There Are Things Out of Your Control

She has heard of the Qian family's name.

The second richest in Nanling, second only to the richest Liu family in the capital in terms of luxury and wealth.

Qian Baihao, the current head of the Qian family, and the Qian family's businesses were all over the country. The reason why Qian Wanjin would personally oversee a wine shop in Xiangshan County was probably because his mother, Lady Qian was from the Wan family in Xiangshan.

With the inextricable relationship between a wine shop and the Qian family in the capital, Wanrong didn't even know if this was luck or not.

The Qian family wasn't like an ordinary family. If they got curious about her, it wouldn't be hard to find out her details. By then…

"Qian Baihao is smart and cautious. He's very good at keeping his head above water. He won't get himself into trouble, so Mother doesn't need to worry too much." Axiu faintly replied.

"I hope so." As things stood, unless they escaped again, they could only take chances.

Looking at the small figure walking in front of her, Wanrong sighed inwardly. If they were to leave this place, she was afraid that Xiu'er wouldn't be willing to do so.

He really liked Nannan.

Arriving at the door of the hut, Wanrong was just about to reach out and push the door open, when Axiu pulled her back.

"Xiu'er?"

Axiu dragged her back hard, and under the dark of the night, his eyes penetrating into the courtyard were grave and cold. "Mother, run!"

"Xiu'er…" Wanrong's face instantly turned ashen. She vaguely realized what was happening, and her retreating steps turned weak.

"Run!" Axiu shouted, while reaching out and pushing her out hard. "Leave me alone, they wouldn't dare hurt me!"

Unable to care about anything else any longer, Wanrong gritted her teeth and turned to run out. She couldn't stay. If she did, she'd become Xiu'er's weakness instead!

Under the moonlight, four shadows leaped out of the hut and surrounded Axiu, ignoring the fleeing woman.

"16th prince, enough of this nonsense. It's time to go back with us." One of the present chuckled lightly, his tone completely devoid of respect.

"Dream on!"

"The Prince mustn't put us in a difficult position. Otherwise, if we hurt your little arms and legs, we won't be able to answer to our master." The man gestured as he spoke, signaling those around him to go after the woman.

Axiu's eyes turned glacial. He shot without warning, stopping his opponent in his tracks. Regardless of his reckless stance, or this desperate fight, the stunned four experts were firmly trapped in the square footage.

They were scrupulous and didn't dare lay a heavy hand on him. This was his only leverage.

He had to stall for time so that his mother could escape further.

More and more tiny and not-too-fatal wounds on his body increased. Blood oozed out and stained his coarse clothes, and his strength was draining away extremely fast in the fight.

Until he could no longer hold on, Axiu jumped out of the fighting ring with a backward flip and locked one hand around his throat. "Get out of here, all of you, or I'll die here!"
