Once the sound of the secret passage closing came through, someone inside the chamber noticed and immediately let out a gasp.
Uncle Meng's expression changed; he instructed the others to stay inside the chamber and by no means reveal themselves, while he went out to bring Ms. Tao and Tao Qin back.
But by the time he went out, Ms. Tao and Tao Qin had already gone far.
Luckily, Jiang Kuanyu had already returned to the front yard by this time, so he hadn't seen that the entrance to the secret chamber was inside the woodshed.
When Uncle Meng chased to the front yard, he happened to see Tao Qin running towards Jiang Kuanyu.
He immediately wanted to stop her, but who would've thought Ms. Tao would turn her head to block him, even accusing him of being selfish and indifferent, leaving them for dead.
Uncle Meng was infuriated, directly pushing Ms. Tao aside.
