After rebirth, the Prime Minister's wife married the living devil

Du Ruo's eyes lit up. She knew this man was different from the other men, so she shouted at the top of her voice, "Master Li! Master Li! Come and save us! Someone is bullying a good girl named Lin in there!"

Before he finished speaking, Li Yanqi flashed to the door like lightning, heard the noise coming from inside the house, and kicked the door open.

Lin Yanyu's hair was disheveled, her cheeks were swollen, there were bloodstains on the corners of her mouth, and her face was covered with tear marks, but her clothes were still intact.

Du Ruo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the situation inside the door.

The big man was stunned for a moment when he saw the door being kicked open. Then he saw the murderous intent in Li Yanqi's eyes and knew that he was not a good person. He immediately stood up and pretended to be an ordinary customer and said, "Isn't this Mama Chen's new girl? How can she be so fierce?"

At this moment, Li Yanqi kicked the big man in the sternum. The big man fell lightly into the hall of Chunfengyuan like an autumn leaf, coughed a few times, and vomited blood on the spot.

Lin Yanyu and Du Ruo were already frightened and stunned. Li Yanqi's attack was swift, with a sinister expression on his face. When the big man flew out, Lin Yanyu clearly heard the sound of his sternum breaking.

When he saw Li Yanqi holding the dagger on his waist and about to go out, he immediately spoke out to stop him: "Li Yanqi!"

Li Yanqi turned his head to look at Lin Yanyu, and said, "Lin Yanyu, I'm really, really angry now. I want to kill him. Please don't stop me, okay?"

Hot tears rolled down Lin Yanyu's face. She trembled with fear and choked up, "Li Yanqi, I'm scared, but I want to understand this matter more..."

Tears dripped onto her collar one after another, "I don't want to be a ghost who died in vain in the future, Li Yanqi."

If the big man wanted to defame her innocence, he could have just found a deserted place. Why did he have to leave her in the room of Chunfeng Garden and wait for her all night until Du Ruo left before attacking her? This is totally unexplainable.

When Du Ruo saw the situation in the house, he knew that the two had a close relationship, so he closed the door and retreated outside without saying a word.

Li Yanqi took a deep breath, trying to suppress the anger in his chest. He walked to Lin Yanyu and squatted down. He reached out and wiped the blood from her mouth. He asked in a hoarse voice, "Does it hurt?"

People are like this. When they are wronged, they can still endure it when no one cares. But when someone asks about her grievance, especially when there is heartache in that person's eyes, she can't bear it anymore.

Lin Yanyu's tears burst out of her eyes. She couldn't breathe and sobbed loudly, "I, I'm really scared. Li Yanqi, that man, I don't even know him. He, he slapped me in the face last night and knocked me out. My face still hurt when I woke up today."

"He, he wanted to tarnish my innocence. I refused, so he beat me. At that time, I thought that if I was really going to be defiled by such a person, I would rather bite my tongue and commit suicide than..."

"Stop talking!" Li Yanqi felt as if he had been stabbed in the heart. He picked her up and hugged her tightly. He closed his eyes and said, "Stop talking. You will be fine. As long as I am here, you will be fine."

Lin Yanyu was stunned, her whole body pressed against the other's hot chest, listening to his rapid and powerful heartbeat, and forgot to cry.

Li Yanqi hugged her tightly, as if he wanted to merge her into his body. His chest trembled, "Promise me that you will never have such thoughts again. Nothing is more important than your life, understand? I think your parents would think the same way."

"Oh, right! Dad and Mom!" Lin Yanyu raised her head and said quickly, "I have to go home quickly. They must be worried sick if they can't find me."

After carrying her to sit on the bed, Li Yanqi handed her the bronze mirror on the bedside table.

"I don't know if your parents will be anxious if you return home in this state, but I'm afraid you'll scare them to death." Li Yanqi looked confused and said, "Let's take a look."

Her hair was disheveled like a bird's nest, her cheeks were bulging, the corners of her mouth were red and swollen, and her fair cheeks were bruised and purple, which was a very spectacular sight.

Looking at the image in the bronze mirror, Lin Yanyu was shocked herself.

"Last night, your father came to the county government office to report a case. I asked the yamen runners to send your father back, and I also asked a doctor to see your mother. The doctor said your mother was fine, but she was just having a lot of emotional fluctuations." Li Yanqi glanced at her and continued, "If you go back in your current state, your parents will definitely be worried, and they will definitely ask about your experience. What do you say?"

Lin Yanyu was speechless. She couldn't explain anything and looked at Li Yanqi with hope in her eyes.

"I have a special ointment for bodyguards. The wounds on your face look scary, but they are mostly superficial. Apply it and the swelling will go away in less than half a day. I will send you home before sunset tonight, and you can explain yourself then."

Lin Yanyu hesitated, "But my parents..."

"If you are worried that your parents will get anxious, write them a letter to let them know you are safe. I will have the yamen runners deliver it to them."

Her father knew her handwriting, and it was not appropriate for her to show up now and scare her parents, so he could only nod helplessly, "This is the only way for now."

Li Yanqi asked Du Ruo at the door to find some writing brush and ink.

Lin Yanyu listened to Du Ruo's footsteps fading away and said, "I was kidnapped here by a villain. Fortunately, I met Du Ruo. She helped me get the cloth gagged and untied me. When that man wanted to bully me, she desperately knocked on the door to save me."

Thinking of the scars on Du Ruo's face and the conspicuous scar on her forehead, he sighed and said, "It seems that she was sold here by her family. She is quite pitiful. A good girl has ended up in such a place. When I return home, I will ask Dad to come and ask how much gold and silver it will cost to redeem her."

Li Yanqi had never noticed Du Ruo, let alone remembering that he had seen her before when he was collecting debts from the Du family. When he heard Lin Yanyu say this, he just said nonchalantly: "There are so many pitiful people in the world, but you are kind-hearted."

Lin Yanyu wrote a letter to say that she was fine and would be back home at 3 p.m. today, and asked her parents not to worry.

Li Yanqi took the letter and walked out the door. He waved to Ma Xigui, who was waiting in the hall in a yamen uniform, and handed him the letter, whispering, "You'll do your job well. Go to the Lin family and deliver the letter to Mr. Lin. I don't need to teach you what to say and what not to say, right?"

Ma Xigui winked and said with a sneer, "I promise to get it done for you, big brother~"

Li Yanqi ignored his strange appearance, pointed at the big man lying on the ground and said coldly: "Lock this man up and keep him under strict guard. Be careful not to let him die. I will personally interrogate him tonight. You go back to the government office first. Ermu, come to my house if you have anything to say."

Turning back to the room, he saw Lin Yanyu sitting beside the bed, looking at him expectantly with her beautiful eyes. His heart softened, and he said softly, "I'll take you back to my house to apply the medicine first."

After saying that, he tore off the bed curtain, wrapped Lin Yanyu tightly from head to toe, carried her out of the room, tapped the ground lightly with his toes, and disappeared into Chunfeng Garden in a few leaps.

Du Ruo looked at the disappearing figure and sighed sadly: "It turns out that this woman is his sweetheart, why didn't anyone save me?"
