Behind, Ruan Kai looked at his sister with a speechless expression on his face.

His sister had extraordinary talent, her martial arts talent was several times higher than an average person. Even though he was a male, his martial arts skills were not as high as his sister’s.

He had always worried that if his sister fell into the hands of bad people, she would become a tool for killing. Fortunately, the master they were currently following was relatively upright, so his sister would not go down the wrong path. If they had a different master who saw how skilled his sister was, she might have been forced to become a tool for killing.

Ruan Kai thought as he followed Ruan Zhu.

Ruan Zhu happily boasted to Lu Jiao, “Madam, I captured two live captives.”

The sixteen-year-old girl smiled innocently and cutely. There was no trace of evil in her, but Lu Jiao had witnessed her skills before and knew that she was extremely formidable. Having her around would make things much easier in the future.

Lu Jiao nodded with a smile and praised, “Well done, Ruan Zhu. I will reward you later. But for now, we need to leave this place quickly.”

They had just killed over ten people, and it wouldn’t be long before others arrived.

As soon as Lu Jiao finished speaking, Li Nantian exclaimed by the side of the carriage, “They took their own lives.”

Lu Jiao quickly looked outside the carriage and saw that the two black-clad individuals Ruan Zhu was holding had actually taken poison and ended their lives. The poison was likely hidden in their mouths.

Ruan Zhu, holding two dead bodies, looked at Lu Jiao with a bewildered expression and said, “Madam, I didn’t kill them.”

Lu Jiao nodded and said, “It’s not your fault.”

Now what should they do? The people were already dead. Was it necessary to bring the two dead bodies back?

Lu Jiao quickly instructed her subordinates outside, “Don’t bother with them, let’s go.”

“Alright.”

Several figures swiftly boarded the carriages, and the three carriages quickly sped away. Faint screams could be heard from behind.

Lu Jiao and the others ignored them and headed straight for the Xie residence. However, an unexpected incident occurred in the Xie residence.

In the late afternoon, each family sent people to pick up their children and return to their respective homes.

Today, the Han family arrived earliest. Classmate Han’s upcoming examination was only a few days away, so the household had arranged for a steward and several guards to accompany Han Dongsheng and Han Nanfeng.

However, just as the two youngsters were being escorted out of the Xie residence, and before they could even get on the carriage, two figures shot out from the shadows and snatched Han Nanfeng away. Before they disappeared, they left behind a threatening message.

“If you want your young master to be safe, immediately enter the Xie residence and lure out one of the Xie family’s children. Otherwise, don’t blame us for killing him.”

After speaking, the two individuals disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Han Dongsheng watched as his younger brother was taken away and couldn’t help but shout anxiously, “Little brother, little brother!”

Several guards had extremely grim expressions and turned to chase after them.

The Han family steward responsible for escorting the two children was named

Xia. With a cold face, Steward Xia stopped them and ordered in a deep voice, “Don’t chase, be quiet.”

The Han family guards stopped their actions and looked at Steward Xia in unison. Steward Xia paid no attention to them, turned his head, and looked at the crying Han Dongsheng, saying, “Young Master, don’t cry. We should think of a way to save the young master.”

“How do we save him?”

Han Dongsheng stopped crying and looked at Steward Xia beside him.

Steward Xia quickly spoke, “Didn’t the person who just left say it? If we lure out one of the Xie family’s young masters, our young master will be safe.”

Upon hearing Steward Xia’s words, Han Dongsheng instinctively refused, “No, if the First Born and the others come out, they will definitely suffer.”

Steward Xia’s face turned gloomy as he glared at Han Dongsheng, “This is originally the Xie family’s matter. On the contrary, it is our young master who is being implicated. If you don’t lure them out, those people won’t spare your little brother. Do you want to see your little brother die?”

When these words were said, Han Dongsheng’s expression changed. Steward Xia quickly continued, “Let’s go inside, or else our young master might be in trouble.’

Han Dongsheng was torn between the two choices but eventually gritted his teeth and turned to rush into the Xie residence.

Steward Xia’s gaze flickered as he followed closely behind.

Han Dongsheng rushed into the Xie residence. In the courtyard, the children were playing on a slide. The Second Born was playing while taunting Zhao Yuluo, saying, “Look at how fast and stable I am. Unlike you, you keep falling off. ”

Zhao Yuluo said angrily, “I’m having a good time right now.”

The Second, Third, and Fourth Born were playing on the slide, while the First Born stood below, looking up at his younger brothers enjoying themselves.

The First Born didn’t have much interest in playing on the slide. As the older brother, he was happy to see his younger brothers having fun.

Hu Lingxue accompanied the First Born and talked to him. Hu Lingxue also didn’t enjoy playing on the slide, so she stayed with the First Born and chatted.

When Han Dongsheng ran over from behind, the First Born turned his head and saw him. He looked surprised and asked, “Didn’t you leave? Why are you back again?”

After saying that, the First Born glanced behind Han Dongsheng and asked, “Where’s your brother?”

Han Dongsheng’s eyes immediately turned red. He glanced at the First Born and quickly grabbed his hand, saying, “I need to talk to Uncle Xie. Will you accompany me?”

“What are you going to tell my dad?” The First Born asked curiously, but he didn’t refuse. He held Han Dongsheng’s hand and ran quickly toward his father’s room.

Xia, the steward of the Han family, had a sudden change in his expression. He took a few quick steps, wanting to catch up with Han Dongsheng and stop him from going to find Xie Yunjin.

He had thought that with Han Dongsheng’s love for his brother, he would definitely deceive one of the four little ones to go out. But unexpectedly, Han Dongsheng didn’t fool any of the four little ones and instead went to find Xie Yunjin.

If Xie Yunjin knew about this, he would definitely investigate Steward Xia, and who knows what he might uncover.

Xia dared not think further and turned to look at the Second Born, who had just slid down the slide, and a flicker of coldness appeared in his eyes.

At this moment, Han Dongsheng and the First Born had already rushed into the master bedroom in the front courtyard. Xie Yunjin was leaning against the bed, closing his eyes to rest.

At this moment, he was somewhat worried about Lu Jiao. He didn’t know if anything unexpected had happened to her, so his mind was in turmoil.

When he heard the footsteps outside the door, Xie Yunjin thought it was Lu Jiao returning and subconsciously turned his head to look.

When he saw Han Dongsheng and the First Born come in, there was a flicker of disappointment in Xie Yunjin’s eyes. But he quickly composed himself and looked at the two little ones, asking, “What’s the matter with you two?”

Han Dongsheng saw Xie Yunjin and couldn’t help bursting into tears. He cried out, “Uncle Xie, please save my younger brother. He’s been kidnapped.”

Xie Yunjin was greatly shocked and sat up straight quickly, asking, “When did this happen?”

The two brothers from the Han family had been fine in their house earlier. How could Han Nanfeng be kidnapped in the blink of an eye? Moreover, what did the kidnappers want with Han Nanfeng?

“Slow down and tell me exactly what happened.”

Xie Yunjin’s expression became extremely serious. Han Dongsheng took a deep breath and quickly said, “When my younger brother and I were about to get on the carriage, two people rushed out, took my younger brother, and left. Before they left, they said if I could deceive one of the quadruplets to go out, they would release my younger brother.”

Actually, he had planned to deceive one of them, but then he thought about the mistake he had made before and how his father had been so heartbroken. If he deceived the quadruplets again, his father would be even more devastated.

He remembered his father telling him that Xie Yunjin and he were like brothers, just like him and his younger brother. So he didn’t want to make his dad sad, especially since the quadruplets had been good to them recently. He didn’t want to deceive them.

As soon as Han Dongsheng spoke, Xie Yunjin knew that the people behind the scenes wanted to use Han Dongsheng to deceive the quadruplets and take them away. However, they didn’t expect Han Dongsheng to ruin their plan.

Xie Yunjin reached out and patted Han Dongsheng’s hand, praising him, “You did well. Don’t worry, Uncle will find a way to save your younger brother.”

After saying that, Xie Yunjin got up from the bed quickly, preparing to go out. However, a commotion suddenly came from the courtyard outside, creating a chaotic noise..
