I want to be innocent, but they don't allow me

Chapter 676 Zhang Hanrui’s bold guess.

Now, the longer she delays, the greater the chance of someone coming to rescue her.

If her young lady was kidnapped, she would never give up.

While she was thinking, an arrow had already torn her clothes.

However, before she could react, two more arrows pierced her left thigh and lower abdomen.

Yuanbao's speed did not slow down. She knew that with the opponent's speed, if he succeeded, she would not be able to catch up.

Unfortunately, she was still a step too late, and the other party had obviously anticipated everything.

Just when Yuanbao was about to get close, three men in black followed suit, picked up short sticks and knocked Yuanbao away.

With a "puff" sound, Yuanbao spat out a large mouthful of blood. Just as she was about to move forward again, arrows like raindrops were flying towards her.

"Sorry, sir. It's all my fault that the ingots are useless."

Yuanbao gritted his teeth and tears rolled down from the corners of his eyes.

She was unwilling to give in. Some of these men in black were not even at the third level in terms of aura, but they were not inferior to her in speed or strength.

She was confident that she could handle three or five people at the same time, but when it came to dozens of them, and she had to be distracted by Liu Mingyan, she really was powerless.

The rain of arrows was approaching, and even though she had used all her strength to stop them, she knew that it would most likely be in vain.

In the end, he could not escape the fate of being pierced by an arrow.

Thinking about the many regrets she still had, the business had not yet grown and she had not changed her surname back to Qian.

She hadn't felt the young master's tenderness since the last time, and she really wanted to be hugged by him again.

"Sir, Yuanbao doesn't want to die, save Yuanbao."

Yuanbao's voice was full of unwillingness, but as soon as he finished speaking.

She felt herself falling into a familiar embrace.

Time seemed to stop at this moment, and the arrow in front of him was suspended in the air.

"Am I dead?" Yuanbao murmured, her big eyes fanning, tears hanging on her long eyelashes.

"you guess."

At this moment, a familiar voice came to my ears.

The man's hot breath touched her earlobe, making her feel a little itchy.

Yuan Bao turned around in astonishment and found that she was in the arms of the man he had been thinking about day and night. Tears welled up in his eyes.

"Sir, how come you died too? Aren't you very powerful?"

The corner of Li Mu's mouth twitched, and the pretentious words he had prepared to say were held back.

His eyes swept over the arrows in Yuanbao's lower abdomen and thighs, and anger surged to his forehead.

On the side, Zhang Hanrui looked at the strange scene in front of him with excitement in his eyes.

All the men in black in the field seemed to be under a spell of immobilization, unable to move.

Xu Youzhi huddled in the corner of the pavilion with her head in her hands, next to her were two men in black who had just extended their hands halfway.

Noticing something unusual, he raised his head cautiously and met Zhang Hanrui's teasing eyes.

"Our Youzhi is really popular. These people are more than enough to assassinate masters of the Heaven Realm."

"elder sister……"

"It's okay. Take the girl from the Liu family and hide aside first."

Zhang Hanrui waved her hand, appeared beside Li Mu, frowned and asked,

"you……"

"Sister Ning'er, please help Yuanbao heal his injuries!"

Li Mu's tone was unusually calm, even a little abnormally calm.

"If Zhao Chuxi dares to do this, it will be very dangerous for you to go to the palace!" Zhang Hanrui hurriedly reminded.

Obviously, she had also analyzed the identity of the culprit early on.

Li Mu shook his head and said calmly, "Don't worry, I won't do anything stupid."

Li Mu had made a mistake once and he would definitely not make the same mistake a second time.

Li Mu couldn't understand how he could have done such a stupid thing as allowing a hungry wolf to stare at him.

However, Li Mu would never kill Zhao Chuxi himself.

And right now, there is a good scapegoat.

While thinking, Li Mu handed the ingot to Zhang Hanrui, and his figure flashed and appeared in the center of the pavilion.

"Are you okay?"

"No, it's okay, sir, Yuanbao she..." Liu Mingyan saw Li Mu and hurried forward.

Li Mu raised his hand to wipe away the tears from her eyes and comforted her.

"Don't worry, with Sister Ning'er here, everything will be fine in two days."

Liu Mingyan burst into laughter and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Sister Pei Ning is an expert in medicine. That, that..."

"Go ahead. Yuanbao might get better faster if you take care of him."

Hearing this, Liu Mingyan was about to raise her leg, then seemed to have thought of something, stood on tiptoe and pecked the corner of Li Mu's lips lightly, then hurriedly ran out of the pavilion.

"Sir, you saved Mingyan again."

Li Mu smiled bitterly and licked the corner of his mouth with the tip of his tongue. He was not disgusted by his daughter's little tricks.

In fact, he and Liu Mingyan had no real feelings for each other. They just got what they wanted and it was mutually beneficial.

What he was attracted by was Liu Mingyan's ability to make a fortune every day, and of course her stunning beauty.

Liu Mingyan initially had her eyes on the power of Prince Yan's Mansion, but as she got to know Li Mu better, she realized that the one who could truly protect him was not Prince Yan's Mansion, but Li Mu himself.

Apart from the initial panic, Xu Youzhi has now recovered as if nothing had happened.

Li Mu even noticed that although she was panicked just now, she was still holding the dagger hidden in her sleeve at all times, and it was unclear whether she was planning to stab the black-clad assassin or commit suicide.

Li Mu sighed slightly and said with some emotion,

"Still so strong."

After these words were spoken, both of them were stunned at the same time.

Li Mu said this when he recalled the dream in which he had designed various ways to help Xu Youzhi, but she did not appreciate it.

But what Xu Youzhi thought of was the so-called substitute.

Xu Youzhi took a deep breath, looked at Li Mu with her beautiful eyes, opened her mouth slightly, and uttered two words, "Substitute?"

Li Mu understood what Xu Youzhi meant. For some reason, he no longer wanted to lie to this girl. Perhaps he felt that her life was pitiful, or perhaps he developed feelings for her in that dream.

Or maybe he just thought the girl was pretty. Anyway, Li Mu no longer needed this little spy, so he shook his head decisively.

"No."

Xu Youzhi frowned slightly. She thought Li Mu would admit it, and she had already made a plan to verify the authenticity, but Li Mu's answer caught her off guard.

"But how do you know things that only you and I know!"

Xu Youzhi blurted out, looking a little excited.

Li Mu shook his head and said after a slight hesitation, "Perhaps you won't believe this, but I heard all those questions of yours for the first time, and the answers...are actually just random words."

"If you really want to get to the bottom of it, it should be a coincidence."

Li Mu didn't expect that Xu Youzhi was testing her at the time. He used the same tricks he used to fool ignorant girls. He never thought that he got it all right.

Seeing Xu Youzhi's hesitant look, Li Mu felt an inexplicable pain in his heart. He casually threw a bamboo slip in front of Xu Youzhi, turned his head and said,

"Whether you believe it or not, I was wrong to lie to you before. Consider this as compensation."

Having said that, Li Mu didn't want to stay any longer, so he controlled the group of men in black like a puppet and walked towards the front hall.

"Youzhi..." Zhang Hanrui walked slowly to Xu Youzhi's side and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Xu Youzhi.

"This must be a plan that my sister came up with."

Zhang Hanrui didn't say anything, which was considered as her agreement.

Xu Youzhi was obviously not surprised, but asked curiously, "But how did sister know those things? I am sure she has never mentioned it to anyone else. Did he tell you?"

"He may not know!" Hearing Xu Youzhi say this, Zhang Hanrui's previous strange thought popped up again. After thinking about it, he asked tentatively,

"Youzhi, do you think that he is the second son of the Prince of Yan's Mansion that you knew in your childhood?"
