Chapter 567: Collecting Servants and Slaves (5)_1
The female beggar clutched her head tightly with her arm, bearing the pain in silence. Beside her, a girl who bore a striking resemblance to her was crying out in distress, begging the owner and his wife of the dim sum shop to spare her.
Although Cai Wei detested the female beggar’s act of theft, she hated men hitting women even more. Therefore, she stepped forward, overcame the crowd, and coldly said, "Let her go!"
The wife of the dim sum shop owner was raving. Seeing Cai Wei suddenly intervene, she discontentedly said, "Where did this courtesan come from? Daring to meddle in my family’s affairs at my doorstep, it’s none of your business how I deal with this thief!"
Cai Wei let out a cold laugh, stepped forward again, grabbed the wrist of the dim sum shop owner, and twisted it hard.
"Crack——"
After a crisp sound of bone crunching, the dim sum shop owner screamed like a pig being slaughtered, clutching his wounded hand and breaking out in sweat from the pain.
Upon seeing her husband being hit, the owner’s wife cried out immediately, "Everybody, come and see! A spy from the Meng tribe is rampaging on our Great Jin’s turf. Oh my god, it’s horrific! Quickly go and report this. A Meng tribe spy is committing murder!"
The owner’s wife slapped her thigh and cried out desperately, but none of the onlookers left. Everyone was excitedly watching the stunning woman who had appeared out of nowhere, their eyes filled with admiration.
Cai Wei took another step closer, stared coldly at the tantrum-throwing wife, and asked chillingly, "Who did you say is the spy from the Meng tribe?"
The wife, startled by Cai Wei’s cold glare and chilling tone, stepped back slightly. Although afraid, she stubbornly said, "You, if you’re not a spy from the Meng tribe, why would you help these two Meng women? His Highness King Qin of our Great Jin is leading an army of 100,000 to wage war against the Mongols, swearing to eradicate every single one of them. If you are a Jin citizen, how could you not know this?"
"Swish——"
