Chapter 791 - 792: Winning the Battle (1)_1

Before he can finish, the man on the horse raises his hand and something unknown flies out, hitting the little boy’s head. The boy rolls his eyes and collapses.
The other three little boys, who were more cunning, seeing that this man remained aloof after hearing about the Duke An’s Mansion, and noticing his overall demeanor and dress, readily assumed him to be no ordinary person. Thus, they promptly abandoned any idea of a direct confrontation, obediently returning to Zuihua Pavilion to report what they had witnessed.
From the moment Cai Wei was caught as she fell from the building, until Du Yuheng’s little boys were sent away, she had been held in this man’s arms. Once her fear and despair had gradually subsided, she finally realized that it was inappropriate.

"Young Master, please, put me down. I can manage on my own!" She moved a little, pleading softly.
At her request, Mo Ziqi looked down at her, said nothing, and bent down to let her go.
