Chương 39: Chapter 39 Injured

The night market was noisy, crowded with people coming and going.

A man wielding a short knife grabbed a woman by the roadside, threatening her with the blade to hand over her money. As the throng of the night market surged, many good Samaritans rushed forward to help the woman break free.

But the thug was aggravated by this and yelled out something. Suddenly, more individuals armed with short knives emerged from the crowd, apparently part of an experienced and prepared robbery gang.

Shen Heyu heard the disturbance and instinctively wanted to keep her distance. She was a woman after all, and it was better not to get in the way.

However, she had only taken two steps back when one of the thugs, who had been in this line of work for many years and could tell at a glance that her clothes were valuable, came at her with his knife raised to strike.

Pei Yansi was quick to act, and before Lu Yi could, he grabbed Shen Heyu and pulled her into his arms.
