"Who brought them in?" Sure enough, just as she was about to pull Clove in, she was stopped by someone at the door.

The Crane Family was always like this, always inquiring about the unknown. Sometimes, she was also very tired of this kind of situation, but in the end, she still chose to live here.

"She's a good friend of mine. Even my people have to be questioned? " Ling An's reply had a trace of impatience in it. This was the only way for the guard to not be suspicious.

The guard took a few steps back. After some thought, he said, "Miss, you know our rules. Please don't make things difficult for us, okay?"

"You want to know? Come, let me tell you!" Ling An's tone could no longer be described as impatient. It was anger.

After recounting the words and words he had already discussed with the guard, Clove coordinated with him and answered his questions. Finally, after a bit of deliberation, the guard decided to let him pass.

Ling An felt relieved. Her acting wasn't bad, and with her identity, the guards would only let her go so quickly.

She walked faster and faster, and now she had to take the cloves into her own yard in case there were any more problems.

"Be careful!" Clove pulled the water chestnut behind her, dodging the man who was coming toward her.

The one walking towards them was precisely the Crane Forest. Ling An came back so late, and he brought a stranger with him. He didn't even say what he thought, but he was still so absent-minded. What did she do?

No matter how stormy his heart was, he still pretended to be oblivious. "Why are you back so late?" Is this your friend? "

Ling An froze for a moment and subconsciously replied, "Yes, this is my friend."

Then, she realized that she didn't need to report what she was doing, so she changed her tone, "It's getting late, I'll go back first. Clove and I still have a lot to say."

"I remember that you never brought back anyone, Aunty." One sentence caused Ling An's heart to turn cold. Could it be that he found out?

"I think there must be a lot of things to say, so I won't disturb you anymore."

Phew... It turned out that they had only heard half of the story, but in reality, the Crane Forest had not discovered their intentions at all.

Clove followed her back to the yard.

The first step of the plan was a success!

Ling An smiled at Clove and stared at her expressionlessly. It was obvious how ridiculous her actions were. She then closed the door in embarrassment.

Time passed by quickly, even though the two of them were just sitting in the room, looking at each other without moving. One was curious about the identity of the other woman, and the other was that she was no longer disturbed by the outside world.

They stared at each other as time passed.

Actually, it was already evening when they returned. The so-called time passed very quickly, but it had only been two hours.

"The sky is already dark, I will habitually leave a light on when I sleep. We can do it right now. All the lights in the room are turned off, leaving only the one at the head of the bed, making it easier for you to move around." Ling An said gently.

Lilac's execution ability was very strong. It didn't take long for all the lights in the room to be turned off, leaving only the light that Ling An had asked for.

"I'll leave first. Take care." Before Ling An could tell him what to do, Lilac's voice came from outside the door. Then, he looked in front of him. Where was Lilac?

"There are important people locked up here. Stop sleeping, get up quickly!" Clove had already arrived next to the secret dungeon without a sound. The guards' voices could be heard very clearly.

It seemed that Ling An hadn't found the wrong place.

Ling An had actually already marked the sizes on the map. On the way here, she had studied the entire map thoroughly and successfully avoided all the patrolling people.

"Who cares? We've been on guard duty for so many days, and there's nothing wrong with that. No one will notice us even if we sleep for a while." One of the guards yawned as he said this, feeling sleepy.

The head guard also could not bear to watch them. They had been here for several days, which meant that they had not had a good night's sleep. It was unlikely for anything big to happen.

While they were talking, Clove had already snuck into the dungeon.

The dungeon was very big, and Clove was also very surprised that there was actually such a place in the Crane Family. It seemed like the Crane Family had hidden itself very deeply.

The internal structure was very simple. Perhaps it was because of their innate confidence in themselves. Some of the mechanisms were unraveled effortlessly.

To her, this level of mechanism was child's play.

A woman with messy hair and tattered clothes was leaning against a wall in a daze.

Seeing the arrival of Lilac, it was as though he had seen hope. He quickly stood up, his eyes brimming with hope.

"Do you know Dong Xiaoxiao?" The woman in the cell clearly moved after hearing Dong Xiaoxiao's words.

From this, he could tell that she was Dong Xiaoxiao's mother and the target of her rescue today.

He used the small, specially made item to effortlessly open the cell door and pull Mother Dong out. Ignoring her opposition, he carried her on his back.

Once again, he quietly dived out.

The Crane Forest who was about to go to bed suddenly felt uneasy. He had a feeling that something big was going to happen.

He quickly put on his clothes. Whether or not something really happened, he had to go and see.

This look didn't matter. Just as he was about to arrive, he bumped into Clove. After seeing his opponent, he let out a cry of astonishment. "Aren't you the one Aunt brought here?"

When he took a closer look, he realized that there was an 'important person' he was holding behind this woman's back. He immediately understood.

Clove arranged Mother Dong to one side and engaged in a battle with the Crane Forest. She didn't expect to be on par with him. At this time, it wasn't an easy time to be on par with him!

Following the exchange of blows, the fear in the Crane Forest's heart grew. Just who was this woman in front of him? He could actually fight him to a standstill!

She gently put her fingers behind her back and took out a signal that was exclusive to her family. She planned to gather more people. Today, even if all of them were to stake their lives, they would catch this woman!

Clove felt something was wrong, so she stopped bothering him. Leaving behind a smoke bomb, she carried Mother Dong around before settling Dong Mu in Ling An's courtyard.

Ling An was waiting anxiously in the room. He didn't know if he had been saved or not.

Hearing a sound outside, Ling An quickly opened the door and only saw Mother Dong and Clove running away. It seemed they had met with trouble.
