"Miss, behind us is a man with a thick beard. Servant is very scared, are they not bad people?" Liu Xiang worriedly asked as she came closer.

"Is that so?" Xi Jiu Er turned her head to look at Liu Xiang's words, and sure enough, a man with a full beard was following behind him. When she saw Xi Jiu Er looking at him, his expression changed slightly, and she disappeared into the alley in front of Xi Jiu Er. It seemed like he did not intentionally follow them, she had merely left them behind!

"Phew, that scared Servant to death. Servant even thought that he was a bad guy!" Liu Xiang heaved a sigh of relief, and patted her chest, which scared her so much that she broke out in cold sweat, and could not be blamed for being suspicious, but all the way here, she kept feeling that many people were staring at her, but she turned her head and did not see anyone, could it be that she was being overly suspicious?

Seeing that it was getting late, Liu Xiang thought about whether she should go get a horse carriage. It was really tiring to walk back and forth like this, and after the scare just now, although she guessed wrong, what if there really was someone who had ill intentions towards him?

The two of them walked into a remote alley, and suddenly, a man with a full beard came out in front of them. It was the man who Liu Xiang had said that she would follow them.

Liu Xiang had guessed it right, this person really had evil intentions. Xi Jiu Er looked at the man that was approaching her step by step. She quickly looked around her surroundings, only to see a beggar that seemed to be asleep on the ground not far away.

"Hero, if you have anything to say, just say it. As long as you want more money, you can have it. As long as you let me go." She believed that the person who took out the banknotes would be moved if nothing unexpected happened. But to a normal person, with a thousand gold, it was a huge sum.

As expected, the man's eyes lit up as he greedily stared at the 1000 taels of silver in Xi Jiu Er's hands. He never expected her to have this much on her body, so she should have even more silver in her family. The man looked left and right, thinking that Xi Jiu Er was really beautiful, why not let her be his wife?

Xi Jiu Er saw that the man's gaze had changed from greedy to scheming, with a pair of eyes rolling on her body, it was obvious that she did not have any good intentions. Her heart sank. This time, it would be a little difficult.

The man had an evil smile on his face as he sized Xi Jiu Er up: "Hehe, I can let you go, but as long as you become my wife, I will definitely not do anything to you! I am actually a very gentle person. As long as you follow me, I will definitely treat you well! "

Xi Jiu Er almost vomited, she was too disgusting! He did not even look at herself in the mirror to see what kind of person she was, she should be around the age of Xi Hong Sheng. Xi Jiu Er endured her disgust and said, "That's not good … "After all, the word of a matchmaker from his parents …"

The man with a thick cheek felt something was off, so he immediately said, "We don't necessarily need the words of a matchmaker. As long as you have me in your heart, your parents will definitely agree to it." The reason why he robbed Xi Jiu Er was because she saw Xi Jiu Er walking out of the jade artifact store several times. The gambling den was right opposite to the shop and she would happen to see Xi Jiu Er every time she came out.

He had lost it all today and was extremely depressed. Thus, he thought to himself about why he shouldn't rob … Even if the robbery did not succeed, he could still earn some money by selling the person to a brothel. Thus, he followed Xi Jiu Er, and was not too interested in Xi Jiu Er's identity. Seeing how rich Xi Jiu Er was, with such a large amount of silver, her family would definitely be rich, hence she had no plans to buy the brothel.

When Xi Jiu Er heard his shameless words, her face almost turned green, while Liu Xiang behind Jiu Lian also revealed a look of disdain. However, no matter what, this trial still had to be passed. She smiled sweetly and said, "But we don't have that many feelings, how about we cultivate it first?"

Therefore, he could not sit still anymore. He planned to drag Xi Jiu Er into the small alley first, and it had been a long time since he last touched a woman. This time, it was for the best of both worlds.

"Alright, let's cultivate our relationship now!" The man with a long face suddenly took a step forward, intending to pull Xi Jiu Er, but Xi Jiu Er agilely dodged him. He looked at his empty hand, and then said with a sinister look: "You actually dare to dodge."

"Quick, run." Xi Jiu Er pulled Liu Xiang and started to run, while shouting, "Help — — Help — —"

It was a pity that very few people walked into this alley. Furthermore, at this time, everyone was having their meal inside the house, so it was useless for Xi Jiu Er to call out to him. Looking at Xi Jiu Er who was scampering away, the man's face changed slightly and she immediately chased after her, "Hahaha … Run, scream, I want to see who can save you! "Hahaha …"

Because Xi Jiu Er had the spring water and frequent soaks of spring water, her body was as light as a swallow, and she could no longer endure and fell onto the ground. Xi Jiu Er suddenly turned her head, and saw the guy with gills grabbing Liu Xiang. Ye Zichen laughed complacently.

"Run, run. I want to see where you can run to!" The man swiped the dagger across Liu Xiang's face, causing him to tremble in fear until her face turned white. She gritted her teeth and looked at Xi Jiu Er, telling him to quickly escape! At most, she would just die and not let the man capture Miss.

"Let her go! "If there's anything, we can talk about it …" Xi Jiu Er sucked in a cold breath. Liu Xiang was the most important person to him, to be treated as a family member by the Wei Guogong. How could she allow Liu Xiang to fall into the hands of a bad person? The man knew at a glance that this wasn't a good thing. How could the video end up in his hands?

"Speak properly? Humph! I am going to enjoy this blessing! " The man coldly snorted and revealed a lewd smile. Suddenly, 'Dingdang', the dagger in the man's hand fell to the ground. He painfully covered the dagger as he yelled: "Who, who is that?!"

Blood was already seeping out of the man's hands. He looked around in pain and found no one else but the beggar lying motionlessly beside him. Xi Jiu Er took this opportunity to immediately pull Liu Xiang and run, and was still caught by the man with a thick nose.

"Trying to run? No way!" How could he let the prey he had caught get thrown at him to escape? When that happened, he would not be able to get anything out of it!

At this moment, the beggar at the side slowly stood up and coldly said, "Let go of the girls in your hands, let them go."

The beggar was covered in black paint and was so dirty that one could no longer see the appearance of the cloth. One could only see that he was short and his face was dirty and his eyes were as sharp as a sword.

"Hmph, if you want me to let you go, then let me go! Stop dreaming!" Just now, he didn't know what had hurt him. He was sure that the person in front of him was very capable. He didn't dare to offend him, but he also didn't want to give up the opportunity that he had gained.

"Then I won't be polite." As she spoke, she suddenly walked up and slapped the man with the thick nose. Such a big man should just stop rolling on the ground. He covered her face in fear as she looked at the beggar. Then, she scrambled to get away.

"Thank you for saving me!" Xi Jiu Er immediately thanked the beggar.

"You're welcome." The beggar said indifferently.

"In order to repay benefactor, I'll treat you to a meal at the mansion tonight, okay?" Xi Jiu Er was about to say something to the beggar, but she heard the sound of the beggar's stomach rumbling. Although she couldn't see the beggar's expression clearly, she could tell that the beggar was embarrassed.

"Let's go." Xi Jiu Er laughed amiably, and the beggar hesitated for a moment before following Xi Jiu Er and Liu Xiang. When he got home, the ex-sister-in-law had already been waiting eagerly for a long time.

"ex-sister-in-law, clean her up. We'll eat together with her tonight." Xi Jiu Er instructed the ex-sister-in-law, and told him to cook a few more dishes!

About fifteen minutes later, ex-sister-in-law brought over a cute and innocent looking girl. Xi Jiu Er and Liu Xiang were currently discussing what had happened today, and the moment they saw the girl, both of them cried out in shock.

"How old are you?" Xi Jiu Er could not help but ask.

The girl said rather awkwardly, "He's seventeen years old."

What? He's seventeen years old and looks eleven or twelve years old, younger than me?! Xi Jiu Er suddenly felt that she had a face that could deceive the world, and asked again: "What is your name?"

"Liu Shui." It was as if he was extremely unwilling to say his name, and it seemed to have a hint of repulsion. Xi Jiu Er did not ask anymore, and only said: "Alright, let's eat."

At first, Liu Shui was a little reserved, but after that, he began to open his arms and eat. The three of them looked at her in astonishment as she quickly scooped up food and dug it for herself, their actions making them sigh that they were not even able to catch up to his in their entire lives. Taking advantage of this situation, ex-sister-in-law understood what happened and said worriedly: "Miss, if that evil person is let go, I'm afraid he will cause trouble for us later!"

"Bang!" Liu Shui put down the empty bowl and said: "That won't happen, she won't come looking for trouble again. That slap of mine seemed to have broken half of his face, he won't live past tonight."

He actually had such a high skill! Xi Jiu Er thought about what she should do if she were to encounter such a situation again in the future. How great would it be if Liu Shui was able to be of use to her?

"Liu Shui, is there anyone else in your family? How did you become a beggar? " Xi Jiu Er started to probe her roots, ex-sister-in-law also understood Xi Jiu Er's use and decided to help from the side.

"How about... "Oh no, come with us." Xi Jiu Er revealed her purpose. However, she would not force him if she did not agree. "Erm, if you don't agree, then I will not force you." Seeing that Liu Shui was obviously startled when he heard the news, he only said in the end, "Um, I've eaten more, do you mind?"
