Lovely Substitute Bride

"Wen Tiantian looked down at the person in front of her in surprise." "You …"    

Just as he was about to speak, another few people rushed out from the crowd and looked around.    

Upon seeing the person before Wen Tiantian, he immediately ran over and grabbed him.    

The man didn't even have time to resist before he was pulled up and dragged away.    

"Wait!"    

Wen Tiantian called out to them.    

The few of them turned their heads over, and their eyes were filled with murderous intent.    

The men in front of him seemed to be local people. They were all wearing black clothes and had unusually tall statures. Their faces were full of sideburns and they had an imposing manner.    

Wen Tiantian was startled by his appearance. The other party didn't even pay attention to her and directly left with his men, disappearing into the crowd.    

She frowned and was about to give chase when she heard a voice behind her.    

"Mama!"    

Wen Tiantian turned around and saw Ji Yuqing walking over from behind.    

After looking around, he finally caught sight of Wen Tiantian and walked over. He heaved a sigh of relief.    

"Mama, are you alright?"    

"Yes."    

Wen Tiantian was still hesitant in her heart. She turned her head to look in the direction that the men had left, only to find that there was no longer any trace of them.    

The few tall locals, as well as the old man with black hair and black eyes, had all disappeared, as if they had never appeared before.    

Ji Yuqing noticed that something was wrong with her expression. He curiously leaned over and followed Wen Tiantian to look in that direction, but he didn't know what she was looking at.    

Puzzled: "Mama, what are you looking at?"    

Wen Tiantian shook her head. "There was someone who wanted me to help him just now, but I don't know what happened …"    

As he was speaking, he suddenly remembered the bag that the middle-aged man threw into the pit. He quickly walked over and squatted down to feel around in the dark for a while.    

Ji Yuqing looked at her in confusion. "Mama, what are you looking for?"    

"Just now, that person left something here. It should be somewhere nearby …"    

She quickly turned the pages and her eyes lit up. She then pulled out a khaki-coloured backpack from the drainage ditch by the street.    

That's right, this was what the person had left in here.    

"What's in it?" Ji Yuqing curiously came over.    

Together, they opened the earthen yellow bag in their hands, only to discover that there was actually a bowl inside.    

Wen Tiantian couldn't help but exclaim the moment he took it out.    

This bowl was actually a Blue and White Porcelain!    

Even under the dim light of the street lamps, there was still a dazzling glow of light. With a glance, one could tell that this was no ordinary product, and it looked extremely old.    

This can't be...    

An idea popped into Wen Tiantian's mind as she quickly turned the bowl over. Sure enough, she saw that the Blue and White Porcelain was created more than a thousand years ago!    

Judging from his first step, this Blue and White Porcelain was very likely to be the real deal, but why was it so casually stored in that man's backpack?    

Could it be that the other party did not know the value of this Blue and White Porcelain bowl?    

Wen Tiantian frowned, her heart filled with doubts.    

Could it be that the people chasing after him were after the Blue and White Porcelain in his hands?    

Wen Tiantian immediately stood up when she thought of this possibility.    

"No, I have to find that person as soon as possible."    

The man looked haggard, as if he hadn't had a good rest in a long time.    

He looked around, then followed the direction that those people left in and said, "We have to find that person. It's dangerous."    

Ji Yuqing followed behind her and passed through the crowd that was still in a frenzy.    

After knowing Wen Tiantian's guess, Ji Yuqing frowned. He was very worried and his expression was very serious.    

"If that's the case, we can't go to him."    

"Why?" Wen Tiantian was puzzled.    

Ji Yuqing was very calm and said, "If what you're saying is true, then they must have some influence in the area. But to directly arrest them at a place like this, it seems like they have the determination to get their hands on this treasure. "They have already caught him. If they find out he's missing something when they get back, they will definitely come back for it."    

He looked worriedly at Wen Tiantian.    

"If you go back at this time, they might come to catch you."    

As she was speaking, Wen Tiantian turned around and saw a few familiar faces on the other side of the street.    

They were the locals who had been chasing after the middle-aged man!    

They were looking around while walking towards the direction where they met Wen Tiantian.    

He really did come back to find her, just like Ji Yuqing said!    

Ji Yuqing immediately grabbed her.    

"Mama, let's hide."    

The two of them quickly dodged to the side and hid inside a building.    

Ji Yuqing was very cautious. Before leaving, he promised Ji Jingchen that he would take good care of Wen Tiantian and not let her get hurt.    

Hiding within the building, he pricked up his ears to listen for any movement outside.    

However, right now, everyone was having a party. There was a wave of noise and music outside, and no one could hear anything.    

However, this would still be beneficial for them. The other side shouldn't be able to find this place so quickly.    

However …    

Ji Yuqing looked at the time anxiously. The three hours that he and Ji Jingchen had agreed on were about to pass. At that time, even the ship would start sailing again.    

If they didn't make it in time, they would most likely be left behind on the island.    

Ji Yuqing stood up anxiously.    

"They should have left by now, right?"    

As he spoke, he prepared to leave.    

Wen Tiantian pulled him back as soon as he took a step.    

"Wait, I can't go out right now."    

"But if we don't go on the ship, we're going to leave."    

Wen Tiantian shook her head firmly, her gaze calm.    

"Let's wait a little while longer."    

At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from outside.    

Ji Yuqing immediately went back and hid in a corner.    

They waited for a while longer until there was no news from outside before the two of them finally came out.    

They avoided the crowd and quickly ran in the direction of the harbor. They finally arrived at the port with great difficulty, but they discovered that the cruise ship they were on had already disappeared.    

"What should we do?"    

Ji Yuqing was so worried that he couldn't even see the shadow of the cruise anymore.    

They were left on the island.    

They didn't have much money with them, and there were even people capturing them. How were they supposed to wait on this island until rescue arrived?    

At that moment, Wen Tiantian pulled his hand and said, "It's too dangerous to stay here. Let's go back first."    

The harbor was empty, and since the ship had left, the surroundings were completely clear.    

If the person from before had appeared in the vicinity, he would have definitely noticed them and had to leave as soon as possible.    

"Don't worry." Seeing the worried look on Ji Yuqing's face, Wen Tiantian comforted, "Ji Jingchen will definitely find out that we haven't boarded the ship. He's here to find us. Trust him."    

Ji Yuqing looked up and his gaze landed on Wen Tiantian. He realized that he panicked a step earlier than her. On the contrary, Wen Tiantian was the one who was calmly analyzing the current situation.
