Chapter 61 Escort Service "I'm so annoyed with you, Lu Lan."...
The Chen family elders went out specially to welcome and pick up the Baixun dumplings.
As soon as the gate of the Chen family courtyard opened, Old Lady Chen took the Baishuang dumplings and saw Wei Jinyun stamping her feet in the cold north wind.
She took the dumplings. Each one was round and of the same size, very standard. The few dumplings she tried tasted good, and she couldn't find any fault with them. She stuffed a red envelope into Wei Jinyun's hand on the spot.
"Boss Wei, you've worked so hard so early in the morning. Take this lucky money and share in the good luck."
Wei Jinyun held the heavy red envelope in his hands, and the fear he had just felt had long since disappeared.
After exiting Chenjia Lane, she waved the red envelope in her hand. "Look, Lu Lan, this is a huge lucky draw! Now I can run around Pingjiang Prefecture three times without even having to worry about walking at night. I hope to get more festive orders like this in the future!"
She pinched it out and it turned out to be a piece of silver.
The Chen family is really generous.
Lu Lan glanced at her smug look, the corners of his mouth curled up, "Oh? You're not afraid anymore?"
"Money gives you courage, and you have nothing to fear."
Lu Lan was pulling the donkey cart, and she was walking in front.
It was completely different from how tightly she had gripped his scabbard just now.
She has curved eyebrows and is a money-grubber.
The morning sun had not yet risen, but Lu Lan suddenly felt that although he was in the north wind, he did not feel cold at all.
"Since Manager Wei has been granted the title of Duke of Hong Kong."
Lu Lan said slowly, "So, do I get paid for escorting you?"
"Of course, of course. I'm not a stingy person."
Wei Jinyun patted Huihui's head and reached out to untie the purse hanging around his waist. "Then may I ask, Inspector, how much do you want as wages?"
"I'm hungry."
Lu Lan pointed somewhere not far away.
There was a wonton stall on the corner of the street, and white mist wafted over with the aroma of meat.
Wei Jinyun turned to look at Lu Lan, thinking that he had just finished his night shift, had not yet completed the case, and had accompanied her to the west of the city. The excitement in her heart caused by the big profit was secretly mixed with a different feeling.
She skillfully reached out and grabbed his scabbard, pulling him towards the wonton stand. "Then I'll treat you, Inspector, to some wontons."
"I forgot again."
"I'll treat Lu Lan to wontons!"
The two words "Lu Lan" were so loud that a street could not contain them.
The wind around the winter solstice is cold and it hurts when it blows on your face.
Wei Jinyun pulled Lu Lan under the oilcloth tent of the wonton stall.
The tent was already about 70% full. There were men wearing thick cotton-padded jackets, with frosted faces, slurping their wontons. White mist rose from the rims of their bowls, mixed with the aroma of meat, and drifted far away.
An old woman selling wontons was squatting by the clay stove, adding charcoal. Seeing someone approach, she quickly stood up and patted her apron. She wore a thick cotton skirt and a patched smock over it. Though her temples were a little gray, her movements were swift and agile.
"Please sit inside, my two guests!"
The old woman led them to a small square table at the innermost side. Just as she was about to wipe the table, she looked up and saw Lu Lan and was quickly stunned.
"Master Lu, why are you here in the west of the city so early today?"
The stability of Pingjiang Prefecture is due to a group of people from the Inspection Office patrolling the streets day and night. She has been setting up a stall here for decades. Since Lord Lu joined the Inspection Office, there have been no more ruffians causing trouble or eating wontons without paying.
Although Lord Lu is serious, everyone thinks he is a good person.
He always brought his men to her wonton stall to eat wontons.
"Just happened to be passing by."
Lu Lan responded and sat down.
Seeing he didn't say much, the old woman couldn't help but poke her head in. "Speaking of which, what happened with the incident in the river in front of Tianqing Temple the other day... Was that perverted devil caught? These past few nights, even those of us small businesses in the west of the city haven't dared to set up our stalls too early."
But within a few days, the entire Pingjiang Prefecture was talking about this matter after dinner. The news spread like wildfire in restaurants and teahouses in the east and west of the city.
When the people around saw Lu Lan, they didn't dare to approach and ask questions, but they all stretched their necks and pricked up their ears.
Lu Lan took a sip of the hot tea on the table and said to the old woman, "We're still investigating. But we'll add more people to patrol at night. You guys stay at the stall and don't go to remote places. It's okay."
His voice was not loud, but it was reassuring and steady.
The old woman nodded repeatedly. "I'm glad you said that! What would you two like to eat? We have plenty of meat wontons and bubble wontons."
"Two bowls of our signature bamboo shoots and fresh meat."
Wei Jinyun immediately took over and quickly added, "Put more soup. It's cold, so it's warm."
"Okay, I'll bring it to you right away!"
The old woman responded, turned around and opened the big pot on the clay stove, and white mist suddenly came out.
She stirred the pot with a long bamboo-handled spoon and put in dozens of plump wontons.
When the wontons were full and bulging, they were piled in the bowl like little ingots. She deftly spread bean paste, chopped green onions, and dried shrimp on the bottom of the bowl, then poured a ladle of boiling bone broth over it, and the white mist began to wisp upwards even more.
The old woman brought over two bowls. Lu Lan took them and took a spoon from the bamboo basket. She scalded it with hot water and handed it to Wei Jinyun.
Wei Jinyun thanked him, scooped up a wonton with a spoon, blew on the hot air, and took a small bite.
The winter bamboo shoots are delicious during the winter solstice. The crisp tenderness of the bamboo shoot tips mixed with the aroma of fresh meat slides down your throat with warmth, dispelling all the coldness in your body.
Her almond-shaped eyes were bright and her face turned slightly red from the heat as she ate the wontons.
Lu Lan's eyes quickly glanced away.
He often came to eat wontons here when he passed by on patrol in the past, but he had never felt that the candlelight in this stall was so bright. He could even see clearly the shadow cast by her eyelashes under her eyes when she lowered her eyes to drink the soup.
Wei Jinyun was eating with great relish, looking down and not noticing the gaze.
Not far away, an old woman was adding charcoal to the stove, but she kept glancing over here out of the corner of her eye.
She saw the look in Lord Lu's eyes as he looked at the young lady, and she felt happier than if she had sold a few bowls of wontons. The young lady was beautiful, with beautiful almond-shaped eyes, and the two of them sitting together looked so happy.
Wei Jinyun ate half a bowl of wontons. Seeing that Lu Lan hadn't touched the wontons in her bowl, she raised her eyes and said, "Lu Lan, why aren't you eating? This is the salary that Manager Wei gave you."
Lu Lan laughed twice and said, "I'll eat it."
Wei Jinyun drank the last mouthful of soup cleanly. The wonton stall that had been around for decades really tasted great.
She turned and smiled at the old woman. "Grandma, please pack some raw wontons for me. Two pounds of vegetarian wontons, my grandmother loves them, and two pounds of bubble wontons, my sister likes them."
"No problem. The vegetarian filling is mushroom and shepherd's purse, and the bubble wontons are made with pure meat. I made them all this morning."
The old woman responded cheerfully, and deftly wrapped it in oil paper and tied it tightly with straw rope.
Wei Jinyun took out his wallet to pay, but the old woman waved her hand and said, "You don't need so much. I'll give you a discount."
Wei Jinyun was stunned for a moment and pointed at the small wooden sign hanging on the corner of the shed. "Grandma, that sign says twelve cents a bowl, and these raw wontons, I think they should be about the same price."
"Lord Lu is a frequent visitor to our place, coming several times a month. Since you're coming with him, the bill will naturally be discounted by 20%."
The old woman glanced at Lu Lan, and wrinkles appeared at the corners of her eyes as she smiled.
"Lu Lan, I can get a discount by treating you to a meal? This is a great deal on wages."
Wei Jinyun moved closer to Lu Lan.
Lu Lan looked at the straw rope swaying in her hand and said slowly, "Yes, you can ask for more in the future."
"Do you still provide pick-up and drop-off services?"
"Tube."
Please ask the inspector to be your bodyguard and pick you up and drop you off. Just provide meals.
Is there such a good thing in the world?
As we walked back, the sky was already turning pale, and the clouds were gradually becoming stained. The darkness of the Yin hour had vanished, but the scabbard was still held in Wei Jinyun's hand, with Huihui wagging his tail from time to time beside him.
When we arrived at the arch bridge in front of Tianqing Temple, it was indeed quiet. Even the women who were washing clothes by the river in the morning were nowhere to be seen. Only a few people from the Inspection Office were standing under the willow trees.
Wei Jinyun quickened his pace, turned the corner and returned to Yunlaixiang.
Gu Xiang was sweeping the floor at the door with a big broom. She swung it vigorously, and the broom made a "swish" sound as it swept across the stone pavement.
"Xiao Gu, why are you here so early?"
Gu Xiang raised his head and said, "I couldn't sleep, so I just came early."
"Stop sweeping, stop sweeping. The entrance of our Yunlaixiang has been cleaner than my face these past two days. If you keep sweeping, the slate will be worn away by you."
Wei Jinyun pointed to the oil-paper bag and said, "I brought some wontons back. I'll cook some for you later."
"good!"
Seeing that Lu Lan was still following him, Gu Xiang was stunned for a moment, then he swiftly pulled Wei Jinyun's donkey cart loaded with snacks to the backyard.
When she passed by Lu Lan, she couldn't help but ask, "Master Lu, why are you here so early?"
Lu Lan's gaze fell on Wei Jinyun's back as he entered the shop. He said calmly, "Working for someone else." "Huh?"
Gu Xiang was still holding Huihui's reins, and he scratched his head when he heard that.
Working for others? Lord Lu still needs to work for others?
She glanced at Lu Lan's red official uniform, then thought about her daily routine of kneading dough, and couldn't bring the two together.
Wei Jinyun took the packaged wontons into the kitchen. Wang Qiulan had already stood up. She took over and cooked bubble wontons for her granddaughter.
She turned around and saw Lu Lan still standing at the door of the store. Thinking that he might not have rested all night, she walked over and asked, "Last night...did you not sleep a wink?"
"Um."
Wei Jinyun raised his chin and walked inside. "Then let's rest for a while at Yunlaixiang. You can choose any place and sleep wherever you like."
Lu Lan raised her eyebrows slightly, "Is it really that good?"
"What else can I do?"
Wei Jinyun sighed, "I just said that the ground in front of Yunlaixiang is cleaner than my face. No one comes here anyway."
"The old place."
"Well...how about a wicker chair? It's more comfortable than propping your head up on it."
Wei Jinyun pointed to the rattan chair next to the counter.
Lu Lan glanced at the rattan chair. On the back of the chair was the quilt she often covered herself with. "Isn't that your nest?"
"What's a nest?"
Wei Jinyun's face flushed, and he reached out and patted the armrest of the rattan chair, "This is called a resting place!"
"But every time I go to Yunlaixiang, you just take a nap here. What else can it be but a nest?"
“…”
Wei Jinyun decided not to talk to Lu Lan anymore.
She pointed at the rattan chair arrogantly, gave it a threatening look, and went upstairs to catch up on her sleep.
When Chang Siyan walked in with a cloth bag, he glanced at the counter, his eyes widened, and he exclaimed in a low voice, "Wow, wow! Sister Xiang is so good!"
Seeing her like this, Gu Xiang whispered, "Be quiet."
Chang Siyan was still excited, "Sister Xiang, the story about the raccoon slave repaying his gratitude has come true. I have new inspiration for my storytelling in the future."
Gu Xiang patted her back. Seeing that she was coughing while talking, he quickly pulled her in. "Come in quickly. It's windy outside. I made you some Chuanbei loquat paste. Drink it while it's hot to prevent you from coughing so much."
"It's true, Sister Xiang, it's true..."
Chang Siyan was still coughing and muttering to himself.
When the sun reached its zenith, Zhang Renbai walked in.
As he crossed the threshold, he caught a glimpse of a robe peeking out from the screen. The crimson hue was particularly eye-catching; it was clearly the official uniform of the Inspection Commissioner!
What's going on? Why is Lu Lan here? He...he's sleeping here?
Where's Miss Wei? She delivered the goods this morning. Could he have been waiting here the entire time? Then where... where did she sleep?
Zhang Renbai was daydreaming when he suddenly heard a slight sound from behind the screen.
Zhang Renbai looked up and saw Lu Lan step out from behind the screen, his hair untied and his shirt loose. His face still wore the tired look of someone just waking up, but his eyes were clear and focused on him.
He just felt that the loose robe made him dizzy.
"My lord! My lord!"
Zhan Wenxing's voice rushed in with hurried footsteps.
He was about to say something else when his eyes fell on Lu Lan and suddenly stopped.
Our Lord Lu had his hair loose and there was a lingering look of fatigue in the corners of his eyes.
Zhan Wenxing's mouth was wide open, an egg tucked in. His heart was in turmoil. Oh my god, oh my god! Did the Master...stay at Yunlaixiang all night?
"What is it?"
Zhan Wenxing came back to his senses, quickly suppressed his expression, and bowed, saying, "It's the deceased Zhen Yong's sister, Zhen Meiyou, who's here. She's waiting outside the Inspection Office. She said she wants to take the body back for burial first."
"Let her come to Yunlaixiang."
Lu Lan responded, raising his hand to straighten his shirt. He pinched the scattered hair with his hand, and then gathered his long black hair into a high ponytail, securing it with a headband.
His movements were quick and decisive, and the laziness he had just felt after waking up disappeared in an instant.
Zhang Renbai froze in place. Seeing Lu Lan's expression return to normal, he quietly walked to the small table by the window and sat down next to the bed. He whispered to Gu Xiang who was coming over, "...I want a few chestnut cakes."
After a while, Zhan Wenxing led Zhen Meiyu in.
Her eye sockets were now as red and swollen as peaches, with dark circles under her eyes. She walked very slowly, and she looked decadent, as if her energy had been drained away.
As soon as he saw Lu Lan, Zhen Meiyou knelt down with a plop.
She choked up and asked, "Lord Lu, please have mercy on me and let me take my brother back. He died so tragically, soaked in water... As his elder sister, I just want him to rest in peace and be buried properly..."
She fell to the ground and cried, her shoulders shaking and her voice shrill.
"No. The case has not been fully investigated, and the body needs to be temporarily stored in the morgue."
Zhen Meiyou suddenly looked up and looked at Lu Lan with tears in her eyes.
Her lips trembled. "But, but my brother... he's gone. How can he endure this torture again? Please, sir, I only have this one brother..."
She became more and more anxious as she spoke, and tried to move forward two steps by supporting herself with her hands.
Lu Lan's eyes suddenly darkened as he looked down at her. He spoke slowly, "I said no."
Zhen Meiyu's crying stopped abruptly, her face turned even paler in an instant, and she collapsed to the ground trembling.
"Zhen Meiyou, you should know clearly why I didn't let you take it back."
Her shoulders, which had been sobbing, stiffened, and she began to tremble uncontrollably, digging her fingers into the ground. She had dared to look up and plead for mercy just now, and now she didn't even dare to glance at Lu Lan from the corner of her eye.
There were soft footsteps on the stairs, and Wei Jinyun walked down, rubbing his sleepy eyes.
She glanced down and saw Zhen Meiyou kneeling on the ground with red eyes. "What's going on? Why is there so much noise?"
"It's nothing, it's about the case."
Wei Jinyun said "Oh" and turned his gaze to Lu Lan. Seeing that his hair was neatly tied and his expression had returned to its usual clear and bright state, he casually asked, "Lu Lan... Lord Lu, did you sleep well?"
She still has to be respectful in front of others.
Lu Lan nodded, "Okay."
Zhen Meiyu didn't dare to say anything else, but was helped aside by Chao Jiu to drink hot tea.
From the door of the shop came the sound of crutches tapping, accompanied by a staccato melody: "The bamboo clappers are knocking, the lotus flowers are falling, listen to me sing about a good world..."
An old man in his fifties was leaning on a wooden crutch, moving forward with each step he took.
His hair was gray, tied back with a cloth belt. His face was covered with wrinkles. His left eye was almost narrowed to a slit, and his right eye was also covered with a layer of white film. He wore a short jacket with a bulging cloth bag tied around his waist.
"Xiao Siyan, Xiao Siyan!"
Old Chang leaned into the shop and said, "You left your wake-up stick at home!"
Chang Siyan hurried out to greet him upon hearing the voice, and held his arm with his hand. "Old Chang, why are you here? It takes half an hour to walk from home. It's okay if the wake-up stick is not used for a day."
Old Chang grinned, took the wake-up stick, and then took out a paper bag from his cloth bag and stuffed it into her hand.
"I'm going to Changmen Wharf to sell fried tofu anyway, so it's on my way. Take this, I just bought some Sichuan Fritillaria. It's been cold lately, so don't let that cough get back."
"It's in the Yunlaixiang, keep it for yourself, Old Chang."
Chang Siyan pushed the paper bag into his arms and tried to pull him into the house. "It's windy outside, come in and sit for a while."
But Lao Chang waved his hand and said, "No need. Fried tofu should be sold while it's hot. No one will buy it if it gets cold. I even have someone to help watch over my stall."
He patted the back of Chang Siyan's hand again, and with his half-blind eyes facing her, he said solemnly, "Little Siyan, you must work hard here. This is better than telling stories."
"Got it, Mr. Chang, please drive slowly."
Chang Siyan took a deep breath.
"Yeah, I know that too."
Old Chang nodded and smiled even more happily. He leaned on his crutches, humming a tune as he staggered towards Changmen. The bamboo boards in his cloth bag occasionally collided with each other, making crisp sounds.
Chang Siyan stood there clutching the paper bag, watching Old Chang's back disappear before turning around. The moisture in her eyes had completely faded, and her usual lively smile had returned to her face.
She came close to Wei Jinyun and said, "Boss Wei, I've come up with a new joke about the Sun Tart. Do you want to hear it?"
"I couldn't ask for more."
"Once Lord Lu solves the case in front of Tianqing Temple, the streets will be crowded. I guarantee that within a few days, this Sun Tart will become the second Meow Meow Cookie and become a hit throughout Pingjiang Prefecture."
"Okay!"
Wei Jinyun held it up with one hand and gestured towards the lobby with the other, "We have to rely on Mr. Chang to protect Yunlaixiang. Wanwu, quickly serve the tea to Mr. Chang!"
"Here I come!"
Wan Wu responded, ran over with a teacup, and placed it in front of Chang Siyan with a smile, "Mr. Chang, you have to take care of our Yunlaixiang. Come and have some tea!"
Lu Lan held the tea bowl and walked straight to the chair opposite Zhang Renbai and sat down.
"I warned you, but you didn't listen."
Zhang Renbai looked up at him and said, "I don't understand what Lord Lu said."
"not understand?"
Lu Lan looked at him disdainfully, "Do you think the Inspection Office is blind? As long as we catch the seller of the food you ate and follow the clues, we can find out a lot of things. You should know more than me."
Zhang Renbai picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. Even the heat of the tea couldn't suppress the panic in his trembling fingers. "I don't know what you are talking about, sir."
"Zhen Yong."
Lu Lan opened her mouth, and when she said the name, her eyes fell on Zhang Renbai's face, "You know him."
"I don't know him."
Lu Lan put down the tea bowl, and the chill in her tone became even stronger. "Do you want to go to the Inspection Office too?"
Zhang Renbai looked up, a trace of resentment flashed across his face, and then he let out a mocking laugh, "What? Lord Lu wants to abuse private punishment? That's right. After all, Lord Lu doesn't even care about Miss Wei's innocence and reputation, and wants to stay overnight at Yunlaixiang."
"Is this all you say when you open your mouth?"
"Isn't it?"
Zhang Renbai clenched the tea bowl tightly and stared at Lu Lan.
“Tsk.”
Lu Lan looked at him and suddenly laughed softly, "Provocation."
Lu Lan turned to look at the counter. When his eyes fell on Wei Jinyun, his expression immediately softened. "Shopkeeper Wei, please come over here."
Wei Jinyun was checking the recent bills with Wan Wu. Upon hearing this, he asked loudly, "What are you doing?"
She said this, but she had already walked over.
Lu Lan pointed to her waist and said, "The sachet hanging on my waist belt may have fallen into the rattan chair."
Wei Jinyun said "Oh", turned around and went to search next to the rattan chair, and sure enough, she found her Meow Meow Cookie hidden edition sachet under the quilt.
She walked back and handed it to him. "Here. If you keep losing things like that next time, I won't keep it for you."
Lu Lan took the sachet, but didn't tie it immediately. She just turned it around in her hand and looked up at her. "I think I forgot how to tie the knot of this sachet."
Wei Jinyun:?
Her eyes widened. "Didn't you tie it neatly before?"
Lu Lan held the sachet and said seriously, "I'm a professional escort. I'm not as good as Shopkeeper Wei at these detailed tasks. Is the sachet part of the escort service?"
"I'm so annoyed with you, Lu Lan."
Wei Jinyun reached out and snatched the sachet, "I'm really scared of you."
She bent down, deftly threading her fingers through the knots and tying a tight bow around his waistband. "Alright, now it won't fall off... Inspector, do you have any other instructions?"
"none."
Zhang Renbai sat across from her, his hands trembling as he watched Wei Jinyun bend over to tie the sachet for Lu Lan. Yuanbao meowed and jumped onto Lu Lan's lap, and he even stroked her fur.
The veins at the corners of Zhang Renbai's eyes throbbed, and his eyes seemed to be blazing with fire. Even his breathing became heavier. He suddenly stood up, looked at no one, and rushed out.
Arriving at Yunlaixiang's door, the cold wind made him even more irritable. He frantically fished out the small paper bag from his sleeve pocket, his fingertips trembling as he poured the liquid into his mouth.
"Renbai, what are you doing? Why are you going to Yunlaixiang again?"
Xu dragged him to her shop, but she couldn't stop being angry, "I told you many times that she said she didn't like you anymore, but you refused to listen. What are you eating?"
Zhang Renbai stumbled as she pulled him, and the paper bag slipped from his hand, rolling on the ground a few times, revealing the grayish-white powder inside. He panicked and wanted to bend down to pick it up, but Lu Lan came out.
He didn't stop, his boots firmly on the paper bag, and looked at Zhang Renbai with a cold gaze, "What is this?"
Zhang Renbai's lips trembled, and he turned his head away and refused to speak.
Seeing this, Xu pushed him anxiously, her voice filled with tears, "Son! Lord Lu is asking you a question! What on earth is this thing?"
She knew very well that the Inspection Office had come to investigate as soon as they arrived and had not allowed her to tell Zhang Renbai. Now she just hoped that her son would admit his mistake quickly.
Zhang Renbai's eyes were red, the veins on his forehead were throbbing even more violently, but he still kept his lips tightly pursed.
Seeing him like this, Xu grew even more panicked. She reached out and twisted his arm, "Renbai! Why don't you listen to our parents? If you had listened to us earlier and studied hard for the imperial examinations, how could you have ended up like this?"
When she shouted, everyone in the shop came out, including the other shop owners who had already seen the inspection team standing at the door of Yunlaixiang.
Zhang Renbai's gaze swept across the crowd, and when it fell on Wei Jinyun's face, he happened to see the confusion in her eyes.
That was the look of his sweetheart.
The grievances that had been pent up for more than a decade suddenly burst through his throat. He violently shook off Xu's hand and roared at her, "It's because I listened to you too much!"
He actually started crying.
"You made me study like a rote mediocrity, so I never left the house. You made me quit school, so I couldn't even greet the teacher when I saw him again. You made me take the imperial examination, so I stayed up all night. You said Miss Wei wasn't worthy of me, so I could only watch her from afar!"
"But what did I get in return? I failed the college entrance examination, and you said I was useless. I wanted to take a break, and you said I wasn't a good student... I've had enough!"
Xu was stunned by his yelling and it took her a while to react.
Zhang's father also came out of the shop. Seeing this scene, he covered his chest and stamped his feet, "You evil creature! You are going to piss me off to death!"
"Yes! I just want to piss you off to death!"
Zhang Renbai's voice was filled with despair. "I wish we were all dead! If I die, I'll be free! If I die, I can... I can talk to her!"
His eyes were vacant, and his hands were waving wildly. "From childhood to adulthood, I've had to obey you in everything from what color robe I wear to whether I want sweet or salty porridge for breakfast to whether I want scallions and ginger. I've lived like a puppet on a string!"
"Only this summer, you left and left me alone to look after the shop."
He suddenly chuckled, his laughter filled with tears. "During those days, I didn't have to memorize those difficult books, I didn't have to listen to you guys talking about bringing honor to our family, Miss Wei gave me snacks, my two sisters and Meng Ge'er played with me... These were the happiest days of my life."
"You unfilial son!"
Zhang's father rushed out, shaking with anger, and raised his hand to hit him, "How dare you curse my parents to death!"
"OK."
Zhang Renbai looked at him, the last bit of light in his eyes extinguished, "Then I'll die. It's okay for me to die, right? Then you can't control me anymore!"
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly turned around and rushed towards the river not far away.
Before everyone could react, they heard a loud "splash" and his figure fell into the icy river, splashing a large amount of water.
"Renbai!"
Xu screamed, her vision went dark, and she almost fell to the ground.
