Huliang was somewhat afraid of Shao Qingyuan, or rather, in the entire Yongfu Village, there wasn’t a teenager in his age group who wasn’t afraid of him.

So, he immediately stopped and ran behind the big tree near the village entrance, feeling anxious but still waiting for Shao Qingyuan to pass by.

Fortunately, Shao Qingyuan walked fast and disappeared after a while.

Huliang breathed a sigh of relief and continued on his way to the county town. However, with Shao Qingyuan ahead, he didn’t walk as fast as before.

Shao Qingyuan didn’t notice him, but Huliang was still anxious.

This morning, he had gone straight into the mountains to confirm what he said last night. He specifically went to hunt two wild chickens, one of which he gave to the Gu family, and the other he used as food expenses for Gu Yundong to prepare a good meal.

But when he came down from the mountain, he heard the whole village discussing the matter between that girl and the Peng family.

He didn’t hear very clearly, so he hurried back home. When he ran to the next door, he saw Gu Yunshu comforting Dong Shi, who was at a loss as to what to do.

Gu Yunshu had an inexplicable confidence in Gu Yundong. If his older sister said everything would be fine, he believed her, and then obediently stayed with his mother and sister.

It was Dong Shi who stood not far behind when Feng Daneng came looking for Gu Yundong. The cause and effect were clear.

Seeing Shao Qingyuan coming over, she couldn’t help but ask him for his opinion, despite Shao Qingyuan not being acquainted with Gu Yundong.

Shao Qingyuan only knew what had happened when he saw him, and he handed the two chickens to Dong Shi before hurriedly leaving.

Now his mind was spinning rapidly, thinking about how to get back what belonged to Gu Yundong with the least cost and teach Peng Zhongfei a lesson.

He had never thought of trying to make peace and let Gu Yundong endure this matter. Shao Qingyuan wasn’t that kind of person either.

Therefore, he didn’t notice that Huliang had been hiding behind the tree just behind him.

Shao Qingyuan walked faster and even started to run.

But just as he had run a short distance, a carriage came from the opposite direction.

Shao Qingyuan paid it no attention and just passed by it.

However, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing a lazy head.

At the moment Shao Qingyuan appeared, that head suddenly became lively, hurriedly calling out to the coachman in front, “Stop, stop, stop.”

The carriage barely stopped, and the person inside stuck out half of their head to call out, “Hey, hey, wait a moment, do you remember me?”

Shao Qingyuan ignored them, but the person in the carriage instructed the coachman, “Quick, turn around and catch up.”

The carriage made a turn and ran quickly for a few steps, soon paralleling Shao Qingyuan.

Shao Qingyuan frowned and glanced at him, feeling a little familiar. Oh, it was the young master from the Liu family, Liu Wei.

This person had taunted Gu Yundong in front of the Fang family’s gate yesterday, saying that the county magistrate couldn’t possibly know her.

Hmm, he must be out of his mind. No need to pay attention to him.

Shao Qingyuan turned his head back and was about to leave.

But just as he lifted his foot, his eyes suddenly narrowed. His carriage…

Liu Wei’s body leaned out even more. If it weren’t for the servant inside the carriage holding onto him, he would probably have fallen out. “Your name is Shao Qingyuan, right? Do you remember me? I specially came to Yongfu Village to find you.”

Shao Qingyuan suddenly turned around, propped himself up on the shaft of the carriage with his hand, and directly jumped into the carriage.

Liu Wei was stunned for a moment, then smiled, “Right, it’s better to talk in the carriage. I was exhausted just now hanging out like that.”
