Ouyang Yunduo's expression instantly crumbled. She struggled with all her might, but Ouyang Jian held onto her with all his strength; she simply couldn't break free.
Looking at Ouyang Yunduo's expression, Ouyang Jian knew she hadn't truly repented. Especially after discovering her location – Shui Lu Star. Lu Wanqing and Lu Yang had only just arrived, and she had followed them here. What was her motive? It barely required any investigation.
Ouyang Jian quickly took out the handcuffs Tian Xing used to restrain prisoners. *Click*, they snapped shut on Ouyang Yunduo's wrists. *Click*, the other end was locked onto his own.
Only after the handcuffs were secured could Ouyang Jian finally let go of his worried heart. If he could find and bring her back before she made a grave mistake, everything could still be salvaged and mended.
"Ouyang Jian! Are you even my real brother!" Ouyang Yunduo cried in anger, glaring at Ouyang Jian.
Seeing his sister's stubbornness, Ouyang Jian felt something was off. His sister shouldn't have this kind of personality.
They had known Lu Yang for hundreds of years. In such a long span of time, if his sister truly liked Lu Yang so much that she would resort to any means to get him, why hadn't she done anything before?
Why did she only go mad like this after Lu Wanqing was revived and was with Lu Yang?
"It's precisely because I am your real brother that I'm intervening. Otherwise, I wouldn't bother with your reckless pursuit of death," Ouyang Jian said expressionlessly.
When people live for a long time, they sometimes become very lazy. They don't want to bother with anything. If not for necessity, who would want to be troublesome every day?
Ouyang Jian barely concealed his expression. Ouyang Yunduo stomped her foot in anger, "You!"
Ouyang Jian remained expressionless and turned to walk outside.
Ouyang Yunduo's wrist was handcuffed to Ouyang Jian, making escape impossible. As Ouyang Jian walked, she had no choice but to follow.
"Ouyang Jian, if you have the guts, let me go!" Ouyang Yunduo stumbled as she was pulled along, shouting in fury.
Ouyang Jian didn't reply. He simply walked out the door and dragged Ouyang Yunduo onto the flying vehicle.
The flying vehicle's door quickly closed and then started.
Ouyang Yunduo frowned and asked, "Brother, where are we going?"
Ouyang Jian looked at Ouyang Yunduo. He thought for a moment, then said seriously, "To see Ah Yang and Lu Wanqing."
What?
Ouyang Yunduo froze, looking at Ouyang Jian in disbelief.
Ouyang Jian said, "I've already told them about you leaking Lu Wanqing's travel plans to the Insect Queen last time. You must apologize to them now."
Ouyang Yunduo: "..."
"You wish!" Ouyang Yunduo quickly reacted, furious. She lowered her head and reached into Ouyang Jian's pocket.
The key!
She wanted the key to the handcuffs!
She wanted to escape!
Ouyang Jian hadn't even reacted. He had been prepared before coming. So, after Ouyang Yunduo fumbled for a long time, she found nothing.
Ouyang Yunduo also quickly realized that her brother had no intention of letting her leave.
Ouyang Yunduo became increasingly irritable and anxious. As the flying vehicle drew closer to Lu Wanqing's quadrangle house on Shui Lu Star, she suddenly stood up, ready to run!
Ouyang Jian yanked her back. Before Ouyang Yunduo could resist, he delivered a swift chop to the back of her neck, knocking her unconscious.
The flying vehicle soon stopped at the entrance of the quadrangle. Guards quickly arrived.
"It's me. Could you please inform Lu Wanqing and Ah Yang?" Ouyang Jian politely said to the guards.
The guards quickly agreed, "Lord Ouyang, please wait a moment."
The guards quickly went inside to relay the message.
Inside the house, Lu Wanqing and Lu Yang heard that Ouyang Jian had arrived and hurried out. The other people in the house also went out together.
At the entrance of the quadrangle, they saw Ouyang Jian holding the unconscious Ouyang Yunduo as he looked at them.
"What... what happened?" Even Lu Wanqing was a little confused now. What was this situation?
"I knocked her out. Can we go inside to talk?" Ouyang Jian asked.
Ouyang Jian explained, "I've put handcuffs on Duo'er, so don't worry, she can't escape."
Ouyang Jian... was truly putting in great effort.
Regardless of Ouyang Yunduo's character, Lu Wanqing felt that Ouyang Jian was a good person through and through.
"Of course, we can talk inside," Lu Wanqing invited.
Ouyang Jian, carrying Ouyang Yunduo, followed them into the quadrangle. In the main hall, Harvey proactively brought over a stool, allowing Ouyang Jian to place Ouyang Yunduo on it.
Ouyang Jian glanced at the considerate Harvey. This child had many bad habits usually, but in critical moments, he understood human relationships the best!
"What's wrong with her?" Lu Yang finally spoke, inquiring.
"She was being difficult, so I knocked her out," Ouyang Jian explained.
Upon hearing this, everyone understood, and their relieved hearts finally settled.
Ouyang Jian was silent for a moment, then said sternly, "Ah Yang, I think Yunduo has a problem."
"What problem?" Harvey was the most curious, his eyes sparkling. He was the first to ask.
Ouyang Jian looked at Harvey, then at Lu Wanqing and Lu Yang. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Can we talk privately?"
There were too many people here, and this matter involved Duo'er. After all, he was her own brother, and instinctively, he wanted to protect his sister.
Lu Yang and Lu Wanqing exchanged glances. After a moment, Lu Yang nodded, "Alright."
There was a study in the quadrangle. They quickly entered it together.
In the study, the children had all left. Only Lu Yang, Lu Wanqing, Ouyang Jian, and the unconscious Ouyang Yunduo remained.
"Ah Yang, Yunduo leaking information to the insect race last time, I've always found it very strange. She..."
"We humans and the insect race have always been mortal enemies. How could Yunduo have managed to report to the insect race?"
Ouyang Jian slowly, word by word, revealed the doubts in his heart.
Lu Yang frowned, "You think she..."
Ouyang Jian took a deep breath and said, "Ah Yang, do you think there's a possibility that Yunduo has an insect race parasite within her? And these parasites have been influencing Yunduo?"
"Even if Yunduo likes you and wants to deal with a love rival, to get rid of Lu Wanqing, why would her information directly reach the Insect Queen? Does Yunduo secretly know the Insect Queen?"
Ouyang Jian found it absurd. It was simply impossible.
"Also, Yunduo hasn't liked you for just today. She wasn't like this before. You rejected her, and she didn't pester you excessively, right?" Ouyang Jian said.
Lu Yang thought for a moment and nodded, "Mm."
Ouyang Jian was not wrong about this matter. Before Wanqing was revived, he and his sister had known Lu Yang for many years. During those hundreds of years, Ouyang Yunduo had indeed liked him. He had rejected her. Although Ouyang Yunduo had said she wouldn't give up, she never excessively pestered him. Most of the time, Ouyang Yunduo was busy with her own life, traveling across the galaxy freely. As for him, he was also busy with his own affairs, completely undisturbed.
