Lu Jinfeng's expression became serious: There are other coincidences, but the possibility of that is the highest.

How could there be so many coincidences in this world? Most coincidences were intentional.

Besides, this coincidence was too unusual.

"In any case, it's always right for us to be careful." "In a while, when you go back and inform them, don't get too tired from your sleep and get ambushed."

Lu Jinfeng answered, thinking of something, his eyes suddenly lit up, and looked at her with a smile that was not a smile: "Chen Mu Mu Mu, don't you have a strong Duke friend? With him here, are you afraid of something unexpected happening? "

They had all seen Qin Tianshui's abilities before. With just a few strikes, he had taken care of a large group of assassins.

In his eyes, trained killers were nothing to him, and those unknown and familiar ones downstairs were not a problem for him.

However, Qin Tianshui was Qin Tianshui, so he couldn't be confused with them.

No matter how powerful the prince's subordinates were, they would never be his men.

Qin Tianshui wouldn't be able to protect them for the rest of their lives, not to mention that with his cunning and treacherous personality, he might have even sent those people to deal with them.

Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu knew that Qin Tianshui was jealous of him, so he shook his head helplessly. "That's enough, don't bother saying such useless words. Whether Qin Tianshui is a friend or foe, we don't even know."

"You also know that he doesn't know if he's an enemy or a friend." Lu Jinfeng scoffed, "I thought you were already obsessed with him, that you couldn't even find the north, south, east and west anymore."

Chen Mu Mu snorted. Was she such a shallow person?

He was too lazy to bicker with Lu Jinfeng, and only said: "When we go back later, you should also bring up Qin Tianshui, that peeping Tom …"

Upon mentioning Qin Tiansei's terrifying habit of spying on others, Chen Mu Mu Mu creased his brows as a deep sense of helplessness surged forth from within his heart. "He might be spying on us again."

Although Qin Tianshui didn't have any hostility towards them right now, he had spies everywhere with no privacy at all. It was truly repulsive.

"I know." Although he did not know that Qin Tiansei had spied on Chen Mu Mu's bath, Lu Jinfeng still understood every single movement that the Shangguan Family had. After hesitating for a while, he suppressed the strange emotions in his heart, "You should be careful too."

After bidding farewell to Lu Jinfeng, Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu returned to her room. Chen Ergou was yawning at the door and when he saw her return, he couldn't help but greet her.

"Little sister, why did you come back so quickly?"

"I just wanted to buy some things anyway, so I didn't need that much time." Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu looked at the candlelight in the room and asked softly, "Mother, are you asleep inside?"

Otherwise, why was there no sound at all?

"He must be asleep." Chen Ergou said, "After Mother Qian washed up, she said that she was tired and chased me out. I think she has already fallen asleep."

Chen Ergou was a man after all, men did not stay in a woman's room for a long time. In order to avoid suspicion, he sat at the door and waited for Chen Mu Mu Mu and the others to return.

"It's been hard on you." Chen Mu Mu Mu pushed open the door as she whispered, "You should be tired after rushing back for an entire day. You should go back and rest."

"Alright." Chen Ergou stretched his body and stood up, "You should also rest early."

Just as he was about to return to his room, he suddenly heard Chen Mu Mu Mu cry out, "Mother?"

"What happened?" Chen Ergou immediately turned around and entered the room.

The middle class guest room was not very wide, so when he pushed open the door, he could easily see what was going on inside.

The candle flame burned silently on the table, providing visible light to the room. However, the large room was completely silent. Not even a single person could be seen.

"Where is he?" Chen Ergou was dumbstruck, "An incense's time ago, I was talking to Mother Qian, I was guarding the door the whole time, and I didn't see Mother Qian come out, where did she go now?"

"You're asking me, but who should I ask? Weren't you always guarding here?" Chen Mu Mu Mu glared at him in displeasure, and said with an agitated tone, "Quickly go inform Lu Jinfeng, find him and bring him back."

"I'll go now." Chen Ergou knew that he was in the wrong and did not dare to bicker with her.

Seeing the empty room, Chen Mu rubbed his forehead, a violent feeling rising in his heart.

Even though he was already so careful, something still happened right under his nose.

The Madam Li was fine before, but Chen Ergou was also at the door, how did he suddenly disappear for no reason?

As she was thinking, she saw that the window was half-closed and not quite closed. She walked over and just barely saw the footprints that had crawled through the window.

"So that's how it is."

It turned out that those people were coming in from the window and took Madam Li away from the window.

Chen Ergou was normally an extremely quick-witted person but he was guarding the door and it did not make sense for there to be some disturbance in the room that did not attract his attention. It seemed that the person was far more skilled than Chen Ergou.

As Chen Mu Mu Mu thought of this, a gust of wind blew in from the window, causing the candle flame in the room to shake. She quickly covered the candle holder, afraid that the candle flame would instantly extinguish. After walking over, he saw a folded piece of paper under the candlestick.

She opened the slip of paper and saw a line of words:

"If you want the Madam Li to be safe and sound, then come to find me alone after seeing this note. Remember, only you can go."

So, the Madam Li was kidnapped?

Were the kidnappers after her?

Chen Mu Mu frowned and was about to put the paper away when a hand suddenly stretched out from behind her and snatched the paper away.

"They kidnapped my mother?"

Lu Jinfeng finished reading the words on the slip of paper, his eyes cold and his expression cold, his entire body releasing a terrifying aura.

"Isn't that obvious?" Chen Mu glared at him as he rolled up his sleeves and walked out.

"Wait." Lu Jinfeng tugged on her sleeves, "Are you going to keep your promise?"

"It must be, or do you want to see something happen to your mother?" Chen Mu Mu asked.

Lu Jinfeng was speechless, after being silent for a while, he said: "I'll go, you stay, it's too dangerous."

If they let a weak girl like Chen Mu go, even if she went alone, it was possible that neither of them would be able to make it back.

"What's the use of you going? It might anger the kidnapper and cause something to happen to Mother. " Chen Mu Mu found it funny. "You saw what was written on the note. The person they wanted was me."

"This is a trap." Lu Jinfeng looked at her, and said, "I can't let you take the risk."

"Your mother is still there." So, could she not go?

"My mother's life is her life, and yours is also her life. I absolutely cannot let you compensate yourself for my mother's sake." Lu Jinfeng looked at her deeply, "Chen Mu Mu Mu, my mother raised me up, I owe her a favor, so everything I do for her is natural. But you are different, you do not owe my mother anything, you do not need to take this risk for my mother."

Chen Mu Mu was astonished as he looked at the man in front of him. Then, the corners of his mouth curled up as he asked, "Do you really think so?"

It was rare for a man to speak so rationally to a kidnapper when his mother was in trouble.

If it was anyone else, they would definitely capture her and throw her to the kidnapper without any hesitation, in exchange for the safety of Madam Li.

In the worst case scenario, she would have to save Madam Li no matter what. If she did not go, she would be criticized as an ungrateful and heartless bad woman who had been condemned by morality for her entire life, and kept away from others.

But she never thought that at this time, Lu Jinfeng would actually be able to say such rational words.

It was true that the person who owed the Madam Li a great favor was Lu Jinfeng, but it had nothing to do with Chen Mu Mu Mu.

However, Lu Jinfeng did not stand at the highest moral level to ask her to do anything.

"That's right." Lu Jinfeng said, "You can stay here and wait for my news, I will definitely bring Mother back safely."

What if he couldn't?

The corners of Chen Mu Mu's lips curled up, "It's enough for you to have such intentions. I'll accompany you."

She was someone who would not take advantage of others. The more she did moral kidnapping, the more she didn't want to do it. However, for the sake of others, she felt comfortable.

Of course she didn't have the determination to sacrifice herself to save others, but just based on Lu Jinfeng's words, she was willing to exchange her for a Madam Li.

"You?" Lu Jinfeng squinted his eyes, and sized her up from head to toe, as if ridiculing her, "If you can't take my shoulder, you can't even run away from me. What are you going to do, drag me down, and then die together with me?"

He clearly wanted her to live on, but he said it so harshly.

Chen Mu rolled his eyes, and slapped his forehead. "Enough, say that I'm dragging your back, who knows how many times, it's me who saved you. Tell me, what else can you do other than fight and jump? If there are a few people with higher cultivation than you, then you will have to rest. If I don't go, then are I supposed to retrieve your corpse? "

The corner of Lu Jinfeng's mouth twitched: "You wife, I'm going out to take a risk, but you're actually cursing me."

"To those who are capable, those words are like a passing wind. It's fine if they are blown away, but only those who are unskilled will fuss over it. However, no matter how much you fuss over it, luck is not a disaster, a disaster is still unavoidable." Chen Mu said.

"I don't have the ability. I'm afraid something bad might happen." Lu Jinfeng glared at her unhappily, "I've already said it so clearly. If you follow me, I won't care what danger you run into."

"Heh, when will you be able to shake the things that I've decided on?" Chen Mu Mu shrugged his shoulders before withdrawing his steps and walked towards the table where the medicinal herbs were placed. He paused for a moment before continuing, "Wait for me outside the door. I need to bring something to protect myself."

Lu Jinfeng's expression was somewhat moved, with a hint of indescribable complexity in his gaze: "You really want to go out with me?"

"You want me to be fine, so naturally, I don't want anything to happen to you either." "Lu Jinfeng, don't make your own decisions. I'm not as weak as you think. Moreover, if you go with me, the chances of us returning together is higher."

She looked at him with a smile on her lips. "Don't you agree?"
