Chapter 2263: Wind and Love 06
The shopkeeper noticed Feng Yingying’s embarrassment and instantly understood. He snatched the hairpin back from her hand and spoke with more confidence: "Ha! I see why you’re trying to bargain and threaten. You don’t have the money to buy it, do you? If you can’t afford it, why bother with the hairpin? Pretending as if you know Master Yun! Go away, I’m busy, don’t have time to play with you!"
Feng Yingying was also angry. She wasn’t there to cause trouble; she genuinely wanted to buy that hairpin.
"I’m not, I lost my money pouch! I..."
"Boss, how much is it? I’ll pay for it."
A familiar voice sounded in her ear, and Feng Yingying was stunned. She quickly turned her head and indeed saw a face she would never forget: "It’s you?! How did you get out? Weren’t you at the Yamen?"
What’s going on? How could this be? She had just sent this annoying guy to the Yamen, so how did he get out so quickly?
Something’s not right!
Feng Yingying frowned, remembering that this water bandit was quite skilled in martial arts. He must have sneaked out of the cell quietly!
With a sudden swish, Feng Yingying gripped her whip warily: "Bold water bandit! How dare you sneak out of the Yamen, I’ll show you the extent of my skills so you won’t underestimate me!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the shop owner, who was gleefully accepting the silver from Xia Lang, shuddered, shouted, and ran off in terror.
The pearl hairpin fell straight down. If Xia Lang hadn’t reacted quickly, the hairpin would have shattered into pieces.
"What did you say?"
Xia Lang was baffled too. He had just kindly come over to help her pay for the hairpin, so how did he become a water bandit?
Feng Yingying had suffered losses from Xia Lang before, so she didn’t waste words with him. She forcefully swung her whip and shouted: "Bold water bandit! Surrender yourself now!"
Hearing Feng Yingying’s words, more and more people in the street began to either run or flee. The water bandit’s ferocity had left a significant psychological impact on them from past plundering and violence. Feng Yin had barely eradicated them, so how is it that there’s a water bandit again?
Xia Lang couldn’t help but laugh. Him, a water bandit? Could this girl be holding a grudge because he snatched her hairpin and is deliberately trying to punish him with this accusation?
Shaking the hairpin in his hand, Xia Lang teased: "Since you have discovered this gentleman’s identity, I suppose I can’t let you leave alive today."
Feng Yingying squinted her eyes and instinctively took a step back. But she quickly recalled her previous bravery in capturing this man and felt a bit proud: "Whether or not I can leave isn’t for you, a madman, to decide. You better think about what you’re going to do today instead! Take that!"
As she spoke, she wielded the whip in her hand, her vibrant red figure lunged forward two steps. She had captured this troublesome guy with this very move before, and now, using it again, she was quite adept at it.
However, the move that was supposed to subdue the enemy wasn’t effective!
Only to see Xia Lang deftly dodge to the side, the whip skimming past his waist without even grazing him.
Darn it!
Feng Yingying cursed under her breath. It seemed the guy had grown accustomed to her tactics, so she needed to use a different trick this time.
"Oh, your skills are still as ineffective as ever!" Xia Lang casually tucked the pearl hairpin into his sleeve, smiling provocatively.
