The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 2791: Chapter 2791: Mission Failure (5)

Yong Cang in the side room had naturally heard the commotion outside, knowing it had failed. Despite being anxious, he dared not reveal himself rashly.

Just as he was debating whether to go out, there was a knock on the door, followed by Xiaofeng’s voice: "Brother Yong Cang, an assassin has come to the house. Don’t come out, don’t get hurt."

Yong Cang furrowed his brow with an inexplicable feeling, but he still opened the door: "What’s going on exactly?"

"I don’t really know. Some people in black came to cause trouble, but it’s okay. Senior Dao Xuzi’s medicine is very effective. Whoever comes falls, no matter how skilled they are. So, you don’t need to worry." Xiaofeng waved his hand like a little adult.

Yong Cang’s mouth twitched. Several of those outside were his people. How could he not be worried? After all, coming to Daxuan wasn’t easy, so everyone he brought was precious.

However, he couldn’t speak up or get angry.

"You stay here. I’ll go take a look." Xiaofeng chuckled and then turned to leave.

Watching Xiaofeng’s departing figure, Yong Cang’s face suddenly turned grim. He raised his hand to grab at the boy’s back; grabbing him now would have the same effect.

However, just before his hand could reach Xiaofeng, a flash of gold appeared.

Yong Cang hurriedly withdrew his hand, narrowly avoiding Jinzi’s venomous fangs.

Jinzi hadn’t truly meant to bite, so it simply turned in the air and landed back on Xiaofeng’s shoulder.

"Jinzi, stop fooling around." Xiaofeng tapped Jinzi on the head, then quickly ran toward the backyard, a triumphant smile playing at the corners of his mouth.

Jinzi lay on Xiaofeng’s shoulder, flicking its tongue at Yong Cang.

Yong Cang’s brow furrowed deeply, but he was helpless.

The next day, the two groups of black-clad men in the backyard were taken away by people from the County Governor’s Office.

"Young Master, I was inefficient in carrying out the task." Shi Tian bowed with a suppressed voice in front of Yong Cang, "Please punish me."

Yong Cang shook his head: "What was that group for?"

"It was for the pregnant woman in the next courtyard."

"What’s that woman’s identity?"

Shi Tian shook his head; he didn’t know.

"Find a way to get her out of the Governor’s Office," Yong Cang said after a moment of silence. "If it’s really impossible, then leave no one behind." To prevent any leaks.

"Yes." Shi Tian left.

Yong Cang pondered for a moment and left the room. He originally thought it wouldn’t be difficult to figure out Long Qingye’s identity, but it turned out to be not so easy. When he brought it up casually, no one picked up the thread.

The more this happened, the more curious he became.

Yang Ruxin already knew that Yong Cang had moved into the house, her eyes narrowing dangerously. Otherwise, she would have had to go find him. Now that he had come himself, it was quite convenient.

"I’ll go back with you." Gu Qingheng, knowing the danger surrounding Yong Cang, was worried.

"No need." Yang Ruxin shook her head. "You’ve just officially taken over the Xiudao Guards. The Emperor won’t let you go, and besides, Haijin City still has the Taibai Building, which needs your attention." After a pause, she added, "As for Yong Cang, I can handle it just fine." Her tone carried a hint of grit, ready to retaliate at being deceived.

Far away in the village, Yong Cang inexplicably shivered. Was it because he got cold in the rain?

Meanwhile, Gu Qingheng embraced his wife, resting his head in the crook of her neck. As they were about to part, why was it so hard for him?
