Chapter 189 Tied in the Forest
The two of them came to a nearby grove of trees. Qingsheng then gave Ranmo a thumbs-up, praising her for being so impressive that she had stunned the old man.
In fact, he even wanted to argue with Master Wu about right and wrong earlier, but he really didn't dare. He couldn't compare to the heroine Ran Mo.
Ran Mo quickly stopped him, saying he was forced to do so in a desperate situation and that he should respect his elders. Furthermore, she was an outsider to the old man and could speak more freely, so the two of them couldn't follow her example.
Qingsheng nodded, saying he understood the logic. He then leaned against a tree trunk and opened his arms to Ranmo, signaling him to embrace him. They wanted to comfort each other's nervousness.
This was exactly what she wanted. Ranmo was in dire need of a loving hug. That old man had really scared the baby to death.
"Baby, hug me!" Ranmo pounced coquettishly. Qingsheng hugged her tightly, accidentally knocking his front teeth against Ranmo's forehead. Both of them were in pain and kept rubbing their foreheads or licking their teeth. Qingsheng quickly blew air on Ranmo's forehead to relieve the pain. Ranmo also gently stroked the corner of his mouth.
"Don't be afraid, baby. I'll always be your rock," Qingsheng said firmly. Ranmo's eyes flashed with anticipation. Qingsheng understood, and the two of them, no longer fearing the brief pain, embraced and kissed passionately, completely forgetting their previous carelessness and the turmoil from the previous conversation.
After finally stopping, Qingsheng said with a hint of pride: "We are still lucky. We don't have so many troubles."
Ran Mo looked up at him and asked, "No now, but let me ask you, if we are also obstructed by them in the future, what will you do?"
Qingsheng stared at her with wide eyes and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? This kind of thing will never happen between us. If anyone dares to interfere, I will turn hostile no matter who it is."
Ran Mo saw that he was serious and didn't dare to continue talking nonsense. He hurriedly said, "Husband, that's not what I meant. I meant..."
Qingsheng looked at her eyes in surprise and said, "What did you call me just now? I didn't hear it clearly, speak louder." Ran Mo's face flushed and she refused to call again.
Qingsheng's face turned stern, and he started tickling Ranmo with his hands. Ranmo laughed softly and shouted, "My husband, please forgive me."
Qingsheng then stopped and hugged Ranmo tightly again, saying, "My wife, you are really my good wife. Let's never separate, okay?"
Ran Mo nodded in his embrace, completely intoxicated by his warm embrace and passionate kiss...
The two of them then discussed a countermeasure. Right now, they didn't expect to convince the old man, but rather to rescue Azan as soon as possible.
But where was Azan now? The people in the Wu residence wouldn't hurt him, after all, they'd been in the residence together before. But being trapped and interrogated alone was scary, and there was no telling if he would reveal Young Master Wu's whereabouts.
The two were contemplating what to do when Qingsheng suddenly sensed something was amiss, as if a dangerous aura was approaching.
He separated from Ran Mo and looked around warily. Ran Mo didn't know why, and just as he was about to ask, he saw a group of people gathering outside the grove. They clearly didn't look like ordinary people passing by or just sightseeing.
Sure enough, before the two could go forward to investigate, several servants from the Wu Mansion surrounded them. Their hearts sank. They had found them so quickly.
Just as Qingsheng was about to ask, he heard a strange laugh coming from behind the group. "Haha, haha, you thought you could escape from my grasp? You're still too naive."
The two were stunned by the sound. This old man woke up so quickly. Was he fully revived? Then they saw Master Wu walk out of the crowd and wave to his men on both sides. The group of people were either rubbing their hands in preparation for a fight or surrounding them with long sticks in hand.
The two of them saw that the old man was going to be ruthless. Was it really that serious? After all, Qingsheng's family and the Wu family were old friends.
Master Wu seemed to see through their thoughts and said straightforwardly, "If you don't want us to take action, that's fine. Just surrender and we'll all be good grandfather and grandson."
The two of them were furious when they heard this. This old man is quite good at taking advantage of others. Qingsheng stopped talking and raised his arms, squatting and taking a stance, ready to fight.
Master Wu sneered and said, "Well, if you don't accept my toast, you'll have to drink the punishment." Then he waved his hand, and several burly servants rushed forward and started to fight Qingsheng in close combat.
Qingsheng didn't take them seriously and knocked them to the ground in no time. Master Wu saw this and thought, "Good job, kid. You didn't learn from the teacher in vain."
Master Wu made an eagle hook move and whizzed towards Qingsheng. Qingsheng dodged left and right, avoiding a head-on confrontation.
At this time, another servant rushed forward. Ran Mo was anxious and took off his shoes and threw them at Master Wu, almost hitting him in the face. Master Wu looked annoyed and used Eagle Claw to attack Ran Mo.
Seeing this, Qingsheng rushed over to help Ranmo. Master Wu used all his years of training to engage Qingsheng. Not to mention that the old man was a true martial artist in his youth. If Qingsheng hadn't relied on his youth and strength, he would have had the upper hand.
After several rounds, there was no clear winner. Master Wu, shrewd and calculating, feinted a palm towards Qingsheng's eyes, then struck Qingsheng's ribs with another palm.
Ran Mo almost screamed out in surprise. Qing Sheng had already noticed his move and twisted his body, stabbing Master Wu's waist with a backhanded finger like Zen.
Master Wu groaned and collapsed to the ground, probably from Qingsheng's acupressure and numbing skills.
Startled, Qingsheng quickly reached out to help Master Wu. But Master Wu took advantage of the situation and rolled over, finally stopping on a dirt ridge.
He then gestured to the servants surrounding Qingsheng, and they cast a net from thin air. It landed squarely on Qingsheng, and even the most skilled martial artist would have been afraid of being caught. Qingsheng couldn't move, and several servants seized the opportunity to pounce and pin him down.
Master Wu got up from the ground, nodded with satisfaction, and then stepped closer to Ran Mo. Qing Sheng shouted robustly, "Come at me if you dare! Don't use violence against Ran Mo!"
Mr. Wu glanced at him and said, "Why, are you so arrogant now that you've given up on calling me that?"
Upon hearing this, Qingsheng hurriedly called out, "Master Wu, oh, Uncle Wu, Master Wu, please release Ranmo and I'll go back with you, okay?"
"What use do I have for you? Let me tell you clearly, I'm not just here for that wicked son's matter, I want to teach you young people a lesson for being so ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth. Don't you think we're any more important than you? Then I'll show you what it means when you're older, you're still wiser."
Then he pointed at Ran Mo and said, "Especially you, a despicable litigant. I underestimated you before. I didn't expect that your sweet talk was not only full of nonsense, but also had the power to kill. It would be a pity not to send you to the battlefield to kill the enemy. Fortunately, I am still strong and will come to capture you, a litigant, after a short rest."
He glanced at Qingsheng again and said, "Well, for Sheng'er's sake, and since you look like a powerless person, I won't bully you, a young man. Are you going to come with us on your own, or will you drink the wine for refusing to accept my toast?"
Ran Mo saw the situation and knew she couldn't fight them head-on. Since Master Wu had given her face, she didn't want to worry Qing Sheng, so she said coldly, "I'll go with you, but you have to let Qing Sheng go. Let's go back together openly."
Upon hearing this, Master Wu extended his arms and clapped his hands in front of his right hand. "Well, you still have some courage. Don't try your tricks on me." He gestured to the servants. The servants all stood up, released Qingsheng, and then hurried to remove the net from him.
In fact, they usually get along well with Qingsheng. If they were not forced by the master, they would not be willing to fight with Qingsheng.
Qingsheng stamped his feet, straightened his clothes, then quickly walked over to Ranmo and took his hand. As long as he was there, he would never let Ranmo be bullied.
The two of them comforted each other for a few words, then looked at Master Wu. Master Wu nodded, and everyone followed him into the mansion.
