Chapter 408: Chapter 418 Trapped in a Sack

"I don’t care, if you two can’t get it done today, I’ll send you to be the front-line soldiers."

"Ah...?" That was the position in a battle where one was most likely to die first. Usually, that role was reserved for those who had made mistakes, or for slaves of lower status. How could they possibly do it?

The two house servants had long faces and cried, "It won’t do, miss. I have an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old child at home. If I die as a front-line soldier, they’ll have no one to take care of them."

"That’s right, it’s the same with me."

As Gu Youyou walked farther and farther away and these two useless things were still wailing, Yue Ruxue nearly fainted from anger.

"Then why aren’t you going?" she roared.

"Yes, yes, we’re going now," the two house servants stammered, stunned by Yue Ruxue’s roar.

Gu Youyou bought some buns at the Bun Shop, wrapped them in wax paper, and started to weave through the crowd towards Jisheng Hall.

She knew there were two people following her.

She frowned slightly. It was broad daylight and the street was not empty. Could the damnable girl from the Yue Family really dare to do something to her right on the street?

Gu Youyou’s principles were too strong, and she was too rational. Every decision she made was accustomed to being preceded by thorough consideration. She could not understand those who acted without thinking of consequences, but Yue Ruxue, in her desperation and hatred for her, had the audacity to try something on the street.

Gu Youyou, a frail woman, was suddenly bagged by Yue Ruxue’s two fairly skilled subordinates on the busy street, and the buns she held fell to the ground.

"Yue Ruxue, what do you think you’re doing?" The two house servants were swift in their actions. Gu Youyou only got out one sentence before her mouth was gagged.

The commoners nearby were startled, and mothers with children hurriedly protected their kids and moved aside.

"What’s happening here, a daylight abduction?"

"Is there no law and order?"

The people on the street murmured in hushed tones, and, seeing the ferocious looks on the two men, no one dared to step forward to help Gu Youyou.

Yue Ruxue, standing far in the crowd, smiled and snapped her fingers at them. The two men expertly hoisted Gu Youyou onto their shoulders and quickly left the scene.

"Ah, the person who was just captured seems to be Doctor Gu!" A woman who had seen it all recognized Gu Youyou. She had been treated by Gu Youyou before. Although she only caught a glimpse of Gu Youyou just as she was being shoved into the sack, that glance was enough to recognize her.

"Doctor Gu?" The crowd began to grow restless.

"We can’t let Doctor Gu be taken away by villains. Hurry, stop those two."

"Right, right, I’ll go to the Governor’s Office and report this."

With a leader, the momentum to capture the criminals rose. One person stepped forward, and ten followed; in no time, loud shouts to release Doctor Gu were heard along the entire street.

Several men who could run fast were already chasing in the direction where Yue Ruxue had departed. Yue Ruxue’s expression turned ugly as she clenched her teeth.

"You two, hurry up. I’ll block those troublemakers."

"Alright, alright, miss, be careful."

They weren’t exactly afraid of having captured Gu Youyou, as they were threatened by the young mistress, but they were scared of being caught on the spot by the mass of people.

Abducting someone on a busy street in broad daylight was something only Second Miss Yue could think of.

If they were caught by the furious crowd, who knows if they would make it to the Governor’s Office for justice before being beaten to death by the public right there and then.

Now, since Yue Ruxue was willing to fend off the crowd for them, they were naturally very happy about it.
