399 Unkempt And Unidentified

“…”

Xiaoguo watched as he reached for her dress with the same hand that he was using to dig his nose. Unable to take it anymore, she slapped him.

“Slap…”

A crisp sound rang through the clouds.

“My heart aches for you.”

Jiang Danhe rubbed Xiaoguo's right hand that looked flushed, and sighed sympathetically for the umpteenth time.

“I'm fine.”

Xiaoguo retracted her hand helplessly. There were so many people on the streets, but Jiang Danhe didn't seem to feel shy or awkward.

Jiang Danhe wasn't bothered at all. He held her small hand again and placed it on his chest, before massaging it with his big hands.

“Does it still hurt?”

“It doesn't hurt at all.” Xiaoguo looked behind her in frustration. Then, she turned around and said gently to him, “They have turned red from washing. It was not because of the slap. How could it possibly hurt?”

“That won't do either. Look at how red your hands are. It's killing me.”

Jiang Danhe was acting exaggeratedly as if her hand had suffered a lot of damage. It was really a touching scene where his heart was aching for her physical pain.

Xiaoguo took one last look at him and tried to pull her hand out, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get it out. In the end, she gave up. Whatever. If he wishes to hold it, just go ahead.

The two of them walked forward with the scruffy man following behind them. He was just three meters away from them.

Xiaoguo stopped walking and gave the man an unfriendly look. He subconsciously shook his head and straightened his neck to glare back at her.

“What are you looking at? Does this road belong to you? I can walk wherever I want!”

“…”

Xiaoguo took a deep breath and tried to control her anger. Jiang Danhe immediately patted her back and pulled her forward.

Seeing this, the scruffy man quickly followed them and maintained a distance of three meters behind them. If they stopped, he also stopped. If they started moving, he did the same.

Whenever Xiaoguo stopped to glare at him, he would immediately say, “This road doesn't belong to you. I can walk wherever I want!”

Hearing this, Xiaoguo really couldn't refute his words.

Just like that, the three of them successfully attracted the attention of the passers-by with their strange behavior.

Thanks to that, the passers-by maintained a good distance from them . After all, there was an unknown black object following behind them. Anyone would be afraid to get close.

Having been followed by the man along one full street, Xiaoguo couldn't take it anymore and pulled Jiang Danhe aside.

“You! Go! First!”

She wasn't going to fall for his tricks!

The scruffy man was in no hurry. He took a step forward with a smile and took half a step back.

“I simply love it here!”

Xiaoguo's right hand was getting restless in Jiang Danhe's grip again.

The scruffy-looking man seemed to have noticed her small actions. He raised his swollen and smudged left cheek provocatively and said frivolously, “Go on and hit me!”

Xiaoguo couldn't help but take two steps back from the man.

His messy hair was like an incubation nest for flies. As he approached, one or two flies flew out from his hair.

Xiaoguo almost fainted from the stench coming from his body. Fortunately, Jiang Danhe covered her nose in time to block out some of the stench.

“Hehe, are you still going to slap me? If not, I'll carry on admiring the surroundings…”

Xiaoguo looked at him in disdain. She was definitely not going to hit him again.

She had washed her hands more than twenty times after that slap.

Who would have thought that so much unidentified stuff could exist on a person's face? Even until now, she could still feel the grimy feeling on her hands.

The degree of stickiness could be seen from the other party's face—Xiaoguo's fingers was still imprinted on it.

Fortunately, there was no gooey or slimy stuff. If there were, Xiaoguo believed that she would have discarded her hand.

Xiaoguo was so angry that she laughed. She nodded calmly and said, “Do whatever you want.”

“Let's go.”

Jiang Danhe pulled Xiaoguo along and walked forward quickly. When the scruffy man saw them leave, he stopped humming and quickly put on his shoes to follow them. He was afraid that the two of them would leave him behind.

Even if he were to continue following them, he could not be faster than the two youngsters.

After a while, with the help of Jiang Danhe's evasive maneuvers, they managed to shake off the man.

The sloppy man stood at the intersection and reached out to scratch his messy hair. He looked around suspiciously, but there was no sign of the pair.

But he didn't seem anxious. Revealing his big teeth, he started laughing.

Then, he turned around and walked towards a certain direction.

Xiaoguo was feeling a little dizzy from Jiang Danhe's tugging. But seeing that they had gotten rid of that person, she couldn't help but feel happy.

“I wonder what he was trying to do.”

The two of them still had unfinished business. After shaking off the man, they went to the two-story building to take a look.

Along the way, Xiaoguo kept thinking about it, but she couldn't figure out what the man wanted from them.

“Could it be that he was after your money?!”

Xiaoguo suddenly thought of such a possibility. After all, when Jiang Danhe was making payment, he had taken out a rather big and heavy-looking money bag.

It was possible that they were targeted for their money.

“It didn't seem like it.” Jiang Danhe thought for a moment and shook his head.

If the guy had his eye on the money, then he wouldn't have to shake the man off with Xiaoguo by his side. In any case, he felt that something was amiss.

Xiaoguo was not someone who would get stuck in the details. She quickly sighed and waved her hand. “In any case, we've shaken him off. Forget it. Let's hurry up and get to that place.”

Jiang Danhe retracted his thoughts and nodded with a smile. The two of them quickened their pace and headed for the two-story building.

The building was located at a small intersection on Yongle Street. Two blocks ahead was the noodle shop. Not far away was the residence where Xiaoguo had set up her stall to sell potato noodles.

Therefore, this two-story building located on the street was also part of the residential area.

Based on Jiang Danhe's introduction, the residences of various lords and vassals were located in the near distance ahead of the building. If she opens her shop here, it would definitely enjoy good business.

Those rich people always liked new and novel stuff.

Yonghai County was a low-key place. There were many outstanding and rich people in the county, but all of them kept a low profile.

If there were any new products in the market, they would not just sit back and watch. Whether the product was delicious or awful-tasting, they would buy some back to try.

Moreover, Shao Zhan used to live in the vicinity. As one could imagine, there were many more high-ranking officials and nobles living in this area.

Xiaoguo believed Jiang Danhe's words without a doubt. She believed everything that he said.

Therefore, her desire for this two-storey building had become even stronger, and she was dying to get her hands on it.

Earlier on in the morning, the two of them only walked around the vicinity and were only looking out for empty shops.

At first, Xiaoguo and Jiang Danhe really did not notice this place. It was only when a gust of wind blew past and caused the door to creak that it caught their attention.

They had no idea who it belonged to, but the door wasn't closed. It was wide open and the interior was extremely messy.

When she took a closer look, she realized that there was a tattered piece of paper posted at the door. On it were two simple words: For Sale.

There was no other information on it.

What was even stranger was that sale notices were usually written on red paper. Doing that creates a festive and positive impression on the viewer. But the owners of this house did things very differently— they used white paper for their sale notice. The words “for sale” were written like a scribble. If one did not take a closer look, they would not have noticed the words.

As the door was unlocked, Xiaoguo and Jiang Danhe thought that the owner might be inside, so they went forward and knocked on the door.

What greeted them was a cloud of dust. After dodging the dust, they were startled by a wild cat running out of the house.

After calming down, the two of them looked at each other and walked in. They tried calling out to the owners as they entered.

However, after searching everywhere, they could not find anyone in the house. The two of them didn't think that it was wise to stay any longer. Since they could not find the owner, they hurriedly walked out.

Later on, they did check out a few other shops, but none of them were as impressive as the two-story building that caught Xiaoguo's eyes.
