Chapter 225 - 225 For What?
Li Xiaoran relaxed and felt a burst of joy.
However, after a while, Li Xiaoran’s expression changed.
This was because she sensed a lot of emotions again. One person was actually approaching their home.
Li Xiaoran quickly put on her clothes, pants, and shoes and rushed to Luo Cheng.
At this moment, Luo Ziyang had just fed Luo Cheng a bowl of medicine, and he was a little surprised to see Li Xiaoran rush in.
“What’s wrong, Sister-in-law?”
Luo Cheng also looked at Li Xiaoran. Seeing that her expression was off, he asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Someone is nearby. He’s probably one of the people we met when we were looking for you. He’s approaching our house and he’ll probably be here soon.” Li Xiaoran quickly told him what she had sensed.
Luo Cheng immediately understood.
“It seems that those people are really persistent! They can’t find me, so they want to come to my house to confirm it!”
Luo Ziyang also understood what Li Xiaoran meant and put down the medicine bowl.
“Leave it to me, Brother!” Luo Ziyang said.
“Alright, open all the array formations and mechanisms! Since the other party wants to come so badly, let’s keep them here!” Luo Cheng nodded.
Li Xiaoran was a little stunned when she heard their conversation.
“Wife, come over here! Don’t worry! Nothing will happen! There’s a reason I always ask you guys to stay at home. This house is specially designed. Once someone attacks, I can activate the defense mechanism. As long as we don’t leave, nothing will happen!” Luo Cheng waved at Li Xiaoran and explained.
Li Xiaoran was skeptical, but could only suppress her anxiety as she came to Luo Cheng’s side.
Luo Cheng was still very weak, so he was leaning on a few blankets.
The blanket that Luo Cheng had been wrapped in previously was already hung up in the house by Luo Ziyang to dry.
When the approaching person arrived outside the Luo family’s house, he looked inside.
The person didn’t dare to barge in because he had been here several times.
He had never broken in before and always got injured outside.
This time, he changed his strategy. He walked around the house and then went to a big tree not far away.
Li Xiaoran naturally sensed the other party’s emotions and looked out of the window.
However, the other party only stayed for a while before leaving quietly.
It turned out that there were also some mechanisms installed on that tree.
At this moment, Luo Ziyang opened the mechanism. A sharp spike suddenly appeared on the tree and pierced into the man’s back.
The person could only cover his wound and jump off the tree quickly.
After that, the people in the distance left as well and didn’t approach again.
After Li Xiaoran confirmed that those people had left, she relaxed.
“Someone was injured, then a group of people left!” Li Xiaoran retracted her gaze and said, “Husband, can I ask why people keep coming to assassinate you?”
Once in town, once outside the house last time, and today was the third time!
When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he smiled and asked, “Why? Are you afraid? Are you worried that your family will be implicated by me?”
“What are you thinking?! If my parents were really afraid of being implicated by you, they would have said it long ago. Look, when you were injured these few times, my parents never asked anything. They just wanted to treat your wound and help you!” Li Xiaoran shook her head and said calmly.
“I didn’t ask these questions to probe into your secrets. I just feel that these people come too often, and their target is you every time. Why?” Li Xiaoran asked her doubts.
Luo Cheng actually knew that Li Xiaoran wasn’t afraid of being implicated, so he said that jokingly.
When he heard Li Xiaoran’s explanation, the smile on his face disappeared and his expression became serious.
“It’s a long story! This has to do with my background! There are some things that I can’t explain to you now, because it will take a lot of time to explain. I’m not in good spirits now, and I’m afraid I’ll fall asleep again before I can finish talking! Don’t worry for the time being. After I recover, I’ll find a suitable time to tell you everything!”
“I don’t need to know everything. I just need to know if the other party is dead set on getting rid of you. Will they hurt other people in the process? If they target my parents, at least we have to be on guard!” Li Xiaoran thought of something and said.
“Don’t worry! Someone will come after the new year to protect your family. But to be honest, the other party won’t do anything to your family for the time being!” Luo Cheng thought for a moment and said.
“What do you mean for the time being? Will they attack my family in the future?” Li Xiaoran frowned and said.
Luo Cheng looked at Li Xiaoran and said.
“Do you remember the people who captured Li Yan?”
Li Xiaoran nodded.
“The other party thought that I cared about Li Yan very much, so they wanted to use Li Yan to threaten me. It’s just that the other party miscalculated! If those people find out how important you are to me in the future, they will naturally attack you and your family!” Luo Cheng didn’t hide anything and told her about the possible danger.
At this moment, Li Xiaoran immediately thought of something.
“So, although we have the marriage contract, in order to protect me, you didn’t officially marry me?”
Luo Cheng nodded.
“Then why did you change your mind later?” Li Xiaoran asked again.
Luo Cheng looked at Li Xiaoran and said, “Because I care about you!”
This simple sentence explained Luo Cheng’s reason for doing so.
“Wife, are you willing to share happiness and hardship with me??” Luo Cheng suddenly asked.
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she suddenly laughed.
“From the beginning, we agreed to stick together! I said that if you don’t abandon me, I won’t leave you! Therefore, husband, no matter how our relationship changes, from the moment I found you and from the moment you promised to bring me away from the Li family, we have been tied together! If you live, I live! If you die, I die! It’s that simple!”
...
Luo Cheng didn’t expect Li Xiaoran to say such a thing. After being stunned for a moment, he also laughed.
“Wife, you’re really different from others! Why does this life-or-death ordeal sound so simple in your mouth?!”
