Lu Wan looked at Shen Yan with interest: "How do you know I can't do it? What if I get excited one day and tell it out?"
"You..." Shen Yan was interrupted by the noisy voice in front of him as soon as he finished speaking, with a hint of displeasure on his face, "What happened that made you so noisy!"
I saw a little girl in emerald green clothes kneeling in the middle of the road, her face full of fear, tears in her eyes, and her body trembling constantly. Although she was so scared, she still pulled hard on the right leg of the man in gray coarse cloth beside her, mumbling: "Please... please..."
"Hmph, begging me is useless!" The man's face was full of impatience, and he kept waving his legs to kick her out, but who would have thought that the girl would hold on so tightly that she managed to hold on and not be kicked out by him. He suddenly felt suffocated and shouted loudly to the men beside him, "What are you all standing there for?! Hurry up and pull her up!"
The men around him finally came to their senses after hearing his shout, and several of them hurried over to pull her up. Although the girl was quite strong, there was no way she could possibly be a match for several grown men. In the end, the girl was pulled up despite her reluctance.
The gray-clothed leader whose legs were just grabbed by the girl cursed a few times, spat in her face, and shouted angrily: "Bitch! You should have known it when you entered that place before. You want to escape? Is it possible? You should know the consequences! Nothing I say today can save you!"

The girl, who was held by two men, cried even harder, and said in a low voice with grievance and anxiety: "I really don't want to run away, believe me! I just..." Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted impatiently by the man in gray: "You have said this so many times, I am tired of hearing it. No matter what the reason is, it is a fact that you are leaving, and you will not escape punishment today!" qqxsnew
Because it happened in the middle of the street, everyone knew about this farce. A circle of people gathered around, looking at the strong man in gray and the weak girl and started talking about it, but no one stepped forward to plead for the girl. Everyone's attitude was to stay out of it.
Seeing this, the girl barely stopped crying. There was no light in her eyes and she looked a little disappointed. Of course she knew the consequences, but she just didn't want to accept them. She just wanted to save her grandfather, what's wrong with that? ! It's a pity that your granddaughter is about to leave, and you are sick but no one is taking care of you...
Seeing that the girl was about to be dragged into Yihong Courtyard on the side of the road to be punished, Lu Wan and Chen Yan finally couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to step in. Shen Yan stepped forward quickly and shouted, “Wait!”
Everyone's eyes were focused on Shen Yan and Lu Wan who were standing together. Lu Wan didn't care at all. He stepped forward and spoke calmly without beating around the bush: "I want this girl! Tell me, how much is the ransom?"
The man in gray glanced at Lu Wan without saying anything, but looked at Shen Yan next to her. He smiled flatteringly, bent his waist and lowered his head and said: "This gentleman..." Because Lu Wan did not dress up deliberately, she was wearing a cloth dress and did not wear any jewelry on her head. The man was an ordinary man, so how could he care about her when he saw her dress like this. But Chen Yan was different. He always wore gorgeous clothes. Although he looked dusty, his elegance could not be concealed. Even a fool could see that he was not simple. No wonder the man in gray was so respectful.
Shen Yan glanced at the man without saying anything. He just took out a bag of silver from his waist and threw it into the man's hand. The silver and money bag was bulging, and one could tell there was a lot of it without even opening it. So the man in gray didn't hesitate, and quickly ordered his men to let the girl go, then left happily. For him, exchanging a girl with no looks or talent for such a big bag of silver was a great bargain.
Lu Wan restrained his aura and became extremely gentle. She asked the girl some questions with a smile, and found out that the girl's parents had died early and she only had her grandfather to depend on. Her grandfather was old and seriously ill, but her family had no money to pay for his medical treatment. As a girl, she would be forced to be sold to a brothel if she wanted to earn money. Just now, she sneaked out to see if she could use the money she earned this month to pay for her grandfather's medical treatment, but she was discovered and dragged back to be punished.
The girl did not lie or conceal anything. In her opinion, Lu Wan and Shen Yan were her saviors and would naturally not harm her.
After hearing this, Lu Wan felt even more sorry for the girl and secretly gave Shen Yan a look. Of course Shen Yan understood, so Wen smiled and gave the girl some silver money, asking her to go back and treat her grandfather. The girl felt that the two men were really kind-hearted and kept saying thank you before leaving.
"Alas, this world is too feudal. The girl wants to save her grandfather but can only sell herself to a brothel. Is this the life of the lower class people..." Lu Wan said with emotion after the girl walked away. She had the lowest social status, but among the four classes of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, a peasant girl could also be ranked second. She did not suffer too much and her life was stable.
To Lu Wan's surprise, after she finished speaking, Shen Yan echoed her words and agreed with her. You have to know that Shen Yan is from a wealthy family. It was good enough for him not to object to these things, and he actually agreed. Lu Wan looked at him so seriously for the first time and felt that she still hadn't really recognized the man next to her.
After helping the little girl, the two continued on their way, and the grievances in Lu Wan's heart were gradually removed by Chen Yan. "Let's find an inn to stay in." Lu Wan turned to look at Chen Yan. She was so tired that her waist ached after working for so long.
Shen Yan thought so too. It wasn’t that he was tired. He could see Lu Wan’s tiredness and nodded. The two of them entered an inn, ordered two meals a day, and ordered a few dishes. "Can you eat spicy food?" Lu Wan was afraid that Chen Yan couldn't eat spicy food, so he asked him specifically. It turned out that Lu Wan liked spicy food. "Yes, it's better to have more spicy food." It happened that Chen Yan also loved spicy food. When the two of them got together, there was a table full of red dishes except white rice. When Lu Wan saw the dishes coming up, his eyes widened. Lu Wan specifically ordered the spicy boiled fish that she often ate in her previous life. When she came here, she had wanted to try it for a long time but unfortunately she never had the time.
