Chapter 1398: Chapter 1392: Left With Someone_1 Chapter 1398: Chapter 1392: Left With Someone_1 After speaking with the two children, Qin Xue started strolling leisurely with Chu Molin, while Xue Ling went off on her own to the other side.
“Little girl, did you come alone? Where are your parents?” Xue Ling heard someone query as soon as she reached a stall in a more secluded part of the market.
“My family is over there.” Xue Ling looked back at the person who asked. This man clearly had ill intentions. What was he up to?
“I see. Do you like our headdress? How about uncle give you one?” The man asked Xue Ling.
“No need, I have money to buy.” Xue Ling took out two dollars from her pocket.
“There are lots of beautiful headdresses and hairpins at uncle’s home. Do you want to come with me to take a look?” Upon seeing the money in Xue Ling’s hand, the man’s heart rejoiced. The child was from a rich family, that’s why she could casually pull out such amount.
“No, my sister told me not to go with strangers.” Xue Ling shook her head and refused. Inwardly, she sneered. Was he trying to kidnap her?
It seems that there are kidnappers in every era, it just depends on whether you encounter one or not.
“Uncle isn’t a bad guy. You see, uncle’s stall is right here. You can come with me to pick at home and then we return here.” The man was surprised by the girl’s guarded instincts. That complicated things.
“The forehead of a bad guy wouldn’t be labeled I am a bad guy. How would I know if you are a bad guy?” Xue Ling smirked. Did he perceive her as a three-year-old?
“Little girl, it’s best to be careful. We’ve heard rumours of kidnappers here, luring children away to sell them.” Someone hearing Xue Ling’s words chimed in.
“Thank you, Auntie. I just feel that some people do not seem like good people.” Xue Ling pretended not to understand, choosing to echo the woman’s words instead.
“Well, it’s good to be cautious. That’s my shop over there. Would you like to go in and take a look? There are many interesting things inside.” The woman laughed awkwardly. Whose outspoken child was this?
“Sure.” Xue Ling wondered what this woman was trying to do. Was she planning to play the double act with the man earlier? If so, she had to check it out for herself and see how many children had fallen for their ruse.
“Come with me.” The woman gave a furtive wink to the man, indicating she would handle the situation.
The man nodded slightly, then began tending to his stall, introducing his goods to passing customers.
And so, Xue Ling feigned innocence, following the woman to her shop. Upon entering, she noticed something different immediately – the shop was heavily fragranced, a scent that was intoxicating enough to cloud one’s mind.
If it was just the fragrance burning, there would be no problem. But the woman also wore a different scent, which was slightly concerning. When combined, the two scents would have a different effect, and Xue Ling could guess the woman’s purpose.
Xue Ling pretended to be oblivious and continued to follow the woman into the shop. As soon as the woman turned her back, she quickly covered her mouth with her hand retrieved from her pocket before swiftly removing it.
Xue Ling swallowed and then calmly followed the woman as if nothing odd had happened.
“Auntie, what are you going to show me?” Xue Ling looked around the store, which was filled with numerous exquisite items. Yet, her thoughts were not on the merchandise but on what was to come.
