Chapter 220 - 220: On The Importance of Martial Arts
Seeing the affirmation on Yang Ye’s face, Bai Zhi felt as though a part of her heart had been stabbed, causing a raging fire to kindle, “How dare such a village girl look down upon me, so what if I play tricks on her?”
She snorted heavily, her face filled with anger and contempt, “I had already planned to deal with her and I’ll show you now!”
As soon as she said this, she undid the white belt around her waist and used it like a whip, lashing towards Qiao Xiaomai.
Qiao Xiaomai, never having seen such a spectacle, muttered a curse in her heart and tried to dodge.
But she couldn’t compare to Bai Zhi’s speed.
After all, she was just physically strong, didn’t know martial arts, and at a disadvantage against Bai Zhi who was specifically trained.
Seeing the white belt about to hit her, a figure flashed before her eyes; Yang Ye had already caught the belt in his hand. He looked as lazy as a cat and as agile as one too.
Seeing this, Qiao Xiaomai suddenly remembered what shopkeeper Zhou had said, with Yang Ye there, her safety was at least guaranteed.
Did that count as a guarantee?
As she was thinking of this, Bai Zhi lifted her left hand and launched a palm attack, aiming directly at her.
“That’s enough.” Yang Ye’s eyebrows furrowed, flicked his hand, not only did he take away the belt, but he also repelled the palm wind with it.
Disarmed, Bai Zhi stomped her foot in annoyance and hurled herself at Yang Ye.
The private room was quite big, and the two of them started to fight there.
Qiao Xiaomai watched with her mouth open in shock, hastily dodging to a corner as they moved.
After evading a few times, she moved towards the window.
The best room in the Zuixian Building naturally had windows that faced the street, which offered a wide view.
However, just as she was getting settled, before she had the chance to look at the two people fighting again, she felt a big force coming at her, like a gust of wind, trying to fling her out.
She got startled and subconsciously grabbed the window frame.
The palm wind behind her was powerful, and she clung to the window frame just as hard.
As a result, the piece of wood that held the window broke.
Qiao Xiaomai, caught off guard with a piece of the window frame still in her hand, fell down like a kite with a broken string.
Damn it!!
She screamed, not caring anymore about cursing the one who caused her fall, there was only one thought in her mind.
Falling from the second floor, given her ordinary physique, she wasn’t going to break a bone like Qiao Changshun, was she?
Oh no!
Just as she was lost in random thoughts, she heard the rustling of clothes and then amidst the surprised exclamation of pedestrians, she fell into a familiar embrace.
The owner of the embrace was Tong Sanlang.
Tong Sanlang and Tong Tiehu were just coming out of the academy, planning to buy some things and check their vinegar shop on the way. As they were passing by the Zuixian Building, someone suddenly fell from the second floor.
The figure and the clothes of the person falling were too familiar. He jumped off the ox-cart without thinking, using his fast speed to catch the person.
The moment she was in his arms, a faint elegant scent reached his nose.
The scent he once mistook as of a virgin reminded him of the previous incident.
He pursed his lips, holding the person in his arms as they landed on the ground.
“Miss Qiao, are you alright?”
At the same time, a voice filled with malice and mockery sounded, “Oh, is this your little lover?”
