Chapter 1699: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 1699: Jiang Kuanyu Finds Shu Yu
Shu Yu had been listening to the commotion outside all along, and her apprehension came true. Jiang Kuanyu was indeed leading a group of people in a search, starting from the storage room where Meng Yunzheng had been imprisoned.
Judging by the sounds, he had brought at least five or six people with him.
This couldn't continue. It wouldn't be long before they searched their room.
Shu Yu pressed her lips together, and Meng Pei's voice came from behind her. "I'll go out and lead them away."
"I'll go." Shu Yu stood up. "Uncle Meng, you're injured. It's better if you don't move. I'll go out and divert their attention while you hide in here."
However, Meng Pei pushed her aside. "This little injury means nothing. Listen to me. I'll go out."
After saying that, without waiting for Shu Yu to respond, he opened the door and swiftly went outside.
Not only did he go out, but he also locked the door neatly behind him.
Seeing this, Shu Yu could only feel anxious as she pressed her ear against the door, listening to the sounds outside.
Meng Pei's actions of going outside and locking the door had clearly drawn attention. In the current empty area, his abrupt figure instantly became the target of everyone's focus.
Jiang Kuanyu's expression changed slightly, and he rushed forward with his people. "Capture him."
Meng Pei glanced at them and then took off running.
The sound of footsteps rapidly passed by the door, and Jiang Kuanyu chased after him with six others.
However, after chasing for a while, he stopped and also grabbed the person next to him.
He then turned around slowly, looking at the room where Meng Pei had come out.
When Meng Pei ran out, he was alone. However, Meng Xiaoshu was rescued by him.
So, was Meng Yunzheng, who was heavily injured, still in that room?
Instead of chasing, Jiang Kuanyu told his companion, "Come with me."
The two returned to the door of the room and looked at the lock. Jiang Kuanyu tried to open it.
Shu Yu's expression became serious upon hearing the noise.
She looked at the bandit and Master He in the room with her. Both of them appeared frightened.
In a low voice, Shu Yu said, "You two hide behind, find a weapon to hold, and when they come in, I'll give the signal to attack."
The two exchanged nervous glances. "Will that work?"
"It has to work, hurry." Shu Yu's expression grew stern, and the two immediately took the nearby wooden sticks and chair legs, hiding them.
Fortunately, the room was filled with discarded items, so hiding people wouldn't be a problem.
After hiding herself, Shu Yu pointed to Meng Xiaoshu lying there and said to Master He, "What about him?"
"I'll handle it."
However, Shu Yu didn't hide Meng Xiaoshu. Instead, she shifted him slightly to a more conspicuous position.
"Uncle, I apologize."
Meng Xiaoshu was still unconscious. Shu Yu checked his forehead; he still had a fever, but it was slightly better than before.
After finishing that, Shu Yu hid behind the door.
By this time, Jiang Kuanyu had successfully unlocked the door. He was cautious, letting one of his subordinates take a look inside first.
The man opened a slit, and the first thing he saw was Meng Xiaoshu, lying unconscious and covered in injuries.
He quickly turned his head and said, "Young Master Jiang, there's a motionless, heavily injured man lying inside. Is he the one we're looking for?"
Jiang Kuanyu squinted and followed his gaze before cautiously scanning the room.
After confirming there was no one else, he nodded, allowing his subordinate to enter first before he stepped in himself.
