Chapter 336 - 336: Do You Not Trust Me?



This person was a servant working for Second Mr. Ye. Zhao Chuchu had seen him once at the Yuan clan.

“Ms. Lin, Old Mr. Xia would like to meet you.”

Zhao Chuchu stopped the horse. A person walked from behind the servant and looked at Zhao Chuchu. His tone of voice wasn’t bad, but it was definitely not respectful.

Zhao Chuchu looked at the person from atop the horse.

She looked at him from an angle above, instantly making him feel a little infuriated.

“Miss Lin, Old Mr. Xia would like to meet you.” He repeated.

Zhao Chuchu laughed.

Ye clan?

These people didn’t even have much time left in Guangqing Province. Zhao Chuchu wondered how they had the cheek to come remind her of their presence.

“Sorry, I don’t know who that is,” Zhao Chuchu rejected him immediately.”

“Miss Lin, you should know we’re asking you nicely right now. Old Mr. Xia wants to see you. That’s giving you respect, don’t be ignorant.”

“Mhm, but good dogs don’t stand in other people’s way, now get out of my way.”

“You… Do you know who Old Mr. Xia is?”

“What does he have to do with me? I still have matters to tend to, move.

Zhao Chuchu wanted to see Xie Heng. She did not have the patience to argue with them right now. She spurred the horse and dashed out of the city gates right after saying that.

The person yelled anxiously, “Stop her! Don’t let her exit the city! If the deputy governor knows about this, every one of you will be punished!”

However, there was no way that these soldiers guarding the city gates could match Zhao Chuchu’s speed.

Before they even realized what was happening, Zhao Chuchu had already dashed out of the city on her horse.

She pulled the reins back to stop the horse for a moment and smiled at them provocatively, then rode away again. Soon, she disappeared from their field of view.

“Damn it!”

The people of the Ye clan tried to chase after her. They jumped and stomped in anger as they looked at Zhao Chuchu’s figure, moving further and further away.

But what could they do? There was no way they could catch up to Zhao Chuchu.

Zhao Chuchu was the only person who could save the two individuals in the Ye clan, yet she just ran away. The servant started to panic.

He failed the mission that the vice magistrate had assigned to him. He knew that there would be severe consequences when he returned.

Yet, in the end, they had no choice but to go back and face the music.

Meanwhile, Zhao Chuchu was enjoying the satisfying feeling of riding on a horse galloping at full speed.

She and Xie Heng had agreed to meet at a small town about six miles away from the capital city.

When Zhao Chuchu arrived at the town, Xie Heng was already there.

A smile appeared on Xie Heng’s face uncontrollably when he saw Zhao Chuchu.

“You rushed all the way here?” Xie Heng asked, “Let’s go. We’ll go find an inn for you to wash up. After that, we’ll eat and change to a horse-drawn carriage.”

“Not really. I ran into some people from the Ye clan, wasting time. I was afraid that you would be waiting too long, which is why I came here as fast as I could,” Zhao Chuchu said, “Did you reach yesterday night?”

“No, I arrived this morning. Did the Ye clan look forward to treating the two worthless idiots?”

“Yeah, I think so. But Qiao Heting had come to the Guangqing Province. I don’t think the Ye clan would be able to last for much longer, right?”

“Nevermind, let’s not talk about the people who have nothing to do with us.

There’s a dish in this town that’s very special. Let’s go try it later.”

Xie Heng preferred talking to Zhao Chuchu about food rather than those people.

At least it was a more meaningful conversation, in Xie Heng’s opinion.

A clan that was almost going to be delisted from the Guangqing Province wasn’t worth Xie Heng’s time.

Zhao Chuchu was immediately intrigued when Xie Heng talked about food. The two of them walked toward the inn.

What could evoke joy more than delicious food?

The two of them didn’t take special care to hide their identities.

After Zhao Chuchu took a shower and brushed her teeth, she went to the restaurant with Xie Heng to try the specialty dish.

Xie Heng saw that Zhao Chuchu liked the dish, which put a smile on his face.

“Is it good?” Xie Heng asked, “If you like it, I can make it for you when we return. ”

“It’s delicious!” Zhao Chuchu hurriedly nodded and said, “Da Lang, you’ve learned it already?”

“Not yet, but I can try,” Xie Heng said with a smile, “I’ll be able to replicate this taste with some practice.”

He didn’t tell Zhao Chuchu that he had asked several locals how to make this dish before she even arrived. He was confident that he would be able to make it for her.

As long as Zhao Chuchu liked it, Xie Heng was willing to spend time learning it.

“Honestly, I still prefer life in Lengshui Village. Although Guangqing Province is quite a bustling city, it lacks the human touch,” Zhao Chuchu sighed.

There are too many people with ugly hearts and few who are simple and kind.

Every big clan is hiding something hideous and revolting behind their facades. They had many secrets that most people wouldn’t dare to look at.

“But you have the human touch. You helped so many girls,” Xie Heng said, “You seem to have a lot more patience than usual for girls?”

“I’m a girl myself, so I don’t want to make life difficult for them. That makes sense, right? They’re not bad people. I think it’s good for me to help them, as long as it’s within my ability.”

“But you can’t help them forever.”

“That’s true, but for the moment that I’m helping them, I feel happy. Da Lang, I feel that life is about making ourselves happy. Of course, it is human nature to shun bad things and chase good ones. But the trouble that comes with helping those girls is nothing to me.”

She wasn’t afraid of death, and no one was capable of killing her.

“Da Lang, perhaps you feel that I’m sticking my nose into other people’s business or that I’m overly compassionate for my own good. But I think it’s better to let a good person live than die from the abuse of bad people. I follow my heart. If I think something is right, I will do it, and I won’t regret it.”

Just like how she took out the high-yielding paddy rice, potatoes, and other crops. She didn’t do it to get famous. She simply wanted everyone to be able to eat full meals.

If she had to be cautious and scared of the consequences of everything she does, what was the point of her becoming so capable and strong?

Yuan Hui and the second daughter of the Du clan were indeed over-protected. But they were good people at heart. Were they not worthy of her help?

As for what would happen to them in the future, that wasn’t but to Zhao

Chuchu.

If they didn’t mature at all after being saved by Zhao Chuchu, it was their own issue. Just like what Xie Heng said, Zhao Chuchu could help them once, but she couldn’t help them forever.

“I know,” Xie Heng nodded and said.

Zhao Chuchu continued, “Besides, I didn’t help them out of selfless altruism. I nave my own considerations as wen.’

The Yuan clan was the wealthiest family in Guangqing Province, and the Du clan was on par with them. These two clans were completely different from the Xia clan. Zhao Chuchu might be able to use her relationship with them someday.

Although she was very powerful in terms of raw combat strength, it was still difficult for her to fight against a crowd of people. Zhao Chuchu didn’t feel that she was invincible in this era.

“Da Lang, do you not trust me?” Zhao Chuchu raised her eyebrows and asked. Xie Heng hurriedly denied, “No, no, of course, I trust you.”

He was the one who asked Qiao Heting to come to the Yuan clan to propose. If he didn’t trust Zhao Chuchu, why would he do that?

If Duke Ding and the Yuan Clan became related by marriage, the Sikou clan would be forced to take action.

The Sikou clan had been eyeing the Yuan clan as well.

Actually, the Ye clan was just a vassal of the Sikou clan. The Sikou clan directed every action that the Ye clan took.

Otherwise, there was no way the deputy governor would dare to bypass magistrate Shangfeng and do something so brazen.

It was because the deputy governor was backed by someone bigger than the magistrate.

The Sikou clan had been cultivating its influence in the imperial court for so many years it had developed many underlings there..
