Chapter 884 ·Running

Zeng Shaoquan was waiting for Yao Peiyuan to take action.

While instructing his subordinates to publicize the cruelty of the Sichuan Army, he made arrangements while waiting for Yao Peiyuan's eldest son to fall into the trap he had already arranged step by step. As for the Guangdong Army led by Zeng Mingwei, it was just used to constrain Yao Peiyuan's eldest son and his group of people on the surface. How could Zeng Shaoquan put himself in a dangerous situation? In secret, he had already made second-hand preparations, and was resting at home and was waiting to celebrate.

Bai Rongxuan and Shang Junzhuo walked back all the way, and the streets were full of pedestrians who were scattered and fled in scattered places. There were even some idle gangsters taking the opportunity to get miscellaneous shops, and they were in panic everywhere. Shang Junzhuo frowned and said, "If this continues, before the Sichuan army has entered, the city of Nanjing will be in chaos first."

Bai Rongxuan looked around and said uneasyly, "Are we going to follow them outside the city? But is there a place to stay there? In my opinion, it is better to stay in the city, at least have a place to live. If you rush out like this, you will probably cause more riots."

Shang Junzhuo hesitated and said, "But what if the Sichuan Army really breaks through the city gate?"

Bai Rongxuan said, "We keep our doors closed, there should be no problem, right? Do they still have to burn, kill, loot? No matter who is in power, the people are the most important, and they don't even want their reputation?"

Shang Junzhuo said, "Who knows that the lives of ordinary people are just grass in the eyes of these officials. Who can care about your life and death in critical moments? But what you said makes sense. Follow the wind like a headless fly like this. If you eat, live without food, stay or stay, you will starve to death even if you are not killed. Let's save more rice and flour at home, at least you can deal with food and clothing."

"We?" Bai Rongxuan was a little surprised.

Shang Junzhuo said, "After this matter, do you still have to stay in an inn? Even if you are willing to live, people are afraid that they will not dare to accept it. You should pack up your things and go home with me. It just so happens that you can be a companion with me, so that I can avoid being scared by myself."

How could she be afraid with her personality?

It's just a word to comfort Bai Rongxuan.

Bai Rongxuan could hear it naturally and exchanged glances with Wu Jie. Wu Jie nodded at her quickly.

Bai Rongxuan said, "The matter is urgent, I won't be polite to you, so I have to disturb Miss Shang with shamelessness."

"What are you talking about disturbing me?" Shang Junzhuo said, "It's better if you can come to accompany me than me alone. Besides, you are Xiuzhi's sister. Do I want to watch you wander outside? Xiuzhi will blame me for not taking care of others if he knows."

She had already said something, and she knew she was a little confused and lowered her head with a lonely expression.

Bai Rongxuan felt very uncomfortable when she heard her mention her brother.

Shang Junzhuo cheered up and urged, "Let's not delay any more. You two will go back to the inn to pack up your things. I will find a way to find a rice shop that is open to buy some rice. When all the shops are closed, we will have no food to eat."

Bai Rongxuan nodded and agreed, and the three of them took action separately and agreed to meet at the merchant's gate.

Wu Jie helped Bai Rongxuan walk towards the inn.

There were more and more pedestrians on the road, and there were also people pushing a wheelbarrow to run out quickly. Everyone was crowded with people, and for a moment, the shouts of adults and the crying of children were intertwined. The scene was so chaotic that it was very scary.

Wu Jie walked outside, carefully protecting Bai Rongxuan's safety, and kept reminding him, "Miss Xuan, don't be anxious, let's go slowly, be careful not to be bumped into them rashly."

Bai Rongxuan was also a little confused when she saw the posture in front of her. Although she had seen many thrilling scenes in her previous life, it was the first time that the whole city had escaped. Bai Rongxuan widened her eyes and looked over the crowd. She sighed softly and said worriedly, "All ordinary people who are struggling to survive. Have you ever seen such a scene? In the face of major disasters, the only thing she can think of is running away."

She decided to take a small path with Wu Jie so that she would not be dispersed by the abortion.

The two passed through several alleys and came to the main road again. Compared to the previous crowding, the place seemed much more empty and quiet. There were no people on the road, and the pawnshops along the street were all closed. Looking at the extremely desolate, it was not like Nanjing City in the daytime?

Bai Rongxuan and Wu Jie said, "Let's go quickly. If the inn is closed, we can't get in."

Wu Jie said, "You don't have to worry too much. The luggage left there is nothing valuable, it's just a few old clothes. I have hidden the money on me. As long as I am there, nothing will happen."

Bai Rongxuan had been struggling for a whole morning, and her clothes had been blown through sweat. Now every step she took seemed to be stepping on cotton, which made her feel extremely uncomfortable. But the situation in front of her couldn't help but feel relieved, so she could only grit her teeth and persevere. The two of them walked along the street for a while, and a black car drove past them.

Bai Rongxuan took a look in the voice, and originally just scanned it casually, but unexpectedly she saw a familiar face in the car.

It's actually the management of the boat!

How could he come to Nanjing? Could it be that he came to see his uncle Zeng Shaoquan?

The car was not fast, but Guan Bozhou's face soon disappeared in front of Bai Rongxuan.

Bai Rongxuan stopped suddenly and stared at the car that was leaving in a daze.

Wu Jie asked in surprise, "Miss Xuan, what's wrong with you?"

Bai Rongxuan shook her head, "No... nothing..."

Control the boat!

A bold idea suddenly emerged in Bai Rongxuan's mind. If his brother's affairs were asked to go to him, would it be easier?

It’s just that he had a two-faced relationship with him in his previous life, and he didn’t even say anything. He didn’t even know who he was, so how could he help?

Bai Rongxuan was a little embarrassed.

Seeing that the car had disappeared without a trace, Bai Rongxuan secretly blamed herself for being too useless. She should have rushed to the front of the car immediately. Based on her understanding of Guan Bozhou, she was a gentle and extremely gentle person. After hearing about her experience, even strangers would be willing to help.

But I was just stunned and missed an opportunity to ask for help.

Bai Rongxuan wanted to punch herself twice.

After two lifetimes of being a human being, why is she still so useless? When things are in front of her, she is still unable to solve them. Everything seems to be back in her previous life. She is still driven by fate. She cannot help but move forward step by step. If she continues like this, will she also have to go back to her previous life's fate?

Bai Rongxuan thought of the New Year's Eve of the year when she passed away.

It seems that it is snowing outside the window...

Wu Jie's voice broke her memory, "Ms. Xuan, let's go back quickly. We will have to get along with Miss Shang later, so don't let her worry about us."

Bai Rongxuan had no time to be sad and agreed softly.

The two rushed back to the inn.

Sure enough, the door of the inn was closed. Wu Jie stepped forward and patted the door. The voice of the guy deliberately lowered him, "Who?"

Wu Jie explained his identity.

The guy opened a small crack in the door and pushed out their luggage, "My two, I'm so sorry. The shop is closed from today. I'm sorry to ask you to find another place to live. If the reception is not good, I'm hoping to take care of it. The shop has no choice. You two have packed your luggage and guaranteed nothing is missing. You two have pointed it in person, so you can avoid any further entanglements afterwards."

Although his attitude was very low and nodded and apologized while talking, Wu Jie was still very dissatisfied with their way of doing things. "Is there anyone who does this kind of thing? If we are not here, you actually pack up our things!"

Bai Rongxuan didn't want to talk too much. She simply flipped through the bag and saw that there was indeed a lot of things, so she said to Wu Jie, "It's not easy, so let's take it more."

The Wu Jiechong shop clerk snorted and helped Bai Rongxuan leave the inn gate.
