She trusted Master Qi, but Wei Qingruo's attitude suggested he wasn't making empty claims.
For some unknown reason, her feeling of unease kept growing, preventing her from sitting still.
Wei Ruo set out with Wei Yilin and the guards of the residence. Jing Hu, who normally stayed inside the mansion and seldom ventured out, also tagged along this time.
As Wei Ruo and the Wei family guards were about to leave the city, Chu Lan's aides arrived to join them.
Wei Yilin was surprised to see the additional men joining their group.
"Big sister, who are they? And why are they coming with us?" asked Wei Yilin, riding next to Wei Ruo.
"These men were sent by the Seventh Prince to assist us," answered Wei Ruo.
"Oh," Wei Yilin nodded. Despite his young age, he knew the Seventh Prince and their father served together in the army. He had also heard that Wei Ruo had assisted the prince, so it made sense for the prince to return the favor.
