348 Naughty Little Beggar
SuLang chuckled, he patted BaiYingâs shoulder.
âHehehe donât be shy young man, as you are, I also get heavy pressure at home, my father was a true WahYeâs warrior son who was very loyal to his country, since childhood the old man always told me how WahYe, was a very strong and great country, abundant natural resources, very advanced combat weaponry, and WahYe is also surrounded by areas that produce high-value natural stones, every country race to have a connection with this country, but, that was then, now, is it still the same as it used to be? No matter what, the old man itâs still forcing me to become one of the officials in this small palace, what a hassle.â
âIs Young Master Su, donât really like being an official?â Bai Ying asked.
SuLang again frowned upon hearing BaiYingâs question.
âEm, how do you know my surname is Su, what, did I introduce myself earlier?â SuLangâs curiosity was getting higher and he often tried to peek at BaiYingâs face, bad, BaiYing thought, he was almost speechless, he really shouldnât know them, theyâve never met before.
âEh n-no, I heard it accidentallyâ
SuLang rounded his mouth, yes, of course, their conversation earlier in the noodle shop was very loud and attracted everyoneâs attention, who wouldnât hear it.
âOh, thatâs also possible.â
BaiYing peeked at the young master for a moment, at a glance, this young master Su does look like an ordinary young man, who is naughty and talks to his heartâs content, of course, with his nature like that he will definitely fight when his older brother outrageously assigning an unorthodox task to him was too egotistical, and young master Shi, if what young master Su said was true, it would mean that they had chosen the wrong person, however, that didnât mean he wasnât worthy of being an official, who knew his attitude had changed.
.....
âEm, how did young master know, that this servant, ran away from home?â Bai Ying asked.
SuLang pursed his lips, as if proud of himself, he pointed at BaiYingâs shoes.
âThe price of your shoes, as far as I know, is the price of two high-quality horses, even my stingy father never thought of buying shoes for half a horse, let alone something like this?â
Hearing that BaiYing just realized it, he had indeed forgotten to cover his shoes so that even though his entire body was wearing a shabby robe, his disguise was still not perfect.
âOhâ and his grandmother, itâs not kidding about saying all his clothes and shoes are number one quality, XinHua can have all of that so easily, even though he didnât expect the shoes to be so expensive. Speaking of that, BaiYingâs eyes opened wide as if he realized something, what if he sold his shoes to pay for his trip to CuiAn city, it could pay for him all the way back and forth, also a horse, he needed a horse to go there, but, that young man took a deep breath, he never had a good history with being a horseman before, what should he do about that?
âWhat do you thinking of? Parents are like that, they like to force their children beyond their capabilities, but that doesnât mean they donât care about you, because of my bad character, and not obey to the old manâs advice, I finally failed to get the position, heh, that old man would definitely have a tantrum, think about it I also donât feel like going home, itâs very dizzying.â
âThen, whatâs your plan to run away? Where are you going?â asked SuLang again.
BaiYing turned his head, thinking, he needed a friend and a guide on the way to CuiAn, while he had never been out of the house before, this was very inconvenient.
âEh, I, want to visit a relative in CuiAnâ
SuLang opened his eyes wide.
âCuiAn? Wow, thatâs quite far, at least have to pass SuChou, um, this is good, we happen to be in the same direction, how about we just walk together, after all the journey will be very boring aloneâ
BaiYing just nodded while enjoying the remaining beef jerky.
While they were relaxing enjoying their leftovers, from the direction of the road several horses were seen approaching, one of them, a large black horse on which sat a young man with a high chin, who else but ShiShen.
âHe young master Su, you still donât feel comfortable sitting with that beggar, hehe, of course, you are a loser, a loser fits in with other losersâ Hearing ShiShenâs words, his two friends who were also sitting on horses behind him laughed.
âHahahaha thatâs so trueâ
SuLang looked a bit annoyed, and BaiYing thought, why does the young master seem to enjoy making fun of this young master Shi? What is the grudge between them? This is really interesting, how about he dig a little deeper.
BaiYing saw some food scraps that fell in front of his feet, one of which was dumplings that were already dirty mixed with the ground, although somewhat disgusted, he picked up the dumplings and threw them at ShiShen right in his mouth as he laughed loudly.
âBrukk!â
ShiShenâs laughter stopped immediately, the dirty bun stuck in his mouth, he widened his eyes in surprise while it was SuLangâs turn now who couldnât help but laugh seeing the dirty food in the mouth of the very arrogant young master.
âHahahaha right on target, Young Master Shi, has your money run out to the point where you canât buy food anymore? You even eat the dirty buns, hahahaha thatâs poor of youâ
Everyone who saw it couldnât help but laugh, so did his two friends behind him, ShiShen took the dirty buns and took out the leftovers that had entered his mouth, he looked at the little beggar who was clearly throwing the dumplings towards him, BaiYing purposely provoked his anger.
âGod damn it! Apparently, this beggar is asking for death!â canât contain his anger, furiously young master Shi stomped the reins of his horse and advanced swiftly towards BaiYing and SuLang who were sitting on the side of the road, about to lunge at the two mercilessly.
âXiaoHei, kick them!â exclaimed the young master Shi as he threw his black horsewhip forward, everyone who was around dispersed and ran away as the horse fiercely advanced so fast to everyone on the street.
âWooh run!â
Young master Shiâs anger was unstoppable, without slowing down his speed was meant to attack the ignorant beggar who had insulted him, he wonât spare him even a bit, that useless beggar.
While, the black horse stopped its two front paws quickly, BaiYingâs pair of eyes under the hood flashed bright red, causing the horse to stop very quickly but unable to stop its hind legs, thus throwing the passenger from the saddle far away.
âAh!â Young master Shi who was blown away seemed to fly over BaiYing and SuLang who had not moved from their position yet.
âHeeee!!â XiaoHei, the black horse stopped right in front of BaiYing, lowered his head in front of the young man and let BaiYingâs smooth hands caress his head.
âHehehe smart boy, sweet XiaoHeiâ
Brukk brukk.
In an instant, it happened.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Everyone fell silent in their place, even SuLang who seemed not to believe what he saw, young master Shi was thrown far behind them falling on the wet food cart belonging to the merchant, his face and clothes were clearly soaked with the gravy, not to mention almost scalded from the hot gravy.
âGod damn it!â furiously, young master Shi pushed the merchant whose cart was broken by him who was still trying to help him up.
âDo not touch me!â all the people watching moved away, especially when young master Shi took out the sword that had been hanging from his waist, with his face already wet and the smell of food gravy, the young man stepped forward to attack BaiYing who was sitting with his back to him.
âInsolent, Iâll kill you!â as if the devil had possessed him, well, of course, that young man was the devil, who could possess him, the young man lunged with a sword that had been drawn from its scabbard, he had never received such humiliation before.
Just as he was approaching, SuLang who was sitting finally stood up and grabbed his long spears that had been tethered to his side, blocking ShiShenâs sword strike.
âTing!â
Loud noises were heard, as well as the wind that came out of the inner strength that came out when the two met in the middle of the road, blowing a lot of things around them, the residents who still want their lives, better fled away.
âRun!â
ShiShenâs eyes bulged as if they were about to pop out of their place, he couldnât stand it anymore, his face was red either from the heat of the vegetable broth or because he was really angry.
âYoung master Su, donât hinder me, I must teach that impudent beggar a lessonâ
âYoung master Shi, arenât you going too far? Heâs just a kid, and accidentally threw dirt in your face, who told you to laugh with a very big mouthâ
âWhatâs you have to do with him anyway? You donât need to defend him, heâs just a little beggar, you donât want to be hostile to the XinHua Junior Defense Minister just because of a useless beggar right? It wonât be so good for you.â
âWell, you can try me,â said SuLang with his sharp eyes.
