After the meal, Ma Zhaoshi led the group to an antique street.

"Let's go in and take a look. A few days ago, someone found an artifact from the previous dynasty here and made a fortune. Let's try our luck."

Upon hearing the word "get rich," everyone became excited.

This street runs east-west, facing the main road. At the entrance is a tall archway with the words "Qingshui Antique Street" written on it.

The street is wide, with shops on both sides and a row of stalls against the wall.

The stalls displayed antique or exquisite porcelain, rusty bronzes, ironware, coins, wood carvings, jade, ancient books, and paintings... all bearing the marks of history, making it impossible to distinguish the genuine from the fake.

Many people lingered at the stalls with eager eyes, dreaming of finding real treasures.

The four of them looked at each stall with great interest, and the colorful items were dazzling.

“Baozhu, what do you think of this piece of jade?” Sun Xingyan pointed to a jade carving on a stall.

It looked like a piece of smooth, oily mutton fat jade, carved into the shape of a kitten, which was very vivid and cute.

"Is it true?" Ma Zhaoshi peeked out from behind Sun Xingyan.

"Absolutely true, you can take it to a jade shop and ask." The stall owner was very enthusiastic, judging from the group's attire.

Xia Baozhu glanced at it; the kitten was cute, but it wasn't her type.

Let's take a look around first.

Although she had seen many genuine antiques, distinguishing between real and fake ones was still quite difficult for her.

Sun Xingyan's gaze swept over the ancient books and paintings. Although he was playful, he had put in the effort to study calligraphy and paintings.

Lu Qianqian joined in the fun, but she was the poorest among them and couldn't afford to buy what she wanted.

However, she regretted not bringing Chen Lu with her. Seeing Xia Baozhu being carefully protected by Sun Xingyan, she felt envious and choked with envy.

With Chen Lu around, even though he's a bit of a tomboy, he can at least alleviate her symptoms.

Ma Zhaoshi, who was also choking on the dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection), tried his best not to look at the two people. Looking at them was like eating a mouthful of egg yolk, leaving him feeling stuck and unable to swallow.

He's currently single, but he can't rush into finding a girlfriend.

Just then, Ma Zhaoshi was patted on the shoulder. He turned around and saw his ex-ex-ex-girlfriend, Nie Meihua.

It was Nie Meihua who scratched his face during their breakup.

Ma Zhaoshi no longer envied other people's girlfriends; the playboy's face suddenly turned cold: "What is it?"

"You've changed girlfriends again?" Nie Meihua looked at Lu Qianqian and questioned Ma Zhaoshi with a hint of anger.

She still harbors resentment towards Ma Zhaoshi for breaking up with her.

"What's it to you?" Ma Zhaoshi said dismissively, turning and walking away.

"Don't go!" Nie Meihua quickly grabbed Ma Zhaoshi's clothes.

When she met this carefree man again, she realized that she still loved him and was emotionally affected by his actions.

The thought that he had a girlfriend again ignited a fire of anger within her.

"Stop pulling and tugging in public," Ma Zhaoshi said impatiently, shaking off Nie Meihua's hand.

Watching Ma Zhaoshi's antics, Sun Xingyan chuckled and said to Xia Baozhu, "I told him before not to mess around. Look, this is what happens."

Xia Baozhu saw several people walking towards Nie Meihua: "Brother Ma is really in trouble."

She took two steps forward and came to a spot not far from Ma Zhaoshi.

Although Lu Qianqian was somewhat annoyed at being wrongly accused of being Ma Zhaoshi's girlfriend, she found it quite amusing to see Ma Zhaoshi being harassed by his ex-girlfriend.

She was just enjoying some local food when trouble struck.

"Hey sis, what's wrong? Did this kid upset you?"

The man who came was Nie Meihua's adopted brother, a manager at a nightclub with a few underlings. They were here to have some fun today.

These people are not afraid of causing trouble.

"Yes, Brother Leopard, this guy just touched me."

The godbrother and godsister also have an ambiguous relationship. Nie Meihua can't tell Brother Leopard that she still has feelings for him, so she can only make up a false accusation against Ma Zhaoshi to teach him a lesson.

Upon hearing this, Xia Baozhu took out a mask, pulled down her scarf, and put it on.

Seeing her actions, Sun Xingyan quickly advised, "Baozhu, Brother Ma is quite good at fighting, so you shouldn't go."

He didn't want Xia Baozhu to get hurt; it would definitely hurt a lot if she were accidentally hit.

"We'll see." Xia Baozhu glanced coldly at Brother Leopard and his five men. Two of them had bulging arms, which she suspected contained knives.

Ma Zhaoshi has been very attentive to the two of them these past few days; he is a very good friend.

She couldn't just stand by and watch him get beaten up; besides, fighting was easier for her than filming.

"Nie Meihua, you dare say that again? What makes you so special that I could touch you?"

Ma Zhaoshi's disdainful words pierced Nie Meihua like a knife. She angrily punched Ma Zhaoshi, but was pushed back two steps by Ma Zhaoshi, her eyes turning red.

"This kid's got a death wish, brothers, let's teach him a lesson!"

Leopard Brother twisted his neck, clasped his hands together, and made a cracking sound.

Then he pulled Nie Meihua aside, "Little sister, stand aside, let your brother teach him a lesson!"

"Thank you, Brother Leopard."

At this moment, Nie Meihua's love turned to hatred, and she gritted her teeth and said, "I must beat his filthy mouth to a pulp!"

Lu Qianqian was stunned. She hadn't expected this woman who had suddenly appeared to have accomplices. Would she get beaten up?

"What should we do, Brother Sun?" She hurriedly looked at Sun Xingyan, hoping he would come and help.

"It's okay, Qianqian, move to the back." Xia Baozhu pulled Lu Qianqian behind her.

Looking at Xia Baozhu's still calm expression, Lu Qianqian felt that Xia Baozhu's image had instantly become much more impressive.

Both women were panicked and terrified, but Sister Xia remained calm and composed—she was so cool!

Leopard's four henchmen formed a half-circle behind him, with two of them putting their hands inside their clothes.

The onlookers quickly retreated a great distance, leaving only the two groups behind.

The owners of nearby stalls sighed as they packed up their stalls, putting the fragile items at the back, looking quite experienced.

When Ma Zhaoshi saw that Sun Xingyan and Xia Baozhu had not left, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

Leopard threw a punch with fierce force. Ma Zhaoshi dodged it and at the same time extended his own fist, which quickly landed on Leopard's chest.

Even through the thick cotton coat, Brother Leopard still felt a surge of pain.

Hearing the sound of a punch from behind, Ma Zhaoshi slid to the side.

"Let's go help." Xia Baozhu pulled her hand away from Sun Xingyan's.

She took two steps forward and gently kicked Leopard Brother, who had his back to her, in the shin.

After he fell to the ground, they kicked him aside, which tripped one of his underlings. The two of them rolled around twice like gourds.

This shows how much force Xia Baozhu used when she kicked.
