Liu Qinghan looked at us calmly, took a step back, and slowly turned to the side.

I opened my eyes wide in panic, and then I saw a bag arched high on his bed, and a blanket was also placed on the couch next to me, which mostly fell to the ground.

I just felt my breathing stop, and I saw the quilt squirming, slowly, a chicken coop seemed to have a head drilled out of it. I saw Li'er sitting cross-legged in the quilt, rubbing his eyes with one hand, and dazed: "Uncle San, what's the matter? It's so noisy..."

Li'er! She's fine!

A big stone fell in my heart and hurried over and hugged her: "Li'er!"

Before she woke up, she was suddenly held in my arms by me, a little confused. She was stunned for a long time before she said softly: "Mom, what's wrong? Is something wrong?"

It's fine if it's fine if it's fine!

I almost thankfully thought in my heart, looking down at her little face that was flushing with red sleep, and felt that the panic just now had been wiped out in an instant, so I smiled: "It's okay, I'm just here to see you. Are you sleeping well?"

"Um..." She thought for a while: "I fell asleep, I haven't finished listening to the stories that my third uncle told me just now."

"What story?"

“…forgot.”

I couldn't help but smile. When I turned around, I saw two men standing at the door looking at us. Both of them were dressed in white and long shawls. However, Pei Yuanxiu had a gentle smile, but Liu Qinghan's face seemed to be due to the mask, and it was still a little cold until now.

He glanced at us again, turned around and walked out.

Only then did Li'er seem to have reacted something and said to me: "Mom, what happened?"

"It's okay." I gently stroked her head: "Stay sleeping, my mother is here to guard you."

"Where is the third uncle?"

"He will be back in a while."

She blinked her eyes, as if she was still a little confused, but she was really sleepy. She retracted her back into the quilt with a "well" sound. I carefully covered her with a quilt and gave Pei Yuanxiu a wink. He nodded and then left and closed the door. The room became quiet again. Only some small voices came from outside, which could not disturb the girl. After a while, she fell asleep peacefully.

I kept guarding her. Although I had a false alarm just now, when I thought of any danger approaching and hurting her, the feeling still made my heart beat hard.

After a long time, the inn was still calm. I was sure that the thieves would not return. Finally, I breathed a sigh of relief and carefully got off the couch. As soon as I stood up, I saw the blanket half of it on the ground. I leaned over and picked it up and put it back again. Then I walked to the door. As soon as I opened the door, I saw the two servants outside the door, and when I saw me coming out, they all saluted me carefully: "Madam."

I whispered: "Protect Miss Li."

"yes."

At this time, the lights in the inn had been lit, making the place clear. It was also clear that the scene in the lobby downstairs was terrible. The tables and chairs were overturned, and the vases on the floor were fragments. Several people had already chased them out. Liu Qinghan and Pei Yuanxiu were both standing aside, looking at the big hole in the window.

I went downstairs and saw the mess in the lobby, and slowly walked over.

Pei Yuanxiu turned around and saw me and said, "How is Li'er?"

"She doesn't know what happened yet."

"Well, don't worry."

He nodded, reached out and held my hand and pulled me over. My clothes were barely neat, but I got up in the middle of the night and was frightened like that just now. His hands and feet were cold, but his palms were very warm, which made me less cold.

Liu Qinghan kept looking at the big hole in the window and was ecstatic until I walked to Pei Yuanxiu and he seemed to have reacted and looked back at me.

This look is a little longer.

However, before I could react, he turned around and continued to look at the big hole in the wall.

The moonlight shone in and shone on the half mask on his face, with a faint cold light, almost integrated with his cold eyes. I wondered why his attitude changed so much, and was still confused, when I suddenly thought of something, my heart skipped a beat.

Just now, I called him - Qinghan!

Because I was worried about Li'er, I lost my mouth and called him by his name.

After he lost his memory, his relationship with me has been ups and downs, and it has been bad and has been eased. That little alienation exists between us from beginning to end, which makes him believe that I and him have not yet gone further, but the call in a hurry just now... I don't know if he would doubt anything.

For a moment, my heart, which was originally a little relaxed, was once again thrust.

At this time, Pei Yuanxiu also walked over and looked out the window. It was silent outside. There was almost no clear view of anything in the dark street. It was so quiet that only the sound of the wind was left. Pei Yuanxiu looked at it, as if he was casually saying, "Didn't Lord Liu hear such a loud sound outside just now?"

"I heard it."

"Why didn't Lord Liu move until we called the door?"

"Li'er is by my side. Our mansion is worried that opening the door will lead the thief to come over, so he didn't move." As he said that, he glanced at me, turned his head to look at the hole, and said, "Li'er isn't scared."

I was stunned for a moment before I realized that he was asking me and coughed lightly: "It's okay. She's sleeping heavily."

"oh."

No one spoke any further in the following time. The inn became quiet, and only a few barkings came from outside, which made the more strange aura appear in the sudden tranquility of the night.

After a while, all the pursuers came back.

Wen Fengxi kept guarding the lobby. When the people came back, they went to his place to repay him. After hearing their humble words for a while, he turned around and walked towards us.

Liu Qinghan said: "What's going on?"

"Someone sneaked into the inn late at night and was hit by our people."

"Who? How many?"

"Only one of them came in, but it seems that there is a supporter outside, but I don't know which side it is."

"Have you caught it?"

Wen Fengxi shook his head.

Liu Qinghan's eyebrows frowned, and the folds between them turned into the character "Sichuan".

Wen Fengxi turned to look at us and said, "Most of the people who came with Mr. Pei today should be from the Yan family, right?"

Pei Yuanxiu nodded: "Yes."

After that, all four of us fell silent.

It is impossible to be people from Jiangnan. After all, Pei Yuanxiu and Li'er are both in this inn; Liu Qinghan and Wen Fengxi are naturally impossible, because they are the ones who bumped into the thief; if it is the people from Xichuan who took action, their own people have already followed Pei Yuanxiu, not to mention that they will enter Chengdu tomorrow. It can be said that life and death are all in one thought, so there is no need to sneak into these things in the middle of the night.

In other words, in addition to us, in addition to Liu Qinghan and Xichuan, there are also the fourth team?

They sneaked into this inn, were hit by our people, and then hurriedly ran away.

What is their purpose?

Why do we sneak into the inn where we stay? For whom or what?

Pei Yuanxiu looked back at the mess in the lobby and the guards who were already solemn, and suddenly remembered something and said, "Is General Wen's men fighting with the thief just now?"

"Yes."

"Is anyone injured?"

Wen Fengxi frowned slightly: "No."

Several of us looked at each other, and Wen Fengxi had turned around and said to the guards: "When you fought with the thief, did he see that he had a weapon?"

Those people shook their heads: "No."

In other words, it was not the one who came in to commit the crime.

Could it be that I came in-

I suddenly thought of something, walked to the center of the lobby with debris and wood chips all over the floor, and looked to the second floor, and saw that in each room above, except for Pei Yuanxiu and me, Wen Fengxi's door was open, and the other doors were closed.

But there was a room, and the door was hidden.

It was the room where Li'er and I slept before!

I didn't say anything and ran upstairs. The few of them followed me upstairs. As soon as I walked to the door, I pushed open the door. Although there was no light inside, I could still see at a glance that someone had come in from the room. When Li'er and I left here to find Liu Qinghan, I folded the quilt, but now the quilt is scattered on the ground.

They came for Li'er?!

I just felt cold sweat all over my sweat.

If Li'er's departure was just a false alarm before, then this time it would not be.

A thief entered the inn and entered Li'er's room. He was hit by Wen Fengxi's people and even attacked him.

Even those people have a response outside the inn, which must be no ordinary thief, but had already planned it.

Although Li'er is fine now, he realized that someone must be coveting her. The feeling still made me take a step back with a little weak feet and immediately was supported by Pei Yuanxiu who was standing behind me. I turned around and looked at him. He looked at the room and said nothing more. He just stroked my arm: "Don't worry."

"Li'er..."

"You and Li'er go to bed first, and we will deal with some things."

“…”

Liu Qinghan and Wen Fengxi stood behind him and saw everything in the room clearly. Neither of them said anything else. I walked to Liu Qinghan and said softly: "Mr. Liu, I'd better take Li'er back."

He nodded.

I followed him to his room. Li'er had no idea about the tension outside. He was sleeping carelessly on the bed. Seeing her like this, Liu Qinghan's face was also faintly smiling. When he walked to the bed, he glanced at the couch, and bent down to carry Li'er together with the quilt.

A large bloated ball, Li Er was nestled in the quilt, like a well-behaved kitten, shouting in a whisper: "Uncle San..."

Liu Qinghan smiled, then raised his head and handed Li'er carefully to my arms.
