The man chuckled coldly, "Do as I say, I'm your superior."
Cheng Xiao Kui nodded and said, "Yes. I will definitely do as you say, but... will I really be able to see Si Muyang? That's impossible."
The man said, "You'll find out tomorrow! You can leave now."
Cheng Xiao Kui wanted to ask something more, but the man had already told her to leave.
She had no choice but to obediently turn around and leave. She walked quickly, almost at a jog pace, and disappeared into an alley.
After she entered the alley, she immediately turned around, hid at the corner of the alley, and looked towards the big tree.
Her pupils widened in astonishment, and in the darkness, she vaguely saw the man's figure walking further and further away at the edge of her vision until it disappeared from her sight.
But the key point is not that the man's figure disappeared, but that the man's figure looks like Si Muyang!
They really look alike!
Suddenly, the image of the figure who had walked past her courtyard gate during the day flashed through her mind.
She was certain that the two people were the same person!
Her mind was a jumbled mess of thoughts. This so-called lord looked so much like Si Muyang.
And this man actually wants her to go after Si Muyang tomorrow? How is that possible?
She turned around and walked towards her home. After a few steps, she suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Could it be that this man's face looks very similar to Si Muyang's?
Although it was just her wild guess, the thought still made her feel incredibly shocked!
How could she have such a thought?
How can there be people in this world who look exactly alike?
Even though she and Cheng Chunqiu look very similar, people who know them well can still tell the differences between them.
She silently repeated what the man had told her: "We'll find out tomorrow."
Tomorrow is crucial if we want to unravel the mystery and get close to the head of the secret service!
She quickened her pace to get back to her home, climbing over the outer wall of the yard as before.
In order to do everything exactly like Cheng Chun Kui, so that the spies could not find any flaws in her actions.
The two puppies were running around obediently in the yard. When they saw Cheng Xiao Kui return, they wagged their tails and rushed towards her.
Cheng Xiaokui gently rubbed the heads of the two puppies to make them sleep peacefully before returning to her room to sleep as well.
She tossed and turned in bed, thinking about Si Muyang and tomorrow. Fortunately, she had an amazing ability to fall asleep, and despite her many thoughts, she eventually drifted off.
When she woke up again the next day, she was woken up by her alarm clock.
The main purpose was to go to the cooperative with the aunties and grandmas to complete the task assigned to her by the sovereign.
When she finished washing up, the aunties and grandmas opened the gate to the courtyard; they had the key to the big iron lock on the gate.
Cheng Xiao Kui looked at her face in the mirror and touched up her makeup in detail.
As for her makeup, she put the dough, paint, and cosmetics in her small military green crossbody bag.
These things must be carried with her at all times, because she never knows when, if there's a problem with her makeup, she can quickly touch it up so as not to reveal her identity.
She pushed open the door and walked out of the room, greeting the aunties and grandmas.
Aunt Wang said, "Chun Kui, you're up so early again? Something so big happened at your home. You should sleep a little longer."
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "Aunt Wang, I'm fine. My mind is a mess, and I can't sleep even when I'm lying down. I don't know how my sister is doing now."
Aunt Wang said, "Don't worry, didn't Dr. Song say he's fine? Maybe the case will be closed one day and he'll come back."
Cheng Xiaokui said, "That's what I think too. But I just can't control myself. Aunt Wang, how about I go to the cooperative with you to buy things today?"
Aunt Wang said, "Sure, you can come with us and relax!"
Aunt Wang took two older women to the cooperative to buy things, while the remaining four older women stayed behind to wash all the dishes from the previous night.
By the time they brought back all the meat and chicken carcasses they needed for the day, the dishes and utensils at home were all cleaned up, and all the ingredients were brought back, so everyone could start skewering and braising, and also making roasted potato chips.
Cheng Xiaokui followed Aunt Wang to the cooperative, looking around as she walked.
Last night, His Majesty asked her to pursue Si Muyang, but where is Si Muyang?!
If she can't find him, she can't chase after him!
She followed Aunt Wang into the cooperative, the largest one in their area. It sold everything imaginable; you could buy almost anything you wanted.
The aunties and grandmas, familiar with the place, went directly to the counters selling chicken frames, pig heads, and pig tails, and paid directly.
Cheng Xiaokui had already reached an agreement with the sales clerk at the counter. The clerk would leave the goods she needed each day, and her people could take the goods without having to wait in line as long as they came, paid, and paid.
Salespeople also enjoy doing this kind of bulk sales, as it's much more satisfying than selling by the pound or half a pound.
Moreover, and most importantly, Cheng Xiao Kui would give them all sorts of gifts during holidays and festivals.
Don't underestimate these small gifts; these socks, fabrics, gloves, handkerchiefs, and yarn are all necessities for daily life, and some of them are even hard to find.
Just as Cheng Xiaokui was watching the sales clerk pack goods into net bags for them, she suddenly noticed out of the corner of her eye that someone was standing at the entrance of the cooperative.
A familiar figure caught her eye, and she turned around in surprise to see Si Muyang standing not far from her.
She exclaimed in surprise, "Si Muyang! Si Muyang!"
Si Muyang was wearing his usual military uniform, standing in the sunlight. His whole body was bathed in sunlight, forming a halo around him.
Cheng Xiaokui looked at Si Muyang in disbelief. She couldn't control her feet and instinctively ran towards Si Muyang.
The aunties and grandmas were also surprised to see Si Muyang here.
But Dr. Song told them that Si Muyang had been seriously ill. What was going on?
Aunt Wang tried to call out to Cheng Chun Kui, but Cheng Chun Kui had already run out.
Aunt Li said, "Aunt Wang, why did you call Chun Kui? They finally met, so you can talk about Xiao Kui's situation."
Aunt Wang said, "But...but didn't Dr. Song say that Si Muyang is still hospitalized?"
Aunt Li said, "They might be discharged today!"
Aunt Wang shook her head; she simply couldn't figure it out.
After buying everything, she went back to Cheng Xiaokui's house with her aunts and grandmas to work.
When Cheng Xiaokui chased after Si Muyang out of the cooperative, she saw him walking straight ahead.
Si Muyang walked very fast, like a soldier on a forced march. No matter how fast she walked, Si Muyang was always ahead of her, and she couldn't catch up at all.
After walking on the street for a while, Si Muyang walked into a small alley.
Cheng Xiao Kui ran inside as well, her mind filled with thoughts of Si Mu Yang.
The smile on Si Muyang's face was etched into her mind.
She kept replaying Si Muyang's smile in her mind, but that smile... something was wrong...
