Song Tingran pricked up her ears and heard a knock on the door. She sat up and Wen Li also sat up.

"My dear wife, it's not even daybreak yet. Why are you up so early?" Wen Li looked at Song Tingran blankly, and then looked towards the door. "Is there someone knocking on the door? I'll go check, my dear wife."

Wen Li put on his clothes and opened the door. "You, why are you here so late?"

Chen Xiangyuan didn't look into the house, but just shouted inside: "Miss Song, Yong'er has gone to the village head, and my people have caught up with him."

"Okay, I'll get up right away!"

Wen Li was also very nervous. He closed the door immediately, helped Song Tingran find clothes, and put on his own clothes in a hurry.

"Wen Li, home is safe, Chen Xiangyuan and I can go together."

"My dear wife, I can be a help if I go."

Song Tingran held Wen Li's hand and said, "Be good and stay at home. If you are scared, go to your brother's room. I don't think I will be back for long."

"Well, I'll wait for you here, my wife, please be safe."

"It's just Yong'er. There's no danger. Let's go."

After Song Tingran and Chen Xiangyuan left the house, Wen Li bravely locked the door from the inside. He didn't even light a lantern and just stood guard inside the door.

"Chen Xiangyuan, is Yong'er the only one there?"

"Well, Lu Zhong has been monitored by my people. Let's go see who Yong'er is contacting."

"it is good."

The two of them were very careful with every step they took, and they stayed close to the side so that they would not be easily discovered in the dark.

Chen Xiangyuan's men were also hiding in the darkness.

I saw Yong'er sitting under the statue at the entrance of the village, looking around and waiting for someone.

He waited here for a long time, but no one came. He yawned and pinched his thigh to refresh himself.

"Chen Xiangyuan, I think we have been discovered." Song Tingran said.

"I don't think so. The people I brought with me have all been strictly trained, and our position is also well hidden..."

Before he could finish his words, Yong'er stood up, ran around the statue several times, and then left.

The direction of departure is the direction of the shelter.

"Stop her, Miss Song?" Chen Xiangyuan was afraid that it was a plot set up by the enemy.

"Stop it. We are too passive if we keep waiting for the person behind us to make a move. Regardless of whether this is a test or not, I can't wait any longer."

"it is good."

Chen Xiangyuan walked out directly from the darkness, scaring Yong'er so much that he sat on the ground.

Song Tingran ran to the statue to check, but it was dark at night and there was only moonlight, so it was difficult to find anything.

She didn't believe that Yong'er would sit here for such a long time for no reason, nor did she believe that he would just run a few laps casually. There must be something wrong here.

After all, Yong'er is just a little slow in thinking, he is not a mental patient.

Just as Yong'er did just now, Song Tingran also sat down in the same position.

On the other side, Chen Xiangyuan held Yong'er and wouldn't let him leave. He was so scared that he kept crying and didn't dare to make a sound. He was subdued without even making a move.

A dark shadow flashed to Chen Xiangyuan's side, "Master, there is nothing unusual nearby, and I didn't see anyone coming to take over."

"Okay, keep watching and expand the scope a little. The important thing is to protect the safety of the Song family."

"Yes!"

The black shadow quickly disappeared, and Yong'er was frightened even more.

Song Tingran fumbled around here and indeed found a small hole at the bottom of the statue. She picked out a piece of paper from it.

After holding it tightly in her hand, she turned around a few times in the direction Yong'er ran, and after making sure there was nothing else to find, she walked to the vicinity of Chen Xiangyuan.

"Yong'er, it's so late, what are you doing out here?"

Yong'er was frightened and shook his head desperately, unable to speak clearly.

Song Tingran opened the note, it was blank!

"look!"

Chen Xiangyuan looked at it front and back and confirmed that it was a crumpled piece of white paper.

"Miss Song, this is too strange. The purpose of doing this is nothing more than exposing Lu Zhong."

Yong'er suddenly became very excited and kept repeating Lu Zhong's name.

"Ah, Lu Zhong, Lu Zhong, Brother Lu Zhong, what should I do, ah."

He was very emotional.

Chen Xiangyuan: "Yong'er is not right, it seems like he has been stimulated by something."

Song Tingran went to pull Yong'er, but he frowned in pain, opened his mouth and spit out a lot of blood, which sprayed all over her and Chen Xiangyuan.

"careful!"

Chen Xiangyuan pulled Song Tingran back. He had poison in him, and Yong'er fell down in front of them.

"Yong'er, what's wrong with you?" Song Tingran rushed over to see his condition.

Chen Xiangyuan also quickly squatted on the ground to check. After all, he had no experience in writing, so he immediately called his followers.

It was the man in black from before. He noticed the problem at a glance and pried open Yong'er's mouth.

"Master, someone has put poison on his teeth. If you bite hard, you will be poisoned."

The shadow follower took out a small pill and gave it to Yong'er.

"Will it be okay after eating it?" Song Tingran asked.

"Well, this can cure all kinds of poisons, but the person who did it was ruthless and used a lot of it. I'm afraid it will take some time to recover."

Chen Xiangyuan nodded and asked the black shadow to leave. He was ready to carry Yong'er back to the orphanage.

"Lu Zhong must have discovered that we discovered his secret, so he wants to kill Yong'er to silence him. But then he will have no one to use, so he should run away. Is he still afraid of something? This is so strange!"

Song Tingran's mind was in a mess, but since Lu Zhong had already taken action, he would definitely not tolerate him!

Before the two of them reached the embroidery workshop, they saw a person rushing out from the small path between the embroidery workshop and the Song family's house.

"Help! Someone's killing someone! Song Tingran, the owner of the Song Family Embroidery Workshop, is killing someone!"

The voice was familiar, it was Lu Zhong. There were some dark shadows behind him, but no one dared to act rashly.

"What's going on?" Chen Xiangyuan asked.

"Master, there is someone on Lu Zhong's bed. He looks exactly like him. He just escaped and has help. Our people went to chase him. He was thrown down from the roof." said the black shadow.

At the same time, Lu Zhong was still shouting, and the doors of the shelter and the embroidery workshop were opened.

Even the Song family lit up.

"Leave some of the men behind, and let the rest go after them. We must get them back!"

"Yes!"

Song Tingran called Anfu and asked him to take the unconscious Yonger in first.

Luo Mingyue and Gu Yan stood at the door of the embroidery workshop, at a loss, while Wen Li was the first to run out.

"My dear wife, why are you covered in blood? You are injured!"

"Wen Li, calm down. I'm not injured. Yong Er is injured. I'm fine."

Wen Li wiped the blood off Song Tingran's body, but he couldn't wipe it clean no matter how hard he tried.

"Wife, I'll go home with you to change clothes. This is too scary. I'll wash it now."

Lu Zhong looked at Song Tingran fiercely, "This is evidence. You killed someone. You appear to be a good person, but in fact you are an out-and-out murderer, a bad person!"

Even if he knew nothing, Wen Li would never believe what Lu Zhong said.

"You are slandering me! My wife would never kill anyone. She was the one who saved you. Do you have any conscience?"
