Lord Yan, The Little Ancestor Has Fallen Off The Horse Again!

By the end of July, the summer heat was blistering, and heat waves tumbled through the sparse crowd on the street.

A girl wearing a baseball cap, with her hair in a low ponytail, and dressed in a plaid shirt—although old, it was very clean—carried a sack on her back, filled with quite a few items.

She stepped down to flatten a can on the ground, then casually tossed it into the sack behind her as she looked around searching for her next target.

"Boss, it's that junk girl again, I can't believe she's out scavenging on such a hot day. I wish I could stay 24 hours in an air-conditioned room!" A red-haired teenager, sucking on an ice pop, pointed at Yun Yue not far away.

Junk girl was the nickname they had given her, as they often saw her scavenging on this street. Her black baseball cap, plaid shirt, and the sack on her back were her signature look.

Wei Xuan took another lick of his ice pop, feeling the heat within him subside, squinted his eyes and looked over – it was 37 degrees Celsius out, hot enough to cook an egg, yet she was out here collecting junk?

Green-Haired teenager revealed a sinister smile, "Hey, I've got an idea."

The three of them always hung out together, so of course, they knew what that smile meant.

They spent the afternoon sitting by the convenience store, surrounded by the cans and mineral water bottles they had left on the ground.

By five o'clock, they finally caught sight of the junk girl who frequently scavenged on this street, knowing she would pass by at this time.

"Hey! Junk girl, we have a lot of cans and bottles here, do you want them?" Green-Haired teenage shouted.

Yun Yue's eyebrows furrowed slightly, her head tilted a bit, then she ignored them and left.

"Quite a character!" Wei Xuan propped his chin in his right hand, his eyebrows raised with interest.

The three of them moved in unison to surround her, their branded clothes and sneakers starkly contrasted her worn-out plaid shirt.

They scrutinized her closely – standing at 165 centimeters, she was extremely thin, her skin a bit sallow, the type that looked like they could be blown over by a gust of wind. Her baseball cap partially hid her face, only revealing her pointed chin.

Under their gaze, she stood straight-backed, not the least bit timid, which they found surprising.

These three delinquent teenagers usually inspired fear even among boys, yet she, a girl who seemed as if a strong breeze could topple her, was quite bold!

"What's in your sack? Take it out and let me have a look," Wei Xuan teased, as Red-Haired and Green-Haired burst into laughter.

Yun Yue's brow creased slightly, her lips pursed in silence. She raised her head slightly, looking at Wei Xuan.

It was then that Wei Xuan got a clear view of her features – a small face with delicately structured features, a high nose bridge, and big, brown eyes that were stunningly beautiful, radiating brilliance.

Seeing her silent, Green-Haired furrowed his brows, and tugged at her, "The boss is talking to you! Are you mute or something?"

Yun Yue cast a sideways glance at him. Green-Haired's hand retracted involuntarily; for some reason, he felt a bit scared when looking into her eyes. This realization made him annoyed – he, who feared neither heaven nor earth, was afraid of a junk girl?

"Believe it or not, if you don't speak, I'll hit you!" Green-Haired turned menacing, a look that normally made girls cry out of fear.

Unexpectedly, she remained expressionless, seemingly disdainful, and averted her eyes!

Green-Haired: "!"

He felt offended!

"Don't think I won't hit girls. I'll have you know we're not afraid to hit girls either!" Green-Haired felt he had lost face in front of his buddies. He reached out to snatch her sack away, and with a "whoosh," the contents spilled out onto the ground, making loud clattering noises.

The streets were gradually becoming more crowded as people noticed a girl being bullied, but upon seeing that it was Yun Yue, they all acted as though it were nothing unusual and left.

"Pff, look at you, a trash picker with such a backbone, not even taking a can when it's offered. Then don't bother with this bag either."

The Green-Haired youth sneered, tearing open the sack and throwing it on the ground while Yun Yue, from beginning to end, remained tearless, unflinching, with an indifferent look in her eyes.

"You're really taking this bullying thing too far, aren't you? These could sell for ten bucks at least," said the Red-Haired youth, chuckling as if it were all a joke.

"Ten bucks? What's that gonna do, not even enough for me to buy a popsicle!" Green-Haired scorned.

They had no real sense of money; their monthly pocket money ran into tens of thousands—what was ten bucks to them!

"Take it easy, Greeny. I think she might just be an idiot," Wei Xuan, with his arms crossed, had never heard her utter a word, nor had she shown any expression while being bullied. If she wasn't an idiot, what else could she be?

"An idiot?" The two voiced in unison, taking another careful look at her, nodding in agreement almost as if on cue—indeed, she seemed to fit the bill of an idiot.

Yun Yue pointed towards a nearby alley.

The three of them looked over with surprise, puzzled by her intentions.

Without looking back, she headed for the alley, and the trio glanced at each other before following out of curiosity.

In their eyes, a girl as skinny as a stick posed no threat to them and they weren't worried about any tricks she might have up her sleeve!

After following her into a dead-end alley, the outside wind was hot, yet, inexplicably, it was cool and chilling here, making them shiver unintentionally.

Wei Xuan frowned, not understanding why she had brought them here. Was she not planning to run away?

Could she really be an idiot?

"Trash-picker girl, what are you doing bringing us here? Just so you know, if we start hitting you, you won't even have the chance to run!" The Green-Haired youth also couldn't figure out her game, finding her 'idiot's logic' rather unique.

Yun Yue had her back to them, calmly rolling up her sleeves to reveal her slender, pale wrists. In such hot weather, she was wearing a long shirt—as if the heat didn't bother her?

She turned around, her black cap obscuring her eyes, making it impossible to read her emotions.

"Fuck! You really are an idiot, having made fools of us!" cursed the Red-Haired youth, feeling as if their intelligence had been insulted.

Just as he was thinking about how to teach her a lesson, a cold breeze whooshed by and a shadow flashed. A painful cry rang in their ears.

Wei Xuan and the Red-Haired youth were shocked! They saw it was the trash-picker girl, holding onto Green-Haired youth's right hand!

His hand was twisted out of shape, sweat as big as soybeans pouring out, his face twisted in agony!

"Let him go!" The Red-Haired youth, utterly unprepared for such a turn of events, was furious. He charged to kick her away but swung at thin air instead, receiving a Shadowless Kick to his backside, the force sending him crashing into the wall, where he finally came to a stop!

Wei Xuan dropped his indifferent facade and sized her up seriously; she was skinny as a stick, and yet her strength was immense! One should know Green-Haired could lift a hundred pounds with both hands, not something a skinny girl like her could do!

"Boss, save me!"

The Green-Haired youth couldn't help but cry out for help, feeling his hand must have been broken!

"Let him go, I'll take you on one-on-one!" Wei Xuan said, running into such an amusing situation for the first time, he naturally wanted to have some fun with it.
