A cry for mercy—"Lady hero, spare me!"—left Xiaosuisui dumbstruck. She stopped abruptly as she heard Li Yu exclaim, "I will handle this!" Then, he leaped away with startling speed, landing right on a pile of his own house guards! Everyone watched, dumbfounded. How could this man be so utterly cowardly, yet still have the audacity to oppress the innocent and bully people with his connections? Xiaosuisui, still mystified, asked, "Is... is there something wrong with his head?" Zhao Fei approached, first checking whether his benefactor had been injured. Only then did he answer, "He’s spineless!" What did he mean by spineless? Xiaosuisui was still puzzled. "Spineless enough to jump?" Zhao Fei was speechless. What could he say? His benefactor was a child and knew nothing. "Benefactor! We have the book now. Let me take you home! Where do you live?" ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝕟𝕖𝕥 Zhao Fei hurriedly looked in all the pharmacy’s drawers once everyone had been driven out. Finally, he found the Herbal Compendium on the shopkeeper’s counter. Quickly, he handed it over to Xiaosuisui, saying, "Benefactor, here’s your Herbal Compendium!" Accepting it, Xiaosuisui put the Herbal Compendium directly into her purse without looking. They didn’t notice that there was an extra piece of paper tucked into the Herbal Compendium—a paper that could bring about the Li Family’s downfall in the future! "I live in the Ji Mansion, but I’m not going home now. I’m going to the houseboat!" Xiaosuisui had used her Feifei ability to fly here from the boat. Having recovered her book, she naturally wanted to return to the boat. "Benefactor, are you going to Xilin Lake?" Zhao Fei asked, hearing Xiaosuisui say she was heading to the houseboat. Xiaosuisui nodded. "Yes! My grandmother, my second aunty, my third aunty, and my beautiful sister are all on the houseboat!" "Then let me escort you. I know a shortcut that will get us to the Xilin Lake pier quickly." As a former street kid, Zhao Fei was very familiar with the terrain of the capital. Upon hearing his words, Xiaosuisui opened her arms wide towards him. Zhao Fei was taken aback to see his benefactor, who wore a black veil, looking up at him with arms extended. He was momentarily confused. "Benefactor... what are you..." "Hug!" Xiaosuisui requested in a childish voice. Zhao Fei, who had been pressed to the ground and was now covered in dust and bloodstains, would have scooped up his benefactor without hesitation if he were clean. Zhao Fei looked down at his grimy self and hastily replied, "I can’t hug you, benefactor. I’m filthy!" His benefactor was dressed so elegantly, and the material was top-notch Hangzhou silk. He really didn’t want to soil her clothes. But as his benefactor gazed up at him with her big, twinkling black eyes, he found it impossible to deny her. Before she could say another word, he bent down and lifted her up. Xiaosuisui, clutching Zhao Fei’s collar, leaped onto the roof with a WHOOSH. This spectacle left everyone awestruck. Zhao Fei, suddenly whisked onto the rooftop, was stunned. My legs are trembling... My heart is racing... What if I fall? Will I land headfirst? Or bottom first? While Zhao Fei was still mulling this over, he heard his benefactor’s childish voice by his ear. Instinctively, Zhao Fei pointed. "That way. Go around that corner, and you’ll reach the Xilin Lake pier." "Ah... Benefactor, can we please walk normally instead of flying? It’s not far!" Zhao Fei’s voice, carried on the air, sounded close to tears. "This child is a true gem! But how have I never heard of any family having such a remarkable toddler?" The old man at the pharmacy’s entrance muttered to himself as he watched Xiaosuisui and Zhao Fei disappear into the distance.
