Chapter 18 - Chapter 18: Miss, We Meet Again

"Young Master, look, it's that girl."

As soon as Xuan Ying left the bun shop, he saw Shen Qinglan carrying a bamboo basket and a bag of rice.

Duan Yunfei looked over and saw Shen Qinglan stopping in front of a fruit stall.

His eyes flickered as he said to Xuan Ming and Xuan Ying, "It's rare for you guys to go down the mountain, so go take a walk."

"What? Then Young Master, you…"

Before Xuan Ying could finish his sentence, Xuan Ming interrupted him.

"Yes, Young Master!"

Xuan Ying wanted to say something, but was dragged away by Xuan Ming.

Duan Yunfei saw that the two of them had already blended into the crowd, so he walked over to Shen Qinglan.

Shen Qinglan bought a few pears and was about to leave after paying when she saw someone standing behind her.

She was stunned at first, but then she could not help but frown.

When did this person appear behind her? Why didn't she notice anything at all?

Duan Yunfei's handsome face had a smile as he said, "Miss, we meet again."

Shen Qinglan looked at him warily for a while. Since she didn't feel any malice, she responded and walked around him.

Duan Yunfei froze and thought to himself, Although I've changed my appearance, my appearance isn't that bad. Why is this girl so unfazed?

He looked back at Shen Qinglan, who had walked away. He raised his eyebrows, but curiosity flickered in his light purple eyes.

The fruit stall owner said with surprise, "This little girl looks weak, but I didn't expect her to be even stronger than me, an old man."

"Oh really?"

Duan Yunfei turned around with interest and raised his eyebrows at the stall owner.

"Young Master, did you see the bag in her hands?" At first, I thought it was cotton, but I didn't expect it to be rice."

Duan Yunfei asked in surprise, "Rice?"

However, when he thought of how Shen Qinglan had easily dragged away the wild boar weighing more than 100 pounds on the mountain this morning, he felt convinced.

He wondered which expert taught such an interesting little girl.

He was suddenly curious.

After Shen Qinglan left the fruit stall, she went straight to the town gate.

As soon as she reached the town gate, she saw the coachman who had sent her here today enjoying the shade under a big tree.

There were already several women in the carriage, but Shen Qinglan didn't know them.

When the coachman saw her, his eyes instantly lit up. He quickly waved at her and said, "Miss, you're here. Hurry up and get in the carriage."

Shen Qinglan responded. Ignoring the looks of the others, she put the rice bag and bamboo basket on the ox cart, then sat on it.

After she looked up at the sky, she estimated that it was around three o'clock in the afternoon.

She had been out since dawn, and her family must be anxious since they hadn't seen her.

Shen Qinglan's guess was right. When the Shen family saw that she hadn't returned for a long time, they were so anxious that they searched all over the village and mountains, but still could not find her. Dong Yao and Shen Qingju were so anxious that they cried.

Even the two elders of the Shen family went out searching.

They asked the villagers, who all said that they hadn't seen her. Her family were about to borrow an ox cart from others to go to town.

Because they could not find anyone, everyone gathered at Shen Shan's house. So, as soon as Shen Qinglan entered the door, she saw the two elders of the Shen family, Shen He and Shen Tang, and even her youngest cousin, Shen Qing'an.

"Third Sister!"

Shen Qingping, who was the first to see her, immediately cried and pounced on her.

Shen Qinglan could not stop him because she was holding something in her hands. She could only let him hug her thigh with snot and tears.

Shen Qinglan was a little speechless. Since she could not move her legs, she could only stand still.
