Chapter 36: The Childish Little Princess
"Get out?" , Rao is Zhou Ming had already guessed before he came in, but when he heard Li Yan's words, he couldn't help but be stunned.
"Well, get out, I can't stand it." Li Yan nodded her little head vigorously, and her serious appearance didn't look like a joke: "I'm going to escape with my sister." ”
"Your sister?" Zhou Ming said.
"Yes, do you know why this birthday banquet is held, that is, my parents want to choose a husband for my sister, I don't allow it, I definitely don't allow it, my sister marries someone who doesn't love her at all." Li Yan's emotions were very excited, and her eyes were a little red.
Zhou Ming looked at her quietly, and waited until Li Yan's mood calmed down a little before he calmed down calmly: "Tell me, what's going on?" ”
With Zhou Ming's skills, with the cover of the night, he can retreat from the Li family's manor, but with two girls, it is not so easy, and he also wants to know what is going on, so he will decide whether to help or not.
Zhou Ming's voice seemed to have magic in it, making Li Yan involuntarily obey.
"Among the people I know, you are the only one who dares to help me escape, so I give you the invitation in the hope that you can help me." Li Yan calmed down and began to speak.
Li Yan also has a sister above her, two years older than her, and the sisters have had a good relationship since childhood, especially the elder sister, who has grown up like a crystal doll since she was a child, and is the pearl of Li Tiancheng and his wife.
If the story develops normally, Sister Li Yan is destined to have a glorious life and live in the eyes of everyone's admiration and envy, but a disaster twelve years ago changed everything.
Twelve years ago, the old man of the Li family was still alive, and Li Tiancheng had not yet ascended to the position of the head of the family, far from being as popular as he is now, and he was only a relatively outstanding member of the Li family.
Li Tiancheng was ruthless in his early years, rarely giving his opponents a way to live, and offended many people.
On that day, a group of masked robbers broke into the villa where Li Tiancheng lived, killed people when they saw them, and the methods were extremely cruel, and the whole villa was bleeding.
The two little girls were frightened by this bloody and horrific scene, and hid in the utility room and did not dare to move, but fortunately the robbers also knew that they could not stay long, so they did not search carefully, but before leaving, they set fire to the villa.
The pungent smell of smoke rushed in, and the two sisters found that there was a fire outside, and they wanted to escape, but something was blocked outside the utility room, and the two little girls were delicate and frail, where did they get the strength, and they could only desperately watch the temperature around them get higher and higher, and the fire slowly burned in from the outside.
At the critical moment, Li Yan's sister pressed her sister under her, blocking the fire and burning debris.
By the time the police arrived in time, extinguished the fire, and found the sisters hiding in the utility room, everything was irreparable.
Li Yan was protected by her sister, only slightly burned, sent to the hospital for treatment for a few days, and was discharged intact, but her sister, in order to protect her, was severely burned, and when she was sent to the hospital, the whole person was dying, although she finally survived under the full rescue of the hospital, the fire left indelible marks on her body.
From a beloved and pink-carved little girl, to a yaksha with large scars on her body, like a ghost.
Afterwards, Old Man Li was furious, and he made great efforts to find out those kidnappers and retaliate against them, but for Li Yan's sister, it was useless.
"After returning from the hospital, my sister became silent, often hiding alone in a dark room and crying secretly, I still remember, my sister has loved to laugh since she was a child, loves to sing, is lively and active, and everyone loves her, but in the past twelve years, I have never seen my sister laugh." Li Yan cried bitterly, her eyes sliding down like a broken kite.
"It's my fault, it's all my fault, if it weren't for protecting me, my sister wouldn't be so miserable, I hurt her."
Zhou Ming fell silent, with a sigh in his heart.
Twelve years ago, he was still a child, so naturally he didn't remember such a thing, and when he faded out of the circle of the children of the family later, Li Yan's sister had long since closed the door and disappeared from everyone's sight, of course he didn't know the existence of the other party.
No wonder Li Yan asked herself what is the most important thing for a girl that day, and other people's answers may be different, but for Li Yan's sister, there is no doubt that the answer is the only one.
"It's been twelve years, my sister has been closed, except for me and my parents, I haven't seen anyone anymore, I know the pain in her heart, I must do something for her." Wiping her tears, Li Yan's expression was unprecedentedly serious.
"My parents have long wanted to have this birthday party, they are worried that my sister will not be able to get married, and they are worried that she will die alone, so they want to use their power to find a husband for their sister, but I know that the husband who finds it like that will not really fall in love with my sister at all, for my sister, this is more uncomfortable than killing her, I will never allow such a thing to happen."
The last time Li Yan left home, she had a conflict with her parents because of the birthday banquet, and after a big quarrel, she ran out of the house.
"Help me, Zhou Ming, my parents' attitude this time is very resolute, I can't change it, what I can do for my sister is to help her escape from here." Li Yan looked at Zhou Ming, her eyes full of anticipation.
"I've already told my sister to let her come here, I've already observed, this is the weakest place in our family's defense, there is a great possibility to escape, and when my sister comes, let's escape." Li Yan said her plan.
Zhou Ming shook his head secretly, Li Yan had a child's temper attack or rather, it was because of her sister's deep guilt that she had such a crazy idea, but there was no doubt that her plan would not succeed.
If it was so easy to break out, the Li family would have been destroyed countless times, thinking that after the disaster twelve years ago, Li Tiancheng would attach more importance to the defense of the Li family's manor, unless it was to mobilize the army or a top killer to attack, it would be impossible to break through the defense of the Li family.
Moreover, even if she escapes, so what, Li Yan's sister's appearance is easy to be discovered by outsiders, and the damage will be even greater when the time comes, it is far better to hide in the safe haven of the Li family manor, after all, here, no one dares to point fingers at Li Tiancheng's daughter.
If it was Zhou Ming before, there would definitely be no way, out of sympathy for Li Yan's sister, he would help them escape, although it was impossible to succeed, but now, Zhou Ming had other ways to better solve this problem.
After hesitating, Zhou Ming planned to stop Li Yan's crazy idea first.
"Silly boy." At that moment, a hoarse voice sounded faintly outside the house.
