The door of Lin Mansion was brightly lit. Lin Song and Lin Shun were standing by the door and looking towards the intersection from time to time.
Seeing someone approaching, he immediately ordered his servants to carry lanterns to greet them. Seeing the embarrassed looks of Lin Jinyan and others, Lin Song's expression changed drastically.
"What's going on, young master? Didn't you go out in a carriage? Why did you end up like this? Did you startle the horse? Are you injured?"
Lin Jinyan smiled and said: "Uncle Song, we just fell slightly and it's not serious. We met Mobei spies on the way. Fortunately, we were protected by two cousins and we were able to come back safely."
After hearing this, Lin Song thanked Gu Ruizhou repeatedly. After welcoming a few people into the mansion, he sent someone to find the doctor.
In Songmao Hall, Lin Jinyan didn't wait for Gu Ruizhou to speak, and said that she encountered Mobei spies who were killing people and setting fires in the city. They happened to meet Gu Ruizhou and started fighting. Fortunately, Gu Ruizhou, Gu Yichen, and Hong Jiu and Song Yi fought to protect each other on the way. Come back alive.
Gu Ruizhou looked at Lin Jinyan who was speaking. He couldn't bear to brush off her good intentions and agreed with her, but in his heart he became more and more aware of how good his cousin was.
She must have known that the killer was coming for her and An'er, and the reason why she said this was because she didn't want the Lin family to have any objections to him.
Lin Yanqing, Lin Siyuan, and the old lady were all frightened when they heard this. The old lady pulled the two brothers and sisters in front of her, looked them up and down carefully, and then hugged them in her arms to feel a little relieved.
The three of them thanked Gu Ruizhou repeatedly. Gu Ruizhou felt guilty and was about to explain when he saw Lin Jinyan looking at him firmly with a smile on his face.
This little girl can tell what she is thinking at a glance. She is so alert and insightful. It seems that everything she did in the past was done by herself and no one was instructing her.
After saying this, Gu Ruizhou said goodbye and returned home, and Lin Siyuan stood up to see him off.
Gu Ruizhou explained the whole story of the assassination to Lin Siyuan alone. Although Lin Siyuan was worried about his children, he also told Gu Ruizhou to be careful in everything.
After finishing speaking, he asked Lin Song to prepare horses and arranged several guards to see him off.
Looking at Gu Ruizhou's walking back, Lin Siyuan murmured:
"The children have all grown up, and Yan'er...has also grown up."
Since it was late, the doctor came into the house to consult Gu Momo and prescribe medicine, and then everyone rested and went to sleep.
When Lin Jinyan had just finished washing and was about to lie down, Liuli came over and sent a message:
"The old lady has already laid down. She is worried about the young lady and is worried that the young lady will not be able to sleep well due to being frightened. She ordered Man Nao and Hong Jiu to keep a vigil over the young lady tonight. The doctor will also stay in the house tonight. If she wakes up tomorrow morning and feels unwell, please call immediately. The doctor diagnosed and treated her, and the old lady told her not to hide it because she was afraid that the old man would worry about her."
Lin Jinyan agreed with a smile, feeling warm in her heart, and followed the old lady's instructions to leave Man Nao and Hong Jiu to keep watch.
While A Nao went to get the quilt, Lin Jinyan looked at Hong Jiu seriously.
"Thank you very much for today. If you hadn't protected our lives from danger, luckily you were fine. Next time if we encounter this danger again and you still can't save me even though you try your best, please save your own life first."
Hong Jiu looked at Lin Jinyan blankly: "Miss, you are saying... that you will leave me alone to protect your own life while abandoning you?"
"If you were only injured and could save your life and mine, I would not stop you. If you risk your life and still can't save me, then why bother with your life? An innocent death will only cause sorrow to your loved ones, not to mention You are just following me as a errand, why bother to die for me?"
