Chapter 206 Men will only slow down her sword-drawing speed
Meng Qingyin never expected that men could be so shameless, spouting lies so easily.
However, a righteous passerby quickly stepped forward and exposed the man's lie: "You're lying! I clearly saw you bump into him!"
Zheng San narrowed his eyes, staring at the man with a displeased tone: "Have you thought this through? Who hit whom? If you dare to lie, you know what the security team can do."
The man flinched, but couldn't withstand the pressure. "Yes, I bumped into him, but I really didn't mean to. It was an accident!"
Zheng Shi said "Oh," and then said knowingly, "So you accidentally bumped into someone, then punched and kicked them? And then you turned around and accused them?"
The man's face flushed red, and he fell silent.
"Now that the truth is clear, why don't you apologize and pay compensation?" Zheng San said coldly.
Upon hearing the word "pay compensation," the man immediately wilted like a frostbitten eggplant, his face drooping. "He...he's alright, so let's just forget about the compensation. I'll just apologize to him."
Zheng San said expressionlessly, "What do you think?"
Knowing that he was going to lose money today, the man stopped struggling and took out a few copper coins from his pocket and threw them at the person on the ground.
Meng Qingyin couldn't stand it anymore. This person showed absolutely no remorse. "I don't think he's done anything wrong. Let's just take him away and teach him a lesson."
The man was startled. "What's it to you? Why are you being so nosy?"
He then took out a silver coin and threw it to the person lying on the ground, saying, "This money should be enough, right? Enough for this beggar to eat for several days."
Zheng San's tone was icy: "Take her back for education."
The subordinates obeyed and restrained the man from both sides.
The man was filled with remorse, pleading, "I'll pay even more! Please don't arrest me!"
The man was quickly dragged away.
Meng Qingyin crouched down and asked softly, "Are you alright?"
The beggar remained motionless.
Zheng Shi also squatted down and reached out to check, "She should have just fainted, she's still breathing."
Meng Qingyin wanted to move the person to the wall, where people were coming and going and it would be easy for them to get trampled.
Seeing through her intentions, Zheng Shiyi hoisted the person onto his shoulder and spontaneously placed the beggar in the corner.
Meng Qingyin followed.
It's unclear whether it was because Zheng Shi's movements were too exaggerated, but the beggar actually woke up.
However, "his" face was dirty, his lips were cracked in several places, and his clothes were tattered, making it impossible to tell whether he was a man or a woman.
Meng Qingyin took out a bottle of water and handed it to "him," saying, "Drink this."
The man's eyes lit up, and he took the water and gulped it down, clearly extremely thirsty.
Meng Qingyin picked up all the money from earlier and placed it in front of the beggar. "This is compensation from that person. Keep it safe."
The beggar's lips moved as if he wanted to speak, but only a few repetitive syllables came out of his throat.
Meng Qingyin took out a few more steamed buns and dumplings and gave them to "him" before standing up and leaving.
Previously, when she was locked in that small, dark room, she longed for someone to give her a bottle of clean water and a steamed bun to eat.
But that was just wishful thinking.
What she received was the dean's verbal abuse, beatings, and moldy steamed buns.
At this moment, it seemed as if all her past misfortunes had been made up for.
No one gave her warmth when she was a child.
But it's okay, as she grew up surrounded by warmth, she reached out to her former self for help.
At this moment, Meng Qingyin finally felt relieved.
Don't dwell on past misfortunes; look forward.
Ahead lies friendship, family, partners, and above all, hope.
The beggar leaned against the wall, staring blankly as the figure receded into the distance until it disappeared completely.
A tear slid down "his" face.
It turns out that there are still people in this world who do good without expecting anything in return.
...
Zheng Shiyi followed Meng Qingyin, who finally couldn't hold back any longer: "How long are you going to keep following me?"
Zheng Shi was a little flustered. "I don't mean to bother you, I just want to ask, what exactly do you think is wrong with me?"
He will change it until she likes it!
Meng Qingyin didn't understand. She and Zheng Shi had only met a few times. How could Zheng Shi fall in love with someone so easily?
She said very seriously, "I don't like you because you're bad at anything. Even if you were perfect and had no flaws, I still wouldn't like you. We're not compatible, do you understand?"
She's a player, and Zheng Shi is an NPC; there's no way things can work out between them.
Moreover, even if Zheng Shi is a player, she isn't attracted to him.
She doesn't know what the future holds for her, but for now, she needs to become stronger, and men will only slow down her sword-drawing speed!
Zheng Shi was completely stunned, and Meng Qingyin took the opportunity to slip away.
"Not on the same wavelength?" Zheng Shi murmured. "Could it be... that she looks down on what I did in the past?"
Looking back, their first meeting was indeed not pleasant. He was a robber, while she was a guard, and their identities were naturally opposed.
The female knight-errant is a beautiful and kind-hearted person, so it's normal that she doesn't like him in such a despicable way.
Zheng Shi felt he had figured out the key to the problem.
He's made up his mind: starting today, he's going to retire from his life of crime!
He immediately called Zheng Yi: "Hey, bro, let's switch careers."
...
Meng Qingyin changed her dirty shoes first, and then took the baby for another hour to stroll around, but they didn't find anything rare.
She messaged other people to ask, but they hadn't found anything either; they had just bought some random little trinkets.
Meng Qingyin decided to go with the flow and wandered around for a while before going back to find Li the blacksmith.
Li the blacksmith was very pleased with the tea set she received, and said that he would use the new tea set to brew tea as soon as he got back.
The two bid farewell to Ishino and went to find Daiyuki and Niyuki.
To Meng Qingyin's surprise, in less than a morning, Daxue and Erxue sold out all the farm tools she had forged, earning her 2 gold coins and 60 silver coins.
Meng Qingyin praised the two snows for being capable, and the snow was so praised that it seemed like it was growing a little tail.
The group met at the parking lot entrance, and Meng Qingyin went to get her scooter.
At this moment, the parking lot security guard had been replaced by someone else. He also had a token hanging on his waist, but it was just an ordinary token, indicating that he was an ordinary member of the Robbery Alliance.
As Meng Qingyin was about to leave on her bike, the man walked over, holding a device about the size of a cell phone: "You haven't paid your parking fee yet, have you? Let me check how long you've been parked."
As he spoke, he looked down and began searching through the instruments.
Meng Qingyin: "Isn't it free if the usable area is less than one square meter?"
The man didn't even look up. "There's no such rule... Oh? You've already paid? Okay, you can go now."
Meng Qingyin immediately understood that there was no rule that "no charge is charged if the usable area is less than one square meter"; Zheng Shi had paid for her!
"Wait a minute!" Meng Qingyin called out to the person who was about to leave, "How much money do I need to pay?"
The man said, "5 silver coins."
Meng Qingyin: "I'll give you the money."
The man waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "You've already paid, I can't take any more."
After saying that, he ran away.
Helpless, Meng Qingyin realized she had to find a way to return the parking fee to Zheng Shi.
