People write diaries in Zongwu, and the heroes collapse

Chapter 556: The Woman in Distress

"This bitch, why did she steal my man?"

Ji Yaohua said with gritted teeth.

"Well, maybe it's not her."

Lu Chen said.

"Humph!"

Ji Yaohua snorted coldly.

Lu Chen smiled and said softly, "I won't hide anything from you in the future, and you don't have to be angry with her."

As he spoke, Lu Chen took an exquisite jade hairpin from the stall and gently inserted it into Ji Yaohua's bun: "Look how well this jade hairpin suits you."

Ji Yaohua was stunned by Lu Chen's sudden action, and immediately all her anger disappeared, and her heart felt warm.

She touched the jade hairpin in her hair and glared at Lu Chen, but a hint of smile flashed across her eyes, and she still muttered, "Don't think you can buy me off with a jade hairpin."

Seeing this, Lu Chen knew that Ji Yaohua's anger had mostly subsided, so he continued, "Well, I heard from Yang Yunshan that there is a restaurant in this city with good food, I'll treat you."

When Ji Yaohua heard this, a gleam flashed in her eyes, and she said proudly: "Humph, I just happened to be hungry."

So, Ji Yaohua and Lu Chen walked into the restaurant in the city that was praised by Yang Yunshan. The interior decoration of the restaurant was simple and elegant.

However, at the moment, the restaurant's business seemed a little quiet, with only a few tables of customers dining.

Of course, this is also a normal phenomenon.

Many people have not returned to Xiyun City yet, and most of those who remain in the city are those who could not escape at the beginning and do not have that much money. Therefore, not only his restaurant, but all other shops in the city are doing badly.

The two of them chose a seat by the window and sat down. Soon a waiter came over to serve them and they ordered a few of the restaurant's signature dishes.

Since business was slow, the food and drinks were served quickly and the two of them happily began to eat.

The two ate and talked, and Ji Yaohua was no longer angry at this time, but asked: "The official now wants to kill you, what are you going to do?"

Lu Chen said calmly: "He is an official, who dares to do anything to him."

Ji Yaohua rolled her eyes and said, "I know you. You won't give in so easily, especially now that you have broken through to the Heavenly Man Realm."

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry, I don't intend to go against the court."

Ji Yaohua paused for a moment. She felt that something was wrong with Lu Chen's words, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.

Ji Yaohua continued, "How about you stay out of the spotlight for a while, and I'll ask Master to persuade the government."

Lu Chen's eyes flickered and he said, "It's better not to bother the God Catcher."

At this moment, the door of the restaurant was suddenly pushed open, and a young woman rushed in in a panic, stumbling, and yelled, "Help! Help!"

Seeing this, the waiter came over and asked, "Girl, what's wrong with you?"

The young woman grabbed the waiter's clothes and kept shouting, "Save me, save me!"

The waiter was a little confused and asked, "Miss, what happened?"

The young woman was about to explain when she heard a noise behind her and was so scared that she hid behind the waiter.

I saw seven or eight ferocious-looking men walked in. These people had vicious looks, and were waving swords, sticks and clubs in their hands. They were aggressive and it was obvious that they were not good people.

When the woman saw this group of people breaking into the restaurant, she turned pale with fear in her eyes and quickly backed away.

"You...who are you?"

The waiter had never seen such a scene before, and he was so scared that he started stammering.

"Go away!"

The bald man with a scar in the front pushed the waiter away and walked towards the young woman.

"Go ahead, you little bitch! I want to see how far you can run. You made me chase you for so long."

The bald man looked at the young woman and sneered.

"Help me, please help me..."

The young woman asked for help from the diners in the restaurant, but their faces changed slightly, and some who wanted to take action were stopped by their companions.

The young woman was now in despair and trembling.

The bald man had a face full of flesh. He glanced at everyone, took out the receipt and showed it to everyone, and shouted loudly: "We bought this girl. It's written in black and white on paper with red handprints. Everything is complete. If anyone dares to save her, we brothers will not agree."

Hearing this, the diners in the restaurant all looked at him with sympathy, but no one dared to step forward to stop him.

The young woman quickly argued, "No, they lied to me. They said they would introduce me to a job. Wow, I didn't expect that they would send me to Cuilanyuan."

When everyone heard this, they knew that these ferocious-looking men were obviously Cuilanyuan's thugs.

Cuilanyuan is the largest brothel in Xiyun City. Cuilanyuan has been closed for some time, and many girls took the opportunity to escape. They have all heard about it. Now the proprietress of Cuilanyuan is extremely worried and is looking for the girls everywhere.

Girls in places like this are either deceived or sold by their parents.

Obviously, the girl in front of him was deceived.

In Xiyun City, there are many gangsters who cooperate with Cuilanyuan and help Cuilanyuan find girls. The most common trick they use is to introduce jobs.

I don’t know how many good girls were dragged into this situation.

The bald scarred man didn't care when he saw that the young woman had revealed their trick. He sneered and said, "You stupid girl, I want to see who dares to save you."

As he spoke, he moved towards the young woman, intending to capture her.

Others followed suit, and when the other diners saw this, they immediately put down their chopsticks and either hid aside or ran away without even paying the bill.

The restaurant owner stamped his feet in anxiety, but there was nothing he could do. He could only watch the diners run away: "Oh, what sin have I committed? I just opened the restaurant and encountered such a thing."

"Brother, save me!"

The young woman dodged around in the restaurant, and when she saw a customer, she quickly went up to grab the customer's arm, but the customer quickly shook her off: "Girl, don't hurt me."

After saying that, he ran to the other side.

Seeing that no one came to help, her eyes were filled with despair.

"You run, keep running, I don't want to see where you can run to. Why don't you ask around? Everyone in Xiyun City knows the name of Tiger Lord. Let's see who dares to save you."

The bald scarred man looked at the young woman's fair and tender appearance, and suddenly became lustful. He sneered and said, "It's a pity to sell you like this. You look pretty, so sleep with me for a few days, and then I'll send you to Cuilan Courtyard."

"I...I don't want it."

The young woman shook her head quickly.

"You don't want to? That's not up to you."

The bald man with a scar grabbed the young woman's delicate arm and spoke ferociously.
