C9

Coincidentally, this Steamed Bun rolled to Liu Yun's feet. Liu Yun's eyes lit up as he forcefully swallowed his saliva, using his peripheral vision to quickly scan the surroundings.

He saw a five or six-year-old child staring at him with a pair of big eyes. It seemed like it wanted to reach out its hand to pick up the bun, but it was also afraid that Liu Yun wouldn't dare to move forward.

"Damn brat, don't say that your Brother Yun isn't giving you a chance, I'll count to three." When I yelled 3, we both went to pick up the bun at the same time. Liu Yun stretched out his fist and said in a low and fierce voice.

"Yes." The child's voice was choked with sobs. He seemed a bit scared and a bit wronged, but he didn't want to give up on this Steamed Bun.

"Alright, I'll start counting. Three!" Just as he finished speaking, before the child could react, Liu Yun bent down and picked up the meat bun as quick as lightning. Fortunately, there was only a bit of dust on the skin, so he could still eat it after washing himself.

"Ah …!" On the other side, the child did not have the anger he had expected. Instead, he anxiously looked behind Liu Yun and ran to the side of the road while shouting.

At the same time, an ear-splitting horse cry came from behind him. Liu Yun subconsciously turned around. Before he could see clearly, Liu Yun felt his vision go black as a horse's hoof passed in front of him.

"Ah …" A heart-wrenching howl broke the ruckus in the bazaar, then Liu Yun fell to the ground with a thud. An intense pain came from his lower back, as if it was broken.

The horse carriage crashed into someone, and the citizens of the market quickly surrounded them. It was everyone's hobby to join in on the fun. However, what they cared about wasn't Liu Yun's life and death, but the owner of the carriage.

This carriage was a little different from ordinary carriages. The wide palanquin was big enough to seat at least three people. The roof of the sedan chair was a large, square golden canopy, and there were even many inscriptions of rare and precious herbs engraved on it. The four palanquins were carved out of mahogany, and there was a thin layer of muslin covering the area, making it difficult to see the owner's face.

There were many soldiers lined up around the carriage, and at the back of the carriage was a palanquin. Seeing the carriage stop, a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties walked out of the palanquin.

This person's nose was wide and ears wide, and he was over eight feet tall. He looked just like a big bear. His eyes were bright and threatening, and his temples were bulging. It seemed that he was a martial artist.

The big man strode with large strides to the front of the carriage and squeezed through the crowd. Looking inside, he couldn't help but be shocked. With a face full of suspicion, he asked, "You, you are the son of Liu Guang, my nephew Liu Yun?"

Hearing the loud and clear voice, Liu Yun narrowed his eyes and looked at the large man before him. Gritting his teeth, he stood up. Breathing rapidly, he weakly said, "I am indeed Liu Yun, and my father is also Liu Guang. Who are you?"

"Sigh, no wonder you didn't recognize me. Back then, I was on good terms with your father. I even held you when you were born. " The big man hurriedly helped Liu Yun up, inspecting his injuries as he said gently.

"Oh? Is that so? Maybe I'm too young to remember. "Since we are family, I won't lie to you." As he spoke, Liu Yun patted his butt, he didn't look like he was hurt at all.

For some reason, when he heard Liu Yun mention his family, the big man's eyes flashed. His face was a little stiff. After thinking for a long time, he finally made up his mind.

"I have heard the news of your father's death. I came back from Beijing this time because I have two things to do. The first thing is to pay respects to my dead brother, your father. Actually, I did it for the marriage between you and Xue'er. "

"What?" Marriage? My marriage? " Liu Yun's eyes widened as he asked with a face full of shock.

"Yes, your father and I made an agreement that year. If our children are both men, let them be brothers. For a man and a woman, they shall become husband and wife. " The big guy thought for a while before he spoke in a serious tone.

"Child marriage? "But I haven't grown up yet. You came too suddenly. How about a few more years?" Liu Yun said, somewhat at a loss as to what to do. He was only a fifteen-year-old child, Ding Ding hadn't reached the peak yet, so how could he casually start getting married?

"En..." Nephew, you're mistaken. Actually... How to put it, hmm... "This matter …" The big man's face suddenly turned red and his eyes flickered as he stuttered.

"Let me do it!" Just as the big man was in a dilemma, a young lady descended from the carriage. She was dressed in a light purple dress, appearing to be around 14 or 15 years old. Other than his black hair, his entire body was snow-white, and his face was extremely beautiful. It was just that there was a hint of blood on his skin.

Her slender waist took a few small steps, revealing a white wrist and a light muslin. Her eyes were filled with clear limpid autumn water. Even though he was young, he had a noble aura that made others look up to him. Lifting his lotus steps, he slowly walked up to Liu Yun.

His expression was blank, and he raised his eyes slightly to look at Liu Yun. She gently opened her red lips and said without any expression, "I am the person you are betrothed to. Our main purpose for coming here is to find you and cancel this marriage."

Saying that, the young girl paused for a moment. Her clear, cold eyes glanced at Liu Yun, as if she wanted to see what expression he would have.

"Oh? Although I don't really care, I still want to know the reason. " Liu Yun originally didn't care about this at all, but in front of so many people, he had his marriage annulled by a woman. Not to mention the ancient era, but even the modern era's open society. To a man, this was an extraordinary shame and humiliation.

The young girl looked at him with some surprise, and then said aloud: "The first marriage is between you and my father's drunken speech, so there is no need to take it seriously. Secondly, I already have someone I like, and that is the current third prince.

Ever since I was a child, I swore that I would become my future husband: I must be able to control the world with a brush, and my martial arts ability will immediately determine the heavens and the earth. One person was above tens of thousands of people, and this person was the current Third Prince. "Therefore, I hope that you can understand and apologize. We will give you a thousand silver taels as compensation." The young girl said softly with an expressionless face.

"That is indeed unsuitable. At the very most, I can raise a pen to control a loli, and I will be unable to make a wife for her on a bed. But it didn't matter. If he couldn't be a lover, he could still be a friend. "I see that you're pretty rich, I like being friends with tycoons the most."

"If we don't have anything to ask for, we can drink some tea and eat to discuss the origin of mankind." Liu Yun shamelessly said as he looked at the young girl's expensive accessories with shining eyes.

When the young girl heard this, she frowned. She never would have thought that her fiance was such a shameless hooligan. She also deeply felt glad that she didn't marry him.

"Please behave yourself. You and I have nothing to do with each other anymore. I hope you don't get entangled with me. A toad can never eat a swan. I hope you can understand the difference between the two of us. " The young girl raised her head as she spoke with utter contempt.

"Grandpa Mao once said that excessive modesty is acting. Overly modesty is acting like a fool. Joining the Monarch. Also, you have nothing to do with me anyway. If you want to go with anyone, go with them, there's no need to tell me. " Liu Yun glanced at the commoners who were pointing fingers at him and said in a tepid voice.

When the young girl heard this, she slightly frowned and gently said, "I think you've misunderstood. We didn't come to ask for your forgiveness, but to politely tell you something …" As he spoke, he looked Liu Yun up and down with his mind and eyes, full of contempt.

"Alright, you've won, although I don't know where you got that feeling of superiority. But I don't plan on wasting my time on you, because I need to hurry up and earn money to eat. Liu Yun looked at the awkward face of the big man as he spoke, picked up the heavy bag, and turned around to leave without looking back.

"Xue'er, this …" The big man's face turned red as he looked at Liu Yun with guilt in his eyes. He wanted to say something, but he hesitated.

"Let's go! It's more important to be serious, and there's no need to waste time with people like them. " As she spoke, the girl turned around and boarded the carriage.

The horse carriage had not gone far when a weak but firm voice came from behind: "Today's shame, in the future, I will definitely return it tenfold. Catching up to you, playing with you, and then ruthlessly shaking you off. "

Hearing this, the young girl in the carriage slightly frowned. His fingers unconsciously exerted a bit more force, and pinched off a few pieces of the flower petals in his hand. A pungent smell of flowers filled the entire carriage.

"Hehe, this kid is really pitiful. His wife had already run off with someone, but he didn't dare to make a sound. To be humiliated like this by this woman, you really are a coward. "

"Yeah, yeah, but is he a local? I've lived here for dozens of years, how come I've never seen him before? "

"Sigh, you can't say that either. How could such a beautiful woman be willing to marry such a poor scholar? Humans, you must definitely go up. "
