Even so, Yan XIubai did not regret it at all. He simply put his worries aside.

He had clearly realized that he just couldn't stand to see her suffer because he found her pleasing to his eyes. No matter what kind of person Qing Zhu was, no matter what she thought, he was prepared to protect her until the end today.

So what if he acted rashly? He, Yan Xi, was qualified.

That's right, he was the one who randomly made up the story about how he collected gold without a care. He wanted to see who had the guts to question him.

As the saying goes, face is justice.

Putting aside his status and family background, just based on Yan Xiubai's looks alone, it was already pleasing to the eyes.

In addition, his gaze was clear and his aura was powerful. So no matter what he said, the credibility of it was very high.

For these reasons, apart from the other party, Qingzhu, as well as the two bodyguards who were present yesterday, everyone else believed his words.

Everyone was lost in their own thoughts. After half a minute, no one spoke.

The green bamboo stood there blankly, finally comprehending the youth's intention. After all the commotion, he had made such a huge detour to clear her of any suspicions.

The girl's nose was quivering and her eyes were filled with tears. Her vision blurred.

Was this a god sent by the gods? Last time he had lied in order to help her out, this time he had lied in order to help her.

What did he do to deserve such protection? How many good deeds he had done in his previous life?

He wasn't even sure what had happened. He didn't even know if she had been wrongly accused and was willing to help her unconditionally, so how could he not be moved?

She had nothing, and she had not yet repaid the debt of gratitude she owed him. Now, what should he use to repay her?

Yesterday, she had said what the future would be like, but that was too far away. If he were to say such words again, it would be too embarrassing. It was as if he had drawn a big cake for his benefactor. He was completely unable to show enough sincerity.

The money owner stroked his chin as he pondered. Even though he had picked up such an expensive watch, the little girl had not thought about it. Was the money in his wallet worth taking risks to steal?

In order to cover up his embarrassment, he coughed lightly and decided to express his attitude, "Young Master Bai is right, it seems like I was wrong."

When Big Red heard this, he immediately lost his cool. His eyes turned red from jealousy and his teeth chattered.

Just now, she finally threw out the pot with great difficulty. In the end, the youth casually threw out a few words and helped Green Bamboo escape. This damned girl, wasn't her luck way too good?

This was really strange. Why couldn't she find a valuable watch?

Of course, if she were to run into one, she would definitely sell it quietly and would never return it.

She wasn't as stupid as that green bamboo. How much money she had secretly earned was actually worth. What was she supposed to buy that could she not eat?

Could it be that he would just leave it at that? But he was still unwilling!

Originally, he had gotten the money in his wallet. It was all this damned girl's fault that she suddenly appeared and disturbed her plans.

No, Green Bamboo had not been punished yet. He could not let her easily turn the tables.

Therefore, Big Red raised its voice and shouted in a weird tone:

"Is she that kind? I don't think so. Maybe it was because he didn't know what was good for him and thought that it wasn't worth anything, so he gave it back to the owner! Pretending to be a good person, you want the benefits! "

The young man slightly spread his hands and calmly said, "I also thought about it, but she did find something important for me. As the owner, it was understandable. So I gave five thousand dollars in cash as a reward. I didn't expect her to reject me. "

At this point, Yan Xi Bai paused, turned his head and called out, "Green Bamboo."

When the name was called, the green bamboo instinctively raised its eyes to look at its benefactor. Just as it was about to open its mouth to reply, it suddenly choked with sobs.

She immediately came back to her senses. She couldn't cry right now, she had to show off.

If the mood was bad, it would arouse suspicion from others. Since her benefactor was kind enough to help her, she wouldn't let him down. Thus, he tried his best to open his eyes and blink a few times, forcefully suppressing his tears. At the same time, he answered crisply:

"Sigh!"

The next second, a smile appeared on his lips.

"Looking at your clothes, I'm sure your family isn't considered rich. Why didn't you take the money? " Yan Xi's white pupils contracted as he calmly asked.

She adjusted her emotions as quickly as she could, pretending that she had really done those things. Completely cooperating with Yan Xibai's words, he gave a serious reason.

"Isn't it only right to pick up the items and return them to the owner? My family is poor, but we can make money with our strength. It was only after spending the money he earned from working that he felt at ease. Neither the watch nor the reward belonged to me. If I take it, I will have a bad conscience. "

Although the plot was fabricated by her savior, every word she uttered was from the bottom of her heart.

Owner Qian nodded slightly and let go of the green bamboo. "Since you can return the watch and say these words, it means that you are not a greedy girl. "Today is just a misunderstanding. You can go home."

Now that things had gotten to this point, it didn't matter whether this girl was a thief or not.

The crucial point was, he had to give the crown prince of the Yan Clan enough face. It would leave a good impression on Young Master Bai that there would only be benefits and no harm in the future.

An obvious bruise was left on the young girl's slender wrist. She spun around a few times before her numbed joints began to feel.

Green Bamboo turned to Yan Xiebai and gave him a ninety-degree bow. Words of gratitude, which could not be spoken in front of others, finally turned into three soft words:

"Thank you."

If she hadn't met him again, she wouldn't have been able to escape so easily. Even though he could not find the real thief, nor get an apology from Owner Qian, this was already the best outcome.

She could tell that Owner Qian trusted Big Red very much. The two of them seemed to be very familiar with each other. It would take some time and effort to prove that Big Red had set her up.

Master Bai had done a lot for her from last night to this morning. Thus, the most sensible thing to do now was to stop at the right moment. As for the rest of the matter, she had to think of a way to resolve it herself. She could not always give him more trouble.

After gaining the trust of the young man, Green Bamboo looked as though it had been injected with chicken blood. In an instant, it was filled with battle prowess.

In the future, when he found evidence that the real thief was Big Red, he would make this Boss Qian kneel down and admit his wrongs, and he would also send Big Red to the police station so that the bad guys would receive the punishment they deserved.

Yan Xibai shifted his gaze and saw the top of her head. The girl's hair was tied up casually with a pair of chopsticks sticking out from between her hair. A few strands of hair slid down his ear, making him look a bit messy.

There were no waves in his eyes, and no emotions could be seen. He simply replied, "I am only speaking the truth. There is nothing to thank."

Green Bamboo straightened his body and smiled shyly, "Then thank you."

Big Red was standing at the side. He could see everything clearly and felt extremely depressed.

This guy with the surname Qian was truly a coward that attracted the attention of men.

Half an hour ago, he was still so angry that his eyes rolled up into his head. However, the moment this rich young master spoke, he immediately gave up on pursuing the matter. If that was the case, wouldn't the grievances of Erhong and his mother be a waste?

She couldn't help but stop him: "Wait, I have something to say."
