Chapter 44 - Successful Escape

Chapter 44: Successful Escape

Outside the temple, it was snowing heavily. Snowflakes fell, and the surroundings were silent.

Such weather was not suitable for traveling.

Yu Wan glanced at the children beside her. She did not know if it was because the robber had drugged them, but they were still sleeping soundly. However, the three of them were breathing evenly and their faces were rosy. They did not look like they were sick. This made Yu Wan feel slightly relieved.

Soon, Yu Wan thought of Yu Feng.

She was originally going to look for Yu Feng, but she was chased all the way here by the robbers. She didn’t know how Yu Feng was doing. She hoped that he was smart enough to think of a way to escape.

Crackle!

The firewood in the fire exploded gently.

Yu Wan came back to her senses. She picked up the withered branch and stirred the firewood that was unevenly heated.

She had only eaten a bun for breakfast. So she felt a little hungry now. She went to look for food in the basket on her back. Just as she reached out her hand, she remembered that this was not the basket she had brought out from home. She regretfully retracted her hand.

Suddenly, a white pancake was handed over the firewood.

Yu Wan’s gaze landed on the hand that was handing over the pancake. This was undoubtedly a well-defined hand. It was strong and slender, but there were thin calluses and scratches on the index finger and the web between the thumb and forefinger.

Yu Wan looked at his luggage again. It was a bag and a long thing wrapped in black cloth.

Yu Wan did not look at anything else. She could not see it anymore too because this man only brought two bags of luggage.

Yu Wan took the sesame seed cake from him and thanked him again.

Yu Wan was about to stuff the pancake into her mouth when she thought of something and asked him, “Do you have more?”

“Yes,” the man said in a low voice.

Yu Wan added, “Do you need me to heat it up for you?”

“Okay.” The man took out the remaining two pancakes from his bag.

Yu Wan used the dried branches to build a simple rack and also roasted her pancake.

The sesame seed pancake was roasted until it was crispy and soft. When she took a bite, she could hear the crisp sound of crispy skin. The solidified white sugar juice completely melted, soaking the inner layer of the sesame seed pancake until it was soft. The sweet taste filled her entire mouth.

At this moment, Yu Wan was really glad that she had hidden in this dilapidated temple. She was even more glad that she had met this man. Not only did she successfully escape from the group of robbers, but she also ate such a delicious pancake.

But soon, Yu Wan realized that she had rejoiced too early.

There was another rustling sound outside the dilapidated temple.

“Is it that group of robbers?” Yu Wan’s hand that was holding the sesame seed pancake paused.

Before the man could answer, he heard a whoosh and an arrow broke through the window!

Yu Wan’s eyebrows twitched. She quickly turned around and pounced on the three children. The arrow sped past her back, passed through the fire on the pyre, and shot straight at the man opposite her.

The man’s hand touched the thing wrapped in black cloth. With a raise of his hand, a shining sword appeared and mercilessly cut the arrow in half!

Yu Wan thought to herself,?He’s a swordsman…

More and more arrows flew in. The window lintel could not withstand the impact and fell off with a crack. The cold wind mixed with snow blew in.

Yu Wan hurriedly stuffed the children into the basket.

The door of the dilapidated temple was roughly kicked open, and more than ten well-trained figures jumped in. All of them were holding knives and covered their faces, looking murderous.

Yu Wan was almost certain that this was a group of assassins!

These days were exciting. Not only did she encounter robbers, but she also encountered assassins. She did not think that a mere village girl like her had the ability to provoke a group of assassins. If she was not wrong, the other party was here to attack the man in the temple.

Coincidentally, she was with him, so she was treated as his accomplice.

This was great. She originally thought that she had a backer, but who knew that he would turn into a volcano.

Assassins were much harder to deal with than robbers. If she had known earlier, she would have run further away. However, all those thoughts are useless, she could only risk her life now.

Fortunately, her aunt had forced her to learn some skills in her previous life, so she was not helpless. However, the three little things in the basket…

The group of assassins also saw her weakness. One by one, they circled around her and attacked her basket.

A long saber stabbed over. Just as it was about to stab the basket, Yu Wan turned around without thinking and the blade was aimed at her heart.

In the blink of an eye—

“Big Brother, look! It’s that woman!”

The robbers had returned!

“Don’t get involved.” The lead robber stopped his brother, who was about to rush in. “We’re no match for them.”

Money was important, but it could not buy his life.

The robbers turned to leave, but Yu Wan said, “Big Brother! You came at the right time! They bullied us! Hurry up and kill them!”

“F*ck!” The leader gritted his teeth.

It was too late to escape. When the assassins heard Yu Wan’s words, they split up a group of people and started killing the robbers.

The quiet and dilapidated temple suddenly became extremely lively.

Yu Wan took advantage of the chaos to escape.

The man was still inside.

Yu Wan looked back at the dilapidated temple. He had helped her fool the robbers once, and she had helped him drag a group of people down with him. It could be considered even. From now on, it was up to fate and they did not owe each other anything.

...

With the killers restraining the robbers, none of them caught up to her along the way. Yu Wan safely returned to town.

She first went to the White Jade Restaurant to see if Yu Feng had returned. Unexpectedly, just as she reached the door, she bumped into Bai Tang, who had come out of the hall.

“Miss Yu?” Bai Tang was surprised.

Yu Wan was also a little surprised. “Miss Bai?”

Bai Tang frowned and said, “Where did you go just now? Your brother has been looking for you!”

Yu Wan said, “My brother is back?”

“Yes.” Bai Tang nodded.

“Is he alright?” Yu Wan asked.

Bai Tang raised her eyebrows. “What can happen to him?”

That meant that he wasn’t bullied by those hooligans. Thinking about it, it made sense. Although Yu Feng was honest, he wasn’t stupid. She was confused because she was concerned, which was why she thought that he couldn’t even deal with a few hooligans. However, it was fortunate that it was a misunderstanding. Otherwise, if she had been waiting for him at the White Jade Restaurant, how could she have encountered these children by accident?

Bai Tang instructed, “Don’t run around anymore. Wait for your brother at the White Jade Restaurant. He’ll come back if he can’t find you.”

Yu Wan smiled and nodded. “By the way, Miss Bai, I heard from Shopkeeper Zhou that you’ve returned to the Capital and won’t come before the New Year. Did something happen to the White Jade Restaurant?”

Bai Tang sighed. “It’s not the White Jade Restaurant. It’s the Capital. Something big happened in the Capital. Young Master Yan’s children went missing. I heard that they went missing near Lotus Flower Town, so I came to investigate.”

“Is it the children of the daughter of the General Manor?” Bai Tang and Yu Wan had mentioned the relationship between the daughter of the General Manor and the Young Master of Yan City. However, Yu Wan was not sure if Young Master Yan only had this one woman.

Bai Tang looked at Yu Wan strangely. “Of course it’s with her. Young Master Yan doesn’t get close to women. There’s not even a maidservant in his room. Rumor has it that he’s impotent. Only this Miss Yan made an exception for him. If he did not have the children with her, who else could he have with?”

Yu Wan thought of the children in the basket and pinched her fingers. “Could it be three children…”

“How do you know it’s three?” To be honest, if it weren’t for the news of her spending a lot of money to find her sons, Bai Tang wouldn’t have known that the Yan family’s young miss was so fertile.

At the thought of the little munchkins calling other women “Mother”, Yu Wan felt a little upset.

It must be the incident at the courier station that made me have a prejudice against her.

After finding a perfect reason for her unreasonable emotions, Yu Wan took a long breath and hugged the basket. She hesitated for a moment and lifted the blanket. “Look, is it them?”
