Chapter 417 You Have No Chance to Regret
"Dear guests, your wontons are here. Eat them while they are hot. They will not taste good if they get cold."
Not long after, the boss brought up a few bowls of wontons.
Su Ying picked up the spoon and started eating. Uncle He had made it for them a few times before, but she disliked it and made less as she would soon be full.
After finishing one bowl, Su Ying was about to pick up the second bowl when she heard an argument in front of the stall.
Several strong men stood in front of the stall and confronted the stall owner in a threatening manner.
"If you don't have money, let your wife go with us."
"Gentlemen, please give me two more days. My mother is sick and I have used all the money I have to treat her. I really don't have any more money."
"I told you, if you don't have money, let your wife pay off the debt and take the person away!"
The strong man went to grab the proprietress without saying a word.
The lady boss was so scared that she begged for mercy: "Don't arrest me, we will definitely give you the money, please!"
"How long will it take for you to earn a tael of silver from this small stall? You might as well come back with us, and we'll always be able to provide you with delicious food and drinks."
"No, please don't take my wife away..." The boss cried and went forward to hold his wife, but his thin body was no match for the strong man.
During the struggle, the boss was pushed by the strong man and crashed to Su Ying's table.
Just as Su Ying reached out for the third bowl of wontons, the table in front of her overturned.
Motu quickly picked up Queque and reached out to pull Su Ying, but Su Ying dodged him.
Su Ying lowered her eyes and looked at the wontons scattered on the ground, her heart skipping a beat.
The boss fell to the ground in embarrassment and looked at Su Ying apologetically, "Yes, I'm sorry, sir, I don't want the money for these wontons, you guys can leave now."
"Help! Help! Someone is being robbed in the street!"
The commotion here attracted a lot of onlookers, but no one dared to step forward. People who have been here for many years know that these people are not people they can afford to offend.
Seeing that his wife was about to be taken away by those people, the boss staggered to his feet and tried to save her but was kicked back.
The sturdy man gave him a mocking look, grabbed the woman and was about to leave.
"Hello."
Amid the murmur of discussion, Su Ying's voice seemed particularly abrupt.
Several sturdy men who were about to leave stopped and looked back to see who was so desperate as to speak at this time.
Just when there was only a woman who didn't look strong and a man who was born charming and delicate in the crowd surrounded by the circle, the strong men laughed, and their laughter was particularly unrestrained.
"Hey, what's wrong, little girl, do you want to go with us?"
Su Ying pointed at the wontons scattered on the ground expressionlessly, "You scattered my wontons."
The sturdy man looked at the wontons on the ground, sneered, walked over, raised his foot and stomped on them hard until all the wontons were crushed into the ground. "I stepped on them, what's wrong?"
Su Ying glanced at his foot that was still covered in wontons and slowly raised her eyelids, "Nothing, I just want to tell you that you don't have a chance to regret it."
As soon as she finished speaking, Su Ying suddenly raised her foot and stepped on the strong man's foot.
“Click!”
Everyone present could clearly hear the sound of bones breaking.
The sturdy man howled in pain and collapsed to the ground.
Seeing this, the other strong men exchanged glances and quickly stepped forward to pounce on Su Ying.
Motu lifted up the stool beside him with his toes and kicked it towards the strong men who were rushing over.
Several strong men were knocked back by the stool.
Su Ying grabbed the sturdy man whose foot was stepped on and pressed his head to the ground, "I hate it most when people waste food. Eat it!"
The strong man opened his mouth and wailed in pain. Su Ying pressed his head down and bit a mouthful of dirt.
"Lady, please spare my life, please spare my life... I, I won't dare to do it again, we will compensate for the wontons, we will compensate..."
The strong men were beaten to their knees and begged for mercy. They really hit a wall today.
They let go of Su Ying only after they said they would compensate her.
The strong men took out a purse filled with small change and said, "Lady, please let the little ones go."
Su Ying picked up the silver, weighed it, and kicked him on the shoulder, "Tell your leader, if you want revenge, come to me and I will teach him a lesson."
When the strong man saw Su Ying let them go, he quickly ran away, crawling.
The stall owner staggered forward to support his wife, and the couple came to Su Ying and the others and knelt down to thank them, "Thank you for your help, young lady, and thank you for your help, young master. You, you should leave quickly. These people are bullies in Haiyang City. I heard that they have connections with the city guards. You are no match for them. You can't be implicated by them because of us."
Su Ying took out a piece of silver from her purse and handed it to them, "Wonton money, take it, and don't go out to the stall these few days."
"We can't take this money..." The boss kept refusing. Su Ying put the money on the stove and turned to look at Mo Tu. "Let's go, eat somewhere else."
Motu nodded, holding Queque and followed her.
"She is beautiful, kind-hearted, and has great martial arts skills. How can there be such a good woman like Miss Su in this world?"
Su Ying looked back at him and sneered, "Even if you praise me, this bag of silver is mine."
Motu: “…”
The three of them found a restaurant to have dinner, and after eating, they went straight back to the inn.
Before entering the house, Su Ying said to Mo Tu, "Keep an eye on the sparrows at night."
Motu frowned, "How can I let Lady Su face danger alone?"
"Mind your own business." After saying that, Su Ying closed the door.
Why does Motu feel like he's a little redundant?
As the night deepened, a group of people quickly surrounded the entire inn.
The guy heard the noise outside and came out, then was kicked to the ground by the intruder.
"Tell me, which room are the guests, a man and a woman with a girl of seven or eight years old, staying in today?" the man glared at the waiter fiercely.
This guy had worked in the inn for a long time and recognized the other party at a glance. If he wanted to survive on this street, he couldn't afford to offend these people.
There were many guests coming and going today, but there was only one couple with a child. He remembered them. "On the second floor, on the second floor..."
The man lifted him up from the ground and said, "Lead the way."
The guy tremblingly led the man to the second floor and pointed to one of the rooms.
When they arrived at the door, the other party pushed the waiter away and kicked the door open.
The loud "bang" sounded particularly abrupt in the quiet night and woke up many guests who had fallen asleep. Many people opened the door and looked out curiously after hearing the noise, but when they saw the strong men who were almost filling up the inn, they were so scared that they quickly closed the door.
The sturdy man walked into the house, but found that there was no one in the house.
"Where are the people? Where did they go?"
