Guide to raise my cutie husbands-Chapter 1068: Please save my life

Yu Dong turned to look at the young mer who was standing behind her pitifully and frowned. She had seen this mer in the village but never paid attention to him, after all, he was just a small mer whose face was disfigured and was missing a thumb.

Though she did not know what kind of things the mer went through, she did sympathize with him.

However, she only had sympathy for this mer and nothing else what was more he was married.

" Is there something the matter?" She asked the mer who was fiddling with his fingers and trembling from head to toe, though she did not raise her voice and even lowered it slightly the mer still trembled like he had been electrocuted.

The mer jumped in fright. He looked at Yu Dong in panic before he opened his mouth and closed it again, he seemed to want to say something but he was too scared to say anything.

Yu Dong's brows furrowed even more as she looked at the little mer and then asked kindly, " Do you want to talk somewhere else?"

The mer nodded in response. Only then did Yu Dong turn to walk towards a secluded corner. Since no one was near the Rong family, no one saw the two of them go to the corner to talk and Rong Yi was smart enough to keep guard as she carried her child in her arms while covering her carefully.

Though she felt sympathetic towards her daughter, if not for Yu Dong, her daughter would have died. They can't be selfish and burn bridges after crossing the river.

Yu Dong turned to look at the little mer and asked, " Whats the matter with you? It's not that I am being impatient but I need to head back home, whats more if we stay in the corner alone for so long others will gossip."

The mer held his hands tight before raising his head and looking at Yu Dong. His lips were trembling and he said, " Madam Yu… I am here to plead for my life in front of you. I do not have any ill intentions. I saw that you are a woman with a kind heart which is why I know that you would save me… someone…someone wants to kill me."

Yu Dong looked at the scared expression of the mer and then asked, " Who? Who is trying to kill you?"

The mer seemed to be too scared to lie.

The mer swallowed harshly and then said, " Madam Yu, I am Lu Huo. I … I was married off to this village before the winter. I … I came from the imperial city."

Upon hearing that the mer was from the imperial city, Yu Dong's brows rose a little but she still did not say anything and allowed the mer to continue speaking.

" A few… few months ago my mother sent me to this village after my face got ruined, my …my wife is Yiyi, Jin Yiyi.

She is a farmer in your village, I don't know what kind of deal she and my mother have but last night I suddenly found out that someone wanted to choke me to death because I was asleep I could only struggle unconsciously and when I woke up I found that my wife was asleep next to me and there was no one else in the room."

Yu Dong pursed her lips and then asked, " Did you look around the room carefully?"

" I did. I could feel the feeling of someone squeezing my neck which was why I looked around the room carefully but I did not find anyone other than my wife," Lu Huo's eyes turned red. He was really overwhelmed by the sensation of losing his life again, he was worried that if he was to go home today then he might lose his life in the night again.

" Madam Yu, you… you must save me. I am... I am really scared, I don't want to get scared."

Seeing that the mer was really scared, he was panic-stricken and terrified. Yu Dong on the other hand was really calm and unruffled, she said, " Calm down. Why would your wife want to kill you? Is there something that you know?"

Lu Huo stiffened. He opened his mouth and then closed it but did not say anything in the end.

When Yu Dong saw that the mer was not speaking, she said, " You need to tell me the truth, if you don't then how can I believe that your wife tried to kill you?" She paused and then added, " If you don't want to tell me then there is no need." fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

Lu Huo immediately stepped forward before clutching Yu Dong's sleeves and then said, " No, No.. wuwuwu… I will speak... I will speak please don't.. please don't leave."

Yu Dong looked down at the sleeves that Lu Huo was holding, upon noticing Yu Dong's gaze, Lu Huo immediately let go of the sleeves that he was holding and then apologized with a pale face, " I am really sorry." He then took out a small wooden box from his sleeves, he handed it to Yu Dong carefully.

" What is this?" Yu Dong asked as she took the box from Lu Huo.

" This …This is the box that holds the keys to my mother's secrets," Lu Huo replied in a calm voice. " There are twenty or so storage houses in our manor and each storage house has a locker which hides the evidence related to the corruption of my mother and the eldest princess…" his voice was calm but Yu Dong could already feel the weight of the box in her hands.

" Is it enough to execute your mother?"

Lu Huo paused before he nodded solemnly. " Yes, it's enough."

He stole these keys while her mother was preparing for the enthronement of Xian Xieren.

Her mother must have thought that he would have never dared to do something like this but Lu Huo was in a pinch, he knew that his disfigured face that was ruined by the eldest princess had ruined his mother's plans for him and thus he had become an abandoned chess piece, surely she would either kill or destroy him.

Lu Huo did not want to die alone which was why he stole the keys in an attempt to drag his mother down with him and made copies of these keys but looks like his mother found out that he had copied the keys.
