Chapter 139 If you are delayed, you will be in vain
"Ziyuan, calm down." Gao Yong and Chu Yu each held one of Mo Ziyuan's shoulders. Looking at his expression, it seemed as if he was about to rush over and hit someone in the next second.

"I can't calm down." Mo Ziyuan struggled. "We don't know the situation of those who gave up, nor do we know how many there are in total, let alone what methods they have. Under such circumstances, you let Xin'er be the bait. How dare you bring it up like that?"

Fu Jing's face turned very ugly. In his opinion, saving the emperor's grandson, oh no, it should be the prince now, saving His Royal Highness the Prince was the top priority. If the other party's target was him, he would stand up and be the bait without hesitation.

"Then what do you say we should do? That man has been hiding in the dark. If we don't find him while we are still in the village, it will be easier for him to succeed on the way back to Beijing. If something really happens to His Royal Highness the Prince, who will take the responsibility? You?" Fu Jing also roared.

"I'll take the responsibility!" Mo Ziyuan roared back without showing any weakness.

"What's your reason? Just your mouth?"

"If something really happens, I will never implicate you."

Before they even started looking for the perpetrators, the two of them were arguing like enemies. Gao Yong and the others looked at one and then the other, scratching their heads and not knowing who to help.

"This matter has a lot to do with Miss Lin. Shouldn't you ask her whether she is going to be the bait or not?" Meng Yichen's voice suddenly sounded, immediately attracting Mo Ziyuan's angry glare.

"You don't have to look at me like that," Meng Yichen's voice turned cold. "If you know Miss Lin well enough, you'll know she's not the type to run away from trouble. She'd take the initiative. If she had to choose, she would definitely choose to be the bait."

"you!"

"Don't be so mean, this is about Miss Lin, but you refused her participation without even consulting her. This means that in your heart, you don't regard her as equal to yourself. You don't respect her as much as you show." Meng Yichen's voice was rarely filled with anger. "Mo Ziyuan, just for this reason, you are not worthy of her!"

"You!" Mo Ziyuan wanted to refute his words, but he couldn't find any reason to refute. Just like Meng Yichen said, he could stop Xin'er in person, but he couldn't make decisions for her. No matter what his starting point was, he had no right to make decisions for Xin'er.

"Go talk to Miss Lin!" Meng Yixuan looked at his brother with complicated eyes, walked over and patted Mo Ziyuan on the shoulder.

"...Okay, I'll go right away." Mo Ziyuan finally agreed and turned to look for Lin Xin.

The rest of the people looked at each other, expressing doubts with their eyes. Just now, they all felt the tit-for-tat between Meng Yichen and Mo Ziyuan. Although the fuse was whether Miss Lin would be the bait, in fact, it had nothing to do with whether she would be the bait.

"Okay, let's first think about how to cooperate with Miss Lin to find the person hiding in the dark!" Meng Yixuan broke the slightly heavy atmosphere in the room with a dry cough.

"Okay, I have an idea..." Everyone quickly launched into a heated discussion, as if the previous tension had never existed. Mo Ziyuan went to Lin Xin's house, but was turned away. He heard the villagers' discussions and learned that she and Cui Shi had just gone to town with Nan Nan and Tao Tao.

For a moment, Mo Ziyuan actually felt relieved. He had just been hit hard by Meng Yichen and was quite devastated. He just needed some time to think carefully about the problems in his relationship with Lin Xin.

He knew very well that the continuation of a relationship required not only the momentary excitement when two people met, but more importantly, maintaining this excitement in the future. This was a process that required the active participation of both parties. If one party was discouraged, then even if the two people reluctantly got married, the final outcome would be nothing more than mutual respect or physical harmony, sleeping in the same bed but dreaming different dreams. What's worse, one party would even hope that the other party would die soon, just like his father.

He walked up the mountain alone and found a quiet place with few people to sit down. Meng Yichen's words kept echoing in his mind, and he couldn't help but doubt himself. He cared about her, there was no doubt about that, but his previous idea was to stop the matter before Lin Xin knew about it, because he knew she would definitely choose to agree to be the bait.

Now the problem that troubles him arises. He is obviously worried about her safety, so he tried to stop it before she knew about it, but he also has to admit that he did not respect her wishes in this matter. Does he really not put her on the same level as himself from the bottom of his heart?

Just when Mo Ziyuan was falling into self-doubt, a sudden noise came from a distance. He stood up angrily and looked over. Through the cover of the woods, he vaguely saw a group of people walking out from the depths of the woods, and it seemed that someone was being carried.

He had good eyesight and when they got a little closer, he could tell that the person being carried was Lin Duo. He looked carefully at the group of people and didn't see Lin Zhi. He thought that he must have returned home early to report the news, otherwise so many people wouldn't have gone into the mountains to look for someone.

"Mr. Mo, let's go into the mountains!" The villager who was leading the way saw Mo Ziyuan standing there and greeted him.

"Well, come in and see if there's any prey to hunt," he glanced at the crowd not far behind, "What are you doing..."

"Hey, it's Duo girl from Lin Laosan's family. I don't know what went wrong with her. She ran into the mountains in the middle of the night, deep in the mountains, and ended up encountering a pack of hyenas. Alas! She was torn to pieces, and I don't know if she is still alive." The villagers sighed.

"Is that so? Then you should go and take her to see a doctor. If there's any delay, it will be a waste of effort." Mo Ziyuan knew that Lin Xin had already taught them a lesson after he left last night. His eyes flashed and he said calmly.

"Who said it wasn't? But I don't know what's wrong with that little girl. She insisted on finding Lin Nan's master to treat her injuries. Do you think Lin Nan's master would care about her given their family's situation?"

"Oh, you're lucky you met me. This morning, Elder Cui took Xin'er, Nannan, and Taotao to town. You won't be able to find him. You should go see another doctor!"

"Wow, it's a good thing we ran into you, Mr. Mo, otherwise we would have really planned to take her to see Elder Cui. After all, her injuries are quite serious, and Elder Cui's medical skills are also recognized by everyone. I'll go talk to her right away, so that we don't end up not being able to find anyone and delaying her."

"That's right, go quickly!" Mo Ziyuan finally understood the reason why Lin Xin took Cui Shi away. She was afraid that Lin Duo would come to him and ask him to treat his injuries!
