Chapter 62: No Damage at All
Gu Yuexuan subconsciously hid behind Tu Subo, as if she had found a solid shelter. She pointed angrily at the people chasing her and shouted, "It's them! It's them!"
"Tu Subo, hurry up!"
"Teach them a lesson!"
"Beat him to death! Give him a good lesson!"
Tu Subo was almost knocked off balance at that moment. His mind was in a daze and he had no time to figure out the situation.
But the power of the subconscious mind transcends reason.
He quickly stuffed something into Gu Yuexuan's hand, then walked towards the most arrogant villain with a grim face and kicked him with such force that even the air seemed to vibrate.
Gu Yuexuan watched in amazement as the thug was kicked far away, and subconsciously held the items in her hands tightly.
At the moment when Tu Subo swung his iron fist at Scarface and broke his front teeth, she was still immersed in the fantasy of the exquisite sugar man in her hand.
How could Tu Subo have a sugar man?
As soon as she raised her eyes, she caught the most exciting scene: Tu Subo was fighting against six people alone, bare-handed.
The gang of thugs led by Scarface were helpless against his iron fists. They screamed in pain and tried desperately to escape.
Seeing this, Gu Yuexuan hurriedly shouted, "Don't let them get away!"
A hint of coldness flashed across Tu Subo's handsome face. Following two crisp cracking sounds, Gu Yuexuan asked doubtfully, "Is that the sound of bones breaking?"
Looking at Scarface's extremely twisted arm, was it twisted off?
Tu Subo's eyes glared at the people tumbling on the ground, his tone still as calm as usual: "You heard wrong, that's not it."
"Really?"
Gu Yuexuan smacked her lips suspiciously, then waved the candy figurine in her hand and ran briskly to Tu Subo's side. She fiercely kicked the scarred man on the ground and said, "Hand over all the money you have! If anyone dares to hide a penny, I'll smash your pig's head!"
"hurry up!"
Isn't it just a robbery?
She’s equally good at it!
Under the intimidation of Tu Subo's powerful aura, those unlucky guys whose bones were broken dared not resist. Like a group of cowardly turtles, they lay on the ground and began to search for money.
However, although they are numerous, they are all short of money.
Gu Yuexuan glanced at the meager amount of silver in Tu Subo's hand, less than an ounce of loose change, rolled her eyes in disdain, and said sarcastically, "Isn't this what they call robbery? Didn't you keep asking me to ask my brother to take you to have some fun?"
"How does it feel now? Do you still want to take me to have fun?"
When Tu Subo heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes. He glanced meaningfully at the scum who were begging on the ground, held Gu Yuexuan's wrist tightly, and skillfully stuffed a candy man into her mouth, which was hesitant to speak.
"Um?"
Gu Yuexuan was suddenly filled with a sweet taste in her throat and blinked in confusion.
Does this give me a taste of sweetness?
Tu Subo lowered his head slightly and replied softly, "I've driven the mule cart outside. Please go out and help watch over it. Don't let anyone take advantage of the opportunity to steal the things."
The anger and resentment in Gu Yuexuan's heart were still burning.
She spit out the sugar man and said helplessly, "But..."
"Xuanxuan, be good."
Tu Subo's large palm gently rubbed her messy hair, and said in a hoarse and gentle voice: "Go out and wait for me. Okay?"
Gu Yuexuan turned the corner lightly, and as soon as her head appeared, a big, young hand appeared in front of her eyes like a shadow.
"Didn't I ask you to wait for me outside? Why did you come back?"
Gu Yuexuan's eyes were covered. In the pitch darkness, she instinctively grasped Tu Subo's clothes. The candy figurine in her mouth made her words sound a little unclear: "You...you didn't beat that man too hard, did you? I tell you, murder is a serious crime..."
"Be careful with your words."
Tu Subo ignored her attempts to break free, firmly grasped her shoulders, and turned her around. His palm gently supported the back of her head, preventing her from looking back. "It was just a slight delay going back to get the things you forgot, but there was no conflict."
When he finally let go of her hand, Gu Yuexuan had already been led out of the dark alley by him.
She stood on tiptoe, glanced back the way she had come, and muttered uncertainly, "Isn't this going to bring any trouble?"
"What harm could there be?"
Tu Subo rubbed her head and said calmly but firmly, "They are just some insignificant insects. Even if they die in the gutter, no one will pay attention."
Gu Yuexuan pondered for a moment, and then Tu Subo turned around in front of her as if he was holding a chicken.
"How are you?"
"Are you hurt?"
"No." Her voice trembled slightly, as if she was moved by this concern.
Gu Yuexuan waved away the hands that tried to grab her sleeve to help her stand up. Tears welled up in her eyes, but a bitter smile involuntarily appeared on the corner of her mouth: "I am very strong and I am not hurt at all."
"Didn't you just swear that the mule cart had arrived here? I looked everywhere for it, but I couldn't find any trace of it."
Her gaze drifted to the street corner, where order was gradually returning. A hint of strangeness lingered in her tone, "Could it really have been secretly abducted? My luck today is truly terrible."
After confirming that she was safe and sound, Tu Subo secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly without changing his expression, "Maybe I remembered it wrongly."
"Ah?"
"I suppose I didn't lead the mule cart this far."
Tu Subo gently nudged the back of her head again, urging her to keep going: "Let's get going quickly, otherwise we'll never come back."
However, it turned out that the concerns about loss were completely unnecessary.
After finding the mule cart temporarily placed at the back door of Taibai Building, Gu Yuexuan began to carefully count the items on the cart.
Tu Subo was ruthless in his actions but thoughtful. Thanks to him, nothing was missing from the car, and there was even an unexpected extra eight cents of silver.
But when she thought about the possible illegal source of the silver, Gu Yuexuan felt uncomfortable.
"This money came from unknown sources. Only after we squander it all can it truly belong to us."
"How about we make some good use of it and then move on?"
Upon hearing this, Tu Subo's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a smile.
"Or, I'll buy you some sweets so you can enjoy them?"
Gu Yuexuan shook her head slowly, a hint of sweetness lingering at the corners of her lips, her brows slightly furrowed.
"Forget it, forget it. If I try those cakes again, I'm afraid they'll be too sweet to suffocate me."
"Go to the fabric store and buy some more muslin."
There are so many people in the family that the budget given by the old lady is really not enough to meet everyone's needs.
Gu Yuexuan had already anticipated that the amount of fabric purchased with that budget would be limited when allocated to each person, and Tu Subo would definitely be excluded.
Thinking that Tu Subo only had two sets of clothes to wear alternately, she couldn't help feeling sad, so she decided to take him with her.
