Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chu Jin looked like a storyteller.

“Did you send the kidnapper to the police?” Ye Muyu asked Lu Chuan.

“They were sent to the officials. I knocked down those kidnappers. When the people nearby found out what happened, they were furious.”

“We saw him enter the government office with our own eyes before we came back,” Lu Chuan replied respectfully. At this moment, he felt a little emotional. Madam’s intuition was really accurate.

If he had not gone over, Chu Jin might have really been kidnapped.

Looking at the kidnapper’s skills, things probably would not be so simple.

“Serves them right. They should be sent to the officials,” Madam Liu said. When she heard that they were sent to the officials, she heaved a sigh of relief.

After this incident, both Madam Zhang and Madam Wang were worried that something would happen to their children.

They were a little anxious to cook.

Madam Luo was also a little worried about her family, so she suggested going out to ask.

Liu Cheng stopped her and said that he would go.

Madam Liu and Chu Zhiwen could not stop him, so they agreed.

The women in the house waited worriedly while the men outside informed their families.

In fact, it started when Lu Chuan and the others met the kidnapper.

The county began to spread the news of meeting kidnappers.

Hence, the news had already spread on the streets.

The county magistrate had just been reminded by Chu Heng, who had come with Xie Yu, that there might be kidnappers. He saw a bailiff come over to inform him that the kidnappers had been caught.

County Magistrate Xu’s expression instantly turned ugly.

“Did anything happen?”

“Milord, no, but those kidnappers were sent here by someone. I’m afraid that in less than fifteen minutes, the whole county will know about this news.” The bailiff did not dare to hide it.

County Magistrate Xu heaved a sigh of relief. As long as there was no trouble, it was not a big deal.

Obviously, County Magistrate Xu was too optimistic.

“Since the county magistrate has something to do, then the servants of the Xie family will distribute the Soft Fragrance Cakes according to the rules so that you won’t be distracted.” Xie Yu spoke up at the right time. He did not want to ruin his plan of promoting the Soft Fragrant Cake because of the kidnapper.

County Magistrate Xu understood what Xie Yu meant.

Since he had given him face in the beginning, he naturally would not reject him because of this matter. “Then I’ll have to trouble you, Third Young Master. The yamen doesn’t have enough manpower. After this incident, we can only arrange for more people to go to the county to maintain order and deal with this kidnapper.”

“There are not enough people in this competition venue. Third Young Master, I owe you a favor.”

“Milord is too polite.” Xie Yu was not arrogant, as long as County Magistrate Xu did not ruin his plan.

County Magistrate Xu arranged for many bailiffs to patrol the area.

On Xie Yu’s side, he arranged for guards to guard the place of the competition and not let anyone cause trouble here.

Chu Heng did not stay for long. After confirming that it was none of his

business, he naturally did not get involved. After informing County Magistrate Xu and Xie Yu, he left.

Along the way, there were many rumors about kidnappers.

It caused a ruckus among the commoners everywhere.

The adults no longer dared to let go of the young children. They were all hugging them. Many people even had the intention to go home.

As soon as the bailiffs began to patrol the streets, the panicked citizens instantly quieted down.

In a secret place, there were some guards of the Xie family.

It could be seen that Xie Yu did not want anything bad to happen today, lest the reputation of Soft Fragrance Cake was ruined. It could be seen that he had put in a lot of effort this time.

When Chu Heng arrived at the residence, he found out that this matter was related to his own child.

His expression instantly turned solemn. ‘ Master,” said Lu Chuan.” I’ve found something.” “What discovery?” Chu Heng asked..
