Mo Lingwei ran over and swept Shen Ningning into his arms.
"Thank goodness you're alright. Otherwise, I would have torn those assassins to pieces."
Nearby, the Black Wolf King and several other male wolves instantly showed their displeasure.
Xie Suzhi turned to look, his own brow furrowing.
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince..."
Hearing his voice, Shen Ningning pushed Mo Lingwei away.
She said softly, "Brother, you're just in time."
"Please send someone to take... take Chancellor Xie back. Find an Imperial Physician to treat him. He's badly hurt."
"And these assassins... I had my wolves leave them alive."
Mo Lingwei listened as she laid out all the arrangements.
The only person she forgot was herself.
"Aren't you coming with me?"
"I want to go back to Wolf Mountain." The little girl's eyes were still dark and empty.
Xie Suzhi said urgently, "No, Ningning, your hand must be injured. Let's go back and have it treated together."
