Liu Yaoyao walked down the street in a daze, the scene that just happened in the Jade Pavilion constantly echoing in her mind.

She was upset, as if the whole world had become dark and gloomy.

She didn't know where to go and ran into a ragged beggar.

The buns in the beggar's hand fell to the ground with a "pat". He widened his eyes and tried to pick them up in a panic.

"Oh, my buns!" An angry roar was heard, and the bun shop owner with a big belly came chasing after him aggressively with a rolling pin in his hand.

"You beggar, you dare to steal my buns, I will break your legs!" the bun shop owner shouted angrily.

Liu Yaoyao looked at the skinny beggar and hurriedly stepped forward to stop the owner of the bun shop, putting on an apologetic smile.

"Boss, don't be angry, don't be angry. I'll pay for the buns."

The shopkeeper glared at Liu Yaoyao and said unhappily, "You're paying for him? Do you know how much these buns are worth? They're made with the best flour and meat stuffing, and they cost five cents each!"

When Liu Yaoyao heard this, she felt a little pain in her heart.

She felt her pocket and found that she didn't have much money.

But when she thought of the poor beggar, she gritted her teeth, took out her purse, counted out a few copper coins and handed them to the owner of the bun shop.

"Boss, is this enough?" Liu Yaoyao asked cautiously.

The shopkeeper took the money, counted it, and his expression eased a little: "You are sensible."

He turned and left, still muttering: "Don't let me run into this beggar again next time, or I'll beat him up every time I see him!"

Liu Yaoyao looked at the back of the bun shop owner and shook her head helplessly.

She squatted down, helped the beggar pick up the buns on the ground, and handed them to him: "Here, eat it."

The beggar looked at Liu Yaoyao gratefully, took the bun and began to eat it voraciously.

Liu Yaoyao saw how happily he was eating and she also picked up a bun and stuffed it into her mouth.

This world is so difficult!

After the beggar finished eating the bun, he raised his head and said seriously: "Girl, you are a good person."

Liu Yaoyao handed him another bun, but the beggar said mysteriously.

"I'll tell you a secret. There's a place on this street where you can make a lot of money. Do you want to try it?"

When Liu Yaoyao heard this, she immediately became excited: "Oh? Where can I make a lot of money? Tell me quickly!"

Liu Yaoyao went over and planned to chat with the beggar, but the beggar chopped her down with a clean knife.

Liu Yaoyao felt a black screen before her eyes and then she lost consciousness.

The beggar looked at the man who was slowly falling down, with a scornful smile on his face.

She patted Liu Yaoyao's cheek gently and whispered.

"Liu Yaoyao, you can't recognize me now, but I'll recognize you even if you turned into ashes. Especially when you're wearing such shabby men's clothes."

The beggar smoothed his messy hair, revealing a familiar face.

If Liu Yaoyao saw her at this moment, she would definitely scream out in surprise.

This beggar was Zhang Lingling, who was rescued by Leng Ji in Dayanzi Mountain and later took refuge with Leng Ji.

She was standing beside Liu Yaoyao at this moment, with a complicated look in her eyes.

"Humph, Liu Yaoyao, do you think you can escape?"

She first carefully helped Liu Yaoyao up, and then took her to a remote corner.

This place is sparsely populated and is where she has been hiding recently.

Zhang Lingling looked around and after making sure that no one was noticing them, she began to take action.

She first undressed Liu Yaoyao's men's clothes, revealing her original clothes.

Then, she took out a packet of medicine powder from her arms and quietly sprinkled it on Liu Yaoyao's body.

"Hmph, when you wake up, you will find yourself in the Jade Pavilion."

Zhang Lingling smiled triumphantly, with a sly glint in her eyes.

The reason she did this was because she hated Liu Yaoyao.

When they were at Dayanzi Mountain, Liu Yaoyao had stolen her limelight and made her lose face in front of Leng Ji.

Now, because of Liu Jingshu, he was abandoned by Leng Ji and even hunted down.

This is all Liu Yaoyao's fault!

So she wanted to let this villain taste the most vicious revenge in the world.

Zhang Lingling carried Liu Yaoyao on her back and quietly left the place.

She carefully avoided the crowd for fear of being discovered.

After some twists and turns, she finally brought Liu Yaoyao to the back door of the Jade Pavilion.

She gently placed Liu Yaoyao at the door and knocked.

After a while, the door opened and a man with a fleshy face stuck his head out.

"Hey, Lingling, what good things have you brought me this time?" The man looked at Zhang Lingling with a lewd smile.

Zhang Lingling smiled and pointed at Liu Yaoyao lying on the ground: "Here, this is the new stuff I brought you. Look at this beauty, it is definitely worth a lot of money."

The man walked over to Liu Yaoyao, looked her over carefully, and a gleam of satisfaction flashed in his eyes: "Yes, she is indeed a beauty. Lingling, you have done a great job this time."

Zhang Lingling smiled proudly: "Of course, I am Zhang Lingling doing things, what else do you have to worry about?"

The man patted Zhang Lingling on the shoulder and said, "Okay, when I make money, I will definitely not treat you unfairly."

After that, he carried Liu Yaoyao into the Jade Pavilion. Zhang Lingling stood at the door, looking at his back, with a smug smile on her face.

"Liu Yaoyao, just enjoy your time in Yu Ren Pavilion." She whispered, then turned and left.

Ling Chenyu hurried back to the mansion, his face still showing fatigue, but his deep eyes were flashing with anxiety.

He grabbed the maid who hurried by and asked anxiously, "Where's the princess? Is she back?"

The maid was startled by Ling Chenyu's sudden action, and quickly calmed herself down and replied, "My lord, the princess hasn't come back yet."

Ling Chenyu frowned, feeling an inexplicable irritation in his heart.

He let go of the maid, called Leng Ying and asked him to find Qizhi Manyu.

After a while, Leng Ying hurried over with Qizhi Manwu.

Qizhi Manwu was full of confusion, and was even more bewildered after seeing Ling Chenyu.

"Your Highness?" Qizhi Manyu asked cautiously.

Ling Chenyu turned around and stared at them with a sharp gaze: "You didn't follow Yaoyao?"

"The princess said she wanted to sleep and didn't need us," Qizhi responded.

Ling Chenyu raised his sleeves and knocked down the three guards present. "Is this how you serve as guards?"

Leng Ying complained repeatedly, wondering who he had offended.

Qizhi Manwu didn't care about the injuries on her body and knelt down to beg Ling Chenyu to give them another chance.

Ling Chenyu didn't hear it and was completely immersed in his own thoughts: Yaoyao ran away, she didn't want him anymore.
