Chen Yuan'er didn't know where she got the courage from, but she actually followed the strange man in front of her. She followed the hunter silently, but her mind was full of random thoughts, wondering if this man was a bad person, would he do something outrageous to her, would he sell her out...
Although she was thinking and worried in her mind, Shen Yuan'er did not hesitate at all. She followed the hunter closely, but did not get too close. She kept a distance, thinking that if the other party did something bad to her, she would run away.
"Girl, you look so noble, you must be from the city." The hunter asked, turning his head.
"Ah, yes." Shen Yuaner's thoughts were suddenly pulled back and she responded in a panic.
At this moment, the hunter suddenly stopped and pointed at the path in front of him. He said, "Girl, I will take you here. I am a girl and I am taking you home. If you are seen, you will be criticized. I am a rough man, so it is not a big deal. But your reputation is important. Just follow this path. It won't take a few hours and you will reach the city gate before dark."
Shen Yuaner nodded. Although this man appeared a little rude on the outside, from his conversation and interactions along the way, Shen Yuaner discovered that this man had good character, even more decent than those rich young men in the capital.
Chen Yuaner saluted the hunter and said, "Sir, I would like to thank you for your farewell. If you need anything in the future, please come to the Chen Mansion in the city to find me. I will do my best to repay your kindness. I wonder if you could tell me your name so that we can meet again in the future."
"Miss Shen, you're too kind. I'm just a country bumpkin, so I don't need anything. Besides, helping you is my pleasure, and I don't need anything in return. I'll be relieved if you return home safely. As for my name, it's not that important. If we're destined to meet again, we can talk about it next time. It's getting late, so you'd better leave quickly, or the sun will set."
Shen Yuaner was a little disappointed when she heard that the other party was unwilling to reveal his name, but it was not convenient for her to ask any further questions, so she said nothing more. The hunter turned around and left in a very casual manner, passing by Shen Yuaner.
Chen Yuan'er set out to return to the city. After taking two steps, she felt as if she was stepping on something. She lowered her head and found that it was a jade pendant. After picking it up, she recognized at a glance that the rope tied to the jade pendant was made of the same material as the hunter's clothes. She thought that the jade pendant must have been lost by him accidentally.
She wanted to return the jade pendant to her benefactor, but when she turned around, she found that the person had disappeared. She looked around as if the person had never appeared. She lowered her head and carefully stroked the jade pendant in her hand. She took out a handkerchief from her arms and spread it out. Then she carefully wrapped it on the handkerchief and put it back in her arms, thinking that she would have a chance to return it in the future, and continued walking forward.
Li Han and Lu Li, who Chen Yuan'er couldn't find, were now wandering around outside the city gate bored. After all, they could be said to be homeless vagrants. Fortunately, they had some silver on them, so they could find a place to stay, otherwise they might have to sleep on the streets.
The two of them temporarily stayed in an inn, waiting for the emperor to notify them to return to the palace. At this moment, the system that had not been seen for a long time suddenly appeared.
"Hello, little cutie, long time no see, did you miss me?"
Li Han rolled his eyes and snorted, "I don't want to."
Li Han got angry when he thought of this unreliable system. When he felt like he was going to die, he called for a long time but there was no response. Now he suddenly appeared when nothing happened. It must be nothing good.
The system coughed awkwardly a few times. "Alright, if you don't miss me, then I'll miss you, right? I've been busy upgrading lately, so I'm not here. I came to see you as soon as I finished the upgrade."
Li Han didn't believe such sweet talk at all. "Come on, if someone shows kindness for no reason, he's either a traitor or a thief. Tell me, you came out this time to assign me another task, right?"
"You're so smart! Since you've guessed it, I won't beat around the bush. This time, the mission is simple: get Lu Li to confess his feelings to you."
"Confession?" Li Han's mind suddenly exploded when he heard the word, "Tell me again, who confessed to me?"
"Lu Li! Who else could it be? You've been trying to capture him for so long. It's time to close the net and see if all your efforts have been in vain."
"Oh, I'll take your shitty network. I think the more you upgrade, the more problems you have. I won't do it. If you want to do it, do it yourself." Li Han was speechless with the system. This task was really too tiring.
"Stay tuned for good news!" The system seemed to ignore Li Han's complaints and disappeared without giving her any prompts.
Li Han stood there in a daze, really not knowing how to complete this task. He didn't know where to start. After thinking for a while, Li Han just came up with an old-fashioned hero-saving-beauty scenario, hoping to open up Lu Li's Ren and Du meridians and complete the task.
Li Han pretended to go out shopping, saying that she was planning to buy some necessities for the next few days. Lu Li originally wanted to go with her, fearing that Li Han might get into danger, but Li Han said that nothing was wrong and asked Li Han not to follow, also fearing that Lu Li would disrupt his plans.
After going out, Li Han saw some beggars in the corner. She walked up to them, took out some silver and said to them: "I want you to do something for me. As long as you do it, this silver will be yours."
Li Han told the beggars his plan, asking them to pretend to be robbers and catch him, and then inform Lu Li that he had been captured by a group of strange people and ask him to rescue him quickly.
As expected, when Lu Li learned that Li Han had been captured, he immediately panicked and, without caring about anything else, hurried out to look for Li Han.
Li Han and a group of beggars dressed as robbers were waiting for Lu Li in the woods. In order to make the scene more realistic, Li Han asked them to tie their hands and feet.
However, what Li Han did not expect was that these beggars actually turned their fake behavior into reality and began to have bad intentions towards her and started to touch Li Han in an inappropriate manner.
"What do you want to do?" Li Han looked at the obscene look on the face of the person in front of him and suddenly panicked.
"What do you think we want to do?"
The group of beggars slowly approached Li Han and suddenly laughed lewdly. They didn't know that Li Han was a princess, they just regarded her as an ordinary rich lady, so they had evil thoughts and wanted to run away after having sex with her.
Li Han didn't expect that the trap she set for Lu Li would actually trap herself first. She felt like crying but had no tears. She just hoped that Lu Li could come quickly, otherwise she would be in great danger.
