Tang Chen had just been lamenting that she had finally left the Su Mansion, but now, it seemed as if she had been pulled back by some uninvited guest. The person tightly grasped Tang Chen's wrist and pulled her behind the grass on the rockery near the corner gate. After looking around to make sure there were no other people around, the person lowered his voice and asked, "Why are you here? It's so hard to find you!"
Tang Chen pulled away the hand that was tightly holding him. Judging from the tone of the man's voice and the way he looked around, he must be a thief or a thief, a gentlemanly scum: "Brother, who are you? Are you sick?"
The man thought Tang Chen was playing dumb again, so he said bluntly, "I don't want to argue with you. Tell me, where did you hide my things? They're not in the Su Mansion at all!"
Tang Chen's mouth twitched: "What's wrong with you? You must have recognized the wrong person, brother!"
After carefully examining Tang Chen, the man made it clear that he hadn't made a mistake, but that he had changed his clothes too quickly. "Wrong person? Isn't your last name Tang?"
"……yes."
"Your name is Tang Chen, isn't it?"
Tang Chen was stunned. What the hell is this? Could it be that they have the same name and look exactly the same? Impossible! Could it be that she traveled back to her past life? How is that possible? Is this a time travel or a rebirth? "My name is Tang Chen, but I really don't know you, brother!"
This big brother was not polite to Tang Chen. He was busy looking for something and didn't have time to waste with him here: "You are acting weird all day long. If I hadn't seen you with Su Zhirou's maid just now, I would have caught you a long time ago!"
Tang Chen slapped his forehead helplessly. Well, perverts are everywhere, regardless of time and space. "...Brother, let me say it again, I am a decent person, I don't know you! Also, I'm warning you, men and women shouldn't touch each other. If you don't let me go, I'm going to scream!"
"You're still pretending that men and women shouldn't touch each other. Do you think I'm a fool?"
As he spoke, the man, with a mocking expression, was about to take out the steamed bun that "Tang Chen" had hidden in his chest. But in the next second, after feeling the softness in his palm that was different from the steamed bun, the man suddenly looked up at Tang Chen and was petrified on the spot: "......!"
Seeing the man's actions, Tang Chen first looked down at his hand on his chest in surprise, then he used a Pegasus Meteor Fist to hit the pervert's nose bridge: "Come on, catch the hooligan, die!"
The man's nose suddenly started bleeding. Seeing this, Tang Chen lifted up her skirt and sprinted out of the Su Mansion. Leaving behind was the pervert, nosebleed flowing, holding the air with his hands, thinking about life alone: "...What, what's going on?"
Tang Chen rubbed the back of his swollen hand while walking on the road, muttering: "Damn, what kind of a hellish place is this? I'm sick! If I hadn't dropped a rock, I would have suffocated that stinky hooligan with it. Damn it, don't let me see you again, otherwise, haha!"
…
Tang Chen looked up and down, left and right, and discovered a serious problem: people here don't use RMB, let alone coins, so how can she fill her raging stomach? Is she going to eat and drink for free? No, no, no, that would get her beaten to death. It's not okay.
She was a decent person; she couldn't possibly steal or rob, could she? Could she possibly become a beggar? She knew beggars in China earned a lot of money, but sorry, she was a person of principle; she had arms and legs, all her limbs intact, and she wasn't stupid. She'd rather carry bags at a construction site than accept charity.
Just as Tang Chen was struggling with her life, the sound of gongs and drums caught her attention. There were a lot of people in front of a bun shop not far from her. Curious, Tang Chen squeezed into the crowd to find out what was going on.
As she got closer, Tang Chen suddenly realized it was a steamed bun eating contest. She patted her rumbling stomach, looked at the baskets of steaming buns, and shook her head helplessly. It wasn't that she couldn't eat, it was that she didn't have the money to pay the registration fee! Sure enough, there's no such thing as a free lunch!
Tang Chen had just squeezed out of the crowd and was about to look for the next opportunity to eat when she was about to die. Suddenly, in this unfamiliar place, she heard a familiar voice calling her name: "Tang, Tang Chen!"
Tang Chen turned his head and saw the man who had inexplicably taken advantage of him, riding a tall horse and rampaging through the busy city. Tang Chen saw who it was and didn't care whether he was hungry or not, he ran away: "Fuck, this stinky hooligan, how come I meet him again!"
…
Question: How much harder does two legs have to work to outrun four legs?
Answer: Ordinary people should wait until the next life.
Tang Chen bent over and panted for a while, then glanced disdainfully at the "rogue" who got off the horse. The "rogue" took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Tang Chen: "Don't run away, you can't escape from my palm even if you run."
Tang Chen took the handkerchief and wiped the sweat off his face, then threw it back: "You stinky hooligan, you've chased me for two blocks, what on earth do you want to do! I told you you recognized the wrong person, we are not familiar with each other, what else do you want!"
The "rogue" looked at Tang Chen somewhat helplessly, his eyes, which had nowhere to go, finally fell on Tang Chen's head: "...Hold, sorry."
"ha?"
The "rogue" coughed dryly with red ears and hurriedly explained: "Sorry, I don't know you, you are..."
The more Tang Chen listened, the more he felt something was wrong: "Wait, are you here to apologize?"
The "rogue" muttered, "...yes."
Tang Chen put his hands on his hips. "Good fellow, you're such a tsundere! Why don't you just say it directly when you come to apologize?" He chased her for two blocks on horseback. "She's got legs, not wheels." She was so scared that she thought she'd really met a pervert. "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I'm telling you, I've suffered a double blow physically and mentally. How are you going to compensate me?"
When the "rogue" heard that Tang Chen only wanted compensation and didn't want him to lose his whole life, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "Name a price. This matter must not be known to any third party."
Needless to say, she knew that since he had come to apologize with such good intentions and was quite sincere, she didn't care too much. He was obviously the landlord's foolish son. Lunch was settled! Lao Tzu was right: misfortune often brings blessings, and blessings often bring misfortune.
However, Tang Chen was not quite sure what the currency here was like, so he did not speak directly. He just opened his claws and waved them in front of the "gangster".
The "rogue" seemed to understand something immediately. He took off the pouch from his waist and handed it directly to Tang Chen: "...Is this enough?"
Tang Chen weighed the purse, thinking that he wouldn't tease him again, so he didn't open it to check: "Well, it's about the same. But I have to warn you, next time before you meet someone, please make sure to check whether they are a man or a woman, be careful not to be bullied. Goodbye."
Tang Chen just turned around when the "hooligan" stopped him: "What are you doing?"
Could it be that he regretted it and wanted to take the money back? No, please leave more for me, please!
The "rogue" brother only asked one more question: "Are you really called Tang Chen?"
Tang Chen shrugged and said, "No, my name is Tangcheng. Goodbye."
