Chapter 186 The Flower Thief's Wishful Thinking



"Have you reported it to the authorities?"

It's no use coming to find her when she's missing, since the two of them have already reported it to the authorities. They'll probably just ask around from people who are connected to Yang Xiaoman.

But after Chuanwen said that Yang Xiaoman hadn't come to see her and that she had just woken up and hadn't seen Yang Xiaoman, the Vice Minister of Revenue and his wife didn't leave, seemingly too heartbroken to leave.

The old lady of the Marquis of Changxing had her maid serve tea and spoke comforting words to the Marquis of Changxing.

Chuanwen, standing to the side, also sighed, "Alas, the hearts of parents are always full of love and worry!"

However, who exactly kidnapped Yang Xiaoman?

The wife of the Vice Minister of Revenue was still sobbing sadly, but the Vice Minister of Revenue was listening intently.

[Ahem! What a womanizer!]

Upon hearing this, the Vice Minister of Revenue almost collapsed to the ground, his legs nearly giving way beneath him.

Chuanwen sighed again, "Alas, the hearts of parents are all the same. Just the disappearance of their daughter has terrified the Vice Minister of Revenue. If he knew his daughter had been kidnapped by a notorious womanizer, I wonder if he would kill her with a knife?"

Two rivers flowed slowly through the Vice Minister of Revenue's heart; he wanted to kill someone right now!

Marquis Changxing glanced at Chuanwen's expression and feigned confusion, saying, "Alas, I wonder where Miss Yang has been taken?"

[The third shop in Xinyue Hutong, Taohua Lane, Dongjie!]

The muscles on the Vice Minister of Revenue's face twitched. "Alright! Man'er, Father is coming to save you!"

The Vice Minister of Revenue left in a hurry, his back view completely different from when he was trembling with fear just now. He looked as if he was carrying a giant sword that was dozens of meters long, exuding a fierce aura!

The wife of the Vice Minister of Revenue was sobbing when she suddenly saw her husband rushing away. Although she couldn't hear what Chuanwen was saying, she guessed that he had probably revealed their daughter's current location. So she stopped sobbing, hurriedly bid farewell to the Marquis of Changxing and his wife, and quickly chased after him, her whole body radiating the same fierce aura, as if she wanted to ride on a whirlwind and then throw it at the face of the person who had kidnapped her daughter.

Message: ......

What happened to those weak and pitiful parents who just lost their daughter?

Chuanwen watched the two figures disappear into the distance, heading off to fight, lost in thought. However, she still had some doubts. [That womanizer has really unique taste! How could he possibly be interested in someone as large as Sister Han? I wonder if he can stand her bad breath? Wait, wasn't Sister Han kidnapped by the womanizer?]

Although the elderly couple, the Hous, were lamenting Yang Xiaoman's tragic fate of being abducted, they were actually listening intently to their granddaughter's thoughts.

[Uh...it turns out that Sister Han was tricked by a strategist surnamed Liu from the Shen family. That man redeemed her from her servitude, saying he wanted to marry her, but after leaving the capital, he sold her to an old mute man.]

Although the Marquis of Changxing and his wife felt nauseous at the mere mention of Sister Han's name, Chuanwen felt a pang of pity for her, as her current situation was dire. [That old mute is an abusive man; he beat his previous wife to death and drove his children away. Now his temper is even worse, and he frequently beats and verbally abuses Sister Han!]

That's quite pitiful!

The Marquis of Changxing and his wife felt quite sorry for Sister Han. After all, although she was despicable, she hadn't really done anything heinous, and it was just unfortunate that she encountered such a thing.

However, they sighed, thinking that compared to the women who were kidnapped by flower thieves, Sister Han was actually better off.

Even if those women were rescued, they would still face societal condemnation. Becoming nuns in the mountains was one option, or they would hang themselves from the rafters with a rope.

However, Chuanwen didn't seem worried at all, and it turned out that Chuanwen's lack of concern was justified. She must have known all along that the flower thief hadn't gained any benefit at all!

Two days later, the Vice Minister of Revenue came to visit, bringing many gifts. He told the Marquis of Changxing that when the notorious womanizer confessed, he revealed his bizarre intention to abduct the girls.

The notorious womanizer had seen a picture book and was deeply attracted by the descriptions of wine pools and meat forests in it. He planned to kidnap some women and take them back to imitate the women in the picture book. As for why he went all the way to the capital to kidnap people, it was because he thought the women in the capital were beautiful and of noble status.

A place filled with wine and meat is vulgar; only beautiful women of noble status can truly elevate its status.

When the Vice Minister of Revenue got to this point, he spat out a contemptuous remark, "I think that fellow is just dreaming!"

Marquis Changxing nodded in agreement, and suggested that Imperial Censor Liu Zhangmin contribute one or two of his concubines' sweet potato pastries.

Continuing with the story of the womanizer, by the time the Minister of Revenue arrived, the womanizer had already been subdued.

Well, to talk about this, we have to mention his clever, witty, and brave daughter.

The notorious flower thief originally kidnapped the girls, tied their hands and feet, and locked them in a house. But his daughter was clever; she went to great lengths to secretly untie the ropes from her hands, even getting blisters on her wrists. When he saw this, he was heartbroken. Uh, wait, I seem to have gone off-topic.

After wiping away his tears, the Vice Minister of Revenue quickly steered the conversation back on track. Marquis Changxing also shed a few tears before continuing to listen attentively.

His daughter finally managed to pull the rope free, but could she run away? No, she couldn't!

Several girls locked in the room with her were looking at her pitifully with longing eyes. How could she abandon them?

But just as his daughter squatted down to untie the other girls, the notorious womanizer came in to bring them food. When he saw that his daughter had not only untied the ropes herself but was also rescuing others, he immediately became furious.

That was a truly thrilling moment!

However, the Vice Minister of Revenue showed no sign of worry, but rather a proud and ambitious air.

Because at that critical moment, his daughter took out a small object from her sleeve and stabbed the lecherous thief. The thief then convulsed, collapsed to the ground, and foamed at the mouth.
