"Master, am I impressive or not? Didn’t I make you lose face?" Wang Junyi asked Su Changfeng with a look of satisfaction.
"Your final caution was unnecessary. Do you really think they’d restrain themselves just because of a few words from you?" Su Changfeng replied.
Wang Junyi sighed helplessly, saying, "Of course, I know those words were redundant, but it felt great to put those arrogant guys in their place!"
"Pei An acts recklessly relying on the Pei Family, just like how you are flaunting Xingluo’s influence. Aren’t they the sa?" Su Changfeng laughed.
Wang Junyi was stunned by the words, and then retorted discontentedly, "Master, that’s definitely different. Compared to Pei An’s arrogance, I’m far more restrained, right?"
"Is that so?" Su Changfeng looked at Wang Junyi with amusent and said, "I rember you once wanted to kill , didn’t you?"
"Well..." Wang Junyi looked a bit embarrassed and was montarily speechless. If put that way, there really wasn’t much difference between him and Pei An.
"Master, I was indeed quite foolish then. How could I have known you were so skilled!"
"So, if I weren’t skilled, it would be okay to kill casually?" Su Changfeng questioned in return.
Seeing Wang Junyi at a rare loss for words, Su Changfeng sighed and said to Wang Junyi, "Unless absolutely necessary, try not to kill people. No matter how skilled you are, don’t stain your hands with too much blood. After all, life is precious, and it’s the sa for everyone."
"What if it’s absolutely necessary and there’s no other way?" Wang Junyi asked.
Su Changfeng’s voice turned cold as he replied, "Then kill."
"People do not offend , I will not offend people," has always been Su Changfeng’s principle. He doesn’t look for trouble but isn’t afraid of it either.
At this mont, the shopkeeper brought the woman over. The woman hung her head shyly, not daring to look directly at Su Changfeng.
Wang Junyi knowingly smiled, gave Su Changfeng a look that all n understood, and said, "Master, you two have a nice chat. I’ll go for a stroll and be back later. Take your ti, no rush."
Su Changfeng glared at Wang Junyi with annoyance. He had bought her not for such reasons, but simply out of compassion.
"Young girl, where is your ho?" Su Changfeng asked the girl.
The girl shook her head without answering.
"Don’t be afraid, I won’t do anything to you. Just tell where you live, and I can take you ho," Su Changfeng said.
When Su Changfeng ntioned taking her ho, the girl shivered. She was clearly scared, which puzzled Su Changfeng. Wouldn’t going ho be a good thing? Even he would prefer to rush ho. What was going on with this girl that she didn’t want to go ho?
Wang Junyi quietly explained to Su Changfeng, "Master, people like her are usually sold off by their families willingly, so even if she goes back, things probably won’t end well."
"I see. So, what should be done with her?" Su Changfeng was at a loss. Initially thinking that helping a girl out of compassion and sending her ho was a virtuous act, he hadn’t expected that she didn’t want to go ho at all. How should he arrange for her now?
"Young lady, how old are you?" Wang Junyi asked.
"Sixteen," the girl replied softly.
"Master, she’s only sixteen, what a wonderful age! If you ask , since you’ve already paid for her, why not keep her to serve you? With proper teaching, she might not let you off the bed in the future," Wang Junyi suggested lewdly.
Hehe...
In Su Changfeng’s eyes, sixteen was just a young girl, still a minor in their world. No matter how shaless he was, he certainly wouldn’t entertain such sordid thoughts.
Glaring fiercely at Wang Junyi, Su Changfeng said to the girl, "Since you don’t want to go ho, I’ll give you so more money. You can go anywhere you like, okay?"
Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, the girl imdiately knelt down.
"What do you an? Stand up quickly," Su Changfeng hastened to help her up.
"Please, sir, let stay. Otherwise, I will surely be sold again. I beg you, sir, let stay. Yu’er can do anything and will surely take good care of you."
Su Changfeng only felt a headache. He had never imagined that a mont of misplaced compassion would bring him such a big trouble. He enjoyed his current freedom, and having a young girl with him wouldn’t make any sense at all.
Besides, if Chen Qingqing saw this in the future, who knows what she would think?
"Master, just let her stay. If you abandon her like this, what good could co from it? If she stays in Qiyun City, would Pei An spare her?" Wang Junyi couldn’t help but remind him.
Upon hearing this, Su Changfeng hesitated. Wang Junyi’s concern wasn’t unreasonable. With Pei An’s nature, if this girl remained at Red Powder River, he certainly wouldn’t let her off. Su Changfeng’s montary kindness might not help her, but instead, could worsen her situation.
"Get up first," Su Changfeng said wearily.
Yu’er stood up, looking very cautious.
"What’s your na?" Su Changfeng asked.
"Qiutang Yu’er."
Qiutang Yu’er? What kind of na is that? Is there really a surna Qiutang?
In his world, Su Changfeng had never heard of soone with the surna Qiutang. Curiosity piqued his interest, whereas Wang Junyi’s expression changed instantly. He looked at Qiutang Yu’er and asked, "How did your na co about? Was it randomly chosen, or is there another reason?"
Su Changfeng’s eyes flickered with sothing. Wang Junyi seed to care a lot about the surna Qiutang. Was it really that peculiar?
Although Qiutang Yu’er was responding to Wang Junyi, her gaze never left Su Changfeng. "Yu’er has always been surnad Qiutang, but never revealed this true surna to others before," Qiutang Yu’er said.
Wang Junyi showed clear signs of shock. Su Changfeng hesitated for a mont but said nothing, instead asking Qiutang Yu’er, "You said you never revealed your true surna to others. Why tell ?"
"Yu’er thinks you are a good person, sir," Qiutang Yu’er answered.
Su Changfeng smiled. A good person, huh?
"Wang Junyi, let’s find a place to settle down first," Su Changfeng said to Wang Junyi.
Wang Junyi nodded. The boat soon docked, and they walked toward an inn.
anwhile, at the Pei Family mansion, not only were Pei An and others in the hall, but there was also an imposing middle-aged man—Pei Yu, the Yun City City Lord and Pei Rong’s brother.
"Dad, Uncle, are we really just letting today’s matter slide? I can’t swallow this anger."
Born with a silver spoon and never having bowed his head, Pei An had suffered an unprecedented blow. Even though things had reached this point, he was still unwilling to give up. If he couldn’t teach the opponent a good lesson, how could he vent his anger?
