Chapter 36 The Vulnerable

Chapter 36 Fragile People

Meng Xiyin came back from private school with a small yellow satchel on her back. Along the way, she heard all about the county soldiers leaving the city this morning to drive away bandits in Baibei Mountain. She wondered if Meng Heyin had returned safely, and she felt like returning home.

As soon as I walked to the door of Meng's Mansion, I saw a circle of officers and soldiers guarding Meng's Mansion. At this time, there was even a group of patrolling officers and soldiers coming out of the alley behind.

Meng Xiyin took a breath of cold air and carefully moved to the side to see what was going on.

At this moment, Mother Xu and her daughter suddenly appeared from behind and asked diligently: "Second Miss! What are you doing here?"

Incompetent bungler!

Just as Meng Xiyin glared at Nanny Xu as if admonishing, she saw the patrolling officers and soldiers coming in front of her.

"The Meng family?"

Meng Xiyin shook her head quickly, but Nanny Xu and her daughter next to her nodded indifferently.

The officers and soldiers glanced at Meng Xiyin insightfully and asked Nanny Xu: "Who is she?"

Meng Xiyin quickly answered: "I am Miss Meng's friend! I came to play with Miss Meng. Since it is inconvenient, I will leave!"

After saying that, Meng Xiyin was ready to run away. Who knew that someone grabbed her by the collar before she even took a step.

The officers and soldiers didn't even look at her, and just said "hmm" to Aunt Xu. Aunt Xu also noticed that something was wrong, but she wanted to change her words, but she saw Xu Yuan was so frightened that she was trembling.

"She is the second young lady of the Meng family!"

Meng Xiyin's eyes almost popped out of her head, and Xu Yuan lowered her head in fear.

"As expected of the Meng family, no one is honest!"

The officers and soldiers stared at Meng Xiyin coldly, grabbed her collar and dragged her towards the door. Aunt Xu and her daughter followed behind.

Meng Xiyin was thrown into the gate without mercy by the officer, but in a moment, the gate was closed again.

When they heard the noise, Mr. Meng and Mrs. Meng came out to check. When they saw Meng Xiyin being thrown in, they quickly stepped forward and hugged her to check: "Xiyin! Are you okay?"

Meng Xiyin tugged on her collar and asked instead of answering: "Father, mother, what's going on? Why are we being imprisoned?"

Speaking of this, the Meng and his wife reacted surprisingly unanimously: "Bastard Xue Jing, you delayed us from rescuing your sister!"

"What should we do if something happens to Heyin? Wuwuwu..."

Meng Xiyin saw Mrs. Meng crying and wondered: Haven't you always hated Meng Heyin? Shouldn't she be happy that she was caught? Why are you crying?

Meng Xiyin wanted to ask, but after seeing Mr. Meng's dark expression on the side, she still thought it would be better not to say anything.

Of course, in order to show her concern for this sister, Meng Xiyin still asked: "What about the eldest sister? When can she come back?"

Mr. Meng and Mrs. Meng instantly became melancholy. Meng Heyin had been alone outside for so long. If something happened... Even if nothing happened, if they came back after so long, their daughter's family's reputation would have been completely wiped out.

.

When Meng Xiyin saw her parents' faces, she felt unexplainably complicated in her heart, and secretly prayed that Meng Heyin would be okay.

Mother and daughter Xu, who were thrown in together but ignored by others: Okay, okay, it’s better if you don’t come back!

Just when the Meng family were all under house arrest, a fast horse knocked on the city gate and galloped towards the official road.

When Ming Rong returned to their small room, she saw Meng Heyin playing with something. She raised her eyebrows and asked, "What bad thing are you planning to do again?"

Meng Heyin was not in the mood to argue with him, so he put away the things on the table and lay down in a daze.

These days, apart from meditating and resting, she also goes out to cause trouble, as if she has endless energy. She has never been lying on the table doing nothing like this.

Ming Rong was a little unaccustomed, so she sat down on the other side of the table and asked, "What's wrong with being so lethargic?"

Even he himself was not aware of the concern in his words.

Meng Heyin didn't know what was wrong with her. She kept replaying the words Ji Qiao told her in her mind. Although she had not experienced it personally, the experiences of the past ten years were all shown in front of her one by one, with a sense of excitement.

The heavy musty smell was accompanied by a lot of blood.

When it comes to cruel things, Meng Heyin has seen a lot. In her last life, the entire continent was covered in gunpowder smoke, and the ground was covered with red flesh and white bones and corpses, but she had never turned a sideways eye, but now things have become a little different.

Meng Heyin attributed this to the fragility of this body.

"Frail people cannot survive in troubled times." Meng Heyin said a sentence without thinking.

"That's natural." Mingrong smiled and said, "Then you think today is a troubled time?"

Meng Heyin's heart trembled, and he looked at Mingrong unexpectedly and hesitantly. His expression was sincere, and his eyes shone with tiny light, as if he really wanted to have a heart-to-heart with him.

Meng Heyin avoided his gaze and said perfunctorily: "Maybe."

Her reaction was not normal, and Mingrong's attitude became a little more serious, a little joking, a little tentative: "Are you so abnormal, do you want to protect those who you call vulnerable?"

Meng Heyin's heart trembled violently again, and the inexplicable pulling force from before seemed to reappear.

Bai Zhuzi also felt the vibration in Meng Heyin's heart, and quickly advised: "Master, you are in danger!"

Meng Heyin suppressed the fluctuations in his heart and said as calmly as possible: "How is it possible? No one hates the weak more than me. They don't want to make progress and are only worthy of being the prey of the strong."

Meng Heyin answered briskly, but Mingrong felt a chill in her heart.

Meng Heyin actually has such a view. Combined with her previous actions and her special identity as a resurrected soul, Mingrong is almost certain that Meng Heyin is a huge threat.

Thinking of this, Ming Rong began to feel an invisible pressure when she looked at her, and Meng Heyin still raised his eyebrows provocatively.

"Then..." Mingrong suddenly grabbed Meng Heyin's neck. The ambiguous feelings just now dissipated in an instant and became tense, "You are a weak person to me. I will kill you now to avoid future troubles...

"

Meng Heyin knew that he was afraid, and had long been prepared to fall apart at any time, but he was not afraid at all at this moment. In the final analysis, the pain caused by the suffocation on his neck was far less than the pain caused by the vibration in his heart at this moment.

Mingrong felt angry when she saw that Meng Heyin was obviously out of breath and her eyes were blurred, but she still gave him a mocking smile.

This woman is not weak when she should be weak, not tough when she should be strong, as if she was born to go against herself.

Ming Rong was angry in her heart. Seeing that her struggling movements were about to slow down, she suddenly loosened her hand and let her go, leaving her breathing heavily next to her.

After walking through the gate of hell for a while, the shock in his heart finally calmed down. Meng Heyin calmed down, and there were still water waves in his eyes caused by suffocation, and they were extremely full of color.

Recalling what just happened, Meng Heyin said with a smile: "Mr. Ming."

This was the first time Meng Heyin called him that, and he felt a little weird. Mingrong looked at her coldly.

"I only give you one chance to kill me. If you don't do it this time, you will never have a second chance in the future."

Mingrong scoffed disdainfully, and just as he was about to say something, he saw a magnified face in front of him. Meng Heyin suddenly came to him for some reason, his breath lingering.

Mingrong breathed heavily, maintaining a trace of rationality: "What are you doing?"

Meng Heyin stepped back again and chuckled.
