When Gu Man saw this, she raised her eyebrows and subconsciously turned to look at Xiang Yin, but Xiang Yin did not seem to know anything.
The stall owner was still following behind Xiang Yin and was entangled with him. He did not realize that his stall was being robbed.
Gu Man stood there with no intention of interfering, but at this moment, something unexpected happened. A girl rushed over and grabbed the man’s collar, shouting, “Why are you so dirty? I’ve been looking at you for a long time just now. You’re pretending to look at things and stuff everything in the stall into your sleeve.”
With that, the girl went to tug at the man’s sleeve. The man was extremely fl.u.s.tered. He hugged his clothes and wanted to leave, but the girl would not let him go so easily. She quickly tugged at his clothes.
In the blink of an eye, everything hidden in the man’s clothes fell to the ground. He widened his eyes and looked at the things that wanted to hide, but it was too late. Someone at the stall beside him had already recognized the things on the ground and immediately shouted.
“I was wondering why he didn’t buy any of them after looking at them for a long time. So he wanted to steal something and reap what he sowed!”
“What the h.e.l.l, my Moonlight Cup was stolen too.”
“How could he steal my p.i.s.s pot?”
“I can tell at a glance that they’re yoga pants bought on TikTok. They can hold so many things. I’ll order one later.”
The voices at the side kept discussing. Moreover, many stall owners had already reached out and casually took the things on the ground, even if they did not belong to them.
The man wanted to stop her when he saw this, but it was useless. His face was red and his eyes burned with anger as he glared in the woman’s direction.
The next second, the angry man actually reached out to slap the girl’s cheek.
A frightened expression appeared on the girl’s face and she subconsciously shrank her neck.
However, the expected pain did not come. She carefully opened her eyes and looked at the scene in front of her. When she saw that familiar figure, the girl said excitedly, “Gu Man!”
Gu Man turned around and looked at the girl’s familiar face. It was the girl who had parted ways with her at the w.a.n.g Family Auction House.
Her gaze almost subconsciously landed on the girl’s neck. She was still wearing the necklace.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t expect the matter online to blow up so much.” The girl scratched her head shyly.
“It has nothing to do with you,” Gu Man said as she shook off the man in front of her.
“How is it unrelated? 1 saw the comments online. It’s all my fault for causing you to be misunderstood.” At this point, the girl’s voice was a little choked up, as if she was really guilty.
On the other side, the man looked at his hand in disbelief. He did not intend to give up and attacked again.
However, the man’s attack was nothing in Gu Man’s eyes. Gu Man could even resist the man and talk to the girl. “You’re not the culprit. You don’t have to apologize to me.”
Seeing that Gu Man really did not look angry, the girl heaved a sigh of relief. Her eyes flickered. “After seeing you last time, I made up my mind not to be weak anymore. I have to actively appear to change the current situation, but I’m still too weak.”
Gu Man swept her leg and the man knelt on the ground. His voice was crisp and powerful.
“What did you say?” Gu Man turned around and looked at the girl. She had been fighting too hard just now and did not hear the girl’s last sentence.
The girl looked at Gu Man and then at the man kneeling on the ground. Her eyes lit up even more. She reached out and grabbed Gu Man’s arm. “I know my request is very presumptuous, but can you please teach me? I want to become as powerful as you!”
When Gu Man heard this, she was in a daze. Only then did she remember that she had taken in a cheap disciple before, but she had not taught him anything until now.
Far away, Zhou Yan suddenly sneezed. She sniffed and looked at the man with his back facing her with disgust in her eyes..
