Xi Ling stepped inside the garden with his short legs. His eyes were filled with anger as he looked at Gu Li.
"Go to your room, Xiao Ling."
Li Rui said strictly and Xi Ling paused amidst his steps. This was the first time his mother has talked to him like this.
However, after hearing Gu Li's words, he would not leave regardless of how much his mother will scold him later.
The man wanted to harm his mother and sibling so how could he leave! It was his duty to protect his mother and sibling.
That was what his father had taught him.
Putting both of his hands on his waist, Xi Ling stood in front of his mother and glared at Gu Li. His small frame didn't do much to cover Li Rui from Gu Li's attacks if the latter wanted to attack Li Rui.
Li Rui immediately held his arm and tried to pull him behind but Xi Ling struggled.
"Mother…No!"
For the first time, Li Rui felt very angry at Xi Ling for not hearing her obediently. At the same time, she was scared not for her life but for her son's life.
He should not have been here in the first place.
The three shadow guards looked at this scene with cold and indifferent eyes. It was not the first time they were seeing such a scene.
Even when they have killed before, they had seen the loved ones of the person who they were assigned to kill cry like this.
But they still did it.
It was their job…something they have chosen and it was not like the people they have killed were saints.
Even this Li Rui was no saint. In this small tike, Youxio had already investigated Li Rui and had heard her great deeds from the people of the Imperial City.
She might be a good mother to her son that... she only became recently according to those rumors but she was not a good human being so they won't be doing anything wrong by killing her!
And this job would give them a huge amount of money that they needed very much.
That's what they thought inside their hearts.
"Xiao Ling, leave from here."
Li Rui said strictly as she signed Liu Lan who looked scared to step forward and take away Xii Ling.
However, Xi Ling shook his head vigorously and said firmly
"Xiao Ling will not leave Mother and his brother or sister alone."
The small bun's eyes were filled with tears as he saw his mother's strict face while she pushed him in Liu Lan's direction who looked ready to take him away.
"Would Mother have left Xiao Ling alone if Xiao Ling was in the same situation?"
Her son's tears surely melted Li Rui's heart but she knew that she could not get weak at this moment so she composed her expression very well and said to Gu Li.
"Let my son go from here. Whatever you want...only I can give you. My son is not needed here."
Li Rui said calmly making Gu Li wonder how she could behave so calmly standing in front of the death.
The unaware Gu Li never knew that Li Rui could behave so calmly because she had already dealt with the same kind of situation in her life countless times now.
However, whatever he thought inside his heart, he knew that he couldn't let Xi Ling go away…at least not until his master said otherwise.
Just when Gu Li was about to deny Li Rui's request, he heard a loud 'swish' and the next moment, one after the other, two figures appeared inside the garden.
"My Lady."
An Ju who was being followed by the fourth shadow guard first looked at Li Rui and she sighed in relief seeing that Li Rui was unharmed.
Her face had a somber expression when she realized that even Xi Ling was there.
On the other hand, the leader of the Youxio's organization looked at Li Rui but his body froze slightly when he saw her slightly protruding stomach.
His fists clenched slightly as he wondered what he should do.
Killing a pregnant woman…that was not what he wanted to do. But they really needed money.
With his lips pressed in a thin line behind that black-colored mask that covered his face completely, the leader of Youxio tried to sort out this conflict inside his mind.
On the other hand, the three shadow guards also noticed their master's conflict and silently waited for their master's order.
Li Rui noticed their lack of attention and she immediately looked at An Ju.
Her calm black eyes first stared at An Ju who was also looking at her and then she looked at Xi Ling.
An Ju understood what she was trying to indicate. She wanted her to take Xi Ling away from here. An Ju would have done this but she didn't want to leave Li Rui here alone.
Li Rui seemed to understand what she was thinking so she moved her right hand a little letting An Ju have a small peak at the dagger in her hands.
After that, she blinked her eyes in assurance as if she was trying to tell her that she would be alright on her own.
An Ju looked very serious. It was a risky decision but she thought that taking Xi Ling away from here first would be the right decision.
At least then she would have to save just Li Rui from coming back after keeping Xi Ling in a safe place. And Liu Lan and Li Hua were also there.
It was very difficult for her to take such a decision.
After all, there were a total of shadow guards in the garden, and Liu Lan and Li Hua didn't possess any skill that could make them capable enough to fight with even a single one of them.
However, she knew that she didn't have any time so having a firm mind the next moment, her body flew taking Xi Ling away with her towards the sky while the four shadow guards also came out of their trance.
"This kid is too chaotic."
The leader smiled behind his mask as he looked at Gu Li indicating him to follow An Ju.
But before Gu Li could fly away from there, Li Rui attacked him with the dagger.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Xi Ling stepped inside the garden with his short legs. His eyes were filled with anger as he looked at Gu Li.
