Qin Zhenzhen nodded in agreement. “You’re right. We must report this to the governmental office!”
“But for now, our priority should be getting him back home safely.”
“When the chief arrives, please inform him about the situation. If he needs more details, tell him to visit our home.”
The villagers all supported Qin Zhenzhen’s decision.
At this point, Qin Silong had already torn off the cloth and expertly bandaged his wound. He was well-versed in first aid.
Though still pale, Qin Silong’s spirits were rising, and he no longer feared for his life. He even had the energy to ask Qin Silong various questions.
“Is the wound really not deep? I felt like I was dying at first, but now it seems like it’s not a big issue.”
Qin Silong also found this peculiar. He recalled the time when Qin Zhenzhen had a forehead injury. Despite the significant bleeding, the wound turned out to be just a shallow scar.
Was Zhenzhen hiding something from him?
But he decided not to voice his suspicions. Instead, he playfully teased Qin Zhenzhen, “You were scared out of your wits, yet the wound is not deep at all!” This remark embarrassed Qin Zhenzhen.
Su Ping chimed in, explaining, “I never expected to become so timid after getting injured.. ‘
He looked rather comical.
Suppressing his laughter, Qin Silong responded seriously, “You’re not a coward at all. In fact, you’re incredibly brave. I must thank you for saving my life.”
If the knife had stabbed him, it would have hit him right in the heart. Qin Silong realized that he owed Su Ping his life this time, and he felt the need to express his gratitude.
Su Ping, who had now calmed down, spoke in a business-like tone, “What are you thanking me for? I would have saved you even if you were just a friend. You’re my brother’s brother-in-law, and I would have done anything to get you out of danger!”
Qin Silong reassessed Su Ping and believed he was sincere. That was just who he was – a loyal person who valued friendship and would do anything for his friends. Such loyalty and fierceness were traits shaped by the environment they were born into.
Setting those thoughts aside, Qin Silong helped Su Ping to his feet and offered, “I’ll carry you home.”
Su Ping playfully joked, “Can you handle it? I’m not light!”
“Don’t underestimate me; get on my back now!” replied Qin Silong.
Qin Zhenzhen followed closely behind them, making sure to take the knife with her. She thought they might be able to trace the culprit through it. She was certain that those men were disguised as robbers, but their true intention was to kidnap her.
The question remained: who sent them?
The prime suspects were either the Madame of the Marquis’ Mansion or the Jiang Family from the capital. However, Qin Zhenzhen leaned towards the latter as being more likely.
She suspected that the Jiang Family intended to kidnap her to determine if she possessed any special abilities or physique. If she did, they would never let her go.
The reason was that she was already married to Su Bin, and if she indeed had something valuable, they would return her to the Jiang Family openly rather than handing her over to the palace.
Additionally, there was the matter of her virginity, which was widely known she had not slept with Su Bin yet. This fact held significance and seemed to play a part in their sinister plans.
As the realization dawned on Qin Zhenzhen that she could have been kidnapped and given a new identity to serve the interests of the Jiang Family, a sense of ruthlessness consumed her.
The thought of being exploited in such a manner made her furious. If the Jiang Family was indeed behind this, she wouldn’t let them off so easily. She would take a stand and fight back with all her strength..
