Liu Zhimo nodded, and ran over to help Old Man Xue and the others. After all the people were bandaged, he got the guards to personally send them home, and only after doing all that did he return to the courtyard to look for Li Qingling.

"Why don"t you take a break?" Liu Zhimo quickly walked in front of Li Qingling, bent down slightly, and touched her face, "Are you waiting for me? "Hmm?"

Li Qingling looked up at him and smiled, "I just woke up, are you done with your work?" She couldn"t sleep, so she decided to get out of bed.

Liu Zhimo sat at the side and nodded at her, "I"m done." Pausing, "Where did you meet him … Hero"s? How did Ning Ning know him? " If it wasn"t for the man in black, who knew what would have happened?

When it came to the black clothed man, Li Qingling"s expression was difficult to explain. After a while, she revealed the whole story.

The group of them fled to the Ningxia, with the enemies following closely behind. They did not dare to stay behind, and continued to walk deeper into the Ningxia.

Fortunately, they were familiar with the Ningxia and were able to quickly shake off the enemies.

In order not to let the enemy find them, they continued to walk deeper into the mountains until they found a cave. Only then did they stop to rest.

At that moment, he met the man in black.

No, to be more accurate, the black clothed men appeared in front of them, scaring them so much that they thought they were enemies.

The guards almost attacked, but luckily Ning Ning called them uncle and the black clothed man responded. He knew that they were friends, and thus avoided a battle.

The black-clothed man asked Ning Ning if anything had happened to them.

Ning Ning explained everything to his in a few words, and asked the black clothed man if he could save her brother-in-law.

The black clothed man patted Ning Ning"s head and nodded, telling her to be at ease while he waited on the mountain.

Only then would the black clothed man save Ah Huang in the nick of time, reversing the situation for Liu Zhimo and the rest.

If not for the arrival of the black clothed man, who knows what would have happened to Liu Zhimo and the rest?

They were very grateful to the black clothed man for his help.

"Liu Shi said that they are Unholy Killer."

"What?" Li Qingling"s eyes widened, and looked at Liu Zhimo without blinking, "They are Unholy Killer?"

Wasn"t Liu Zhimo being chased by the Unholy Killer the last time? This time …

She smiled bitterly. Fate loved to play tricks on people. One time she was killed, one time she was saved.

She didn"t know whether to thank him or resent him.

Liu Zhimo patted Li Qingling"s head and smiled as he advised her, Unholy Killer used money to kill people, they cannot be blamed for it. They had saved their lives this time, and he was their savior.

One yard to one yard, no more confusion.

Sighing slightly, Li Qingling nodded and said that she knew.

It was just when she suddenly heard this news that she felt a little uncomfortable.

She was not a person who did not understand reason. She would not be confused.

Liu Zhimo pinched her nose and changed the topic to ask if she was hungry.

Li Qingling shook his head and said thathe wasn"t hungry. After she returned, she ate and told him not to change the topic and asked him about the situation over here.

He didn"t want her to know of such a b.l.o.o.d.y situation, so he changed the topic. He didn"t expect her to be unable to avoid him.

He smiled helplessly and quickly explained the situation on his side.

Although she knew a little about it when she came back, she was still touched by the details.

She sighed with emotion, "I didn"t expect the people to protect you this much!" They didn"t even care about their own lives.

This also proved that they had seen Liu Zhimo"s contribution to them and remembered it in their hearts.

As a County Magistrate, Liu Zhimo felt very happy to be protected by the commoners.

"I will not let the citizens down by protecting me. I will do everything in my power to improve their lives."

"Alright, I"ll support you."

Liu Zhimo leaned over and kissed Li Qingling"s forehead, saying, "Thank you, my wife."

If he got a wife like this, what else could he ask for?

No matter how many times he said it, he still felt that in his previous life, he had cultivated a lot of blessings and acc.u.mulated a lot of blessings in order to meet such a good person like her.

He would definitely cherish her.

Li Qingling rolled his eyes at him, calling them husband and wife, what"s the point of being so polite?

"Alright, alright, alright …" Liu Zhimo smiled and kissed her again, "I won"t say it next time." He would let her feel his love in his actions.

That"s more like it. She smiled in satisfaction and asked him what he planned to do with his enemies.

Liu Zhimo said that he did not know, but everything depended on the emperor"s decision.

This matter was of great importance, and it was not something that a small county like him could decide.

When the imperial edict was pa.s.sed down, what orders would he give?

Before the imperial edict was issued, he would let the guards guard the prison again. He wouldn"t let the enemy escape.

Li Qingling nodded, he pondered for a moment, then looked at Liu Zhimo, and said with furrowed brows. Didn"t Magistrate Ma go and ask for help? Why isn"t he back yet? Was it because the Magistrate refused to send people over?

Logically speaking, there was no need to spend so much time to get here from the city.

It was very possible that it was because the Magistrate was not willing to send anyone, which was why they were delayed for so long.

Just as she said that, Nian Xia ran in quickly and said that Magistrate Ma was here.

Hearing this news, Liu Zhimo immediately stood up and walked out.

When Magistrate Ma saw that An Yang was safe and sound, he heaved a sigh of relief and walked over guiltily, "Master, I"m too late."

Liu Zhimo raised his hand slightly, allowing him to come in to speak.

After Li Qingling heard Liu Zhimo"s words, he tactfully entered the inner room and left some s.p.a.ce for Liu Zhimo to properly entertain him.

Liu Zhimo once again sat down on the chair, and pointed to the chair beside him, making Magistrate Ma sit down, then personally poured him a cup of tea, allowing him to quench his thirst.

Magistrate Ma cupped his hands respectfully to Liu Zhimo, lifted up his robes, and sat on a chair by the side. He picked up a teacup and drank a cup of tea.

Seeing that his teacup was empty, Liu Zhimo poured another cup for him, telling him not to worry.

After drinking two cups of tea to quell his thirst, Magistrate Ma finally put down the teacup. He glanced at Liu Zhimo, then spoke with a face full of guilt, saying that he was incapable and had failed to return in time.

By the time he returned, he knew that the matter had been resolved and that Liu Zhimo was safe and sound. Only then did he finally stop worrying, but at the same time, he felt very guilty, thinking that he was unable to help Liu Zhimo.

"How many people did you bring back?"

"Two... "Two hundred." These two hundred people were people he had begged his grandfather to tell his grandma.

Thinking about Magistrate"s face made him extremely angry.

If not for the fact that Magistrate was unwilling to let him go, he wouldn"t have taken so long to return.

Fortunately the Lord is fine, otherwise, he would definitely not let Magistrate go.

Liu Zhimo wanted to know where these two hundred people came from. He reached out and patted Magistrate Ma"s shoulder, saying that it had been hard on him.

Magistrate Ma shook his head. If he couldn"t help Master, how could he have the face to?

"Tell me about your situation, and let me know."

Magistrate Ma nodded, and explained the situation to him in detail.

After saying that, Liu Zhimo snorted, he did not believe that the Magistrate would not know of his situation, it was clear that he did not want to send troops to support him.

Since that"s the case, then don"t blame him for being ruthless.

"Magistrate Ma, I"ll have to trouble you to inform them to return to the city by themselves." After Liu Zhimo finished speaking, he added another sentence, "You should go home and have a good rest, you should head to the yamen tomorrow."

Magistrate Ma replied and left.

Liu Zhimo sat on the chair, and looked at the outside with profound eyes. What was he thinking?

When Li Qingling walked out, what he saw was exactly this scene. She stood at the same place for a while, and then let out a soft cough.

Coming back to his senses, he turned to Li Qingling and smiled at her, then extended his hand out to her.

Li Qingling walked over, extended his hand and grabbed her hand, then asked her what she was thinking about, why was she so lost in thought?

He shook his head slightly and didn"t think of anything else. He reached out his hand to touch her belly, then leaned his head against her belly and asked softly, "Is the baby obedient?"

As soon as he asked this question, a lump appeared on her belly.

He chuckled and touched the bag with his hand, "Baby, I"m your dad, feel it? I am your father. "

Li Qingling lowered his head and looked at him gently.

When he finished talking to the baby, he looked up at her, met her eyes, and said, "The baby said he knew I was his dad."

"..." He really was an idiot …

Li Qingling laughed helplessly, and reached out to tug on his ear, "How did you hear what the baby said, why can"t I hear it?" She was afraid that after the baby was born, he would become more and more stupid.

He gave her a smug look and said he had a secret way of communicating with the baby. How could she hear him?

"..." She was one hundred percent sure that this father was truly foolish.

Liu Zhimo stood up, using both hands to hold her face, lowering his head and pressing it against her forehead, he asked her if she didn"t believe him?

She wasn"t a fool, so how could she believe it?

"Then tell me, what secret communication method do you have?"

"I can"t say it, this is a secret between me and the baby, how can I tell you?"

Li Qingling rolled his eyes at him, making him laugh out loud.

It made her speechless. She raised her hand to cover his mouth and stared at him, not allowing him to laugh.

What"s so funny? This guy …

Liu Zhimo smiled as he bent his eyes. When he looked at her, he stuck out his tongue and licked the palm of her hand, scaring her so much that she quickly retracted her hand and wiped it on his robe.

"You are playing a hooligan." She looked at him accusingly.

"Who did I play hooligan with?" Liu Zhimo looked at her innocently, "Can"t I just openly kiss my wife? "Hmm?"

This fellow"s skin was getting thicker and thicker. He often made her speechless.

Li Qingling glared at him again, wanting to take his hand off and sit on the chair.

He just didn"t want to let go of her.

"My wife …"

"Hmm …"

"My wife …"

"What?"

"My wife …"

"If you have something to say, say it …" Don"t do that to her all day.

"I love you …"

"Hmm …" Li Qingling subconsciously answered, but after he finished, he looked at him with an incredulous expression, "What did you say? "Say it again."

Liu Zhimo laughed and said.

How could he forget about it? It couldn"t be counted.

It was with great difficulty that she heard these words. How could she miss them again?

"Husband, can you say it again?" "How about it?"

"This is bad …"

Liu Zhimo really enjoyed Li Qingling"s coquettish actions. He intentionally turned his head away and was unwilling to agree to her request.

Li Qingling held his face, tilted his head, and faced her, "Husband, say it again, okay? "What do you think?" She really wanted to hear those two words again.

Although she knew he loved her, she still wanted to hear those three words.

Feeling that it was about time, Liu Zhimo stopped teasing her.

He looked at her and said with a serious expression: "Xiao Ling, I love you. When my life was under threat, I just regretted not being able to tell you that I love you." He looked into her moist eyes and continued, "I love you very much. I will love you forever. Did you hear that?" If he didn"t hear it, he would say it again.

Seeing her so moved, he suddenly felt that he had done something wrong earlier and should have told her earlier.

Although action would let her know that he loved her, words came out of his mouth that felt different.

Perhaps in the future, he could say these two words to her more often to make her happy.

He felt that nothing was more important than being happy.

Li Qingling strongly blinked his eyes, then bloomed into a beautiful smile towards him, and softly said to him, "She loves him too."

She loved him, too, very much.

Hearing her love words, his heart softened as he lowered his head and kissed her red lips.

Li Qingling tiptoed and hugged his neck, replying.

The two of them kissed in an inseparable manner, until they heard Li Qingning"s voice, only then did they part ways.

"Aiyo, I didn"t see anything, I didn"t see anything. You guys continue."

Li Qingning rushed in like a calf and suddenly saw that her sister and brother-in-law were kissing, causing her to shyly turn around and look at him again.

Actually, it wasn"t that she was embarra.s.sed to look, but that she was afraid that if she did, her brother-in-law would punish her.

Thus, she tactfully turned around.

Li Qingling"s face flushed red. It was unknown if he was embarra.s.sed or if he just kissed him.

She lightly pounded on his chest, pouting at him. It was all his fault for embarra.s.sing her again.

Liu Zhimo comforted Li Qingling and rubbed his head, then glanced at Li Qingning without changing his expression: "Ning Ning, what"s the matter?" Don"t bother him with his wife.

Oh no, oh no, was Brother-in-law going to punish her?

Li Qingning twisted his little finger, and chuckled, and said that she had something important to do, can she turn around now?

Wasn"t it better for her to speak behind their backs like this?

She rolled her eyes in a weird way, wanting to see what her brother-in-law was doing with her.

Liu Zhimo snorted, making her turn his head around.

Li Qingning turned to look at Liu Zhimo, then looked at Li Qingling, and started chuckling.

Her laugh made Li Qingling"s face turn red, and Liu Zhimo"s face turn black.

He looked at Li Qingling who was staring at him, and laughed ingratiatingly. In the blink of an eye, when he looked at Li Qingning, his face darkened once again.

"Ning Ning, if you have nothing else, go out."

"No, no, I have something to say, really." Li Qingning quickly put down her small hands and fiercely nodded her head, "Brother Ming, you need to stay here for a few days."

Brother Ming?

Liu Zhimo and Li Qingning looked at each other. Could it be the person they were thinking of?

Li Qingling cleared his throat and asked Li Qingning. The Brother Ming she mentioned, was it the man in black who saved brother-in-law?

"That"s right, that"s him." Li Qingning replied, "Can we have Brother Ming stay in our house for a few days?" She wanted to let Brother Ming carry her everywhere, the feeling of flying was too fun.

If only she was as powerful as Brother Ming, she could fly wherever she wanted to.

Unfortunately, she had only practiced martial arts for a short period of time and was unable to fly.

Can she say no?

Li Qingling speechlessly pursed his lips, and unwillingly nodded his head and said yes.

In her heart, she didn"t want Li Qingning to come into contact with the black-clothed man too much, in case something bad happened to him.

Since the black clothed man was their family"s savior, they had no choice but to agree to his small request.

If they did not agree to his request, then it would appear that they would not be able to repay his kindness.

Li Qingning didn"t know what Li Qingling was thinking about, but when she heard that Li Qingling had agreed, she joyfully jumped for a moment, saying that she would tell Brother Ming this good news.

After Li Qingning ran far away, Li Qingling looked at Liu Zhimo worriedly, "Is it really okay to let Ning Ning and the black man come in so much contact?" She was really worried.

"It"s fine. He"ll be staying for a few days and then he"ll leave. He won"t be coming back, so don"t worry too much."

When Ning Ning didn"t see the black-clothed man again, he would just forget about it after a while.

"I hope so …"

When the black-clothed man saw Li Qingning running towards him excitedly, he knew that it was good news.

Before he could say anything, the little fellow had already begun chattering.

"Brother Ming, Brother Ming, my sister and the others have already agreed to let you stay for a few days." Li Qingning"s bright eyes looked at the black clothed man as she excitedly asked, "In a few days time, where are we going to play?"

The black clothed man reached out and picked up Li Qingning, smiling as he asked her where she wanted to go to play.

Even he didn"t expect that one day, he would be so indulgent towards a little girl, allowing her to act like a spoiled child and issue orders to him.

He didn"t even know why, but he liked to see her smile, and when he saw her smile, he felt like he had nothing to worry about.

Perhaps a dark man like him would like to approach pure light!

Li Qingning whispered into his ear that she wanted to go play in the Ningxia.

She had not gone to the Ningxia to play. Now that she had the chance, she did not want to let it go.

She planned to take advantage of this opportunity to play crazily for a few days.

With Brother Ming here, even if elder sister and brother-in-law found out, they wouldn"t say anything about her.

"Alright …" When the black clothed man saw the look in Li Qingning"s eyes, he immediately nodded his head.

"Really?" Li Qingning covered her mouth, afraid that she would be too excited to shout.

The man in black tapped her nose and laughed and said it was true.

How could he lie to her?

Looking at the little guy"s expression, was she really that fond of playing in the mountains?

"Do your family not allow you to go up the mountain to play?" Otherwise, she wouldn"t be so excited.

Li Qingning guiltily rolled her eyes, and nodded her head, "There are wolves in the Ningxia, so big sister is not allowed to let me go up the mountain alone to play. Last time, I went up the mountain alone a few times, and after returning, big sister found out about it, and punished me to not go out for a month." Thinking of the punishment she had received that time, she trembled in fear.

She didn"t want to be punished like that again. It was too painful.

She would rather write fifty big words than not go out for a month.

His sister had grabbed hold of her sore spot, which was why she issued such a punishment.

Too bad, too bad, sister is really too bad.

Hearing this, the black clothed man"s face turned cold, "Are you talking about the time you saved me?"

Li Qingning acknowledged.

"Brother Ming will bring you to the mountain for fun these few days, okay?" It was enough to make up for the punishment he received last time, "But, when no one is taking you up the mountain, you can"t go up, you know?" Although he was unhappy about the little girl"s sister punishing his, he knew that the little girl"s sister was doing this for the little girl"s own good. She was afraid that she would be in danger, so he forbade her from going up the mountain.

As for the other matters, he could let them go, but for this matter, he would not let them go.

If this audacious little girl really ran up the mountain by herself and something happened to her, then he would have no more regrets.

Seeing the serious expression on the black clothed man, Li Qingning nodded her head obediently. She said she knew, she wouldn"t go up the mountain alone to play.

For the sake of her little life, she would not easily climb the mountain alone.

The black clothed man pinched Li Qingning"s small face and said that she was truly obedient.

In his heart, he was thinking about how he should get people to go to the Ningxia and chase the ferocious beasts to other mountains so that one day the little girl would really run up the mountain and run into some danger.

The men in black felt a cold wind blow past them from behind, causing them to shiver.

They looked at each other, as if some conspiracy was approaching them.

And the one who sent this message, was bringing a certain little girl through the Ningxia.

The little girl obediently hugged the man in black and let out a string of bell-like laughter from her mouth.

It was fun, really fun.

If only he could play here every day.

"Brother Ming, how about you stay in my house?" This way, he could take her up the mountain every day to play, and his sister and the others wouldn"t have to worry about her being in danger.

She felt that this was killing two birds with one stone.

Little did she know that her elder sister was extremely worried that she would be taken away by the black-clothed man.

However, this heartless little girl had no idea what her elder sister was thinking.

The man in black laughed and patted her head lovingly, "You little girl, you want me to play with you on the mountain every day, right?" Why else would she want him to stay in her house?

Even though this little girl was young, she had a lot of clever ideas.

Li Qingning laughed and told the black clothed man about the benefits of staying with her.

This made the man in black unable to stop laughing. This little girl was too funny.

"Brother Ming, what are you laughing at? What"s so funny? " There were so many benefits to being in her home, and she wasn"t lying to him.

The man in black had not laughed like this in a long time. He wiped the physiological tears from the corner of his eyes, then patted the little girl"s head, saying that he would stop laughing and stop laughing.
