Later, seeing Liu Chengxi's achievements, the Liu family gradually accepted him.

I just reminded him to bring a few guards with him when he goes out.

At that time, he looked at the strong and healthy woman in the courtyard and firmly refused. In his mind, why should a man need a woman's protection?

But at this moment, facing the burly female bandit in front of him, he desperately wished someone could come to his rescue.

"Hehe, young man, just give in to me. You're still a virgin, aren't you? Don't worry, I have plenty of experience. I'll make sure you feel good."

As she spoke, the woman's rough palm covered Liu Chengxi's face. He felt as if he had been deeply humiliated and turned his head away fiercely, trying to shake off the groping hand in front of him.

To his surprise, the disparity in strength between men and women in this era exceeded his imagination. He exerted all his strength, but the woman's hand remained completely still.

Seeing that the woman's other hand had already unbuttoned his shirt and was about to reach inside his clothes, Liu Chengxi closed his eyes in despair.

"Pfft—"

The expected touch did not come. Liu Chengxi cautiously opened his eyes and saw a sword stuck in the woman's chest, the tip of the sword only an inch away from his open chest.

Pointing a blood-stained sword at him, Liu Chengxi showed no fear, but instead revealed an expression of relief at surviving a disaster.

"Young master, are you alright?"

A clear, melodious female voice rang out, and Liu Chengxi looked up, finally seeing the owner of the sword.

At that moment, the world seemed to lose its color, and only the stunningly beautiful woman before him was the only bright spot in his eyes.

"I'm fine, thank you for saving me."

As soon as he uttered the words, Liu Chengxi was stunned by his own voice. How could he make such an affected sound? How was he any different from those men who fawned over others these days?

He subconsciously straightened his face, but when he met Yun Qing's gaze, a gentle smile unconsciously appeared on his face.

Just as he was inwardly cursing himself for being so spineless, Yun Qing pulled out the sword stuck in the bandit's heart and said calmly, "It's good that you're alright."

As she spoke, she slowly took out a handkerchief from her bosom and carefully wiped the blood off the sword.

Only then did Liu Chengxi spare some attention to observe the current situation. He saw that the bandits had all been killed, and blood was everywhere. A group of guards were disposing of their bodies.

Once everything was almost ready, Yun Qing sheathed her sword and mounted her horse.

"My benefactor, please wait!"

Seeing that she was about to leave, Liu Chengxi disregarded his reserve and quickly took two steps forward to catch up. "We do not yet know the name of our benefactor. Please tell us so that we can visit you to express our gratitude another day."

"It was nothing, just a small favor. Remember to bring guards when you go out in the future, but there's no need to come to your door. If you really want to thank me, then do more good deeds."

With that, Yun Qing rode away without even turning her head.

"She's so cool." Liu Chengxi stared blankly as the beautiful figure disappeared into the distance until she could no longer see anything, then she came to her senses and looked dazed.

"Young master, young master!" His personal attendant, Liu Mian, shook his shoulders. "What should we do now?"

After this incident, Liu Chengxi decided not to continue looking at the raw materials and instead headed home.

Upon returning to the Liu family home, Liu's father and mother learned of their ordeal and were filled with lingering fear.
