~Vrrrrmmmmmm~~
The vehicle drove in silence, with everyone imrsed in deep thought.
What was going to happen? How would today's event turn out?
Will the luck-stolen family be able to survive this catastrophe?
Chiyou stared at the white fluffy clouds with an expressionless face as if drawn into a world of her own.
She felt like she was going to face off a mighty enemy in so final movie battle.
And at this mont, the closer they got to her village, the more her heart drumd chaotically.
Vrrrrmmmm~~
Their vehicle drove out to the city and followed along the main road, passing several trees along the roads.
And soon, they made a branch towards one of dusty, stone-filled roads with pot-holes in it.
The road wasn't tarred in any way and was very uneven as well.
Nonetheless, it was indeed a big 3-lane road.
And from ti to ti, they would see several dusty trucks carrying fruits or private rchandise from being that wanted to go to the city and sell their goods.
At tis, they would also see the villagers with farming tools as well.
The air here was far cleaner and far breathable than that in the city.
And as they drove by, the villagers on foot looked at their car in shock and disbelief.
Oh my God!
They didn't know how much such a car would cost. But just looking at how shiny and nice-looking it was, they felt that it should be pretty expensive!
"Waw! Just look at that car? Do you think that it's so rich tycoon coming to see the Village chief again?"
"Hey! It's possible. After all, wasn't it just 3 months ago that those big city people ca to see the village chief to acquire land?"
"Yes. Yes. Yes... I think that might be it!"
"No way! The last group of people that ca arrived here in a large number. But this is just one vehicle driving by. So it's probably so rich guy looking for soone to marry."
"Hey! Do you think that the guy ca for the village chief's daughter? Ahhhh!~~ I can already see it now. The village Chief's daughter must've been able to catch the eyes of so noble young master. And he's here to propose to her!"
"Wow! What a real Cinderella story."
"Bullish**! How co it's the Village Chief's daughter who's the most suited to marry such a wealthy Young Master? What's wrong with my JiJi?"
"Yeah! What makes that arrogant sl**'s daughter better than ours?"
(*^*)
....
The crowd of passerbys gossiped and ca up with theories about why such a luxury vehicle would pass through this path or head to their village.
It was just so bizarre and eye-catching to see such a feat!
And Chiyou, who was in the car, only felt like leaning down into her seat for fear that anyone would see her.
She couldn't even hear what people were saying, but knowing how rumours and speculation were quick to spread in her village, she knew that her reputation would go down the gutters after she was caught or seen stepping out of the vehicle.
So might speculate and start calling her a Money-worshipper.
Moreover, after the Grandmaster solved her problem, the mont when people would no longer see him around her, they would start saying that he dumped her for this, that and whatnot.
The colour from her face drained the mont Chiyou saw a few famous village gossipers ahead.
"Relax. They can't see through the glass." Butler Sheng said casually, without taking his eyes off the road.
Chiyou gawked in embarrassnt from his words: "Th-thank you."
With that, she tried to control her nerves while sitting firmly in her seat.
And Dorian, who saw her reaction, calmly closed his eyes yet again and began scanning his environnt.
Zoom!
Like an eagle's eyes, he peered ahead in full ficus-mode, seeing far more than what ordinary humans could.
His senses were heightened so much that he could detect even the slightest change in weather.
Dorian searched and did a few calculations for a while before quickly opening his eyes again.
Butler Sheng nodded his head after suddenly hearing Dorian's words in his head.
Vrrrmmmm!~~
The car speeded up a bit, leaving the very few passerbys on the road starting in wonder.
And after driving onwards for a bit, it took a sharp grassy bend that looked like a one-way road deep into the forest.
You know, as farrs and villagers, these paths were there for those who had to transport goods from their cultivated plot of land up the high hilly trails.
Like so, they drove in and ca across several of these man-made paths, going towards all sorts of directions.
"Stay foremost Left!"
It was the most desolate amongst them all.
Good.
~Bam!
They stepped out of the car and shut the doors amidst Chiyou's worries.
"Grandmaster... pardon my rudeness, but I think it's a bad idea for you to park your vehicle here." She said anxiously while still looking around vigilantly.
"Grandmaster, just as every society, there are always thieves amongst us all. So don't think that just because we're village folks, so people won't dare to steal from you." She warned again.
But no matter how she warned, no one seed to listen to her. It was as though she were unnoticeable or sothing.
And for this, she only had invisible tears in her eyes to shed for this matter.
Do you know how desperate, dangerous and ruthless village thieves were?
Leave such a fine car out in the open like this, then once any of them find it, if they couldn't steal the car as a whole, then they would settle for taking pieces of it instead.
That's right.
She was talking about stealing the tires, windows and even the engine of the car.
Hell! Don't joke with people here.
Whatever could make them a quick buck without them having to lose money from their own pockets was a damn good deal.
Now, Chiyou was perplexed and helpless in this matter.
(:T0T:)
'Grandmaster... It's not that I want to insult you, but could it be that you're so smart to the point that you lack common sense?'
