Ma Chongshan knew Li Xiaoran.
After all, the Seventh Prince’s consort suddenly became very close to the person he loved, so Ma Chongshan had to investigate.
It was precisely because he had investigated Li Xiaoran that Ma Chongshan felt very nervous.
Li Xiaoran seemed to be assessing and evaluating him, as if she could see through Ma Chongshan’s thoughts at a glance.
At this moment, Ma Chongshan was a little anxious. If the Seventh Prince’s consort said something bad about him, would Meng Yan despise him and dump him?
At the thought of this possibility, Ma Chongshan became even more anxious and he looked at Meng Yan for help.
Meng Yan only smiled and ignored the distress signal sent by her man.
Li Xiaoran naturally sensed Ma Chongshan’s emotions clearly.
Ma Chongshan cared about Meng Yan from the bottom of his heart. He wasn’t an irresponsible playboy.
“You have good taste in men!”
As soon as she said this, Ma Chongshan, who was already sweating, finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Meng Yan laughed when she saw how nervous Ma Chongshan was.
“You’re not bad. You obtained my friend’s approval!”
With that, Meng Yan introduced him to Li Xiaoran. “This is Ma Chongshan, my future husband! We’ll get married soon! Li Xiaoran, as my good friend, you have to come to the wedding!”
Li Xiaoran shook her head and said, “My husband already has a fief, so we’re leaving after the Empress Dowager’s birthday! I probably won’t be able to see you two get married! But it doesn’t matter. Even if I can’t see you two get married, I’ll send a gift to you!”
Meng Yan was a little disappointed when she heard Li Xiaoran’s words.
She had forgotten that Li Xiaoran and the Seventh Prince still had to leave the capital.
At the thought of this, Meng Yan was a little unhappy.
“It wasn’t easy for me to have a new friend. Why are you leaving so soon?!
Sichuan is so far from the capital, so it’ll be difficult for me to see you in the future!”
When Ma Chongshan heard his beloved’s words, he quickly said, “It’s not difficult! I’ve always wanted to visit Sichuan. After we get married, we can go take a look together! The country is so big, so we should take a look around and instead of staying in the capital all the time. We should travel more!” Meng Yan’s eyes lit up when she heard Ma Chongshan’s words.
“Alright! You promised me! If you can’t do it, I’ll go travel alone! Also, let me make it clear to you first. Even if I marry you, I won’t accept anyone’s interference with my life. How I lived in the past is how I’ll live in the future!”
When Ma Chongshan heard this, he quickly nodded and said, “Don’t worry, it’s not like you don’t know my family’s situation! Leave the matter of bringing glory to our family to my brother. I’m not the oldest, so there’s no need to expect me to carry the burden of the family. After we get married, we’ll live our own lives. Although I’m not as good at running a business as you, the businesses in my hands were all started by me, so there are no business disputes. However, I don’t care if my parents give me their assets or not. I’ll take them if they give them to me, but if they don’t give them to me, so be it. I have to make this clear to you first!”
Meng Yan admired men like him, so she nodded.
“Don’t worry, if you coveted your parents’ assets, I would have looked down on you! A good man should be indomitable. You have to fight for what you want with your own hands!”
When Ma Chongshan heard Meng Yan’s words, he smiled happily.
He didn’t misjudge. Meng Yan was the person who understood him the most in the world.
Seeing that the two of them had decided on the rest of their lives in a few words, Li Xiaoran sincerely wished them well.
Duan Sha was very envious!
She was envious that Meng Yan could make her own decisions and do whatever she wanted.
In the residence, Luo Cheng felt a little flustered for some reason.
Thinking of how Li Xiaoran was still attending the banquet, Luo Cheng could no longer sit still, so he simply led his men towards the farmstead.
Before arriving at the farmstead, Luo Cheng saw many people running out in a panic from afar.
At the entrance of the farmstead, countless people rushed towards the door in a frenzy.
They could even hear a lot of screams from farther away.
Luo Cheng wanted to rush into the farmstead, but there were too many people around, so it was impossible to rush in.
Li Xiaoran and the others, who Luo Cheng was worried about, were hiding in a
rockery.
The Eldest Princess, Princess Ning Xin, Shu Ruyue, Duan Sha, Meng Yan, and Ma Chongshan were all hiding with Li Xiaoran.
Not long ago, while everyone was still in shock from the murder, many crazy people rushed out from somewhere.
They attacked and killed anyone they saw. For a moment, the entire venue became like a living hell.
Li Xiaoran was the first to notice that something was wrong. Sensing those violent emotions, Li Xiaoran brought the people on the big rock and planned to escape from the farmstead.
Because they were walking in a different direction from the majority, the journey was smooth.
On the way, they happened to meet the Eldest Princess and Princess Ning Xin.
After the Eldest Princess saw Li Xiaoran, she changed her mind. Instead of following the route she had planned, she followed Li Xiaoran towards a different direction.
As it turned out, following Li Xiaoran was the best decision.
Although they were currently trapped in the rockery, fortunately, they were all safe.
“Do you see that? Climb up from the far left side of the rockery. There’s a big tree not far away. We have to think of a way to get some sturdy ropes. Then, tie one end of the rope to the rockery and let Ruyue jump onto the big tree to tie it up. After that, we’ll use the rope and our weight to slide towards the big tree. Now, we need two things. One is a sturdy rope, and the other is a thick wooden stick,” Li Xiaoran lowered her voice as she said.
The Eldest Princess quickly understood what Li Xiaoran meant. Although she didn’t know what the wooden stick was for, she felt that it was a good idea.
The other places were filled with people who had lost their minds, so if they wanted to leave the farmstead, they could only find another way.
At this moment, Wei Li said, “I have several ropes here. They are all sturdy and durable! ”
“There aren’t any wooden sticks. Are wooden boards okay? Look, there are several wooden boards not far away!” Shu Ruyue had good eyesight and she saw several wooden boards on a rockery not far ahead at a glance!
“We have to see if the wooden board is sturdy. I need a strong wooden board!” Li Xiaoran said.
