Why did you provoke me?

"Li Yiqing, we're just here for a walk. We're not bothering you, are we? Besides, aren't they just a bunch of broken rocks? What's so special about them? We have the same over there. If you'd like, I wouldn't mind if you came over to my place."

Li Yiqing nodded, "Okay. But I didn't invite you to come and play around in my area. Not only did you steal my things, but you also beat up my cousin."

Chu Jiao pointed at Yu Meng, "Didn't you hear what she just said? That was an insult to me."

"Where did I go wrong? You don't have it, that's why you steal from others. And you're the mayor's daughter, if you don't have it, it's because no one cares about you. Don't you think you're pathetic?" Yu Meng explained again, counting on her fingers.

Chu Jiao was furious. "Shut up! You're the one who's unloved and pathetic!"

"No, my older sister spoils me a lot. She even fetches water for me to wash my feet."

"Shut up."

Chu Jiao pointed at Dali, "Your sister insulted me. You have to apologize to me with another piece of stone skin today, or I will not let this go."

"I was terrified! The mayor's daughter is trying to extort money like this. I have to ask Teacher Xia. Who is this mayor's daughter? How can she be so powerful? I was scared to death!"

Yu Meng took out a delicate bell. She placed the bell in her palm, and the bell opened up.

"Xiao Meng'er, you've finally remembered me."

"Teacher Xia, sigh, I'm on a mission right now and I've run into some problems. I'd like to ask for your advice."

Xia Xuan's voice came from the bell. "Go ahead, I'm listening."

"Teacher, you know I'm quite young. After I peeled off a piece of stone, the mayor's daughter robbed me. What should I do?"

"Hey, don't talk nonsense. When did I steal your stone skin? I'm with Teacher Xia right now, how could I possibly go to your place to steal your things?" A voice came from Yu Meng's bell. It was clear and melodious, but you could still hear a hint of anger in her tone.

Yu Meng was surprised. "No, I'm not making this up. There's a woman standing in front of me. She said she's the mayor's daughter, but she really did steal my things."

"Chu Jiao, if you continue to ruin my reputation outside, I'll never forgive you."

Yu Meng held up the bell in front of Chu Jiao, "Aren't you going to try to deny it in front of the person in question?"

Li Yiqing stared blankly at the scene before him.

Yu Meng is truly amazing. She only met Xia Xuan once, and she already has her communication bell.

"Sis, don't listen to her nonsense, I didn't."

"I don't care if you have it or not, return what you stole. Apologize to the person you stole." The real heiress had a very strong presence.

Yu Meng shook the bell in her hand. "The man who was with him hit my brother-in-law. Can I hit him back? And what about the real mayor's daughter?"

"Xiao Meng, her name is Chu Qinghe."

"Clear as a stream, radiant and pristine; the wind rustling through the fields, teeming with life. What a poetic and picturesque name! The person who named you must love you very much." Yu Meng gave a small compliment.

"Xiao Meng, when you come to the city, shall we get together?"

"Great! I'm really looking forward to meeting you all."

"If you can beat him, then go ahead and beat him." Chu Qinghe didn't seem as demure as Yu Meng had imagined.

"Of course I can. I have a lot of people on my side." Yu Meng's smug voice made the two people on the other end of the communication bell laugh.

"I can't talk to you anymore, I have important business to attend to now. I'll contact you again when I get to the city." Yu Meng then turned off her communication bell and put it away.

"Brother-in-law, we now have the imperial edict, should we fight back?"

"Of course!" Jiang Mingfeng jumped high and rushed towards the man holding the water glass.

The man holding the clothes quickly stepped aside, indicating that he would not get involved.

Li Yiqing stood there with a smile on his lips, "Chu Jiao, the beating he got today is your fault."

The man with the water glass had obviously overheard Yu Meng and Chu Qinghe's conversation. He wisely refrained from retaliating and simply used his arm to block Jiang Mingfeng's fist.

Seeing this, Jiang Mingfeng's eyes darted around, and after throwing a few punches, he stopped.

Just then, Li Yiqing's voice came through.

"What does this have to do with me? Stop trying to pin this on me," Chu Jiao shouted.

Yu Meng stretched out her small hand. "Where are the things? Give me back my older sister."

Chu Jiao angrily threw a box on the ground. "You wait, I'll come back for you."

Yu Meng shook her head. "I don't want to see you again, you spoiled brat."

The two men followed Chu Jiao. Chu Jiao kicked at the pebbles along the way, muttering curses under her breath. Suddenly, she tripped and fell to the ground. A scream startled Li Yiqing and the others who were heading back to their tents.

Chu Jiao cried out, clutching her leg, "It hurts so much! My leg is broken! You two useless idiots, why didn't you help me up?"

The two men exchanged a glance. "We're men. How could we help a young girl like you? It wouldn't be good for your reputation."

Chu Jiao lay on the ground crying and screaming. Li Yiqing had no choice but to come over and say, "If you fell, just get up. Why are you crying?"

"Li Yiqing, you bastard, my leg is broken, how am I supposed to get up?" Even at this point, Chu Jiao didn't say a single kind word.

"I really can't stand up, I can't walk." Li Yiqing saw that she didn't seem to be faking it, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.

He glanced at the man holding the clothes. "Go find your captain. We don't have a doctor here, and we don't dare touch her for fear of causing further harm."

Jiang Mingfeng didn't come over; he holds grudges. Yu Meng pulled Dali into the tent.

"Little sister, I told you you're the most amazing one in our family." Dali hugged Yu Meng.

"Yes, my little sister is amazing. That guy didn't fight back, and I was too embarrassed to hit him anymore." Jiang Mingfeng seemed a little regretful.

Yu Meng found it a bit boring. With this level of fighting ability, how dare he jump in front of her?

"Brother-in-law, it seems your cousin knows that Chu Jiao."

"That Chu Jiao is the daughter of the mayor's younger brother. Her father has business dealings with the Li family," Jiang Mingfeng said.

"Big sister, when we get back to the city, are you really going to take those three people as your apprentices?" Yu Meng asked.

"Others may not know, but little sister, you know my own worth. How could someone like me dare to mislead young people?" Dali was clearly very happy, humming an unknown tune as she neatly packed her things.

"Big sister, don't underestimate yourself. You need to show the same spirit you had back in town."

Jiang Mingfeng nodded repeatedly beside him. "I love seeing you like that, like you were glowing."

"When your cousin comes back, talk to him about it. The Jiang family and the Li family are very close. If you're willing to share this skill, it will surely benefit your brother-in-law."

"What about the other three?" Dali asked.

"Being sent by the family to do a mission with him already says something. Let him decide the list later. You just focus on giving lectures."
