Xie Shizi's shameless daily life
Chapter 47 Chapter 47
Li Yi glanced at Zhao Shu and continued, "That place is heavily guarded, and every blind spot is guarded. I was discovered by them when I came out, and they chased me all the way. I just shook them off. According to the time, they should be here soon."
Zhao Shu's heart tightened, and she took out the banknote hidden in her sleeve and handed it to Li Yi: "Take a few."
Li Yi took it and put it directly into his arms without counting.
Zhao Shu watched this scene without saying anything, nodded at him, turned around and left.
When she was about to turn out of the alley, she suddenly turned around. Li Yi saw her dark eyes staring at him, and she opened her red lips slightly: "Be careful."
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and walked quickly to the other end of the alley.
It was originally a relationship of money and goods. Since he took her money, he should do her job well and bear the corresponding consequences. There is no such thing as advancing and retreating together. The right thing to do is to save each other's lives.
Li Yi didn't stay there for long. He tapped the corner of the wall and landed on the wall of someone else's house. After a few jumps, he landed from the wall of this house to the wall of another house. Finally, he gradually turned into a small black dot until he could no longer be seen.
On the other hand, Zhao Shu didn’t have as good Qinggong as Li Yi, so she could only rely on her feet to keep walking quickly.
There was a slight noise coming from the intersection ahead. If Zhao Shu hadn't been extremely focused, she wouldn't have noticed it at all.
Zhao Shu slowed down her pace, grasped the sides of her skirt with both hands, then immediately let go and walked with a calm expression.
Two tall and thin men quickly rushed past Zhao Shu. As she heard the footsteps gradually moving away, her clenched nerves suddenly relaxed.
Zhao Shu took a deep breath and continued walking forward with her stiff legs.
"Young lady!" someone called from behind.
Hearing the shout, Zhao Shu's whole body stiffened. She didn't even look back and just kept walking stiffly.
"Girl in front, wait!" the call came again.
Zhao Shu didn't dare to look back, she quickened her pace and kept walking forward.
Seeing that the street market was just around the corner, Zhao Shu walked faster and faster!
A gust of wind blew beside me, and the road ahead was blocked by a wall of people.
Zhao Shu raised her head and took a half step back, but unexpectedly she bumped into another human wall. Her shoulders shrank involuntarily and she stepped back to the side.
Zhao Shu curled up her ten toes again and again, and after a while, she bowed to the two people in front of her.
"Yo!" The two men laughed in an indecent manner.
Zhao Shu: "What's the matter, brothers?"
"It's okay. I just want to ask if you saw a man just now?" One of the men looked at her with ill intention.
Zhao Shu thought for a moment, then said as if she had thought of something, "Is it a ragged man?"
The two men's eyes lit up and they asked, "Where is the person?"
Zhao Shu pointed her slender hand deep into the alley: "It went over there."
The man turned around and was about to walk towards the alley, but his companion stopped him, looked at him with a suggestive look, and then looked at Zhao Shu in a lewd way.
The man understood instantly.
The men stopped chasing the person they were looking for and instead surrounded Zhao Shu and walked towards her.
"Where are you going, young lady?"
Zhao Shu's heart skipped a beat, and she forced herself to stay calm, "Go home." She paused for a moment, then continued, "Go back to the Zhang Mansion, where the daughter of Old Madam Zhang is married to the Marquis Xuanping."
Zhao Shu was betting that they were afraid of Marquis Xuanping and the Zhang family!
As expected, the two men's faces changed and they looked Zhao Shu up and down. Her clothes were indeed not like those of an ordinary family's daughter.
The two men had ugly expressions on their faces. Just as one of them was about to wave his hand and tell Zhao Shu to get out, the other man took his hand and shook his head at him.
The man looked at him in confusion, and another man pulled him close to his ear and whispered, "If he really has a relationship with that person in the capital or the Zhang family, why doesn't he even have a maid by his side?"
"Besides, why would a delicate lady come to a place like this? Don't let her fool you and me!"
After hearing what his companion said, the man became angry and walked towards Zhao Shu with a grin: "Young lady, I am the nephew of Marquis Xuanping, I am here to pick you up!"
Zhao Shu's eyes darkened. When did her father have a nephew? !
But after seeing their malicious expressions, Zhao Shu immediately understood that they thought what she just said was a lie!
Finished!
"If you two brothers don't believe me, you can send me back to Zhang's house, and I will reward you handsomely then!"
The man paused, and then the two looked at each other. They were not fools. If they sent her back, they would definitely pass by the market. What if she took the opportunity to run away? !
The two continued to surround her. Zhao Shu kept shrinking back until she hit the cold wall. Then she came to her senses and looked at the two without blinking, trying to persuade them: "Really? There must be a large reward!"
The man didn't give Zhao Shu a chance to speak. He raised his hand and hit her neck, and then she fell forward.
The man put his arm around Zhao Shu's waist, his eyes swept from her face to her chest, he swallowed twice, and just as he was about to reach out to her chest, his hand was stopped by someone.
The man glared at his companion unhappily.
"Are you stupid? If we take this good stuff back and give it to Boss Qian, he will reward us well. When we have money, we will have no worries about finding any girl!" Upon hearing this, the man immediately gave up the idea of having a good time now. His eyes lingered on Zhao Shu's face for a while, then he reluctantly withdrew his gaze and carried Zhao Shu on his shoulder.
The two men ran deeper into the alley and disappeared in a few whooshes.
Xie Jin came to see Zhao Shu early in the morning, but was told by the maid beside her that she was not at home. He frowned, wondering where would she go so early in the morning?
After not seeing Zhao Shu in the morning, Xie Jin's mind was not very focused. After a quick lunch, he went to Zhao Shu's yard again.
Ah Ling stuttered, "The girl is not here." She carefully looked up at Xie Jin, then quickly retracted her head with trembling shoulders.
After getting the same answer as in the morning, Xie Jin's inner uneasiness gradually grew, and his eyes pressed on Ah Ling: "Ask again, where is your daughter?"
Ah Ling shrank her head and closed her eyes tightly: "The girl is not here!"
Girl, when will you come back? If you don’t come back, A Ling may not see the sun tomorrow!
"Where's the person!" Xie Jin kicked the door next to Ah Ling. The door made a "clang" sound when kicked by Xie Jin. The sound was very loud, and Ah Ling's heart was shaking like the door.
Ah Ling's legs went limp and she knelt down towards Xie Jin: "Miss, Miss, she's not here."
Xie Jin clenched his hands, took a deep breath, and said in a slow tone: "Something might have happened to Zhao Shu!"
Ah Ling was startled and immediately raised her head, staring at Xie Jin in amazement, as if she couldn't understand what he had just said.
Seeing Ah Ling's expression, Xie Jin's expression became even gentler, and he said in a calm tone, "Well, where is your daughter?"
Ah Ling looked a little flustered, not sure if it was because she heard that Zhao Shu was in trouble, or something else: "Girl, Miss..."
Xie Jin bent down and looked directly into her eyes: "Hmm?"
"The girl went to Muzi Lane!"
Xie Jin paused, then asked, "Where are you going?"
Ah Ling rested her head on the ground: "Go, go find a man called Li Yi."
Xie Jin stood up and thought about what happened in the past two days. Then, as if he remembered something, his eyes narrowed.
Although he felt a little annoyed, he was more worried about Zhao Shu's disappearance. He did not delay here any longer and turned around and left in big strides.
When Ah Ling saw Xie Jin leaving, she fell to the ground.
Xie Jin walked towards the Zhang Mansion stables, grabbed the reins from the servant, jumped onto the horse neatly, clamped his legs around the horse's belly, and shouted, "Go!"
The black horse galloped through the market, and pedestrians on the street tried to get out of its way because of its speed.
The sound of horse hooves gradually faded away. Several vegetable-selling ladies knelt on the ground, crying and wiping their tears at the vegetable leaves scattered on the ground. "Oh, my vegetables!"
Xie Jin rode his horse and searched every corner of Muzi Lane, but he didn't see Zhao Shu.
Xie Jin rode his horse to the entrance of the alley and bumped into Xie Er who was about to enter the alley.
Xie Jin got off the horse and came to Xie Er, looking at him with dark eyes: "Where is he?"
Xie Er broke out in a cold sweat, and knelt on the ground with a thump on his left knee. He clasped his hands together and lowered his head. “The other side’s defense is too tight. It will take some time for me to break through their defense and save Miss Mianru!”
The weather in March and April is the clearest and coolest, but Xie Er felt inexplicably hot and stuffy, with even dense beads of sweat on his forehead.
After a long while, Xie Jin asked without any emotion: "Did the kidnappers bring back a girl today?"
Xie Er felt relieved, and quickly recalled everything that happened during the surveillance today. He raised his head and said hurriedly, "He brought back a girl."
Before he could finish his words, a strong gust of wind brushed past his face, and then he felt a pain in his chest and fell backwards.
An angry shout rang in my ears: "Waste!"
Xie Er's chest hurt so much that he was sweating coldly and blood was oozing from the corners of his mouth. He knelt upright, enduring the pain.
Xie Jin lifted his robe and mounted his horse, looking down at the person kneeling on the ground: "Go and find the person living here for me! I'll give you one hour, if..."
"Bang!" Xie Er's forehead hit the ground hard. "I will find the person within an hour."
The sound of horse hooves rang in his ears. Only when the sound could no longer be heard did Xie Er stand up, holding his chest. He slipped a ceramic whistle from his sleeve, put it to his lips and blew it, then stuffed the whistle back into his sleeve and quickly ran to the other end of the alley.
Xie Jin came to the restaurant, sat in the seat where Zhao Shu had sat before, and looked out the window with a frown.
After looking for a while, he suddenly turned his head, grabbed the tea on the table, poured it down his throat, and then put the teacup down heavily with a "bang".
There was visible anxiety between Xie Jin's eyebrows. What kind of useless people did he raise? It was almost half an hour and he still hadn't found them!
