I just want to live a good life

Chapter 323: Should Be Knocked Out First

Su Nuan's target was the dense forest. She ran all the way with Su Qingmo and soon entered the forest.

"Xia, Concubine Xia, I can't run anymore. Let me rest for a while."

A flock of sparrows were startled and flew away.

Su Nuan quickly stopped and asked Su Qingmo to shut up.

She was wondering how a grown man could have such poor physical strength. He was so tired after running a few steps. She never thought about leaving room for her to run. For Su Qingmo, it was already a full sprint. After running two miles, he was breathing out more than breathing in. If he didn't rest, his lungs would explode.

Su Nuan found a place with dense leaves and sheltered them, and pulled Su Qingmo inside to hide and rest.

Su Qingmo sat on the ground and panted for a long time before he could catch his breath.

"Concubine Xia, aren't you tired?"

Su Nuan was stunned by the question. She was still tired, after all, she had run so far, but she was only a little tired.

"I'm not as tired as you are. You're just too weak. I'm not saying that making money is important for you, but your health is also important. You can't just talk for the sake of making money. Look at your poor physical strength. You're not as good as a woman like me."

No man can tolerate this and must refute it.

Just then, footsteps suddenly sounded in the woods, and Su Nuan quickly covered Su Qingmo's mouth.

Half of Su Qingmo's rebuttal was muffled, and the other half turned into whimpering.

Fortunately, because Su Nuan's hearing was more sensitive than that of ordinary people, she could hear the sound even if it was far away, so the sound made by Su Qingmo was not discovered by the visitor.

But the footsteps were getting closer and closer, and finally stopped at the place where the two were hiding.

Su Nuan was so nervous that she held her breath and unconsciously used strength in her hands.

"Brother, don't stop me when I catch that bitch this time. I will make her wish she was dead."

Su Nuan recognized the voice. It was the third one among the robbers. So the big brother he was talking about must be Zhao Zong.

It was still early and I didn't expect these two people to come back early.

This is trouble!

Five against three, the other side has five people, one is injured, and the remaining dead are all masters. There are three people on our side, two of them don't know martial arts, and the one who knows martial arts seems to only be able to run away.

The advantages and disadvantages are clear at a glance.

If we were caught, the consequences would be disastrous.

A fine layer of cold sweat broke out on Su Nuan's forehead.

Then Zhao Zong whispered, "Keep your voice down. She must be hiding in this forest. Look carefully and don't let her escape."

"Brother, look."

He didn’t say anything, and then there was silence.

Su Nuan guessed that the two must have discovered something. She was extremely anxious and wished she could have a pair of X-ray eyes to see what was going on outside.

After waiting for a while, there was still no sound outside. Su Qingmo's face turned red with suffocation. He pulled Su Nuan's hand away and gasped.

He couldn't care less about any bad guys. If he was suffocated any longer, he would die.

With a rustling sound, the branches were pulled apart, and Zhao Zong's face appeared in front of Su Nuan.

"Concubine Xia, we meet again!"

Su Nuan's heart trembled, and she really regretted not knocking Su Qingmo out immediately.

"Please, Concubine Xia, don't let my brother invite you."

Zhao Zong said this with an obscene smile.

Su Nuan came out from her hiding place in a flash. Without any further ado from Zhao Zong, she led the way towards the house.

Since you can't run away anyway, you might as well be obedient. This is called a man of insight and wisdom.

The main reason was that she didn't want San to take the opportunity to touch her. The thought of it made her feel sick.

Perhaps Zhao Zong still had some concerns about her identity, so he didn't make things difficult for her since she walked away obediently.

But Su Qingmo was in a miserable state. First he ran so hard that he couldn't breathe, then he was covered and couldn't breathe. Now he was so scared that he couldn't even breathe.

San was feeling unhappy because he had not taken advantage of Su Nuan. When he saw Su Qingmo lying on the ground, he took his anger out on him. He stepped forward and kicked him twice, but still not satisfied, so he picked him up by the collar and threw him out of the bushes.

"Hero, spare your life!"

When his collar was grabbed again, Su Qingmo cried and begged for mercy, "My dear, you see, I am not a threat to you because I don't know martial arts, and keeping me is much more useful than killing or crippling me. You see, if I hold Concubine Xia back, she can't escape. If I am crippled, I will be useless, and Concubine Xia will definitely not care about me if she escapes again."

San seemed to be moved by Su Qingmo's words and actually let him go.

Su Nuan was walking in front and when she heard this, she gritted her teeth and decided that she would knock this guy out first before running away next time.

When I ran out, I didn't feel how long I had been running. Only when I walked back did I realize that I had run so far.

Su Nuan deliberately slowed down her pace and secretly observed the surrounding environment while walking.

Guan's house is located in the middle of a forest at the foot of the mountain. It is not like it is embedded in the forest, but rather it seems like the forest forms a protective belt around the house.

The forest is deep and the trees are dense, and it is difficult to find that there is a house here from outside the forest.

The most interesting thing is that there is a large open space between the house and the woods. If someone attacks, they can be found by the people in the house as soon as they come out of the woods.

By the same token, if someone wanted to escape from the house, they would easily be discovered when passing through this open space.

This is really a perfect place to detain human beings.

Returning to the house again, Su Nuan made a small request to Zhao Zong, which was to let her go to the kitchen again.

Even if it is not soaked into rice, you still have to eat it. The bone soup and fried peppers made previously cannot be wasted.

Zhao Zong did not object. In fact, he was looking forward to the dinner of Concubine Xia. Since he tasted the barbecue she made three days ago, he asked her to cook the meals these days. Every meal was different and they were all delicacies he had never eaten before. The more he ate, the more addicted he became. Today, he came back early after finishing his work just to enjoy the food.

What's more, a prince's concubine personally cooks for him. This kind of treatment is probably only enjoyed by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. When he was a groom before, he never even dared to think about it.

Lao Liu, who was knocked unconscious, is now awake, with a cloth wrapped around his head, from which blood is still seeping.

When he saw Su Nuan again, Lao Liu's vicious eyes were filled with resentment.

"Concubine Xia, you are really ruthless. I really underestimated you before."

"Hehe." Su Nuan laughed dryly, feeling a little embarrassed.

Among these five people, the sixth one treated her relatively well. Apart from being ordered to watch over her, he always responded to her requests. There were two times when the third one, that lecher, tried to touch her and it was the sixth one who rescued her.

If it weren't for their different positions, Su Nuan would never have attacked him.

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, it's all misunderstanding. I'll give you a bonus dish for the hotpot tonight."

Before Su Nuan finished speaking, she heard Zhao Zong ask Lao Liu: "Haven't Lao Si and Lao Wu come back yet?"

Lao Liu replied, "No, the guy they were chasing ran faster than a rabbit. It would take a lot of effort to catch him."

"Third brother, go out and take a look. Don't let them get away. If the fourth and fifth brothers can't do it, you will do it."

"Don't worry, big brother. Although the fourth and fifth brothers may not kill people, they have never failed to capture people. I will go to meet them now."

Listening to the conversation between the two, Su Nuan became worried about Chu Qi. Although this guy was disloyal and ran away, if he escaped, he could bring people to rescue himself, so Su Nuan still hoped that he could escape.

But at this moment, I felt a little uncertain: Will Chu Qi ask for help after escaping?
