The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, he licked his lips in satisfaction, pursed his lips and murmured softly:

"Lan'er, your lips are so sweet, so sweet..."

Hearing his stomach growling, Luo Lan couldn't help but stick out her tongue, "I'm sorry, I made you hungry all day today. I was really worried about Xiaozhi..."

When she mentioned Xiaozhi, she lowered her head with some sadness.

"What happened to Xiaozhi? What happened to him?"

Leng Yu frowned and asked. Although he had not met Xiao Zhi yet, he had been curious about this child since he heard Luo Lan mention him every day.

“He lost…”

Luo Lan breathed a sigh of relief. "In order to keep business for our clinic, he went to Changshoutang to attract patients. He was an enemy of his peers, and someone disliked him and arrested him."

She didn't dare mention that she was almost killed. If he knew, he would definitely be worried.

She continued:

"This is also my fault. I shouldn't have let a child do such a thing. Alas!"

Seeing that she was blaming herself, Leng Yu looked at her solemnly and comforted her:

"Lan'er, this isn't entirely your fault. Xiaozhi's intelligence is no different from others. Even if you don't let him go, he'll secretly go there if he sees Huichuntang's business isn't doing well."

Having said this, he added with a serious expression:

"In fact, Changshoutang is not an ordinary clinic. It is nominally run by a man named Nie Changan, but the real owner behind it is Bai Tiancheng, the chief physician of the Imperial Hospital. Bai Tiancheng was promoted by the dog prince..."

He also liked to call Leng Yun the Dog Prince like Luo Lan did. He felt that Leng Yun was indeed like a dog, and a mad dog at that.

Hearing him say this, Luo Lan's face suddenly became solemn. She held her chin and pondered.

"Hearing what you said, this matter is not easy to handle. The Changshou Hall must not be as simple as it seems. No wonder the people in the Changshou Hall dare to be so bold."

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Thinking about how she was almost killed, a wave of sadness welled up in her heart.

If that's the case, then Ali and Agang are just chess pieces used by them to kill someone else. If they go back now to face their fate, wouldn't that be tantamount to walking into a trap? They will definitely not let them come out alive.

Thinking of this, her heart suddenly rose to her throat.

Seeing that she looked unhappy, Leng Yu hurriedly said softly:

"Go ahead and do your thing, I'm fine, I'm not hungry yet.

Although Luo Lan was anxious, he also knew that he was comforting him. How could a person not feel hungry after not eating for a day? Moreover, he had eaten porridge in the morning.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Ayu's voice came, "Princess, the meal is here."

"Got it, wait a moment."

Luo Lan responded to a call from outside the door, then put his hands under his armpits again and said:

"Let's do it together. You go to the bed first. The ground is cold."

Leng Yu held on to the ground with both hands. She was already exhausted and he couldn't cause her any more trouble, so he used three times more strength than usual, even using up all his strength.

With the joint efforts of both of them, Leng Yu's butt finally touched the edge of the bed. Luo Lan breathed a long sigh of relief. He rubbed his body towards the bed and sat against the wall. She then gave him a cushion to support his back and quickly walked towards the door.

Dinner was simple, consisting of rice and stir-fried bean sprouts. Luo Lan placed the food in front of him and instructed:

"Eat first. When you're done, bend down and put your empty bowl on this stool. Don't get down again. If you're tired, lie down and sleep. Don't wait for me."

Leng Yu knew that Xiao Zhi couldn't be found, and she was very worried and had no appetite, so she didn't persuade her to eat, but said with concern:

"Go ahead! Take care of yourself."

He couldn't help in any way, and apart from not causing her any trouble, he could only say a few words of comfort.

Luo Lan was really worried about Xiao Zhi's news, so she quickly came out of Leng Yu's room and went straight to the front hall.

At this time, the servants in the house did not dare to go to rest and were all waiting here. Liu Mei had cried until she had no tears left, and Ahong kept comforting her by her side.

When everyone saw Luo Lan coming, they all stood up and looked at her, waiting for her to speak.

Luo Lan glanced at everyone and said softly:

"Ah Hou, Ah Hong, and Ah Cai stay here, and the rest of you go and rest. We'll continue the search tomorrow during the day."

It's useless for so many people to stay here anyway, and if everyone doesn't get enough rest, no one will have the energy tomorrow.

After hearing this, everyone retreated.

Luo Lan breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Liu Meir with red eyes and said to Ah Hong:

"Take Mei'er to sleep for a while, and I'll tell you when I have news."

"No, I won't sleep. I'm going to wait here for news."

Liu Meir pursed her lips and shook her head vigorously, "How can I sleep? If Xiaozhi doesn't come back, I will just sleep forever."

At this point, her tears began to flow quietly. Although she tried hard to control herself and not make any sound, it made people even more anxious.

Several people just sat there, waiting...

Luo Lan made up her mind that if Agang and his sister didn't come back by midnight, she would not wait any longer.

This huge hall was unusually quiet at this time. Before midnight, hurried footsteps were heard outside. Several people who were silent in the room suddenly perked up and looked towards the door.

Ali was breathing heavily and stumbling quickly to the front of the crowd. Seeing that her breathing was unstable and her face was pale, A Cai hurried over to support her.

Ali's forehead was covered in sweat. She looked at Luo Lan and said in a weak voice:

"Princess, please save my brother. He's been locked up. He risked his life to rescue me. I'm here to tell you something. Xiaozhi... Xiaozhi is being held captive in the backyard of Changshou Hall, in a woodshed. Tonight, they're going to... to kill him..."
