Shen Qingjun stood in the yard with a pale face.

His clothes were soaked and his trouser legs were covered in mud. He looked the most miserable Lu Xiaoyun had ever seen him.

She opened her mouth slightly and just as she was about to speak, she couldn't help coughing.

"Come in first." Lu Xiaoyun was panicked and quickly stepped out of the door and held her arm.

I can feel the coldness through my clothes.

"Ma Yiluan, do you have any medicine? Qingjun seems to have caught a cold!" As soon as Lu Xiaoyun supported Shen Qingjun into the room, he shouted at the top of his voice.

Ma Yilun trotted out and was stunned when he saw the frail Shen Qingjun. He then nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, yes."

When he turned around and went in to get the medicine, he couldn't help but ask, "Sister Shen, why are you alone? Where's Brother Ran?"

Shen Qingjun forced a smile and explained in a low voice: "He has more important things to do."

She didn't tell anyone about Jiang Ran's search for Bai Feifei. After all, whether the outcome would be good or bad was still an unknown until she actually found the person.

Ma Yilun turned his head and muttered, "Brother Ran is really generous. Isn't he afraid that these villagers will retaliate against you after he leaves?"

He felt that at this moment, the villagers of Luoyin Mountain might be more afraid of Jiang Ran than hate him, and they absolutely hated Shen Qingjun to the core.

Leaving Shen Qingjun here alone is like throwing her into a wolf's den.

The group of hungry wolves were certainly intimidated by Jiang Ran in the short term, but as time went on, who knew if they would reveal their true ferocity.

Because the person who did this was Jiang Ran, and the other party indirectly saved himself and others, Ma Yilun did not dare to complain too much.

"Qingjun, take the medicine first."

Lu Xiaoyun stopped Shen Qingjun from speaking and fed the medicine into her mouth.

Ma Yiluan looked at the two of them eagerly, anxious like an ant on hot pan, turning around and around.

While taking the medicine, Shen Qingjun, who was full of self-blame, managed to adjust his mentality, pursed his lips and said in a trembling voice: "I'm sorry, it's all my fault..."

Before she finished speaking, Ma Yilun interrupted her: "Don't put all the blame on yourself. Yan Wenxuan and I are also responsible."

"Not only did I fail to notice something was wrong in time, but I also failed to protect everyone."

He had completely different ideas from Tan Zishan and felt that this matter could not be blamed entirely on one person.

Shen Qingjun's intention was good, but no one could have predicted how vicious the villagers of Luoyinshan were.

Luo Yinshan's trip was indeed due to the other party's suggestion, but if the other few people had expressed strong opposition, it would be hard to say whether the trip would have taken place.

As for what happened after entering the mountain, they had no control over the direction.

Ma Yiluan asked himself whether it made sense to blame this accident on Shen Qingjun alone.

Shen Qingjun's return at this time made the only trace of unhappiness in his heart disappear.

No matter in appearance or status, they are vastly different from each other.

It is touching enough that a noble lady, whose status has been superior to countless people since birth, would take such a great risk to come back to find them.

Shen Qingjun raised her haggard eyes, her gaze lingering on Lu Xiaoyun and Ma Yiluan's faces for a moment. She noticed what they were thinking and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She could tell from their expressions that they were not pretending to comfort her.

Seeing that her mood had improved and the color on her face had become a little brighter, Ma Yiluan rekindled his curiosity and asked.

"Sister Shen, if Brother Ran just walked away like this, what if those villagers come to cause trouble again?"

Shen Qingjun's pretty face froze, and after a while she gently shook her head: "No, Luoyin Mountain is very safe now."

A soul-scorching fire in the heart of the sky burned all the people with evil thoughts in Luoyin Mountain to ashes. The remaining people all had good intentions and no one would have evil thoughts again.

Ma Yiluan was a little confused when he heard this.

However, thinking that Jiang Ran came here for Shen Qingjun, there was no reason to let her be in danger again, so he believed his words.

"How are Zishan and Wenxuan?"

Shen Qingjun was probably afraid that he would continue to ask for details, so she quickly changed the subject.

"Yan Wenxuan was hit on the head a few times and was knocked unconscious. He is awake now and there is no serious problem."

Ma Yilun didn't exaggerate the severity of the injury, lest Shen Qingjun's mood, which had just improved, become even more depressed again.

Lu Xiaoyun opened his mouth and looked at her hesitantly.

"What happened to Zishan?!"

Although Shen Qingjun was mocked and ridiculed by Tan Zishan in the village chief's house, she was more worried about the other party's situation at this moment.

She never takes other people's words too seriously.

Lu Xiaoyun was speechless for a moment. When he came to his senses, he only saw Shen Qingjun's back as he broke into the side room.

But when Shen Qingjun entered the room, she saw blood vomited all over the bedside, and clean clothes covered with blood thrown beside the bed.

Tan Zishan was naked, with her back and shoulders covered in bruises and bleeding. She looked listless and drowsy as she lay on her side.

Shen Qingjun's heart tightened, and he rushed forward, squatted down, and grabbed the other person's wrist.

Only then did she realize that the other person's body was burning hot, and the heat made her cold hands feel warm.

Tan Zishan suddenly felt a coolness flowing into her body from her wrist, and she even felt a little more spirited.

He forced his eyes open and looked at Shen Qingjun who was squatting beside the bed. His already dizzy head suddenly became unable to think straight.

"Why are you back?"

She was still conscious in the village chief's house. She clearly remembered that Jiang Ran must have taken Shen Qingjun away before he left. She didn't expect to see her again at this moment.

Tan Zishan felt mixed emotions for a moment.

After being caught by a group of villagers and locked in a basement, and hearing many terrifying words, she was already scared out of her wits.

Afterwards, he was covered with bruises due to the beating from Gou Dianzi. He was in a state of extreme anger and resentment, but when he heard Shen Qingjun's saintly speech, he couldn't help but say some resentful words.

Now that he was temporarily safe, he remembered Lu Xiaoyun's earnest words of comfort, and thought about what Shen Qingjun had done after he was arrested, and felt a little ashamed.

Perhaps she should blame Shen Qingjun for his overflowing kindness, but she shouldn't blame him for not having any regard for his relatives and friends.

If Shen Qingjun was really that kind of person, she might have been abused by Gou San or other villagers by now.

Tan Zishan knew very well that Lu Xiaoyun was kind-hearted but indecisive, and Ma Yilun thought too much about everything, or in other words, was a coward.

Yan Wenxuan has some vision, but he cannot make a desperate decision unless he is forced into a dead end.

Bai Feifei is even more carefree and easily trusts others.

If Shen Qingjun had not made the decision to look for her when the heavy rain was about to come, the others would probably have argued until midnight.

To some extent, although Jiang Ran was horrified and a group of villagers had to let her go, it was Shen Qingjun who grabbed her hand in time and prevented her from falling into the quagmire.

After understanding these truths, Tan Zishan would not apologize for her previous words, but she no longer had the determination to confront him.

What's more, she had a high fever and felt dizzy. When she saw Shen Qingjun, she had no energy to blame her. Instead, she was wondering, like Lu Xiaoyun, why she came back.
