They couldn’t sense it, but Su Qian could tell at a glance that these guards were no ordinary people. Although they were dressed in unremarkable clothes, they were all top experts.

Su Qingqing’s cute little face appeared in her mind, and Su Qian’s heart tightened. She pulled Su Ye and barged into the inn.

Fortunately, the guards did not stop them. They finally arrived at the room Su Qingqing was in without any obstacles. Before they entered the room, they saw two figures through the window.

Su Qian’s heart was in her throat. Without thinking, she pushed open the door and was greeted with an unbelievable scene.

In the room, an adult and a child were sitting at the table. Su Qingqing was playing with the ragdoll in her hand obediently, while Xiao Yan was holding another doll in his hand and playing with her patiently.

At first glance, the atmosphere between the two of them was very harmonious. Su Qingqing was not shy with strangers at all, and Xiao Yan was more like a loving father who played with Su Qingqing…

Wait a minute!

Su Qian was shocked by her own thoughts and quickly threw that ridiculous thought out of her head.

Su Ye also saw Xiao Yan. Because of the mask, he couldn’t see Xiao Yan’s face clearly, but he subconsciously felt that this was a very handsome man. On top of that, he was very dangerous.

Even though the smile on Xiao Yan’s lips did not disappear from the beginning to the end, Su Ye’s sixth sense still warned him not to provoke this man easily!

Xiao Yan also noticed his gaze and quietly shifted his gaze away from Su Qian to him.

Their eyes met, and Su Ye saw that the man’s cold eyes were emotionless, and he became even more alert.

Although it was their first meeting, he did not like this man.

Just as Xiao Yan’s lips curled into a warm smile and was about to greet Su Qian, Su Qingqing, who had a well-behaved look on her face, suddenly jumped down from her seat, strode over to Su Qian with her thick little legs, and hugged her thigh.

“Mother, why did you only come back now?” Her voice was soft and sweet. Su Qingqing pouted her red lips. Her big eyes were filled with pity as if she had suffered a great grievance. She continued to complain, “Mother, after you left, a strange uncle suddenly came. He broke into my room and wanted to abduct me. I was really scared.”

As Su Qingqing spoke, she pointed her chubby finger at Xiao Yan as if he was a bad guy.

This little girl changed her attitude faster than turning the pages of a book. Just now, she clearly… Xiao Yan’s dark eyes suddenly darkened. He realized that Su Qingqing was just pretending to be obedient! He subconsciously looked towards Su Qian with an unclear meaning.

Su Qingqing was just pretending. It couldn’t be helped that she felt that he was not to be trifled with the moment she saw this strange uncle. She felt that she could not handle him.

However, it didn’t matter if she couldn’t handle it. She still had her mother’s support. She would definitely be able to beat this strange uncle who tried to kidnap and sell children!

Su Qian’s aura suddenly dropped to a freezing point. She raised her head, and the misty figure was reflected in her enchanting phoenix eyes.

The latter was sitting in his original position, calm and unruffled, quietly looking at her with an innocent look.

Su Ye quickly shielded his sister and looked at Xiao Yan warily. “Mother, do you know him?”

Su Qian was stumped by her son’s question.

Of course, she knew him, but she really didn’t want to have anything to do with this dangerous man.

Although the Ninth Prince was rumored to be a paralyzed good-for-nothing in Fire Cloud, her sixth sense, which had been trained from walking on the edge of life and death all year round, told her that this man was not as simple as he appeared to be.

On the contrary, he was very dangerous.

Moreover, there was a circle of guards downstairs.

“Your Highness, may I have a word with you?” She raised her head and looked at Xiao Yan.
