Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Just as there was a silent uproar and the scene was stunned by Guan Chibei, a loud voice suddenly sounded. “What are you doing?!”

Everyone turned around and subconsciously opened up a path. They saw the tall and handsome Lin Yuchen appear. He had a group of officials behind him, so everyone knew that he was the county magistrate.

The scene was silent. Everyone would definitely hold their breaths when they saw the county magistrate. However, the Shang dynasty did not have the rule of kneeling and greeting in front of the officials everywhere they went. Furthermore, there were many merchants in Yuan City, so it was special. Therefore, everyone present only restrained themselves and looked at Lin Yuchen with bated breath.

Lin Yuchen walked over and happened to see the chaos on the ground. The wooden cart was already tattered and the ground was filled with crushed ingredients.

“Who’s causing trouble?!”

Lin Yuchen happened to lead the officials to the newly opened docks at the Yuan River to take a look when they bumped into Ye Lulu’s stall.

He had rushed over because he had heard the voices from outside the crowd. Unexpectedly, as soon as he pushed through the crowd, he saw a familiar face.

Lin Yuchen was stunned when he met Guan Chibei’s eyes. It was him?

The scene was of Guan Chibei and Ye Lulu standing in the middle, calm and indifferent. There was no difference in their expressions. As for the group of strong men who looked more like bad people, one of them was lying on the ground while the other was thrown out.

Lin Yuchen immediately knew what happened. He looked at Guan Chibei in surprise. He did not expect this mountain man to be so strong.

He could defeat so many strong men alone?!

Lin Yuchen was extremely surprised. He took a few steps forward and said, “What happened? No one is allowed to create trouble in Yuan City and bully the commoners. Who are these people?”

The soldier behind Lin Yuchen was the backing that Brother Ba and the rest knew.

Furthermore, Brother Ba and the rest had been in contact with the ‘officials’ for a long time, so they naturally thought that they were more familiar with them.

Brother Ba, who had fallen to the ground but could not get up for some reason, propped up his upper body and remembered. He looked at Lin Yuchen. Although it was the county magistrate who had arrived, his distant cousin was standing behind him. The official even signaled Brother Ba with his eyes.

Brother Ba nodded secretly as a response. Since he knew someone from the government, he was not afraid. Hence, Brother Ba calmed down and leaned on the ground. He tried his best to look up and even said to Lin Yuchen:

“County Magistrate, it was us brothers who passed by. This couple from the stall inexplicably attacked us and beat us up…”

Before Brother Ba could finish, he was interrupted by Lin Yuchen.

“It’s you guys. You’re called Guan Chibei, right? What’s going on? Did you guys come out to the docks to set up a stall?”

Brother Ba’s words stopped abruptly. Even the official behind the county magistrate was suddenly stunned and his expression froze.

Brother Ba turned around and looked at Guan Chibei in disbelief. The county magistrate knew this couple?!

Guan Chibei’s expression was calm, and Ye Lulu also recognized this county magistrate whom she had interacted with before. She immediately said, “Yes, County Magistrate. This commoner girl pays her respects to the county magistrate. It’s like this. We did set up a stall at the docks, but just now, this group of men, with the leader named Brother Ba, suddenly walked over and looked for trouble with us. He wanted to snatch our stall and wooden cart. He even wanted to forcefully take the recipe for our family’s food.. If we don’t give it to him, they will attack us.”
