son, don't mess around

Chapter 786: Silencing and Trust

Hearing the sudden noise outside the door, Hu Yao in the room was startled and looked up suddenly like a frightened bird.

"Miss?!"

At this time, the servant's concerned voice came from outside the door: "Miss, are you okay?"

Hu Yao's expression eased slightly: "I'm fine, what's the matter?"

"The master asked me to come here and ask what happened to the young lady today and why she looks so unhappy."

Hu Yao took a deep breath and regained her composure: "Go back and tell my dad that nothing is wrong and tell him not to worry."

"Yes."

A servant's response came from outside the door, and then her footsteps gradually faded away.

Hu Yao was still sitting in front of the bronze mirror, staring blankly at himself in the mirror, his eyes dazed and in a trance, not knowing what he was thinking about.

After a while, there was another knock on the door.

"What else?!"

Hu Yao's tone was a little impatient. She was in a very bad mood and was already depressed. The annoying noises outside the door made her mentally breakdown.

However, there was only a gentle knock on the door, but no sound was answered.

"Xiao Cui? Is there anything else? Didn't I already tell you..."

Hu Yao stood up, somewhat annoyed, walked quickly to the door, stretched out his hand to open it and shouted.

But at this moment, when Hu Yao appeared at the door and was about to touch the door, she seemed to realize something and suddenly came to her senses.

wrong!

There's something wrong outside the door!
Xiao Cui has been here, why would she come back again?
Also, why was there no response from outside the door?
who is it?

For a moment, a hint of astonishment flashed in Hu Yao's pupils.

The two people were arrested today, and Hu Yao felt extremely uneasy. At this moment, this feeling of uneasiness reached its peak.

"Who?!"

Hu Yao took a big step back, stared at the door, and shouted in a deep voice.

There was still no response from outside the door.

The knocking sound also stopped abruptly at this moment.

Hu Yao's heart suddenly skipped a beat. Something was wrong!

She suddenly opened her eyes and tried to shout to the guards outside the courtyard: "Come..."

"boom!"

A dull crash sounded.

The door of the room was violently knocked open by gravity, and a biting cold wind rushed in from the yard outside the door.

Under the stimulation of the cold wind, Hu Yao's whole body became stiff and numb!
At the same time, a dark shadow broke in from outside the door!

The person is not good!
Are there assassins? !

This was the panicked thought that suddenly popped up in Hu Yao's mind. She took two or three steps back and stared at the person in horror: "Who are you?!"

A man in black appeared in her sight.

His whole body was wrapped in black cloth, revealing only a pair of deep, cold, murderous eyes that were staring at her.

"Here comes someone to take you on your way!"

The man in black had a low, hoarse voice.

Hu Yao opened his mouth and wanted to roar to attract the attention of the guards outside the courtyard.

But as soon as she opened her mouth, her eyes flashed. A man in black appeared in front of her and grabbed her neck.

Hu Yao opened her mouth suddenly, but couldn't utter a word due to suffocation.

There was unconcealable horror in her eyes!

She struggled desperately, but his strength was no match for the man in black. No matter how hard she struggled, it was useless.

On the contrary, the more he struggled, the stronger the suffocating feeling on his neck became.

"Stop struggling and accept your death obediently to avoid pain!"

The man in black spoke in a cold voice, took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, and poured out a black pill.

Hu Yao's expression became even more horrified when he saw the black pill.

No matter how stupid she is, she knows what this is!
Was this an attempt to feed her poison and create the illusion that she committed suicide? !

"Open your mouth!"

Hu Yao covered her mouth tightly and tried to resist.

however.

"Snapped!"

The man in black simply pinched her chin to prevent her from moving, and with a slight force, Hu Yao was forced to open her mouth.

Seeing the man in black reaching out to stuff the pill into her mouth, Hu Yao struggled weakly, her face full of fear and despair.

"who?!"

At this moment, the noise of breaking the door finally attracted the attention of the outsiders, and a voice suddenly rang out.

The sudden voice made the man in black in the room look frightened. Why is there someone else?
Hasn't it all been resolved?
As the eldest daughter of the Hu family, it would be a bit ostentatious for Hu Yao to kill this person openly. The best way is to feed her poison and kill her quietly.

But why would someone suddenly interrupt? !

At this moment, Hu Yao, who was pinched on the chin, was stunned and roared with all his strength.

"Help……!!"

A vague yet sharp sound came from the room.

As soon as he finished speaking, the black-clothed man's expression suddenly changed and became extremely ferocious.

When the noise was heard in the yard, a figure rushed into the room like thunder.

Hu Yao, who was already in despair, gradually suffocating and feeling dizzy, saw a familiar figure appear in a daze.

"Xu, Xu Zhongshan?!"

"Damn it!"

The plan suddenly went wrong and the man in black's face changed suddenly.

The guards outside the courtyard had already been dealt with, and there should be no secret sentries here tonight. I thought it was perfect and I could kill Miss Hu perfectly without attracting anyone's attention.

But he didn't expect that someone would appear out of nowhere and disrupt his plan. At the moment of anger, the murderous intent in the eyes of the man in black suddenly appeared.

This kid must die!

The next second, the man in black let go of Hu Yao and rushed towards Xu Zhongshan.

It was extremely fast and arrived in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, Xu Zhongshan was shocked and angry when he saw this scene.

After meeting Lin Jiangnian tonight, he learned from Lin Jiangnian that this matter was not simple. After the two were arrested by the Secret Heaven Division, Hu Yao was left like a frightened bird.

Both Xu Zhongshan and Lin Jiangnian realized that Hu Yao must be the breakthrough point, and she must have a bigger secret.

Therefore, Xu Zhongshan needs to continue to lurk beside Hu Yao and take advantage of this special period to find a way to completely "conquer" her, gain her trust, and find out the real secret she is hiding.

At the same time, on the other side, before Xu Zhongshan was about to leave, Lin Jiangnian reminded him again, asking him to be careful and also to beware of someone who might come to silence him.

As expected, His Highness had calculated everything!
Tonight, someone really wants to silence me!

Fortunately, Xu Zhongshan originally wanted to take advantage of today's opportunity to sneak into the Hu Mansion and get close to Hu Yao... Anyway, they had had previous contact, so Xu Zhongshan even thought of an excuse.

Unexpectedly, I happened to come across this scene.

At this moment, when the man in black attacked, Xu Zhongshan tensed up, clenched his fists, and instead of retreating, he advanced, his sleeves filled with wind, and punched towards the man in black with a loud bang.

The man in black seemed to have not expected that Xu Zhongshan was not afraid at all and confronted him head-on.

"boom!"

The two men's fists collided, and Xu Zhongshan took a step back to steady himself.

The black-clad man opposite was so powerful that he took several steps back and his face turned pale.

And those fists were trembling slightly in pain.

A trace of horror flashed across the eyes of the man in black, realizing that the boy in front of him should not be underestimated.

"Come and help!"

The man in black growled at the outside of the courtyard, and the next second, there was movement in the courtyard outside the door. Several black shadows fell into the courtyard silently from all directions and quickly approached the room. "Not good!"

Xu Zhongshan's face changed. These people really came prepared tonight. Realizing this, he took a step forward without hesitation, leaped up, and pounced on the man in black.

The man in black knew that he was no match for Xu Zhongshan, so he quickly retreated to avoid Xu Zhongshan's attack.

After forcing the man in black to retreat, Xu Zhongshan turned around and walked to Hu Yao, put his arms around her, picked her up, jumped out of the window nearby, and quickly escaped.

"Stop him!"

The man in black realized something and his expression changed.

We must not let her run away!

If you fail, the consequences will be disastrous.

The men in black gathered in the yard immediately chased after Xu Zhongshan and Hu Yao who jumped out of the window.

"Someone is coming!"

"Help!"

"There are assassins!"

In the yard, Xu Zhongshan escaped from the room carrying Hu Yao, and while running quickly toward the outside of the yard, he gathered his energy and yelled at the top of his voice.

The loud roar, full of energy, was extremely harsh in the silent night and spread throughout the Hu Mansion in an instant.

At the same time, there was movement in the Hu Mansion.

"Is there an assassin?!"

"Where is the assassin?!"

"It seems to be the young lady's place? Go check it out!"

"Quick, report to the master!"

For a moment, the entire Hu residence was in an uproar.

The Hu family was a well-known and prominent family in the capital. After hearing the noise of the assassin, the servants and guards in the mansion finally reacted.

Soon, the guards saw a strange man carrying their daughter out of the backyard. Before they could react, several murderous men in black followed closely behind.

"Oh no, there really is an assassin!"

"Quick, stop them!"

"The young lady has been kidnapped, hurry up and catch up with her and save her!"

The guards in the mansion drew their swords and rushed forward, trying to stop these black-clad assassins.

However, the martial arts of these black-clad assassins were much better than those of the guards of the Hu Mansion. As soon as they met, these guards fell to the ground one after another.

At this moment, these black-clad assassins no longer hid.

I had intended to kill Hu Yao quietly tonight, and everything was going to go smoothly, but I didn't expect an uninvited guest to show up in the middle of the process.

Right now, there is no need to worry about being quiet or not.

If Hu Yao doesn't die, all of them will die tonight!
Thinking of this, the black-clad assassins no longer held back and drew their swords and chased after him like crazy.

These black-clad assassins were skilled in martial arts, and coupled with their desperate madness, the guards of the Hu residence were simply unable to stop them.

In just a moment, these guards fell down one after another with screams.

Xu Zhongshan took a breath when he saw this scene.

These assassins in black are really crazy!

run!
You must run quickly!
Xu Zhongshan held Hu Yao in his arms and ran forward without looking back.

At this moment, Hu Yao, being held in Xu Zhongshan's arms, came back to her senses as if awakened from a dream.

She subconsciously hugged Xu Zhongshan's neck, looked up at this familiar face, and was a little dazed for a moment, with a strong sense of security in her heart.

It is him again!
At the critical moment, she was saved!

At this moment, Hu Yao's heart was uncontrollably shaken by an impulsive thought.

Her vision gradually became blurry.

She had a dazed look in her eyes and just let herself curl up in Xu Zhongshan's arms, feeling inexplicably safe.

Even though there were assassins chasing him at this moment, Hu Yao felt that it was no longer important.

……

It's quiet at night.

On the dim street.

Taking advantage of the turmoil in Hu's mansion, the guards delayed the black-clad assassins. Although they failed to delay them for long, they bought Xu Zhongshan some time.

Xu Zhongshan took the opportunity to carry Hu Yao and escape from the Hu Mansion, and went into the alley of the nearby residential area.

Having lived in Beijing for so many years, Xu Zhongshan knew the topography of the capital city like the back of his hand. He carried Hu Yao into the alley and felt like a fish in water, his figure quickly disappearing into the darkness.

Not long after, seven or eight strong auras followed and approached. They were seven or eight men in black clothes and masks. At this moment, their eyes were extremely sharp.

"Where are the people? Where did they go?!"

"Search, we must find the person!"

"If we can't find him, we'll all die!"

Murderous voices rang out, and the seven or eight people dispersed in a very organized and disciplined manner and rushed into the houses in the alley.

At this moment, it is late at night and the lights are dim.

Inside a residential house.

Xu Zhongshan carried Hu Yao to the door of the room. After making sure that there was no one around, he entered the room, closed the door, and made sure that no one was chasing them. He finally felt relieved.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Zhongshan put Hu Yao down, squatted on the ground, and gasped heavily.

His face was a little pale, and his internal energy was severely depleted when he was escaping just now. Not to mention that he was holding someone, he couldn't run far if he continued to run.

I can only find a way to hide first.

"Are you okay?!"

Hu Yao's concerned voice was heard nearby.

Xu Zhongshan looked up and met Hu Yao's nervous and frightened eyes in the dark. At this moment, the previously spoiled Miss Hu had lost all her rebelliousness.

At this moment, her clothes were disheveled, her expression was disheveled, and her eyes were full of panic and fear.

"fine."

Xu Zhongshan shook his head: "Miss Hu, what about you?"

"I, I'm fine too..."

Hu Yao's voice trembled slightly, she was still in doubt. The assassination tonight was a big shock to her.

She almost died.

"What exactly is going on?!"

Xu Zhongshan glanced at her casually, with a worried look on his face: "Miss Hu, why would there be men in black trying to assassinate you tonight? Who are they?!"

Hearing this question, Hu Yao remained silent, her eyes full of fear. She had been uneasy tonight, always feeling that something big was going to happen!
Sure enough, it was verified!

Someone wants to kill her and silence her!
As for who wanted to silence her? !
Suddenly, Hu Yao already had the answer in her mind.

Her body was trembling slightly, and fear, horror, and disappointment kept appearing in her eyes.

She opened her lips slightly, but ultimately said nothing.

"Miss Hu?"

At this moment, Xu Zhongshan's face was full of worry: "These men in black are powerful. They want to kill you, Miss Hu. If they fail tonight, I'm afraid they won't let it go."

“Next time, it will definitely come back.”

Hearing this, Hu Yao's body trembled again.

"So, what's going on?"

Xu Zhongshan looked at the distraught Hu Yao and asked, "Miss Hu, do you know who assassinated you?"

"Tell me, I'll help you solve it. Who wants to kill you?"

"Don't worry, no one can hurt you with me here!"

"!!!"
