Chapter 521: Chapter 521: Saving People, Chance Encounter with Jing Wanpeng

Just as everyone was still in a daze, another person rushed towards that direction; at the same time, everyone also noticed the child on the roof, some women covered their mouths in fear of screaming out loud.

When the two of them managed to catch the boy, a chorus of gasps filled the market. It was then that Luo Qiao realized the person who had helped her rescue the child was Jing Wanpeng.

By now, the child’s parents had also rushed over, taking their son and quickly hugging him in gratitude. Luo Qiao had been frightened into a cold sweat herself—it was a two-story height, and the ground was hardened with cement. Such a small child could have been in great danger if he had fallen.

The couple sold vegetables in the market and had not expected their son to mischievously climb up to the second-story rooftop with his friends.

After the market’s person in charge arrived and was overcome with relief, he had the area where they had climbed up locked as soon as he found out.

If an accident had really occurred today, they might have faced punishment, so they also repeatedly expressed their gratitude.

Luo Qiao looked at Jing Wanpeng, "Young Master Jing, what brings you here?"

Jing Wanpeng replied, "The mother of one of my subordinates fell ill. We were passing by and wanted to buy some fruit to visit her."

Luo Qiao nodded and smiled, "Young Master Jing really is a good boss."

Feng Shumin came over to check on Luo Qiao’s arms and felt relieved after making sure there were no injuries, "It’s good you’re safe, you gave me such a scare."

The couple had also recovered by this time and insisted on giving Luo Qiao and Jing Wanpeng some vegetables as thanks. Both hurriedly declined, but the husband loaded up a basket with a variety of vegetables despite their protests.

Luo Qiao smiled, "You already operate on thin margins, we can’t just take these for free."

The man said, "Take them, if it weren’t for you today, we would have been...," he choked up, unable to continue.

At this moment, the market’s person in charge interjected, "Please take them, it’ll give them peace of mind. Besides, if it weren’t for you today, I daren’t think of the consequences."

After exchanging glances with Jing Wanpeng, Luo Qiao said, "Alright then, we’ll accept the vegetables." She thought to herself that she would return to buy more vegetables later to support their business.

Once they left that area, Jing Wanpeng looked at the vegetables in his hand and said to Luo Qiao, "You take these as well. I’m off to visit the sick, and it’ll be inconvenient carrying these around."

Luo Qiao felt a bit embarrassed, but Jing Wanpeng had already handed her the vegetables. Thinking of the Liu family grandchildren next to her master’s home, she responded, "Alright then, your well-dressed appearance does suffer a bit carrying vegetables. I’ll help you out."

Jing Wanpeng looked at Luo Qiao with a faint smile, "Thank you, then."

The subordinate following Jing Wanpeng was nearly shocked silly, thinking to himself how startling it was to see their boss actually smiling.

After giving a nod to the people around Luo Qiao as a form of greeting, he said, "I have to leave now for some errands."

After Jing Wanpeng left, Feng Shumin asked, "Do you know that person just now?"

Luo Qiao replied, "He is the third youngest of the Jing family, Jing Wanpeng. I’ve treated Elder Jing’s leg before."

Feng Shumin said, "Oh, I see."

Yang Jiancheng looked at the departing Jing Wanpeng, "Truly, like father like son."

Luo Qiao inquired, "Master, do you know Elder Jing?"

Yang Jiancheng nodded, "I had the honor of meeting him twice before."

As the three of them walked back, Luo Qiao said, "Master, Mistress, we can’t finish all these vegetables, and they won’t be fresh in a couple of days. I’ll give some to Grandma Liu and her grandchildren next door."

Yang Jiancheng said, "Go on, take some of the fruit you brought along too."

Feng Shumin went into the kitchen and took out some freshly steamed buns, "Take these as well, they’ll make a decent meal with some porridge."

Luo Qiao carried the items next door and upon reaching the gate, called inside, "Grandma Liu, are you home?"

A voice came from inside, "Who is it?"

Luo Qiao smiled, "Grandma Liu, it’s me, the neighbor. Professor Yang is my master. We met last time."

Grandma Liu laughed, "Of course, I remember. How could I forget such a pretty young lady? Come on in."
