Chapter 367: Chapter 367: Request for Guards (1)_1 Chapter 367: Chapter 367: Request for Guards (1)_1 Speaking of which, Mo Sanniang was quite bold.
Any other woman who saw a man lying on the ground, uncertain whether he was alive or dead, would probably have been scared off long ago.
But Mo Sanniang let out a loud shout and rushed over.
Not knowing where ng Liangdong was injured, she didn’t dare to move him recklessly.
She extended her long nails and pinched ng Liangdong’s philtrum.
When pinching him for quite a while yielded no response, she gritted her teeth, pulled a silver hairpin out of her hair, and stabbed it into ng Liangdong’s philtrum.
This ti, ng Liangdong finally showed a reaction.
Da Niu and Liang Zi, who had arrived early for work, had also reached the shop by this point and helped Mo Sanniang carry ng Liangdong to a chair to check his injuries.
Luckily, apart from a big lump on his head from being hit, ng Liangdong had no other injuries.
However, his arm was grazed and bleeding.
Fortunately, Mo Sanniang was quick and had already bandaged him up by this ti.
There were too many people gathered outside the door, and seeing the ss inside, Lin Yuan knew that they wouldn’t be able to do any business today.
She gave Liuzi and Liang Zi a look, and the two, very cleverly, dispersed the onlookers and even closed the shop door.
Fifth Sister Bai and Aunt Chen had already brought a doctor.
After examining ng Liangdong’s head and asking about the basic situation, the doctor prescribed only a few symbolic herbal redies.
It seed there was nothing seriously wrong.
Mo Sanniang had been busy dressing his wounds this whole ti and hadn’t asked about the incident yet.
After the doctor left, Lin Yuan finally sat down and had a chance to ask ng Liangdong about what happened last night.
ng Liangdong was clearly still shaken, and it wasn’t until Lin Yuan asked twice that he lifted his bewildered eyes and said with a bitten lip, “Ah, I am really useless!
Boss, you entrusted to look after the shop, and I, I just…”
In his agitation, ng Liangdong even used the formal term “student” to refer to himself.
Xia Zheng, who always disliked these bookish types of address, cleared his ears and moved to one side.
“Mr.
ng, don’t bla yourself,” Lin Yuan said, having experienced ng Liangdong’s torrential speech before.
Fearing he might go on indefinitely, she quickly prompted him to talk about last night’s events.
ng Liangdong then nodded and began, “After you all left last night, I made so food since I had nothing else to do.
Unable to sleep, I just sat in the courtyard, lost in thought.
I don’t know how much ti passed, but it must have been a long while because there was barely a sound around.
So I got up to return to my room to sleep.”
“I have been living alone for so long I don’t have the habit of lighting lamps, so the courtyard was pitch-black, as if uninhabited.
Just as I reached the door, I heard two voices talking in the front hall.
I thought it was you, Boss, returning to fetch sothing you had forgotten, so I quickly made my way to the front hall.”
Pausing here, ng Liangdong fell silent for a long ti, clearly troubled by the mory of the incident and unsure how to continue.
Lin Yuan and the others understood his feelings and waited patiently for him to resu.
Finally, ng Liangdong spoke again, “To my surprise, as soon as I reached the front hall, I realized that sothing was amiss.
One of the n said, ‘Big brother, there’s nothing in this shop, not a bit of silver—so poor!’ The other replied angrily, ‘Damn it!
It looked so impressive, but it’s just an empty shell!
They’ve really put one over on us!'”
As ng Liangdong recounted, he even mimicked the tone of the two n, particularly the phrase “Damn it!” Coming from such a reserved person like him, it was completely out of place, and even Mo Sanniang couldn’t help but laugh.
ng Liangdong himself seed completely unaware of anything amiss and continued with the events of the previous night.
