Bai Yun raised the whip in his hand and lashed towards this side.

The people in the wonton shop ran away in fear.

Mu Bai took Su Ruanruan's hand and was about to escape out the door, but Bai Yun was not willing to let them go and never gave them a chance to get close to the door.

Mu Bai took Su Ruanruan to hide, and Bai Yun waved the whip in his hand.

Several tables were in a mess, with steaming wontons knocked over and scattered all over the floor.

Two more plates were rolled to the ground and broke into pieces.

The guy begged and pleaded, "Stop hitting me, stop hitting me."

But Bai Yun's eyes were always on the two clasped hands.

The raised whip was about to fall on Su Ruanruan's back.

Mu Bai saw it and without any hesitation, he quickly stood behind Su Ruanruan and protected her tightly, but the pain he imagined did not come.

I saw that the whip had been grabbed by someone, and the force was so great that Bai Yun was pulled to the ground.

"Ouch~ My jaw."

Huo Yan squinted at the wailing woman on the ground, then threw the whip back to the ground.

When Su Ruanruan saw Huo Yan again, the expression on her face froze instantly.

Why is he here?

She had a feeling that seeing him would not bring good news.

"Thank you." Su Ruanruan said.

She had no intention of staying. She just wanted to take advantage of Bai Yun's fall and quickly leave this troubled place.

She quickly grabbed Mu Bai's hand and prepared to run.

But the next moment, he was surrounded by an embrace as hard as a wall of flesh.

She saw Huo Yan looking down at her, and when their eyes met, she could clearly see the mockery in his eyes.

She tucked a strand of Su Ruanruan's hair behind her ear and smiled, "You are being naughty again, aren't you? How can you hold another man's hand when you have me?"

Su Ruanruan: "..."

What is going on?

Mu Bai looked at the hand on Su Ruanruan's waist and felt his heart sink to the bottom.

"Let go of Ruan Ruan."

Mu Bai stretched out his hand and tried to separate the two of them.

But Huo Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and stretched out his fist, which was about to hit Mu Bai's right arm.

Su Ruanruan panicked instantly and her brain stopped working.

She couldn't imagine how badly this punch would damage Mu Bai's arm.

She stretched out her hands, hugged his arms tightly, opened her red lips, and bit the back of his hand hard.

Huo Yan frowned and looked at Su Ruanruan, then touched his back teeth.

It hurts so fucking much!

Did she really think that she would use force against that weak little chicken?

“Nice bite!”

Bai Yun climbed up from the ground in a panic.

Looking at Huo Yan dressed as a constable, this guy had just come to the county government office not long ago, but he was unruly. Not only did he ignore her, he even never looked at her father.

He is tall and strong, but he is not actually ugly.

Just the scar on his face could scare children into crying, and she had seen it more than once.

Normally when she saw him, she would pretend not to see him.

But today, he bullied Brother Mu Bai, which was intolerable.

Bai Yun stiffened his neck and rebuked him harshly, "Don't you know how powerful your fist is? Brother Mu Bai has weak arms and legs. If you hit him with this punch, his hand will be broken. How can he write? How can he take part in the provincial examination? Just wait and see. I will tell my father when I get back."

Su Ruanruan gave her a thumbs up, she meant the same thing.

Bai Yun received her signal and his eyes lit up, "Really? You also think what I said makes sense!"

Su Ruanruan nodded meaningfully.

Huo Yan frowned again, and a fly could be caught between his eyebrows.

Mu Bai's face turned pale. He felt that he was so useless. What else could his hands do except hold a pen?

His classmate Fang Ru happened to be passing by to buy paper. Looking at the crowd watching the excitement, he had no idea what was going on.

But when I followed their gaze, I saw several familiar figures.

There was a trace of confusion in his eyes, and he didn't know what had happened.

But he still squeezed through the crowd and walked in.

"Take Mu Bai home quickly and let him have a good rest."

Su Ruanruan recognized that this person was the scholar who avoided him like a snake at the door of Mu Bai's house that day.

"Soft..."

Su Runrun quickly glanced at Huo Yan, knowing that she had offended this big Buddha again today.

She turned around and smiled at Mu Bai, "Don't worry about me, I'm fine. Go back soon!"

Mu Bai didn't move for a long time, looking at Su Ruanruan with a complicated expression, worried and heartbroken.

Bai Yun was very strong. He took advantage of Mu Bai's daze to lift him up, and disappeared in a flash.

Fang Ru followed closely behind in pursuit.

The shop assistant's face became increasingly ugly as he looked at the broken bowls and the stool that was kicked to the ground.

He had finally found this job, and today was only the tenth day since he came here, and something like this happened.

The shopkeeper happened to be out. If he waited for him to come back, he would deduct a lot of money from him and might even fire him.

Naturally, he didn't dare to mess with the man in the constable's uniform, so he could only ask Su Runrun, who was sitting dejectedly beside him, to pay compensation.

"Why me? It was that girl who was damaging things with the whip. Why didn't you stop her when she left?"

She had bumped into some things while running around just now, and her legs still hurt.

"Don't think I don't know. She is the daughter of Lord Bai. How dare I ask her to pay? It's you who provoked her. Miss Bai and Mr. Mu are gone, so you have to pay."

Su Ruanruan wanted to cry but had no tears. "I deserve to be the scapegoat. Just because one of them is a lady and the other is a scholar, you dare not offend them and can only take it out on me? You only pick on the weak ones?"

When the shop assistant saw Huo Yan leave calmly, he also dispersed the crowd of onlookers.

Afterwards, he went to the tea shop across the street and chatted and laughed with other officials. He didn't even look over here, let alone have any intention of supporting this woman.

His body became more and more upright.

"Anyway, if you don't pay the money today, you won't be able to leave this door. You can handle it yourself."

The shop assistant was blocking the door with a sloppy look on his face. He used to be a gangster, and even after changing his clothes, he couldn't hide his ruffian look.

Su Runrun was so angry that her teeth were itching. The group of officers who were supposed to maintain public order were chatting not far away on the opposite side. They didn't care about her life or death at all, let alone whether her freedom of life was restricted.

Yes, if you break something you have to pay for it, but she is also the victim, okay?

He originally thought that Huo Yan would cause trouble for him because he bit him, but he didn't expect that his way of revenge would be to watch the fire from the other side of the river.

In the distance, the teeth marks on the back of Huo Yan's hand were clearly visible.

Niu Mang clicked his tongue twice, "Tsk, you know what, this woman is really cruel. Others would hide away when they saw you, but she was the only one who dared to bite you. It's quite interesting, don't you think?"

Jin Yu looked at Huo Yan with a puzzled look on his face, "Brother, hasn't the gem been found? Why do you always target her?"

Jin Yu was a little uneasy. Ever since he knew that Miss Xinrou was engaged, his brother's behavior had been worrying.

Especially when she saw that woman, both her figure and her pair of autumn-like eyes were somewhat similar to her.

Wasn't he transferring his dissatisfaction onto her?

Thinking of this, Jin Yu looked at Su Ruanruan with sympathy several times.

"Brother, that girl is innocent!"

Huo Yan sneered. Innocent?

In prison, she deceived him with her menstrual blood, and just now in the restaurant, he heard her conversation with Bai Bai clearly.

She is such a liar and a complete fraud.

On the one hand, she was flirting with this handsome scholar, on the other hand, she behaved unruly in the village and had ambiguous relationships with other men.

It reminded him of Rou'er. They had grown up together as childhood sweethearts, but he had just gone out to fight in the war, and when he came back, she had already made a vow of love to someone else.

What about their past time?

Women, why are you all like this?
