If it weren't for this person interfering, the tasks assigned to the building would have been completed long ago!

Could Xu Jinhuan be in the same profession as him?

Xu Jinhuan tied Song Shulan's hands behind her back and said with a smile, "Who else could I be? Of course, I'm Xu Jinhuan, who was implicated by the Xu family and exiled!"

Song Shulan sneered, "If you don't want to talk, then don't. I'm not one of those easily fooled bailiffs."

Then she raised her head, looking resigned, and said, "Kill me if you want, I won't say anything."

Li Yichang and Ma Wencai exchanged a glance in the crowd.

Hey, why does this sound so familiar? It's like they just said it not long ago, but unfortunately they were all proven wrong, and their faces are still sore!

Let's mourn for Madam Xiang. Of all people to offend, she had to mess with that crazy woman, Xu Jinhuan!

Xu Jinhuan narrowed her eyes and poked Song Shulan's Adam's apple, which she tried to hide but which became more noticeable under the rain. She chuckled softly.

"So you're a man dressed as a woman? I'm getting more and more curious about who's behind you."

After Xu Jinhuan finished speaking, he cleanly and decisively dislocated Song Shulan's jaw to prevent her from hiding poison in her teeth in preparation for suicide.

"Big Head, dislocate Xiang Linsheng's jaw too. We finally caught this spy, we can't let him die like this."

As Xu Jin laughed and joked freely in the heavy rain, Xiang Linsheng and Song Shulan were just as frustrated. They had indeed underestimated their opponent this time.

"Big Head, put shackles and chains on all these people. I'll personally watch them climb the mountain."

Xu Jinhuan glanced at the three people Xiang Linsheng had implicated, and at Xu Youyou cowering on the other side, a hint of cruelty in his smile.

Since they're all so disobedient, let's just enjoy the itinerary she's arranged for us.

"Splash, whoosh"

Climbing a mountain in the rain is already difficult enough, but now these people have their hands shackled and their feet chained, so they can only maintain their balance by twisting their hips, making their walk both clumsy and difficult.

Unfortunately, Xu Jinhuan was always watching them closely, and anyone who slowed down even a little bit would be whipped.

A freshly inflamed wound, coupled with the constant, icy rain—the feeling is indescribable…

Except for those few who were punished, the rest of the climb went relatively smoothly, and they made it to the bandits' lair despite the rain.

The men, still bound by shackles, didn't have time to check their surroundings or care about the puddles on the ground. Exhausted, they sat down on the cold, icy ground, panting heavily.

He secretly harbored a little figure named Xu Jinhuan in his heart, and his curses were a string of different ones.

Xie Datou kicked the person in the way with disgust, then looked around with surprise, "Boss, this place is not bad, there are at least twenty rooms, enough for us to stay in."

Xu Jinhuan smiled and nodded, then said to Ma Wencai beside him.

“I remember you said there are still people here. You and Da Tou go and call them out. We'll go to the biggest room and wait for you.”

Before Ma Wencai could reply, the door of one of the rooms opened, and a girl wearing a raincoat with black birthmarks on half of her face walked out of the room.

Upon seeing so many strangers standing outside, her first reaction was to be wary, and she pulled a kitchen knife from her raincoat.

"Who are you people, and what do you want here?"

Fearing that the silly girl might upset Xu Jinhuan, Ma Wencai immediately waved his hand and said, "Dani, I'm here. Don't be afraid. These are all good people."

Liu Dani twitched the kitchen knife in her hand slightly, but did not put it down immediately.

She looked at Xie Datou and the others warily, then asked loudly, "Brother Wencai, where are Erhu and the others? Are these people trying to coerce you? Don't be afraid, I have a knife."

Liu Dani's protectiveness warmed Ma Wencai's heart, yet also brought him a bittersweet feeling.

He was willing to risk his life for a wild girl he picked up along the way, but his brothers who had risked their lives for him abandoned him when he was injured.

Ma Wencai rubbed his eyes and explained with a smile, "Da Ni, it's not what you think. Look, this is my new boss, and he'll be your boss from now on. Come and get to know him."

Liu Dani walked over with some doubt, but she didn't put the kitchen knife back in her hand. It seemed that she was ready to fight to the death at the slightest provocation.

Ma Wencai smiled and took the kitchen knife from her hand, then introduced it to Xu Jinhuan: "Boss Xu, this is our village's head chef. Her skills are top-notch. Let her show you her skills today."

After saying that, he introduced Xu Jinhuan to Liu Dani.

"Da Ni, this is Boss Xu, Xu Jinhuan. Not only is she skilled in martial arts, but she's also very smart. We'll follow her from now on. Quick, call her Boss."

Liu Dani carefully observed the expression on Ma Wencai's face and realized that he was indeed serious, which made her lower her guard.

"Hello, Mr. Xu. My name is Liu Dani. I was picked up by Brother Wencai. He said I have a talent for cooking, so he let me stay and be his cook."

"What would you like to eat, Boss Xu? I'll make it for you in a bit!"

Xu Jinhuan looked at the simple and honest Liu Dani in front of him, smiled and nodded, "Dani, you don't need to go to too much trouble, just make some of your signature dishes."

Looking at Xu Laoda, who was smiling so beautifully in front of her, Liu Dani couldn't help but smile as well. Hehe, Xu Laoda is really good-looking. Just looking at her makes me want to eat two more bowls of rice.

Ma Wencai was speechless when he saw Liu Dani's infatuated expression. Why did this silly girl have to do this in front of the boss? Doesn't she know how important first impressions are?

"Da Ni, hurry up and check what dishes are left in the kitchen, and study the recipes carefully!"
