Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Shen Yao did not say anything. Instead, he walked closer to Ji Huai, who was curled up in the corner.

At that time, Ji Huai was covered in blood and was in a sorry state.

He put his head in his hands and curled up in the corner, looking terrified and uneasy.

However, from the corner of his eye, he kept glancing at the gray figure that was gradually approaching.

Ji Huai aimed for the right moment. Just as he was counting in his heart, Shen Yao suddenly stopped in his tracks—

‘Send him to the government office,” Shen Yao said indifferently. Even the emotions in his words did not fluctuate at all.

Qin Minghong was extremely surprised. “Send him to the government office? Are you sure?

“The country has its own laws. We’re not officials of the Imperial Court, so how can we judge the life and death of others?” Shen Yao said calmly, “Besides, didn’t he intend to attack you? Everyone knows the Qin family’s status in the prefecture capital.”

Qin Minghong was only the eldest son of the Qin family’s second branch in the prefecture capital. The eldest daughter of the first branch in the prefecture capital, that was the biological elder sister of the magistrate!

The Qin family’s power was complicated, which was why Qin Minghong could survive in Dingyuan County like a fish in water. Even County Magistrate Ma had to give him some face.

‘Okay.” Qin Minghong did not expect Shen Yao to let Ji Huai off so easily. He felt that this matter was a little strange.

Just as Shen Yao turned around and was about to leave, Ji Huai suddenly stood up and quickly took out a dagger from his pocket. Just as he was about to launch a sneak attack, Shen Yao avoided it!

At the same time, Shen Yao kicked away the dagger in his hand and forcefully kicked his chest! Ji Huai was knocked against the wall and bounced back!

‘You want to kill me.’

Shen Yao turned around and stared into Ji Huai’s angry eyes as he calmly stated this sentence.

‘You and JiAh Tao deserve to die!”

Ji Huai spat angrily and sneered.

“Who’s the mastermind?” Shen Yao suddenly picked up the dagger on the ground and stabbed it into Ji Huai’s shoulder bone. His expression was indifferent and his tone was cold.

Qin Minghong was extremely surprised. In his impression, although Shen Yao was a little cold, he should not be so cold. Especially the moment he stabbed the dagger into Ji Huai’s collarbone, he actually felt some fear from the bottom of his heart.

Such a cold aura made one shudder.

‘You’re not going to tell me?” Shen Yao was not surprised by Ji Huai’s stubbornness.

Just as Ji Huai was about to struggle, he suddenly pulled out the dagger and stabbed it again!

Ji Huai let out a painful howl. His entire face had already deformed because it was twitching too much.

‘Actually, I know even if you don’t say it.” Shen Yao cut off a piece of flesh on his shoulder expressionlessly, and his tone became colder. ‘Since you’re here for me, you shouldn’t have provoked Ah Tao.’

‘You…” Ji Huai’s eyes widened in horror!

He did not expect this weak scholar in front of him to have such a cruel side!

He could even tell his true motive at a glance!

Just as Ji Huai was distracted, another bone-piercing pain came from his cheek!

‘Since you’ve already become the Sun family’s dog, I naturally have to give you a congratulatory gift.” Shen Yao, who was holding a dagger, carved the word ‘dog’ on his face expressionlessly.

Ji Huai finally fainted from the pain.

Shen Yao silently took out a handkerchief from his pocket and slowly wiped the hilt of the dagger. Then, he wiped the blood on his hand.

Qin Minghong, who had witnessed the entire process, came back to his senses.

‘Young Master Qin, please send him to the prefecture city safely.”

‘You…”

‘Thank you.” Shen Yao did not explain much. However, when he walked past Qin Minghong, he stopped and said these two words sincerely.

Qin Minghong looked at his firm back and raised his eyebrows silently.

Shen Yao’s way of dealing with problems was very special!

The next day.

Ji Zhao, who had slept soundly, felt refreshed.

However, when she tried to stretch, tragedy struck—

She accidentally pulled on the wound on her shoulder. Just as she was gritting her teeth in pain—

Shen Yao started walking silently.

The moment their eyes met, Ji Zhao could only laugh foolishly.

Shen Yao’s gaze landed on the wound on her shoulder, and his heart suddenly ached.

‘Sit tight.’

‘Okay!” Ji Zhao sat obediently by the bed and silently looked at Shen Yao’s unsmiling and cold expression. She nervously twisted the fingers of her two hands. ‘Shen Yao, are you still angry?

Shen Yao pursed his lips and did not say anything. He picked up the ointment from the high table beside him and gently applied it on Ji Zhao’s shoulder—

Suddenly, she felt a cold touch on her shoulder. It was a little comfortable and itchy.

Ji Zhao could not help but shrink her shoulders and smile at Shen Yao in embarrassment. “Why don’t I do it myself?”

Shen Yao sighed softly and handed the ointment in his hand to her.

Then, he turned around and left.

Ji Zhao looked at his back and pursed her lips in grievance. She felt even more disappointed.

She was injured, but Shen Yao seemed to be still angry.

This feeling was not good.

Half an hour later, Shen Yao, who had returned, arrived in front of her.

‘And this is?”

‘Red bean porridge,” Shen Yao said in a low voice. “I’ve tried it. It’s not hot.’

‘You cooked it yourself?” Ji Zhao stared at the bowl of red bean porridge and immediately beamed.

‘Yeah.’

’11t smells so good!” Ji Zhao eagerly took the bowl and spoon and tasted it seriously. “It’s so fragrant and soft. It’s so delicious! Let me tell you, the vegetable porridge that Brother Qin cooked last night was half-raw…” Oh no!

Ji Zhao suddenly shut her mouth! She secretly glanced at Shen Yao’s expression.

As expected, the smile on Shen Yao’s face disappeared.

‘Ah Tao.” Shen Yao suddenly stared into her eyes and said seriously, “Don’t get hurt again.’

His heart really ached.

. Alright.” Ji Zhao’s eyes instantly turned red, and she choked as she nodded.

‘Ji Huai was sent to the prefectural city by Qin Minghong,” Shen Yao suddenly said. ‘The person behind him is the Sun family.”

‘You already know?” Ji Zhao raised her eyebrows in surprise. “Actually, I heard that the reason Ji Huai could be released was because of County Magistrate Sun of Thunder Mountain County. When I heard this news, I also felt that something was amiss, so I wanted to take a shortcut to ask Brother Qin for help. However, I didn’t expect Ji Huai to ambush me in the alley in advance…”

‘Shen Yao, I’m sorry.’

Ji Zhao really knew that she was in the wrong. She had clearly promised Shen Yao that she would not act rashly. However, in a moment of desperation, she had thought too highly of herself, which was why she was injured.

‘Shen Yao, don’t be angry with me anymore, okay?” Ji Zhao silently tugged at his sleeve and shook it gently. The expression on her face was aggrieved and pitiful..
