The man stared at Su Liuer quietly for a few seconds before raising his hand and gently patting her hand twice, which was unexpectedly gentle.
This reminded Su Liuer of a song that her rough comrades loved to sing: I'm ugly, but I'm gentle!
"What are you thinking about?" The man frowned. How could he be distracted when she was begging him?
Su Liuer blinked pitifully: "I'm thinking about how to get you to help me..." Otherwise, she would have to kill all these people before the old man and his son were killed, which was too difficult.
Although these people did not kill anyone this time, they all had murderous intent and had lives on their hands, so they deserved to die.
However, unless she had to, Su Liuer didn't want to have her hands stained with human life.
After all, in this life she just wants to be an ordinary rich woman.
The man couldn't tell that the pitiful woman had the intention of killing them all at any time. He only saw her face wrinkled slightly and she was about to cry. He felt like a bully.
"Brother, let's let our own people drive this donkey cart." The man did not answer Su Liuer, but directly proposed to the bandit leader.
The bandit leader was born rough, with a scar on his face that extended diagonally from his left eye to his right shoulder. His left eye was blocked by the scar and could not be opened, so he had one eye.
He turned around to look at the man who made the suggestion, and after just a glance, he ordered the people below: "Listen to the third brother!"
The old donkey-head and his son were thrown off the donkey cart. They were just not far from Su Liuer and heard what Su Liuer said. At this moment, the two of them fell to the ground in a mess, and their eyes turned to Su Liuer at the same time.
Su Liuer shook her head secretly at the two of them and mouthed: Let's go.
Old Donkey also knew that if he followed the bandits up the mountain, he and his son would surely die today. Now it was Su Liuer who had earned a glimmer of hope for them!
He reached out and held his son down, telling him not to make a sound. Now was not the time to be a hero or to show loyalty, otherwise all Su Liuer's efforts would be in vain. Perhaps, if she remained calm in the face of danger, she would have a better chance of survival alone.
Su Liuer was very satisfied with the old donkey's reaction. Fortunately, he was not a stupid teammate, otherwise her beauty trap would have been wasted.
Having achieved her goal, Su Liuer quietly wanted to take her hand back.
"Huh? They're not truly safe yet." The man's low and hoarse voice came, an obvious threat.
Okay, Su Liuer isn’t moving, so just hold her. It’s not like she’ll lose any meat.
The woman's contentment did not make the man feel better. She didn't know who he was now, but she was very concerned about her life.
Su Liuer felt a hint of disgust from the man next to her. She blinked innocently. Wasn't she already very obedient?
"Hmph." The man snorted briefly and unhappily, pulling Su Liuer onto the horse.
Su Liuer was held up by the man's waist. The man behind her squeezed the horse's belly and the horse ran away. Inertia made her lean tightly against the man's arms. The man held her waist with one hand and the reins with the other. The low breathing sound mixed with the wind came into her ears.
The bandits came suddenly and left suddenly, taking away most of the money in Anning Village. The Ning family, as a wealthy family, was also seriously injured. However, these bandits still had some humanity. They did not kill people, nor did they personally turn every household upside down.
Every household left something behind, at least the food was still there.
Those who came from other villages to help were even luckier, as they only lost a few copper coins. One of the cooks was about to go home happily when someone suddenly pushed her from behind, causing her to fall to the ground, breaking a front tooth and making her mouth bloody.
“Who is it?”
