Chu Li smiled.
The last time Siao Tieying stayed in Huay Public House for a period of time, he fell in love with the Eldest Lady of Huay Public House at first sight.
This was how the world worked. If Chu Li and Xiao Qi had the same temperament, it would be very difficult for them to fall in love at first sight. This was because rationality was more important than emotions. If there was a slight fluctuation in their emotions, they would suppress it and look at it calmly and rationally.
No matter what kind of feelings they had, they were all very weak at the beginning, unable to withstand such scrutiny.
Siao Tieying's personality was different from theirs. He was more emotional than rational. He knew that he could not fall in love with Song Yuning and that he was asking for trouble, but he still could not control himself.
"But Master, if the bride kidnapping is successful, have you thought of the consequences?" Chu Li asked.
Siao Tieying's face turned bitter.
He had been hesitating, hesitating, conflicted, and pained because he was worried about this.
If they really snatched the bride of the Ren Public House, the two Public Houses would really become enemies. The hatred of snatching a wife was a great shame and humiliation. The two Public Houses would definitely go to war.
Because of his own personal feelings, he had let the Protectors of the House of High Dukes die. He had become a sinner.
Chu Li looked at him. This was indeed a dilemma.
Love the country or love the beauty, or be loyal to himself and snatch his woman over, be happy with gratitude and revenge, or for the sake of the Protectors of the House of High Dukes, watch the woman he likes marry someone else, regret and suffer for the rest of his life.
The former would lead to an all-out war where they would fight to the death and many guards would die. However, the latter wouldn't shed all pretenses of cordiality. The conflict would be limited to a certain area and there wouldn't be too many casualties. They would endure the humiliation and increase their strength step by step. Once they were connected to the Prince's Mansion through marriage and their strength increased, they would settle the score.
Chu Li said, "Master Xiao Tieying, once the two families unite by marriage, even if we join the Imperial Residence of King An through marriage, we won't be able to do anything to them!"
"Sigh …!" Siao Tieying sighed.
Chu Li said, "If the bride kidnapping is successful and Lady Song marries into our Public House, what will happen to Huay Public House? Will they accept the status quo, or will they turn against us? "
Siao Tieying frowned and thought for a moment. In the end, he shook his head.
Chu Li said, "If we don't want Huay Public House to fall out with us, we have to show our strength and let them see the situation clearly. We also have to be neutral … I'm most afraid that Lu Yu Rong will use her tricks to force Huay Public House to go against us! "
"Lu Yu Rong can do it!" Siao Tieying gritted his teeth and said, "I've decided, I'll kidnap the bride!"
Chu Li nodded slowly.
It was rare for Eldest Young Master to be so decisive and choose to kidnap the bride.
Chu Li said, "Actually, there's another way. It's not so extreme."
Siao Tieying quickly asked, "What is it?"
"Before we get married. Grab Miss Song first. " Chu Li pondered and said, "Do it secretly and force Huay Public House to postpone the wedding date. With a buffer, they won't become enemies."
"That's a great idea!" Siao Tie Ying was overjoyed.
Chu Li said, "Master, please prepare a letter and a token. I will snatch Miss Song back."
"Will it work? How many people should we send? "
"I'll be fine by myself."
"Alright, alright, it's all up to you now!" Siao Tie Ying was very confident in Chu Li.
After some thought, he passed his waist tag to Chu Li and asked Linquan to serve him with a brush and ink. Then, he wrote a few words. He believed that Song Yuning would recognize him as soon as she saw those words.

Huay Public House Hall
Song Shi Ling grinned widely and beamed with joy, "Sister Lu, why did you come here personally?"
In front of him stood a graceful woman. Her face was covered by a white veil, revealing a pair of phoenix eyes. Her black eyebrows were full of charm. Anyone who saw her phoenix eyes would be intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.
Song Shi Ling felt his whole body go limp when he saw her clear eyes. He could not help but smile.
"I came a step earlier. To prevent any troublemakers, "Lu Yurong said lightly," To ensure that the wedding can be carried out smoothly. "
Her voice was gentle and had an inexplicable magnetism. It seemed to float into people's hearts. They could not help but listen to every word.
"You're afraid that the people from Yi Public House will cause trouble, right?" Song Shi Ling laughed, "There's no need for that. The last time Siao Tieying came, I talked to him. He's a man with a magnanimous heart. He won't play tricks."
"He won't, but others might not," Lu Yurong said.
"Others?" Song Shi Ling quickly invited her to sit down. He asked doubtfully, "Who else wants to cause trouble? Jing Public House? Yi Public House? They don't have the guts. Besides, they're so far away. They don't have that much free time! "
"It's better to be careful," Lu Yurong said lightly.
"Yes, Sister Lu is thoughtful. It's best to be careful," Song Shi Ling nodded quickly.
Lu Yurong raised her voice, "Aunt Shao!"
A middle-aged woman fluttered into the hall. She had a graceful figure and looked to be in her thirties. She was beautiful like a ripe peach, full and tempting. Every move she made had a seductive charm.
"My lady," she stood quietly in front of Lu Yurong.
Lu Yurong said, "Brother Song, this Aunt Shao is my personal Protector. Before the wedding, she will be protecting Sister Song Shi Ling to prevent anyone from plotting against her."
"This …" Song Shi Ling hesitated.
It was obvious that she did not trust the Protectors of the Public House. The Protectors of the Public House would definitely be dissatisfied.
Lu Yurong said lightly, "It's not that I don't trust the Protectors of your Public House. I'm adding more people, not replacing them. This is a critical time. I'm sure the Protectors of your Public House can understand, right?"
She narrowed her bright eyes, which were filled with authority.
"That's true." Song Shi Ling agreed and laughed, "With Protector Shao's personal protection, I'm completely relieved!"
"Sister Song Shi Ling will soon be my sister-in-law. Would I deliberately harm her?" Lu Yurong said, "Brother Song, please don't misunderstand my good intentions."
"I won't, I won't," Song Shi Ling quickly waved his hand.
Under Lu Yurong's clear eyes, he seemed to have become a young man. He was no longer smart and capable. He had always been reckless and straightforward. He forgot to wear the mask and was at a loss.
Lu Yurong said, "I don't know if there are any rooms in Sister Song Shi Ling's boudoir. Let Aunt Shao stay next to Sister Song Shi Ling. It's better for protection."
"Hehe, yes, yes," Song Shi Ling quickly said.
Lu Yurong said, "Thank you, Brother Song."
"You're welcome." Song Shi Ling struggled hard to get rid of the one-sided disadvantage. He forced himself to pull himself together and smiled, "Sister Lu, all these precautions are to guard against Chu Li, right?"
"Hmm —?" Lu Yurong's eyes narrowed and her gaze was cold.
Song Shi Ling felt that he had regained some of his disadvantage. He quickly smiled and said, "Chu Li's Light-body Technique is elusive. We can't guard against him!"
"I'd like to see his Light-body Technique!" Lu Yurong said coldly.
Song Shi Ling said, "This brat is too arrogant. He needs to be taught a lesson!"
Lu Yurong's eyes glanced at him coldly, "Brother Song Shi Ling, I'm tired too. I'll take my leave first."
"Alright, come with me." Song Shi Ling quickly said. He secretly gave himself a thumbs up. He was smart enough to find her Achilles' heel.
Song Shi Ling had carefully investigated Chu Li. He was also clear about the struggle between the two Public Houses.
