My apprentice is not easy

Chapter 140 Fool
Lin Qingwan was stunned when she heard the salesman's accusation and questioning.

Her elder sister Shen just asked two questions casually. How did this salesman suddenly change the topic to the issue of not being able to afford compensation?

Did they... have a word about asking him to pay?

no?
Seeing the eyes of the people around, they became weird, pointing at her and Shen Ling.

Lin Qingwan stepped forward angrily.

Then, she was stopped by Shen Ling again.

Shen Ling ignored the shopkeeper who looked like "oppressed and humiliated by the lady".

Instead, he walked up to the man lying on the ground and squatted down.

"This lady!"

The shopkeeper called out hastily.

"My buddy just blocked your way. He really didn't mean it. Don't...do it to him!"

Shen Ling raised her eyes and looked at him expressionlessly.

Then chuckled.

"You're good at twisting the facts."

The shopkeeper's expression froze, and he stretched out his hand to pull the man lying on the ground.

Still screaming.

"He is a poor man, but he can't help it..."

Lin Qingwan stopped her feet, looked at the shopkeeper who was kicked down by herself, and turned her head in satisfaction.

"Sister Shen, continue with yours."

Shen Ling nodded in agreement.

Stretching out his hand, he wanted to turn the person on the ground over and take a look at his appearance.

Put your hands on the man's shoulders and press hard.

But I felt that what was being pushed was not a person, but a stone.

After pushing it a few times, the person lying on the stomach didn't move at all.

Then, the man shook his shoulders and shook off Shen Ling's hand.

Continue to lie still.

Like a well-cooked pancake.

Shen Ling: "..."

Seeing Shen Ling deflated, the shopkeeper who had already got up spoke again.

"Miss, I..."

Lin Qingwan raised her foot silently, as if about to make a move.

The shopkeeper stopped talking immediately, dodged a little, and looked at her warily.

The surroundings fell into a temporary silence.

Shen Ling stretched out her other hand, and using both hands together, turned the lying man over.

He is a handsome young man who looks to be around 20 years old. The contours of his face and the shape of his eyes are cold and cold.

If it is serious, it will appear very cold and majestic.

But well...

Shen Ling looked at this man with his lips pursed, looking like he was about to cry, and he was in a bad mood.

Ang, are you a fool?
That should be her mistake, it is impossible for her to know someone...

"Eh?"

Lin Qingwan's suspicious voice sounded from the side, which caught Shen Ling's attention.

She raised her eyes, looked at Lin Qingwan and asked.

"know?"

Lin Qingwan tilted her head and looked carefully at the aggrieved man lying flat on the ground.

A strange look appeared on his face.

"...I should have made a mistake."

But Shen Ling withdrew her gaze, looked at the man, and answered her very seriously.

"No, you're right."

It doesn't matter if it's someone she knows, or someone Lin Qingwan knows.

This person... can no longer be taken away by a salesman who is obviously guilty.

Well, telling a little lie shouldn't be a big deal.

Lin Qingwan: (=°Д°=)
No, no, no?

This messed-up man, who seemed to be confused and out of his mind, was really the cold and cold sword fairy she met on the flower boat that night?
This... the gap is too big, right?
In other words, what happened to this sword fairy to bring him down to such an extent?
How shocked Lin Qingwan was, and what kind of wonderful misunderstanding appeared in the communication between the two.

Shen Ling didn't know.

She softened her expression, stood up, and stretched out her hand to the lying down person.

"Can you stand up by yourself?"

The man's face was full of grievances, tears were streaming down his face, he turned over and lay face down on the ground again.

Shen Ling: "..."

"Miss, you admit your mistake!"

Seeing this, the peddler suddenly gained confidence and stepped forward with a mournful face.

"My buddy is the son of a relative of mine. He has been mentally ill since he was a child. He is a fool!"

"He's in his twenties, and he can't even get a wife! His father handed him over to me just to let him earn some money with his strength."

"No matter what, you can't be the last one, let the ancestors be ashamed!"

"Here, he...how could he be someone the two ladies know!"

Listening to the salesman's words, the people watching all around consciously knew the truth.

They all shouted.

"Why is this? Just because of your status, you won't even let a fool go."

"Isn't it just blocking the way? It's not a serious matter!"

"Hey, don't talk about it, it looks like it belongs to a big family, if you get annoyed, keep an eye on us..."

"Huh? A big family can bully others? What's the point?"

Lin Qingwan was annoyed.

With one hand on his waist, he wanted to speak up to refute.

But Shen Ling spoke to the man lying on the ground with a gentle tone.

"Did you know the peddler? But that's what he said?"

The man ignored him and remained on his stomach.

So Shen Ling stopped talking.

Raising his eyes, he looked at the shopkeeper with a calm gaze.

"In that case, let's assume that you... are telling the truth!"

After saying that, he stretched out his hand to hold Lin Qingwan's wrist, and led her back.

This step failed to retreat.

The man who was lying still on his stomach suddenly moved, leaned forward, and hugged Shen Ling's leg tightly.

The grievance on his face remained undiminished, and tears fell down.

The salesman was silent for a moment, and stepped forward to pull the man.

"Hey, fool, your parents are still waiting for you! What are you doing?"

As soon as his hand touched the man, the man's body trembled, and he moved from the front of Shen Ling to her side and rear.

Holding her legs tightly with both hands.

The shopkeeper was in a hurry, so he stretched out his hand to pull him.

"You come back to me!"

The corners of Shen Ling's lips were flattened, and she kicked over with her foot.

The salesman felt a great force falling on his body, and he flew out two or three meters uncontrollably, fell to the ground, and fell backwards, wiping the ground for a while.

Feeling the burning pain coming from his back, the shopkeeper's expression was distorted.

The surrounding onlookers were even more stunned watching this scene.

How can a girl who looks ordinary and weak... have so much strength?

But Shen Ling looked at the felled shopkeeper expressionlessly, with a cold tone.

"A simple truth."

"If he really knew you, had a relationship with you, and you treated him well, he wouldn't choose to hide behind me."

The onlookers were taken aback for a moment, and gradually came to their senses.

Indeed, this man did not want to get close to that salesman.

Even a little afraid of the shopkeeper.

Seeing that something was wrong, the salesman hurriedly got up, took a deep look at Shen Ling, turned around and ran away.

"Get out of the way!"

He yelled and went on a rampage, and the people in that direction dodged subconsciously.

By the time he reacted, the shopkeeper had already run away.

"Hey, you..."

Lin Qingwan took a step and wanted to catch up, but she didn't want to, but was stopped by Shen Ling again.

Shen Ling shook her head.

"There's no need to chase."

After the words fell, he looked at the person who was holding his leg.

...still feels familiar.

So she said.

"Do you want to come with me?"
