"Miss."
Seeing this, Lühe looked at Ye Jintang.
Ye Jintang gave a soft "hmm" and walked to the woman's side. Lühe had already helped her up and asked with a puzzled look, "What happened, ma'am?"
"My daughter was kidnapped by those beasts at Zuixianju."
"Girls, can you help me?"
In her panic, the woman saw Ye Jintang and Lühe as if she had grasped a lifeline.
“Drunken Immortal Abode? Isn’t that…” Green Lotus seemed to think of something, and a look of hesitation appeared on her face.
Ye Jintang's expression was equally serious. In the original owner's memory, Zuixianju was one of the three shops that used to be a restaurant.
However, it was later taken over by Wang Bao, the son of the old lady's sister, and the name was changed to Zuixianju.
Noticing the gazes around them, Ye Jintang said to Lühe, "Help this old lady to the teahouse over there first."
They were standing right on the street, and the woman's cries had already drawn the attention of many people.
The woman knew that Ye Jintang was a capable person, and she looked at her with gratitude.
After arriving at the teahouse, the woman recounted what had happened.
Ye Jintang frowned as she listened. At first, the original owner was also worried that something might happen when she heard that the old lady wanted to hand over the restaurant to a relative to run.
However, those people repeatedly assured the original owner, and with the pressure from Jiang Mubai's mother, the original owner had no choice but to give up.
Unexpectedly, these people not only renamed the restaurant "Drunken Immortal Abode," but also turned it into a chaotic mess, even going so far as to abduct women from the streets.
Green Lotus clenched her fists, furious. "These people have gone too far! Didn't anyone report what they did to the authorities?"
What puzzled them most was that this matter had not reached the Marquis's residence.
If they hadn't witnessed this today, they probably still wouldn't know.
The woman sighed helplessly, "As you all saw just now, the passersby didn't even dare to come forward. As for the government offices, they are just bullies who prey on the weak and fear the strong."
“Wang Bao’s distant cousin is Lord Jiang, who just quelled the rebellion, and Zuixianju is owned by General Ye’s daughter, now the Lady of the Marquis. With this connection, who would dare to interfere in this matter?”
"Since the government is not doing its job, have you never thought of going to the Marquis's residence?"
"The Marquis's residence is heavily guarded; it's not a place where people like us can get close. I heard that recently someone who wanted to seek justice from the Marquis's wife was directly thrown out."
Good heavens, Wang Bao's actions ultimately shifted all the blame onto the original owner of the body. No wonder the original owner of the body suffered so much in the book.
It turns out that there were other people behind the scenes who were pushing things along.
Since she's here, she can't just stand by and do nothing about it.
Otherwise, if things escalate, you'll be the one taking the blame.
"Young lady, can you help me?"
After recounting the events, the woman's eyes were filled with pleading.
“Of course,” Ye Jintang replied.
The restaurant is her property, and she wants to take it back; she will not tolerate such a thing happening.
"Auntie, please tell me your daughter's name. This will make it easier for us to find her."
Upon hearing Ye Jintang's agreement, Lühe then spoke to the woman.
"Her name is Xiaohe, and she has a red mole on the corner of her mouth."
“Girls, if you can rescue my daughter, I’ll serve you like a slave from now on.”
The woman was surprised that Ye Jintang and Lühe would agree to her so readily, and in her excitement, she pretended to kneel down before them.
"Auntie, you can go back now. I promise you your daughter will be back by tomorrow morning."
Ye Jintang said.
"Girls, then...then you must be careful."
Although the woman was grateful to Ye Jintang, they were both women and their safety was equally important.
After leaving the teahouse, Lühe followed closely beside Ye Jintang and asked her, "Miss, I've heard of this Wang Bao before. He's a notorious rogue. If we go directly to him, it might not work."
In the past two years, thanks to Wang Bao's management, even though the restaurant actually belongs to Ye Jintang, going there would inevitably lead to danger.
After a moment's thought, Green Lotus said to Ye Jintang, "Miss, why don't we let this servant go and investigate before taking any action?"
"No need."
Ye Jintang replied that, according to the woman's description, Wang Bao had been snatching any beautiful woman he saw who had no family background recently.
Once a person falls completely into the hands of the other party, they will never have a good ending.
The longer the delay, the more dangerous it will be for Xiaohe and the other kidnapped women.
As for Wang Bao, having the guts to do such a thing, reasoning with him is futile.
Meow……
Just then, a black cat suddenly darted in front of them. Green Lotus was startled by the sudden appearance of the creature, and before she could speak, Ye Jintang squatted down.
Meow meow meow.
I've found where those people are being held.
well done.
Ye Jintang spoke softly, and when she looked up, she met Lü He's shocked gaze.
Green Lotus quickly looked around, and only after confirming that there was no one else besides them did she ask nervously, "Miss... can you understand what this cat is saying?"
Ye Jintang gave her a profound and inscrutable look.
Green Lotus immediately understood, and without asking any further questions, she patted her chest.
"Miss, I will never tell anyone else."
Ye Jintang chuckled. It seemed that Lühe was quite receptive to explanations.
This saved me a lot of trouble.
Led by the black cat, Ye Jintang brought Lühe to a small alley.
[The back entrance to Zuixianju is just across this alley, but it's guarded, so be careful.]
The black cat meowed.
Ye Jintang remained calm and showed no intention of stopping there, continuing all the way to the backyard of the restaurant.
As soon as they approached, a guard with a knife jumped out from the shadows, looking them over warily. "Who are you? Why are you here?"
Green Lotus immediately stood in front of Ye Jintang to protect her.
As you can see, the next second, Ye Jintang simply raised her hand, and several silver needles flew out, causing not only the guards in front of her, but also those hiding elsewhere to check the situation to fall down.
Green Lotus stared wide-eyed, dumbfounded by what she saw.
The black cat was equally stunned; it had been thinking that it was rare to encounter a human who could understand them.
Nothing can happen to her, and most importantly, this beautiful woman and the delicious dried fish are still there.
I never expected it to be this powerful!
Do you know where they are being held?
Ye Jintang looked at the black cat and asked again.
The black cat nodded rapidly and led Ye Jintang inside.
Not far away, Ye Ling and Leng Yi, who were with her, were also surprised by Ye Jintang's move.
"Master...Master, this Miss Ye is simply too amazing."
Leng Yi's voice trembled. He hadn't even seen how Ye Jintang made her move. Luckily, he hadn't offended this Miss Ye back then.
Leng Yi suddenly thought of a sentence.
Otherwise... you wouldn't even know how you died.
Ye Ling curled her lips into a smile, her eyes full of admiration.
"Get rid of those people on the ground."
