Tang Qingchen fiddled with the teacup in his hand.

Xiao Yichen was not in a hurry and just waited quietly.

"It's nothing special, actually. Yesterday, in that alley, I ran into a group of human traffickers."

"Are you okay? Do you want to catch them? I'll send out the guards right away and I promise to help you find them."

Xiao Yichen quickly interrupted Tang Qingchen. For some reason, his heart ached when he heard that Tang Qingchen was in danger.

Tang Qingchen smiled and shook his head. "What could possibly happen to me? There's no need to look for them. They're all dead."

Tang Qingchen spoke calmly. She had let it go and it was all in the past. Why should she be upset over a bunch of scum?

"It's good that they died. Even if they didn't die, I would still arrest them. These scums deserve to die."

Xiao Yichen said viciously.

This menacing look would be perfect if he stood up and shouted, "I will never forgive evil."

He is not stupid. He can figure it out by connecting the dots. Tang Qingchen had said before that this matter was related to him, but the connection was not that strong.

Why do I say that? Because his father is the mayor of the city. His father bears a certain responsibility for the appearance of human traffickers in the city, but his father is a law enforcer, not a human trafficker. At most, he has failed to supervise properly.

So he just needed to draw a clear line, even though he really had nothing to do with that group of human traffickers.

He was afraid that Tang Qingchen would misunderstand that this matter was related to their family. In fact, as a noble, he had heard of such things before, but he was sure that their family was not involved in such things.

"Don't worry, even though they're dead, I'll go back and ask my dad to catch the person behind this. They won't be able to get away."

He believed that his father would agree, and Tang Qingchen was qualified.

Tang Qingchen shook her head. She could feel that Xiao Yichen was sincere, but there were too many unfair things in the world. Could she take care of them all?

This matter must be taken care of, but if you investigate further and see other evil deeds, will you intervene? But this is a chain of interests, not only in this aspect, but also in other industries, not only in Nottingham, but also in other cities, and even the entire empire.

So there was no need at all, she just wanted to put an end to her actions.

"That's unnecessary. Those people are dead, and I'm too lazy to pursue the matter further. I just don't know if that group has captured other children. They may not have been sold yet. I'd like to ask for your help. Find their lair and rescue any children who are being held captive."

Tang Qingchen sighed and said, "I'm sorry, this is all I can do."

Xiao Yichen wanted to say something, but his ability was limited. The girl in front of him saw it clearly. He could continue digging, but there was no need. It was either a pile of rotten fish and shrimp, or granite that he could not dig out.

He didn't brag, just nodded slightly, but he was determined to go back and find his father. He couldn't control other places and had no right to control them, but in Nottingham, he believed that there was nothing he couldn't do.

"Oh, by the way, their ice cream is also very delicious, and can be made into different shapes. Do you want to try it?"

Seeing that Tang Qingchen was not in high spirits, Xiao Yichen quickly changed the subject.

"Forget it, forget it. Maybe next time. I've almost finished eating. I'm going back first. Please help me look for it. If you can find it, let me know."

Tang Qingchen was smiling, but Xiao Yichen could see that his smile was a little forced.

"At least I'm going back now, so go slow."

Although Xiao Yichen really wanted to send the girl in front of him back, he knew that what he needed to do now was to do things quickly.

"Well, you go first." Tang Qingchen nodded, then picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Okay, I'm leaving now."

Xiao Yichen got up and left, finishing the tasks he was assigned first. There would be plenty of time to take care of the rest later, so there was no need to rush.

Looking at Xiao Yichen's hurriedly leaving back through the window, Tang Qingchen sighed.

"Desire is so unpredictable."

Tang Qingchen didn't want to go back for the time being. This position was just right for him to get some sunlight, so he leaned against the chair and took a nap for a while.

No one came to disturb Tang Qingchen during this time. When Tang Qingchen opened his eyes, it was already afternoon. However, Tang Qingchen's mental state had recovered a lot after this sleep.

Tang got up early in the morning and stretched. The table had already been cleared. She felt embarrassed to sit there for so long, so she decided to go back and not delay other people's business.

When she was about to leave, the boss called her.

"Miss, please wait a moment."

The boss was a middle-aged lady with a kind smile on her face.

"What's the matter? Could it be that Xiao Yichen didn't pay and asked me to pay for it?"

Tang Qingchen was half joking, mainly because she didn't quite understand what the boss lady wanted her to do.

"You're joking. The Young City Lord has already paid for it. He just specifically asked me to bring you a bowl of their specialty ice cream before you leave. I saw you were sleeping, so I didn't disturb you. Just wait a moment, the ice cream will be ready soon."

The middle-aged lady's words were very appropriate and impeccable. This was a special instruction from the young city lord. No one had ever seen the young city lord bring any girl here to eat.

"Hey, this guy is quite thoughtful. Go ahead and get me a few more. Give me three, no, four."

Tang Qingchen suddenly remembered that there was still a little burden, so he decided to get a few more for them to try. As for whether they could be dissolved or not, it should be no problem if he could maintain it with his soul power.

But I wouldn't be so stupid, I have space equipment.

"Okay, Miss. Please wait a moment."

The ice cream was ready very quickly. Although there were many customers and it seemed a bit busy, Tang Qingchen was very fast.

Tang Qingchen smiled. This is the role of status and identity. Some people, or most people, spend their whole lives chasing after this.

"Okay, Miss. Take your time. There's some heat preservation equipment inside, but it's still recommended to eat it as soon as possible. It will melt if left out for too long."

The boss handed four exquisite small boxes to Tang Qingchen. I have to say, they looked pretty good.

Tang Qingchen directly opened one, which was really creative. Girls all like such fancy things, and of course, Tang Qingchen herself is no exception.

The other three were put away directly.

The proprietress was shocked. What was this person's background? How could she possess a soul guide with storage? This item was extremely precious, and only the most prominent people in the entire Notting City could possess it. Who was this little girl's background?

But she didn't say anything more. In their line of work, it is taboo to inquire about the privacy of customers. But judging from the appearance of the young city lord, he must be from a prominent background.

Tang Qingchen ignored the boss lady's surprise. He had to say that this ice cream was really good. This shop was very thoughtful. Usually, things that look good don't taste good. This one was really good-looking and delicious. It was very good.
