Chapter 708: Chapter 708 Rogue Ruffian Chapter 708: Chapter 708 Rogue Ruffian Having found five or six hooligans and rascals, Fan Wenxuan told those people that as long as they smashed the several carts of fruit wine outside the Chu Residence, he would give them silver.
Fan Wenxuan once again hid in the place where he had concealed himself before, waiting for the show to start, anticipating that Su Yunjin’s entire stock of fruit wine would be shattered. Simultaneously, as he waited for the entertaining spectacle to begin,
he unexpectedly discovered that more than twenty house servants suddenly emerged from Chu Residence.
Each house servant was a young man of tall and strong stature. Fan Wenxuan’s heart skipped a beat–what in the world was happening? How had so many people come out all of a sudden?
The four or five people he had just sought out, how could they possibly stand a chance against so many? Realizing that this was bad, Fan Wenxuan decided to stop those he had hired right now.
To prevent them from smashing things any further.
Yet, when Fan Wenxuan wanted to stop them, he found it was already too late; the few ruffians and hooligans he had found were already holding sticks and had charged forth.
“Brothers, go for it, smash it!” the leader yelled, and Fan Wenxuan, hiding in the shadows, was on the verge of spitting out a mouthful of blood in frustration.
Were these people idiots?
Shouting so loudly while smashing things–as if afraid no one would find out? Fan Wenxuan held his forehead with his hand. These were the people he had paid a hefty price for–
That was half a month’s expenses for Fan Wenxuan.
And now all that money had gone into the pockets of those fools! They were truly a bunch of bunglers, capable of spoiling more than they could accomplish. Fan Wenxuan had promised them an additional tael if they succeeded in the task.
But now, forget about a tael, he didn’t even plan to give them a copper coin. A bunch of idiots–they’ve made such a commotion, could they even smash a fart’s worth of fruit wine?
Lucky if they aren’t caught.
Upon hearing the sudden commotion of people coming to smash the fruit wine, Su Yunjin was taken aback by the unexpected scene, but Gu Yan was the first to react. He had already made preparations for this day since he was a hunter, and his archery skills were spot on.
When he noticed people coming to smash the fruit wine, Gu Yan swiftly took out the bow and arrows he carried on his back, took aim, and with three arrows fired simultaneously, there was a chorus of anguished screams.
Then, all those who came to smash the fruit wine were hit in the legs and fell to the ground in unison. The remaining two, seeing three of their companions struck and fallen,
were so frightened that they immediately stopped in their tracks, daring not to proceed. Gu Yan, still holding his bow and arrow, took aim and drew out two unused arrows.
Having just been scared stiff, those two, upon seeing Gu Yan once again aiming at them, dared no longer to go forth and smash Su Yunjin’s fruit wine.
They smeared oil on their feet and threw down their sticks, preparing to run. Of course, Gu Yan was not about to let these people escape; perhaps it was they who had smashed his wife’s fruit wine last time.
Daring to smash his little wife’s fruit wine, he would not let a single one off easily. With a swift motion, he shot the arrows; one of those fleeing people was hit.
The other, who had ducked around a corner, was not hit but had his clothes torn. However, that alone scared him quite badly.
He even wet himself out of fear,
continuously trembling.
This corner was precisely where Fan Wenxuan was hiding–never mind that the man was so frightened he urinated; Fan Wenxuan himself nearly wet his pants, standing against the wall with a pale face.
Fan Wenxuan was filled with regret.
How could he have forgotten that Gu Yan was a hunter?
His skill in archery was simply too formidable.
The butler, upon seeing people come to smash the fruit wine and after Gu Yan released the arrows, also instructed the house servants behind him to catch the intruder, “Go, don’t let that person escape.”
Daring to smash things at Chu Residence.
They must be tired of living!
