Lin Mengya wanted to ask him about what happened at the banquet, but she knew that he was going to die today.
But when Li Ao was sent back to his room, Long Tianhao felt something and stood in front of her.
"What's wrong?"
The tacit understanding between the couple made her feel Long Tianhao's abnormality immediately.
She asked him with her eyes, only to find that his eyes suddenly became very sharp.
Soon, there was the sound of fighting outside.
Since she was kidnapped by Second Elder Gan, Long Tianhao paid more attention to her safety.
The sound didn't last long, and someone came to report.
"Your Highness, Madam, someone wanted to hurt Young Master Li just now, but we stopped him. Mr. Qing has gone to chase him."
Hearing this, Lin Mengya couldn't help but frown.
She trusted Qinghu's ability.
But this was the territory of the Sheng family. She was afraid that Qinghu would be in danger because he was unfamiliar with the place.
Fortunately, Long Tianhao also thought of this, and immediately ordered, "Ask someone who is familiar with this place to help. Remember, try not to disturb others."
"Yes."
After everything was arranged, Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao also went to Li Ao's room.
At this moment, after such a shock, Li Ao was mostly sober.
Fortunately, the people arranged by Long Tianhao reacted quickly, or they would only see a dead body now.
Seeing them coming, Li Ao wanted to stand up to greet them, but unfortunately, the wound on his body was pulled, and he almost fell down.
"All right, sit down. Where are you hurt? How is your injury now? "
Li Ao shook his head with a pale face.
"It's nothing serious, just a scratch."
He clutched his right arm, still in a state of shock.
At that time, he was thirsty and wanted to get up to get a glass of water.
Unexpectedly, when he just got up, a fatal dagger stabbed at him. If he hadn't reacted quickly, it would have been his chest that was cut!
Later, the guards outside heard the commotion and rushed in. The assassin was also straightforward, directly abandoning him and jumping out of the window.
Lin Mengya patted his shoulder to comfort him.
"Don't be afraid. We are here, and we will never let anything happen to you."
Li Ao calmed himself down and asked, "Do you know who did it?"
At that time he was in a daze, he only remembered that person's nimble and agile movements, as well as that person's quick and decisive movements.
Long Tianhao pondered for a while and then said, "My men haven't caught up with him yet, but it seems that he is a professional killer, not a man of sacrifice raised by his family."
Although assassins and death warriors both killed for their masters, their way of doing things was completely different.
Assassins only killed to complete their employer's mission. Even if they couldn't complete it, most of them would choose to save their lives and then look for an opportunity to act.
However, death warriors were different. They were already tools of their master.
As tools, they were not afraid of death. Once someone obstructed them, they would do everything in their power to complete the master's mission, even if it meant sacrificing their own lives.
Li Ao's face turned even uglier.
"It's really hard on them. They're actually willing to spend so much effort on me. I really want to know what I did to make them hate me so much! "
Lin Mengya also wanted to know.
However, there was no result from Qinghu's tracking, so they could only ask someone to bandage Li Ao's wound and send more men to protect them.
Qinghu didn't return to the inn until dawn.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao, who almost didn't sleep for the whole night, were still waiting for his news.
"I chased him to the old mansion of the Sheng Family, and then he disappeared. I brought my men to look for him several times, but I couldn't find him. It seems that the killer has something to do with the Sheng Family. "
Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao were quite surprised by the news brought by Qinghu.
"Are you sure that the killer really entered the Sheng Family?" Lin Mengya asked.
Qinghu's face turned slightly cold.
"I'm absolutely sure."
Although this killer had come for Li Ao, who could guarantee that the killer's next target wouldn't be his little lass?
Qinghu was also a killer, so he was very clear about these people's means.
At the thought that someone dared to hurt his woman, Qinghu really wanted to return to the world and teach these bastards a lesson!
"Why does the Sheng Family want to kill Li Ao?"
Lin Mengya couldn't figure it out.
On the surface, the Li Family and the Sheng Family had nothing to do with each other.
Moreover, Li Ao didn't receive any special attention from the Sheng Family at the banquet today.
Moreover, if the Sheng Family really wanted Li Ao dead, they didn't need to send the killer.
This was their territory. If they wanted someone dead, they probably had thousands of ways to do so.
"Although the killer entered the Sheng Family, it doesn't mean that the person who hired him is a member of the Sheng Family."
Long Tianhao already had his own speculation.
Lin Mengya thought about it when she heard what he said.
"You're right. But now is not the time to act rashly and alert the enemy. Today is a good day for the Sheng Family to choose a son-in-law. Let's go through this first. "
Not long after Qinghu came back, people started to clean up the streets.
Young Master Tu was going to marry into the Sheng Family, so the Sheng Family was more ostentatious than ordinary marrying off their daughter.
Early in the morning, people started to sprinkle water soaked with all kinds of spices on the streets.
The few main streets were overflowing with fragrance.
Even if the wedding was held in the evening, the Sheng family's wealth left many other families gasping in amazement.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao were not nervous. They slept soundly until noon, when they got up to dress up.
Cai Ru's skillful hands made Lin Mengya look decent.
She didn't wear any other accessories except for a purple gold crown.
After all, the bride tonight was the daughter of the Sheng Family. As a guest, she shouldn't be too noisy.
The moment she walked out, she saw the man sitting at the door waiting for her.
The man was dressed similar to her. He also wore a simple but dignified crown on his head, without any other accessories.
Long Tianhao looked at his wife closely.
"My wife is indeed the most beautiful." He praised sincerely.
Although they were an old couple, Lin Mengya couldn't help feeling happy.
However, she said stubbornly, "Well, I'm not the one getting married today. Why should I be so beautiful? Let's go now, shall we? "
Long Tianhao nodded and held her hand.
"Madam, please."
On the street, the guests came out of their residences and walked towards the Sheng Mansion in the center.
At this time, the bride's bridal sedan was paraded on the main streets of the city.
Li Ao was just a little frightened last night. After he woke up and drank the sedative Lin Mengya made for him, his complexion returned to normal.
Looking at the decorations on the street, he couldn't help feeling a little emotional.
When could he marry a wife?
"Don't worry when we reach the Sheng Mansion.
We'll be by your side at all times. We won't let those people take advantage of you. "
A gentle and comforting voice came from the side.
Li Ao looked at the couple. Although he nodded, he was even more envious in his heart.
At home, he had to watch Li Wu Shuang and Li Wu Shuang flirting. Outside, he had to watch this couple being so attached to each other.
Where was his wife? Where was she now?
But before he could finish sighing, he heard someone exclaiming on the street.
"The bride is coming!"
Everyone subconsciously raised their heads and looked over.
They saw a very exquisite and luxurious bridal sedan slowly coming from the corner of the street.
Everyone involuntarily stopped in their tracks and watched curiously.
It was rare to see the young lady of the Sheng Family in such an ostentatious way.
Naturally, everyone was curious about how beautiful the young lady of the Sheng Family was and how handsome the son-in-law of the Sheng Family was.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao had met Childe Tu before.
Although his complexion was not very good, the purple and red wedding clothes made him look even more like a gentleman.
Since he was the groom, he should be at his proudest moment.
But Lin Mengya felt that this groom didn't seem to be very happy.
And she didn't know why, but he even looked at them a few times.
She subconsciously looked at the people next to her.
Other than her man and Qinghu, there was only Li Ao.
Lin Mengya poked Li Ao, who was puzzled, and asked in a low voice, "Do you know the groom?"
Li Ao shook his head.
"I've never seen him before."
That was strange.
Since they had never seen him before, who was Childe Tu looking at?
Could it be that they were afraid that they would expose his dark history of almost becoming a woman?
But this matter had been sealed by the Gan Family.
And they would never say a word about it.
According to Second Elder Gan, Childe Tu probably wouldn't remember what had happened after he woke up.
That was strange. Why would Childe Tu do that?
But since the bridal sedan and the groom had already left, Lin Mengya didn't continue thinking about it. She followed everyone to the Sheng Mansion.
Because it was a formal wedding today, the number of guests was more than doubled compared to the previous day.
They didn't get any special invitations, and they just had to queue up to enter.
Fortunately, they didn't come out too late, and there were only three or four families ahead.
Just as they were waiting patiently, a few people came in from outside.
"You must be the famous Master of the Gong family, right? What a pleasure. My name is Chen Zixuan, and I feel that we are fated to meet. I wonder if I have the honor to invite you in with me. "
The one who spoke was a handsome young master of an aristocratic family.
Unfortunately, Lin Mengya wasn't interested in him and directly refused.
"No need. Thank you for your kindness."
But Chen Zixuan wasn't discouraged.
He glanced at Lin Mengya in what he thought was a covert way, and felt that it was such a pity that such a stunning beauty was married to a cripple.
Therefore, he maintained his elegant demeanor and said, "Master Gong, you don't have to be too wary of me. I'm just being kind. Besides, a beauty like you should be treated well. You shouldn't stand here and be exposed to the wind and the sun. "
Lin Mengya looked at the setting sun.
She thought that this guy's pick-up skills were terrible.
