"You...why are you here?"
The head of the Lü family asked with some surprise.
Duanmu Ying smiled slightly:
"I heard the sounds of battle."
Knowing you are in danger,
So I decided to lend a hand.
A hint of gratitude flashed in Lü Ci's eyes:
"Thank you,
Duanmu Ying.
"You're welcome."
Duanmu Ying's voice carried a faint hint of amusement.
"We still have things to do now."
Let's get out of here right now.
Patriarch Lü and Lü Ci nodded.
they know,
The most important thing now is to get Duanmu Ying to a safe place.
Protect her and her child.
Lü Ci held the food,
He walked straight into the dungeon. 890
The air in the dungeon was cold and damp.
This reflects the anxiety and unease in his heart.
He was well aware that his actions might displease the head of the Lü family.
But he couldn't bear to stand idly by.
Especially knowing that Duanmu Ying was about to give birth,
He felt it was his responsibility to care about her.
"Lü Ci?"
A flicker of hesitation crossed the guard's eyes.
He knew that Lü Ci was the son of the Lü family head.
But he also knew that this young man's attitude towards Duanmu Ying was not as harsh as that towards other family members.
"I was ordered by the head of the family to take care of Duanmu Ying."
Lü Ci's voice was firm.
He knew his actions might cause controversy.
But he was determined to stick to his choice.
……………………~~…………~………………~.
I won't force you to get 270.
The guard frowned.
In the end, Lü Ci was allowed to pass.
I don't want to get entangled with him.
Lü Ci walked up to Duanmu Ying.
Place the food in front of her.
I urged her to eat quickly.
Duanmu Ying was puzzled by this.
She knew that the Lü family had always been harsh on her.
Such a sudden delivery of food...
It struck her as unusual.
however,
She also realized that her body could no longer tolerate the hunger.
Especially since she was about to give birth,
They need more nutrition.
therefore,
She ultimately decided to accept the food that Lü Ci brought.
And it began to eat diligently.
"Why are you doing this?"
Duanmu Ying's voice was filled with doubt and curiosity.
Lu Ci remained silent for a moment.
He knew he couldn't tell Duanmu Ying his true thoughts.
But he didn't want to deceive her either.
He decided to choose a compromise:
"I just think,"
What you need most right now is food and care.
No matter what happened,
I will do everything I can to protect you.
Duanmu Ying silently watched Lü Ci.
She could sense his sincerity and goodwill.
This gradually dispelled her doubts.
She knew she had to stay vigilant.
But I am also willing to believe in Lü Ci's good intentions.
In the following time,
The relationship between Lü Ci and Duanmu Ying gradually became closer.
Lu Ci would come to the dungeon every day to bring food to Duanmu Ying.
Talk to her,
gradually,
A special trust and understanding developed between them.
Although the head of the Lü family was not satisfied with Lü Ci's behavior
However, he could not deny Lü Ci's goodwill and efforts.
He sighed inwardly.
She knew that her son had already begun to go further down his own path.
Duanmu Ying was startled by Lü Ci's sudden action.
He thought he had gotten himself into trouble.
Her heart instantly tightened.
There are concerns that this might be part of a larger conspiracy.
however,
When she saw Lü Ci unlock the chains binding her,
She was very surprised and confused.
"What...what are you doing?"
Duanmu Ying's voice trembled slightly.
Lu Ci looked at her slightly trembling body.
explained:
"I was just acting out of goodwill."
I don't want to see you suffer because of your imprisonment.
A hint of doubt flashed in Duanmu Ying's eyes.
She began to doubt her previous judgment of Lü Ci.
She didn't know what his purpose was in helping her.
"Should I...trust you?"
Duanmu Ying's voice carried a hint of uncertainty.

Lü Ci smiled and shook his head:
You don't have to believe me.
But I hope you can believe in my good intentions.
Duanmu Ying remained silent for a moment.
In the end, he decided to trust Lü Ci.
She knew she had no other choice.
We can only hold on to a sliver of hope.
Follow Lü Ci as they leave this gloomy dungeon.
"Thank you."
Duanmu Ying's voice was somewhat low.
But it was filled with gratitude.
Lü Ci smiled and nodded.
Then he introduced himself:
My name is Lü Ci.
He is the son of the head of the Lü family.
Upon hearing this name, Duanmu Ying...
Slightly startled,
She had no idea that the young man in front of her was actually the son of the head of the Lü family.
