Chapter 71 Ouyang Xinxi's Trouble



"This phoenix crown is so beautiful, I love it so much!" Tang Tang praised repeatedly.

"I'm glad Miss Tang likes it." Nan Wusi smiled brightly; she finally had a solution for her limited-time, limited-quantity system product.

"Manager Nan, name your price for this phoenix crown," Tang Tang said.

"Ten thousand taels of silver." Nanwu thought for a long time, but in the end, he didn't set the price too high.

"Okay." Tang Tang nodded readily, even thinking that Nan Wusi's price was too cheap.

"Miss Tang has lost quite a bit of weight. Please take her measurements again." Nan Wusi was in a good mood, having resolved a matter in her mind.

"Okay." Tangtang cooperated and measured the size as well.

“I will finish making the wedding dress as soon as possible. Miss Tang, you are already beautiful enough. There is no need to continue to lose weight. Too much of a good thing is bad.” Nan Wusi still advised.

"Okay, sure." Tang Tang nodded, understanding Nan Wusi's good intentions.

Shortly after Tangtang left, Yin'er suddenly stumbled and ran into Mengyifang.

"Miss Nan, please, please go and save our young lady." Yin'er knelt down in front of Nan Wusi as soon as she entered, crying.

"Yin'er, tell me quickly, what happened to your young lady?" Nan Wusi became anxious as soon as he heard that Ouyang Xinxi was in trouble.

Yin'er said quickly, "Today, my young lady was walking on the street as usual, but we were stopped by a group of people in an alley, and then she was kidnapped. Miss Nan, please go and save my young lady quickly, otherwise her reputation will be ruined if we are late."

Nan Wusi naturally knew the seriousness of the situation, but she couldn't panic now: "Yin'er, did you see the villain's face clearly?"

"No, these villains are all masked!" Yin'er cried loudly. She was so useless. Not only did she fail to protect her mistress, but she couldn't even see the villains' faces clearly.

"This is bad." Nan Wusi wasn't very familiar with the criminal gangs in the capital. She thought about it and realized that the only people she knew were Wang Qiang and his group, with whom she had dealt before.

Having no other option, Nan Wusi went to ask Wang Qiang for help, and then sent Hu Zi's mother to seek help from Xiao Yi. She figured that since Xiao Yi had been in the capital for so many years and frequently visited brothels, he must have come into contact with such people. As for Ye Zi, she sent her to find Nan Wufeng; a joint search by several groups should be faster.

"Yin'er, let's go." Nan Wusi said and quickly left Mengyi Workshop, heading towards the place where Wang Qiang and the others usually gathered.

Nan Wusi found Wang Qiang without any trouble. She asked him if he knew which forces in the capital usually engaged in kidnapping.

"Boss, I know one, but they have a lot of influence and are associated with many princes and nobles." Wang Qiang said cautiously, looking at Nan Wusi's unpleasant expression.

"What are you afraid of? It's not like I'm asking you to go and fight them head-on." Nan Wusi glared at Wang Qiang, having already seen through him as a bully who preyed on the weak.

“But normally, when they’re doing this kind of thing, they wouldn’t bring people to their headquarters,” Wang Qiang said with a bitter face.

Upon hearing this, Nan Wusi agreed and then asked, "Do you know where these people usually hide?"

"There are so many places where people hide, I didn't know that."

"What use are you?" Nan Wusi kicked him.

"Sister Nan, news came from His Highness Prince Yi that the person has been found in the abandoned City God Temple in the south of the city." At this moment, Hu Zi poked his head out from outside, looking somewhat frightened.

"Really?" Nan Wusi was overjoyed. His Highness Prince Yi was truly amazing.

In the end, Nan Wusi managed to get the location of that force's base from Wang Qiang, and this matter couldn't just be left unresolved.

"Tiger, do you know where the City God Temple is?" Nan Wusi certainly didn't know that there was such a place in the capital.

"I know, Sister Nan, come with me." Tiger nodded sensibly and led the way.

So Nan Wusi told Yin'er to wait at Mengyi Workshop, while she took Hu Zi and rushed to the City God Temple. By the time they arrived at the City God Temple, it was already getting dark.

At this moment, Xiao Yi and Nan Wufeng were both outside the City God Temple, and a row of guards from the Prince Yi's Mansion were guarding the entrance of the City God Temple.

Nan Wusi stepped forward and greeted Xiao Yi, saying, "Your Highness, thank you."

“Miss Nan, please don’t be so polite. Why don’t you go inside and take a look? We are all men, so it’s not very convenient for us,” Xiao Yi said gently and politely.

“Okay.” Nan Wusi then nodded to his elder brother and followed him into the dilapidated City God Temple.

As soon as Nan Wusi entered the City God Temple, he saw bloodstains on the ground that had not yet been cleaned up, and Ouyang Xinxi was curled up in a corner, her clothes torn and barely hanging on her body.

Nan Wusi walked over quietly, afraid of startling Ouyang Xinxi.

Nan Wusi slowly squatted down next to Ouyang Xinxi and reached out to pull her into his arms.

"Sisi..." Ouyang Xinxi could no longer hold back when she saw Nan Wusi. She called out in a hoarse voice, tears streaming down her face.

"Xinxi, don't be afraid, I'm here." Nan Wusi stroked Ouyang Xinxi's head tenderly.

“Sisi, my reputation is completely ruined, I…” Ouyang Xinxi’s eyes were red and her voice was hoarse.

“Xinxi, look at me. No one knows yet, so your reputation isn’t ruined. You must pull yourself together, understand?” Nan Wusi held Ouyang Xinxi’s head, making her look directly at him, and said each word clearly.

"Really? But, but I'm not clean anymore, won't Brother Nan despise me?" Ouyang Xinxi lowered her head.

"Why is it unclean? You were violated? Even if you were, it's not your fault. If my brother despises you because of this, then he's not worthy of your lifelong commitment." Nan Wusi never expected that Ouyang Xinxi cared most about her older brother Nan Wufeng's opinion.

Ouyang Xinxi shook her head and said softly, "I didn't. His Highness Prince Yi sent people to rescue me."

"Then what are you worried about? Remember, the fault doesn't lie with you, but with the person who did this to you." Nan Wusi continued, "Do you want to avenge this yourself?"

“Those people have already been executed on the spot by His Highness Prince Yi.” Ouyang Xinxi glanced subconsciously at the bloodstains on the ground.

"Xinxi, do you think this was an accident?" Nan Wusi didn't think so. The thugs in the capital wouldn't dare to kidnap someone on the street without being ordered around.

"Isn't that right?" Ouyang Xinxi panicked; she hadn't thought that far ahead.

"Shall we change our clothes first?" Nan Wusi didn't care about revealing herself at this moment and took out some clothes. She had already taken out a set of plain clothes from the system when she came in and saw that Ouyang Xinxi's clothes were disheveled.

"Okay." Ouyang Xinxi nodded and went behind the statue to change her clothes.

Suddenly, a commotion arose outside.
