The Eighteenth Chapter: Its Fine As Long As You Wake Up (Seeking Support!)

  ♂?,,

  Bai Yutang smiled slightly: "If caught by the Kaifeng Prefecture, Bao Gong would need evidence to execute someone and go through due process. But it's different with the Tai Shi Fu, you could die without even knowing how."

  Chen Yuan's heart was racing, Bai Yutang took over a jar of wine and put down a package of silver worth more than 100 taels: "Now you know? The game is more dangerous than mine."

  Chen Yuan changed his mind and decided that as soon as he got back, he would immediately throw that woman out onto the street.

  It seemed that Bai Yutang had seen through his thoughts, and with a slight raise of the corner of his mouth, he said: "Some things, once done, must be carried out to the end, and cannot be withdrawn. Now even if you throw that woman away, the people from the Taishi Fu will still find her. I advise brother to hide that woman well, don't let her be discovered. For these two days, I won't leave, I'll definitely do my best to protect your safety, but after this, it's up to yourself."

  Bai Yutang had just flashed out of the wine shop, and those two guests who had been staying in the inn that afternoon poked their heads out. One of them looked at Bai Yutang's receding back and said to the other: "I'll follow him and inform Master Zhang."

  Chen Yuan's mood was tangled up with that woman all night.

  He never thought that the days would be so hard to get through, every moment, when the catcher walked past the door, when there were other strange guests staying in the hotel, on the surface he was not paying attention, but his heart was hanging in his throat.

  Don't think about tomorrow anymore, today has finally passed.

  Chen Yuan inserted the door boards one by one and then locked the shop from inside, letting out a long sigh, hoping to get through the night safely.

  Pushing open his own door, Chen Yuan immediately turned around.

  This was the habit he had developed over the past two days, closing the door as soon as he entered and not letting anyone in. Some of his former acquaintances might have wanted to come in and sit for a while, but Chen Yuan wouldn't even open the door, making excuses that he was tired.

  The first thing after closing the door was to quickly pull out the woman who was under the wooden board on the bed.

  Chen Yuan bent down and lifted up the bed sheet, and was taken aback.

  There was nothing on the door panel, which surprised Chen Yuan greatly. Before he could react to what was happening, he felt a cold object placed around his neck: "Who is it?"

  The woman's voice was a little weak, but Chen Yuan heard it as great joy: "That's great! Finally woke up!"

  She woke up and could still hold the treasure sword pointing at herself, which means she can walk now.

  As long as she leaves her own room, then there is one less trouble for herself, the biggest trouble.

  His tone obviously made the woman understand something. The cold object left Chen Yuan's neck, and the woman continued to ask: "Is it saved me?"

  Chen Yuan stood up, a smile on his face as he turned around: "No need to thank me."

  The woman's face turned angry as soon as she saw Chen Yuan's face. The short sword in her hand was raised again: "It turns out to be this meddling scholar!"

  Chen Yuan hastily dodged to the side, and the woman tried to chase after him, but as soon as she moved her feet, she pulled on the wound on her body, and let out a painful cry, falling onto the bed.

  Chen Yuan wanted to go up and pull her, but his footsteps stopped halfway. He was deeply afraid that if he went up, the woman would turn around with a sword, which would be too unjust.

  Then retreated instead of advancing, hastily ran to the door: "There's something to say, there's something to say!"

  The girl seemed to suddenly realize something, her face turned red, and her expression looked very unnatural. After a long time, she murmured: "I... my clothes, did I change?"

  Chen Yuan immediately knew what she was thinking, and coughed suddenly, straightening his waist and saying: "Miss, we are all children of the rivers and lakes. At times when life is at stake, if we are bound by etiquette, it will harm Miss's life! If there is any offense, please forgive me."

  The girl didn't say anything else, her face just turned even redder. The two people remained silent, filling the room with awkwardness.

  Chen Yuan thought he was a man and should take the initiative to break this awkward situation. He coughed again: "Miss, do you feel better now?"

  The woman seemed to still have a knot in her heart and looked at Chen Yuan with her eyes, continuing to ask: "Where did you sleep for the past two days?"

  Chen Yuan suddenly felt a bit annoyed. He was already injured like this, and he just took advantage of the convenience on his hands and feet. As for other things, he didn't have the energy to think about them anymore.

  "Rest assured, when I'm in the house, I sleep on the bed, and you can sleep on the floor. When I go out, most of the time I'll tuck it under the bed."

  The woman asked again: "Is there... is there..."

  "Enough! Have you asked enough? I'll tell you, even if I did do something, I won't admit it now! Do whatever you want!"

  This statement sounds confident and assertive, but also somewhat guilty. The guilt is because he actually did it, and precisely because he actually did it, that's why he needs to sound more confident and assertive.

  The girl was taken aback for a moment, and then her eyes suddenly turned red. Tears burst forth from her eyes like a fountain.

  Chen Yuan didn't go up to comfort her, but instead sat down by the door: "I'm telling you, crying is fine, but don't make a sound! There are countless people searching outside right now, and two groups of people have already taken shelter in the store today. I reckon they're just rushing over here! As a knight-errant, you might not care, but I'm just an ordinary citizen, I just want to do some business! I've been dragged into this for no reason, I don't even know where to cry!"

  The woman heard this and slowly stopped making noise, slowly turned her head to look at Chen Yuan: "No matter what, thank you for saving my life, I will definitely repay you in the future."

  Chen Yuan hastily waved his hand and said: "I just want to get better and leave quickly, and that guy, take his things away quickly too. Do you know or not? Once these two things are done, I'll change places and continue doing small business. We don't know each other, okay? Just don't remember me."

  These words are spoken very bluntly, and blunt words always hurt people. The woman stood up strongly, slowly picked up her short sword, and walked towards the door: "In that case, brother please let me go, I'll leave now."

  Chen Yuan saw the woman approaching with her sword, and had already dodged to one side. Hearing that she wanted to leave, he was initially surprised and delighted, but then expressed his concern, saying: "Are you leaving now? Your injury hasn't healed yet, and the streets are full of people searching for you, from constables to the Taishi Mansion, with countless numbers both overtly and covertly!"

  "Don't bother!"

  Just as he finished speaking, his body suddenly shook and he fell backwards.

  Chen Yuanyi rushed up a few steps, but ultimately failed to catch her, and the woman fell to the ground, her eyes tightly closed, her face pale.

  Chen Yuan slightly shook his head: "What's the point of a woman being strong-willed?"

  He lifted the woman up with both hands and laid her back down on the bed. He took her pulse with his hand, which was beating slightly weakly.

  When he sniffed his nostrils and found no breath, Chen Yuan became extremely anxious.
