"Slowly"

With a shout, Xu Qingman fell into a warm embrace.

"Manman, stand back a bit, and I'll avenge you." Yu Jinchen pushed Xu Qingman, who was in his arms, to the corner of the wall, clearly furious.

Seeing the man rushing towards him with a bloodstained dagger gripped tightly, he didn't retreat but instead advanced, kicking the man hard and sending him flying backward.

Before he could get up, she kicked him hard again, sending him rolling several times. Then she leaped up, landing on the man's right leg and pressing down hard. With a crack, the man's right leg was ruined.

As Yu Jinchen lifted the man, who looked like a rag doll, and his clenched fist was about to strike the man's face, Xu Qingman quickly went up and hugged him.

"Brother Jinchen, please stop! If you keep hitting him, someone will die. It's not worth it for someone like that."

Under her soothing words, Yu Jinchen, the angry lion, finally calmed down.

"Don't be afraid, I'm not going to fight anymore. Let me see if you're hurt." After calming down, Yu Jinchen remembered to check if the little girl was injured.

"I'm fine, look..." Before she could finish speaking, she noticed that Yu Jinchen's clothes on his shoulder were stained with blood.

"Oh no, Brother Jinchen, are you hurt? Let me see!" Xu Qingman cried and anxiously tugged at his clothes.

"No, we have to get to the hospital right away. Yes, let's go to the hospital." Xu Qingman regained her senses and suddenly pulled him towards the hospital.

"It's alright, I'm fine, it's just a superficial injury. Let's take this guy to the police station first." Yu Jinchen pulled the anxious Xu Qingman back.

By this time, the sounds of fighting had attracted people nearby. Someone recognized Yu Jinchen and asked him what was going on. Yu Jinchen asked him to go to the nearby police station to report the incident.

At this moment, Xu Qingman remembered that Xiao Shitou had given her some hemostatic medicine yesterday. She pretended to take the medicine out of the small bag in the basket and tore open the clothes on Yu Jinchen's shoulder.

Thankfully, it really was just a superficial wound as he said, but he still bled quite a bit. She poured the medicine powder on it with heartache and took a handkerchief, slipped it under his armpit, and tied it up.

The two didn't have to wait long before the police arrived. Looking at the unconscious man on the ground, the police officers who came over gave Yu Jinchen a deep look.

A policeman took off the man's sunglasses from the ground, frowned, stared at the man's face for a while, and thought for a moment.

"Master, come quickly and take a look. Isn't this Lu Moumou, the murderer who has been wanted for nearly two years?"

"What?" The middle-aged policeman, who was addressed as "Master," rushed over, stared at the man carefully, and then compared his approximate height and weight.

The middle-aged policeman burst into laughter.

"Good, good, young man, you've done a great job." He said, patting Yu Jinchen on the shoulder with joy.

"No, stop!" Xu Qingman blocked the way with her hand before saying, "Officer, he has a shoulder injury. He was stabbed by that person."

"Oh, I'm sorry, young lady. I was so happy that I didn't notice. Are you seriously injured? Otherwise, I'll have someone take you to the hospital first," the middle-aged policeman said to Xu Qingman with an embarrassed smile, scratching his head.

Xu Qingman waved her hand, "No need, I've already applied the medicine."

"Alright, then I'll trouble you to come with me to give your statements. You should be back soon, depending on the situation." The middle-aged policeman asked the two to get into the car.

After explaining everything at the police station, Yu Jinchen took Xu Qingman home, only telling her not to worry and that he would handle the rest before leaving.

When she got home, Xu Qingman was afraid of scaring the two elderly people, so she didn't dare to tell them. She just hurriedly cooked dinner with her grandmother.

After Mr. Xu returned home and the group finished eating, Xiao Qinghe was taken back to her room by her grandparents for a nap. Xu Qingman then followed Mr. Xu, who was also going back to his room for a nap, into their room.

"Manman, what's wrong? Do you need to talk to your dad? Are you out of money? Here, take this." Xu Jingheng took out a wad of cash from his wallet and stuffed it into her hand.

"Dad, I don't need money, I really need to talk to you about something. Please sit down and listen to me." Xu Qingman waved her hand, gesturing for her father to sit down.

"What?! You're infuriating!" Xu Jingheng's face turned purple with rage after hearing his daughter's words. He clenched his fist and slammed it hard on the table in front of him.

I never imagined that my momentary carelessness would almost harm my daughter. If it weren't for Jinchen from next door who happened to be there today, I don't know what would have happened to my daughter. In short, I would not be able to bear the consequences.

He didn't expect that although Xu Gensheng had given his only son to someone else, he had already received a deposit of 50,000 yuan from the buyer.

When that family came to their door, the couple not only refused to return the money, but also gave their personal information to that family. As a result, that family, in order to find a wife for their son, actually paid someone to come to their door and kidnap them.

It seems he was too kind. He really shouldn't have let it go so easily back then, just for Manman's sake.

"Manman, are you scared? It's all Dad's fault for being so careless, you almost got into trouble." Xu Jingheng patted his daughter's head, feeling extremely distressed.

"Dad, I'm not afraid. Don't feel guilty. Nobody knew that couple was so shameless."

"Okay, then go back to your room and rest for a while. I'll take care of the rest. Here's the money. You're a big girl now, so buy some pretty clothes." Xu Jingheng stuffed the money on the table into his daughter's hand.

"Okay, thank you, Dad." Xu Qingman thanked her father sweetly.

I estimated the amount of money in my hand; it was at least two or three thousand yuan. At that time, the average person in a small city earned less than a thousand yuan a month. My dad was really generous.

After returning to her room, she counted the money in her hand and found that she had thirty-six hundred-yuan bills. Based on her memory, she also found her previous savings, which totaled more than seventeen thousand yuan.

Mr. Xu has always been very generous to his daughter, often giving her money. And the clothes and shoes she has worn over the years have all been prepared by her mother, so she has basically saved up all the money over the years.

However, thinking that I can't rely on my family forever and that I need to have my own business, I realized that I can't do much with this little money, so I have to find a way to make money.

Thinking about how she almost got injured that morning, Xu Qingman felt that the most important thing right now was to improve her own strength, at least to make herself able to protect herself.

Therefore, she entered the space to cultivate during the day for the first time.

Upon entering the small courtyard within the space, he sat cross-legged on the futon, cleared his mind, and closed his eyes to begin cultivating.

It wasn't until she heard her mother calling her to eat that Xu Qingman snapped out of her cultivation, quickly left the space, opened the door, and responded to her mother.

"Mom, I'm coming right away."

Sitting down at the dining table, not seeing her father, Xu Qingman looked at her mother and asked, "Mom, hasn't my dad come back yet?"

“Your dad called and said he has something to do tonight, so we don’t need to wait for him,” Xu Meifen replied to her daughter. She picked up the steamed egg on the table, held her son in her arms, and fed him.
