Chapter 279 – Chasing After Lin Qiang

"Yes, Master."

"It's said that Lin Qiang is heading towards the outskirt where there are barely any people around." Feng Ao Kuai was also taking a horse. "There might be another path that lead outside the city from there."

"Outskirt?" Nan Luo furrowed his eyebrows. "It's quite far from here."

"It'll take her some time to reach the outskirt. There might be other people who are helping her. Luo, you stay here to take precaution."

"Eh, why?"

"Ao Si will stay behind and help you."

Feng Ao Si, who was planning to take the horse, stayed silent when he heard the instruction. He was thinking that he would be able to go and help his grandfather out. Why did it end up with him having to stay behind?

"Hua'er, dress in Luo's clothes." Old Master Nan noticed that Nan Hua had already changed her clothes. It seemed that she had already guessed that she would only be able to go if she was not dressed as a woman.

He felt that his grandchildren were all very wild.

Nan Luo looked at Nan Hua then sighed in resignation. If his sister wanted to see, the safest option was for her to become him. He could only nod and agree with this arrangement for him to stay behind.

He glanced at Feng Ao Si. "Brother Si, you have to be my hands and legs, alright?"

Feng Ao Si: "…" I really don't want to.

Nan Hua hopped on top of the horse easily. She pulled the rein as she tried her best to adjust her condition. Saying that she was proficient in riding horse would be a lie, but she would be able to do this.

"Let's go!"

Drap! Drap! Drap!

Old Master Nan led them along with several soldiers to follow the road towards the outskirt of the city.

Nan Hua looked at the familiar road as she felt that they were heading towards the area where her ninth senior was staying. At the same time, she could faintly sense the surrounding people who were hiding in the darkness.

'There are a lot of people in Wind City.'

She didn't say anything, though.

There might be people from different parties. Right now, she didn't have the strength nor time to care about them. The most important thing for her right now was to chase after Lin Qiang.

*neigh*

"Kyaaa!"

The sound of screams from a distance attracted their attention.

Nan Hua could faintly see a young woman who was struggling to walk while dragging two children behind her, each in her arms. The two children were struggling and sounded as if they were crying but Lin Qiang didn't stop.

Not far from them, Feng Qian Bo and Feng Qian Shao had managed to catch up along with some of their soldiers.

"Lin Qiang!" Feng Qian Bo called out.

Lin Qiang still wanted to continue walking, but she noticed that Old Master Nan and the others were closing in from different direction. She was already trapped. Her sudden decision of running away ended up in a complete failure.

She turned her head and saw Feng Qian Bo was looking in her direction with disbelief. Tears streamed out on the corner of her eyes.

"What are you doing here?" Lin Qiang asked while sobbing.

"Lin Qiang, let's go back." Feng Qian Bo looked at his wife, feeling that he no longer knew her. After having her background found out, Lin Qiang was no longer the same woman as the one he knew for years.

Since when she made her decision so irrationally?

Even though Lin Qiang was often in worse position compared to his main wife, Lin Qiang would always act confident and sure of herself. It was totally different from how Lin Qiang in front of him would act.

"No… I can't go back." Lin Qiang shook her head.

"Mom… I'm tired," Feng Mo Yue was also crying buckets. She was feeling cold and hungry but her mother dragged her out here.

Holding Lin Qiang's other hand, Feng Mo Xing was not in any better condition. He thought that he could finally rest after a long day, but his mother suddenly asked him to come with her out here. It was cold.

He didn't like it here.

"Lin Qiang! Look at the children!" Feng Qian Bo was helpless.

Lin Qiang looked at her children then at Feng Qian Bo. She cried again. "I can't go back, Qian Bo. Please don't ask me to return with you."

"Why? Even if you're from Zhang Xu Kingdom, I don't mind!" Feng Qian Bo was originally planning on hiding this matter and only let his brother and those who were involved to know. But Lin Qiang behaved strangely, making it impossible for him to not leak out this matter.

"It's not that." Lin Qiang felt like screaming. She was looking at her husband as tears continued to fall down from her eyes. "You don't understand."

"Yes, I don't understand because you don't tell me anything!" Feng Qian Bo was frustrated. Lin Qiang only told him that she was indeed from Lin Family and that the Lin Family was powerful. But how powerful they were and what they asked her to do was not included in what Lin Qiang told him.

He felt extremely frustrated.

"If there's anything, you can just tell me, Lin Qiang!"

If she continued to stay silent and buried whatever what was inside her mind, he would never be able to know what she wanted. He wanted to help her but the perquisite of that was that she allowed him to help her.

Not like this.

Lin Qiang looked at her husband as she shook her head. "I can't."

"Why? Why can't you tell me? Just tell me what's in your mind!" Feng Qian Bo yelled. Right now, blood was surely rushing in his head as he couldn't think clearly.

However, Lin Qiang merely looked at her two children. Her smile was ugly as she cried buckets. In the next second, she pulled out her hairpins and stabbed her own son.

Stab!
