Chapter 145 Sharp-tongued and sharp-tongued
Yan Yun followed them, originally intending to take Qing'er to the backyard.
Because the door was narrow and not enough for several people to go in at once, and those people wouldn't let Yan Yun make a move.
“Miss, we’ll do these jobs. You just need to stand aside and wait.”
Yan Yun stood aside, when he heard a voice from outside the door, saying, "Come quick, come quick, the door is still open."
Yan Yun turned around to look.
Several men ran straight in.
The two attendants beside Yan Yun immediately stood guard over him.
Hye-young was originally there to deliver a message, but when she saw the other person's face, she was startled and immediately tried to hide, but the other person spotted her quickly.
Upon spotting Huiying there, he immediately waved to the people around him, "That's the girl, arrest her!"
The men immediately stepped forward and grabbed Huiying.
Comet immediately struggled.
Yan Yun immediately spoke up, "Who are you people? How dare you arrest someone in my academy?"
The man glanced at Yan Yun, noticing her distinguished attire, and offered a brief explanation: "We are arresting a maid who escaped from our household."
Yan Yun said, "There are no servants of yours here. She is from our academy."
Seeing that Yan Yun was actually answering questions, the man said directly, "We are servants of the Shi family, here to capture the young master's runaway mistress."
Huiying immediately denied it, "I am not Shi Yunjun's concubine, don't talk nonsense."
The servant looked at Huiying with utter disdain.
"Nonsense, do you think I don't know? I've been following the young master all along. Take him away."
After capturing Huiying, they immediately headed for the door.
The women who had escorted Qing'er inside returned; they had also seen her, and they looked at Yan Yun.
"Miss, you must save Huiying! These people have been loitering outside the academy for days."
Yan Yun asked, "Why would they come to arrest Huiying?"
The woman who went out to buy vegetables told Yan Yun the reason: the Shi family had done something strange, and they said they had consulted a fortune teller, who was also Madam Shi. She said that Madam Shi was grieving for her dead son and had fallen ill. She said that Shi Yunjun was lonely in the underworld and that she wanted to send someone down to keep him company.
Yan Yun frowned upon hearing this and immediately blocked their way, preventing them from leaving.
"Put my men down."
Those people showed no respect to Yan Yun, shouting at her, "We've arrested people from the Shi family. Don't stand in our way, Miss, or don't blame us for being impolite."
Yan Yun looked at them and warned, "You want to be impolite to me? How exactly will you be impolite?"
Yan Yun looked at the two attendants following him, "Are you just going to stand there and watch?"
The two attendants immediately stepped forward.
They were only there to protect the young lady's safety; as long as she was safe, they would not act rashly.
Seeing that the two men showed no sign of making a move, Shi Yunjun's servant boldly took the plunge.
"Get out of the way. We're leaving."
As he spoke, he instructed two other men to step forward and stop Yan Yun.
They took the initiative to attack, and Yan Yun's two attendants immediately rushed over, seeing the group in complete chaos.
Yan Yun grabbed Huiying's hand, and Huiying cried and said, "Miss, if there is an afterlife, I will definitely repay you well. Consider this life as a debt I owe you."
As she was about to bite her tongue, Yan Yunyun quickly stuck her fingers into her mouth and scolded her.
"What are you doing? Don't you trust me with me here?"
Yan Yun held her hand tightly, refusing to let go even after she bit it.
The burly man holding Huiying raised his hand to strike Yan Yun.
A shout came from outside the door: "Stop!"
The man's hand stopped in mid-air, and everyone around looked towards the door in the direction of the sound. Sima Yue walked in from outside the academy.
The surroundings became quiet.
Sima Yue strode into the house, dressed in ordinary clothes, and looked at Yan Yun beside him to ask a question.
"Miss Zheng, are you injured?"
Shi Yunjun's servant immediately questioned the newcomers, "Who are you? Do you know who we are? What will be the consequences of obstructing us?"
Sima Yue's attendant immediately took out the jade token. Upon seeing it, the attendant dared not utter a sound. He immediately flattered, "So it's you, young master. We are here on the orders of our master to capture the runaway servant. We did not cause any trouble."
Yan Yun corrected him, "We don't have anyone from your Shi family here."
The man looked at Huiying and said, "This girl has long been our young master's woman."
Hye-young immediately retorted.
"It wasn't my choice at all; that beast forced me."
Hearing Hye-young's reply.
Shi Yunjun's servant said coldly, "This body already belongs to our young master, how can you say it's not one of our household members?"
Yan Yun looked at the aggressive servant and asked a startling question, "If you were also forced by someone, would you be considered someone from that person's household?"
The servant immediately became anxious.
He looked at the girl in front of him and said, "How did this analogy come back to me? The young master's woman belongs to him, and this girl belongs to him."
He looked at Sima Yue and said, "Well, my master will personally pay his respects to you later. I'll take my men and leave now."
He said he was still leaving.
Yan Yun stopped him.
"Leave my men here first."
Seeing them locked in a tense standoff, Sima Yue spoke to the servant boy from the Shi family.
"It's wrong to come to someone else's academy and snatch someone away."
The servant argued, "We're just arresting people who are trying to escape."
Yan Yun disagreed with him, "Where is there anyone who ran away? Everyone here is from the academy. If you keep saying that she is from your household, then you need to produce evidence. Did she sign a contract of servitude, or is there any evidence that proves she is from your Shi family?"
The servant thought the young lady was very sharp-tongued.
However, a mere merchant's daughter who dares to be so arrogant will not have a good outcome. He originally wanted to say something, but seeing Sima Yue standing to the side, he dared not utter any wild words directly.
Sima Yue looked at Yan Yun and asked Huiying, "Are you from the Shi family?"
Huiying immediately shook her head and said, "Of course not. Shi Yunjun killed my father and humiliated me. I will never forgive him."
Then she really isn't one of his maids.
Yan Yun looked at the servant boy, "Did you hear that?"
The servant said impatiently, "Don't you know how much silver your parents cost the young master?"
He killed her, but then claimed he saved her?
Yan Yun continued, "In that case, let's report it to the authorities. The government will naturally investigate thoroughly. Shi Yingjun was tyrannical in life, and his bad reputation will be passed on to the authorities after his death. It's perfect, I also want to seek justice for this poor woman."
