C534 Dispelling Their Doubts(2)
And today, he barely made it back from the forbidden area. In order to save Lan Xuehan and break the formation, he had lost half of his life.
Naturally, he couldn't block Dongfang Jin's attack now.
In a quarter of an hour, he spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was pale, and he could not help but kneel down on one knee.
However, Dongfang Jin didn't have any intention of stopping. His figure was as fast as a gust of wind as he rushed towards Xiao Mingyu.
At this moment, Lan Lijue who had been watching for a long time had also made his move. His unfathomable and majestic strength had stopped Dongfang Jin's killing intent, causing his blood and Qi to surge.
Instantly, his doubts about Xiao Mingyu dissipated.
If Dongfang Jin's attack landed, Xiao Mingyu would die for sure!
If it was really a friend, Dongfang Jin would not have made such a ruthless move. Lan Xuehan would not sit idly by and let Dongfang Jin kill Xiao Mingyu.
After all, he understood Lan Xuehan's character!
Being stopped from attacking, Dongfang Jin's expression was not very good as he asked, "What does Patriarch Lan mean by this? If he had the courage to hurt this Crown Prince's Crown Princess, he must have the courage to bear the fury of this Crown Prince.
Furthermore, Lan Xuehan was the heir to the Lan family, and he was just a young master living under someone else's roof. Could it be that Patriarch Lan is going to disregard his heir for the sake of an outsider?"
This was a huge accusation. Although he really wanted to get rid of Lan Xuehan, he could not put it on the surface.
Furthermore, there are still disciples of the Lan family present. If I admit it, it will definitely cause chaos in the Lan family.
Dongfang Jin was really as direct as always!
Lan Lijue's eyes were cold, but there was a gentle smile on his face. "Your Highness, you are wrong. Xuehan is the heir to the Lan family. But Mingyu is also a child that I have looked after since I was a child. Both of them have the same weight in my heart. There is no distinction between them, so I have no intention of favoring you. "
After saying that, he glanced at Lan Xuehan and continued, "I know Mingyu very well. He would never do something that would harm the interests of Lan family. The murder that Xuehan spoke of might have something fishy about it. It's not too late to make a decision after investigating! "
Xiao Mingyu recovered from his shock. His face was pale, but he was calm and elegant. There was not a trace of panic on his face, as if he was not worried about his own life.
He tried his best to stand up with the help of the servants. His body was tall and handsome, and his back was straight and straight. He had a calm, decisive, and fearless imposing manner.
"Ha! Prince Xu is really decisive in killing! This young master's life is almost in your hands. However, some people's skills were inferior to others, and their lives were hanging by a thread, so what difference did they have with others? Even if Prince Xu wants to vent his anger, he shouldn't have come looking for this young master!"
His indifferent tone contained undisguised ridicule, and the coldness that overflowed from it revealed his fury.
Dongfang Jin, on the other hand, gave a clear and shallow smile, and it carried an endless chill.
"Take it out? Today, I have become a devil for her, and I will start a massacre. What are you going to do about it?"
Such a domineering and arrogant sentence, yet no one dared to question it!
A strange look flashed across Xiao Mingyu's eyes, and it was followed by ice.
"Since that's the case, then this young master will accompany you to the end!"
Although Lan Lijue was so angry that his face turned ashen, he still endured it. He eased up a little and said, "Prince Xu, there must be some misunderstanding in this matter. Why don't we do this now? Xuehan just came out of the forbidden area. You should bring her back to recuperate as soon as possible.
When they have recovered, it will not be too late for us to investigate this matter. Xuehan, what do you think?"
Knowing that Dongfang Jin only listened to Lan Xuehan, Lan Lijue immediately shifted his attention to Lan Xuehan.
Lan Xuehan knew when to stop. Dongfang Jin's ruthlessness had dispelled the doubt in Lan Lijue's heart.
If he continued to press on, he was afraid that no one would be able to get away with it.
Hence, Lan Xuehan very smoothly opened her mouth and said, "Dongfang Jin, this matter should be investigated thoroughly first!"
Dongfang Jin did not respond, but he still turned around and picked Lan Xuehan up from the waist. When he walked past Lan Lijue, Dongfang Jin coldly said, "Patriarch Lan, please give me an explanation!"
After saying that, he left with Lan Xuehan.
Lan Lijue looked at their departing figures with a gloomy expression.
At this moment, Lan Feng's cry of surprise also sounded, "Young Master!"
Xiao Mingyu tilted his head and fainted on the ground, unable to bear the heavy burden.
Lan Lijue was obviously paying more attention at this moment. He hurriedly sent the pharmacist to diagnose and treat Xiao Mingyu.
The news of Lan Xuehan's return had already spread. When they returned to the courtyard, a group of people rushed over. Seeing Lan Xuehan being hugged by Dongfang Jin in such a sorry state, each and every one of them looked at her worriedly.
Especially Lau Mianyue. Her beautiful little face was full of heartache, and her pair of beautiful eyes had already turned red.
"Han, how are you? Why are your injuries so serious!"
This daughter had never been by her side since she was young. Even when they met later on, it was still a distant Tsinghua University. She always had the appearance of a powerful person who was always in control.
This was the first time her injuries were so severe. How could she not be worried and sad as a mother?
Lan Xuehan could not bear to see her mother cry the most, especially when she was carrying a child now.
She hurriedly pressed Dongfang Jin's hand and wanted to force herself to jump down, but she did not expect Dongfang Jin to use a little strength in his hand. She scolded in a low voice, "Don't move!"
He was already injured so badly, yet he still did not know what to do!
In front of his parents, Dongfang Jin had always been elegant and gentle. He was modest and polite like Young Master from the aristocratic family. He rarely had such a situation where he pretended to be fierce, but was weak inside.
For a moment, Lau Mianyue and Lan Xuehan were shocked by him and froze for a moment.
Lan Muhua, on the other hand, looked at Dongfang Jin in understanding. He pulled Lau Mianyue and said gently, "It's good that you are back safely. Quickly let Jin treat Han!"
Lau Mianyue's eyes were red as she quickly made way. She wanted Dongfang Jin to carry Lan Xuehan in.
But she did not expect Dongfang Jin to say coldly at this time, "Mother, her injuries are urgently needed to be treated. You all are not here. You are currently in a weak state and it is not suitable for you to work hard. Let father accompany you back first!"
These words were reasonable and it made Lan Xuehan nod her head repeatedly, "Yes! Mother, you go back first! I am fine. It is just a little superficial wound. Don't worry. With him here, there won't be any problem."
Finally, Lau Mianyue was half-coaxed and half-carried back by Lan Muhua. Dongfang Jin also carried Lan Xuehan back to his room. The surrounding defenses became several times denser soundlessly.
Liuyun saw that Lan Xuehan was injured like this and was in such a sorry state. She had very sharp eyes and ordered people to prepare things for bathing as well as medicine for injuries and so on.
Originally she wanted to say that she was serving Crown Princess to bathe but seeing her young master's gloomy face, Liuyun swallowed her saliva and did not dare to speak in the end.
After preparing the things, she ran away like a wisp of smoke!
