Despite saying that, Xiahou Meng still paid the money he was owed.
Seeing her like this, An Wanwan didn't say anything. She accepted the money and gave her a bowl of homemade fruit shaved ice.
"This looks nice, I'll take it. I'll give you the bowl and spoon tomorrow."
Xiahou Meng was overjoyed and left their shop with a smile, carrying her fruit shaved ice.
An Miaomiao always speaks her mind. Seeing how good An Wanwan was to her, she said, "Wanwan, are you my sister or her sister? Why are you so good to her?"
Are you jealous?
After finishing her sentence, An Wanwan continued, "Isn't there a saying that 'Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated'? Since she comes from the capital and is Nangong Ying's nominal fiancée, it's not a bad thing for me to befriend her. That way, I can find out what we want to know."
Before An Miaomiao could say anything...
An Wanwan patted her shoulder and said, "Don't worry, in my heart no one can surpass you."
"Wanwan."
An Miaomiao hugged her tightly.
An Wanwan patted her back and said, "Okay, okay, let go of me now, otherwise people might start to overthink things. They might think we're having an affair. I'm straight."
An Miaomiao chuckled.
This way.
Xiahou Meng ate fruit shaved ice as she walked back to her inn. Not long after returning to the inn, she felt hungry again and went out once more.
I bought some snacks.
Finished eating.
Xiahou Meng felt a little better.
As she was about to wander around other places, she suddenly saw two men sneaking into an alley. Feeling curious, she quickly followed them.
A short while later.
Xiahou Meng caught up with them and overheard their conversation.
"Third brother, this is it, don't move. Eldest brother said An Cheng is going to take measurements and make furniture today, he'll be passing by here in a bit, so we'll just wait here. When he comes, we'll smother him until he's unconscious, then drug him..."
"Second brother, is this really a good idea? Doesn't An Cheng look down on our little sister? If we do this, what if he doesn't marry her after we've already made it a fait accompli?"
"He dares..."
What? They're plotting against An Cheng?
Is the An Cheng they're talking about the same An Cheng she knows?
Thinking of this.
Xiahou Meng decided to wait and see.
Half an hour passed.
An Cheng walked out from one of the alleys. As soon as he turned into the alley, the two men from before rushed up and covered him.
But unexpectedly.
An Cheng had noticed them long ago. He grabbed one of them by the hand, threw him to the ground with an over-the-shoulder throw.
As another rushed over, a sweeping leg swept him to the ground.
Xiahou Meng's eyes widened instantly. An Cheng looked weak, but that was not the case at all. He was quite agile.
I originally thought...
They definitely won't be able to do anything to An Cheng now.
result.
The next moment, something terrible happened.
As An Cheng approached, one of the men suddenly threw out a handful of powder.
Because they didn't dodge in time.
An Cheng was immediately affected. He had only taken a few steps when he started to feel dizzy and began to stagger.
"An Cheng, I thought you were really something, but it turns out you're not that great."
They caught An Cheng when he fell to the ground, then lifted him up and ran.
Xiahou Meng narrowed her eyes and chased after them. Under their surprised gazes, she quickly pressed the pressure points on the two brothers, picked up An Cheng, and put him on the ground to the side.
"An Cheng, An Cheng, wake up..."
Xiahou Meng called for An Cheng for a while but he didn't wake up, so she went to ask the two brothers for the antidote.
No, no.
Both brothers shook their heads.
Xiahou Meng then pressed their pressure points again, kicked each of them once, and then sat down next to An Cheng.
