Qin Yi saw this and didn't insist further.
"Little troublemaker, we've been out for quite so ti now. I bet your grandfather is worried sick looking for you. Let's head back."
Liang Qingqing shook her head repeatedly, "I don't want to go back. Who knows when I'll get to co out again?"
Qin Yi chuckled, "This is just wilderness, nothing fun around here. How about this, I'll take you back to the city where we can go to the marketplace, lots of fun stuff to see and eat there."
"Okay!" Liang Qingqing was imdiately interested.
Actually, Qin Yi was a bit hungry too, and figured Liang Qingqing must be as well.
Qin Yi took Liang Qingqing back to the city. First, they bought so shoes, then wandered around the marketplace.
It was clear that Liang Qingqing rarely went out; she found everything fascinating.
Qin Yi took her to sample all the snacks in the marketplace, making Liang Qingqing delighted, her smile blossoming like a flower.
"Oh hero, I want another bowl."
Qin Yi looked at the two empty bowls in front of her and laughed, "Soone who doesn't know might think your grandfather is starving you, not giving you food to eat."
"This tofu pudding is so delicious, better than what our chef at ho makes."
"Boss, another bowl of tofu pudding." Qin Yi called to the boss, then said to Liang Qingqing, "The most authentic flavors are always from these roadside stalls."
"It's a pity I can't co out often." Liang Qingqing pouted unhappily.
Qin Yi chuckled, "No problem, I'll let you eat to your heart's content today."
"Can I have two bowls then?"
"Can your little belly handle it?"
"Don't underestimate , I might just be able to eat it."
Qin Yi laughed, "Alright, eat as much as you like, ten bowls even."
"Oh hero, I want to eat candied haws."
"Oh hero, look, this bracelet is so pretty."
"Oh hero, this plum juice is just too delicious!"
Qin Yi felt speechless listening to Liang Qingqing's chatter. As the young lady of the War General Mansion, born with a golden spoon and enjoying the finest luxuries, how is she acting like a refugee?
"Bang!"
A sound of collision and screams rang out.
Qin Yi and Liang Qingqing turned their heads to see the tofu pudding stall owner they were just patronizing being kicked to the ground by a lavishly dressed youth.
The stall owner crashed into tables and chairs, clutching his stomach in pain and groaning on the ground.
The youth looked disdainful, followed by several robust n in rough clothing who seed to be his henchn.
"Old man, no one has ever dared to talk back to this young master. Are you tired of living?" The youth said, full of hostility.
"Hey, old codger, hand over the money quickly, or we'll wreck your stall and break your legs." One of the henchn with arms crossed said to the stall owner lying on the ground.
The stall owner curled up on the ground in pain, trembling as he said, "Sirs, there's really no money left. The cash box is over there, see for yourselves, I'm not lying."
One henchman stepped forward and pulled out a wooden box from under the stall, which contained only a few silver coins, still the paynt Qin Yi had given earlier.
"Damn it, that's all? You must be looking for death, trying to fool us?" The henchman snarled viciously.
The stall owner was so scared he shrank into a ball, trembling as he said, "Sirs, there's really no money left. The money earned has all been given to you, please spare this old man."
"Young master, this old thing must have hidden the money sowhere." One henchman said.
The youth nodded, glancing contemptuously at the stall owner, "Beat him up, beat him until he hands over the money. If he doesn't hand it over, then beat him to death."
The henchn, with vicious expressions, rolled up their sleeves and surrounded the stall owner.
People around stopped to watch, showing sympathy for the stall owner, but no one dared to step forward and intervene.
"Stop."
Qin Yi was slightly stunned, instinctively looking at Liang Qingqing.
Liang Qingqing stepped forward, angrily looking at the youth and his henchn, "How can you bully an elderly person like that?"
The youth looked at Liang Qingqing's pretty face, his eyes flickered, then scoffed, "Oh, here's a ddler, and a little beauty at that."
Saying this, the youth took a step forward, getting close to Liang Qingqing, with a leering grin, "Little beauty, this isn't sothing you can ddle with. How about this, later you co play with ?"
The youth ca too close, and Liang Qingqing instinctively backed away, "Don't co so close to ."
The youth sneered, "Little beauty slls so nice, this young master can't resist, just wants to get close to you." With that, he continued to approach Liang Qingqing step by step.
Liang Qingqing had to retreat step by step.
"Don't co any closer, I'll hit you, I'm quite capable."
The youth sneered, "Little beauty can hit people? Then hit this young master, just think of it as giving a massage."
"Oh hero, he...he's bullying people." Liang Qingqing helplessly looked at Qin Yi for help.
Qin Yi was speechless, this girl is at least the lady of War General Mansion, the entire Flying Dragon City is practically hers, yet she's scared stiff by a hooligan. That old man Liang Feilong has really failed to raise this child.
Qin Yi stepped forward, standing between the youth and Liang Qingqing.
The youth looked at Qin Yi's handso face and felt a pang of jealousy. Apparently, not only won compare looks, but n do too.
"Scram!" The youth's face darkened, "Do you know who this young master is? Dare stand in my way, believe it or not, I can have your legs broken."
"You should apologize to this old gentleman and then you may leave. You can't defeat the hero." Liang Qingqing peeked out from behind Qin Yi and said.
Qin Yi: "..."
This silly girl is way too naive. You're the young lady of War General Mansion, your grandfather has spent his life in the military, commanding troops, not saying you should just walk unchecked in Flying Dragon City, but you don't have to be so polite with a few thugs, do you?
The youth looked dismissively at Qin Yi, "Hero? Pretty boy, is she your woman?"
Before Qin Yi could say anything, the youth continued, "This little beauty is wanted by this young master. Here's a chance, crawl through my legs and I'll let you go. Otherwise, you won't leave here alive today."
Qin Yi's eyes grew cold, truly asking for trouble.
He turned to Liang Qingqing, holding her hand, and smiled, "He said if you hit him, it's like giving him a massage, right? Then let's give this waste a massage."
With that, he pulled Liang Qingqing's hand and slapped it down on the youth's shoulder.
"Crack!"
The piercing sound of bone cracking made everyone present shiver, feeling chilled to the bone.
"Ah..." The youth let out a shrill scream.
His shoulder was shattered with that slap.
Liang Qingqing was petrified, her body trembling, never mind shattering a person's shoulder, she had never hurt even a small animal.
"Young master."
The henchn disregarded the stall owner and hurried over, two of them supporting the youth, the others eyeing Qin Yi and Liang Qingqing with aggression.
