Chapter 425 Xuan Siyu
The girl conflicts with the peddler and even turns over his booth, running in the same groove as Shao Shuai.
“Are there so many conflicts in the black market?” Gao Ge talks and walks towards the girl.
“Help! Help!” The peddler who is knocked down on the ground immediately shouts.
Some more people gather here.
Gao Ge is confused why so many cultivators like coming along for the ride.
They must be too bored!
“Let go of me!” With her leg held by the peddler, she becomes angry and ashamed. Then she gives him a kick, sending him flying away. Lying on the ground, the peddler spits blood.
Well, she may be Shao San’s sister!
They act so similarly...
“Help! Somebody help me...” Spit blood as he did, the peddler is still spirited.
Evidently, the girl hasn’t exerted all her strength.
“Alas! Girl, we are at the black market. How can you make trouble here?”
“Yeah, do you show any respect for the rules of the black market?”
The several nearby peddlers start to chime in.
The passers-by don’t mutter randomly. As an excellent cultivator, they must have blinders on. If they always have a strong sense of justice and get ready to help the weak, they will die an early death for sure.
However, the peddlers are not like them. They must unite as one and confront the outsiders.
“Do you need any help?” Gao Ge asks.
The girl looks at him with embarrassment and explains, “It is not that I want to make trouble. This peddler wants to swindle me and sell the crap to me by force.”
“What?”
The girl blushes again.
She is thinking about one thing.
Why does she explain the reason of her beating the peddler to Gao Ge?
This is none of his business at all!
Gao Ge coughs and says, “Then we are the justifiable side. No need to be afraid of them.”
“We?” The girl is surprised.
“Yeah, we live under the same roof!” Gao Ge says smilingly.
The painting and the incense burner gained by the girl are both valuable, so he kind of has a good opinion of her.
In that small house, Shao Shuai is a complicated man with queer character, who looks seemingly heartless and yet has a lot on his mind.
As to Wang Lai, he is rather polite and hospitable, who seems to satisfy all the imagination of ordinary people on a chivalrous man. However, it is not the truth. He may be big-hearted and easy-going, but after he learnt about Shao Shuai’s identity, he has adjusted his attitude towards Shao Shuai. Of course, it is neither good nor bad. His reaction is quite normal.
Yet, this girl is relatively simple-minded, who is easier to get along with.
It is not because she is pretty!
Gao Ge can swear to God!
“Go away!” Shao Shuai walks to them and shouts, “I’ve just beaten a peddler seriously. Do you want to be the second one beaten by me?”
The peddler sits on the ground and doesn’t believe him, “Hum. Are you kidding?”
Shao Shuai gets mad.
Why do a lot of people believe his lies while few people believe him when he tells the truth?
As such, Shao Shuai suddenly understands one life philosophy.
Now in the world, lies are always trustable than truths.
“Mr. Shao, leave it to me.” Zhang Guang’s voice suddenly comes from behind.
Shao Shuai suddenly turns around and looks at Zhang Guang. Zhang Guang feels so nervous. He cannot just give Shao Shuai a kowtow but his anxiety is obviously shown.
“Is everything settled?” Shao Shuai stares at Shao San and asks.
Shao San nods his head, “Young Master, problem solved.”
“Good.” Shao Shuai looks at Zhang Guang, saying, “This guy wants to sell his crap to my friend by force. It is not right to fight in the black market but he has violated the rules, hasn’t he?”
“Of course he has.” Zhang Guang wipes the sweat off his forehead and says, “Mr. Shao, how do you think we should deal with him?”
“It is up to you how to deal with him.” Shao Shuai says.
“Okay.” Zhang Guang immediately turns around and orders, “Take this man away!”
“Yes!”
Two men of the Zhang Family come forward and hold the peddler up from the ground.
The peddler finally comes to his senses and realizes that he has offended somebody he should have pissed off. In a hurry he shouts, “Lord Zhang, please spare my life! I am so sorry...” He is not an idiot. Judging from Zhang Guang’s attitude towards Shao Shuai, he can understand that. Shao Shuai’s “up to you” can have him killed.
Maybe if Zhang Guang only breaks his legs and arms, Shao Shuai will feel that Zhang Guang fails to meet his expectation!
“Slap!” Zhang Guang rushes forward and slaps the peddler in the face. Just like a mad beast, he shouted with red eyes, “Are you blind? Mr. Shao is here. How can you call me as Lord? Take him away!”
Regardless of the peddler’s harsh screams, Zhang Guang walks to the girl and says, “Miss, did you suffer any loss?”
“I’m fine.” The girl shakes her head and feels sympathetic for the peddler, saying, “Let go of him. I don’t suffer any loss. Don’t be too harsh on him.”
It is mainly because the peddler shouts about having aging parents and children to support when he is dragged away.
Such lines are often heard on TV, but on second thought, if this man is dead, it will be a sin that his parents, wife and children are left alone and unattended.
“Well...” Zhang Guang looks to Shao Shuai subconsciously.
Shao Shuai shakes his fan and says smilingly, “It’s okay. Since Miss Xuan says so, just let it be.”
“Okay!” Zhang Guang feels greatly relieved.
He is not afraid to have no solution but to be sandwiched.
“You... know my surname is Xuan?” The girl turns around to look at Shao Shuai in surprise.
“Haha. I didn’t know before but I am sure now!” Shao Shuai turns around to look at Gao Ge, “How is that? Ge Qian, I guess it right.”
Gao Ge nods his head.
“Fine. I don’t care. I also know who you are but I just didn’t expect that you had the courage to come to the black market.”
“Even you dare to come here. Why can’t I?” Shao Shuai says smilingly.
“Hum.” The girl snorts and looks at Gao Ge, saying, “Thank you.”
Shao Shuai is disgruntled, “Hey, Miss Xuan, I am the one who helps you.”
The girl doesn’t respond to him.
Shao Shuai puts on a long face.
Crap. Why does she treat them differently? It can’t be due to the face. Gao Ge is wearing a mask!
“Let’s grab a bite somewhere.” Gao Ge says, “And we will go to the auction together this afternoon.”
“Okay.”
The girl thinks it over and agrees with a nod.
“By the way, is your name really Ge Qian?” The girl asks.
“Yeah... Does it matter?”
“No...” The girl wanted to say yes. After all, she doesn’t know his appearance. If she can’t know about his real name either, she will not know who he is after the black market ends. However, as a girl, she is too shy to ask that. Thinking back and forth, she comes up with an idea, saying, “My name is Xuan Siyu.”
“Well. Nice to meet you, Miss Xuan.”
She doesn’t feel like talking with him anymore, furious and annoyed.
