Rebirth of the High Family's Beloved

Songyaji was not very far from the Yan residence, but it took Yan Ci nearly half an hour to walk the distance of two quarters of an hour.

She strolled around and bought some small items from the roadside stalls, which made the people who had been hiding in the dark a little anxious.

"What did the master say?"

Jiang Ren, who was in disguise, hid behind a tree and asked the person who had just returned with the news.

The man glanced at Yan Ci who was shopping again, then turned to Jiang Ren and said, "Young Master said to take the man back."

Jiang Ren nodded silently, turned around and continued to stare at Yan Ci, looking for the right opportunity.

For Jiang Ren, catching a weak little girl was no big deal, especially since the little girl was alone and didn't even bring a maid with her.

After stopping in front of three or four stalls, Yan Ci began to move away from the crowd and walked towards a secluded path.

Jiang Ren took a look and sneered. Here came his chance. This girl actually took the initiative to walk to a place with fewer people. It was so easy that it really saved him a lot of trouble.

Then don't blame him for doing something dirty.

Seeing Yan Ci walk into the alley, Jiang Ren followed him in.

In the alley, Yan Ci's figure seemed to have disappeared. Jiang Ren walked in and chased him to the end of the alley, but still couldn't see Yan Ci.

"Damn it, he ran away!" Jiang Ren couldn't help but swear and punched the wall.

However, the next moment, when he walked out of this alley and turned into another one, he saw a pretty figure standing in the middle of the alley with her umbrella folded up.

The woman smiled at him with her eyes full of smiles, and said with a smile: "Oh, you are finally here. I thought you were lost."

Jiang Ren's heart was moved. The frivolous tone made him feel a little fluttered.

Yan Ci looked at the man opposite her. She noticed someone following her as soon as she went out the door, but he had been following her all the way without taking any action.

So she created an opportunity for him to show up.

I thought it was the elusive little guard beside Xie Chengyin, but it turned out to be a rough man with a full beard.

"Why are you following me? Who told you to follow me?"

Hearing Yan Ci's question, Jiang Ren regained his composure and remembered the purpose of his trip.

Now there were only two of them in this remote alley, and the other party was a weak woman, so it was a good opportunity for them to capture her and bring her back to report.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ren began to approach Yan Ci, saying as he walked: "If you want to know, just follow me obediently, and you can suffer less."

Yan Ci raised his eyebrows, "Are you sure it won't be you who will suffer?"

"Heh, you're quite arrogant, little girl."

"Crazy? I think it's okay."

Jiang Ren had already walked in front of Yan Ci, and Yan Ci did not hide, still smiling softly.

Seeing the little girl who showed no fear at all, Jiang Ren showed a ferocious expression and reached out to grab Yan Ci.

Yan Ci raised his hand and slapped Jiang Ren in the face with a loud slap.

Jiang Ren was stunned. He grabbed Yan Ci's hand and covered his own cheek which had been hit. His slightly hot face showed a trace of pain.

"You hit me!?"

Yan Ci suppressed his laughter, "Yes, I hit you. Did it hurt?"

Looking at the man in front of her with a look of disbelief, she covered her red cheeks and nodded slowly, saying, "It hurts."

Yan Ci tried to hold back his laughter even harder. This person was a bit stupid. What did Xie Chengyin mean by letting such a person follow her?

Because Xie Chengyin had sent her a letter before, and someone followed her when she went out, Yan Ci naturally thought that this was Xie Chengyin's man.

However, she sensed the man's ill will towards him, so she gave him a slap in the face to teach him a lesson.

According to her previous habit, when she met such people with bad intentions, she would beat them up first, but after she was reborn, she learned a trick from the Yan family - slapping.

Not to mention, slapping someone in the face is quite satisfying. Not only does it save energy, but it also allows her to maintain her image as a lady. However, it was her first time slapping someone in the face, and she didn't control the strength well and used too much force, which hurt her own hand while she was slapping the person.

It turns out that I still need to practice a few more times to learn how to hit others without hurting my hands.

Jiang Ren was a little dull, but not stupid. After being slapped by a little girl, he nodded and said it hurt.

I have lost all my face in the first half of my life.

Regardless of what the young master ordered, Jiang Ren, who was furious, decided to fight back first.

He raised his rough hand and waved towards Yan Ci. Yan Ci suppressed his smile, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and his body quickly stepped back in an instant.

Jiang Ren's hand fell empty.

However, Yan Ci tripped over a stone at his feet while backing away and fell to the ground.

Yan Ci sighed, this body was really weak.

Jiang Ren saw the opportunity when Yan Ci fell, walked over quickly, looked down at Yan Ci, and slapped him in the face again.

Just when Yan Ci thought he was about to receive the second slap in his past and present lives, he heard a muffled groan in his ear, and the man who was about to hit him was pushed away by the hilt of a sword and fell to the ground.

Yan Ci widened her eyes and looked at the man who appeared behind her at some point, the corner of his white clothes fluttering over her shoulders.

A large hand with distinct joints stretched out in front of her, "Get up."

Yan Ci's eyes suddenly turned red, "Brother."

Hua Cishu's deep eyes trembled slightly, "What did you say?"

Yan Ci suddenly regained his senses, "I said... Thank you, thank you for saving me, sir."

Hua Cishu looked at the woman's soft hand that she put into his hand, helped her up, and then immediately let go.

"This place is remote, there are always people with bad intentions, don't walk in such a secluded place alone in the future."

Yan Ci lowered her head slightly, the scattered hair on her cheeks covering most of her expression. She tried hard to control the tears that wanted to flow out of her eyes, and listened to her brother's concern for her as a stranger.

After half a year, I didn't expect to see my brother under such circumstances. I was surprised and delighted, but also couldn't stop feeling sad.

Seeing Yan Ci not reacting, Hua Cishu thought she was frightened, so he spoke in a softer tone, "You don't have to be afraid, that man has been beaten away, just walk forward and leave the alley, you will be safe when you get to a crowded place."

Yan Ci calmed down and looked up at Hua Ci Shu, his eyes full of pity, "I'm scared, please send me out, sir."

Hua Cishu looked at the alley which was only a few dozen meters long and could see the end at a glance. "Just go forward. I'll watch you leave here."

Yan Ci continued to act weak, "Sir, can you walk ahead? I'll follow you, okay?"

She knew that her brother was keeping a distance between men and women, so she could only find another way to get her brother to stay with her longer, even if it was just walking a little further, it would be enough.

Hua Cishu hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Okay then, follow me and I'll take you outside."

After saying that, Hua Cishu walked ahead, and Yan Ci followed closely behind. Looking at the straight back, Yan Ci smiled.

How she wished she could always follow her brother, just like when they were fighting against enemies on the battlefield, her brother would always protect her behind his back.

Although she was already able to stand on her own by then, in her brother's eyes, she would always be the sister he doted on and raised.
