On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Chapter 2106 An unexpected reunion

The little girl turned to look at the group of hooligans, her tone still firm: "I'll say it again, leave here immediately and apologize to this old man, otherwise, I won't be polite."

Scarface's face darkened, his eyes turning fierce: "You won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences! Get her and take this meddlesome little girl and that other girl away!"

The three hooligans immediately pounced on the woman.

The onlookers gasped in surprise, and some of the more timid ones even closed their eyes.

The old man shouted anxiously, "Watch out!"

The little girl showed no sign of panic. She nimbly dodged the first ruffian's charge and simultaneously raised her hand to slap him on the shoulder.

The ruffian felt a numbness in his shoulder, which relieved most of his strength. He staggered and crashed into a tree trunk, wincing in pain.

The other two hooligans were stunned for a moment when they saw this, then charged forward even more fiercely.

The little girl kept moving, dodging their punches and kicks with agility and precision, each strike landing on the thugs' vital points, instantly rendering them powerless.

In no time at all, the three rascals were lying on the ground, groaning and unable to get up.

Scarface was both shocked and furious upon seeing this, never expecting that this seemingly weak woman would possess such skill.

He gritted his teeth: "You brat, I'll remember you. Let's go!"

The group fled in a sorry state.

The surrounding onlookers erupted in cheers: "Good! Well done!"

"This girl is really skilled!"

The soldiers on guard duty rushed forward and subdued the four hooligans on the ground.

The little girl nodded, turned around and helped the old man up from the ground: "Grandpa, are you alright?"

The old man bowed repeatedly to her, tears streaming down his face, saying, "Thank you so much, young lady! Thank you so much for saving our lives! If it weren't for you, my grandson and I would have been in trouble today!"

The girl also expressed her gratitude, her eyes red-rimmed: "Thank you, you are truly our benefactor."

The young girl smiled gently and said, "It was nothing, no need to be so polite. I'm glad you're alright, please go into town."

"Yes, we'll go into the city now." The old man nodded hurriedly, took the girl's hand, bowed to her again, and then followed the soldiers into the city gate.

The little girl turned to leave when she suddenly heard someone call out to her.

"slow."

She turned around, and Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe walked over.

The little girl looked suspicious: "Who are you...?"

Yan Ruyu's attire was different from before, no wonder she didn't recognize her.

She turned to look at Huo Changhe, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

“You are… I remember now, we met at the Water God Temple.”

This little girl is the same poor girl we rescued from the Water God Temple. She was supposed to be gathering herbs in the mountains when she was captured and taken to the Water God Temple.

Unlike the other delicate women, she was the youngest but possessed a heroic spirit, and Yan Ruyu had a good impression of her.

The little girl looked at them with delight: "What are you doing here? I'm so glad to see you're all alright. Where are the others? Have you seen them before?"

Yan Ruyu shook her head: "No, what about you? Why are you here?"

The little girl sighed, "It's a long story. When I got home, I found that my father was not there and I didn't know where he was. I guessed that he went looking for me because I hadn't returned for many days, and we got separated."

The little girl's eyes reddened as she spoke: "But I've searched for him for a long time, and I still haven't found him. Someone said they saw him in Rongzhou City, so I came to try my luck, but unfortunately..."

Needless to say, it still wasn't found.

Yan Ruyu's gaze fell on her slightly thin shoulders: "So where are you planning to go?"

The little girl shook her head: "I haven't decided where to go yet, I can only ask around."

"Asking around is too unlikely." Yan Ruyu nodded slightly, her tone sincere. "I have a friend who is known as 'Know-it-all,' he has the best information network, and he might be able to help you find clues."

The little girl's eyes lit up instantly, then she gently shook her head.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I've heard that the information from the 'Know-It-All' comes at a price. I... I don't have any money. I'll have to find it myself. Goodbye, gentlemen."

After she finished speaking, she turned and was about to leave.

Yan Ruyu stepped forward and gently took her wrist.

“No need to spend money,” she smiled. “With my influence, he will help. Just wait for news.”

Yan Ruyu's gaze swept over her clothes, then looked at her slightly haggard face, her brows furrowing slightly: "You must have had a very hard time lately."

Why don't we go back to the city together and rest for a few days? We can make plans later, and we can wait for news from Baishitong."

"But..." She wanted to refuse, but Yan Ruyu pulled her towards the direction of returning to the city.

"Let's go. It's more comfortable in the city than on the road, and it'll be easier for your father to find you if he gets any news."

Yan Ruyu then asked, "What's your name?"

The little girl said softly, "My name is Chunni. I was born in spring. My father gave me this name."

When she spoke of her father, her voice softened considerably, filled with longing. "My father always said that I should be as resilient as a willow, but now... I don't even know where he is."

"Don't worry." Yan Ruyu slowed her pace and walked alongside her, her tone resolute. "The informant's network is extensive. As long as your father is still around here, we're sure to find clues. I assure you, I will definitely help you find him."

Chunni nodded gently, the confusion in her eyes fading and replaced by a glimmer of hope.

As they entered the city, most of the people wore happy expressions and gathered in twos and threes, discussing something.

"It's so satisfying to see Liu Jiulang's three doubles killed!"

"That's right! Those three villains, relying on Liu Jiulang's power, have committed all sorts of evil deeds. They should have been killed long ago!"

"I've heard that a person's head must be hung up for seven days before the body can be collected, just to show those who do evil what their fate will be!"

"This is truly gratifying! Absolutely gratifying!"

Discussions rose and fell, and the people wore expressions of relief; some even clapped and cheered.

Upon hearing these words, Yan Ruyu turned to Chunni and asked with a smile, "Would you like to go and take a look? It's right under the city gate in front of us."

Upon hearing this, Chunni paused, thought for a moment, and then gently waved her hand, her eyes showing a hint of resistance: "No, I don't like to see those bloody things, they're scary."

Yan Ruyu raised an eyebrow, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes: "I thought you were a brave person, since you just rescued that girl being harassed by a wicked servant outside the city."

Chunni's face flushed instantly. She stuck out her tongue shyly and said in a voice barely audible, "That's different... I didn't think that much when I was saving people, but I really couldn't bear to look at those bloody scenes."

Yan Ruyu smiled and didn't force her. Instead, she said, "Since you don't want to go, I'll show you around the city. You must be hungry after the long journey. Let's find a place to eat first."
