Chapter 287 - 287: Isn’t It Good to Be Alive?

“I’m a married man now. When a man and a woman meet, they should avoid arousing suspicion. Why don’t Madam help me resolve this matter?”Xie Xian said with a smile.

What a reasonable reason.

Xiao Baoxin had no way to refute him. He even felt that he had done the right thing.

Even though she had seen through him, it wasn’t his intention to kill her. He purely wanted to teach her the ability to solve such troublesome things. For example, her master would give her tasks one by one, and after she completed them, she would learn a skill.

It was right to say that he cared for her and cherished her, but he still had the open-mindedness of a master who let her do whatever she wanted.

“Alright.” She agreed.

Immediately after, Xie Xian handed the title deed and silver notes to Xiao Baoxin.” I only have one request for you.”

“Don’t hit people.”

As expected, there was nothing good to say.

Xiao Baoxin gritted his teeth. How violent was she to make him so worried?

“If you don’t trust me, you can go by yourself. What’s there to avoid? What’s there to avoid? She’s still your third uncle’s concubine.”

“Men and women should guard against each other.” Xie Xian was not moved at all.” 1 only have a private tryst with my wife.”

Xiao Baoxin:

Get lost!

It was infuriating. This guy had this ability. One breath, he could make her grit her teeth in anger, and the next breath, he could make her bloom with joy.

“Calm down.” Xie Xian hurriedly comforted him. He was the one who didn’t make things clear. “That Cheng shi is pretentious, shrewd, and likes to act rashly. She doesn’t have the brains to scheme against others. She thinks she’s smart and treats others as fools. I’m just worried that Qingqing won’t be able to take it for a while.”

Xiao Baoxin honestly said that after hearing his comments, she wanted to beat him up even before they met.

However, she wasn’t one to be disrespectful.

She wouldn’t easily make a move unless she was provoked. After all, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. She had martial arts, but she couldn’t beat up anyone she didn’t like.

She was very picky when it came to beating people up, alright?

Besides, he had such a poisonous mouth, so why would he need her to do anything? Just hearing him say it was enough to vent her anger.

Without saying anything else, the two of them got on the ox cart and headed straight for the Cheng family’s restaurant in Changgan.

It was not the main street, but a two-story building in a side alley. It was a restaurant for ordinary people. It was simple and generous. It did not have the carved beams and painted buildings of high-end restaurants. It was considered medium-sized in Jiankang City.

At this moment, the restaurant was empty and quiet. There was not a single person. They wished that the passersby would take a detour when they arrived here.

Xie Xian parked the car at the entrance of the alley while Xiao Baoxin brought Youmei and Mujin directly into the restaurant.

As he got closer, he heard the sound of drinking and merrymaking inside. The closer he got, the louder the sound became. As soon as the door was pushed open, a wine jar smashed into his face.

Xiao Baoxin subconsciously bent his waist to dodge, but his right arm spun in the air and grabbed the wine jar. With another turn, he threw it back the way he came, but the force was more than twice as strong as before.

A scream was heard, followed by a loud curse.

“-my head!”

“Motherf * cker, which idiot dares to retaliate!”

“Brothers, go!”

They clamored fiercely, but no one rushed forward. After all, it was obvious that the person who showed this move was a martial artist.

Some were holding chairs, some were holding broken wine jars, and some were holding plates that had been cleaned and had only vegetable soup left. The door faced a table of people eating. There were only one table of guests on the entire two floors. There were eight or nine male guests, all of them strong and stocky.

The innkeeper and the waiter were shivering in the corner.

“Guest, please go to another restaurant to eat.’The shopkeeper was in his forties and was warm-hearted.

“Don’t you know that we brothers have taken care of this restaurant?! Get out, or else don’t blame your men and don’t show mercy. “The tallest man shouted loudly.

Xiao Baoxin saw that there was nothing unclear about this configuration. This row of eight or nine people looked exactly the same. Two of them had the same mole above their left eyebrows. She would not believe that they were not a family.

And now, he was causing trouble in the Cheng Corporation’s restaurant. Could it not be the hoodlum family who had caused a life lawsuit here?

It seemed that he had extorted too little silver and was not satisfied. He was stirring up other people’s business here and wanted to squeeze more money out of them.

“What are you looking at? I almost got beaten up, and you guys are still staring at me?”Xiao Baoxin looked at the two in disbelief.”” Give me a hit.”

Youmei was a fierce person and had long been eager to give it a try. She was waiting for Xiao Baoxin’s order to bear the brunt of the attack and smashed her fist over.

Hibiscus naturally wasn’t willing to be left behind, so she attacked without saying anything.

Although they were called hoodlums, they only knew a couple of fist and foot skills from their daily experience in fighting. They really weren’t trained. As a result, Xiao Baoxin’s side actually won a crushing victory. Eight or nine burly men were beaten to the ground by two unarmed maids, groaning and begging for mercy.

“Are you still going? Do you still want to fight?” Xiao Baoxin sneered. How dare he show off his skills in front of an expert? Wasn’t it better to live well?!

“1 won’t fight anymore, 1 won’t fight anymore.”The burly men begged for mercy in unison.

The eyes of the shopkeeper and the waiter lit up as if they were looking at their idols. Xiao Baoxin then raised his head to look at the second floor. Madam Cheng stood enchantingly on the second floor and looked down with a smile on her face. It was hard to say if this gaze was directed at her or at the burly men who were determined to admit their mistakes.

The three young men standing beside her had very vivid expressions. Each of them had their mouths wide open and their teeth bared. They were all stunned by Xiao Baoxin’s move.

“I heard that you wanted to talk to me. Are you free now?”Xiao Baoxin asked with a smile.

With such a beautiful face, how could Madam Cheng forget that it was this fellow who brought the Xie family to bring Third Xie back to the residence and even knocked down her two sons?

She couldn’t forget him even if she wanted to.

Xie Laosan told her that this was the eldest daughter of Sikong Xiao’s family. She had beaten up all over Jiankang City, and even the young masters of the aristocratic families had been beaten up by her.

She couldn’t afford to offend him.

It was only when she saw her that Madam Cheng finally understood why Xie Xian had said that they would meet again in two hours. He had not thought of her stepping forward and pushing his wife to the front.

She didn’t know what they were planning to do. Were they trying to force her out of Jiankang City?

“Shopkeeper Tong, why haven’t you invited Madam Xiao to come up and receive the guests?”

She turned around and returned to the private room upstairs.

Xiao Baoxin gritted her teeth. She finally knew that Xie Xian’s worries were right. Just this face-to-face encounter made her hands itch. She didn’t know what this guy was pretending to be. Was he lowering his status by talking to her? He didn’t even look at her when he spoke. Where did he learn to act like this?

The last person who pretended to be like her had already lost his reputation and was sent to a nunnery.

No, there were two.

Zhou Weiniang and Princess Anji went as well.

If this Cheng Niangzi also wanted to go, she probably wasn’t qualified.

Xiao Baoxin flung his sleeves and went up to the private room on the second floor. He lay on the ground and called out to his grandaunt. He turned a deaf ear to the begging of his ancestors. Eight or nine burly men scrambled out of the restaurant.

The moment they went out, they puffed out their chests and raised their heads. They were no longer the same as before.

“Bah, where did this little beauty come from? I won’t let him off so easily.. Run, report to the official! Is Grandpa someone she can beat?”
