30 Rape a Man
◎Chop off the claws and use them as snacks◎
Song Jinyi was holding the token given to her by Zhang, a string of gilded copper coins with a vermilion tassel hanging from the bottom, symbolizing the good fortune of attracting wealth and treasure.
She hung the pendant around her waist, hoping that she could own a restaurant of her own like the owner of this restaurant in the future.
Song Jinyi and Xie Wuyang wandered around the huge Shengjing City for a while until the white clouds in the sky turned into dark clouds.
The rainstorm that had been accumulating for a long time in the high sky suddenly pounced down like a wild beast in the wilderness, and raindrops as big as beans fell from the sky.
The rain came with lightning speed. Song Jinyi was standing with nothing to block her view. When she raised her head, she was drenched in the rain.
Song Jinyi used her hands to shield the rain, but her arms, as thin as bamboo poles, were of no use. Suddenly, the rain seemed to have subsided. She looked up and saw that it was Xie Wuyang who took off his coat and shielded her from the rain.
Song Jinyi looked up at Xie Wuyang's face from below, watching his golden hair get wet by the rain and curl around his cheeks, and his emerald green eyes become more dazzling under the rain.
At some point, Xie Wuyang became as tall as her.
Song Jinyi looked around and pulled Xie Wuyang towards a tall building on the street.
Song Jinyi regretted her decision as she ran. During the run, her exposed skin was beaten by the rain, and her clothes, shoes and socks were already soaked. She felt like she was going to drown in the rain.
Really embarrassing.
Song Jinyi ran in the rain for a while and found a place to shelter from the rain. She climbed the stairs and saw a huge round platform in the front hall from afar. Only then did she realize that it was not a restaurant, but a theater.
The girl who came up to her was younger than her, about the same age as Song Yunting. She had two small buns on her head and smiled sweetly. She came up to her and said, "Would you like some tea, ma'am?"
Song Jinyi paused and said, "The rain came unexpectedly, so I'd like to borrow a place to take shelter. Is it convenient?"
The girl in yellow noticed Song Jinyi's uneasiness and said with a smile, "Most people coming in now are here to avoid the rain, so feel free to come in, madam."
The maid led them to a private room on the second floor and took out two dry towels.
Song Jinyi took off her wet coat, shoes and socks and put them on the shelf beside her. She wiped the wet parts of her body with a sweat towel. Seeing the woman in yellow staring at her and Xie Wuyang with slightly red cheeks, she asked curiously: What's wrong?
The girl in yellow said shyly, "Is this your husband? He's so handsome!"
It was the first time Song Jinyi heard someone say this, and her brain seemed to be rusted, so she couldn't refute it immediately. By the time she reacted and denied it, the girl in yellow had already run away.
She could only look at Xie Wuyang with a little embarrassment, and saw that Xie Wuyang's expression was very strange, not angry or embarrassed, but... shy.
His ears were tinted pink, his eyes blinked, and he turned his head away, embarrassed to look at her.
She blinked and looked twice in disbelief, afraid it was just her illusion.
Downstairs, someone was singing an opera, and upstairs, Song Jinyi was drinking the hot water provided for free by the opera house. She wondered what the girl in yellow said. Why did she think that?
She felt embarrassed and wanted to dig her toes into the ground. Xie Wuyang seemed much calmer than her. He acted as if nothing had happened and was blowing the hot water with his eyes downcast.
Xie Wuyang took a sip of hot tea and suddenly felt something. His eyes quickly looked towards the opposite stands like an eagle's claws.
He stared at a certain spot until he saw a figure walking out of the inner room opposite him.
Xie Wuyang stood up quickly, said hello to Song Jinyi and went out.
He went down the stairs and walked through the hall, and came to the narrow passage behind the theater. He walked forward along the narrow passage, and halfway through he looked back thoughtfully. He stopped and inadvertently pinched the hard object hidden in his sleeve.
The narrow alley looked only as thick as a finger from a distance. The eaves on both sides blocked half of the sudden rain. Leaning against the wall could barely keep my back from getting wet. The rain wet the blue-gray bricks and stones, and the air was filled with the smell of decay and dampness.
After coming out from the back of the theater, Xie Wuyang did not follow the instructions of the girl in yellow to go to the toilet, but walked to the other side along the corner of the wall. After walking about ten steps, he saw a faint light in front of him.
Looking closely, it was an exit connected to the street market. He was walking slowly, as if waiting for someone.
Halfway down the narrow alley, he suddenly stopped and said coldly, "Come out!"
A faint echo echoed in the quiet alley, but there was no other movement. Xie Wuyang waited patiently until someone jumped down from the roof behind him.
Xie Wuyang turned around and looked at the person who came vigilantly. The feeling on his body was completely different from before. He folded his hands behind his back, touched the stiff dagger on his sleeve, and stared at the person who came with cold eyes.
He had felt that someone was watching him when he was in Juxing Tower, so he deliberately led Song Jinyi into the restaurant for dinner. Unexpectedly, the other party did not show up. Now, because of hiding from the rain, the other party occasionally entered the theater. The other party deliberately gestured from the opposite side of the theater, so he followed over to find out what was going on.
The people following him were wearing the clothes of the Great Xia, but their faces, pupils, hair, etc. were all different from those of the Xia people. Their pupils were a very light brown, and their dark brown hair was mixed with a few khaki hairs, which made them look somewhat similar to Xie Wuyang.
The man looked at Xie Wuyang carefully, then suddenly took a step and walked towards Xie Wuyang.
Xie Wuyang stopped him and asked in Xirong language, "Who are you? Why are you following me?!"
The man paused, his lips moving.
Xie Wuyan's eyes dimmed slightly, his sharp eyes fixed on the man. He had been hunted all the way to Daxia by the Xirong, framed and drugged, and then fell into the hands of human traffickers. Now that a Xirong man had suddenly appeared and followed him, he had to be on guard. He calmly pulled out the dagger from his back.
The man clenched his fist and placed it on his chest, bowing. This was the Western Rong etiquette of respect, a ritual only used when visiting royalty. The man said respectfully, "I have come to welcome you, the Seventh Prince, back to Yuedu as soon as possible!"
******
On the stage, Song Jinyi was cracking melon seeds, her eyes following the positions of the people on the stage, her emotions rising and falling with their joys and sorrows, and she was immersed in the play.
When the play reached its climax, all the guests applauded and cheered. Song Jinyi also clapped her hands and cheered, "Good!"
She couldn't help but say, "This play is so well sung. The performance of Yu Tan'er, who died for love, is so touching that it makes me cry."
As the music changed its tune, the story came to an end and the people on the stage left one by one. Song Jinyi had not yet come to her senses until the mournful flute sound suddenly stopped.
She sat quietly for a while before she realized that Xie Wuyang had been out for a while and had not returned yet.
She bent her body, arched forward, grabbed the railing on the second floor, looked down quickly, but did not see Xie Wuyang.
She wanted to go downstairs to look for someone, but then she heard the drum beating "dengdengdeng". She hesitated for a second and sat back in her original seat.
It’s not too late to go after you’ve watched the show.
The performance this time was of "Jin Yu Nu". The band played music and a new actor twisted his body and walked onto the stage. Before the show started, three or two tables of audiences had already gone there.
Song Jinyi listened for a while. Although she didn't understand opera, she could sense that the new actor's posture was not as good as the previous one, and his singing voice was not stable. She also heard people from the next room talking, "This apprentice is not as good as the master..."
"If you ask me, it's time to find a successor for Huo Changqing... It's a pity that Boss Huo only has two dramas every day."
"There's no other way. If he doesn't leave, that Chang Ba Wang will be here soon. If he wants to leave then, I'm afraid he won't be able to."
…
Song Jinyi went downstairs and found the girl in yellow who led the way. She handed her all the money in her purse, thanked her for taking her in, and asked about Xie Wuyang's whereabouts.
She followed the instructions and walked around the narrow alley behind the theater. She didn't see anyone and she suddenly panicked.
Xie Wuyang is an unfamiliar place, where can he go?
Here, Xie Wuyang found a secluded place to talk with the foreigner. When one of them was walking towards the theater, he observed the environment and found that it was closer to come back from the front door, so he changed his route and walked that way.
Because he had been caught in the rain, he left his fu hat that covered his golden hair in the theater. When he came back, because of his extraordinary good looks, he inevitably attracted a lot of attention along the way.
He was feeling irritated and unconsciously quickened his pace, but unexpectedly he was stopped by a playboy halfway.
Seeing that Xie Wuyang was very handsome, the dandy thought he was an actor in the building. He hooked his chin and said some teasing words. Xie Wuyang was worried that Song Jinyi would not let him cause trouble, so he just shook the other's hand away fiercely.
The man was frustrated and grabbed Xie Wuyang's arm, claiming that he would take him back and teach him a lesson.
Xie Wuyang stared at the fat pig's hand expressionlessly, thinking that he might as well chop off the claw and use it as a snack.
His look of lowering his eyes in deep thought was very alluring, and the dandy couldn't help but stretch out his greasy hand towards Xie Wuyang's porcelain-white face.
Xie Wuyang's deep green eyes darkened, and without hesitation he pressed on the dagger in his sleeve, pulled it out halfway, and saw the annoying fat pig in front of him being kicked away fiercely.
Xie Wuyang was stunned. He looked at Song Jinyi holding out her hands to protect him and said to the playboy who was rolling on the ground, "In broad daylight, you are forcibly seizing a man. Do you have any shame?!"
The lackeys around the dandy hurriedly helped the man up. One of them pointed at Song Jinyi and cursed, "How dare you! Do you know who our Yanei is? This is Chang Yuan, the son of Minister Chang. Can you afford to offend Chang Yanei?"
Song Jinyi, an unarmed civilian, naturally could not afford to offend this fat and strong son of an official. She looked around, waiting for the protagonist of justice to appear.
It is often shown in TV dramas that when a bad guy robs a woman on the street, there is usually a righteous man who comes out of nowhere and not only rescues the victim but also punishes the bully.
There were people all around watching the fun, pointing, talking and laughing, but no one was willing to stand up. Chang Yanei said with his belly sticking out, "I think the young lady is pretty, although she has a fierce personality.
But I love training animals the most. If you and your husband are willing to share a husband, I can forgive the past."
Song Jinyi was puzzled at first as to why she regarded Xie Wuyang as her husband, but she didn't care about that. After hearing Chang Yuan's "earth-shattering" remarks, her jaw almost dropped.
She frowned, these words were really disgusting. If her stomach wasn't empty, she really wanted to vomit in his face.
Chang Yanei didn't bother to waste time with them. He informed his subordinates to tie the two men up in the street.
