Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Before Liu Mingkun could react, Li Xiaoran whipped him.
After Li Xiaoran whipped him, Li Xiaoqing also picked up a long bamboo pole and hit Liu Mingkun.
At this moment, Liu Mingkun was dizzy from the pain, but he still didn’t understand what was going on.
Li Xiaoran and Li Xiaoqing didn’t speak at this moment, but the sisters were furious.
When they quietly went down the bridge cave, they saw their mother lying on the ground covered in blood, while Liu Mingkun seemed to have gone crazy.
Li Xiaoqing was a martial artist, so she was the first to rush forward and slap Liu Mingkun.
Li Xiaoran followed closely behind and swung her whip over.
Although she wasn’t a martial artist, she attacked angrily and used all her strength.
It wasn’t until Li Xiaoran had vented all her anger that Luo Cheng came over and grabbed Li Xiaoran’s hand.
“Xiaoran, Mom has superficial wounds. We have to send her back quickly to treat her wounds. If we delay things, she’ll suffer! Hand this person to me. I’ll definitely give you a satisfactory explanation!”
After Li Xiaoran panted a few times, she calmed down. Then, she nodded.
“Alright, let’s send Mother back quickly! Xiao Qing, stop hitting him. Saving Mother is more important!”
Li Xiaoqing also beat Liu Mingkun up with a bamboo pole.
When she heard her sister’s voice, she threw down the bamboo pole and went over to carry her mother, Zhao Xiu.
Soon, Liu Mingkun was captured.
Not only were his acupoints tapped, but he was also drugged and tied up with ropes.
Luo Cheng didn’t have time to thank Wang Mingjiang for his help tonight.
“Brother Wang, thank you for your help tonight. We’ll visit you another day to thank you! We have to go back today!”
Wang Mingjiang also knew that Li Xiaoran and the others must have a lot of things to do, so he nodded and brought his men home.
Zhao Xiu felt pain all over her body and her body temperature alternated between hot and cold.
In a daze, she thought she heard her eldest daughter and youngest daughter crying.
She wanted to force herself to perk up and comfort her two daughters, but she couldn’t open her eyes no matter what.
After that, she fainted and could no longer feel anything.
When Zhao Xiu opened her eyes again, she saw a familiar place.
Just as she was feeling a little groggy, memories of everything that had happened yesterday suddenly surfaced to mind.
Recalling her previous encounter, Zhao Xiu shivered.
“Mother, you’re awake?” At this moment, Li Xiaoqing’s surprised voice sounded.
Zhao Xiu turned around and saw Li Xiaoqing shouting out the door. “Sister, Brother-in-law, Brother Ziyang, my mother woke up!”
Soon, a group of people ran in. Li Xiaoran looked much more haggard.
Zhao Xiu said with some heartache, “Daughter, I’m fine!”
“Mother, you really frightened us yesterday!” Li Xiaoran said with red eyes when she saw how weak her mother was.
“That’s right! Mom, when my sister and I arrived yesterday, we were frightened to death when we saw you lying on the ground covered in blood!” Li Xiaoqing walked over and grabbed Zhao Xiu’s hand.
Zhao Xiu said with a smile, “I’m fine. I’ll be fine after recuperating for a few days! I was blind previously and misjudged Liu Mingkun. Don’t worry, Liu Mingkun asked me to write the marriage contract between Xiao Qing and him, but I didn’t!”
“Mother, thank you! ” When Li Xiaoqing heard this, her eyes turned red. Then, she squatted by the bed and snuggled her head against Zhao Xiu “But I hope you’re fine!”
Zhao Xiu looked at her daughter and said proudly, “Silly girl, don’t be sad. I’m very happy that I could finally protect you this time!”
“Then you have to get better quickly. We’re all waiting for you to protect us!” Li Xiaoqing said.
“Alright!” Zhao Xiu nodded.
After that, Li Xiaoqing and Li Xiaoran fed Zhao Xiu food and medicine before watching her fall asleep.
Luo Cheng felt a little sorry for Li Xiaoran, so he walked over and said, “You’ve been guarding her for the entire night. Hurry up and go back to rest! Ziyang and I are here, so you two should go and rest! Father hasn’t woken up yet. If he sees you two like this later, he’ll feel very upset!”
When Li Xiaoran and Li Xiaoqing looked at each other and saw each other’s haggard appearance, they nodded and went to rest.
After Li Xiaoran lay on the bed, she quickly fell asleep. Her mind had been racing for more than a day. Now, she finally had time to rest.
Therefore, she slept through the entire night.
Luo Cheng visited several times during the night. After confirming that Li Xiaoran was just too tired, he was no longer that worried.
At noon, Li Shun woke up.
He had been drugged by Liu Mingkun, so he had been unconscious until now.
Fortunately, Zhao Xiu woke up at this moment, so the couple sat together and chatted. Li Xiaoqing also woke up at noon. Her health was better than Li Xiaoran’s, so she woke up quickly.
After that, Li Xiaoqing guarded her parents while Luo Cheng guarded Li Xiaoran.
As for interrogating Liu Mingkun, it was left to Luo Ziyang.
Luo Ziyang drugged Liu Mingkun immediately!
Liu Mingkun, who had been drugged, became very obedient!
He would answer whatever Luo Ziyang asked.
He told Luo Ziyang everything he had done all these years.
However, there was something that gave him a headache whenever Luo Ziyang asked him.
According to Liu Mingkun, the reason he approached Li Xiaoqing was because his mentor had told him to.
Because time was tight and the mission was urgent, he rushed over.
As for how his mentor contacted him, Liu Mingkun didn’t know.
Every time his mentor wanted to look for him, he would put a letter by his bed.
This time, his mentor had instructed him to win Li Xiaoqing over and become Luo Cheng and the consort’s brother-in-law. Then, he would wait for the next mission.
Liu Mingkun thought that he would be able to complete this mission easily, but something unexpected happened.
In the end, he could only capture Li Shun and Zhao Xiu to force them to agree to his marriage with Li Xiaoqing.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he made a move, the matter was exposed. Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran brought people to capture him.
When Luo Cheng saw Liu Mingkun’s confession, he began to ponder over it.
Luo Cheng finally said, “Lock Liu Mingkun up.. We definitely can’t let him get rescued by anyone!”
