Chapter Eighteen: What Business Does the Young Master Have?

  "Oh no! Someone has fallen into the water, hurry up and rescue them!"

  Just as she was about to lift her foot and slip away, a loud shout appeared in front of her. Shen Huan didn't have the mind to pay attention to the master and servant behind her at this moment. She got up and walked quickly towards the bustling crowd.

  Before long, someone fished out the poor devil who had fallen into the river. Shen Huan, being close by, naturally stood at the center of the onlookers. When the rescuer finally laid the person on the ground, she saw that it was a woman...

  "Miss? Wake up...... Miss?"

  The man gently patted the little girl's cheek a few times, but she didn't wake up. He couldn't help feeling anxious and looked up at the onlookers, his eyes revealing his anxiety.

  Shen Han couldn't help but feel a little moved, and when she looked around at the people nearby, almost everyone's face showed a worried expression. She couldn't help but think that maybe it was the numbness of modern life that had made her numb too. Why did seeing someone else's daughter fall into the water make everyone worry for her, while she herself seemed to feel nothing?

  She felt ashamed of herself for being so calm in such a situation, and although she couldn't worry about the girl, she could still see the meaning in Han's eyes. It was as if a surge of impulse made her turn her head to ask the people around: "Is there a doctor? Is anyone here who knows first aid?"

  Everyone looked at each other, and finally shook their heads. Shen Huan's expected answer was disappointment after holding onto hope. She couldn't help but withdraw her gaze, feeling a bit downcast. However, in the instant she lowered her head, it seemed like a vaguely familiar face flashed before her eyes. When she raised her head to look again, there was nothing. She couldn't help but wonder if she had just seen things.

  As a modern person who had learned swimming in a club, Shen Huan couldn't possibly not know how to handle first aid. It's just that she didn't want to show off her knowledge of modern rescue techniques in front of so many people. But the situation before her eyes made her tense up. At first, she could remain calm because she thought someone would naturally stand up, but now she realized that whether it was ancient or modern times, everyone's thoughts were almost the same.

  Not to mention whether the onlookers really know how to do first aid or not, if they save him, it's no big deal, but if they can't... they might accidentally get into trouble. From everyone's expressions, you can tell that nobody wants to get involved in this mess.

  She didn't have time to think too much, a life is more important than anything!

  Shen Han stepped out herself, waving her hand at the still anxious husband, indicating that he should give way first. Only when Shen Han squatted down did she realize that the surrounding area seemed to be surrounded by everyone, and not even a bit of fresh air could flow in. She slightly furrowed her brow, trying to make her tone as gentle as possible: "Could you please trouble everyone to take a step back? Don't crowd around like this, or she'll be unable to breathe."

  I thought that after saying this, the scene would develop as I imagined, but reality is always reality. Not only did no one retreat to leave space, but curiosity drove them closer, leaving only the woman lying on the ground and the little space where I was crouching at my feet.

  It's really impossible to pretend to be calm, she took a deep breath and raised her head to shout at the crowd: "Can't you disperse? How can we rescue people if you block the way?"

  The sudden loud roar of the River East Lion shocked everyone, but still no one showed any signs of moving their feet until that familiar voice came: "Whoever takes five steps back will get ten copper coins each!"

  Shen Huan raised his head but didn't see who the other person was, yet he understood that the familiarity brought by the voice wasn't fake, because he was the master who initially said something about assassinating someone.

  "Isn't anyone moving? It's as if they don't want money?"

  As soon as the words were spoken, there was a sound of copper plates falling to the ground. Although everyone was curious, it's not often that money falls from the sky, so how could they give up the opportunity to pick it up and continue surrounding him? After the crowd dispersed, Shen Huan finally saw the man who had been speaking. Now she could be certain that she had definitely seen him somewhere before, because not only was his voice familiar, but he also looked very familiar, only... for a moment, she really couldn't remember where she had seen him before.

  While Mu Siyao also waited for the crowd to disperse before approaching, what she saw was Shen Huan's back as she crouched on the ground. He couldn't help but look at her with some curiosity, wondering how she would rescue the person who had fallen into the water.

  There was no time to observe the person, Shen Huan took advantage of everyone's picking up money, stretched out his hands and pressed them on the little girl's chest, and began to compress. This simple drowning rescue was not a difficult task for her, but unfortunately, this little girl probably had severe choking, and she still hadn't reacted until now. Shen Huan could only lower his head, pinch her nose shut, turn his face sideways, take a deep breath, and then start artificial respiration to breathe air into her...

  Busy helping the little girl, Shen Huan didn't notice the look of surprise and delight on the face of the man who lost his money. He gave a signal to one of his subordinates by the side and whispered something in his ear. The pale-faced young servant then retreated a few steps, slipped out of the crowd, and disappeared from sight.

  Shen Han was still facing real first aid for the first time, after a few mouthfuls of air she pressed on the little girl's chest again, with no response she continued to give her air, back and forth several times before the man finally couldn't help but speak up: "Miss... may I ask what this is..."

  Before the other person could finish speaking, Shen Huan turned her head and glared angrily: "Shut up! We're trying to save someone!"

  As soon as she finished speaking, she quickly withdrew her gaze and continued. Her kind inquiry was met with a loud roar, and Mu Siyao was slightly shocked, but in the next moment, she let it go, because under Shen Huan's efforts, the little girl finally coughed up a mouthful of water, although it also splashed onto Shen Huan's body, she didn't mind at all. Seeing her own efforts finally save her, her heart was extremely satisfied. At this moment, Shen Huan was smiling and looking at the little girl, and also patted her back to help her catch her breath.

  But that copper coin couldn't be snatched for long, and by the time Shen Huan was busy helping the little girl catch her breath, everyone had returned to their positions in twos and threes, no longer as crowded as before, but standing voluntarily behind Mu Siyao.

  This is biting the hand that feeds you...

  Looking at the little girl coughing with tears in her eyes, Shen Huan thought she might still be a bit frightened, so he spoke softly to comfort her: "Okay, okay, it's alright. The water you choked on will come out and then everything will be fine. Hurry back home, take a hot bath, and change into some dry clothes!"

  "Thank you...... thank you sister."

  Actually, Shen Huan was only eighteen or nineteen years old, but her mental age was naturally not limited to this number of years. When she spoke, she couldn't help but make herself seem like an old adult. She helped her stand up without any hesitation and scanned the crowd with a glance, only then did she see that the rich man who had thrown money was still standing there. Suddenly, it flashed in her mind that she seemed to have yelled at him earlier, and she couldn't help but feel a little guilty. When her gaze passed over Mu Siyao, it flashed by quickly, like lightning!

  "Uh... Miss, is your family around here?"

  "Sister calls me Liu Li Bian Ke, I am a person who came out alone."

  "So where...do you live?"

  Shen Han originally wanted to say send her back, immediately thought of himself being unfamiliar with Qingfeng Town, so he'd better ask clearly before finding a scapegoat to send her back!

  Shangfu Street...

  Her eyes, like crystal, showed a hint of embarrassment. Before Shen Huan could ask again, a loud voice came from outside the crowd: "Second sister, second sister, are you here?"

  "I am here."

  Hey? Do we still need to look for a scapegoat? This old three isn't fond of going out for a stroll, so let's just have him send us back home. After all, Shen Zian's name is quite well-known in Qingfeng Town, and from the number of people who greeted him on the way here, it's clear that this owner of a medicine shop has a high risk of getting into trouble.

  "Good timing, kid. This young lady just accidentally fell into the water and her family isn't around. Would you mind running an errand for me and sending her back home?"

  Shen Zian had just squeezed in when Shen Han assigned him a task. Looking at the little girl beside her, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed. Before he could refuse, even before he could think it through, Shen Han's cannon-like voice came again: "What are you waiting for? She's already wet, and while you're at it, take her pulse to see if she's caught a chill. You're the perfect doctor for this, no one else is more suitable."

  "His wife..."

  "I'll accompany my mother back in a while, you send her home first."

  "Your sister is still watching the play over there, she saw that there were a lot of people on this side and was worried about you, so she let me come over to take a look, hurry up and go over!"

  Shen Zian thought it was inappropriate to make up an excuse for not being close to the opposite sex, and when he looked at the little girl's face again, he saw that she indeed had some blush on her cheeks. The doctor's heart suddenly sprouted, and he no longer declined, gave Shen Han a signal, and walked forward to make a please gesture to Liu Li. By the time the person who fell into the water was sent back home by someone, more than half of the onlookers had dispersed. Poor guy who jumped into the water to save Liu Li didn't even have a chance to talk to her, and was directly ignored.

  He casually shook off the wet clothes stuck on his body and blended into the crowd.

  The matter has been settled, and Shen Han is also preparing to leave. She had long felt a piercing gaze on her back that hadn't gone away. She was worried that she might have accidentally overheard someone's conversation earlier, and wondered if the other person knew about it. Hurriedly, she took advantage of the fact that people were still gathered together and slipped away unnoticed.

  "Girl..."

  Just as she lifted her foot and hadn't taken a step, the voice behind her sounded again. Shen Huan, whether in her past life or this one, was always controlled by that voice deep down. At this moment, hearing that slightly husky yet crisp and magnetic voice, she was directly hit! How could she not be bewildered? Moreover, if the other party wanted to find trouble with her, they would definitely not let go of any opportunity. Just now, Zi An had already appeared and mentioned that her mother was in front of her. She had to think for...

  He stiffly put down his foot, turned around with a wooden expression, and forced a smile on his face: "What brings this young master here?"
