Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Wang Wen wasn’t sure if their encounter had anything to do with the attack. Regardless, he felt it was important to share everything with Jiang Chuan.

Jiang Chuan frowned, deep in thought. After a moment, he asked, “Brother Wang, can you recall what those two looked like?”

Wang Wen was blessed with a good memory. As soon as the question left Jiang Chuan’s lips, he found himself describing the couple’s appearances in detail.

A cold smile formed on Jiang Chuan’s face. Sun Li and his wife were involved yet again. He wondered, ‘What are they planning this time?’

Wang Wen noticed Jiang Chuan’s expression change. Driven by curiosity, he probed further. Jiang Chuan didn’t hold anything back, sharing what he had heard after their descent from the mountain.

A wave of shock washed over Wang Wen. His face turned ashen. Could it be that their encounter with the wolves was because of the scent they picked up from that couple? The thought of such an undeserved calamity nearly made him dizzy.

He made a mental note to discuss this matter with Shen Mo. Although that couple might not have intended any harm, the damage they had caused was undeniable. Furthermore, if Jiang Chuan was right, and the couple had schemed to harm Jiang Chuan’s family, this serious violation of law needed to be investigated thoroughly.

Meanwhile, Shen Mo, who was in Wang Wen’s thoughts, was dealing with his own problems. His abdominal wound was bleeding significantly due to the rough journey. Zhou Lan was present, so Jiang Xia decided not to get involved in dressing his wound. She ignored her mother’s constant hints to help.

Jiang Xia couldn’t deny her feelings for Shen Mo. He was attractive, came from a good family, and was personally remarkable. It would be a lie to say she was indifferent. But she also knew the truth – she and Shen Mo belonged to different worlds.

She was clear about herself. Unlike her mother, she didn’t judge the era with modern thinking. She understood that many girls were chasing Shen Mo, including some exceptional ones. Why would she believe Shen Mo would be interested in her?

With these thoughts, Jiang Xia distanced herself even more from Shen Mo. She ignored her mother’s constant attempts to get her attention and walked over to the man carrying the satchel.

She had initially thought he wouldn’t have come today. To her surprise, he did, but he had stayed at the foot of the mountain. His decision had spared him from the calamity.

“Uncle, can 1 take a look at the camera?” Jiang Xia asked.

Cameras were a rare item in this era, scarcely seen even in towns.

The man carrying the satchel looked up at Jiang Xia and, after a moment of hesitation, handed her the camera.

Upon receiving the camera, Jiang Xia thanked him, then settled down to tinker with it.

When Jiang Gu saw her sister fiddling with the camera, she ran to sit beside Jiang Xia. Her position completely blocked their mother’s view of Jiang Xia, giving her a sigh of relief.

“Sister, did glasses uncle lend you his camera?” Jiang Gu asked curiously.

While silently cheering for Jiang Gu’s strategic positioning in her mind, Jiang Xia replied with a smile, “Yes! glasses uncle lent it to me.”

Unlike modern cameras, this vintage model was quite hefty, loaded with film. After taking pictures, you needed to process the film to get photos.

Having never handled such a camera before, Jiang Xia was cautious not to damage it. Both the camera and film were quite expensive, and she couldn’t afford to pay for any damages.

Recalling how she had asked the satchel carrying uncle to borrow his camera, his moment of hesitation probably indicated his reluctance. Yet, out of gratitude for saving his life, he had still lent it to Jiang Xia. Even now, he was anxiously watching her handle the camera.

Due to Jiang Gu’s obstruction, Shen Mo also withdrew his gaze from Jiang Xia.

Shen Mo found this family to be quite unique. Initially, he was drawn by Jiang Xia’s distinctive charm. Now, he noticed the skillful woman who was treating him also possessed remarkable abilities.

Although the woman seemed to be rely on brute force when she attacked, his understanding of martial arts allowed him to see a pattern. Both her strikes and evasive movements hinted at prior martial arts training. This differed from his previous impressions of Jiang Chuan’s family.

In the midst of Shen Mo’s deep thought, Zhou Lan’s voice abruptly broke in, “The bandage is secured. We’re safe here for now. Rest up. 1’11 make a quick trip back to the village to borrow a donkey cart to take you back.”

Zhou Lan made quite a show of getting up. As she did so, she specifically called out to Jiang Xia to come and look after Shen Mo. Her gaze carried an unspoken but clear intent, causing Jiang Xia’s face to fall into an expression of helplessness..
