When the two of them arrived at Zhao Kuazi’s house, they just happened to bump into Lizheng, who had just come out.

“Zhao Zhan, you’re back?” Yang Lizheng grabbed Zhao Zhan’s wrist as if he had found his pillar of support. “There’s a tiger on the mountain. What should we do? If this tiger goes down the mountain and tramples the village to hurt our people, it’ll really be fatal.”

His brows furrowed in worry as he looked at Zhao Zhan. “Do you have any idea on how to defeat it?”

“Lizheng, tigers don’t hold grudges like wolves.”

Zhao Zhan wasn’t too sure either when he said that.

Logically speaking, tigers would never follow their enemy’s scent to settle the score. However, knowing that Zhao Kuazi had run into the tiger at the entrance of his cave…

“I won’t rest tonight. Lizheng, go to the village and gather a few strong men. Everyone will take turns guarding the village in the first half of the night and the second half of the night. Let everyone know to be on guard. That tiger is blind in one eye. It’s not like we can’t take it down if we have more people.”

“You’re right. I’ll go gather everyone.”

Lizheng, who was now more at ease, immediately left in a hurry.

“Jiaojiao, are you going in with me? Or are you waiting for me outside?” Zhao Zhan held onto Yue Jiaojiao’s hand and looked at her worriedly. “If we go in together, they might…”

“It’ll be fine. If they get angry at me, you’re still here. What do I have to be afraid of?” Yue Jiaojiao scratched the back of her neck and smiled. “Even if there’s something to be afraid of, it won’t be on us.”

“Alright, let’s go.”

As Zhao Zhan spoke, he half-blocked Yue Jiaojiao behind him and entered the courtyard.

“Zhao Zhan! What are you doing in our house? Our family doesn’t welcome you. Get out of here.” Zhao Kuazi’s eldest son, Zhao Wencai, had just come out of the living room and looked up at the person who had come. He opened his mouth and immediately berated them, “If it wasn’t for you, a jinx, how could my mother be so scared that she’s stuck in bed like a fool now?!”

“Wencai, you’re wrong.” Zhao Zhan shifted his foot and blocked Yue Jiaojiao’s path. He raised his head and looked at the other party coldly.

“Why did she want to go up the mountain in the first place? If she went up the mountain, why would she find my cave? If she didn’t go, she wouldn’t have run into the tiger.

“I’m here to ask her what happened. Otherwise, if the tiger rushes down the mountain and ran to your house, would you be able to stop it?”

“You!”

Zhao Wencai pointed at Zhao Zhan, unable to say a rebuttal for a long time.

Didn’t Zhao Zhan usually take blow after blow when this happens?

When did his personality change?

Seeing that the other party only knew how to stare at him helplessly, Zhao Zhan led Yue Jiaojiao around him and entered the inner room.

Kuazi was lying on the bed with her eyes wide open. It was unknown if she had really been scared out of her wits.

Yue Jiaojiao, who was following Zhao Zhan closely, noticed the guilty look that flashed across her face the moment they entered the room. She tugged at the hem of Zhao Zhan’s clothes to silence him before walking over to the bedside. “Can you recognize me?”

Zhao Kuazu did not say anything.

Yue Jiaojiao waved her hand in front of her eyes.

“Hello?”

Seeing that there was still no reaction from the other party, Yue Jiaojiao deliberately let out a surprised voice. “Zhao Zhan, look, isn’t that her box? Does she still owe us money?”

“You’re bullsh*tting that I’ve underpaid you! I’ve already compensated you with more than thirty silver, and you’re still not satisfied. You black-hearted trash!”

Zhao Zhan immediately held his lover in his arms and glared at the other party. “It seems like you’ve recovered. So, why did you come to my house? What did you do to the tiger?”
