Chapter 1395: Chapter 1395: Also a Victim (1)

Dong Yushi had just wanted to say something, but Dong Wenming had yanked her back fiercely and glared at her, making her bow her head and close her mouth.

“Xinxin, I’ll accompany you…” Dong Wenxiu, however, wasn’t watching her brother and sister-in-law, but approached Yang Ruxin’s side.

“Mom, please don’t make things more complicated,” Yang Ruxin smiled, “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”

“But sister, can’t I accompany you?” Yu Qingge sidled up, “Who knows, I might be able to help.”

“You going would only be a burden.” Yang Ruxin shook her head, “Those people will definitely be extremely vicious, and I really can’t afford to be distracted protecting you.”

“Am I that bad?” Yu Qingge sighed gloomily, thinking to herself that once she got back, she really needed to train hard in martial arts, poison and Gu techniques with Grandpa, because she couldn’t always depend on others to protect her. She found the way her sister Ruxin could protect the people around her decisively to be super cool.

“It’s not that you’re bad, but I’m taking Du Man and Du Juan with me. I’m worried that someone might harm my mother after I leave.” Yang Ruxin patted Yu Qingge’s shoulder, “Yang Miao and the others have no martial skills, so here, Xuxu is the only one who knows martial arts. Therefore, staying in the monastery is safest for you.” She then glanced at the other girls, “You all better stay put here. If anyone acts recklessly and complicates things, don’t blame me for being harsh…”

Everyone nodded.

Yang Ruxin called Xiaoyin out: “Mom, I’ll have Xiaoyin watch over you.”

Xiaoyin swiftly leaped onto Dong Wenxiu’s wrist.

“Xinxin…” Although Dong Wenxiu knew that Xinxin had two snakes that usually clung to her wrists, having one actually on her own wrist still terrified her.

“Mom, just think of it as wearing a bracelet,” Yang Ruxin smiled, “It won’t move unless there is danger. Just go about your usual business.”

“Mom knows, Mom…” Dong Wenxiu took a deep breath, suppressing the troubled words she had and said no more. Knowing that someone could even use Ruoqiu to threaten her, she realized she’d easily become a target too, and she couldn’t afford to be a burden to her daughter, then nodded.

“Got it.”

Yang Ruxin glanced one more time at Dong Wenming and his wife, but said nothing and then turned to leave.

Dong Wenming wanted to say something, but found himself at a loss for words and could only look towards Dong Wenxiu: “Wenxiu…”

“Big brother, sister-in-law.” Dong Wenxiu let out a sigh, “Please leave, I’m tired and want to rest for a bit.”

Dong Wenming also sighed softly and nodded, then turned and left the room.

Dong Yushi quickly followed him out, and when she got to the neighboring guesthouse, she saw Dong Wenming sitting blankly in front of the table, seemingly lost in thought. Her heart twitched, and she walked over to sit opposite him: “Are you blaming me?”

Dong Wenming looked up: “Wasn’t what you did today excessive?”

“But she is our daughter…” Dong Yushi’s tears fell, “Previously, because of the son-in-law matter, we’ve always kept a low profile in front of them. But who knew the son-in-law would turn out that way? We were victims, weren’t we?”

“Regardless, we didn’t verify at the start and that was our mistake,” Dong Wenming frowned, his voice becoming stern, “Moreover, since Wenxiu returned, there were incidents for which Dong Family is responsible. Even though Aqiu got into trouble just now, by kneeling down like that, weren’t you forcing Ruxin’s hand?”
