Chapter 729: Chapter 729: Getting Married Chapter 729: Chapter 729: Getting Married After all, even Meng Pei himself was confused, and although he trusted his friends, he was very cautious about matters concerning Song Xin, not daring to make any guesses for fear of harming her.
Until he saw that Song Xin had not woken up and noticed injuries on her body, he became worried that something had happened to her, so he secretly found a doctor to come over.
Then he found out about Song Xin’s pregnancy.
At that moment, Meng Pei felt completely numb–Song Xin was actually married!! He was very distressed, but on reflection, since she was already seventeen years old, getting married did not seem surprising.
Despite his discomfort, Meng Pei still took the best care of her.
When Song Xin finally woke up, he asked her for her family address, intending to send her back.
But Song Xin dared not return, as going back either to the Song Family or to that small courtyard was akin to walking into death.
She refused to leave and even feared the soldiers outside who were actively searching for assassins from the Liu Mansion, showing signs of miscarriage at one point.
Concerned about her safety, Meng Pei did not ask further and continued to take care of her.
Originally, he was supposed to rest for two days before returning to the escort agency, but given Song Xin’s condition, it was clearly not suitable for her to travel. Moreover, since she had no household registration and the checks in the city were strict, they might get arrested if they left.
So, Meng Pei let the other members of the escort agency return first, and he stayed behind.
This stay turned into a good half a month.
In the capital, the assassins were caught, escaped, or killed, and it seemed that things were finally calming down.
Meng Pei also gradually learned about some of Song Xin’s experiences, and he harbored intense hatred for the person who had mistreated her, though he did not know his identity.
Thinking that Song Xin had escaped from the Liu Mansion, he guessed that the man might have been that lecherous fiend from the Liu Mansion. Unfortunately, that man had died in the assassination that day, getting off too lightly.
Now, the top priority was to help Song Xin leave the capital.
Having traveled extensively over the years and built many connections, Meng Pei, known for his loyalty and ability to get things done, could perhaps acquire a fake household registration. Coincidentally, a recent disaster in a certain area had left many refugees without documentation, necessitating re-registration.
Seizing this opportunity, Meng Pei quickly rode out of the city to the disaster-stricken town, secured a new identity for Song Xin, and then took her away from the capital.
Having escaped to safety, Song Xin felt much more at ease.
But there was still one problem–the child in her womb…
Of course, Meng Pei could not rest easy letting her find a place to live alone, give birth to the child, and raise the child by herself, especially if she were to encounter any danger again, as he would be out of reach to help.
Moreover, Meng Pei also harbored a subtle notion.
After a long conversation with Song Xin, they got married.
As soon as the two returned home, they began preparing for the wedding.
Meng Pei’s parents had both passed away, his father having died three years ago, and his mourning period had just ended four months prior.
His uncles and aunts had already started looking for suitable young women for him, not expecting him to bring back someone himself. Before the uncles could voice their opinions, Meng Pei had already sent someone to buy wedding necessities.
The uncles still wanted to give advice, but it was hard to dissuade Meng Pei, who was now the head of the escort agency. Over the years, he had developed a decisive nature, holding a unique position within the agency.
Moreover, Meng Pei himself had mentioned that in half a month, he would be transporting a load of goods to the Southern region, and he feared it would take three to five months before he could return. If he did not marry now, he would have to wait at least another half a year.
He did not want any complications.
Seeing Song Xin’s frail but beautiful appearance, the uncles felt there was some sense to it.
