Aping also felt strange. He had heard Tianquan say that he had gotten into a conflict with a local rich kid on the street today, so how could he still be so carefree, eating and drinking as usual?
The outsider has offended the locals!
How could the other party let it go after suffering a loss? Why aren't they worried or concerned at all?
"Oh right, Tianxuan, here you go, catch." Hong Xiaoduo was eating when she suddenly remembered something, so she took off a pouch from her waist and tossed it to Tianxuan.
Tianxuan caught it nimbly, and felt its weight in her hand: "I still have more silver here."

I had just finished lunch and put down my chopsticks when I heard someone knocking on the courtyard gate. The knocking was loud and heavy, and then it was light again.
Tian Shu got up and went out to look, but soon returned, looking rather unwell.
"Who is it?" Hong Xiaoduo asked, though she already knew the answer in her heart.
"It's that guy you kicked away this morning, he brought some people with him..."
Hearing this, A-Ping thought to himself, "What? I guessed it..."
