Chapter 32: A life-threatening situation
Chen Yanchuan retracted his gaze, casually placed a piece on the chessboard, and asked with a smile: "Which eye of yours can tell that I like her?"
Xie Anbai pointed to his eyes: "I saw it with both eyes, okay! Don't tell me that you stay here and have no thoughts about others!"
Chen Yanchuan tilted his head and thought, he wanted to investigate the relationship between Xu Fengchi and Ye Chutang, and he did put a lot of thought into her.
However, there was no progress on this matter for the time being, and he did not want to make it public, so he did not mention it, and finally said:
"She is a good doctor."
Xie Anbai knew very well that receiving this evaluation from him was enough to prove Ye Chutang's ability.
But he still felt that Shen Yanchuan must have bad intentions.
When he first heard Shen Yanchuan talking about Doctor Ye, he thought he was an old gentleman with a sage-like demeanor. Who would have thought that he was such a young and beautiful woman!
Although the woman did not come closer in the courtyard just now, one could still see how beautiful and elegant her face was.
Her gentle and clean demeanor was no worse than those of the noble ladies in the capital.
Xie Anbai leaned on the soft couch and snorted, "Since you left, so many women in the capital have followed you. Who would have thought that you would live a carefree life here."
Shen Yanchuan's face is really attractive. Even though he has rarely appeared in Beijing in recent years, he can still easily win the hearts of many women. He is the dream lover of countless girls.
I thought he was a cold-hearted person, but now it seems that he just hasn't met the person who can subdue him.
Chen Yanchuan laughed. Xie Anbai had only met Ye Chutang once, but he was sure that he was attracted to her because of her looks. However, he didn't know that this little white flower was actually a black-hearted lotus that killed people without blinking an eye.
Falling in love with a woman like this is extremely dangerous.
But he was too lazy to explain. After all, he would have to stay here for some time.
"If you only came here to ask these questions today, you can leave now."
Xie Anbai stood up immediately: "Hey, hey, hey! Stop it! Let's talk for a while longer! What is the relationship between that little kid just now and her?"
Shen Yanchuan: “Her sister.”
Xie Anbai immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good!"
He almost thought that his brother was going to become a father.
Shen Yanchuan naturally heard his subtext, and with a pause of his fingers, the black piece changed its position and fell.
As soon as the piece fell, it was like a sharp dagger, instantly tearing through the white piece's defense!
The originally chaotic chess game suddenly became clear, it turned out that the black pieces deliberately set a trap to lure the white pieces in, and then surrounded and killed them from the rear!
——Only when you are in danger can you survive!
Xie Anbai was immediately shocked: "Your trick is too mean! Is this how you do it?"
Chen Yanchuan leaned back: "Put away the chess pieces, you can leave now."
Xie Anbai: "..."
The previous worries were indeed unnecessary. Who can be a match for such a devil?
…
"Xiao Wu, did you have fun with Master Shen?" Ye Chutang asked.
The little milk ball nodded vigorously, then shook his head.
--happy! But I am still happiest with my sister!
Ye Chutang was a little surprised.
Xiaowu's personality is different from other children. She is usually very wary of outsiders, but with Shen Yanchuan, she doesn't seem to resist and they even get along very well.
This is rare.
Xiao Wu lowered his head, took out the golden whistle that Xie An had given him for free from his arms, and held it up to show Ye Chutang.
——Sister, look! Earn money today!
Ye Chutang took the golden whistle and raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Is this a gift from his friend?"
In this era, gold is very precious. The other party is so generous when he spends it, which shows that he is of extraordinary status.
She pondered for a long time and sighed softly.
I regret it, I regret it so much!
The previous consultation fee was too little!
Judging from the generosity of Shen Yanchuan's friend, his family background must be richer than she had previously predicted. It only cost such a small amount of money to save his life. It was a big loss!
Xiaowu blinked blankly.
Why does my sister look like she isn't very happy? Could it be that he doesn't like her accepting gifts from others casually?
Xiaowu hugged her arms and rubbed her legs.
——If sister doesn’t like it, then I don’t want it and I’ll go and return it right away!
Ye Chutang curled the corners of his lips and pinched her little face.
"Mr. Shen will continue to live in our house for a while. It just so happens that your third and fourth brothers are busy with schoolwork recently and don't have much time to accompany you. If you feel bored, just go to his place."
She thinks that Chen Yanchuan is good at taking care of children.
It would be a waste if you don’t use it.
…
The next day was a sunny day.
Early in the morning, a lot of people gathered at Caishikou.
Today is the day that Liu Si will be beheaded. Such a murder has not happened in Jiangling for several years. This beheading in public naturally attracted a lot of onlookers.
The streets were crowded with people, everyone was waiting for the officers to bring Liu Si over, and it was very noisy.
Time passed, the sun rose higher, and finally it gradually approached noon.
Liu Si, who was tied up and shackled, was finally sent over.
"The murderer is coming!"
Someone in the crowd shouted, and then a piece of rotten vegetable leaf was thrown at Liu Si.
As if it had just started, the crowd became furious in an instant, some people spat at him, stones, vegetable leaves, and rotten eggs came pouring down and all fell on Liu Si.
"Kill a life for a life!"
"It's so scary. I thought he was quite honest, but who knew he was so cruel!"
"Luckily he was caught, otherwise if this murderer had continued to stay in Jiangling, who knows what else he would have done! It's so scary!"
Liu Si had already been tortured, and the prisoner's clothes on his body were dirty and filthy. At this moment, he looked even more miserable.
He lowered his head and said nothing, his face hidden under his messy hair and could not be seen clearly.
Amidst countless insults, he was taken to the execution platform.
Not far away at Cao's Restaurant, Cao Deping and his son were watching this scene from the second floor.
Although there were many twists and turns in the middle, fortunately it was still Liu Si who died in the end!
"Dad, as long as he dies, this matter will be completely over!" Cao Chengwen could not hide his excitement.
He has been living in fear every day for a while, and finally this day has come!
Cao Deping suddenly fixed his gaze and snorted, "That Ye Chutang is here too?"
Cao Chengwen followed his gaze and saw a slender and graceful figure behind the crowd.
She stood there quietly, seemingly out of tune with everything around her.
Cao Chengwen sneered: "It's good that she came. Let her see with her own eyes that my Cao family is not something she can afford to offend!
In a teahouse room on the other side of the street, Chen Yanchuan took a sip from the teacup in his hand.
“Here I come.”
Lian Zhou, who was standing behind him, didn't quite understand what his master said.
At this moment, Yang Zhen, who was sitting high on the execution platform, threw the token to the ground and shouted in a deep voice:
"Execution!"
The executioner immediately raised his knife. Liu Si, who had been silent all the time, slowly raised his head and looked around the crowd with his scarlet eyes. As expected, he did not see Zhou and the child.
A huge surge of grief and indignation surged in his heart, a hint of determination flashed across his eyes, and he shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Sir! I want to report it! The one who ordered me to kill Cao Chengwu was his half brother, Cao Chengwen!"
