Choice Again
When Chen Wei’er heard He Xun’s words, her face turned even more unsightly. Because whether it was Miao Bing or Luo Xinrui, they both had an inseparable connection to her.
He Xun seemed to have read his wife’s thoughts. He patted her head.
“What are you thinking? You look so guilty.”
“I do feel guilty…” Chen Wei’er pouted.
“What do you have to feel guilty about?” He Xun raised his eyebrows.
“Whether it’s Miao Bing or Luo Xinrui, I feel like it is my fault…” Chen Wei’er was dejected.
“Silly girl, why are you overthinking it?” He Xun said helplessly. “You don’t have such great abilities.”
Seeing that she was about to blame herself again, He Xun directly interrupted her. “Stop!” He rarely interrupted Chen Wei’er’s speech. Almost no matter what she said, he would patiently listen on.
However, there was one thing that He Xun would always cut off. He didn’t allow Chen Wei’er to blame herself. His little princess should enjoy the present and not wallow in self-pity.
“This is not your fault. It’s the fault of whoever wants to hurt us. Don’t take all the blame on yourself. You didn’t do anything wrong. Do you understand?”
He Xun rarely spoke to her with such a strong attitude. Chen Wei’er was immediately charmed! She nodded her head. He Xun was right. She shouldn’t be remorseful for something like this.
“Hubby, I know. I won’t have such thoughts again!”
“It’s good that you know.” He Xun heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that she had eased up. He continued, “I’m guessing that these people are more likely to be sent by Miao Bing or the Luo family.”
“Why?” Chen Wei’er didn’t know how He Xun had deduced this.
He Xun explained, “Luo Xinrui’s grandparents have military power. They wouldn’t hire hooligans.”
Chen Wei’er tilted her head and said, “But if they asked someone from the army, wouldn’t that be against the rules? The military won’t agree to it!”
“But they can find a retired one. In short, they won’t be discovered. It’s obvious that these people have never received any formal training.” He Xun had been trained in the special forces, so he could tell the other party’s qualifications at a glance. And these people just happened to be the kind of people who didn’t have the qualifications. So he didn’t need to worry.
However, Chen Wei’er was a little afraid. “There are too many of them…”
“Your husband can fight ten people at a time.” He Xun even shook his neck. It looked as if he was in that situation.
Chen Wei’er saw his expression and laughed. At that moment, He Xun’s face was full of high spirits.
“You finally smiled.” He Xun also joined in the laughter. In such an environment, he knew that Chen Wei’er was nervous. Therefore, her emotions were crucial.
Chen Wei’er bit her lips. “I can’t remain calm at all times. I have to learn from you.”
He Xun heaved a long sigh. “Don’t be nervous. We’re doing pretty well now. Their car’s performance is substandard.” With that, He Xun stepped on the accelerator heavily. “Don’t be afraid. We’ve almost shaken them off!”
Chen Wei’er looked back and saw that the car behind them was getting smaller and smaller. She let out a sigh of relief. “We’ll definitely be able to escape!”
“Wei’er, are you afraid?” As soon as He Xun’s voice came out, Chen Wei’er’s eyes began to turn red, and her voice also carried a trace of anxiety.
“I…I’m very worried.” She feared that something would really happen and that she would never see her mother again.

At this moment, on the same mountain road…
The rumbling of a massive truck reverberated on the road!
In the vehicle, a man was still cursing, “Once I catch that woman, I’ll definitely beat her to death! Let her run!”
When Old Village Chief Li heard his words, he kicked him. “I want to kill you right now! If you men couldn’t even keep an eye on your own wives, how would we end up in this situation?”
The man was struck. He said aggrievedly, “Village Chief, why did you really kick me? I didn’t ask them to run away.”
“Do you really want them to escape and call the police? At that time, not only you but the entire village will be finished! What’s the use of saying all this nonsense now?” Old Village Chief Li was already annoyed, and he became even angrier when he heard these people talking nonsense.

He Xun and Chen Wei’er had arrived at the place where they had split up from the bodyguards. Now, there were two choices in front of them. One was the road leading to Osmanthus Village. The second was the direction where the bodyguards headed.
