‘But there are similarities. Perhaps I saw wrongly?” Ji Guihua chuckled and handed the bowl of fried meatballs to Zhao Lanhua. “It’s getting late. I’ll go back first!

‘Aunt Guihua, wait!”

Shen Yao hurriedly walked out and asked anxiously, “May I ask which alley in the county city you saw that girl who looked like Ah Tao?”

“It’s the green stone alley next to Hongxing Restaurant!”

If you walked out of Hongxing Restaurant and turned left into the green stone alley, When you walked out, you could see the Octagonal Guests.

Although that alley was a shortcut, if someone had ambushed in the alley in advance—

Thinking of what Aunt Guihua had said, Shen Yao was basically certain.

…..
Ah Tao must have been injured and even injured her legs!

‘Mother, I want to go to the county city!”

Without waiting for Zhao Lanhua to answer, Shen Yao had already quickly left the house. He took a big stride and got into the carriage, driving it straight to the county city!

On the other side.

Qin Minghong personally cooked a bowl of vegetable porridge for Ji Zhao.

“I wanted to make more delicious food, but my culinary skills are limited.” Qin Minghong looked at Ji Zhao and felt guilty for no reason. “But I’ve already tried it just now. It should taste okay.”

‘Brother Qin.” Ji Zhao couldn’t help but laugh when she saw his disheveled face. ‘Do you want to wash your face?

‘Huh?”

Qin Minghong raised his eyebrows in confusion, but he still returned to the kitchen.

He couldn’t help smiling himself as he looked at the gray face reflected in the water.

Fifteen minutes later, Ji Zhao finished the half-cooked vegetable porridge. ‘How does it taste?” Qin Minghong looked into her eyes and asked impatiently.

‘Brother Qin, have you cooked before?

Seeing him shake his head, Ji Zhao praised him from the bottom of her heart. ‘Brother Qin, it’s already not bad for you to be able to cook like this on your first time.’

“1f you like it, I’ll learn a few more dishes tomorrow.”

‘Brother Qin, actually, you don’t have to…” Ji Zhao took a deep breath, then looked into his eyes and explained seriously, “Brother Qin, the person I like is Shen Yao, so you really don’t have to worry about me. I’m really grateful that you saved me today. Whether it’s gratitude or thanks, it’s not love.”

‘Ah Tao,” Qin Minghong put away the smile on his face and said seriously, “In your eyes, must I have ulterior motives just because I like someone?

‘Huh?”

‘Although you and Shen Yao are husband and wife now, no one knows what will happen in the future, right?” Qin Minghong chuckled. ‘How do you know that Shen Yao won’t let you down in this life?”

“1 won’t let her down!”

At this moment, a man’s resolute voice suddenly sounded!

It was powerful and resonating!

‘Shen Yao? Why are you here?”

Ji Zhao did not expect Shen Yao to suddenly appear. He was extremely surprised!

However, she did not realize that Shen Yao had already seen the wound on her face.

Shen Yao walked quickly to her and bent down to get closer. When he saw the wound on her face, his heart ached. ‘Ah Tao, the wound on your face?

‘No, it’s nothing.” In her panic, Ji Zhao was about to raise her hand to cover her face when she accidentally pulled on the wound on her shoulder and could not help but gasp.

‘Her face and shoulders are injured,” Qin Minghong suddenly said. “She sprained her ankle earlier, but I’ve already asked the doctor to fix her bones. For safety reasons, it’s best for her to stay in the restaurant for the night.’

‘Shen Yao, I was surrounded by Ji Huai and his men. It was Brother Qin who saved me.” Ji Zhao tugged at Shen Yao’s sleeve and explained softly.

She felt the coldness emanating from Shen Yao’s body and felt inexplicably guilty.

Shen Yao turned around and looked into Qin Minghong’s eyes. He thanked him sincerely.

‘You’re welcome. After all, I like Ah Tao very much.”

Qin Minghong deliberately emphasized the word ‘like’. Unfortunately, he could not see any emotions in Shen Yao’s eyes. There was only a terrifying coldness in his black eyes.

‘Ah Tao, since Shen Yao is here, I’ll take my leave first.” Qin Minghong smiled and waved at Ji Zhao.

Qin Minghong left. The moment he left, he felt very disappointed.

Shen Yao came earlier than he had expected!

What a pity.

Ji Zhao looked at Shen Yao, who was standing silently at the side, and asked nervously, “Shen Yao, are you angry? I…”

‘Before you left today, you promised me that you wouldn’t act rashly.”

“I really didn’t act rashly. I didn’t expect Ji Huai to be so disgusting. He actually ambushed me in the alley in advance. wasn’t careful…”

‘The Green Stone Alley is a shortcut to the Octagonal Guests, but it’s not the way out of the city.” Shen Yao looked into her eyes and said word by word, “Why did you go to the Octagonal Guests?”

Ji Zhao lowered her head silently and said gloomily, “1 want to ask Brother

Qin to help me find out who’s behind Ji Huai.”

Shen Yao only felt extremely complicated. He could not tell if that emotion was disappointment or depression.

“It’s late. Rest early.

“What about you?” Ji Zhao blurted out subconsciously.

“1’11 stay with you.”

..Okay.” Ji Zhao nodded obediently.

The two of them went to a guest room on the second floor of the restaurant. After washing up, Ji Zhao lay on the bed and fell asleep.

At the same time, Shen Yao walked out of the restaurant. Just as he was about to head in the direction of the Qin Residence, he realized that Qin Minghong was standing under the roof not far away.

The snowy night was silent as the two men stared at each other. There seemed to be flames in the air.

“Where is Ji Huai?” Shen Yao walked up to him step by step and asked in a low voice.

“Why should I tell you?” Qin Minghong crossed his arms and smiled instead of answering.

‘Even if you don’t tell me, I can find out.”

Shen Yao looked at him deeply. Just as he was about to turn around—

‘Wait!” Qin Minghong suddenly shouted, “Do you have a grudge with the Sun family of Thunder Mountain County?

‘The Sun family?” Shen Yao narrowed his eyes dangerously.

‘Looks like Ah Tao hasn’t told you yet. The reason why Ji Huai was released was because of Lord Sun from Thunder Mountain County.” Qin Minghong suddenly smiled. “How could Ah Tao not tell you such an important thing?”

‘Forget it, I won’t tease you anymore. Come with me.” Qin Minghong sighed softly. “I’ve locked Ji Huai up.”

A winery adjacent to Hongxing Restaurant was also the Qin family’s property, and Ji Huai was locked in the backyard of this winery.

‘He’s on the verge of death.” The moment he pushed open the door, the smell of blood assaulted his face. It was nauseating.

Qin Minghong pinched his nose in disgust. “He’s still breathing.. How are you going to deal with it?”
