Chapter 97 - 60 Absolute Assassination_2
These legends should be taken with a grain of salt, for they are not to be believed. However, it is true that Baizi can strengthen the body. Ran Yan was not particularly interested in the exotic fruits but could not miss out on the old remedies, so she ended up buying a pound of the fruit.
Ran Yunsheng was paying when suddenly the crowd surged forward, causing Ran Yan to lose her balance.
"Hurry up, the first beauty Qi Liuniang is coming out!" someone shouted from the crowd.
The crowd, already packed tight, grew even more ferocious. Ran Yan was pushed several steps forward, muttering under her breath, "It’s just a woman, what’s there to see!"
Ran Yan looked up to see that she was getting farther from Ran Yunsheng and quickly pushed her way back toward him. In this era, there weren’t convenient ways to contact each other. If they got separated, it would be very difficult to find each other again in such a crowded night market.
After much effort, she managed to get to Ran Yunsheng’s side. Since he was wearing a robe with narrow sleeves and no sleeve ends, Ran Yan had no choice but to grab his hand.
The force of the crowd was terrifying; Ran Yan felt like a small boat adrift in giant waves. Had she not been holding onto Ran Yunsheng’s hand, she might have been swallowed up.
Ran Yunsheng seemed to see that she was struggling greatly and abruptly pulled her to his side, turning to shield her from the crowd. His strength was astonishing, and Ran Yan’s hand ached from his grip.
