ble and wouldn't hurt her, so she readily agreed without hesitation!Lin Meng lowered her head, embarrassed by his smiling eyes.He took a sip of red wine, and his eyes suddenly turned wicked.My conditi...Li Yiping entered the room at this moment and saw the doctor again. Hearing that Li Lanqiu was fine, she felt relieved and was able to calm down slightly. Her words were a little more coherent as she recounted everything that had happened before, trying not to leave out anything.

After thinking for a moment, Rong Ling directly analyzed.

"In that case, the cause of all this is Li Lanqiu's husband hiding the poison. If I'm not mistaken, it should be drugs!"

Because only this thing can drive people insane and make them chased for thousands of miles.

"It's estimated that the amount of drugs won't decrease, otherwise there wouldn't be a need to chase them this far!"

He said whatever came to mind without any reservation because he wanted to tell these things to his woman and receive her understanding.

“These people are speaking Mandarin. It's very possible they were hired. Otherwise, if they followed all the way from Italy, they should be speaking Italian or English. And they should also look like foreigners. However, foreigners here would stand out. If they were to take action, it would be easy to catch them. They’re smart enough to know they should hire locals. This is a breakthrough. Find these people, and maybe we can find out something!”

Li Lanqiu studied in Vienna at first, and later married an Italian businessman. After graduating, she settled in Italy. Therefore, Rong Ling analyzed it this way.

“Of course, Lee Lanqiu, if you can remember your husband's affairs, that would be best. As they say, they want the goods, basically, if you hand them over, basically nothing will happen. The Italian mob is also very rule-abiding, generally no harm to women and children!”

Li Lanqiu felt a pain in her body, but her heart was excited. It seemed that Rong Ling knew quite a lot. He must be one of the people the organization suspected. The more shrewd and capable Rong Ling appeared, the higher his chances became. Bringing up the poison as bait was to test his abilities. Hopefully, he wouldn't let everyone's suspicions fall through.

She hid her feelings well, Li Lanqiu replying weakly.

"I don't know anything, my mind is blank, I have no memory at all!"

Rong Ling's brow furrowed slightly before returning to her usual icy composure.

Li Yiping was a little worried, her hands clutched tightly together, as if she hadn't fully escaped the horror of what had happened. "Those people threatened that they would give Lanqiu three days. Rongling, what can we do in three days!"

Li Lanqiu burst into tears again.

"Please, don't leave me, I'm afraid…"

The frail and pitiful appearance should have been able to stir a man's compassion, but when Lin Meng saw it, she felt strangely uncomfortable. She didn't say anything though, just pursed her lips, waiting to see how Rong Ling would respond.

"You'll be fine."

This man's words sometimes ring like proverbs, so profound and impactful that they leave no room for doubt. It seems as if whatever he says has the power to become reality.

When Lin Meng heard this, she felt a sour taste in her heart, a bitter feeling.

"I'll have people protect you. But it would be best if you could remember what happened, otherwise things will get very complicated."

Li Lanqiu smiled through tears, her eyes brimming with emotion as she looked at Rong Ling. "That's great, Rong. I knew you wouldn't leave me behind. As long as I'm by your side, I'll slowly remember what I've forgotten!"

"You can't live here!" Rong Ling said this.

Lin Meng was originally fuming mad, but upon hearing this, she felt much better and thought that things might not be as bad as she had imagined.

In this world, there is no place safer than the barracks. Even if someone wanted to kill you, their firepower wouldn't be enough to get them past the military. Yiping---

Rong Ling looked at Li Yi Ping. "You tell Zhan Su, send Li Lan Qiu to the army for placement, this is the best."

Li Yiping was truly taken aback. She hadn't expected Rong Ling to come up with this idea. Indeed, there was no place safer than the military. Her husband had some authority, so at that time, under the guise of family, he could arrange a small room for Li Lanqiu in the barracks for temporary residence. It should be no problem, but --

Before she could even voice her concerns, Li Lanqiu roared.

"No!"

She spoke too resolutely, immediately drawing the attention of others.

Li Lanqiu bit her lip, looking at Rong Ling. She was both wronged and heartbroken.

“I left the He family today because Old Mrs. He drove me out. She said plainly that I am her person, so she is bothered by me in her heart, so my brother-in-law definitely won’t help with this!”

Li Yiping's face immediately flushed with embarrassment. She hadn't expected Li Lanqiu to so openly reveal the inside story. Didn't she say she wouldn't tell anyone about this Now that she had, how would others view her Li Yiping felt incredibly awkward inside, but she didn't think too badly of Li Lanqiu either. She just thought that Li Lanqiu was under stress and so spoke bluntly.

Lin Meng and Rong Ling were speechless, thinking to themselves that the old woman was truly out of line. She could do anything! This wasn't what they called a "lady" at all!

"Look, I don't want to make things difficult for your sister and brother-in-law. Right now, I can only rely on you. Since I'm back, I'm not leaving anywhere. Even if I die, I want to die by your side!"

It's another deeply affectionate look, it would make anyone die of heartache.

A person who knows propriety and decorum should not say such things, especially you, Li Lanqiu, who has studied abroad and is a high-achiever!

With a cold face, Lin Mengxi spoke sharply.

"What you're saying makes me feel like I have nowhere to go. Li Yiping, I think it would be best if you took your cousin back with you. After all, you are her aunt. At this time, helping her is your duty. Although your mother-in-law has such a temper, I believe your husband, as a soldier, should have some courage and ability. He shouldn't be completely controlled by his mother. If he really wants to, hiding Li Lanqiu should be very easy."

Li Yiping blushed instantly, her face flushed. Just as she was about to reply with "You're right," Li Lanqiu beat her to it, speaking sharply.

"Lin Meng, do you want me dead!"

She looked at Lin Meng with some hatred in her eyes.

"I'm like this, even the most ordinary of friends couldn't just ignore me. You're just kicking me out like this That's too much!"

"That's what I meant!" Rong Lingwei frowned and immediately cut off Li Lanqiu's words. "Recently, I don't want anyone to come to the house. Mengmeng said that, she was just following my meaning!"

One's own wife is someone who must be protected.

Those people gave you three days, so you don't have to worry at all. For the next three days, you're definitely safe. If you don't want to trouble Yiping and the others, that's fine. I'll send a few capable people back to look after you. With my brothers, you'll be safe too!

"Besides you, I wouldn't go anywhere else!" Li Lanqiu gritted her teeth fiercely. "I almost lost my life just now, so I realized it and let go. Rong Ling, for the rest of my life, I'm following you!"

Róng Líng's face fell.

Li Lanqiu looked at Lin Meng again and said, "Lin Meng, no matter how you see me, I'm going with Rong!"

"Shameless!" The most dismissive word, finally came out of Lin Meng's mouth.

Li Lanqiu bit her lip and lowered her head, saying nothing.

"Rónglíng, my bottom line is that you can protect her, but, make her disappear from before me!"

"Perhaps I won't listen to you!" Li Lanqiu suddenly raised her head, widened her eyes, and looked at Lin Meng with a heaving chest, appearing quite agitated.

We have the most beautiful memories together, when we are together――

"That's enough!" Rong Ling roared, a menacing aura suddenly radiating from him. "Let's not speak of past matters anymore!"

As always, he had this way of intimidating people. At that moment, Li Yiping was so frightened her breath caught in her throat. But strangely enough, Li Lanqiu wasn't fazed at all. She paused for a moment, then started speaking rapidly again.

"Back then, you didn't even know where you were. All these years, you've been thinking of me, that's why your boss hasn't gotten married yet. Yiping told me all this. Rong, these are facts, what's there to be ashamed of!"

She bit her lip, continuing with a mix of sadness and defiance. "I had to say it, to let Lin Meng know. She's the newcomer, she needs to show respect and not be so arrogant. If I hadn't been late, you would have married me, not her!"

"Finished" Rong Ling asked coldly, his handsome face utterly icy.

Li Lanqiu sniffed, her silver teeth gritted, biting through her lip, blood trickling down her chin. It was a sight that made one feel sorry for her, but alas, it failed to stir any tenderness in Rong Ling's heart.

"I will only marry Mengmeng!"

The affirmative tone, like the majestic sound of a bell from an ancient temple on a cold mountain, powerfully resonated in their hearts. However, it was also like a ruthless sword, shattering Li Lanqiu's pathetic self-deception. Li Lanqiu's face paled and she collapsed softly. Li Yiping reached out to help her in surprise, but remembering what Li Lanqiu had said earlier—that Rong Ling always thought of her—she felt a surge of anger and retracted her hand.

Li Lanqiu's words were putting her in an unfair position, especially with Rong Ling and Lin Meng present. The fact that the He family was at odds with Rong Ling didn't mean she wanted to be at odds with him. She wasn't someone who disregarded propriety and ethics. Rong Ling had helped her a lot in the past, and she always thought he was a good person. Although these days, because of certain reasons, her fondness for him had diminished somewhat, at its core, she still held some goodwill towards him. If Rong Ling ever needed help, within her capabilities, she would definitely offer it. She never imagined that she would completely fall out with him.

But once Li Lanqiu said those words, she couldn't imagine having any more interaction with Rong Ling. She estimated that Lin Meng must hate her now, and looking at Rong Ling's expression, he seemed to value Lin Meng very much. Now that Lin Meng is upset, Rong Ling could be even more in love with her! Li Lanqiu had simply poured dirty water on her.

Li Yiping wanted to leave and didn't want to deal with this messy business anymore. Seeing Rong Ling's cold anger, she only threw down these words and began to order a man who looked to be about fifty years old standing beside her to pick seven or eight people to escort Li Lanqiu away. She was truly relieved in her heart.

She's not going to get involved in this mess her cousin has gotten herself into. She'll only have her husband get involved if her cousin directly asks for his help.

Li Lanqiu instantly exploded, she didn't expect that in Rong Lingxin's heart, she was so insignificant. She had just escaped a dangerous situation!

Okay, he's ruthless!

Then she's even crueler than him!

“You know, sending me out like this is practically a death sentence!” Li Lanqiu slowly sat up, her voice laced with anger and hurt. She looked at Rong Ling with immense pain in her eyes. “Those people look so menacing, capable of anything. And you know very well that within three days, I have no way to recover those messed-up memories. You just abandon me like this, Rong Ling How cold-hearted can you be!”

Suddenly, two more tears fell. But she smiled strangely, a smile that was incredibly bright. She was already stunningly beautiful, and like this, her appearance was truly heart-wrenching!

"Do you remember, back then, you always liked to lie on the ground listening to me play the piano. You would lie there, humming softly in your mouth, and later, you fell silent and fell asleep. Back then, it was so beautiful, I still remember it, Rong, how much do you remember!"

Rong Ling's face was expressionless.

Li Lanqiu continued to chuckle. "Once, you jumped in through the window covered in blood. You looked so frightening! I wanted to check your wounds, but you wouldn't let me. You insisted I play the piano for you, saying that listening to my music would make you feel better. Do you remember"

Rong Ling's eyelids twitched slightly.

"At the time, I was playing while also worrying about you, keeping an eye on your every move. You criticized me harshly, saying I wasn't focused, so I could only cry and force myself to keep playing. Later, finally, I finished that piece. When I called out to you, you lay motionless on the floor, scaring me half to death. I thought you were dead. I cried and threw myself on top of you, acting like a madman, feeling like the sky was falling. But later I found out you were fine. At that moment, I said to myself, 'From now on, I must die in front of you so that I won't be scared by you again.' Rong Ling, do you remember all this!"

Rong Ling remained silent, his merciless lips pressed together, thin and taut like a sword, sharp enough to pierce the heart.

Li Lanqiu laughed again, tears streaming down her face. It was a comical and exaggerated display.

“It seems you’ve forgotten. But I remember, and I’ve always remembered. Since we’re going to die anyway, might as well…” She gritted her teeth again, her eyes flashing with determination. “Die in front of you. Die beside you!”

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly lunged forward and dove towards the surgical box on the side.

Rong Ling's brow jumped, and he roared, "Stop her!"hem both, recognizing their high status and understanding that they were the ones truly making decisions for this group of people. It was hard to imagine a five-year-old child being able to say someth...
