"Even if you can take her out, have you ever thought that if the Qian family, the Wu family, will let you go? Even if you run away, they would definitely find you out. Where do you think you can hide? Are you going to escape them for the rest of your life?"
Finn finally infuriated Magnus. He looked at Finn with discontent and said, "You told me not to be selfish and to stand up to protect my beloved ones, but now you are telling me not to do that. Are you teasing me?"
His eyes were wide open with anger. He still had sense, or he might have beat Finn.
Finn didn't want to have a fight with him here. If there was any trouble, the Qian family would bear him a grudge.
He softened his tone and said, "I just told you the unfavorable conditions. You have to think it twice before you make any decision."
"No, I can't wait any longer. I have endured long enough. I can feel what she has been suffering. I want to take her away and set her free."
To Finn's surprise, Magnus rejected him outright.
"Then go and do it. I won't stop you. When you both have to die, be imprisoned forever, or to be set apart forever, don't feel regret for what you are doing," Finn said angrily.
He tried to be nice, but Magnus didn't listen to him at all.
Magnus indeed calmed down hearing that what Finn had said, but he felt so painful inside.
He clenched his fists and his face muscles tightened as he gritted his teeth. He wanted to vent his anger, but he didn't know how.
Finn felt sorry for his painful experience and said, "Take a seat. It's just to take a person away. I've done that before and maybe I can help you."
Magnus then returned to his seat.
"First, we need to know where she is now and how many guards are around her. And then we need to plan an escape route...."
In the afternoon, guests came one after another, but they were only from small families, the big families hadn't arrived yet.
The Qian family was lively as guests increased. These people normally knew each other, so when they got together, they chatted lively, waiting for the start of the engagement banquet in the evening.
At seven o'clock in the evening when everything was ready, the big families began to make their appearances.
Some of them were from the southwest, northwest, northeast and southeast, and some were from the Capital. The comers were the eldest sons the families of the head of the families, who represented the whole family.
In addition to these families, businessmen, politicians and the like who had been in touch with the Qian family had come attending the wedding ceremony.
There were numerous guests whom Finn didn't know.
But the stars of the night were of course the Qian family and the Wu family. In the evening, the bridegroom showed up.
In his early twenties, he looked handsome and well-built. Most of the descendants of noble families were martial arts practitioners, so they wouldn't be too thin.
Wearing a white suit, he looked relaxed in front of the people and was eloquent. His generosity left a good impression on the guests.
In a short while, he had greeted most of the guests.
Finn, who was standing in the corner, did not come forward. He just stood and watched, and wondered where Magnus had gone.
It was very lively now, but something was bound to happen.
