Chapter 572 Du Mingxian was forcibly taken away
Du Mingxian was prepared to be taken away at any time, and had already written a note, hoping to find an opportunity to send it out so that people outside wouldn't worry. However, Aunt Bai seemed to have calmed down, and there was no response for several days.
Tian Rong's injuries have all healed completely, and now she doesn't like to take herself out with her; she just hangs out with Mo when she gets home.
The weather was nice that day.
Someone invited Tian Rong out, and Nan'er went along. Du Mingxian sat in the courtyard sewing small clothes. Mo came out of the room and sat down next to her.
“You don’t seem worried at all. I don’t think Tian Rong can protect you,” Mo reminded her.
Du Mingxian looked at him, her eyes scrutinizing him. "What did she say to you?"
"No, she was only thinking about pleasure in bed and didn't tell me anything. But... I could tell that she'd been restless these past few days, and it was related to that Aunt Bai."
Du Mingxian didn't respond. She didn't know what to say. Although she was cooperating with Mo, she was still wary of him.
Mo didn't care about her thoughts at all, and sat down next to her quite relaxed. "I think you should make preparations as soon as possible, or just leave. Today is an opportunity. Her bodyguards have all gone out with her."
"Why are you helping me? If I leave quietly, someone as skilled as you will be punished immediately." Du Mingxian stared at him intently, trying to discern his thoughts.
But no, she couldn't tell anything about Mo's condition.
Mo scoffed, "I'm already like this, what tricks do I have to hide? Besides, she's been begging me in bed these past few days. If she's angry because you left, I can just coax her a bit more in bed."
"This is still her yard. Aren't you afraid someone will overhear you and just tell her directly?"
"What's there to be afraid of? Of course, I'm only saying these things because I'm all alone. If there were really someone around... I wouldn't dare to say anything."
Du Mingxian smiled and said nothing more.
Mo was happy to chat with her, but seeing that she didn't speak, he looked down at her belly and the little clothes in her hand and said, "If it's for the sake of the child, you should be more careful."
"okay, I get it."
Seeing that she didn't seem to care much about him, he hesitated for a moment, then got up and went into the room.
Du Mingxian had been sitting outside for a short while when she heard voices outside. Then she saw Madam Tian walk in with an imposing old man.
She hurriedly put her things aside, stepped forward, and curtsied, "Madam."
Madam Tian waved her hand dismissively when she saw Du Mingxian, "Send someone to fetch Miss Du immediately and tell her that an important guest has come to our house."
"Yes."
Just as Du Mingxian was about to leave, the old man who had followed Madam Tian in spoke up, "Stop."
Du Mingxian didn't stop and continued walking out. She could sense that there was something about the old man that made people uncomfortable.
"Hey, you pregnant maid who's walking out, I told you to stop right there." The voice was filled with displeasure.
Du Mingxian could no longer pretend she hadn't heard, so she slowly turned around, looked at the old man with a puzzled expression, and said nothing.
The old man didn't speak to Du Mingxian, but looked at Madam Tian and asked, "Is this the maidservant beside her?"
"Yes."
"Alright, I came here because of this maid. Since she's not here, I'll just take this maid with me."
Madam Tian hesitated, "You've come all this way, why don't you wait for the maid and meet with her?"
"No need. Tell her to tone it down; she has important things to do."
"Yes."
The old man instructed Du Mingxian, "Come with me."
Du Mingxian didn't move. Madam Tian sighed and stepped forward, saying, "This is Miss's grandfather. You go with him first. I will talk to Miss about this."
"But I haven't said goodbye to Miss yet."
"Don't forget who you are," the old man warned.
Du Mingxian simply stopped pretending, took a few steps forward to pick up the little garment she had just made, went into the room to tidy up her things, and when she came out, the old man was standing to the side waiting for her.
The old man was pleased to see her come out. "Let's go."
Du Mingxian followed closely behind the old man. When they got outside, there was only one carriage.
The old man went up first. Du Mingxian, a heavily pregnant woman, was about to get into the carriage when the old man said with some disdain, "Get down."
Du Mingxian remained silent, stepped back, and stood to the side without moving.
If it weren't for the baby in her belly, we couldn't just let her go there alone, could we?
Madam Tian immediately stepped forward and said, "I will have someone prepare a carriage for this girl right away."
"ASAP."
"Yes."
Du Mingxian stood at the door waiting. Her eyes swept around casually and she saw... Chunfeng in the shadows. She immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, they guarded it tightly, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to send the message out even if I left the Tian family.
When the carriage arrived, Du Mingxian got in. Madam Tian was quite considerate and had made sure the carriage was well-padded.
As the carriage started moving, Du Mingxian felt a bit of a bump, so she quickly took out another quilt from her spatial storage to put on it. The carriage was fine in the city, but its speed immediately increased after leaving the city.
As her pregnancy progressed, Du Mingxian could no longer withstand such a bumpy ride. Feeling she couldn't take it anymore, she quickly pulled the blankets up and shouted, "Stop the car! Stop the car!"
The driver was arranged by Madam Tian. As soon as Du Mingxian called out, he stopped. The carriage in front also stopped when it heard the commotion behind it.
"The carriage is going too fast. My stomach is upset. It can't go this fast; my body can't take it."
The coachman was a good man. He quickly went up to tell the people in the carriage ahead and returned soon. After getting into the carriage, the speed slowed down. Du Mingxian took out a quilt, and then she felt a little better.
She quickly took out the pregnancy-preserving medicine that Ling Silang had prepared for her and took one pill.
The carriage moved slowly forward. Du Mingxian looked at the curtains on both sides of the carriage and quietly lifted them a little. She did not sense any experts around her, so she felt relieved.
The pace is slow; Spring Breeze should be just behind. Let's walk a little further and find an opportunity to leave a message for Spring Breeze.
After traveling for about half an hour, Du Mingxian called out that she needed to relieve herself. The coachman stopped the carriage, and the carriage in front also stopped.
When Du Mingxian got off the carriage, the old man also got off the carriage.
Du Mingxian immediately walked into the woods by the roadside, and the old man shouted after her, "Don't try anything funny, or you'll die a horrible death."
"understood."
Du Mingxian walked into the woods and relieved herself. She sensed people around her, but she wasn't sure of their location. For a moment, she couldn't tell if they were enemies or her own people.
She pretended to relieve herself and heard a slight movement, as if someone was turning around.
Her heart sank; the person lurking in the shadows must be an enemy agent.
Ignoring any shyness, after relieving herself, she quietly placed the note she had prepared beforehand under the grass, then got up and left.
