Outside the courtyard!
"This woman is useless! She can't even subdue an injured person!" Leng Feng shook his head helplessly!
Leng Ye reprimanded. "Stop talking nonsense! Just protect Qin Zhuangyuan! Act according to the situation!"
Fine!
He was originally an dark guard by his master's side, and now he's here to be an dark guard for this Qin Yun fellow!
The key is that the person doesn't know about this matter!
The front courtyard!
Qin Yun ordered Qin Yu to be released. Qin Yu, upon gaining freedom, quickly hid behind Guang Da.
Although she disliked admitting this father, he was her only backing at this moment!
Min Shi, standing nearby, felt a pang of sadness.
Guang Da no longer wanted her!
Now even her precious daughter didn't want her!
What sin had she committed? How could she have become involved with this father and daughter pair!
Min Shi remained silent. Anything she said now was useless.
She had suffered whipping and salt water treatment in the past two days.
Tonight, she had almost been violated by a vagrant.
Thinking back to just now... when she was brutally beaten by Qin Yuanzhang, the man she liked and her beloved daughter had not interceded for her.
In this life, she had done many wrongdoings, but she had never wronged Guang Da and Qin Yu!
Yet, this father and daughter pair hated her immensely!
At this moment, they had even abandoned her!
Min Shi closed her eyes in resignation.
This was her retribution.
"I have released the person. If you dare to harm Hong Fu even by a single thread! This official will ensure you have nowhere to be buried!" Qin Yu said coldly. kuAiδugg
Guang Da ignored Qin Yun's threat.
"None of you move. If anyone makes a move, I'll strangle this woman immediately!" Guang Da gripped Hong Fu's neck tightly, increasing the pressure.
Qin Yun took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down!
Engaging Guang Da head-on now would only result in mutual destruction!
She could feel it; if she truly pushed Guang Da to the brink, he would choose to drag them both down. He was not worthy of such a desperate struggle.
"Everyone, step back and let them go!" Qin Yun finally chose to compromise.
"Yu'er, run quickly, run as far as you can. Father will come to find you then!" Guang Da still cared deeply for Qin Yu!
At this moment, he could finally openly acknowledge his identity!
So many years had passed, and in their daily lives, he could only cautiously show his concern for Qin Yu!
Regardless of whether Qin Yu acknowledged him as her father, the fact that Qin Yu was his daughter was undeniable.
Qin Yu knew the situation was urgent and didn't delay. Under Guang Da's cover, without a word, she rushed towards the Qin mansion's main gate and fled.
Seeing Qin Yu escape safely, Guang Da lingered for another half hour. He had to give Qin Yu enough time to get away.
"Guang Da, what are you still dawdling for? Qin Yu has already run, she's safe. Please release Hong Fu!"
Guang Da sneered. "If I release her, I'll be walking into a dead end. I have to take her with me. I'll release her when I'm safe!"
Qin Yun sneered inwardly!
This Guang Da was indeed very clever!
Being able to maneuver so smoothly within the Qin mansion proved that this person was not simple!
Hong Fu, held hostage, dared not make any rash moves.
She was gambling that those two dark guards were hidden outside the courtyard!
Perhaps Qin Yu hadn't escaped at all, but had instead walked into a wolf's den!
This intricate plot within a plot was truly interesting!
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
Her life and death could only be entrusted to those two dark guards!
Seeing Qin Yun's dilemma, Hong Fu's heart softened.
"Master, Hong Fu is resilient! She won't die so easily! If this Guang Da wants to take me, let him!"
Hong Fu thought!
It would be difficult for those two dark guards to act within the courtyard. If this person could be lured outside, then the truth of this layered scheme could be revealed.
"Hong Fu...?" Qin Yun was still somewhat uneasy!
Qingshan glanced at Hong Fu speculatively!
He saw a hint of calculation in Hong Fu's eyes!
Qingshan frowned slightly!
What was Hong Fu plotting? Could it be that she had a contingency plan?
"Master, I trust Hong Fu!" Qingshan voiced his thoughts!
Qin Yun looked at Qingshan!
Qingshan was usually the most decisive. If even he thought it was feasible, it meant things hadn't reached the worst possible stage!
"Alright, you can take Hong Fu and leave! You must guarantee Hong Fu's safety afterward!"
"If Hong Fu is harmed even in the slightest, I will find you to the ends of the earth and tear you to pieces!"
Guang Da sneered and, carrying Hong Fu, leaped away, quickly flying out of the courtyard!
Outside the courtyard!
Leng Feng knocked Qin Yu unconscious and dumped her under a large tree!
He then stealthily advanced with Leng Ye!
Seeing Guang Da about to escape, Leng Ye drew three silver needles from his waist and shot them rapidly towards Guang Da!
His movements were swift, accurate, and fierce!
"Ah...!" Guang Da was hit!
His knees were pierced by the silver needles!
The hand holding Hong Fu was also pierced by the needles!
Hong Fu seized the opportunity and struck Guang Da with a palm!
At the same moment, Qingshan flashed out and, along with Hong Fu, subdued Guang Da!
When Qin Yun and her entourage arrived outside the courtyard!
Guang Da was once again captured!
All the servants inside the mansion applauded, and Qin Yun was relieved.
"Tie up Guang Da and bring him back to the Zhuangyuan Mansion!"
"Yes! Master!" Hong Fu and Qingshan said in unison!
"Hey, there's a figure under that tree!" one of the young servants was the first to spot Qin Yu under the large tree, but couldn't see clearly from a distance!
Qin Yun ordered a nearby servant to investigate!
As a result, everyone followed.
Upon seeing her, they were all stunned!
Isn't this Qin Yu? Didn't she run away? Why is she still here!
This person seemed to have fainted!
What exactly had happened just now?
Seeing that Qin Yu hadn't escaped, Guang Da was furious!
Just as he was about to curse, Hong Fu pressed his acupoint, rendering him mute!
"Shut up. Did you really think you and your daughter could escape? You're simply delusional!"
Hong Fu whispered into Guang Da's ear. "Our master is favored by heaven, so save your energy!"
"What did you just say to Guang Da?" Qingshan asked, narrowing his eyes.
"Nothing! Just telling him to behave himself!" Hong Fu shrugged, acting as if nothing had happened!
Qingshan didn't think so! He always felt that some force was operating in the shadows!
However, without evidence, his suspicions were merely conjecture!
But... judging by Hong Fu's attitude, she seemed to know more than he did!
When he appeared just now, Guang Da was already injured!
He only saw Hong Fu's counter-strike but hadn't noticed any other actions!
After scanning Guang Da's entire body, Qingshan finally discovered that Guang Da's knees were bleeding, and his left wrist was also injured!
"What happened just now? How did you escape from Guang Da's grasp?"
Hong Fu gave Qingshan a disdainful look. Could she explain?
Of course not!
In any case, the other party was here to help, so why ask so many questions?
"I have my ways of escaping. Why are you asking so much?"
"Does the Master know about this?" Qingshan narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing Hong Fu!
Hong Fu glanced towards Qin Yun. Qin Yun was currently examining Qin Yu under the large tree, her attention fully focused on Qin Yu. Only then did Hong Fu relax.
Impatiently, she said, "Qingshan, what do you mean? You can't deal with Guang Da yourself, yet you're here questioning me?"
