Chapter 145 Before the Storm



"It'll be fine soon. If you have some medicinal wine, rub it in!" To everyone's surprise, Lu Ying looked at Jiang San Niang's furrowed brows and simply said this indifferently before stopping.

The atmosphere froze instantly.

"By the way, is there something you forgot about that you came to see me?" The atmosphere was so awkward that Jiang San Niang had no choice but to make conversation. Thinking about how he had come back after leaving and what he had said, she asked.

Lu Ying shook her head, "It's nothing..." She originally wanted to ask how she was feeling and whether she had recovered, but given the current situation, it didn't seem appropriate to ask.

I'd better ask the girl.

"Oh..." Jiang San Niang silently shut her mouth.

"Oh, right, I'm leaving now. If they come back to bother you, just go find a girl. I'm over there!" Lu Ying said calmly, standing up to leave.

“Oh…” Jiang San Niang responded again.

So Lu Ying really left. When he was almost at the door, Jiang San Niang called out, "Um, Young Master Lu..."

Lu Ying turned her head and asked indifferently, "What is it?"

Jiang San Niang silently withdrew her outstretched hand and shook her head. "It's nothing..."

Lu Ying looked at her, who seemed completely unharmed, and asked somewhat strangely, "So, I'm really leaving?"

Jiang San Niang nodded haphazardly.

So Lu Ying went outside.

As soon as Lu Ying went out, Jiang San Niang heard Lu Ying's footsteps on the stairs, walking very quickly.

As soon as Lu Ying left, Jiang Qiao'er woke up, got out of bed, and walked to Jiang San Niang. There was no trace of sleepiness on her face, indicating that she had been awake for quite some time.

Jiang San Niang looked at her, somewhat surprised, "You..."

Jiang San Niang wanted to ask how much of her conversation with Lu Ying she had overheard, but before she could ask, Jiang Qiao'er asked first, "Are you injured?"

Jiang San Niang nodded.

"That man is here again?" Jiang Qiao'er asked again.

Although Jiang Qiao'er didn't say who the man was, Jiang San Niang knew she was referring to Yu Ziqing, and immediately became somewhat annoyed, "Not only did that man come, but that woman came too, and these two are pregnant with an illegitimate child!"

Jiang San Niang was furious. She had only recently suffered a miscarriage, and these two sluts were already pregnant. They must have been hooking up with each other long ago!

"Alright!" Jiang Qiao'er sighed. The two sisters had gone through a lot during this time, so much so that Jiang Qiao'er had matured rapidly. She didn't say anything, just sighed softly, "You rest here, I'm going down to watch the shop."

Jiang Qiao'er secretly made a mental note to go to Bai Nuo if anything happened.

If all else fails, you can go find that guy.

Jiang Qiao'er went downstairs and walked around the shop. In a passageway, she found a small pool of blood. Her face remained calm. She quickly closed the door, then went to the backyard to get water and a rag. She carefully wiped the bloodstain clean.

Just as she finished tidying up, the door of San Niang Cloth Shop was pushed open. Startled, Jiang Qiao'er quickly hid the rag behind her back and looked at the doorway warily.

The person stepped in with one foot, then walked in completely. Upon seeing the person, Jiang Qiao'er relaxed her guard and threw the rag behind her into the bucket.

The person who came was Bai Nuo.

Bai Nuo didn't notice anything unusual about Jiang Qiao'er. She only saw Jiang Qiao'er squatting on the ground and didn't know what she was doing. Looking at her, she asked, "Where is Third Sister?"

Jiang Qiao'er remained indifferent and pointed upstairs, "Inside the attic!"

Bai Nuo then asked, "Should I go find her?"

Jiang Qiao'er nodded.

So Bai Nuo went up to the attic. The door was ajar and not closed. When Bai Nuo opened the door, he saw Jiang San Niang leaning against the headboard with her eyes closed. She looked listless and her complexion was not good.

"Third Sister..." Bai Nuo called softly.

Jiang San Niang opened her eyes and saw Bai Nuo standing in the doorway. She immediately sat up straight and smiled, "You're here? Come in quickly!"

Bai Nuo walked in, smiling as she looked at Jiang San Niang, "Weren't you injured? Why are you up?"

"I only hurt my foot!" Jiang Sanniang laughed, then leaned back again. "By the way, what's the deal with that new shop that opened across the street?"

Bai Nuo shook her head, "I don't know, it just looks very high-profile!"

When she came out, the shop was still bustling with activity, it seemed like it was going to be lively all day. With a theatrical troupe and a 30% discount, it looked very high-profile and showed that the shop was rich. However, such high-profile behavior also had its advantages. Along the way, eight out of ten people she met were talking about this.

The name "Duobaoxuan" quickly became known throughout the entire town.

Bai Nuo sighed and laughed, "It's not a big deal. We'll deal with whatever comes our way. By the way, I heard from Lu Ying that you twisted your ankle? Are you alright?" Bai Nuo shifted the topic to Jiang San Niang's foot injury.

Jiang San Niang shook her head.

"Hey..." Bai Nuo placed a small bottle of liniment by the bedside. "Lu Ying said to give this to you. Take it three times a day, and you'll be almost fully recovered in three days!" As she spoke, Bai Nuo muttered to herself, "Speaking of which, this kid's bone-setting skills are top-notch. Why didn't he set yours?"

Jiang San Niang blushed, too embarrassed to tell Bai Nuo and Lu Ying that they had already accepted it for her.
