Xiao Ru looked over with a puzzled expression. She saw a large group of people gathering at the end of the street. She remembered that the last time she came here, there was clearly no one there.
"Xiao Ru, one, two, three, turn around and run!"
Chen Ning did not say another word as she pulled Xiao Ru and ran.
But it was too late. There were already people in the crowd that had discovered them. They pointed in their direction and said, "It's her!"
Then the group of people was like a large black cloud, charging right at them.
Chen Ning and Xiao Ru had only run a few steps when they were caught up by the crowd and surrounded in the center.
It's over, they couldn't run anymore.
Chen Ning stopped moving. She decided to deal with the situation as it came.
She slowly turned around and cupped her hands towards an old man who was panting as he rushed over. She greeted him with a smile.
"Old uncle, I haven't seen you in two days. You look even more spirited and healthy."
That old man was the one she stopped on the street with a basket of eggs the day before yesterday. After listening to her eloquent words, he willingly took out ten taels of silver as a thank you gift.
So when she saw the old man and the large group of people behind him, her heart trembled. Her intuition told her that this was bad and she immediately ran, but she never thought that she would not be able to escape.
Her first reaction was that something must have happened to the old man's fat son, so the old man had brought people to settle accounts with her.
But now that she couldn't run, she could only take it one step at a time. She could only try to stall for time.
The old man was panting as he ran, but it wasn't easy for him to catch his breath. His hands were on his hips as he glared at Chen Ning with a fierce look on his face.
"Hey, little girl, why are you running? Do you think we are tigers or lions that can eat you!"
Chen Ning giggled and said, "Old uncle, you misunderstood. I saw that you were here, so I wanted to borrow a bench from the nearby carpentry shop for you to sit on."
She did not even blink as she said this lie.
But the old man clearly did not fall for it and gave a heavy snort.
Chen Ning continued to smile. Her eyes were a bit weak as she looked around at the people around her, "Are these old uncle's relatives?"
"No." The old man shook his head and said, "They are all looking for you!"
"Looking for me?" Chen Ning was stunned. Then she gave a bitter smile and said, "I don't know them, so why are they looking for me?"
She muttered in her heart.
If these people were really the old man's relatives looking for her, then she would only need a punch from each of them and she would not be able to walk away.
"Divine fortune girl, this one is looking for you to have your fortune read!"
A burly man puffed out his chest and spoke in a loud and coarse voice. His voice was like a great bell, and it was extremely loud and clear the moment he spoke.
"That's right, that's right. Divine fortune telling girl, Uncle He said that your fortune telling is very accurate. Can you help me read my words?" A thin monkey-like middle aged man asked.
"We've been waiting here for two days and we've finally waited for Divine Fortune Girl."
"Divine fortune girl, divine fortune girl, divine fortune, and divine fortune!"
Everyone surrounded Chen Ning in the center, talking at the same time, chattering away.
Chen could not.
Chen Ning couldn't help rolling her eyes at the sky. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Seeing everyone's aggressive stance, it didn't seem like they were looking for her to have their fortunes read. It was clear they were looking for her life, almost scaring her to the point of cramping.
