Chapter 176
"What do you want with him?" Li Zhiwei looked at the 'person' in the painting with long hair, crooked eyes, and messy clothes, asking curiously.
"I'm going to kidnap him back to be my mountain stronghold husband, and have him bear a whole litter of children for me!" Kong Meng'er said with a look of pride.
"Ah?" Li Zhiwei was first shocked by the girl's words. Kidnap him back?
And bear a litter of children?
Did she understand correctly? Did she mean for that man to bear them for her?
Li Zhiwei took another careful look at the abstract painting.
Finally, she noticed the sword in the painting looked very familiar.
"Well? Don't you think, sister, that my idea is absolutely brilliant?" Kong Meng'er asked happily.
"Miss, men cannot bear children. If there are to be children, it would have to be you bearing them," Li Zhiwei tried to correct her.
"No, I don't want to bear them. Bearing children is exhausting work; that's a job for the man!" Kong Meng'er said discontentedly.
Li Zhiwei facepalmed. Who wouldn't want the man to do that job?
The problem is, men can't get pregnant and give birth!
"Miss, there is no such person in our residence. Perhaps you should look elsewhere?" In the end, Li Zhiwei didn't want to say much more to this young girl.
After all, she would find out the truth of the matter sooner or later.
"Sister, don't lie to me. I've asked many people; this person is right here in your residence. No good, let me search for him?" Kong Meng'er looked at Li Zhiwei unhappily.
That man actually dared to run away while she was meticulously gathering materials for him. This was a great humiliation to her.
"?" Li Zhiwei frowned. Could it really be that someone in the residence had offended this young lady?
"Then do you know his name?" Li Zhiwei thought for a moment and asked.
If he really was from the residence, she wouldn't mind calling him out for a confrontation.
"I don't know. Oh, right! They call him 'Your Highness'!" Kong Meng'er shook her head and then said.
Now Li Zhiwei understood why Uncle Zhou knew she was looking for Xu Heming.
"Did he personally agree to marry you?" Li Zhiwei frowned and asked?
She thought to herself, he really is like a social butterfly. First, he entangled with Du Qiuniang, and now he's attracted another young girl.
"No! I kidnapped him." Kong Meng'er said with a proud expression.
Li Zhiwei sized up Kong Meng'er, feeling the girl was probably lying.
After all, this young girl looked rather slight, with slender arms and legs, not seeming strong enough to kidnap a grown man.
"Go and summon His Highness," Li Zhiwei said to Qingyue beside her.
"But, Miss..." Qingyue was unwilling to leave, fearing this girl might harm her mistress.
"Go now! She's looking for His Highness, she won't do anything to me," Li Zhiwei said.
"Pretty sister, how about you come back with me? You can be my mountain stronghold wife, and he can be my mountain stronghold husband. Together, we'll live a life of luxury?" Kong Meng'er looked at Li Zhiwei, scheming in her heart. She liked this beautiful sister too.
It would be wonderful to see her every day.
Li Zhiwei's mouth twitched. What kind of talk was this?
"Later, I'll have that 'Your Highness' bear several more children. One for you, one for me. How about it, sister?" Kong Meng'er found the thought of this scene extremely delightful.
"No!" Li Zhiwei refused without a second thought.
She couldn't imagine what that scene would even look like.
Besides, why would she give up being the proper young lady of the Li family to follow some female bandit and be a 'mountain stronghold wife'?
"You dare refuse me?" Kong Meng'er was displeased upon hearing this. She stood up, intending to advance and kidnap Li Zhiwei.
"What are you doing?" Fortunately, Qinghua had been on guard and prevented Kong Meng'er from succeeding.
When practicing martial arts, Kong Meng'er had always found it tiring and wasn't particularly outstanding. Her strengths were her lightness skill and her ox-like strength.
Last time, she succeeded in kidnapping Xu Heming because he was caught off guard.
This time, however, Qinghua was guarding against the girl at every turn.
Kong Meng'er didn't expect this maid to know martial arts. She could only sit discontentedly to the side, crossing her legs, waiting for that 'Your Highness' to arrive.
"Zhiwei?" Xu Heming had just arrived at the front hall when he saw Kong Meng'er sitting there.
Without a second thought, Xu Heming drew the sword from his waist and pointed it at Kong Meng'er: "Female demon, what do you want?"
Xu Heming felt that on this trip to Li'an County, the incidents he encountered were each more embarrassing than the last.
"Who said you could run away? Hurry up and come back with me obediently!" Kong Meng'er saw Xu Heming and reproached him unhappily.
"You really know her?" Now it was Li Zhiwei's turn to be shocked.
Remembering the portrait the girl had shown earlier and her words about having Xu Heming bear a litter of children for her, Li Zhiwei felt like laughing.
She never knew Xu Heming could be involved in something like this?
"I don't. She ambushed us on the road." Xu Heming originally didn't want to mention this embarrassing affair, but he never expected this person could track him to the Li residence.
"Us? Who else?" Li Zhiwei then remembered that Xu Heming had come to Li'an County alone. Logically, his attendant Qingsong should have definitely accompanied him, yet he wasn't here.
Could it be that Qingsong was still in her custody?
Li Zhiwei looked at Kong Meng'er again, thinking to herself that this seemingly harmless young girl was actually a bandit?
Moreover, she had managed to succeed against Xu Heming.
"No one else." Xu Heming coughed lightly, somewhat embarrassed, as he was the only one who had been captured.
"What are you two muttering about?" Kong Meng'er saw the two whispering and asked angrily.
Fortunately, Xu Heming had long since instructed Qing Chuan and others to restrain Kong Meng'er.
"What are you doing?" Kong Meng'er never expected someone would dare to seize her.
"Take her back to Deyang Mountain Manor. If she appears before me again, don't blame me for being impolite." Xu Heming felt relieved seeing Kong Meng'er captured.
"Go, make her swallow this!" Xu Heming took out a pill and handed it to Qinghua.
Without hesitation, Qinghua walked up to Kong Meng'er, pinched her jaw, and directly fed it to her.
"What did you make me swallow?" Kong Meng'er asked in panic, then her whole person fainted.
"What did you give her?" Li Zhiwei asked in alarm.
"Just some medicine to make her sleep soundly, that's all." After saying this, Xu Heming breathed a sigh of relief.
The trouble of Kong Meng'er was finally resolved.
Li Zhiwei looked at Xu Heming somewhat strangely, feeling he was hiding something from her.
"Zhiwei, I'll go dismantle the Huo family now to vent your anger." Xu Heming felt somewhat uncomfortable under Li Zhiwei's gaze and quickly said.
"By yourself?" Li Zhiwei now also doubted. If this man couldn't even handle a young girl, how could he dismantle the Huo family?
"Ahem, no, Qingsong and the others have also arrived." Xu Heming said somewhat awkwardly.
Li Zhiwei nodded. Just as she was about to say something, Uncle Zhou brought someone in and said excitedly, "Young Lady, look, who's here?"
Li Zhiwei turned around and saw a somewhat familiar face.
