Chapter 707: Why Are You Here?
Editor: Henyee Translations
“Yes, this girl is right.”
The villagers were united against a common enemy and were still a little afraid.
Young Master Shao had exposed his scheme and saved the entire Jiao Village. In the end, there were so many of them and Doctor Liu had almost hurt Young Master Shao. It was unbearable.
Therefore, Village Chief Jiao quickly got a few tall men to tie up Doctor Liu and send him to the government.
Doctor Liu was still struggling. At this moment, he regretted not taking out the medicinal hoe he had used to dig for herbs in the medicine basket. Otherwise, he would have been able to take this opportunity to escape.
Now, he had no power to retaliate. Other than cursing loudly with hatred in his eyes, all his struggles were useless.
Soon, he was pulled out.
Village Chief Jiao followed him out. Jiao Laosan originally wanted to stay and entertain Shao Qingyuan.
However, when he looked up, he saw the girl standing beside Shao Qingyuan with a shy expression. He immediately understood.
Hehe, wasn’t there a saying that a gentleman should not be a third wheel?
He wouldn’t stand in their way and stop them from talking.
Therefore, Jiao Laosan gave Xue Qin an encouraging look. Although the latter did not see it, he still went out with a smile.
Before leaving, he even glanced at Ah Zhu, but Ah Zhu did not react at all.
Jiao Laosan sighed. This man was really tactless. If he ruined his master’s plans, he would probably not be able to climb up in the future.
He shook his head and went out.
Seeing that there were no outsiders in the room, Xue Qin secretly heaved a sigh of relief. She turned around shyly and asked with concern, “Young Master, are you alright? Doctor Liu didn’t hit you just now, right? I, I was so frightened just now. I thought he had a knife in his hand. Fortunately, there was nothing. Otherwise, I…”
Before she could finish speaking, Shao Qingyuan suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction of the windowsill.
There were only villagers outside just now, so Shao Qingyuan didn’t pay special attention.
Now that the villagers in the courtyard had left, Gu Yundong and the others, who were standing by the window, appeared especially out of place.
Shao Qingyuan turned around and met a familiar pair of smiling eyes.
His pupils constricted, and the originally cold expression on his face instantly softened. His joy was obvious, and the indulgence in his eyes seemed to overflow.
“What are you doing here?”
His voice was gentle, and Xue Qin, who had her head lowered, did not notice his gaze. However, she was very happy in her heart and thought that he was talking to her. She quickly replied, “I saw that you had not returned all night and was a little worried, so I came to see if something had happened.”
In fact, Xue Qin had come over early in the morning and had long wanted to express her concern.
However, she never had the chance to talk to him. After she came to the Jiao Village and found him, she didn’t have the chance to talk to him. Not only was Ah Zhu by his side, but the village chief of the Jiao Village was also in front of her.
Who knew that Doctor Liu suddenly wanted to attack Young Master just now and she went to block it? Instead, Young Master noticed him and even… was so gentle.
At this moment, Xue Qin was actually a little grateful to the black-hearted Doctor Liu for creating such a good opportunity for her and letting Young Master see her intentions.
Shao Qingyuan said, “Come here.”
Xue Qin lowered her head, feeling even more embarrassed. Her heart was beating exceptionally fast.
She hummed softly and walked towards Shao Qingyuan.
However, she had just taken a step when she was suddenly pushed.
