Finally found Xiao Si.
"Chenâer, let me hold Xiao Si."
He stretched out his arms, and Yun Wanchen walked out of the cellar, handing Yun Wanqing over.
Yun Wanqing immediately looked at Yun Zhan with sparkling eyes, reporting her situation to him.
[Seventh Uncle, Iâm fine, everything is okay...]
Yun Zhan curved his lips into a light smile, his worry completely eased.
"Our Xiao Si truly has a guardian angel. Rest assured, anyone who dared to harm you, Seventh Uncle and your brothers wonât let them go, we will avenge you."
[Yeah, thank you Seventh Uncle, thank you brothers.]
[But Iâm so hungry, I want to go home.]
Her stomach was painfully empty, and Yun Wanqing pouted, desperate for milk.
Yun Wanchen immediately took her back into his arms, and looking at Yun Zhan, he said, "Seventh Uncle, mother is still worrying back at the mansion, Iâll take little sister back to find her."
"And Yeâer is still down there guarding those crooks, please send a team of guards down to assist Yeâer and bring those people back."
"We left marks in the tunnel, the guards can follow those marks, it takes about the time of a single incense stick to get there."
"Alright."
After giving his instructions, Yun Wanchen carried Yun Wanqing, using his Qinggong to hurry towards the Duke Ning Mansion.
From here to the Duke Ning Mansion, itâs about twenty li or so.
At Yun Wanchenâs speed, it would take about a quarter of an hour to arrive.
Although it was already late at night at the Duke Ning Mansion, the lights were still bright.
Lady Yun stood at the doorway, looking into the vast night with a sorrowful expression. Having cried too long, her eyes were bloodshot and swollen like walnuts.
Beside her stood Yun Wanyao, her face also not looking well, and behind them were a group of maids and women.
"Itâs been so long, why havenât they come back yet?"
Lady Yun murmured softly, and as she spoke, tears began to flow again uncontrollably.
Yun Wanyao quickly comforted her, "Mother, little sister will be fine, she must be fine. Perhaps father and the others have already found her, letâs wait a little longer..."
As she spoke, Yun Wanyaoâs voice choked up, heavy with sobs.
She took a deep breath, finding it hard to continue.
Although everyone in the family was out looking, even Sister Yin Shuang had brought people to help search, Haojing is so vast, finding one person isnât easy.
And little sister is so young, who knows into whose hands she fell or what hardships she might suffer.
The more Yun Wanyao thought about it, the more distressed she became. If she could, she would rather face these things in place of her little sister.
"Itâs the Princely Heir, the Princely Heir is back..."
Suddenly, a little maid exclaimed softly, and at these words, Lady Yun and Yun Wanyao were both startled, quickly looking over to see Yun Wanchen approaching in the night.
"Mother, Yaoâer~"
Yun Wanchen leaped through the air lightly, landing in front of everyone with Yun Wanqing in his arms.
He had intended to go directly to Wanâan Garden, but seeing a group of people guarding the mansion gate from afar, guessed it was his mother, and came over.
Lady Yunâs gaze left him, urgently looking at Yun Wanqing as if she came back to life in an instant. She took a deep breath and reached out to hold her.
"Quickly, Chenâer, quickly let me see Xiao Si."
Seeing Lady Yun, Yun Wanqing felt warmth in her heart, and she actively reached out to hug her.
[Mother, Iâm back, sorry to make you worry.]
[Oh dear, why are motherâs and sisterâs eyes so swollen like this? It seems after I disappeared, mother and sister have cried a lot, must have been really frightened.]
[Oh, a deep sense of guilt suddenly arose in me.]
Seeing their swollen, walnut-like eyes, Yun Wanqing felt inexplicably guilty.
"Xiao Si, Iâm sorry, itâs motherâs fault, I didnât look after you properly, itâs all my fault..."
Lady Yun held her tightly, her cheek against hers, crying again.
Yun Wanqingâs heart was about to melt from her crying, so she quickly reached out her small arms to wipe her tears.
[Mother, donât cry, Iâm fine, not a bit of harm done, look at me, Iâm perfectly okay.]
[Also, this isnât your fault at all, truly. With our familyâs prominence, itâs inevitable to be targeted.]
[Youâve watched over me very well, but what Iâm more curious about is, how exactly was I taken?]
[Iâve seen our house, the security is very tight, logically speaking, those dummies couldnât possibly get in.]
[So, how exactly was I taken?]
