Rebirth and Reversal of Fortune

Chapter 148 Xiao Ling's Worries, A Daring Escape

Xiao Ling was worried about Su Jinxiu's safety, so he secretly sent his trusted confidants to follow and protect her, while also making preparations to meet her outside.

After Su Jinxiu left the Marquis's residence, Xiao Ling was restless and filled with worry.

"Madam's journey is fraught with danger; I hope she will return safely." Xiao Ling paced back and forth in the study, glancing out the window every now and then.

The trusted confidant he sent was named Lin Feng, a loyal follower who had served him for many years. Lin Feng followed Su Jinxiu cautiously, not daring to slacken his guard in the slightest.

"You must protect Madam, even if it costs you your life." This was Xiao Ling's instruction to him.

Outside the Marquis's residence, Xiao Ling personally led a team of elite soldiers, hiding in the shadows, waiting to meet Su Jinxiu.

As time ticked by, Xiao Ling's heart grew increasingly tense.

"Why is there still no news?" He frowned, feeling anxious.

At this time, Lin Feng was also facing tremendous pressure in the enemy camp. He had to keep a close eye on Su Jinxiu's movements while avoiding being discovered by the enemy.

"Madam must not be harmed," Lin Feng prayed silently.

Suddenly, news came that Su Jinxiu had been found in the study, and Lin Feng's heart jumped into his throat.

"Oh no, Madam is in danger!" He disregarded his surroundings and rushed towards Su Jinxiu.

Meanwhile, Xiao Ling also received the news. He gripped his sword tightly, ready to charge into the enemy camp at any moment.

"Brothers, get ready, we must rescue the lady!" Xiao Ling's voice was firm and resolute.

Su Jinxiu desperately fled through the enemy camp, pursued by enemy soldiers.

Lin Feng arrived just in time and engaged in a fierce battle with the enemy.

"Madam, let's go!" Lin Feng shouted.

Su Jinxiu dared not stop and continued running forward.

Upon hearing the sounds of fighting, Xiao Ling knew the situation was critical and led his soldiers into the enemy camp.

"Kill!" Xiao Ling roared, brandishing his sword and instantly killing several enemies.

With Xiao Ling and Lin Feng's valiant resistance, Su Jinxiu finally broke out of the enemy camp.

"Madam, are you alright?" Xiao Ling asked with concern.

Su Jinxiu gasped for breath: "I'm fine, thanks to you all."

However, before they could even catch their breath, the enemy came chasing after them.

"We can't let them escape!"

Xiao Ling and his men fought and retreated, gradually finding themselves in a predicament.

"This can't go on, we have to break through!" Xiao Ling said.

At a critical moment, Xiao Ling discovered a weakness in the enemy's defenses.

"Come at me!"

They fought desperately and finally broke through the enemy's encirclement.

But the enemy did not give up the pursuit and kept chasing them relentlessly.

"Speed ​​up!" Xiao Ling shouted.

Just when they were about to be exhausted, they finally saw the gate of the Marquis's mansion.

When the guards of the Marquis's residence saw them return, they immediately opened the gates and let them in.

"Close the door!" Xiao Ling shouted.

With the gates tightly shut, the enemy was kept out.

Xiao Ling and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed to the ground.

"This was really dangerous," Xiao Ling said.

Looking at the exhausted crowd, Su Jinxiu felt a mixture of gratitude and guilt.

"It's all my fault; I put everyone in danger."

Xiao Ling comforted her, "Madam, don't blame yourself. As long as you are safe and sound, that's all that matters."

However, they knew that the enemy would not give up easily, and even more severe tests awaited them...

Su Jinxiu was nearly discovered in the enemy camp, but at the critical moment, she used her wit and agility to escape the enemy's pursuit and finally made a thrilling escape.

Su Jinxiu's heart pounded in her chest, her breathing rapid and erratic. As the enemy's footsteps drew closer, she quickly hid in a corner piled with junk.

"Search carefully, don't miss any corner!" The enemy's shouts echoed in my ears.

Su Jinxiu covered her mouth tightly, afraid of making a sound. Her eyes nervously scanned her surroundings, her mind racing as she thought of a way to escape.

Just then, she noticed a tattered cloth curtain beside her, and an idea immediately came to her. She quietly draped the curtain over herself, then curled up in a corner, trying to make herself look like a pile of junk.

The enemy's footsteps grew closer, each step feeling like a blow to her heart.

"There seems to be something here." An enemy's voice came, and Su Jinxiu's heart jumped into her throat.

“It’s just some useless junk, keep searching!” another enemy said.

Su Jinxiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but she knew the danger was not over yet.

Taking advantage of the enemy's momentary distraction, she quietly moved out from the corner and carefully made her way along the wall.

Suddenly, an enemy turned around and nearly bumped into her. Su Jinxiu quickly dodged into a narrow passage nearby, her heart pounding.

"There seems to be some movement!" The enemy noticed the anomaly and began to walk towards the passage.

Su Jinxiu quickened her pace. At the end of the passage was a window. Without hesitation, she pushed open the window and jumped out.

The moment she landed, she felt a sharp pain in her ankle, but she ignored it and forced herself to get up and continue running.

The enemy discovered her whereabouts and chased after her, shouting.

Su Jinxiu desperately fled through the intricate streets and alleys, using her familiarity with the terrain to turn left and right, trying to shake off her enemies.

"Don't let her get away!" the enemy's voice kept coming from behind.

Su Jinxiu's strength was gradually failing, but her will remained unwavering.

Just then, she saw a horse-drawn carriage loaded with goods ahead. A clever idea struck her, and she hid under the carriage.

The enemy pursued them, looked around but couldn't find her, so they continued their chase.

After the enemies had gone far away, Su Jinxiu crawled out from under the carriage and continued towards the Marquis's residence.

However, her whereabouts were discovered by enemy spies, and more enemies surrounded her.

"What should we do?" Su Jinxiu was extremely anxious.

At that moment, she saw a shop on the side of the road and rushed inside.

"Madam, what happened?" the shopkeeper asked in surprise.

Su Jinxiu didn't have time to explain and hid in the back room of the shop.

The enemy broke into the shop and questioned the shop owner.

"I didn't see anyone suspicious," the shopkeeper said, following Su Jinxiu's instructions.

The enemy left with some doubt.

Su Jinxiu quietly left through the back door of the shop and continued on her way.

Finally, she saw the gate of the Marquis's mansion.

"Open the door quickly, it's me!" Su Jinxiu called out weakly.

The guards of the Marquis's residence opened the gate and welcomed her inside.

"Madam, you're finally back!" the guards exclaimed with delight.

Su Jinxiu collapsed to the ground, panting heavily, her heart filled with the relief of surviving a disaster.

However, before she could recover, the enemy learned that she had escaped back to the Marquis's residence and regrouped their forces to launch an attack on the residence.

"Strengthen vigilance and prepare to meet the enemy!" Xiao Ling shouted the order.

The Marquis's mansion is engulfed in a fierce battle. Will Su Jinxiu be able to extricate herself from this crisis completely...?
