“What are you going to buy for Sister Lian? Let’s go,” Ye Liu said after he parked the bullock-cart.
If he knew what he wanted to buy, they could go there straight away and wouldn’t need to waste any time.
At this time, Ye Mo spoke up and said, “Liu, you go with him. I will wait here on the bullock-cart.”
He wanted to calculate the recent items so he wasn’t going to accompany Li Wazi to buy his things.
Li Wazi didn’t have any objections to him not going and he said to Ye Liu, “Liu, let’s go to the tailor shop.”
He felt the clothes his mother and wife usually wore were really too old. He always wanted to buy something for them but they never let him. They said something about how they should save money to renovate the house and how Little Huzi would need money to go to school once he grows up!
“Okay! Mo, you wait here,” Ye Liu said to Ye Mo, and then went towards the tailor shop with Li Wazi.
Ye Mo looked at their backs as they left and then continued reading the account book on the bullock-cart.
On the other side, after Little Tian returned to the upstairs of the backyard, she searched for traces of Wang Xiangyun. “My lady… my lady, where are you?”
“My lady…” She frowned and felt a bad premonition.
Ming Yan was also very quick. After he arrived in the backyard, he shouted towards Little Tian, “You don’t need to look for her here. Your lady ran onto the streets with a strange expression on her face!”
Ming Yan immediately turned and walked away after he conveyed the message. They were about to start their journey back to the capital and he didn’t have the time to accompany her to look for Wang Xiangyun.
When Little Tian heard him, she immediately ran down, chased after Ming Yan, and pulled on his sleeve. She asked anxiously, “What did you say? My lady went onto the street? When did this happen? Tell me clearly!”
“I advise that you best go quickly and look for your lady. Otherwise, don’t regret it if something happens!” Ming Yan flung the hand Little Tian had on his sleeve and left without any hesitation.
He even muttered softly when he left, She did something despicable again. This time, she ended up harming herself when she wanted to harm someone else!
Little Tian’s eyes widened when she heard him. She would, of course, understand what Ming Yan’s last sentence meant. The bad premonition in her heart became even more intense. Both her legs started to tremble and she immediately ran outside. While she was running, she also called their servants to follow her.
She prayed in her heart, My lady, you must not get into an accident!
Wang Xiangyun’s face was like a flower blossom in the rain. From the time she started running to when she walked slowly later, her expression was full of constant absent-minded sorrow…
When the pedestrians on the street saw how this beautiful woman’s face was full of tears, they all felt sorry for her. They wondered what it was that she was so upset about.
An old lady walked up to her and asked out of concern, “Young lady, why are you crying so sadly? I think it is best if you go back home soon.”
She felt that Wang Xiangyun walking around aimlessly like this was not safe. Moreover, her family would also be worried.
However, it was as if Wang Xiangyun didn’t hear her. She ignored her and continued walking forward.
She didn’t watch where she was going and after walking around for a while, she arrived on a relatively quiet street. She also didn’t realize three suspicious-looking punks were tailing her.
“Bro, that lady there looks quite pretty. Through all my time growing up, I’ve never seen such a pretty lady before!”
“Yeah, she even looks good even though she is crying. This really makes me want to go comfort her.”
The punk who’d been called “bro” laughed even more vulgarly then the two younger ones. “Yeah, such a pretty young lady. The three of us should definitely go and comfort her.”
The three of them happened to see the crying and absent-minded Wang Xiangyun walking around when they came out from the gambling den. Moreover, she was walking towards a secluded area.
