1534: That Hooligan Was Trying To Take Advantage Of Her Again

That Hooligan Was Trying To Take Advantage Of Her Again

The coachman from the other party fell to the ground in a daze. He laid on the ground and was not able to get up.2

His companions were enraged when they saw this and they picked up clubs and ran toward the coachman.

Beitang You's men were quite formidable and all of them pulled out their swords swiftly.

"Stop!" Beitang You shouted.

He was not particularly loud, but both parties heard him and they stopped in their tracks as they turned to look at him, stunned.

Yaoyao was crouching on the shaft, planning to watch this fight happening live in front of her. She had just gotten into it when both parties suddenly came to a stop and stood where they were with their heads down. She found the whole situation turning boring.

It was the first time since young that she had seen so many people fight.

Beitang You was such a party pooper!

He turned to instruct Zhang Yu, "Ask them if anyone in their horse-drawn carriage is hurt. If there are people hurt, give them ample compensation."

"Yes, Master." Zhang Yu left to carry out the order.

Beitang You did not want to waste any time on such a minor issue. It did not matter if the other party was at fault. The important thing was that no one on their side was hurt. If there were people hurt in the other party, it was only right to offer them some compensation.

Anything that could be resolved with money was not a major issue.

He got out of the carriage and reached his hand out to Yaoyao.

Yaoyao was taken aback. Before she realized it, he was already holding her little hand and helping her out of the carriage.

When they stood outside, Yaoyao quickly pulled her hand away from his and an awkward light blush appeared on her petite face.

Beitang You was being a busybody. She could have gotten off the carriage by herself.

Chen Jin had already gone to the inn to make arrangements. Once he was done, he informed Beitang You and Yaoyao to rest there.

"Are you hungry?" Beitang You looked at Yaoyao with a smile. He acted nonchalantly, as if nothing had happened in the carriage just now.

Yaoyao darted a look at him and mumbled quietly to herself, "He has such thick skin!"

"I'm not hungry," she replied out of politeness. He must be joking. She had eaten half a grilled chicken and a roasted goose earlier that day and was still quite full from it.

Beitang You did not ask anything else when he heard this and he led her toward the inn.

"Wait a minute, Young Master!"

A melodic voice of a woman could be heard behind them.

Beitang You did not stop, as if he did not hear anyone call out to him.

"Young Master?"

The woman called out to him again and her footsteps quickened. Yet, Beitang You pretended not to hear her.

Yaoyao could not help tugging at his sleeve. "Are you deaf? That lady is calling out to you."

"I don't know her," Beitang You said indignantly as he lowered his head to glance at her.

Yaoyao turned back to look and saw a woman get off from the carriage. Alright, it was true they did not know her.

She was about to let go of his sleeve when Beitang You suddenly smiled and took the opportunity to hold her hand.

Yaoyao was taken aback and when she realized what had happened, she quickly flung his hand away. That hooligan was trying to take advantage of her again!

However, Beitang You did not let go of her hand this time. Instead, he leaned in close to her ear and whispered, "Help me this one time."

Before Yaoyao understood what he meant, she saw the girl from the carriage walk quickly toward them. "Young Master…"

There was initially a smile on her face, but when she saw Yaoyao and Beitang You holding hands, her expression changed and she looked a little stiff.

"If there is anything you need, you may discuss it with my men," Beitang You said without a smile on his face. He was so business-like, it made her want to turn back.

"There's…There's nothing I need." The girl was scared into retreating and she quickly returned to her carriage. 

With that, Beitang You entered the inn while holding hands with Yaoyao.

Yaoyao realized too late that he was still holding her hand and she immediately flung it away.

"That lady was clearly interested in you. It isn't nice of you to treat her so coldly, is it?"

"What's wrong with that? She isn't anyone important," Beitang You said with indifference. He was feeling a little disappointed that he could not continue holding her hand.
