"N-nothing..."
Yang Niannian hurriedly looked away, thinking to herself, "Brother Xiao Yu has really returned to normal. He can even notice me peeking at him now?"
Previously, Xiao Yu's reaction was very slow... But what does "handsome" mean?
"Let's go quickly, we can't stay here any longer," Xiao Yu said.
Now that we know the waters around Baoyue Tower are treacherous, we can't stay here too long. Madam Lin has already escaped; she might have gone to warn us.
Where are we going?
Yang Niannian understood Xiao Yu's meaning, and her little face was filled with worry.
"Of course, I'm going home!"
Big Fool said it all in a matter-of-fact tone.
"..."
Xiao Yu looked at Da Sha as if he were an idiot, which was indeed the kind of thing that came out of someone with his low IQ.
"Go to Prince Xiao's residence."
Xiao Yu patiently explained to Da Sha, "Even after you go home, they can still come to your house to cause trouble and bring Niannian back!"
After saying that, he turned to look at Yang Niannian and asked, "Tell me exactly what happened."
"Um."
Yang Niannian nodded gently and told Xiao Yu the whole story as she walked.
Three days ago, Yang Niannian took Da Sha out to buy rice, and then they met a young master surnamed Liu...
"He said he was the nephew of Duke Liu, named Liu Yunfei," Yang Niannian said softly.
When Liu Yunfei saw Yang Niannian, his eyes lit up and he exclaimed in surprise, "Tsk, what a beauty! Judging from her clothes, she doesn't seem to come from a good family."
With a quick glance, Liu Yunfei pulled out a silver ingot from his sleeve... a silver ingot weighing a full ten taels.
"Young lady, come with me to the restaurant for a few drinks, and this silver ingot is yours, how about it?"
Liu Yunfei waved the silver ingot in front of Yang Niannian, looking confident, and chuckled, "This silver ingot is not only enough for you to buy rice, but also enough for you to eat and drink well."
"I don't want to!"
Startled, Yang Niannian took a few steps back and hid behind Da Sha.
Unfortunately, Da Sha hadn't figured out what was going on and actually asked, "Who are you? Why are you buying us drinks and giving us money? We don't know you."
In Da Sha's mind, he only remembered that his parents had taught him that he should not take things that did not belong to him!
"Turns out he's a complete idiot."
Seeing Da Sha's serious expression and his genuinely simple-minded look, Liu Yunfei frowned and asked, "What is your relationship with this little beauty?"
Hopefully, it's not a beautiful flower stuck in cow dung.
"I'm Niannian's older brother," Da Sha said in a simple and honest manner.
"So the little beauty's name is Nian Nian... Little beauty, what's your full name?"
Upon hearing that the two were just siblings, Liu Yunfei was finally relieved. His lecherous eyes lingered on Yang Niannian, and he grew increasingly fond of her.
Although this little beauty was dressed very plainly... even impoverished, with several patches on her clothes.
But she has a beautiful face and delicate features. Her big, beautiful eyes seem to speak volumes, and her long eyelashes make her already beautiful eyes even more expressive.
Looking at the little beauty's figure, although she is very thin, she has plenty of curves in the right places, with obvious curves in her chest, waist, and hips.
"Brother, don't talk to him, he's not a good person."
Yang Niannian grabbed Da Sha and said, "Let's go quickly, don't pay any attention to him!"
After saying that, he grabbed Da Sha and tried to leave.
Liu Yunfei laughed a few times. As the duchy's own nephew, how could he take two ordinary people seriously?
He immediately went over and grabbed Yang Niannian's wrist, saying with a smile, "Niannian, don't go! I didn't mean any harm, I just wanted you to have a few drinks with me!"
"Please let me go!"
Yang Niannian trembled with fear, tears welling in her eyes, and she pulled her arm back forcefully.
But her wrist was held firmly and she couldn't pull it back at all.
"Ha ha ha ha."
Liu Yunfei laughed loudly. He found Yang Niannian's tearful appearance even more amusing. Just as he was about to continue teasing her, a fist the size of a sandbag suddenly punched him in the face.
"Bang!"
When Da Sha saw his sister being bullied, he punched Liu Yunfei hard in the face.
Liu Yunfei never expected this simpleton to dare hit him. He didn't even have time to react or sense it. He just felt a darkness before his eyes, felt his nose was crooked, and sat down on the ground with a thud.
He covered the blood flowing from his nose and roared angrily, "Damn it, this big idiot dares to hit me? Does he even know that I am Liu Yunfei, the nephew of the Duke of Liu!"
"What did you say?"
Da Sha didn't understand and asked seriously, "I didn't hear you clearly, please say it again."
"Brother, we've gotten ourselves into trouble."
Yang Niannian's pretty face had turned deathly pale. She bit her lip and finally decided, "Brother, let's go quickly and go home!"
They were just ordinary people; how could they possibly offend the Duke's nephew?
To survive, the only option is to leave the capital and escape to another place… Yang Niannian thought to herself.
Their parents have passed away, and they have no roots in the capital. They only regret that they will never see their silly brother Xiao Yu again!
"Brother Xiao Yu is quite clever; he often makes me laugh in his clumsy way."
Yang Niannian thought to herself, feeling a pang of heartache, "I heard that Brother Xiao Yu's father and elder brother both died in battle. He hasn't come to visit us for several days. I wonder if he's still grieving..."
With her mind a jumble of thoughts, Yang Niannian dragged Da Sha back home, preparing to pack her belongings and flee the capital.
Before they could escape, Liu Yunfei and his men had already caught up with them.
"Trying to run? Not so easy."
Liu Yunfei, leading seven or eight of his men, blocked the doorway and sneered, "You dare hit me? You really don't know the meaning of death! Damn it, although I don't make a living off my looks, I'm still a top-notch handsome man. You idiot, you dare to hit my face? I'll tear you to pieces!"
Then he sent his men in.
Unexpectedly, Da Sha was guarding the door, holding a sturdy wooden stick, knocking on each person who came by!
Each blow was delivered with extreme force, each aimed directly at the head.
The henchmen who were beaten by Big Fool all had their heads smashed open, bleeding profusely...
This one-man defense immediately intimidated the rest of the group, and they dared not rush in any further.
"We'll guard the entrance and wear them down."
Liu Yunfei said through gritted teeth.
For the next period of time, this group of people took turns guarding the door, waiting for Da Sha and Yang Niannian to come out on their own initiative.
There was almost no food in the house, and after three days, the two of them were so hungry that they had no strength left.
Knowing that things couldn't continue like this, Yang Niannian touched her belly, then looked at her brother's rumbling stomach, and could only make a decision...
