Chapter 566: Help (1)

Luo Tan woke up once during the night.

Coincidentally, while Chen Xin and his group were searching for Shen Miao's whereabouts in Dingjing City, Luo Ling was watching Luo Tan and Gao Yang in the mansion, but suddenly received a tip from his men saying that a suspicious person seemed to be seen moving around in the west of the city. Thinking of Shen Miao, Luo Ling entrusted Luo Tan to Gao Yang and rushed to the west of the city with his men.

Only Luo Tan and Gao Yang were left in the room.

When Luo Tan woke up, there were only two maids in the room taking care of her. They were Bai Lu and Shuang Jiang, the daughters of Chen Miao. Seeing her awake, they were both very surprised and said, "My cousin is finally awake."

Luo Tan felt a little heavy, and when he lifted the quilt, he saw a white cloth wrapped around the bottom of his shirt. Bai Lu, believing Luo Tan was worried about the scars she would bear, consoled him, saying, "My dear cousin, you've survived a great ordeal and will surely be blessed in the future. The wound was quite severe that day, and Master and Madam were terrified. They sent for several doctors, but none of them could help. It was the Imperial Physician Gao in the palace who proved so skilled. Furthermore, he left a prescription. If you follow it, your scar will be so light it's practically invisible."

Luo Tan rubbed his forehead, perhaps remembering something, and asked, "How many days have I been unconscious?"

"My dear cousin, you have been unconscious for almost three days." Shuangjiang said.

"Three days?" Luo Tan was startled, and suddenly remembered something. He asked anxiously, "Where's my little cousin? Have you found her?"

Bailu and Shuangjiang looked gloomy and shook their heads.

Luo Tan's heart sank. She asked, "How are my aunt and uncle doing now?"

"The city is sealed off now. Master and Madam have been searching for the girl all day, but there's no news." Shuangjiang said, "We don't know how the girl is doing now."

"It's been three days. How come there is still no news after three days? Those people don't know any magic, can they make people disappear alive?" Luo Tan said excitedly.

Bailu and Shuangjiang looked at each other, but could only lower their heads and remain silent.

Luo Tan clenched her fists, her heart filled with anxiety. She remembered seeing with her own eyes those two thugs knock Shen Miao unconscious and take her to the carriage, and then... Luo Tan's heart moved, and she suddenly remembered what Shen Miao had said to her in the carriage.

"Remember, if you manage to escape, find a way to send a letter to Prince Rui's residence and say you have a business deal to make. The price will be negotiated later."

In the carriage, Shen Miao told Luo Tan that if anything happened, she could go to Prince Rui. Although Luo Tan was puzzled as to how Shen Miao and Prince Rui of Daliang could have a private relationship, he also knew Shen Miao's character well from their two years in Xiaochun City. She wouldn't do anything unnecessary. She stood up and tried to leave. Bai Lu and Shuang Jiang were startled by her and quickly came over to support her, saying, "What are you planning to do, cousin? We servants will handle it. You're not well yet, so don't reopen the wound."

When Luo Tan stood up, she felt weak. Perhaps she had been lying in bed for too long; her legs and feet felt weak. This irritated her, as she had always practiced martial arts and thought herself strong. However, she said, "I have something to do. Please leave me alone."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a strange male voice outside, saying, "Where are you going?"

Luo Tan raised his head and saw a young man walking in from outside. The man was dressed in white and looked quite elegant and handsome. He was holding a handkerchief in his hand and casually placed it on the small table. He took out a fan from his waist and waved it slowly, then asked again, "Where are you going?"

Luo Tan frowned: "Who is he?"
