"Lord Liu must have other matters to attend to, so I won't bother you any longer!" Shen Jiaojiao didn't want to stay any longer and turned to leave.
He completely ignored the woman.
"Young master! I should repay your life-saving grace with my body. I am willing to go with you!" Liu Shasha's voice was soft and weak, with a seductive tone.
Shen Jiaojiao was too lazy to even curse, and quickened her pace to leave.
"Stop right there! Who gave you permission to leave?"
Seeing that the other party wouldn't respond to his soft approach, Liu Fugui decided to resort to force.
Shen Jiaojiao regained her footing, and her anger flared up immediately!
Just because I'm not showing my teeth doesn't mean I'm a pushover.
Since there was no one around, it was a perfect opportunity for me to cause trouble.
Shen Jiaojiao turned around and walked back quickly.
Liu Fugui was secretly pleased when he saw this; this time, he had the cat out of the bag!
After all, he was the city lord, and everyone understood that being sensible would save him from suffering.
He grinned: "That's more like it! Hahaha, my daughter is also beautiful, a perfect match for you just now... I'm yelling! Ah!... What are you doing! Ah!"
Shen Jiaojiao hasn't hit anyone in a long time.
Liu Fugui was soaking wet and pale, and Shen Jiaojiao didn't listen to anything he was saying.
He grabbed her by the collar and slapped her several times in the groin.
When he stopped, Liu Fugui's face was already red.
"What are you doing? Why are you hitting me for no reason!" Liu Fugui's eyes were red. "I didn't even lay a hand on you, how could you do this?"
Shen Jiaojiao did not answer his question.
"So noisy!"
The pavilion happened to be right by the water, and while he was still stunned, Shen Jiaojiao kicked it.
It was kicked down, but didn't fall.
Chu Tianling quickly ran over and added another kick.
"ordinary!"
"Ah! This is outrageous!" Liu Fugui cried out weakly, but he was still mercilessly kicked down.
The maid and Liu Shasha huddled together in terror, shrinking into a corner. Neither of them expected that the other, who was so handsome, would be such a scoundrel.
Seeing the other person turn around and look at her, Liu Shasha forced herself to remain calm: "Um, young master, since you hit my father, you can't hit me! If you want to hit me, wait until he climbs up. He's very healthy, he won't get hurt. You can hit him however you want."
Shen Jiaojiao chuckled. This daughter must have been adopted, she said something so funny.
Chu Tianling took her hand, and the two swaggered away.
Liu Fugui struggled helplessly in the water, and after finally managing to climb out, the two culprits had already left.
"Guards! Guards! Seize them! Ah!"
Liu Fugui was furious and impotent. He walked and shouted, truly enraged. His anger had consumed his reason. He didn't care about official positions anymore; he was determined to vent his anger today.
Liu Shasha and her maid quietly kept a low profile, perfectly avoiding a minor crisis.
After the furious Lord Liu left, Liu Shasha sat up abruptly, grabbed her maid, and secretly left the mansion.
That young master was really cool when he hit someone; I need to go and report it to him to improve my chances of getting his attention.
Shen Jiaojiao and her companion left the mansion and immediately headed towards the city gate, having agreed to meet there the previous night.
I wonder how they are doing today.
Arriving at the gate from a great distance, I indeed saw a group of people waiting there.
Unexpectedly, the carriage and goods that were taken away were found and returned.
Zhou Tianqi had already raised his hand to greet them when Ning Caichen suddenly appeared from the side, smiling as if he were dodging a flower as he took a few steps forward to say hello.
"My lord, you're back! I've completed all the tasks you gave me yesterday, hehe!"
Shen Jiaojiao felt a pang of dissonance seeing a scholar display such an almost fawning demeanor.
"Hmm, well done, let's get going!" Chu Tianling said calmly.
He was worried that the girl surnamed Liu, who was hungry, would come after him, so he planned to leave as soon as possible.
Shen Jiaojiao asked, "How is Dazhuang? Has he seen a doctor? And have the other brothers all recovered?"
Just as Zhou Tianqi was about to speak, Ning Caichen immediately jumped in and said eagerly, "Oh! Brother Dazhuang was taken to see a doctor last night and given some medicine. He's lying in the carriage in the back now. The doctor said to rest more. The other brothers are much better, so it won't affect the journey."
This natural ease suggests that he has already considered himself a part of it.
Shen Jiaojiao glanced at him, then asked Zhou Tianqi, "Is that so?"
Zhou Tianqi nodded, feeling frustrated. He had already said everything, so he had nothing more to say and could only reply, "Yes, that's right!"
Shen Jiaojiao glanced at the carriage behind her, and Ning Caichen immediately led the way: "My lord, this way, I'll take you to see Brother Dazhuang."
Although he only just learned the name, as a competent subordinate, he was already quite adept at calling Brother Dazhuang by that name.
Shen Jiaojiao felt that this person had some of Da Zhuang's sycophantic traits and was very shrewd.
Upon reaching the carriage, he warmly pulled back the curtain: "Brother Dazhuang, your master has come to see you."
Dazhuang was badly beaten, his body and face were covered in injuries, and his face was covered with a thick layer of black ointment, making him look like a modern woman applying a mud mask.
Dazhuang was the first to see the man who had traumatized him, and the memories of his death began to attack him.
Before he could get excited, the other person withdrew their head, revealing Shen Jiaojiao and Chu Tianling's heads.
Reason slowly returned.
"Dazhuang, how are you feeling?"
"Reporting to you, sir, I'm much better. They're just superficial injuries. I'll rest in the carriage for a couple of days and I'll be fine." Having finally managed to get out of the city, I certainly can't go back.
