Siheyuan: With the system in hand, the world is mine

Chapter 35: Encounter with Lou Xiaoe

Although he had the Eye of Truth, Wang Haoran had never tried to use it to hunt for antiques. After all, in this era, people could not even get enough food to eat, and the country had banned the opening of the antique trading market, so these things could only be found on the black market.

So, Wang Haoran took his sister along the way, stopping and starting, hoping that he could get lucky and meet a seller who didn't know the value of the goods and casually discarded the treasures, so that he could pick up a bargain.

However, the facts proved that this was purely wishful thinking. He walked until his legs were weak, but he still didn't see a shadow of him.

Just as he was about to go home in despair, he suddenly heard someone shouting at the top of his voice: "Catch the thief! Someone, come and catch the thief!"

Wang Haoran looked up suddenly when he heard the voice, and saw a figure passing by like a gust of wind, holding a small bag in his hand.

Without giving it any more time to think, he dropped his sister on the side of the road and ran after the thief.

Thanks to his enhanced physical fitness, it didn’t take long for Wang Haoran to successfully catch up with the thief and kick him to the ground with a flying kick.

"You little brat, stop meddling in other people's business!" The thief endured the pain and got up from the ground. He became instantly furious and without saying a word, he took out the knife in his arms and gestured towards Wang Haoran viciously.

"Comrade, be careful!" The people around saw the thief retreating with a knife in his hand, and did not forget to remind Wang Haoran.

"Who are you trying to scare with just a small broken knife? Put the thing down and go, otherwise you won't be able to leave later." Wang Haoran said with disdain.

The thief was immediately annoyed and angry when he heard this: "Since you want to die, I will grant your wish!"

Seeing the crowds gathering around him, the thief became more and more anxious. He waved the knife in his hand and rushed towards Wang Haoran.

"Ah..." The onlookers screamed in horror and closed their eyes, fearing that they would witness this bloody tragedy.

However, at this critical moment, Wang Haoran flashed and cleverly dodged the thief's sharp knife by moving sideways.

At the same time, he quickly reached out and firmly grasped the thief's wrist, twisting it hard. With a crisp "clang" sound, the knife in the thief's hand fell to the ground.

Then, Wang Haoran suddenly broke the thief's arms and pressed them tightly behind his back. He then kicked the thief's calf. The thief was caught off guard and his legs went limp, and he fell to his knees on the spot.

"Well done, young comrade! You did a great job!" Seeing Wang Haoran subdue the thief so easily, the onlookers couldn't help but cheer and applaud.

"Brother, you are so awesome." Wang Xinya ran over at some point and looked at Wang Haoran with admiration.

"Xiaoya, move away, it's dangerous here." Wang Haoran was also afraid that the thief would accidentally hurt his sister.

"Okay, brother." Wang Xinya walked aside obediently.

The thief had no power to fight back at this time. He could only struggle desperately, but he still couldn't break free from Wang Haoran's restraints. In desperation, he could only beg: "Brother, please forgive me! This is the first time I do this kind of thing..."

"I reminded you a long time ago to run away, but you didn't listen. It's too late to regret now!" Wang Haoran refused mercilessly.

At this moment, a loud voice was heard: "Make way, everyone please make way!"

Everyone looked over and saw several people in neat uniforms walking quickly. Wang Haoran looked closely and found that one of them was Director Liu, whom he knew well.

As they got closer, a law enforcement officer quickly stepped forward and handcuffed the thief, and Wang Haoran, who had been staring at the thief, stood up straight at this time.

"Oh, it's Brother Wang. Are you okay?" After seeing Wang Haoran's face clearly, Director Liu asked with concern.

"It's okay, Brother Liu, it's just a small matter, it's nothing to me. You know me well, with my skills, these are all a piece of cake!" Wang Haoran waved his hand nonchalantly, with a relaxed expression on his face.

"Oh... I almost forgot that you are a master who once defeated dozens of people by yourself!" Director Liu was stunned for a moment, then teased with a smile.

"Thank you, brother. Otherwise, I might not be able to get my things back today." At this moment, a sixteen-year-old girl in a light pink dress, with slightly curly hair falling on her shoulders like a waterfall and skin so white and delicate that it seemed like water could be squeezed out of it, walked lightly to Wang Haoran and thanked him sincerely.

Wang Haoran bent down, quickly picked up the items scattered on the ground, and handed them to the lovely girl in front of him with a smile: "You're welcome, please check if there is anything missing or damaged."

After Lou Xiaoe took her small bag, she carefully checked the items inside. After confirming that everything was correct, she looked up and her eyes happened to meet Wang Haoran's handsome face.

At this moment, she seemed to be cast a spell, and her whole body froze. Her originally slightly red face turned even redder. She said shyly: "There are still many things. Big brother, my name is Lou Xiaoe. To express my gratitude, I would like to treat you to a meal, is that okay?"

When Wang Haoran heard the three words "Lou Xiao'e", he was stunned on the spot - how could he not know this name? In the original book, Lou Xiao'e was the only innocent, kind and simple woman in the whole courtyard!

Because of this, she was framed and reported by Xu Damao, which nearly put her whole family in jail. As a last resort, they had to flee the capital overnight and fly to the strange place of Hong Kong.

Halfway through, the deaf old lady framed Sha Zhu and made him pregnant. After the reform and opening up, Lou Xiaoe came back with her son and helped Sha Zhu open a restaurant. Later, Qin Huairu even tricked Sha Zhu into sucking Lou Xiaoe's blood.

So much so that Lou Xiaoe couldn't stand it anymore and fled to Hong Kong again, never to return. Thinking of this, Wang Haoran couldn't help but feel a surge of pity in his heart.

It is said that a time traveler should not make trouble if he does not want to be a time traveler, but Wang Haoran does not have such an idea. The situation of the Lou family does not allow them to stay in the country, but they can cooperate with each other when the time comes.

By the way, preventing Lou Xiaoe from marrying Xu Damao can be considered as accumulating some virtue for himself and preventing Lou Xiaoe from being harmed.

"My name is Wang Haoran. You're welcome. I had been planning to treat Brother Liu to a banquet, and I just happened to meet him today!" Wang Haoran tactfully rejected Lou Xiaoe.

"Oh... okay then! I'll treat you again when I'm free." Lou Xiaoe couldn't hide his inner disappointment, but he quickly adjusted his mood and responded.

Then, Wang Haoran turned to Director Liu and invited him warmly: "Brother Liu, let's go. You should have some free time now! How about bringing us guys along for a meal?"

Director Liu hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Well, OK, I'll honor you with my hospitality, Brother Wang."

After that, Chief Liu ordered the suspect to be taken back to the police station, and he led everyone to the restaurant in a grand manner. Along the way, everyone talked and laughed, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
