The little girl's parents pointed at Shi Jingjing's nose and cursed.

"You are so shameless to snatch food from a child?!"

The onlookers also looked at her with disdain.

"I'm sorry, my friend didn't mean it. How about this, take this money and buy a few more drinks."

Shangguan Zhi had been following Shi Jingjing, and he didn't expect that she would do such a thing in the street.

Even though he was impatient, for the sake of the greater good, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and help her solve the mess.

"Being rich is not a big deal. Do you think we are the kind of people who need your few taels of silver?!"

"We queued for half an hour just to buy milk tea, and the supply is limited every day."

Someone in the crowd nodded in agreement, "That's right, I went too late, there's no more today, if you want to drink you'll have to wait until tomorrow!"

"this……"

Shangguan Zhi's expression became much uglier, and then he took out a few silver bills and handed them over.

"I would like to apologize to the three of you on behalf of my friend. Please accept this as a small token of my appreciation."

Seeing the amount on the banknote, the woman was tempted.

"My daughter has been talking about wanting to drink milk tea for two days, and I finally bought some..."

Although she said this, her eyes were fixed on the banknotes.

Seeing this, Shangguan Zhi had no choice but to take out two more cards. The woman quickly took them and stuffed them into her chest.

"Since you are so sincere, I won't bother with you."

Perhaps because she was afraid of being robbed, the crying little girl was held in her father's arms.

The woman pushed away the crowd of onlookers, and the family of three ran away quickly.

After the matter was resolved, Mo Zhou shouted to the crowd: "Everyone disperse!"

When people saw that he was carrying a knife, they were afraid of getting into trouble and walked away.

Shangguan Zhi turned around and looked at Shi Jingjing who was still in a daze, his eyes full of disgust and impatience.

But within a breath, his eyes were filled with worry.

He asked softly and concernedly: "Miss Shi, are you okay?"

Shi Jingjing's face turned pale, her forehead was covered with cold sweat, and her mouth opened and closed, as if she was saying something.

Shangguan Zhi held his breath and listened carefully.

"How could that be? Could it be that the person selling milk tea and soap is the same person?"

"We are both time travelers, so how could that person be so successful in ancient times?"

A time traveler? What does that mean?

Shangguan Zhi squinted his eyes and looked at her. Before he could think about it, Shi Jingjing suddenly ran away and grabbed a passerby.

“Where is the shop that sells milk tea?”

The passerby didn't understand, but still pointed her in a direction.

"Go straight down this street and turn right at the next intersection."

"Miss Shi!"

Looking at her back, Shangguan Zhi waved his sleeves heavily in annoyance.

If it weren't for the divination by the national master, he would have ignored this crazy woman!

"Master, do we still need to follow?"

Shangguan Zhi certainly didn't want to, but when he thought about what she had just said and still hadn't figured it out, he turned around and gave the order.

"First, arrange for someone to find out the origins of the Sweet Taste House and find out who is behind it."

On the other side, Shi Jingjing found the Sweet Building.

But the door was closed. She knocked a few more times desperately, but there was no one inside.

"Miss Shi, you don't look well. What happened?"

Shi Jingjing's eyes were a little evasive.

"Nothing, I just think the milk tea is delicious and I want to buy some more to take home."

“I see.”

Shangguan Zhi looked at her meaningfully and sneered in his heart.

Haha, not only is he greedy for fame and fortune, but he's also a teller of lies!

"Since the store is closed, I'll take the girl home."

Shi Jingjing nodded absentmindedly, and the two walked side by side in the alley.

Suddenly, Shi Jingjing frowned, "There seems to be a strange smell..."

Before she could finish her words, she fainted.

Realizing something was wrong, Shangguan Zhi quickly covered his mouth and nose.

But perhaps the dosage of the drug was too high, he didn't last long and used his last bit of strength to make a small hole in the sachet he carried with him.

Before his consciousness fell into darkness, he heard several men's voices:

"Boss, there's another woman, what should we do?"

"The employer only said to arrest this man, and don't worry about the other one!"

“Go!”

"Miss Shi!"

As soon as Shi Jingjing opened her eyes, she saw Mo Zhou who looked panicked.

She knocked her confused head and gradually regained consciousness.

"Oh no! Master Yun has been captured!"

Mo Zhou had an ugly look on his face. After he passed on the order, he came here to meet his master.

Unexpectedly, I saw Shi Jingjing lying on the ground unconscious.

"Let's report to the police!" Shi Jingjing suggested.

"no!"

Mo Zhou refused without even thinking about it.

Recently, the city has been searching for people from other countries. If I report to the authorities at this time, wouldn't that be courting death? "Why?"

Shi Jingjing looked at him in confusion.

Mo Zhou made up an excuse, "Maybe the kidnappers are secretly watching us. If we report to the police, what if they become desperate and kill us?"

Hearing him say this, Shi Jingjing looked around cautiously.

No wonder she always felt gloomy.

Among the thirty-six strategies, running away is the best one.

Although Young Master Yun had helped her, they did not have a very deep friendship. There was no need for her to get into so much trouble for him, let alone risk her own life.

"Don't worry, I will also help find Master Yun. If there is any news, I will come to you again!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she ran away quickly.

Mo Zhou's face turned pale and he looked at her back with gloomy eyes.

It's not worth it for the master to fall into danger because of such a person! Suddenly, he noticed a piece of paper on the ground. He picked it up and saw that it was the recipe for milk tea.

After he put it away, he noticed some small powder in the corner, which he picked up and examined carefully.

"This is... the spices that the master carries with him!"

Then he followed the spices left on the ground to find his way there.

On the other side, Shanju Pavilion

Late at night, a group of people rushed into a room on the second floor, but found nothing inside.

"No?"

The prince turned to look at Zhao Chengwen, "Didn't you say you saw him there this morning?"

Could it be that someone leaked the news?

"I can be sure that not a single piece of information has been leaked."

"The shopkeeper also said that they never went back after they went to the streets."

The prince looked away and said meaningfully, "So it's a coincidence? You are so lucky."

If Chu Yaoyao were here, she would definitely tell him that this is called the protagonist's halo.

…

Qionghua Palace

Chu Yaoyao stared at the message on the panel in a daze.

It has been five days. If Ruan Nuo hadn't sent a message every day, she would have suspected that there was a system failure and they had lost contact again.

System: Ding, ding, ding... Your trading partner requests a video call with you. Do you accept? Chu Yaoyao clicked the connection button almost instantly.

【accept!】

An old man in military uniform appeared in the picture. Chu Yaoyao was a little dazed when she saw the three dazzling golden stars on his shoulders.

"I'm sorry, little boss, I've been too busy these days and haven't had time to contact you."

Ruan Nuo's apologetic voice came to my ears.

The old man was also very surprised when he saw the figure suddenly appear in the video, and the key point was that it was a baby, but he quickly adjusted his expression.

"Hello, my dear Chu Yaoyao, I am Zhang Zhen. Thank you very much for your trust in us. I am also very sorry that I have been studying those two documents these days, so it took some time."

Hearing this old but slightly majestic voice, Chu Yaoyao blinked.

I understand that after all, what falls from the sky may not necessarily be pie in the sky, it may also be a sugar-coated bullet, so it is normal to be cautious.

"You're welcome. Those things are of no use to me. I'm happy to be able to help Ruan Nuo and you."

That's right, her original intention was just to help Ruan Nuo.

Of course Zhang Zhen also heard the implication of her words. His eyes flashed and then he laughed.

"Anyway, thank you very much."

In the next half hour, they talked a lot.

After the call ended, Chu Yaoyao smiled so hard that her teeth were showing as she looked at the extra things in the space, especially the small box of iron lumps.

Ruan Nuo really found a golden thigh this time.

She also benefited from it.

[But it's a bit strange, system. I feel like they are being a little too polite to me.]
