Lu Li was choked by Qiao Liangjin's words. He smiled and muttered, "Isn't this all for your own good …" I was afraid you might be blinded. "

By now, Qiao Liangjin had already heard everything and heard Lu Li's words. She turned around and sneered, "Do you believe that I will tell your master about your words?"

Lu Li immediately shut up. He had been following Qiao Liangjin for the past few days, so he was well aware of her character and character.

When they arrived at the entrance of the chrysanthemum restaurant, An Ge happened to see off the last customer. Seeing three people, he walked up to them in surprise. "When did you leave? Why didn't I notice?"

Qiao Liangjin pointed to the window on the second floor and blinked. She helped Bai Wuyu into the house and turned to Lu Li, who was about to enter, and said, "Xin Ting shouldn't be here. Wait for us at the door for a while, I'll send Bai Wufei upstairs later."

Lu Li had no choice but to withdraw his leg that had just stepped into the hall and stand in the darkness.

Qiao Liangjin supported Bai Wu's pale face as they walked towards the stairs. An Ge then noticed that Bai Wu's expression was extremely ugly. He asked in surprise, "What's going on?"

Bai Wu waved his hand and forced a smile, saying softly, "No problem."

The door to the second floor opened with a "Hua La" sound. A red figure flashed and went downstairs. She pushed Qiao Liangjin aside and glared at him viciously.

The little fox, Yuesheng, who was obediently lying on Bai Wu's body, seemed to be irritated by Hong Chen's actions. With a fox fire on his little claw, he grabbed onto Hong Chen's neck. Hong Chen was caught off guard and was given a good scratch.

"Yu Sheng!"

"Red Dust!"

Qiao Liangjin and Bai Wuyi called for a person and a fox to stop simultaneously.

Red Dust raised his hand and gently caressed the deep wound on his neck. The claw with fox fire still had some power, but from Qiao Liangjin's perspective, that wound didn't seem to be bleeding at all.

Qiao Liangjin walked up a few steps and held the little fox in her arms. She took out a small bottle of ointment from her sleeve and threw it to Hong Chen. Hong Chen grabbed the bottle and asked with a cold smile, "What is this?"

"This is medicine ointment, you should apply it. It's still more or less useful. After all, people like you who rely on your appearance still value your appearance a lot." Qiao Liangjin was originally unhappy with the hostility in the mortal world. Unknowingly, her words also carried thorns in them.

Just as Hong Chen was about to retort, she was pulled back by Bai Wu Chen. "Hong Chen, help me back."

Qiao Liangjin watched Bai Wuchen and the rest disappear up the stairs before turning around with a sigh and said to An Ge, "If you want to see a doctor tomorrow, you can buy all the precious herbs you need. If you don't have enough silver taels, just tell me. You should get an early rest as well.

An Ge nodded and sent Qiao Liangjin out the door, then closed the shop.

Looking at the extinguished candles in the hall, Qiao Liangjin suddenly sighed. Looking at Lu Li who had been waiting for her, she waved her hand and said, "Let's go. We can't find Xin Ting over there. The Prime Minister's residence must be looking for her now."

Carrying Qiao Xinting on her back, Lu Li followed Qiao Lianjin to the Residence of Prime Minister.

Halfway there, Lu Li suddenly said, "Princess, I still think it's better not to tell that Miss Qiao was kidnapped."

"Why?"

"Shame on her reputation. In the future, she will be in a difficult position." Lu Li explained.

Qiao Liangjin was silent for a moment before she smiled, "That's true, you're right. How about this: I'll bring her back to my Flowing Gold Flower Pavilion later. You go to Peace Heart Garden and tell my Third Madame that she can be at ease. Xin Ting will be staying here tonight."

"Yes."

As she brought Qiao Xinting back to the Flowergolden Pavilion, the three maids who were dozing off frantically supported her onto the beauty bed. Ruo Lan looked at Qiao Xinting, whose face was covered with dried tears, and asked, "Third Madam had An Qing come over to check on the Fifth Miss just now."

Qiao Liangjin sat quietly at the side, holding an amethyst bracelet in her hand. Looking at the unconscious Qiao Xinting, a faint sense of displeasure rose in her heart.

After a while, Lu Li knocked on the door and said, "Princess, you have told the Third Madam that you will be here soon."

Qiao Liangjin acknowledged and fell silent.

After saying that, Lu Li quietly left.

Zi Yan brought a basin of water and washed the handkerchief. She gently wiped Qiao Xinting's face. Her originally innocent and cute face gradually became clean. However, there was a red and swollen palm print on the left side of her face.

When Zi Yan saw the palm print, she said in surprise, "Ah, who hit him? How could she be so ruthless?"

The corner of Qiao Liangjin's mouth twitched. "I broke his bones with my bare feet."

Zi Yan slowly prepared to untie Qiao Xinting's belt, but she didn't expect the little girl to suddenly open her eyes. She leaned against the wall in fright, covering her chest and shaking her head with all her might. "Don't, don't …"

Zi Yan was shocked by Qiao Xinting and wanted to go comfort her, but Qiao Xinting viciously grabbed her. There were a few wounds on the back of her hand.

Qiao Liangjin knew that Qiao Xinting was frightened. She stood up and walked over to the beauty bed and looked at Qiao Xinting who was shivering against the wall. She had never felt so gentle as she said, "Xinting, I'm big sister."

Qiao Xinting was slightly startled, but her eyes became unfocused again. She shook her head and covered her eyes. Her body was still trembling as she kept mumbling, "Let me go …" "Let me go …"

Qiao Liangjin looked at the originally smaller and skinnier body that was now curled up into a ball. She felt an inexplicable fire burning in her heart.

She tried her best to suppress her anger, but her voice was still gentle, "Xin Ting, look, I'm here. Big Sis will help you take revenge in a while. What kind of insult did you receive, big sis will come back a hundred times, a thousand times over."

Qiao Xinting, on the other hand, had her body curled up, so that Qiao Liangjin's words could not be heard.

Guo Caiting arrived at the Flower Luck Pavilion. The moment she entered the door, she saw Qiao Xinting curled up into a ball, leaning against the wall while trembling. Her legs gave way and she was supported by Ruo Lan beside her.

Guo Caiting's voice was a little shaky as she asked, "Ting Er … "Ting Er, she …"

Ruo Lan supported Guo Caiting over to the beauty bed and said, "Miss, you saved me in time." "It's nothing, I was probably scared."

Guo Caiting knelt on one knee beside the beauty bed, stretched out her arms, and gently said to Qiao Xinting, "Ting Er, it's mother …"

Sure enough, when Qiao Xinting heard Guo Caiting's voice, she paused for a moment. With tears in her eyes, she looked in Guo Caiting's direction.

Qiao Liangjin's nose turned sour as she turned her head away. This kind of scene was something she could not bear to see. She would think of her parents, think of her childhood, and think of too many things that had happened before.

Guo Caiting lightly reached out her arm and easily pulled Qiao Xinting into her embrace. She slowly patted Qiao Xinting's back and comforted her, "Be good and don't be afraid. Everything's over. Everything's fine now."

Qiao Xinting had indeed calmed down a lot, but the crying was getting louder and louder.

Qiao Liangjin silently thought to herself, "Cry, cry. It's good that you cried out. Growing up in this kind of family, you have to learn how to be strong and protect yourself."

After who knows how long had passed, Qiao Xinting finally cried herself to death and fell into a deep sleep in Guo Caiting's arms.

With the help of Ruo Lan and Zi Yan, Guo Caiting placed Qiao Xinting on the beauty bed. After covering her with a blanket, she sat down at the table.

Ruo Lan had already brought the supper and placed it in front of the two of them. She said in a soft voice, "You've been tormenting yourself for half the night. Have some supper."

Guo Caiting shook her head, pushed her bowl to the side and sighed. She turned her head to look at Qiao Xinting on the bed and said, "Eldest Miss … Xin Ting has given you trouble again. "

Qiao Liangjin smiled as if nothing had happened and said, "How can there be so much trouble? It's actually you, Aunt, who has been through so much to come back and see your daughter get hurt. You …" Do you regret it? "

Guo Caiting turned back to look at her daughter with a faint smile, "To be injured one after the other, it can only be said that Ting Er is too inexperienced. No matter how well I protect her, if she marries, she will die at her maiden home sooner or later."

Qiao Liangjin froze for a moment. She didn't expect Guo Caiting to say something like that, and it could be said that she had put in a lot of effort. However, she still didn't understand and asked, "If I didn't go out today, and met Xin Ting … What should you do? "

Guo Caiting's hand, which was placed on the table, suddenly shrunk. She was silent for a few minutes and then suddenly let out a bitter laugh, "Then we'll think of a way to find her and kill her."

Qiao Liangjin was stunned. She opened her mouth, but did not know what to say.

Yes, this was ancient times. This was a feudal society where a woman was sold to a brothel. It was the shame of a family. Especially the shame of the Prime Minister's residence.

Qiao Liangjin lightly patted the back of Guo Caiting's hand and consoled her, "Everything is if, don't worry. If you keep on saying two or three times, then Xin Ting will definitely learn how to survive safely in the Prime Minister's Estate. With me here, nothing will happen to Xin Ting, but... I have something that I need Third Madame's help with. "

After saying all of this, Guo Caiting seemed a little exhausted. She lifted her head with difficulty and asked, "What is it?"

By the time Qiao Liangjin and Guo Caiting had finished discussing their matters, the sky was already starting to brighten. Qiao Liangjin stood up, stretched a little and said, "Third Aunt can go back and rest, I'm here."

Guo Caiting looked at Qiao Xinting, who was sitting on the beautiful bed, with some worry, before leaving.

Qiao Liangjin looked at Qiao Xinting's slightly trembling eyelashes and knew that she must be dreaming. The things in the dream must not be so pleasant.

She silently sat beside Qiao Xinting and placed a hand on her arm. Then, she patted it gently. Indeed, Qiao Liangjin's pat caused Qiao Xinting's eyelashes to stop moving.

Qiao Liangjin sighed and took off her outer clothes. She then lay down beside Qiao Xinting. This was the second time that she shared a bed with someone else. The last time was in Sheng Cheng City with Ling Yu.

She knew how difficult it was for Qiao Xinting to endure that night. She had also experienced such a terrifying night before, but the hug she needed back then had never appeared. She felt indescribably sad. After that night, she had become so tough and strong.
