A Girl and Her Best Friends Time Travel to Ancient Times-Chapter 101: The Terrible Flower Thief

Sang Li put on her clothes and went out of the bedroom with Gu Zhi.

When the two arrived in the hall, the others were eating.

Seeing Sang Li come over, Su Mo immediately pulled her over.

"Sister Li, come over here and sit with me!"

Su Mo raised her eyebrows at her and whispered, "Waking up this late, it seems the battle last night was quite intense!"

"..."

"Cough...cough..." Wu Ying beside them coughed twice, caught off guard.

As a martial artist, his hearing was naturally good, and he just happened to hear what Su Mo said.

Sang Li glanced at Wu Ying, then looked back at Su Mo.

She leaned in and teased, "With Wu Ying’s stamina, I’m afraid you won’t be able to get out of bed for two days."

"Who said that? I've trained too, okay?!" Su Mo retorted unhappily.

"Pfft..."

Wu Ying couldn't help but almost spit out the food in his mouth.

His ears turned red and he immediately stood up.

Everyone looked at him puzzledly, "Wu Ying, what's wrong with you?"

"I...I'm full. You guys eat slowly!"

After saying that, Wu Ying immediately left the place full of racy words.

He really didn't expect Su Mo to discuss bedroom affairs with others so frankly.

As he rubbed his forehead, thinking back to Su Mo’s earlier words, his ears involuntarily turned red.

After the meal, everyone discussed going back to Lan City.

"Zhi, do you...want to go back to Lan City?" Sang Li asked.

Gu Zhi moved over and held her hand. "Sister, I already told you, wherever you go, I will follow. Anywhere with you is where I want to be!"

Sang Li smiled at him. "Alright then, let’s go back to Lan City tomorrow."

"Yay! Finally we can go back! To be honest I still feel a little uncomfortable here. Lan City is more suitable for us to live in!" Xiao Han said.

...

Early next morning, the six departed for Lan City.

The tribal chief personally saw them off.

As the carriage gradually went further away, they unexpectedly saw Cai Na appear.

She watched the carriage going further and further, her eyes brimming red.

Regarding Elder Cai’s attempted rebellion, Cai Na really had no idea. After finding out the ins and outs of the matter later, she was utterly devastated.

In fact, Elder Cai had always used her as a pawn in his rebellion plans. Other than her, all of Cai family members had been arrested.

She was now no better than a stray dog with no home. Where was the demeanor of a holy maiden left?

And Gu Zhi would rather give up his position as young tribal leader than marry her! How awful could she be?

"Na Na..." Gu Fan's voice rang out behind her.

Cai Na wiped her tears. Over the past few days, Gu Fan had been staying by her side, and had confessed his feelings to her.

Although they had been very close ever since they were young, even closer than she was with Gu Zhi, she had always seen Gu Fan as a brother and never thought of him that way.

Because since she was little, she saw herself as the wife of the young tribal leader, so how could she have this kind of thoughts about Gu Fan?

"Brother Gu Fan, I..." Cai Na choked back a sob.

Gu Fan went up and embraced her.

Cai Na was stunned for a moment, but did not push him away.

"I know you need some time, and I will wait for you..." Gu Fan said.

...

By the time they arrived back in Lan City after a few days, it was already dusk. Stopping and going all the way, it was as if they were on vacation, delaying quite some time.

As the carriage passed through the city, the group planned to first go to the Four Beauties Pavilion to take a look. Su Mo couldn't help poking her head out.

"Ah, Lan City is still more intimate!"

Just as Su Mo was looking around, she suddenly caught sight of, not far away, several men beating up a teenager.

The boy was fighting back too, but he was clearly no match for so many of them.

Su Mo frowned, and looked more closely.

"Yu Yifan?" Su Mo was taken aback, and immediately lifted the curtain and called out to Wu Ying, "Wu Ying, stop the carriage! Your apprentice is being bullied!"

"Yuyi..." Wu Ying stopped the carriage.

Su Mo immediately jumped out of the carriage and ran towards them.

Seeing that, Wu Ying followed as well.

The others were quite puzzled, but still all got out of the carriage to follow along.

Yu Yifan had been kicked to the ground by those men, who continued stomping down on him.

"Dare to cause trouble for Tianxiang Building again, don’t blame us if we kill you! Ptooey!"

"Your sister has already sold herself to Tianxiang Building. It's none of your business whether she lives or dies!"

Suddenly, a whip lashed out with a swoosh, directly coiling around that man's foot.

Then came a wretched scream, as the man was thrown to the ground.

The rest looked over to see Su Mo standing not far away, holding a whip with somewhat cold eyes.

"F*ck, who the hell are you?!"

As a group of men rushed towards her, before they could even get close to Su Mo, they were kicked to the ground by Wu Ying who flew over.

Only then did Yu Yifan raise his head and see Su Mo and Wu Ying.

He crawled up happily. "Master, Mistress, you're back!"

The group of men climbed up as well, realizing Su Mo and Wu Ying were not to be trifled with. So they left with a threatening remark, "Just you wait!"

After saying that, the group immediately left.

Su Mo and Wu Ying walked over to see Yu Yifan's bruised face and his dirty clothes.

"What happened? Who were they? Why were they beating you?" Su Mo asked.

Yu Yifan’s lips quivered as he threw himself into Wu Ying's arms. "Master, you must uphold justice for me!"

Wu Ying: "..."

Wu Ying shook him off in disgust. "What exactly is going on?"

At this time, Sang Li and the rest also walked over, surprised to see Yu Yifan injured.

"What's the matter?"

Yu Yifan's eyes turned slightly red. "My sister...went missing from Tianxiang Building...I went to argue with Tianxiang Building’s people, hoping they would send more people to look for my sister, but they were unreasonable and actually beat me up!"

"When did your sister go missing?" Sang Li asked.

"It was just the day before yesterday! She used to come out to see me regularly, but this time she didn't show up. So I went to Tianxiang Building to look for her, and coincidentally heard that she had been missing for two days..."

Back when Sang Li and the others were here, they had seen Yu Yifan’s sister once.

His sister was named Yu Jiaojiao. She had come to Qinglin Yard to look for Yu Yifan before, and was very grateful when she learned that Sang Li and the others had taken Yu Yifan in.

Yu Jiaojiao looked glamorously gentle and elegant, befitting the top courtesan of Tianxiang Building. She also spoke softly.

Although they had only met once, their impression of Yu Jiaojiao was quite good.

"Sister Li, I beg you to help me find my sister!" Yu Yifan said anxiously.

"You don't know, during the time you were away, a nasty flower thief appeared in Lan City, specializing in kidnapping beautiful girls from good families! Many women have already suffered misfortune because of him!

Not only did he defile those women, he even killed them afterwards! The authorities still haven't caught that flower thief! I'm very worried that my sister has fallen into his hands, so I wanted Tianxiang Building to send more people to look for her!"

Sang Li frowned. "Let's go back to the Four Beauties Pavilion first, then you can slowly tell us the whole story."

So the group first returned to Four Beauties Pavilion, and Yu Yifan told them about what had recently happened in Lan City.

After thinking about it, Sang Li said, "Yu Yifan, please forgive my blunt question, but the women kidnapped and killed by this flower thief you mentioned were all unmarried girls from good families. But your sister, she..."

"I know what you mean, Sister Li. This was also what I found suspicious. I'm just worried my sister has fallen into his hands. She doesn't fit his target group anyway, which is why I wanted to find her as soon as possible!"

Wu Ying, who was standing on the side, suddenly asked, "This flower thief you mentioned, isn't his name Hua Wuyou?"

Yu Yifan looked at Wu Ying in surprise. "Master, how did you know? There are indeed rumors going around that his name is Hua Wuyou!"

Wu Ying said slowly, "This man was originally from Chu City where he also gave the authorities a headache. It is said his lightness skill is unmatched and he is skilled in hypnosis, and likes kidnapping beautiful women. I didn't expect him to have come to Lan City..."

Su Mo leaned over. "Wu Ying, isn't the treasure map you mentioned before in this man's possession?"

Wu Ying nodded, a dangerous glint flashing in his eyes. "Since he has come to Lan City...that works out just fine..."
