Chapter 320 – Deceived by a Trusted Sister

“Young master, should we report it to the police?” The accompanying boy nervously asked Wei Yichen.

Looking at the situation, the second young lady is afraid that something bad has happened to her.

“No. You instruct all the people who come out to search in the mansion to say that the second young lady has already been found, and was delayed by a detour to the home of a fellow student, so that they need not look for it any longer, and can go back to the mansion to rest. And after that you bring along the guards at home who have a death contract, and then go out with me.” Wei Yi Chen busily instructed.

Although he was worried, Wei Yichen’s reasoning was still intact; if he reported to the police at such a time, even if his sister could be saved, his reputation would be damaged.

So not only can he not report it to the police, he can’t vocalize it.

He had to be careful how he handled this, not only to get his sister back, but also to protect her reputation from being damaged as much as possible.

After Wei Yi-chen also called the shopkeeper over, sternly warned him that this matter can not leak half the wind, or take him to be asked.

The shopkeeper is not dare to cause trouble, at the beginning he did not dare to speak out, this moment saw Wei Yi Chen’s battle also know that the other party is a background will not dare even more.

But anyone who has an official position in his family is a merchant citizen like him who can’t afford to mess with him, so he agreed to do it again and again.

Half an hour later, Wei Yichen’s boy returned and also brought back five of the family’s loyal guards.

Subsequently, a total of six people, including Wei Yi-chen’s personal bodyguard, follow Wei Yi-chen along the traces and clues left behind by the thieves and begin to pursue Wei Qingwan’s whereabouts.

Inside the dark hut, Wei Qingwan woke up from her stupor and subconsciously stretched out her arms and legs, only to realize that her arms and legs were bound behind her.

Some pain came from her body immediately afterward, waking her up to full consciousness.

Wei Qingwan looked around, it was a yellow clay paste hut, small and damp.

It was dark everywhere, with only some moonlight coming through a very small window above one of the side walls.

The ground beneath him was wet and cold, and although it was July, it was unseasonably cool in this room.

There was some straw on the ground, but the dampness did nothing to insulate it from the chilly feeling that came up from the ground.

Wei Qingwan was so scared that her body subconsciously curled up and she couldn’t help but choke.

“Don’t cry, it’s no use crying.”

A familiar man’s voice came from beside her, and Wei Qingwan hurriedly turned her head, and through the faint moonlight, saw that it was the man she adored.

“Mr. Qi, who exactly are they and why did they kidnap us here?” Wei Qingwan nervously asked the man.

She entered that room then as usual, and just as she saw Mr. Qi a group of people broke in through the window and took both her and Mr. Qi away.

In the midst of her struggle she felt a sharp pain coming from the back of her neck, followed closely by unconsciousness.

Wei Qingwan, who had never encountered such a thing before, could not help but fall into a state of shocked bewilderment.

“Heh, the one who dares to touch me is probably only that guy within today’s Taizhou Prefecture.” Qi Zhen snorted coldly.

“Mr. Qi, who is the person you are talking about?” Wei Qingwan couldn’t understand any of this.

“It’s better you don’t know, or you’ll die even worse.”

The word “death” made Wei Qingwan shaken, and she felt cold all over her body, but now she only felt that her blood was cold.

She inquired Qi Zhen in horror, “Mr. Qi, are you saying that we will all die here?”

Qi Zhen looked at Wei Qing Wan, the moonlight just hit her face and reflected in her tear-filled eyes.

This woman is very beautiful, especially can arouse men’s protective desire, so he also fell in love with her at first sight.

He has always loved beauty, in the capital has seen countless beautiful, but also the first time to meet such a great color, so will again and again and her rendezvous.

It is just that this horny nature of his is ultimately a mistake, giving the other side an opportunity to take advantage of the situation today.

“You don’t have to worry too much, my people know that I was robbed should track me down soon, that person’s roots here are thin, there shouldn’t be many people guarding us, my people will be able to handle it.” Qi Zhen explained.

“Will that person who captured us kill us before the Duke’s men find us?” Wei Qingwan asked again worriedly.

“He shouldn’t, his ultimate goal isn’t me, so he’ll definitely want to keep me, better yet, capture me and sue me in the capital before he’ll be willing to kill me just like that.” Qi Zhen said with great certainty.

After that, Qi Zhen said to Wei Qingwan, “Don’t cry, your crying makes my heart ache, it’s not my fault for letting you suffer with me this time, I’ll make it up to you when I’m out of danger.”

Wei Qingwan bit her lip and shook her head, “I don’t blame Eunuch Qi, I’m just worried about Eunuch Qi, and I don’t want you to be hurt, Eunuch.”

“Don’t worry, if I die within the territory of Taizhou Prefecture, the entire Taizhou Prefecture will have to suffer with me.” Qi Zhen’s tone was filled with confidence.

Only then did Wei Qingwan’s mood calm down a lot, then she looked at Qi Zhen and said, “Do you have any injuries anywhere right now, Mr. Qi?”

“I’m fine, a few skin wounds, nothing to worry about.”

Immediately after that, Qi Zhen moved his body so that his body was next to Wei Qingwan’s, “I’ll lean closer to you, and you’ll be warmer.”

Wei Qingwan nodded slightly before slowly leaning her head towards Qi Zhen’s body.

Qi Zhen looked at the beautiful woman beside him and sighed that although he was in such a sorry state, but with a beautiful woman beside him, he was not false to his reputation of being a flirt.

###

In the latter part of the night, the sound of commotion suddenly came from outside, and Qi Zhen’s consciousness immediately woke up before looking expectantly at the door of the room.

After a while the door to the room opened, but it wasn’t the person he expected to come to his rescue.

A man, also bound and gagged, was thrown in roughly.

Because of the dim light, Qi Zhen couldn’t see the man’s appearance for the first time until Wei Qingwan, who was beside him, called out to the man.

“Big brother?”

Hearing the sound, Wei Yi Chen, who had fallen to the ground, also slowly raised his head, and then struggled to change his position with very difficult movements.

After changing into a sitting position, Wei Yi Chen looked at the man and woman in front of him.

Men he didn’t recognize, but had previously glimpsed at the back of the Anzhou Academy;

The woman he was familiar with couldn’t be more familiar, it was his sister Wei Qingwan who he loved and regarded as a treasure.

In this instant, Wei Yi Chen felt that his heart had suffered such a heavy blow that it made him forget about the physical pain.

After meeting her eyes, Wei Qingwan sheepishly lowered her head, not daring to look directly at the gaze Wei Yichen cast over.

Qi Zhen also identified the man’s identity after Wei Qingwan called out, and it turned out that he was the eldest son of Wei Mingting, the deputy guard of the Anti-Japanese Army of Taizhou Prefecture.

It looks like he came looking for his sister after learning she was missing.

“You are somewhat capable, to have managed to find this place before my people.” Qi Zhen commented on Wei Yi Chen.
