Chapter 1141: Don't Listen to Her Nonsense

~4 min read 714 words

Before long, a crowd gathered on the beach.

Some women skilled in swimming even jumped into the sea to save the child, but the wind had picked up and the waves were huge; before they could reach the little girl, the waves rolled them back.

Someone shouted: "Qiao Qiao Yunhai is here, Qiao Qiao Yunhai is here."

Liu Chuxue and Guo Yueliang looked in the direction the villagers pointed and saw a seventeen- or eighteen-year-old boy rushing toward them; without waiting to ask what had happened, he slid into the sea as smoothly as a fish.

No wonder everyone had shouted like that just now; this person was clearly very familiar with the sea. When a wave came, he would dive underwater; though he was still affected by the waves, at least he wouldn't be rolled back by them.

When another huge wave came, everyone on the shore held their breath.

Seeing the young man dive under the crest of the wave and not surface for a long time, someone cried out: "Where is Qiao Qiao Yunhai?"

Just as everyone was staring at the sea, the woman who had been crying and shouting started crying again, which made the onlookers feel annoyed. Someone close to Qiao Qiao Yunhai's family spoke up directly: "Shut up. Are you not annoying enough yet? When you brought Xiangbao here, everyone told you the waves were big today and that you should watch your child well. Now what are you crying about?"

The woman lifted a tear-streaked face: "I told her the waves were big, but she wouldn't listen to me."

At this moment, Liu Chuxue's eyes widened; she hadn't expected to run into Qi Shufang here. What was going on?

She knew the Qi family had abandoned Qi Shufang, but hadn't they said she was sent to a farm? Why was she appearing here?

She gently tugged the sleeve of Guo Yueliang beside her and lowered her voice: "Liangliang, do me a favor."

Guo Yueliang looked in the direction Liu Chuxue pointed and heard Liu Chuxue say: "Help me take a photo of that woman. Try to make it as clear as possible, and try to capture this place clearly too. I have a use for it."

Although Guo Yueliang was curious, seeing that Liu Chuxue didn't want to explain further, she didn't ask more, nodded at her, found two different angles, and took one photo from each.

After returning to Liu Chuxue's side, she asked: "Do you know her?"

Liu Chuxue nodded lightly and said nothing.

It seemed that after returning to the capital, she would have to ask Fu Yan Cheng properly what was going on with Qi Shufang.

Just as she was thinking, another group ran over from a distance. Among them, an elderly woman several years older trembled all over with anxiety: "You wicked woman with no good intentions! If anything happens to my Xiangbao, I will fight you to the death."

After scolding the woman, the old lady's body went limp and she began to fall backward, but fortunately, someone who had accompanied her caught her.

Qi Shufang was furious: "She insisted on playing by the seaside. If I hadn't brought her here, she would have made a scene and refused to eat. How can this be entirely my fault?"

As soon as she finished speaking, a small boy of about six or seven stepped forward: "You're lying. You clearly told Xiangbao to go pick up the glass marbles."

At this, the old lady who had been caught struggled and lunged toward the little boy: "A Li, what did you say?"

The little boy called A Li said: "Seventh Grandmother, we clearly warned everyone that the waves over there were big, but this woman still told Xiangbao to go pick up those glass marbles."

Qi Shufang, not expecting the truth to be exposed, hurriedly waved her hands and said: "Don't listen to her nonsense."

The old lady gave a glance to the woman beside her who was supporting her; that woman immediately knocked Qi Shufang unconscious, leaving Liu Chuxue and Guo Yueliang completely stunned. One look made it clear that woman was a skilled martial artist; they never expected this small fishing village to be a place where dragons and tigers were hidden.
