550 Dying (3)
“Why don’t we go back and take a look?” Shen Miao said, “If you really left it there, the people in the restaurant will probably pick it up. I’ll go with you to take a look.”
Feng Anning thought for a moment and said, “I’ll go myself. It’s fine if I can’t find it. I’m not sad about the money. It’s just that it’s rare to find something I like so much.”
Luo Tan was a little speechless. Feng Anning was indeed rich. In fact, although the Feng family was rich, it was not to the point where they could squander money like this. The Feng family really loved Feng Anning and they never hesitated to give her money. As a result, Feng Anning did not have a clear definition of money. When she lost something, she’d just get another one.
“I’ll bring a few guards up to take a look.” Feng Anning said, “Wait for me here. I’ll come back soon.”
Shen Miao nodded. Feng Anning left with more than half of the guards.
After Feng Anning left, only Luo Tan and Shen Miao were in the carriage. There were still four guards guarding outside. Luo Tan looked at the sky and said, “It’ll probably be dark when we return home.” As she spoke, she stretched and said, “I’m really tired today. I’m going to sleep in tomorrow. No one can wake me up.”
At this moment, they heard the guard outside say, “Miss Shen, Miss Luo, I just found Miss Feng’s hairpin.”
“What?” Luo Tan was stunned. She lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw a guard outside holding a flickering gemstone hairpin. If it wasn’t the cat eye hairpin that Feng Anning had lost, then what was it?
Luo Tan frowned. “Anning is really reckless. She didn’t even know she dropped it on the ground.”
The guard took two steps towards the carriage. Luo Tan reached out to take the hairpin.
Just as she held the hairpin, the guard suddenly pulled Luo Tan out!
Another guard of the Feng family suddenly jumped into the carriage and knocked the coachman down. He whipped the horses hard. The horses felt the pain and suddenly started galloping, running crazily on the street!
Everything happened too quickly. Before the other two guards of the Feng family could react, the carriage was already more than ten meters away!
Fortunately, Luo Tan was also on the carriage. Luo Tan reacted extremely quickly when the guard tried to pull her out. She grabbed the edge of the carriage tightly and leaned back. It was a critical moment. Seeing that he could not drag Luo Tan out of the carriage, the man did not insist. He jumped onto another horse and ran out of the city with the carriage.
There were many commoners on the street who were stunned by the rampaging carriage. Some vendors could not dodge in time and their stalls were overturned. The carriage ran extremely quickly, and Shen Miao and Luo Tan were dizzy from the sway.
At the critical moment, Luo Tan still remembered to hold Shen Miao’s hand and say, “Cousin, don’t be afraid. Let’s jump out of the carriage and reveal our identities. There are so many people outside. They won’t dare to drag us back in.”
Shen Miao felt a warmth in her heart. She couldn’t help but say, “It’s too late. Look outside.”
Luo Tan grabbed the edge of the carriage and looked out. She was stunned to realize that the street was gone. Instead, they were in a deserted alley. Luo Tan suddenly felt despair. Just now, she wanted to jump out of the carriage. At least, this could save her life. But in this narrow alley, she had nowhere to run.
