Chapter 2: I’m Sorry, I’m Just A Big Hoodwinker

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

There was silence all over the place.

Master Jin’s face turned blue for a while after which he adjusted his gaze and suddenly opened his mouth and said, “Okay! Little brother, you are indeed skilled!”

As he finished speaking, he raised his hand again and gave a thumbs up. “It’s even more upright. Lao Jin, the person I admire most in my life, is an upright person. You little brother, I’ll give it to you!”

Since Master Jin was clearly impressed with Cheng Ling, selling off Cheng Dani was now out of question.

For a while, Master Jin didn’t know what to say. People who were on the road kept staring and paid close attention to their faces.

Cheng Ling raised her hand and clasped her fists and said with a slight smile, “Brother Jin is so bold!”

The way she said Brother Jin immediately made Master Jin chuckle.

Cheng Ling raised her hand to the side again and said, “Brother Jin, how about taking a step to speak?”

Master Jin touched his moustache and said, “Oh?”

Cheng Ling’s posture remained unchanged, and her smile was graceful.

Master Jin raised his foot and walked over. There were thugs beside him who seemed to want to stop him or tried keeping up with him, but he waved his hand and said impatiently, “Okay, my little brother, hero boy, it takes a lot of time. Are you coming to guard?”

And with that, he walked to Cheng Ling’s side all by himself.

Cheng Ling raised her hand and said, “Brother Jin, please.”

The two walked a few steps to the side again, and they happened to reach the edge of a dilapidated shed.

This was actually the shed of Cheng Ling’s house. There were originally several refugees watching all this play out. Seeing the two of them approach, these refugees immediately avoided their gaze.

This was a quiet place with just the two of them.

Master Jin glanced at the shed and saw that the shed was low and cramped, not even tall enough for a person. It was just propped up with a few logs and some dead grass.

A straw curtain hung down from the front, which looked like a substitute for a door.

In this situation, to say shabby would be an insult to the word shabby, this was on a whole new level altogether.

He looked at Cheng Ling again, but Cheng Ling’s expression was calm. She didn’t even say a word. But after a while, she said in a low voice, “Brother Jin, listen to my advice, don’t go out of the city to do business in the next few days. It’s dangerous.”

As soon as these words came out, Master Jin’s expression changed instantly.

He looked at Cheng Ling with scrutiny in his eyes and asked solemnly, “What did you just say?”

Cheng Ling said softly, “Brother Jin, it’s not that I intend to alarm you. You can also see that there are more and more refugees gathering outside the city, but there is still no answer from the city. In the past two days, even the porridge shed has been closed.”

“Speaking of which.” She paused for a while before continuing, “So many refugees have gathered outside the city and are neither allowed to eat nor allowed to enter. That’s just a tinderbox.”

Cheng Ling looked at Master Jin with eyes that conveyed, “Brother Jin, I hope you understand”, and her eyes were indeed full of clarity.

Master Jin’s thoughts turned and he blurted out, “Could it be that all of it was intentional…”

Cheng Ling nodded. With a very solemn expression, she thought in her heart. ‘Your words not mine.’

Did the people in this city do it on purpose?

Since so many victims could not be relieved, they just covered up and did nothing, forced them into chaos, and then just came out to drive the rioters out? To get rid of the baggage along the way?

Cheng Ling couldn’t tell. After all, she knew too little to analyze the specific situation here. But it didn’t prevent her from fooling Jin Ye.

However, Master Jin reacted and quickly stopped and said again, “Good brother! I’ll remember your love. Just wait, Jin will repay your kindness later.”

After speaking, he lifted his foot and left in a hurry.

Cheng Ling bowed her hand towards him. Jin Ye greeted the thugs, took a few steps forward, then turned around again. He also bowed his hand to Cheng Ling. Only then did he take a group of his subordinates and leave.

After he left, the refugees who were onlookers scattered quietly. Some were even excitedly gossiping.

Of course, it seemed like they had scattered, but this area outside the city was just as big. With thousands of refugees gathered here, who could see who?

Cheng Ling still felt that there were a lot of eyes, either intentionally or unintentionally, projecting on her side.

There were also some people quietly pointing at Liu who was still lying on the ground, but no one could care less to know what exactly happened.

Cheng Erni was very excited and rushed to Cheng Ling’s side, grabbed her arm, and said excitedly, “Brother Ling, you are just…”

She didn’t even know how to describe her feelings, but she just felt that her younger brother who suddenly woke up was so powerful, it was as if he had been enlightened by a god at this moment.

Extraordinarily magical, extraordinarily surprising.

But Cheng Erni’s thinking was simple, and she could not guess that Cheng Ling had changed her head, yet she was full of excitement and agitation.

Using her own barren language, she finally popped out a sentence. “Brother Ling, I feel like I’m going to heaven now!”

Cheng Dani, who was on the side, also came over, but her expression was much more complicated; her joy contained hidden worries.

She then said, “Brother Ling, you protected me for which I’m thankful and happy. But what about the food? A-niang, she…”

Before she could finish, a man hurried over from the direction of the woods. As soon as he saw Mr. Liu lying on the ground, his footsteps stopped.

After a while, he readjusted his expression and rushed to Liu’s side squatting down, shouting in a sad voice, “Damn it!”

As he raised his head, he looked at Cheng Ling with an expression of anger and disappointment and said sadly, “Brother Ling, no matter what, this is your aunt, how can you be so cruel? Your hands are too dark, You are so rude to your own family, you…”

Cheng Ling interrupted, “Uncle, Auntie is fine. It’s just a little skin trauma. The reason as to why she is still lying on the ground is because her body is too heavy, so I thought she could rest right there laying on the ground.”

Uncle Cheng wondered, ‘Isn’t this mockery towards Liu’s too strong to be disguised?’

Although Uncle Cheng sometimes disliked her, hearing these words come out of Cheng Ling still made Uncle Cheng feel strange and uncomfortable.

“Hey? wrong! What is he here for?”

Without waiting for Uncle Cheng to get up and fight again, Cheng Ling walked to Liu’s side. She crouched down, stretched out a hand, and pinched Liu Shi’s center with lightning precision.

Aunt Liu screeched, “Ouch!”

She jumped up from the pain, and her flexible body was like a fat-headed fish that bounced from the water to the ground.

Uncle Cheng didn’t take precaution and was frightened. He put his foot down and was now sitting on the ground with his buttocks. He fell into a fight.

Cheng Erni burst into a smile.

But Cheng Ling said slowly, “Uncle, I’d like to ask something. Just now, Auntie was talking about selling my sister. Where were you then?”

Uncle Cheng was all stunned. He impulsivelyreplied, “What? Your aunt wanted to sell Dani? This, this can’t be done! This woman is too outrageous. I condemn this!”

“Oh, so you condemn it.” Cheng Ling said, “But I have two elder sisters, how did you know that I was talking about Cheng Dani?”

Uncle Cheng opened his mouth, resting on the ground with one hand and his head with the other, just staring at Cheng Ling.

Cheng Ling added, “Also, since you were not here until just now, how come you know that Auntie’s skin injury was caused by me?”

Uncle Cheng was left speechless.

But Liu Shi finally recovered from the fear of near death and had now put her hands on her hips, habitually resorting to her shrewd tactics.

However, Cheng Ling immediately took a step forward, raised her hand high in the air, and suddenly pressed hard on Lui Shi’s scar.
