Chapter 157 Hero saves beauty
Chapter 157 Hero saves beauty
Lin Yu was arrogant and agile, and subdued the纨绔公子 in just a few moves.
The servants behind him released the two beautiful women they had been holding and picked up broadswords to rescue their young master. Lin Yu, unarmed, faced the servants' attack without fear.
He dodged a vicious slash with a quick movement, and then kicked the servant in the chest, knocking him to the ground.
Seeing this, the other servants roared and rushed forward, but Lin Yu was faster. He punched and kicked as if he were in an empty field.
Soon, the servants all collapsed to the ground, groaning in pain. Seeing the situation was dire, the纨绔公子 (playboy) tried to escape, but Lin Yu grabbed him.
"You wicked young master, you've been doing all sorts of evil deeds all this time, and today is your retribution!" Lin Yu roared angrily.
The spoiled young master turned pale with fright and begged for mercy repeatedly. Lin Yu looked at the two women and asked, "Are you alright?"
The women were moved to tears and thanked him repeatedly. Lin Yu smiled slightly and waved his hand, signaling them to stand up.
Shi Wanxia got off the carriage and helped the old man up from the ground.
The playboy was captivated by Shi Wanxia's beauty, his eyes fixed on her. He smiled, thinking himself handsome, and said, "Young lady, you are truly beautiful."
Shi Wanxia frowned, a hint of disgust flashing in her eyes. "Thank you for the compliment, young master, but please have some self-respect."
Having said that, she turned to leave. But the纨绔公子 (playboy) wouldn't let her go, stepping forward to block her path. "Young lady, don't be in such a hurry to leave. How about we go for a drink together?"
Shi Wanxia was furious and about to lash out when she noticed the old man beside her looking troubled, as if he had something difficult to say.
She suppressed her anger and said to the playboy, "Young master, the old man and I have important matters to attend to and cannot stay any longer. Please do us a favor."
The纨绔公子 (playboy) was unimpressed. "What important matter could be more important than me?" he said, reaching out to pull Shi Wanxia. Shi Wanxia dodged to the side, a cold glint in her eyes.
"Young master, if you continue to pester me, don't blame me for being impolite." The playboy was also angered by her ungrateful attitude.
"Hmph, you're just a young lady. I'd like to see what you can do to me."
Just as the two were locked in a stalemate, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly rang out.
A man in white riding a horse galloped over and stopped in front of Shi Wanxia.
He glanced at the spoiled young master, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes, "How dare you harass a respectable woman in broad daylight! You have quite the nerve!"
Seeing his luxurious clothes and extraordinary demeanor, the spoiled young master felt somewhat intimidated, but still stubbornly asked, "Who are you? How dare you meddle in my business?"
The man in white smiled slightly, "Who I am is not important. What is important is that you have messed with the wrong person today."
As he spoke, he drew his sword from his waist and pointed it at the纨绔公子 (a spoiled, dissolute young master). Upon seeing this, the纨绔公子 turned pale with fright and hurriedly begged for mercy, "Young master, spare my life! Young master, spare my life! I will never dare to do it again!"
The man in white sheathed his sword and asked Shi Wanxia, "Miss, are you alright?" Shi Wanxia looked at him gratefully and replied, "Thank you for your help, sir. I'm fine."
The man in white nodded. "It's good that you're alright. This place is not safe to stay any longer, young lady. You should leave as soon as possible."
Shi Wanxia thanked him again, then had Lin Yu put the two girls and the old man into the carriage and leave.
After delivering the goods, Shi Wanxia and Lin Yu were on their way back to the paper mill when they saw a spoiled young master harassing two young ladies and an old man.
Shi Wanxia was furious and was about to step forward to teach the young master a lesson, but Lin Yu stopped her.
"Don't act rashly. This young master looks powerful and influential. If we act rashly, it may cause us trouble," Lin Yu said in a low voice.
Shi Wanxia frowned, feeling unwilling but also understanding that Lin Yu's words made sense.
She glared fiercely at the spoiled young master and said through gritted teeth, "If you hadn't stopped him, that spoiled young master wouldn't have been able to leave so easily today."
Lin Yu sighed helplessly and said, "I'm doing this for everyone's sake. In this martial world, it's better to avoid trouble."
Shi Wanxia stopped talking and turned to look at the two young women and the old man. She asked softly, "Young women, old man, where do you live? We'll take you home first."
Upon hearing this, tears welled up in the eyes of the two young women. They knelt down with a thud and bowed to Shi Wanxia in gratitude.
"Thank you so much for saving our lives. My sister and I were hiding at home today, but we never expected that young master would be so audacious as to find our home and kidnap us."
Father couldn't bear to see my sister and me being harmed by him, so he chased after us. But... " At this point, the girls broke down in tears.
Shi Wanxia quickly helped them up and gently comforted them, "You're safe now, don't be afraid."
However, the two girls shook their heads in a panic and told Shi Wanxia, "Benefactor, that young master has taken a fancy to your beauty and is forcibly taking you as a concubine. Many servants have been assigned to guard your house, and we can't go back."
Upon hearing this, Shi Wanxia's anger flared up again. She clenched her fists and said, "How can there be such a tyrant in this world? It's truly despicable."
Lin Yu frowned and said, "What should we do? We can't let them be homeless."
After thinking for a moment, Shi Wanxia said, "You guys come back with me first. We'll take you home after we figure out how to solve this problem."
The two young women were moved to tears and nodded repeatedly. The old man also thanked Shi Wanxia and Lin Yu.
So, Shi Wanxia and Lin Yu took the two girls and the old man home.
Shuyun, Shuying, Qinxin, Qinglan and the others were very curious when they saw that they had brought back strangers.
Shi Wanxia told everyone what had happened, and after hearing it, everyone was furious at the behavior of that纨绔公子 (a spoiled young master).
“This young master has gone too far. We must find a way to help these two young ladies,” Shuying said.
Qin Xin nodded in agreement: "Yes, we can't let this bully get away with it."
Qinglan said worriedly, "But how are we going to deal with that young master? He has power and influence, and we are probably no match for him."
After a moment of contemplation, Shi Wanxia said, "We can't confront them head-on; we need to come up with a plan."
Everyone fell into deep thought and began to discuss countermeasures. The two girls stood by, watching them expectantly, hoping they could come up with a good plan to get them home as soon as possible.
No one had any good ideas for the time being, so Shi Wanxia asked Shuyun and the others to take them to stay first. With Lin Yu there, she figured he wouldn't dare to cause trouble.
The father and his two daughters immediately knelt down and kowtowed to express their gratitude, and the others hurriedly helped them up.
"Don't worry, you'll stay with us for a few days. Don't worry, it won't be free. Here's the deal: you help me with the work, and we'll provide food and lodging. It's too dangerous for you to go back now."
