"Manager Gu, there's no need to panic. My master is just inviting you for a cup of tea."

The person in the carriage had a high-pitched voice, which was rather unpleasant to listen to.

Gu An'an calmed down and said, "I didn't know that the nobles in the capital would invite people to tea in this way. It has really opened my eyes as someone from a small place."

The man seemed taken aback by her words, and just stared at the carriage curtain without saying a word.

Gu An'an put away what she was holding and changed her posture to make herself more comfortable.

"I've been in the capital for a while now, but I've been so busy that I haven't had a chance to come out and see what's going on." As she spoke, she reached out to lift the carriage curtain, but was stopped by a hand that wasn't very fleshy.

"Manager Gu, the capital is very lively. There will be plenty of opportunities for you to see the excitement in the future. For now, it's best to sit here quietly."

Gu An'an laughed upon hearing this and withdrew her hand. "I don't know how to address this person, but do you really think you can stop me?"

The person inside the carriage stiffened upon hearing this. He saw a blur before his eyes as if something was rushing towards him. Before he could even see clearly, he felt a dull pain in his temple, and the next instant, everything went black, and he collapsed inside the carriage.

The coachman seemed surprised that something like this would happen inside.

I instinctively turned around and saw that I had also been hit, and I collapsed there limply.

Gu An'an jumped down from the carriage. "Trying to catch me? You're underestimating me!"

The entrenching tool was truly her precious little treasure, saving her once again.

Gu An'an really wanted to offer some praise, but suddenly heard a voice from behind her, "It seems Manager Gu does have some skill."

The sound made Gu An'an break out in a cold sweat instantly—

How many groups of people are targeting her?
