Chapter 384
The first prize of the stall was placed on the stone steps, so Shi Yan and Jiang che were standing on which stone steps. Even though many people had gathered in front of the stall because of their competition, it did not block their view.
As soon as Shi Yan looked up, she saw a girl being held down by two men. The stall in front of her was kicked to the side.
there seemed to be a lot of ink among the things that fell to the ground.
besides ink, there seemed to be a drawing board.
he was probably setting up a stall to paint portraits of people.
They were a little far away, and the girl’s hair was a little messy because of the struggle just now, covering half of her face, so they couldn’t see her face clearly.
However, from her dressing, she looked very artistic.
Not far away from them, a Man in Black with a cold expression stood there with his hands in his pockets. Two people followed behind him.
They all had sharp gazes and a murderous aura.
he was obviously a martial arts expert.
the man in black with a cold face was xie heng.
it wasn’t strange for xie heng to appear in the city of qing. after all, he had a feud with yuan shi, one of the seven major forces in the city of qing. he should be looking for yuan shi to settle the score.
It wasn’t strange for Xie Heng to appear in the night market of Qingcheng so brazenly. After all, no one stipulated that the head of the Xie family couldn’t visit the night market.
However, it was strange that any random girl who set up a stall knew Xie Heng and even called him by his name.
in fact, xie heng had just arrived in qingcheng not long ago. he didn’t come to the night market to shop. he heard that this was the territory of the former forces and wanted to take a look.
When he arrived, he found that this place had been taken over by Tian Wang.
After investigating for a while, he naturally had a deeper understanding of the various forces in Qingcheng. He knew that Tianwang was backed by the fifth master of the Jiang family. Xie Heng did not intend to have too much interaction with Tianwang, so he planned to leave. He did not expect that someone here would know him.
not only did she know him, but she also shouted his name on the street.
He turned around and saw that it was indeed someone he knew.
When the girl saw that he had heard her cry for help, she said excitedly, ” “Xie Heng, save me!”
Xie Heng frowned slightly, but his face was cold and his eyes were sharp, so the subtle change in expression was not easy to detect.
The girl didn’t seem to notice.
second young miss Jiang, we’ve only met a few times, so we’re not familiar with each other. It’s a little inappropriate for you to call me by my name.
She was the second daughter of the Jiang family, Jiang Yu’s younger sister, Jiang Shasha.
He was a painter at the age of 23.
Just like Jiang Yu, she didn’t get involved in the Jiang family’s business. Not only that, but she also rarely returned to the Jiang family. If she wasn’t studying in school, she would be studying abroad. traveling around with her drawing board and setting up a stall to earn money when she ran out of funds was what she did the most.
She was Jiang Yu’s biological sister and had the Jiang family’s genes, so she was naturally good-looking.
At first glance, she had an artistic aura and was a delicate and pretty girl.
Xie Heng was so straightforward that he didn’t give her any face at all. Jiang Shasha’s face turned pale. s-sorry, Xie family’s Wanwan, young master Xie. I was too scared and suddenly saw an acquaintance, so I spoke out of turn.
“Young master Xie, please do me a favor. I don’t want to leave with these people. If young master Xie is in a difficult position, you don’t have to help me personally. You can just call my father or third brother to inform them of my situation.”
the people who were holding jiang shasha hostage were not completely brainless. listening to the conversation between the two, he knew that the little girl they had taken a fancy to and were prepared to bring to the new master of this street should be a rich family’s daughter.
however, he was not sure to what extent she was a daughter of a rich family.
they were not cowards who made a living on the edge of a knife, but they were also not brainless people who would offend people at will.
looking at the person she addressed as ‘young master xie’, she could tell that he wasn’t a simple person.
“although i don’t know what the rules of the city of qing they are talking about are, i’m not an ignorant good girl. if i follow these people now, i won’t have a good ending!”
” young master xie, please help me on the account that we’re both from the capital and we know each other. ”
the person who gave the order to take her away exchanged a look with the person beside him.
from the capital?
The capital was a place where there was no lack of aristocratic families. Which family did these two people come from?
it was clear that at their level, they hadn’t come into contact with the top aristocratic families like the jiang family and the xie family. in addition, they lived in qingcheng and didn’t know much about the situation in the capital. they hadn’t even heard of the jiang family and the xie family.
with caution and probing, the leader looked at xie heng,”Is this gentleman trying to meddle in other people’s business? This beauty has broken the rules, so she has to be responsible for it. I advise you not to meddle in other people’s business.”
“young master xie, wanwan.”
Jiang Shasha shook her head with tears in her eyes, but she didn’t let them fall. She pretended to be strong.
unfortunately, xie heng was not a sympathetic person.
Seeing that he was unmoved, Jiang Shasha gritted her teeth and said, ” “ten million!”
” if young master xie saves me, i’ll get my dad to give you ten million! ”
“I know that ten million Yuan means nothing to young master Xie, but saving me was as easy as lifting a finger for young master Xie. A Simple Favor in exchange for ten million, wasn’t it a good deal? Moreover, the Jiang family still owes young master Xie a favor for saving me. No matter how you look at it, young master Xie won’t be at a disadvantage!”
xie heng remained unmoved.
but he didn’t leave. he just stood there without a change in expression, no one knew what he was thinking.
This included Shi Yan, who was not far away.
as if he could tell that xie heng didn’t want to meddle in other people’s business, the leader glanced at jiang shasha, who was still pretending to be strong and calm despite her tears, and waved his hand. ” “take him away!”
Jiang Shasha was shocked. young master Xie doesn’t care about the Jiang family’s favor. What about my fifth uncle’s? ” she yelled.
xie heng raised his eyes and looked at her.
Seeing that he had finally reacted, Jiang Shasha hurriedly said, ” “Although my relationship with fifth uncle is ordinary, I’m his niece in name. if young master xie saves me this time, i believe that fifth uncle will be willing to help me return this favor.”
“is that so?” Xie Heng said with an unclear meaning.
“Yes! What kind of person is my fifth uncle? he definitely won’t owe you a favor and not return it!”
when shi yan heard this, she snorted.”she sure knows how to use your name.”
This was the first time Jiang che had seen her express her emotions so clearly, and she was full of unhappiness.
At the same time, her heart subconsciously softened.
she had always been calm and composed, and it was not easy to arouse her emotions. however, she was so unhappy over such a small matter because it involved him.
“it’s not like i’ll do whatever she says. there’s no need to be angry.”
“i just can’t bear to see them using your name to do things so righteously!”
Looking at her angry little face, Jiang che smiled helplessly. He had to lower his head and kiss her face. His actions were gentle and he was comforting her.
” alright, don’t get angry over insignificant people. you’re unhappy when you’re angry, and your heart aches for me. it’s not worth it, right? ”
at this moment, xie heng suddenly looked in their direction and said,”second miss jiang, why do you have to seek help from someone far away? it’s not easy to get a favor from fifth lord jiang. i don’t dare to let him owe me a favor.”
perhaps jiang shasha’s shout had startled them, or xie heng’s sudden words had caught them off guard, but jiang shasha suddenly broke free from the two men.
“Y-young master Xie, what do you mean?”
following xie heng’s line of sight, there were many people there.
“what do you mean by ‘why give up what’s near and seek what’s far’? could it be that other than young master xie, there’s someone else i can ask for help from?”
her gaze passed through the crowd and landed on shi yan, then shifted to jiang che. jiang shasha said, ” “why does that person over there look so familiar? don’t tell me it’s yingluo?”
he was so shocked that he stopped talking.
“I’m also very surprised to meet fifth Lord Jiang here.”
It was unknown whether Xie Heng was speaking to Jiang Shasha or Jiang che.
