Chapter 168

Thinking of the old woman who died due to failure to rescue in time before, Wen Jie felt sore. He held her hand tightly, pulled her up, helped her to go forward, walked past the crowd, and stopped quietly at the entrance of the street, shaking her head. Without returning, he opened his mouth and said: "You can follow me to Pingxi Palace to get back the compensation you want."

The crowd heard this, but did not follow up immediately. As far as they were concerned, the stolen things had been recovered, and their resentment towards the old lady had been quietly resolved in Wen Jie's emotional words.

"Old lady, please wait a moment."

Talking softly, Wen Jie was surprised that he didn't hear any movement behind him. He hadn't forgotten how fierce the battle was just now.

Turning around, meeting their complicated eyes, I knew that they were not unreasonable people. Since they could take in the old lady for a short time, they would naturally not be bad people.

"thank you all!"

Wen Jie said gratefully, looked at them, and turned to leave, but a person suddenly came to him, pulled him aside, bowed his head and said a few words before leaving.

Watching the back of the person leaving, Wen Jie was stunned, horrified at what he just said, subconsciously glanced at the old lady, and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

But thinking that she was just an old lady, she couldn't help laughing at herself, turned her head and bowed to everyone, and turned back to the old lady.

The sun slowly rises to the sky, and the sunlight slantly shines on the ground of Yiren Street along the ridge of the roof, tearing through the morning breeze and spreading a warm breath.

All kinds of items are shining in the sun, golden, red, blue, green... It is dazzling to see.

Wen Jie helped the old lady to a silk and satin shop. All kinds of fabrics were of very good quality, so bright that they almost dazzled the old lady's eyes.

Seeing a golden yellow fabric shining against the sun, the old lady couldn't help speeding up her pace, walked to the fabric, raised her hand to caress the fabric, a slender hand grabbed her outstretched hand, Tight, almost crushing her wrist, and the owner of the hand looked down at her with contempt, "Do you have the money to buy it?"
A trace of bewilderment flashed in the old lady's eyes, and she slowly turned her head to look at Wenjie.
