After Shen Danru fainted, Qi Shuoyu suddenly arrived and carried her away.
Qingtan knew that this person had no hostility towards her young lady and had even saved her before, so she wasn't in a hurry and followed him directly, but she lost him.
She searched for several days but couldn't find him, so she had no choice but to come to the Qinglong Escort Agency to demand his return.
"Green sandalwood".
Qingtan turned around upon hearing the voice and saw it was Shen Danru. She quickly ran forward:
"Miss, you scared me to death! How are you feeling?"
Qingtan looked Shen Danru up and down, and seeing that she was alright, she was relieved.
"After you fainted, that young master took you away. I came here, but they won't tell me where you are."
"I'm fine, don't worry. Let's go back first. How are Mom and Dad?"
Qingtan felt a little guilty and whispered, "I'm sorry, Miss, I didn't know."
Shen Danru understood that Qingtan had come to Ningzhou to find her. She had been unconscious for eight days and had been searching for her for eight days, so how could she blame her?
"It's not your fault, let's go back quickly."
Seeing that Qin Shuangyue was still following her, Shen Danru said, "Sister Shuangyue, you can go back now. We can walk by ourselves."
“Miss Chen, my master instructed me to escort you home, and I will certainly make sure you get home safely. Besides, even if my master hadn’t given the order, given our relationship, I would still have to escort you home.”
Shen Danru felt a warmth in her heart. That man said he was doing it to repay a debt of gratitude, and now that he had repaid the debt, he was still worried about her.
The three of them had just arrived in Sifang Town when they ran into Shen Dashan and his group, who looked worried and were pulling a cart full of braised meat and pickled fish.
"Uncle Zhao, Uncle Dashan, Uncle Xu, are you delivering goods?"
When Shen Dashan and the other two saw that Shen Danru had returned, they were overjoyed, relieved that the child was alright.
Thinking that Mr. and Mrs. Shen were still worried at home, she said, "Child, your parents have been looking for you for several days. Your father is seriously injured. We told him to rest, but he wouldn't listen. You should go back quickly. By the way, your parents are recuperating at Uncle Zhao's house now."
Thinking of the truckload of meat behind him, he said with a bitter face, "The people we offended this time have some influence in town. They are threatening all the shops that anyone who buys our braised meat is going against them. Many shop owners don't want to offend them, so they drive us away when they see us. Now we can't give this meat away."
Upon hearing this, Shen Danru was somewhat angry, but this was also normal.
When you're in business, harmony is paramount. They couldn't afford to offend the local bully, and they didn't want to get into trouble over a few pounds of braised meat. It's normal for them not to want their meat.
The root of the problem lies with Shen He's brother-in-law.
If this issue isn't resolved, it will be difficult for them to make a living in town.
"Uncle Dashan, you should go back first. I'll figure out a way to handle this."
Zhao Yong hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
"Uncle Zhao, please don't be shy and just say what you want to say to your niece."
“Child, let’s call it quits. We can’t afford to offend that martial arts school, and we certainly can’t afford to offend the Qinglong Escort Agency. A new branch of the Qinglong Escort Agency has opened in town. I went to inquire, and the manager is Sun Zhong, Sun Shi’s uncle. He’s vowed that he won’t let you off this time. I’m afraid your parents are in danger, so I’ve had them hide now.”
His deep, dark eyes suddenly turned cold.
It turned out that my parents weren't recuperating at Uncle Zhao Yong's house, but were hiding there.
Thinking about the dangers her parents might face in the next few days, she felt a little scared.
"Uncles, you should go back first. Please let my parents know I'm safe. I'll go back after I've taken care of some things."
Zhao Dashan and the others were worried and advised, "Kid, you should go home first. We can discuss it together when we get home."
"Don't worry, I'm fine. Go back first. Take a few pounds of braised meat with you each and eat it first. I'll deal with the rest when I get back."
The group exchanged glances. Having spent the past few days with the child, they knew he was a man of his own mind, so they didn't try to persuade him any further.
Qin Shuangyue rode behind on horseback, and she heard every word of their conversation. She cursed inwardly, thinking that Sun Shi was asking for it.
They don't even know who they've offended.
Let alone him, even I have to be respectful to Miss Shen, so what is he anyway?
She had initially been quite interested in Miss Shen, but after learning how much her master valued her, she immediately gave up on the idea.
The person his master favors is someone he dares to offend; he's truly clueless.
Seeing that Qingtan had turned his carriage around and headed towards the Qinglong Escort Agency in town, Qin Shuangyue quickly spurred her horse to catch up.
"Young lady, are you looking to escort goods?"
The staff of Qinglong Escort Agency quickly greeted the arriving guests.
At this moment, Shen Danru was no longer wearing her original coarse cloth clothes. Qi Shuoyu had Qin Shuangyue change her into a long dress of emerald green cloud brocade.
She looks like a young lady from a wealthy and noble family.
“I am Shen Danru from Shangqing Village. Tell your manager to come out.”
As soon as the waiter heard she was from Shangqing Village, he immediately knew who she was, and his attitude instantly became arrogant.
"So it was you. We haven't even settled accounts with you yet, and you've already delivered yourself to our doorstep. Chen Li, keep an eye on her and don't let her get away. I'll go and inform Manager Sun right away."
Shen Danru chuckled, "Don't worry, I'm not leaving. Go and inform your Manager Sun quickly."
Seeing him leave, Chen Li stepped forward and whispered a reminder:
“Young lady, you should leave. You may not know this, but you can’t afford to offend the Azure Dragon Escort Agency. Although our town’s escort agency is just starting out, the Azure Dragon Escort Agency’s influence extends throughout the country. If you offend one of them, it’s equivalent to offending the entire Azure Dragon Escort Agency of the Great Shun Dynasty.”
"And you may not know this, but ever since Manager Sun was assigned to Sifang Town Escort Agency as manager, many powerful families in the town have come to curry favor with him. You injured his nephew, do you think he will let you off the hook? Take advantage of the fact that he hasn't come yet, and leave with your whole family."
Shen Danru smiled faintly: "Oh?"
"Then why did you remind me? Aren't you afraid that your Manager Sun will come after you?"
Chen Li smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid. Although I'm afraid, I still can't stand the Sun family's tyranny. I heard that his nephew even led people to collect protection money. Many shops have been ruined by them, and they bully the weak."
Chen Li said anxiously, "Young lady, you'd better leave before he arrives. They are not people you can afford to offend."
Shen Danru nodded and said, "Thank you for the reminder, brother. I understand now. Don't worry, they won't dare to do anything to me."
With Qin Shuangyue, a core member of the Azure Dragon Escort Agency, what did she have to fear?
It's probably not her who'll be crying later; it'll be that Manager Sun.
Sure enough, Sun Shi arrived shortly afterward.
As soon as he entered, he said, "It was you, you slut, who injured my nephew. Now that you're here, I'll spare your worthless life, but don't even think about leaving this house again."
"Sun Shi, you have quite the nerve. Whose life do you want to spare?"
Qin Shuangyue spoke coldly.
