Chapter 270: Chapter 269 Bear Saves Beauty_1

Seeing Qin Yi engaged in animated conversation with the Hua County Official, Su Pan’er excused herself and went to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Aunt Zhou still had a worried look on her face, and even Zhou Ning hurriedly approached Su Pan’er as soon as he saw her.

"Pan’er, are you alright? That person..."

"That person is Hua County Official from the County Town. He’s an official. He came here to ask Qin Yi to work as a court clerk in the county. Aunt Zhou, I’m afraid you’ll have to work harder for today’s lunch, try to make it as meticulous as possible."

"He’s going to the county to serve as an official? Goodness, what great news!"

Aunt Zhou was so excited that her whole body was shaking: "This is such a blessing! Don’t worry, Doctor Su, I will prepare a feast so enjoyable that even the official will want more after eating!"

"Mother, let me assist you. There’s some game meat hanging under the eaves, I’ll go and prepare it."

Zhou Ning, who was also full of joy, hastily turned around and left.

"Auntie, just do your best, there’s no need to overdo it."

Su Pan’er was amused by her words.

"Why’s that so? This is for the official, after all. Wait here, let me see what we have in the house and start getting prepared..."

Watching Aunt Zhou rummage through the cupboards muttering to herself, Su Pan’er felt a sigh of relief.

When she heard the animated conversation between Qin Yi and the Hua County Official from outside, Su Pan’er furrowed her eyebrows again.

To invite Qin Yi to serve as a court clerk, it would have been adequate to just send someone with a message. But right now, Su Sikong had personally conveyed the message earlier, followed by this visit from Hua County Official.

What did all this mean?

She could tell that lately, Qin Yi had been working very hard.

He was striving to fulfil his promise to sustain their home.

Especially after his old ailment was cured, he had toiled day and night, wishing he could live each day as if it were two.

On ordinary days, his smile was gentle, but there was always a hint of hidden loneliness in his eyes when he was quiet and alone.

But at that moment, he was a completely different person.

The person was the same.

The smile was the same.

But he was someone she had never seen before.

Confidence was beaming on his face as he sat there talking animatedly, radiant!

The dazzling light in his intelligent eyes was so captivating that she couldn’t help but gaze in awe!

Then she suddenly burst out laughing!

Perhaps, letting him walk the path he wanted to walk was indeed the right decision!

She quietly walked out the back door and headed towards the foot of the mountain, bypassing the courtyard.

Along the way, she ran into a few villagers who still pointed and gossiped at her. Su Pan’er didn’t want her good mood to be spoiled by these irrelevant people, so she walked straight through the crowd with an indifferent expression on her face.

Turning a corner, she heard a commotion coming from a small grove on her right. Then she heard a young girl’s yell.

"Clear off! Or else, hmm! Later, I’ll make you suffer for it! Hear that, out of the way!"

What was that?

A smirk crossed Su Pan’er’s face. She had often heard tales of heroes drawing their swords to help others, saving some rich young lady and starting some legendary story.

Would it be her ’lucky’ day to encounter such a scene?

What a pity, she wasn’t a man, so she couldn’t enjoy such a blessing.

She let out a small laugh, quickened her pace, and quietly followed the sound.

"This young girl has quite delicate skin, she must be a young lady from a rich family?"

"Nonsense! Which young lady from a rich family would go out without her servants and maidservants? Have you ever seen such a thing? Stop dawdling and get on with it!"

"Why me? I’ve never done such wicked things before. You go!"

"You go first. You..."

When Su Pan’er quietly crept into the grove, the sight she encountred was exactly as described.

A few village administrators surrounded a young lady in white who was yelling, her back turned to Su Pan’er. The village administrators were leisurely passing the buck.

These village administrators, again!

They really are the pests that trouble the village!

Considering that these men disturbed her own home just last night and were now bullying a young girl, a blaze of furious anger welled up within her!

"Out of my way! Do you hear that, or you will have to answer to me!"

The young girl continued to scream loudly.

But when she turned around, facing Su Pan’er’s hiding spot, Su Pan’er got a clear look at her face.

Su Pan’er instantly restrained her steps, and quickly hid behind a tree to observe more carefully.

After a while, she suddenly burst out laughing!

Although the young lady in white looked panicked on the surface, there was a flash of excitement in her eyes.

This was not the look that a normal woman being harassed would typically display.

Countless ideas crossed Su Pan’er’s mind at once.

Once she figured it out, she decided to step out from behind the tree outright.

"Stop! In broad daylight, publicly harassing modest women, is there no rule of law left?"

Su Pan’er was about to speak, but before she could open her mouth, a man’s scolding voice came from the other side, so she promptly drew back behind the tree.

A hero saving the damsel in distress?

She eagerly awaited the drama to unfold with an anticipative expression on her face.

The next moment, a man with a face full of pockmarks led a group of people and charged over.

"You scoundrels! In broad daylight, daring to harass decent women in Luoyan Village. Speak, where did you come from? Or else, this young master will beat you till you beg for mercy, let’s see if you dare to behave recklessly!"

He casually pulled at the silk clothes on his body, fanning himself nonchalantly with a folding fan in his hand, leg shaking smugly, as he cast what he thought was his most charming smile at the harassed woman.

In private, however, he cast knowing glances at the village administrators.

After exchanging covert glances with each other, the village administrators understood each other’s intentions.

The village administrator’s home got burgled last night, and they were ordered to investigate the Qin Mansion. However, before they could start, they were scared off by that mischievous girl, Su Pan’er.

As they were ordered to go to the Qin Mansion by the village chief, they had to report the incident.

Unexpectedly, the village chief was furious and banished them, warning that they would not be allowed to return until they found his lost item.

The village administrators were left helpless.

With nowhere to go, they had to hide from the blazing sun in this grove.

Unexpectedly, this young girl had come to them voluntarily.

The administrators were instantly overjoyed!

They knew that the village administrator’s son particularly fancied such bright and glistening beauties!

If the young master was pleased, he could put in a good word for them to the village chief and let them off the hook for their errand.

Having become accustomed to these situations, one of them went to inform the young master, while the others surrounded the lovely girl. Given the circumstances, it was most suitable for the young master to play the role of a hero saving the damsel in distress!
