Chapter 214: Chapter 214: A Sudden Trip-Up_1

"Murder!"

A woman's scream rang out from the crowd, causing those who had been enjoying the spectacle to look around in all directions, attempting to locate the origin of the sound.

Long before, Liu Jie had placed people in various corners of the North Market. Hearing the commotion, they all headed towards the noise.

In the shadows, Shen Wenchen's eyes narrowed slightly, signaling to his subordinates standing by him.

The men exchanged a glance, then silently blended into the crowd.

Now was the time.

The Lin brothers, each carrying two children, instinctively protected their wives and children behind them upon hearing the disturbance.

"Be careful."

Lin Ercheng spoke seriously, standing close with Lin Yicheng. Both men guarded the six people behind them by staring at the chaotic crowd, leaving no room for carelessness.

Sun Cui gripped Chen Qiulan's hand tightly, full of worry.

Feeling her sister's fear, Chen Qiulan patted her hand comfortingly.

"Don't worry."
