Quick Wear: Female Supporting Role

Chapter 33 Mei Zi is Missing

Under the bright moonlight of the night, a fire started in a mountain village, making the surroundings as bright as day.

As the noise arose, the man sitting on the main seat became polite and courteous. His thoughts had long since drifted away until he saw his men escorting someone towards him.

"Where did this come from?"

One of the men stepped forward and explained, "Boss, today when we were patrolling the mountains, we found this young lady secretly meeting her lover and she ran to our place. The lover abandoned her, and we couldn't bear it, so we brought her back and made her your sister-in-law."

"Young lady, where are you from?" The boss became interested.

Mei Zi was brought here, but her hands were tied and her eyes were blindfolded by the bandits. She was a little uncomfortable seeing the firelight.

Before she could see clearly around her, she heard a lot of noise all around.

"She came to our village to have a secret meeting with her lover. She is really classy." The people sitting on the main seat were not very interested in her.

Mei Zi was locked up. She got up from the ground and seemed to touch something with her hand. She was so scared that she pulled her hand back. It was not until she saw clearly that it was a mouse that she calmed down.

She leaned alone, with tears in her eyes, and then hugged herself tightly.

The firelight outside illuminated the dark place, making it seem even more desolate.

After a long time, Mei Zi heard someone patting her on the shoulder. She looked up and saw a man acting stealthily with shaking hands.

"It's you"

"Shh, keep your voice down"

Ma Liu opened the door, pulled her up and walked out, "This way"

Who would have thought that there was someone else in the dark cell. As the two of them left, laughter was heard from the cell.

Just when the two thought they had escaped, they fell into a trap the next moment, and then flames broke out.

"Oh, you're quite loyal."

"Boss, how to deal with this?"

"What a pair of star-crossed lovers"

Mei Zi had never been slandered like this before, and she shouted angrily: "Bah, if you have the guts, give me a quick death, and stop accusing me of anything."

"Brother, I don't know her, please let me go!" Ma Liu kowtowed continuously.

"Why do you want to save her if you don't know her? There must be something fishy," the bandits nearby started to make a fuss.

He then explained his story with the girl, and that he gave all the silver he had cheated as a gift to the bandits.

The bandit leader looked at Mei Zi and asked, "Are you from Xianke?"

"Yes, she is the proprietress of Xiankelai," Ma Liu responded quickly.

"Torch, get closer to her." After looking at Mei Zi's face, "Your boss is Ling Ruoli from the Xiangfu."

Ma Liu immediately flattered him, "Brother, you are really amazing. This girl was originally the daughter of a hunter, but she was lucky enough to save Miss Ling. Miss Ling was generous and not only bought her a piece of real estate, but also gave her a teahouse and managed it for her many times."

“Quite interesting”

Afterwards, the bandit leader ordered his men to treat Miss Mei Zi well, but he had no intention of letting her go.

Yesterday, Ling Ruoli listened to Murong Lian's advice and asked someone to bring a guzheng to the room on the second floor. She plucked the sound casually and improvised a piece of girl's love. After all, this was the piece she was most familiar with.

"To express our apology today, the host will play a song for everyone to express our apology."

Then the pleasant sound floated, and the lingering sound attracted people on the street. For a while, the number of guests in the teahouse increased by three times the usual amount.

When the song ended, the whole audience burst into uproar.

However, Ling Ruoli had left long ago because Mei Zi was missing and she was unwilling to go to the yamen.

The most speechless thing was that the government directly sent those who caused trouble in her teahouse to jail. Such a mysterious operation really shocked her.

What’s even more infuriating is that because Mei Zi has been living in the mountains and is an illegal resident, the government will not handle this kind of disappearance case.

"You can pay the head tax for her, and then I can send someone to arrest her based on the facts of the case."

Ling Ruoli was so angry that he directly took the corrupt official away and said, "Arrest your sister!"
