Just in case they made a mistake, both of them were avid novel readers, and the essential secret codes for time travel were just a few, which they recited and had been firmly engraved in their minds like a magic spell.
three,
two,
one,
I recognized him from his eyes; he was the one I had been clinging to all along, the one who had been clinging to me all along.
One was excited, the other was devastated.
The others listened silently to Cailian kneeling beside them, the two conversing in a language they couldn't understand. Sensing the fluctuations in their auras, they were all intelligent and could easily tell that the two knew each other.
Before the two could even meet, the crowd erupted into chaos. Recalling the scene from the play, Shen Nian reached out and pulled the kneeling person up, pulling him behind her.
Even if we're on the verge of collapse, we can't let others bully us.
"Oh, you've met a benefactor? You actually sold them? I didn't expect there to be a few beauties among them?"
The thug who arrived looked at the person being pulled behind by Chen Nian and said in a sleazy tone.
"Get over here! I gave you the money yesterday, what are you selling yourself for?"
He probably realized that the group was not to be trifled with. Although he was lustful, he was still willing to risk his life. He didn't dare to provoke the others, but he shouted fiercely at the person that Shen Nian was protecting behind him, and even tried to grab him directly.
However, Ertai, who had noticed the move, raised his hand to block it, twisting the bully's wrist and causing him to cry out in pain.
"Aaaaah—, let me go! Do you even know who I am?"
"I don't care who you are. If you dare to touch what you shouldn't, don't blame me for being impolite."
Ertai said coldly, his face covered in frost. How could he let others touch someone he wouldn't even touch himself?
"You're talking nonsense! If you gave me the money, I wouldn't be selling myself here. My father is still in that dilapidated temple and hasn't been buried yet! Besides, you're just a lecherous scoundrel who lusts after other women. I'll teach you a lesson sooner or later."
No sooner had Ertai finished speaking than Cailian chimed in.
When she ran into someone she knew, the bully was subdued. Cailian, with her spoiled young lady temper, couldn't stand it anymore and even rolled up her sleeves to teach him a lesson. No one had ever dared to bully her since she was a child. If she hadn't come to this world where she knew nothing, she would have definitely taught him a lesson.
Moreover, neither she nor the original owner of this body actually took any money from this person; this person was just trying to get something for nothing.
Benjamin, standing at the back, looked at the scene in front of him. His gaze fell on the hot-tempered girl who was rolling up her sleeves. His heart skipped a beat. Was another little tyrant going to join their team?
"You bitch, you better come with me, or I'll get rough with you."
The bully was furious at being insulted by a woman. He broke free from Kertész's restraints and dared not provoke her any further. He took a step back and pointed at Cailian, who was hiding behind Shen Nian, threatening her.
"I didn't take your money, you just want to get something for nothing."
"You bitch, you won't listen to me when I try to reason with you, huh? Brothers, think of something and get her back? If you don't want to get hurt, let her go, and I won't hold it against you."
The bully pointed at Chen Nian and shouted loudly.
"You think you're in the right to forcibly abduct women? What if I don't release them?"
Chen Nian held the person firmly behind him, coldly staring at the bully.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony, let's go."
The bully, upon seeing the group of simply dressed people in front of him, felt his initial shock at Ertai vanish instantly.
"You dare bully Niannian? You're asking for death!"
