Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey! Chapter 564 - 177 Chen Jie: Nan Batian didn’t expect me to s

Nan Batian had nearly depleted the entire Fishing Guild’s manpower to capture him, leaving only the Fishing Guild Disciples stationed in various locations. Those who could be mobile, along with those watching over the hos and protecting the courtyards, had almost all been dispatched. Now, the Fishing Guild Headquarters had less than a hundred guards remaining.

Though this number of guards could manage ordinary people, it was insufficient against Chen Jie.

Chen Jie, an Energy Transformation Master, found infiltrating the sparsely defended Fishing Guild Headquarters as easy as reaching into a pocket.

Chen Jie arrived at the Fishing Guild Headquarters and with one leap, he was on the rooftop; he then sped across the roof toward the inner courtyard. He had been to the Fishing Guild Headquarters a few tis and knew the guild leader’s wife’s room was in the West Garden.

There was a small courtyard to the west, where four guards stood outside at this mont.

Standing at the entrance chatting with each other, they didn’t feel overly tense. After all, this was the Fishing Guild Headquarters—who would dare to cause trouble here?

As Chen Jie approached, he saw them chatting rrily, discussing whether Nan Batian could really take down Chen Jiusi this ti, given the deploynt of seven to eight hundred people.

anwhile, inside the West Garden, Huang Wan’er sat in front of the window while Du Juan paced anxiously: "Madam, we’re finished this ti, utterly finished. When the master left, he said he would chop Master Chen to pieces. I fear Master Chen will not escape this calamity!"

Huang Wan’er said nothing, only silently gazing out the window with worry in her eyes!

"Madam, please say sothing. If Master Chen is in trouble, what about what’s inside your belly... Alas, in another two months it will beco obvious, and then you’ll have no one to support you. The master will kill you!"

As Du Juan spoke anxiously, Huang Wan’er remained silent and after a long while said, "Du Juan, you should leave now."

"Ah, Madam, I didn’t an that, I..."

Du Juan tried to explain, but Huang Wan’er interjected, "I can take care of the rest myself. In the drawer of that cabinet over there, there are two thousand taels of silver. Take the money, leave Mianshui County, and it’s best if you also leave Huangzhou Prefecture. Go live your life."

Hearing this, Du Juan said, "Madam, why do you speak such words again? I, I won’t leave you."

Huang Wan’er replied, "Like you said, if Mr. Chen dies, I’m a tree without roots. In two months’ ti, I’ll be facing a dead end. There’s no need for you to partake in a sacrificial burial with ."

"Madam, you just need to find a way to abort the child, then you won’t have to die!"

Du Juan could no longer contain herself and directly shared her blunt thoughts with Huang Wan’er, who fell silent for a mont then said, "I, too, want to live... but I want him to live even more!"

Hearing these words, Du Juan was stunned, looking at Huang Wan’er.

She knew the lady’s temperant all too well; when had Madam ever feared death? When had she not longed for its arrival?

But today, Madam actually expressed her desire to live!

Was it the child? Was it what had changed Madam?

Du Juan said nothing but could only see Huang Wan’er, bathed in sunlight, gazing at the blue sky and white clouds outside, caressing her belly with a hint of a smile on her lips.

Madam longed so much for freedom and a child!

"Madam, let’s escape!"

Du Juan looked at Huang Wan’er and spoke earnestly. Surprised, Huang Wan’er turned back to look at her.

Du Juan nodded, "Let’s run away, escape from this place, escape from Mianshui County, and then give birth to the child!"

A glimr of hope shone in Huang Wan’er’s eyes, but it quickly faded as she shook her head, "Impossible. Although Nan Batian has taken a large number of people from the mansion, there are still over a hundred left. With just the two of us weak won, even two strong n would make our escape impossible."

"Furthermore, even if we did manage to run away, where could we go? We won’t be able to leave Mianshui County. Once caught, I might still have a chance to live, but you would undoubtedly die."

Huang Wan’er sighed and said, "Just let it be."

Du Juan responded, "Madam, I’m not afraid. I have a distant relative living right in the city. We could take refuge in their ho and look for an opportunity to flee. If you really don’t want to, we can ask for help from the people of White Tiger Hall!"

"White Tiger Hall? Heh, it’s uncertain whether Mr. Chen will survive this ordeal, why should we go there? And I don’t want to trouble them because of my own issues!"

"If Grandpa Chen does encounter trouble, don’t they still have their housekeeper? Let her help us. The last ti we t that little young lady nad Su Yunjin, she seed understanding. Carrying the seed of the Chen family, she can’t just watch as we’re caught by Nan Batian and taken back," said Du Juan.

Huang Wan’er fell silent upon hearing this and then said, "If my child also needs to live at the rcy of others, perhaps he shouldn’t co into this world."

"I won’t beg anyone, and if Mr. Chen is in trouble, she may not even be able to save herself, let alone be burdened with our troubles. Let it be, Du Juan. Take the money and prepare to flee."

"Madam, I won’t leave!"

Du Juan clenched her teeth, "There must be so other way."

Huang Wan’er said nothing more, only smiled, then added, "What other way is there? This is life, just like in Jianghu. Every few years, a new prodigy rises, and every few years another falls. The waves sift through the sand, everyone thinks they are the wave tars, but in the end, all that may be left is desolation~"

"Madam, you..."

"Don’t persuade anymore. I’ve accepted my fate. I just want to spend this last bit of ti with him, feeling his presence in my belly. That’s enough. At the very least, it proves that he was here, and I’ve had him!"
