Chapter 847: Chapter 847 Who Allowed You to Steal? Chapter 847: Chapter 847 Who Allowed You to Steal? “Ah–!”

After falling, Su Yunjin cried out in pain.

A piercing ache in the palm of her hand, Su Yunjin looked at her hands only to see both had been scraped raw, and her chin was also bruised, then she looked up for the thief.

Where was the thief’s trace now?

After Su Yunjin had fallen.

The thief had vanished without a trace.

Ignoring the pain in her palms.

Su Yunjin got up intending to catch the thief.

Propelling herself upright, with a movement, Su Yunjin belatedly realized her foot was also in pain; she likely twisted it when she fell.

Being injured like this, walking might be an issue, let alone catching the thief, right?

Staring at her bruised foot, Su Yunjin felt somewhat dejected.

It seemed unlikely that she would catch the thief today!

Just when Su Yunjin thought she couldn’t catch the thief, she suddenly heard a scream, and then, to her surprise, she saw the thief who had snatched her purse being thrown in front of her. He lay on the ground, howling in pain, clutching the purse he’d stolen from Su Yunjin.

The purse?

Her gold leaves?

Spotting her own purse.

Her eyes lit up.

Su Yunjin was about to snatch it back.

Before Su Yunjin could move, a tall man bent over to grab the purse from the thief’s hand and handed it to her, “Miss Su, here, your purse.”

Su Yunjin did not reach for the purse but instead looked up at the man before her in surprise, “Master Chu, is it you?” So, it was Master Chu who had helped her catch the thief who stole her purse?

Master Chu did not reply to Su Yunjin’s question, seeing the gold leaves in the purse.

“Madam Su, did you visit the Prince Qi Residence today?” Master Chu recognized at a glance that the gold leaves in the purse were usually given by the old Princess as rewards to servants.

Now that Su Yunjin’s purse contained gold leaves from the old Princess, it was clear they must have been a reward given to her.

Su Yunjin did not deny it.

“Master Chu, indeed, I did visit the Wang Residence today,” Su Yunjin nodded, and Master Chu casually handed back her purse. Someone in the crowd was shouting, “The thief is trying to run, everyone catch him, quick, don’t let the thief escape.”

Hearing the commotion in the crowd, Su Yunjin instinctively looked towards the thief, only to see that the thief, who had been wailing on the ground just before, was now taking advantage of Master Chu and her distraction to get up and attempt to flee again.

Master Chu squinted at the thief preparing to escape but didn’t move to catch him himself; instead, he signaled an aide with a glance.

Understanding Master Chu’s intention, the aide promptly arranged for several people to give chase. Soon, the thief was captured again, and cheers erupted from the crowd.

“Beat him, beat him, don’t let this thief escape again,” someone in the crowd shouted, throwing rotten leaves. Su Yunjin walked up to the thief.

She kicked the thief, “Who said you could steal my purse?” The thief, restrained by Master Chu’s men, could not fight back.

After being kicked by Su Yunjin.

The thief wore a pleading face.

“Young lady, I was wrong, wrong, I shouldn’t have stolen your purse. It was just a moment of folly, yes, a moment of folly. Young lady, a person of your stature should not mind offenses from one such as myself; please forgive me this once?”

The thief begged for mercy, and the crowd all said, “He can’t be let go, a thief like this will steal again if he’s spared now. Take him to the Governor’s Office, report it to the officials.”
