At midnight, on Feifeng Mountain, two men in black headed straight for Cen Xi's courtyard.
There were no lights in Cen Xi's courtyard; it was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Shen Jinchen quietly entered the room, lifted the corner of the quilt, and, not finding the person who had been troubling him for the past few days, quickly slipped away from the courtyard.
Feng Qin, who was waiting on the outskirts, was surprised to see her young master come out so quickly, and the words that were about to come out blurted out:
"Young master, how did you finish your business so quickly?"
"They've escaped! Release the Thousand-Attracting Butterflies to find them!"
Shen Jinchen glanced at him and said.
"yes!"
Feng Qin nodded knowingly; he wouldn't pry like that idiot Shang Se.
Obeying orders is the best way to please your master.
A quarter of an hour later, Qian Yindie landed on Feng Qin's hand.
“Young master, we can’t find the approximate location of the guiding butterfly. It’s highly likely that the girl is using something to evade the tracking object, just like before. Only after that thing loses its effectiveness can we find her.”
Feng Qin looked into Shen Jinchen's dark, inky eyes and forced herself to speak.
"I've heard that the Hidden Sect's Jade Link has such an effect, and it can probably last for more than a month?"
Shen Jinchen gazed at the starry night sky and murmured to himself, unsure whether he was asking himself or Feng Qin.
"Young Master, time... time has been too long, let's return to the capital!"
Feng Qin closed her eyes briefly, then opened them and forced herself to speak.
"Isn't he twenty-six?"
Shen Jinchen didn't answer but asked a question instead.
"Um!"
"If I were to get married at the normal age, wouldn't I already have kids running around by now?"
Shen Jinchen raised an eyebrow and looked at Feng Qin.
"What do you mean by that, young master?"
Feng Qin broke out in a cold sweat.
"Send me a message: what I decide is not open to discussion!"
After saying these words, Shen Jinchen used his light-footed skill to leave Feifeng Mountain.
...
Ever since Cen Xi was kidnapped by that scoundrel, she knew that he would come after her sooner or later.
So when Yu Lianhuan turned white, she immediately changed her appearance and left Feifeng Mountain.
At the same time, she also wrote to her master to ask what kind of sect's acupressure technique was so magical that it could imprison her for five days.
After settling down the mountain and staying at an inn in Shangyang City, Cen Xi thought that her master, that old man, might not know which sects had such sects. So she wrote another letter and sent it by eagle to her grandmaster at the bottom of the cliff.
The letter stated that she suspected the person who kidnapped her was likely Emperor Taizu, and asked him to provide guidance on how to break the abduction.
Otherwise, she would have been killed by the enemy's arrows before she even drew her bow, and then what good would it have done to stop them?
As for whether this person is Emperor Taizu, it seems she will have to be shameless again next time and pull down his pants.
The last person had shocked her so much that she was completely stunned and didn't even notice whether he had a birthmark on his thigh.
Moreover, after that, she kept having strange dreams that disturbed her mind.
If she hadn't been so certain, she would never have dated a man in her life.
She almost thought she had fallen in love with that scoundrel who had offended her.
To prevent such a thing from happening, she must find a way to subdue him as soon as possible, confirm his identity, and then kill him.
Then her mission in this world is complete.
From now on, she can live the life she wants freely, and no one will tell her that if she doesn't complete the mission, she will be punished by heaven.
Why is it so lively today?
After Cen Xi got up, there was a commotion downstairs, with many people running in one direction, as if there was a great commotion.
Cen Xi has always been very curious, so while the waiter was serving the food, she asked a question out of curiosity.
"Alas! Today is the day of the selection of a husband for the second young lady of the famous wealthy Wen family in Shangyang City. Young master, you are handsome and dashing, so you must not go out on the street today. Otherwise, it will be bad if the second young lady of the Wen family takes a fancy to you."
The waiter sighed and explained to Cen Xi.
He portrayed a good deed as if a bully had snatched someone away.
"Why do you say that? Does the second young lady of the Wen family have a hidden illness?"
Cen Xi was very puzzled, so she asked.
"She doesn't have any hidden illnesses, but she lacks any of the demeanor of a proper young lady. She wanders around like a street thug all day, often getting into fights with the playboys of Shangyang City. Her reputation is terrible, and her family can't control her. She's already twenty-one and still not married."
"So the Wen family got anxious and chose this auspicious day to throw an embroidered ball at the Guangxiu Tower to choose a husband."
The waiter explained as he set out the food Cen Xi had ordered.
"Oh? I see. That's interesting! I'll go check it out later."
The more complicated the waiter's explanation, the more interested Cen Xi became.
"Oh dear! Young master, I advised you, but you wouldn't listen. If you really get the chance, don't blame me for not warning you. I don't think you're short of money, so why get involved in this mess?"
The waiter, exasperated, offered another word of advice.
"It's alright, you go ahead with your work. I promise I'll make sure she doesn't take a liking to me. By the way, you've described this Miss Wen so badly, so why are so many people still flocking to Guangxiu Tower?"
Cen Xi waved his hand dismissively, but seeing the waiter walk to the door, he couldn't help but call out to him again and ask another question.
"Because the Wen family announced that as long as the man the Second Miss Wen takes a fancy to agrees to marry her, the Wen family will give her a house, two shops, and a thousand taels of gold as dowry."
"With such a good thing, no matter whether Miss Wen is round or flat, many people will try to snatch her away."
The waiter explained helplessly.
"Oh, money really can make the devil turn the millstone. The Wen family has really pulled out all the stops. Hey, such a good opportunity, why don't you go? If you were the Wen family's son-in-law, would you still need to be here serving tea and water?"
Cen Xi ignored the fact that people didn't like her and stopped the waiter to ask.
"Oh, young master, if you want to join in the fun, then go ahead. Look at my status. Even if I'm from a merchant family, people still care about status, right? Besides, that second young lady of the Wen family is so arrogant and domineering. Would she even look at someone like me? And even if she did, wouldn't I have to treat her like royalty?"
"Hey! I must be crazy to join in this fun!"
After saying this, the waiter quickly ran off, and after going downstairs, he didn't forget to glance at Cen Xi's room. His eyes were full of "You're crazy" looks.
“Interesting. This lady… this young master wants to go and see what kind of eccentric woman she is, that she doesn’t even like the waiter in this shop and won’t even join in the fun.”
Cen Xi shook the fan she had somehow acquired and muttered with a smile.
Although the second daughter of the Wen family has a bad reputation, the Wen family is wealthy; they not only have money, but also a mansion and two shops. While the waiter may not be envious, many others are!
So even at noon, the area downstairs of the Guangxiu building was still crowded with people.
Even those playboys who had always been at odds with Miss Wen came down to join in the fun.
