The boatman's voice fell.
Suddenly, a frail woman jumped directly onto the boat.
The boatman showed no intention of sparing the weak, raising his hand to hit Su Yan, that woman.
Only, the anticipated scene of falling into the river didn't occur.
The woman raised her hand, effortlessly catching the boatman's attack.
With a flick of her hand, she almost flung the boatman off the boat.
The boatman finally dropped his impatient expression he had moments ago.
This woman who ran the merchant ship was Su Yan.
The boatman scrutinized Su Yan from head to toe, then waved his hand.
Signifying his agreement to let her onto the boat.
While waving his hand, he murmured:
"Small frame, yet quite strong."
Su Yan turned and walked towards the inside of the boat.
Upon entering, she found the two rows of seats already filled with people.
Everyone was glad to have escaped danger.
They chatted in small groups, paying no attention to this sudden newcomer.
