The Hunter's Lucky Little Lady

Chapter 47



47 Li Shun’s Disappearance

Seeing the money in their hands, the two elders seemed to see hope. A happy smile appeared on their wrinkled faces. contemporary romance

“Thank you!” The old lady thanked him again. She picked up the bamboo basket and went home with the old man.

Luo Cheng watched the old couple leave and was about to turn around to help Li Xiaoran tidy up the tables and chairs.

In an instant, Luo Cheng noticed a man with a strange expression. He kept looking in the direction where the old man and his wife had left in.

Luo Cheng sneered and immediately understood something.

He had done so out of kindness, but had probably brought trouble to the old couple.

With that in mind, Luo Cheng put his hand on the table and began tapping.

The secret guard immediately perked up when he saw Luo Cheng tapping his fingers. He understood what Luo Cheng meant and chased after the old couple.

When everything was packed, Yuan Cheng and Mao Dao also noticed the commotion and walked over.

“You aren’t going to set up the stall anymore, Brother Luo?” Mao Dao asked.

“We’re not setting it up anymore today. The noodles are sold out!” Luo Cheng replied succinctly.

“That’s true. There were many customers today. We can go back after selling our steamed buns for a while longer!” Mao Dao nodded and echoed, “Brother Luo, you can leave first! The two of us will help you pack the rest!”

Yuan Cheng nodded and said, “That’s right! Brother Luo took care of us and your wife taught us how to make steamed buns. We’re very grateful, so we want to help with some things. Leave the rest to us!”

Luo Cheng glanced at Yuan Cheng and Mao Dao, thought for a moment, then nodded.

“That’s good! You must remember that the sparks in the stove must be extinguished. You must wait until there are no sparks at all on the stove, then pour water on them and leave!”

Yuan Cheng and Mao Dao nodded and promised that it would be done well.

So Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran left with the other things.

Seeing Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran leave, the people around the stall looked at them enviously.

Of course, there were also people who were secretly happy, such as Zhao Chunhua.

Zhao Chunhua felt happy that the Li family sisters had left!

After they left, she would be the only stall selling noodle soup in this place. At that time, all the noodle soup she made would definitely be sold out.

Li Xiaoran naturally didn’t know what Zhao Chunhua was thinking. At this moment, she was also happy.

The knife-cut noodles were selling better and better these days. She would be able to save some money and open a small shop by the official road.

At that time, they wouldn’t have to be exposed to the wind and rain, nor would they have to be watched all the time.

To be honest, since Li Xiaoran was doing business openly, she wasn’t afraid of others watching.

It was just that when she did things, she always felt that there were countless eyes staring at her from behind. This felt creepy.

Luo Cheng was also thinking about this matter.

Honestly, he wasn’t willing to let anyone keep staring at them.

Anyway, he had money on hand and it wasn’t difficult to build a shop. He would talk to Li Xiaoran later and persuade her to let him pay to construct a shop.

Otherwise, by the time her noodle stall earned enough money to construct a shop, it would probably be winter already.

Luo Cheng frowned at the thought of shivering in the cold.

Soon, the group arrived at the house.

At this moment, Li Xiaoran only saw her mother, so she asked, “Mom? Where did Dad go?”

“Didn’t you want to make that big umbrella that can shelter you from the wind and rain? Your father went to the bamboo forest to cut bamboo!” Zhao Xiu placed the chopped wild vegetables in the wooden bucket and planned to bring them to the little chicks.

“How long has my father been gone?” Li Xiaoran asked casually.

As soon as she said this, Zhao Xiu stopped in her tracks and looked puzzled.

“Your father has been out for almost four hours! He should have been back long ago!”

For some reason, when Li Xiaoran heard her mother’s words, she suddenly had a bad feeling.

Just as Li Xiaoran was panicking, Luo Cheng’s cold voice sounded.

“Don’t worry. I’ll take Blackie out and take a look. I’ll find Father-in-law and bring him back!”

With that, Luo Cheng whistled, and soon, Blackie ran out.

“Wait at home. Remember, don’t leave this house. Don’t panic if anything happens. Big Yellow will protect you!”

With that, Luo Cheng gave Blackie an order, and the man and dog ran out.

After Li Xiaoran and Li Xiaoqing placed the items in the stall, they also looked anxious.

“It must be Grandpa’s people. They might have brought Father back to the Li family’s house!”

Li Xiaoran also had this guess, but she couldn’t run out to take a look now, so she could only feel anxious.

“No, your father wouldn’t follow your grandfather and the others back to the Li family’s house!” Zhao Xiu said with certainty.

Li Xiaoran and Li Xiaoqing looked at their mother, not understanding why she was so sure.

“Ever since we arrived at the Luo family, our lives have been stable and comfortable. You sisters set up a stall to sell noodles to earn money, and we have a son-in-law to protect us. We’re very at ease. Today’s good days are something we can’t take for granted. Your father definitely won’t be foolish.”

“Besides, when we all came over, your father had already given up on the people on your grandfather’s side. The family has already split up, and the dowry has also been arranged. Your father has always been saying that he’s already a member of his son-in-law’s family. The Li family has nothing to do with him anymore!” Zhao Xiu told her what she knew.

“Maybe Grandpa and the others thought of a way to trick Father back!” Li Xiaoqing felt that this was done by the Li family, so she said this.

Li Xiaoran felt that guessing wasn’t a solution, so she kept thinking about what to do.

Li Shun, who was being worried about, was lying unconscious in a dark cellar.

...

When Luo Cheng and Blackie reached the bamboo forest, they only found some chopped bamboo and a hatchet that had been thrown to the ground. Other than that, there was no trace of anything.

Luo Cheng frowned and continued to look around for something.

Sure enough, in a very hidden bush not far away, Luo Cheng found the unconscious secret guard.

Luo Cheng took out a porcelain bottle and waved it in front of the secret guard’s nose.

Soon, the secret guard woke up.

“I have failed in my duty. Young Master, please punish me!” The secret guard stood up and was about to receive his punishment.

“Tell me what happened.”

“Young Master, Master Li was cutting bamboo when an old woman suddenly came to ask for directions. Just as I felt that something was wrong, I suddenly Blackieed out and fainted.”
