Chapter 241: Who's There

 Chapter 241: Who's There

Jiang Li's footsteps slowed down only after he had walked more than 200 meters away from the Jiang family residence. He had sneaked out as well. After the broken engagement incident, although Jiang Li's parents still indulged him, they imposed certain restrictions on his freedom. The servants who were originally supposed to accompany him were given instructions by his parents to watch over him and prevent him from going out until the situation had settled down. But how could Jiang Li stay put? Just a few days ago, he had just seen Shu Yu, and he was itching with anticipation. So, he had shaken off the servants and sneaked out. Little did he know that the beauty he had been longing for was following closely behind him. When Jiang Li left the house, his destination was Ningshui Street. Shu Yu knew that he had indeed discovered her identity. However, it didn't matter because soon he would have other things to worry about. Jiang Li probably didn't want to be seen by the people from the Jiang family, so in the beginning, he deliberately took routes with fewer people in the alleyways. This turned out to be very convenient for Shu Yu. When they reached the next corner, Shu Yu suddenly called out to him, "Hey." Her voice was hoarse, and her tone was quite impolite. Jiang Li was taken aback and turned his head to look at her. "Are you calling me?" "Yes." Shu Yu walked towards him, a smile on her face, and soon stood in front of him. "Young master, I have something good here. I don't know if you're interested." Jiang Li appraised her with his eyes. "Just you? You look like a beggar. What good thing can you have?" "It's something that can make you feel happy. I went through a lot of trouble to get my hands on it. I'm the only one in the entire Jiangyuan County who has it." Jiang Li's curiosity was instantly piqued. Something that can make people feel happy? His mind immediately went in a certain direction. Coupled with the fact that he would soon see the village girl he had met before, this thing might come in handy. Jiang Li raised an eyebrow with interest. "Show it to me." Shu Yu looked around and whispered, "Let's find a place with no one around first." Although this place was also secluded, there were still people coming and going, which made it inconvenient to do anything. Jiang Li agreed. He took the lead and headed towards an empty alley. Shu Yu's lips, hidden under her scruffy beard, curled up into a big smile, and she followed him. Jiang Li was already impatient. As soon as she arrived, he asked, "Where is it?" "Don't be in such a hurry. Let me show you." Shu Yu said as she lowered her head and rummaged through her sleeve. By the way, why did you come to me to sell this good thing of yours?" Jiang Li asked casually. "Because..." Shu Yu smiled, then suddenly looked up and swung her hand, a stone in her hand, and it smashed into his head with a loud thud. Jiang Li couldn't believe what he was seeing. "You..." He felt a dizzying sensation in front of his eyes and took two steps back before collapsing to the ground. Only after Jiang Li completely lost consciousness did Shu Yu finish her sentence. "Because you are the third young master of the Jiang family. Your Jiang family has done many evil deeds. If not you, then who should I look for?" That was the last sentence Jiang Li heard before he fell into a coma. He thought, so it's an enemy of the Jiang family. It must be because his parents had offended someone in their business dealings. He was truly unfortunate. After confirming that he had passed out, Shu Yu dropped the stone on the ground, smiled, turned around, and left the alley. However, just as she was about to walk out of the alley, her expression suddenly changed, and she sternly shouted, "Who's there? Come out!" (End of chapter)
