Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Tang Zhiyun arrived, the shop owner happened to be enthusiastically offering to carry the herbs to their car.
Chu Luo pointed at Tang Zhiyun and said, “No need. The man who’s helping us carry the things is here.”
Tang Zhiyun happened to hear this when he walked over. He smiled brightly. “You are right, Junior. I am here to help you carry your things.”
He then saw Wu Yiyao standing beside Chu Luo. He thought to himself, ‘This girl looks so scholarly. She must be a very cultured person.’
At the thought of this, Tang Zhiyun asked, “Junior, is this girl your classmate?”
Chu Luo and Wu Yiyao looked at each other. Wu Yiyao said with a smile in her eyes, “I’m a few years older than Little Chu. Maybe even older than you. You can call me Sister Wu like Little Chu does.”
Tang Zhiyun didn’t believe her, so he didn’t greet her that way. Instead, he introduced himself. “My name is Tang Zhiyun.”
After Wu Yiyao reached out to him, she said, “I’m Wu Yiyao. Nice to meet you.”
Tang Zhiyun looked at the fair palm that was being extended to him and suddenly felt a little shy. He subconsciously wiped his hands on his pants and reached out to shake hands with her.
Then, Tang Zhiyun took the two large bags of herbs that the boss had given Chu Luo and the three of them walked out.
Tang Zhiyun asked as he walked, “Junior, you’ll report to the school on the first of September every year and attend military training. There are ten days until the first. Do you want to go to the library with us for the next ten days?”
“I’ll pass. I have something on for the next few days.”
Wu Yiyao asked, “Is Little Tang also from the Computer Science Department?”
“Yes.” Tang Zhiyun nodded at her. “I am going to be a graduate student soon.”
“That’s good. Good luck, then.”
“Thanks.”
The two of them spoke for a while before Wu Yiyao asked Chu Luo, “Little Chu, do you want to see the other pharmacies next?”
Tang Zhiyun said immediately, “Junior, take a look at anything you want. I will help you carry as much as you can buy.”
Wu Yiyao laughed softly when she heard this.
Chu Luo also smiled until her eyes turned into crescents. She said, “Let’s visit two more shops. We’ll go back after that. Otherwise, when the rush hour comes, there will definitely be a traffic jam.”
“Okay.”
The herb market was too big. It would be unrealistic to finish browsing it. The three of them strolled for a while before heading back.
However, not long after they left, Chu Luo warned the two of them, “Someone is following us.”
Tang Zhiyun and Wu Yiyao raised their vigilance at the same time.
However, they didn’t turn around to look.
Wu Yiyao said, “What should we do? Are these people sent by the owner of the shop we first visited? Are they here to take revenge on us?”
Tang Zhiyun asked immediately, “What happened to you before?”
Wu Yiyao told him briefly about their initial visit.
Hearing this, Tang Zhiyun looked furious. “Don’t worry. If those people dare to do anything to you, I will hold them back and you can leave first.”
Chu Luo glanced at him but didn’t say anything.
After the three of them walked out of the medicinal herb market, they still had to walk for a while before they reached the parking lot.
The herb market closed at five in the afternoon. There weren’t many people and cars in the parking lot.
The people following them were soon exposed.
It seemed like they didn’t intend to conceal themselves anymore and strode over to chase after them.
“You three, stop right there!”
Tang Zhiyun’s expression changed and he said to them, “Junior, Little Wu, go to the car first.”
“No need. You and Sister Wu can wait for me in the car.”
Chu Luo stopped as she spoke.
“But…”
“Little Tang, let’s listen to Little Chu.”
Wu Yiyao had seen Chu Luo’s abilities and believed that it wouldn’t be a problem for her to deal with those people.
Although Tang Zhiyun knew that Chu Luo was good at fighting, he was still worried.
Wu Yiyao could tell what he was worried about and said, “We might even become Little Chu’s burden here. If you’re worried, call the police later.”
Tang Zhiyun thought for a moment and nodded, then they walked towards the car quickly.
Chu Luo turned to look at the burly men, who quickly walked over with fierce expressions.
The burly man walking at the front pointed at Tang Zhiyao and Wu Yiyao, who were walking towards the car, and bellowed, “Stop right there, you two. Don’t even think about leaving today.”
As they spoke, they walked towards Chu Luo.
Chu Luo narrowed her eyes coldly. “What do you want to do?”
“What? Do you know who you offended today? Brother Lu. Offending Brother Lu is akin to offending us underlings!”
With that, they revealed the muscles on their arms.
“Since you dare to behave atrociously in our medicinal herb market, you have to be prepared to be taught a lesson.”
“Atrocious.” Chu Luo’s lips curled into a mocking smile. “I think you still don’t know what it means to be atrocious. I’ll let you all experience it today.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the burly middle-aged men felt a shadow flash across their eyes. In the next moment, everyone clutched their stomachs in pain, their faces pale and their backs dripping with cold sweat.
“Ouch~~”
Owww…
Owww~
Chu Luo dusted her hands and walked away from them. She said, “It’s your turn. I’m done warming up.”
The handful of burly men broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this.
Chu Luo looked down at them. “What? Didn’t you want to teach me a lesson? I’m still waiting.”
The men shook their heads repeatedly, thinking that they were really f*cking unlucky to have met someone who had studied martial arts before. Escape was more important, and no one was stupid enough to continue fighting with her.
The man who spoke just now gasped and said, “We were the ones who failed to recognize Mount Tai1. Miss, please be magnanimous. We’ll leave immediately. Right away.”
“You want to leave? Have you asked for my permission?”
Chu Luo picked up a wooden stick from the side.
After a swishing sound in the air…
Owww…
Instantly, wailing filled the air. Those people rolled on the ground in pain.
Only then did Chu Luo stop and say coldly, “You bunch of bullies. If I see you again, it won’t be as simple as just beating you up today. Also… tell that ‘brother’ of yours to wait for his misfortune.”
After saying that, she turned around.
However, just as she turned around, someone who was indignant took out a fruit knife from his body and stabbed at her, ignoring the pain on his body.
Chu Luo turned around and raised her leg.
The person flew straight ahead like a kite with a broken string.
It wasn’t until he was more than ten meters away that he fell heavily to the ground. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.
The others turned pale from fright.
At the same time, they said with trembling lips, “We… we don’t have a knife…”
Just as Chu Luo was about to kick that person, the shop owner came out. He had wanted to come and watch the show, but he didn’t expect to see such a violent scene. He was so angry that his eyes had turned red.
He quickly emerged from a small door to Chu Luo’s car.
Tang Zhiyun and Wu Yiyao were still worried about Chu Luo, so they stood by the car door and didn’t get in.
The two of them had been staring at that side when Tang Zhiyun suddenly sensed danger. He turned around abruptly.
This glance happened to meet the owner’s eyes, who was rapidly approaching them with a knife.
Startled, Tang Zhiyun warned Wu Yiyao loudly, “Little Wu, get in the car.”
Wu Yiyao subconsciously turned around.
When the owner saw that the two of them had discovered him, he stopped sneaking around. He raised the knife in his hand and ran towards them.
The knife was about to pierce Wu Yiyao’s right waist.
Tang Zhiyun subconsciously put his arms around her waist and pulled her back. Then he quickly used his arms to grab the knife.
The tip of the knife slashed across his arm, instantly producing a string of blood beads.
“Little Tang, your hand is injured.” When Wu Yiyao was placed on the ground, the mask on her right ear had been removed, revealing her anxious face.
When Tang Zhiyun saw Wu Yiyao’s face, he got startled as if there were white flowers blooming in his heart.
Determined to restrain them, the shop owner stabbed at Tang Zhiyun again.
“Careful,” Wu Yiyao quickly warned him.
Just as the tip of the knife was about to pierce Tang Zhiyun’s arm again, there was a swishing sound in the air. Then, a wooden stick hit the back of the owner’s hand.
Pa! Thud!
The moment the knife fell to the ground, the owner screamed.
“Ah~~~ The bones of my hand are broken…”
Chu Luo strode over as the shop owner covered the back of his hand and cried.
Wu Yiyao got anxious when she saw the palm-sized wound on Tang Zhiyun’s arm and the blood that was flowing out. Tears welled up in her eyes. “What should we do? The wound on your arm looks very serious.”
“It’s nothing though? It just looks serious.” Tang Zhiyun looked into her eyes and comforted her. “Actually, it’s just a small cut.”
Chu Luo walked over, glanced at his arm, and said to Wu Yiyao, “Sister Wu, there’s gauze and hemostatic medicine in the side pocket of my backpack. Get in the car first. If you know how to bandage a wound, help Senior bandage it first.”
“Oh… Okay!”
Wu Yiyao quickly got into the car to look for these two things.
Tang Zhiyun followed her into the car.
Chu Luo picked up the knife that the shop owner had dropped and walked up to him.
When the shop owner saw Chu Luo coming over with a knife, his face turned pale. “You… what are you trying to do?”
“You stabbed my friend. Of course I’ll make you pay with your blood.”
“No… Ouch~~~”
