? "
It was also the first time that Chu Feng saw the woman's face clearly. Even in his eyes, she was a rare beauty. At this moment, there was 30% arrogance, 20% frivolity, and 50% sobriety in her eyes.
It was rare for him to see a woman's eyes without the slightest bit of pretentiousness, without any shyness or shyness.
She stared straight at him, not allowing him to deny it at all.
"Can, can I atone for my sins?"
He asked his fear with a trembling voice.
From the moment he knew the truth, countless people told him that he had committed a grave sin and had nowhere to escape.
"Of course you can! Everyone makes mistakes. Don't tell me you want to avoid the responsibility you have to bear? "
He looked at the woman in front of him in a daze, as if he had heard the voice of a fairy.
He also had a chance to atone for his sins, and he could also take responsibility for his mistakes.
For a moment, he felt that his life seemed to have another meaning.
"Fourth Elder Brother, is he stupid?"
Lin Mengya took a step back and pointed at Chu Feng, who was staring at her.
What she said just now was to arouse Chu Feng's sense of guilt. In this way, they could become teammates in the trench.
Why did it seem to be a little too much?
"I don't know. Anyway, Brother Chu must have his difficulties. Well, let's leave quickly. "
At this moment, Baisu, who was guarding outside the door, turned back and came in.
