Rebirth of the Prime Minister's Daughter: Not to be Trifled With

After paying, Liu Wentao hurried after Lu Linglong. However, Lu Linglong had already returned to her residence. Seeing that it was getting late, Liu Wentao decided to go find Lu Linglong the next day.

Liu Wentao was walking slowly home alone. Suddenly, he was bumped into by someone running very fast. The person looked at Liu Wentao and said apologetically, "Young master, I'm sorry!"

After hearing this, Liu Wentao glanced at the man, shook his head slightly, and continued walking forward. Suddenly, a group of people appeared out of nowhere and chased after the person who was running very fast.

"He's there, don't let him get away!" Just then, the person who was running very fast ran towards Liu Wentao and stuffed a black money bag into his hand before he could react.

At this moment, Liu Wentao was holding the money bag and looked bewildered. The group of people looked at the black money bag in Liu Wentao's hand, surrounded him, and punched and kicked him.

Liu Wentao was soon beaten badly by that group of people and could barely stand up.

He struggled to his feet, looked at the group of people who had beaten him, and demanded angrily, "Why did you beat me without even asking what happened? Do you have any sense of reason? Is there any justice in this world?"

"Justice? You stole our boss's money and you think you're in the right?" The group of men looked at Liu Wentao and said with a sneer.

"You dare to steal from our boss? We're lucky we didn't beat you to death. Are you tired of living?"

After hearing this, Liu Wentao looked at the group of people and shook his head slightly. "I didn't steal money from your boss. Someone forced it on me."

The group looked at Liu Wentao and sneered, "You're talking nonsense. Why didn't anyone force money on us? If you stole something, you should have the courage to admit it. That's what makes a man. You're not even a man."

After hearing this, Liu Wentao looked at the group of people and continued to explain, "I've already said that I didn't steal it, someone forced it on me, why won't you listen? I really can't reason with you."

After Liu Wentao finished speaking, he prepared to leave. The group of men then blocked his path again, saying, "You stole our boss's money, and you think you can just leave without explaining yourself? Do you really think you can get away with this?"

After they finished speaking, the group made a move to hit Liu Wentao again. Seeing this, the man who had run the fastest shouted angrily at the group, "Your grandma is here! You bunch of idiots, come and catch me!"

Upon hearing this, the group looked in the direction of the speaker and saw the person giving them a provocative smile. Enraged, the group immediately put Liu Wentao down and chased after the fast-running man.

The fast runner led the group around the town several times. He toyed with them like monkeys, leaving them exhausted and out of breath.

A short while later, the person who had run very fast returned and found Liu Wentao.

She looked at Liu Wentao and said apologetically, "Brother, I'm so sorry! I really didn't expect those people to beat you up so badly."

After hearing this, Liu Wentao looked at the person who was running very fast and earnestly advised, "You shouldn't steal anymore. Find a proper job instead."

After hearing this, the person who ran very fast looked at Liu Wentao, shook his head slightly, and said in a low voice, "Silly boy, you think you can lecture me?"

"You should mind your own business! I'm just unlucky today, otherwise I wouldn't have run into someone as stupid as you. You don't even know to run away when someone hits you."

After hearing this, Liu Wentao looked at the person who was running very fast and didn't know what to say for a moment. After a long while, he finally said, "I have nothing to hide, so there's nothing to run for."

After hearing this, the man who ran very fast looked at Liu Wentao and shook his head slightly. "Everyone says that scholars are pedantic, and it seems that they are right."

After hearing this, Liu Wentao glanced at the person who was running very fast and said nothing more.

Seeing this, the person who ran very fast looked at Liu Wentao and asked in a low voice, "We've become friends through a fight, haven't we? How about we grab a bite to eat together?"

After hearing this, Liu Wentao glanced at the person who was running very fast, shook his head slightly, and continued walking towards his residence.

The person who was running very fast looked at Liu Wentao's back and said loudly, "Hey, what's wrong with you? I've been starving for days, you should at least treat me to a meal!"

After hearing this, Liu Wentao stopped and looked at the person who was running very fast. "Alright then! I'll take you to a nearby restaurant."

After hearing this, the fast runner looked at Liu Wentao, nodded slightly, and said with a faint smile, "Young master, thank you in that case!"

Liu Wentao led the fast runner to the nearest restaurant. The fast runner ordered a large, lavish meal.

Seeing this, Liu Wentao looked at the person who was running very fast and asked in confusion, "You ordered so much, can you finish it all?"

"Look, there's you here!" the fast runner said nonchalantly. "Anyway, it's your treat. If we can't finish it, I can pack it up and eat it next time!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Wentao took out his money pouch to pay. But he was dumbfounded; where was his money pouch? Had he lost it sometime ago?

Liu Wentao glanced at the person who was running very fast, and shook his head slightly. "I'm sorry, I lost my money, so I can't treat you to dinner!"

After hearing this, the fast runner looked at Liu Wentao and said in a low voice, "Then let me treat you!" After saying that, the fast runner took out his money bag.

Liu Wentao was stunned when he saw it. Wasn't this money bag his? How did it end up in the hands of that fast-running person?

Suddenly, Liu Wentao remembered the person who ran so fast bumped into him. Could it be that the person who ran so fast had stolen his wallet at that moment?

Seeing this, the man who was running fast looked at Liu Wentao and said in a low voice, "Brother, be more careful next time! Luckily you ran into me, other people wouldn't have returned it to you."

After the fast runner finished speaking, he took out money from his purse, paid for the food, and returned the purse to Liu Wentao.

After having dinner, Liu Wentao and the fast runner chatted for a while.

During the conversation, Liu Wentao learned that the person who ran very fast had come here to find his brother and cousin, but had been robbed of his money and had no choice but to steal money to make a living.

Upon hearing about the plight of the fast runner, Liu Wentao felt a pang of sympathy. He immediately gave most of the money in his purse to the fast runner.

Liu Wentao also promised to find the brother and cousin of the person who ran very fast.

The man who ran very fast looked at Liu Wentao gratefully after hearing this and said in a low voice, "Young master, thank you in advance!"
