At this thought, the Old Master called out for the mansion's steward and gave him a few instructions.
Soon, everyone in the Marquis's Mansion had returned to their respective courtyards, anxiously awaiting news from outside.
「In Spring Lotus Garden.」
Xiaodie had just returned. When she learned the news, her face instantly turned deathly pale, and tears streamed down her cheeks.
Not daring to linger outside, she hurried back to Spring Lotus Garden to tell Chen Yi what had happened.
After searching for some time, she finally heard a noise from within the study.
"Young Master, Young Master, it's terrible! The Young Miss... The Young Miss... *sob*... she's been taken by bad men!"
She anxiously pushed open the door, only to see "Chen Yi" sitting at the desk. He forced a smile.
"I already know. For now... for now, let's just wait for news from the Old Master and the others."
"But... but..."
"Listen to me."
