On a cold night, Lěng Yè and Zhūgě Lín accompanied the heavily injured owner of the roast chicken shop into Fán Téng's room. As soon as they entered, Fán Lìzhēn hurried forward, crying out in terror when she saw the blood-covered owner.
"What—what is happening here? Why is he like this?" Fán Lìzhēn asked in astonishment.
The guards settled the owner onto a nearby chair and quietly withdrew. Lěng Yè turned to Fán Lìzhēn, gently patted the owner's back, and explained, "We found him already stabbed by someone. Fortunately, we arrived in time to save his life while he still had a breath left."
