Chapter 80
A passerby pointed the way for her, so she headed in that direction. Not long after she started walking, someone patted Su Guoer on the shoulder. She turned around in panic and saw a young man in tattered clothes but with bright black eyes.
"Excuse me, is this your purse?" the voice was a little rough.
He stretched out his hand, and in his hand was spinning an orange purse. It was the purse that Wen Qianxi used to match his clothes. Su Guoer recognized it at a glance.
But I didn't recognize who this person was.
She hesitated whether to answer it, thinking, maybe this man is in cahoots with the thief?
Chang Qi explained, "I just saw a man running away in a hurry, and he dropped this purse. I saw it and picked it up, but the girl who ran after him ran too fast, and I couldn't catch up, so I decided to wait for her here."
"Since I saw you asking about that girl, I assumed you were together, so I'm asking this. So, is this your purse? If not, I'll give it to the village head. If you want it, you can go get it from him."
The man turned around and was about to leave when Su Guoer quickly stopped him: "Wait, this is our purse!"
The man stopped and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? It looks like yours to me. In that case, I'll give you the purse."
"But after all, I found it. Even if I didn't do anything for it, I still worked hard. Otherwise, why don't you give me a few coins on behalf of that girl? I don't ask for much, just enough for me and my brother to buy food!"
This young man was quite frank and was very straightforward when asking for money, without any embarrassment at all.
Su Guoer was stunned by what he said, but she didn't think much about it. She turned around and took out a tael of silver from her purse and was about to put it in the young man's hand.
Unexpectedly, he watched as Wen Qianxi fiercely kicked the young man from behind: "Hey! You still have the nerve to ask for money? I think you are in cahoots with that thief, right?"
He kicked the boy in front of him several meters away. Then he looked over and saw the boy holding his kicked butt and glaring at Wen Qianxi angrily. His temper immediately flared up: "Crazy woman? Why did you kick me?" He was holding his purse in his hand and was furious.
Wen Qianxi, with a very arrogant look on his face, touched his nose and said, "Huh? You stole someone's purse and you're asking why? Why don't you go to the authorities and ask why?"
"Hey, thief! Return my purse quickly, or I'll make you pay!"
The young man got angry when he heard this and shouted, "I picked up your purse and you accused me of being a thief? Now you want it back? I think you're dreaming!"
Wen Qianxi: "You dare not give it to me? If you don't, I will beat you until you give it to me!" She put her hands on her waist and kicked him while speaking. She was extremely angry throughout the whole process. Su Guoer stood aside and didn't say a word.
Seeing that the boy was being beaten almost unilaterally, she couldn't stand it anymore and quickly stepped forward to stop him. She thought to herself, the matter hasn't been clarified yet, so I can't hit him like this.
Wen Qianxi: "Sister Guo'er, please don't stop me. This kid has a shifty look and it's obvious that he's in cahoots with that thief. Just wait, I will definitely teach him a lesson and let him know who I am!"
As he said that, he threw a left hook at the boy's face. The boy let out a wailing "Ah" and fell to the ground in an instant.
Su Guoer was frightened by what she saw. When she was about to kick him again, the boy rolled to the side and a small figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Don't hit my brother!"
Wen Qianxi was so shocked that he stopped.
At the same time, two people came up from behind, one wearing a coarse linen shirt and the other wearing a guard uniform: "What are you doing? What are you doing? Who allowed you to hit people here?"
Su Guoer just looked back and thought to herself that something was wrong.
Their actions actually attracted the guards.
The old man in coarse linen clothes saw the young man being beaten like this and immediately started wailing: "Changqi, Changqi, how are you?"
Changqi, who was beaten, lay on the ground and didn't want to talk. His adopted brother was lying on his side, hugging him and crying.
I thought: This job needs extra pay!
Then I thought: Where did this crazy woman come from?
Wen Qianxi calmed down her temper almost instantly and silently leaned towards Su Guoer. At this point, she felt that she seemed to be wrong, extremely wrong.
Later, after Su Guoer asked around, she finally found out what had happened.
The man in the guard uniform said, "Changqi is a guard here, helping us, not a thief, you are mistaken."
"That gang of thieves commits crimes here every day. We've already arrested several of them. I can assure you that this incident has absolutely nothing to do with him. He probably really found this purse, so he was waiting here for you. Who would have thought that you would come up and beat him up without any reason? Look, look at this, how he was beaten up?"
"What should we do? Tell me. We can't have someone pick up the purse, not only fail to return it, but also get beaten up?"
The man in guard uniform spoke righteously, and at the end he took out the token of his city guard department and showed it to them, which proved that he was a real official.
Wen Qianxi was dumbfounded.
Su Guoer could only bite the bullet and step forward and say, "It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. My sister... her hands are a bit quick, and she has been practicing martial arts since she was young. She didn't know how hard to hit the boy and beat him like this."
"But we will be responsible. How about this? Let's ask a doctor to check his injuries first. Don't worry, we will pay for all subsequent consultations. In addition, I will definitely bring my sister and gifts to apologize in person one day! Just rest assured."
The young man's younger brother, Changfeng, said, "That's easy for you to say. My mother is still bedridden, and my brother was counting on working in the city to earn money. Now he's injured like this? How will I pay for my mother's medicine? What will happen to my brother if he can't work for such a long time?"
After hearing this, Su Guoer said hurriedly: "Don't worry about this. We will cover all the expenses for your mother's medicine and your brother's medical treatment until your brother recovers. If, if..."
Changfeng: "Brother has been seriously injured and has developed a chronic illness. How can he be a boat tracker in the future? You have cut off our family's path! Mother, your son is so pitiful. Your son has been bullied!"
As he spoke, he burst into tears.
The official and the head of the village also echoed: "I watched these two brothers grow up. Our family was really in financial difficulty. Now they are like this, alas!..." The head of the village sighed.
The whole family relies on Changqi to do hard labor to earn money to support the family.
Wen Qianxi's face turned pale when he heard this.
Having practiced martial arts since childhood, she naturally knew what this meant. If her foundation was not good, she would be unable to do heavy physical labor. Even if she wanted to recruit someone to join the escort agency to escort with her, this person might not be able to do it.
Even with all the injuries he had, he still couldn't beat the other people in the escort agency even after he recovered.
She almost cut off the other party's path.
