Chapter 620: Assassins
Chapter 620: Assassins
Aunt Wang was immediately alarmed when she heard Yu Dong say that the child was being chased by someone and could not help but say, ” If this is the case shouldn’t we leave her behind? What if the people who are chasing after her come after you?” She then paused and added hesitatingly, “It’s not that Aunt is being too nosy and heartless but you already have enough on your plate, Xiao Hua is being stalked by someone and then there is also the matter of Fang Chi being pregnant, you don’t want to take something like this on your plate as well, what will happen to you in case the people who are after this girl come looking for her?”” I mean …you are a woman with a family as well!”
Aunt Wang was not being cruel at all, she was just being careful. After all, Yu Dong was not alone, she was a woman who had people to whom she has to be responsible as well, if she was to take this hot potato into her hands then there will be a lot of trouble waiting for her in the future.
Yu Dong knew this as well but when she looked at the young girl she couldn’t bring herself to leave her behind, she was so young and vulnerable …what if she left her here and her attackers come looking for her? Wouldn’t this young child’s blood fall on her hands as well?
” I know that you mean well, Aunt Wang,” said Yu Dong as she looked at the young girl whose breathing has gone smooth now that she was done sipping on the spiritual water, even though Yu Dong did not know who this child was, but she could feel that the child seemed to be someone who was trained in martial arts at least she could feel dense Qi inside the child’s body together with the fact that child though unconscious knew that what she was drinking was something good because she continued to sip the spiritual water for a very long time.
” But I cannot leave this child behind, if she is killed then I will certainly feel like I had a hand in her death,” Yu Dong was an officer who always had a clear conscience, she would treat those who had bad intentions with her fists and wouldn’t even blink her eyes when she saw them losing their eyes but too young kids and weak gender, she couldn’t help but soften her stance. ” I don’t want to see this child die just because I was worried to take on a bit of trouble.”
” You…” Aunt Wang wanted to say something but she was stopped by Yu Dong who raised the child in her arms and then handed her to Aunt Wang and said, ” Just take a look at her aunt, she is looking like a doll. I think I will take her as a house daughter-in-law instead of marrying one of my kids away.”
” Think of this as me using this chance to keep one of my kids at home.”
Aunt Wang was simply speechless when she heard Yu Dong, only someone like her would want to keep a mer at home but when she looked at the young girl who was sleeping in Yu Dong’s arms, she had to nod and agree, ” She is indeed good looking.”
” Isn’t she?” Seeing that she successfully changed the topic Yu Dong heaved a sigh of relief, what she did not tell Aunt Wang was that while she was taking care of the young girl, she noticed a really precious jade and letter in the child’s pocket, nor did she tell Aunt Wang that the child was sick because she was poisoned and not because of the inflaming of her wounds. She did not want Aunt Wang to be troubled which was why she hid the things inside in her space, regarding this matter it was better for Aunt Wang to know as less as possible. The better will it be.

When Yu Dong was thinking about this and Aunt Wang was thinking that she might have been fooled, Lang returned with the clothes and bandages. Yu Dong dressed the child’s wounds before changing her clothes and then handed the clothes to Lang as she said, ” Throw these clothes somewhere else, maybe it will be better if you burn them.”
Lang did not understand these weird orders but she was used to following Yu Dong which was why she agreed and then did as Yu Dong asked her and burned the clothes away in a faraway alley. Once she was done Lang returned to the carriage and drove carriage away with the child.
…
” You can look away now consort,” said a woman as she looked at the mer who was looking at the child who was being taken away from him and felt her heartache. ” I have made sure that our child will be taken care of, that family looks well to do, they will take care of her. In such times many parents abandon their children, and the woman will not doubt anything.”
The mer who was as delicate as a small lily in the middle of the pond trembled and wiped his tears with the help of the handkerchief that he had in his hands and then turned to look at the woman behind him and said, ” I am not crying because I am worried, of course I know that you will make sure that our child will never be bullied but I am crying because ….” He turned to look at the carriage that was driving away with a wistful look in his eyes. ” Because I don’t know when I will see my daughter again, or maybe I will ever see her again. I wanted to tell her that I love her with all my heart and that I am not abandoning her but with the poison in her body, she couldn’t even hear me …what if she thinks that we abandoned her? And what if that woman can’t save our daughter?”
” She is a commoner, will she even know that our child is poisoned?” He asked with a worried look on his face. He looked at the mer who was on the back of his wife and said, ” Even the second consort cannot fight that poison, how will our daughter do it?”
” I——” the woman began speaking but then she suddenly sensed the assassins who were after them coming and immediately grasped hold of the waist of her husband while carrying the other one on her back and vanished from the spot.
