My Princess Holds Superpowers

Chapter 344: 344 indecisive Chapter 344: 344 indecisive Lu Biaotou and his group could only watch, mouths shut, as Ye Wenzheng rifled through them for silver.

This silver was originally meant to be given to them by Ye Jiu, for otherwise, Ye Jiu hiring them would have been redundant if he intended to have them make money by selling the goods themselves.

In the end, Ye Jiu did not care for that amount and had intended to leave them some soup to drink.

Unfortunately, Dongzi and the others did not appreciate the gesture; instead, their greed flourished, leading to their current predicament where not only were they still unconscious, but they had also lost their silver for nothing.

Seeing Lu Biaotou and his group still confused, Ye Jiu yawned and said, “Alright, enough drama for one day, and it’s getting late. Everyone should rest up; we’ll continue our journey tomorrow.”

After speaking, Ye Jiu went to sleep in the carriage by himself. Ye Wenzheng also took a hide from the carriage, found a flat spot on the ground, and started sleeping, leaving Lu Biaotou and a few others wide awake for most of the night. Follow current novels on novel[f]ire.net

Early in the morning, accompanied by the chirping of birds, Ye Jiu came out of the carriage.

Lu Biaotou, looking rather unenergetic, approached and asked, “Young Master Dong, dawn has broken. Shall we continue on our way?”

“Let’s get ready and go,” replied Ye Jiu.

Lu Biaotou’s expression became troubled. “Young Master Dong, about Dongzi and the others…”

Having roamed the jianghu for many years, Lu Biaotou’s knife had seen plenty of blood.

If it had been anyone else, they would have been dealt with last night. However, Dongzi and his fellows, though having left the Escort Agency for several years, still kept in touch over the years. Plus, considering their past camaraderie, Lu genuinely couldn’t bring himself to harm his brothers.

Ye Jiu was not so ruthless as to demand their lives.

However, he did not intend to let them off easily, else they might come back seeking trouble, prepared this time, and who knows if another strike would be as successful as this time!

Ye Jiu was not willing to gamble with his and Ye Wenzheng’s safety.

“Put them all on the carriage; when we reach the next town, we’ll hand them over to the government office,” he said. Having lived once in a socialist world, Ye Jiu preferred dealing with matters through official channels.

But Lu Biaotou was still troubled. “Young Master Dong, could you…give Lu some face and let Dongzi and the others go this time? I believe they’ve learned their lesson and won’t dare to repeat their offenses.”

Ye Jiu looked at Lu Biaotou, his expression calm but his heart anything but.
