After the trafficker finished speaking, he snatched Su Muyao even more forcefully.
Old Su didn't dare to use too much force, for fear of hurting his granddaughter's leg.
But just as he hesitated for a moment, the human trafficker desperately snatched Su Muyao from Old Man Su's hands and pulled her into his arms.
The man stepped forward to block Old Man Su, while the woman carried Su Muyao away.
Seeing that her grandfather was no match for her, Su Muyao bit the woman's hand that was holding her.
She used all her strength, her mouth full of blood, but she didn't let go. The woman screamed in pain and threw Su Muyao away.
This was the first time Su Muyao had experienced the feeling of a parabola. She felt weightless and didn't even have time to think that her life was about to end.
Suddenly, she found herself in a small embrace.
To others, the scene was that of a young boy holding a soft, cuddly little girl standing in the middle of the road.
The guards next to the boy immediately pinned the two human traffickers to the ground.
Upon seeing this, everyone retreated. The person who could bring so many guards was clearly a member of the imperial family, someone they couldn't afford to offend.
Su Muyao immediately became infatuated with him while nestled in his arms.
"Handsome brother"
The boy's lips twitched upon hearing this. "Do you want to wipe your drool first?"
Upon hearing this, Su Muyao quickly wiped her mouth with her hand, only to find nothing there, realizing that he had rejected her.
At this moment, Su Muyao realized what was happening and patted her chest.
If it weren't for this young man, I'd probably be a meat patty by now, or at least mentally disabled.
After realizing what had happened, I felt incredibly scared.
When Old Man Su saw his granddaughter being thrown out, he was so frightened that he ran over here as fast as he could, but luckily this young master saved her.
I can't imagine what would have happened if I hadn't caught it.
Old Man Su took Su Muyao from the boy's arms and said with great gratitude, "Thank you, young master, for saving my granddaughter's life."
He then turned to look at Su Muyao in his arms and gently rubbed her head.
"Sweetie, it's okay, don't be afraid, Grandpa's here."
Su Muyao, disregarding her racing heart, quickly comforted the old man in front of her: "Grandpa, I'm alright, I wasn't scared."
My grandfather must have been terrified.
The woman then covered her bleeding hand and tried to escape, but the guards held her down so she couldn't move.
The woman looked at the person in front of her, mentally calculating how to save herself.
Suddenly, she started yelling and wailing, "Come and see! This is outrageous! God! These people are bullying us!"
The woman was forced to cry and waile on the ground, making it seem to anyone who didn't know better think she had suffered a terrible injustice.
Then the young master approached Su Muyao and asked, "Don't you recognize me?"
Su Muyao thought and thought, but she couldn't remember when she had ever seen such a handsome and wealthy man.
Suddenly noticing the jade pendant on the boy's waist, she realized that this was the young master from when the whole village went up the mountain to hide from bandits. She hadn't expected him to look even more handsome now that he was dressed up.
The boy nodded in satisfaction when he saw that the little girl remembered.
I never imagined that such a young child could still remember himself.
The man, who was being controlled by the guards, was determined to break free and run away, but how could the guards possibly let him have his way?
He was kidnapped by human traffickers when he was a child, which is why he was bought by the young master's family.
Otherwise, I don't know where I'd be wandering now. The people I hate most in this life are human traffickers.
The woman began to cry and plead with the man who was pinning her down, but when she found that the guards holding her down were unmoved, she said, "Are you trying to kidnap me because I'm young and pretty?"
Upon hearing this, the guard turned his head away in disgust. Putting aside the fact that he hadn't even looked at the woman's appearance, the smell alone almost made him vomit.
At this time, the county officials arrived and, after clarifying the situation, took the man and woman away.
As the crowd gradually dispersed, Old Man Su finally calmed down and looked at the young master, saying, "Thank you so much for saving my life today, young master. I don't know how to thank you enough."
“No need,” he said, turning to Su Muyao. “Little girl, we’re even now.”
After saying this, he was about to leave when he found his sleeve being tugged. He stopped and turned to look at Su Muyao.
Then the little figure took out a small porcelain bottle from somewhere.
"Handsome brother, this is a lifesaver. If you get seriously injured in the future, this might save your life. Be sure to keep it with you at all times. There's only one of these, and if you lose it, you'll never have another one."
Only then did she release her grip on the boy's sleeve.
Su Muyao was truly grateful to this young man for saving her life; it would be a miracle if she hadn't survived at that moment.
Although giving away the spiritual spring water was risky, this person was still grateful, especially since it saved his life, so he trusted his intuition.
The boy opened the small porcelain bottle, smelled it but couldn't smell anything; it looked like just a liquid.
He put the stopper back into the mouth of the small porcelain bottle and tucked it into his sleeve.
Little did he know that this seemingly ordinary thing would, not long after, actually save his life.
That was the most lethal sword strike, but unexpectedly, it was saved by the water in such a small porcelain bottle.
Only after the boy said goodbye did Old Man Su carry Su Muyao back home.
I held on even tighter the whole way, not daring to linger in crowded places.
On the way back, Su Muyao also talked about the young master she met on the road when she and Su Sanlang went to find the Wolf King.
When Su Muyao got home, she saw Grandma Su chopping bright red chilies. Looking at the chopped chilies, Su Muyao felt her mouth water.
On their way back, Old Man Su and Su Muyao had already agreed not to tell Old Lady Su about what happened today, so as not to cause her unnecessary worry.
When Grandma Su saw her precious child return, she asked, "My dear child, do you think Grandma did the right thing?"
"That's right."
Old Su also came over to take a look, and even picked up a little with his chopsticks and put it in his mouth, immediately feeling a numbing and spicy sensation on his tongue.
"Sweetie, this is the chili sauce you were talking about. The color is quite vibrant."
"Grandma, let's make steamed fish head with chopped chili peppers today."
Old Su slapped his thigh and said, "My dear child, we can only eat this fish head next time. We didn't buy any fish."
Su Muyao gave her grandfather a wink.
Grandpa Su and Grandma Su instantly understood. It was truly amazing that their little granddaughter was going to conjure fish out of thin air again. They still weren't used to their granddaughter's method of creating things out of thin air after all this time.
He took out a large fish and told his grandmother how to steam the fish head.
"Alright, Grandma will give it a try, but I don't know if it will taste good."
"Don't worry, Grandma, it'll definitely taste good," the little dumpling said, licking its lips.
Grandma Su found the chopped chili sauce quite appetizing and thought that the dishes she made probably wouldn't taste too bad.
Grandma Su was a diligent person. After Su Muyao brought out the fish for her, she quickly began to clean it, and couldn't help but marvel at how big the fish was.
Grandma Su covered the fish with her hand, and with a swift motion, chopped off the fish's head.
