As the year draws to a close, snowflakes are floating in the sky, falling in Yongning City. In this peaceful and tranquil Xiao Mansion, a troubling incident is quietly happening.
A month ago, everyone returned from the Penglai Fairy Island incident and returned to their original life tracks. Xiao Ning took Yourong Rouxue and Chu Qian on their journey home. Bai Ziyun had to return to the Shenxiao Sect to handle some affairs, and after that, he would take Yun Yao and others back to the Xiao Mansion.
Chu Yin chose to stay in Yao Chi. Before Chu Qingxian was busy with the affairs of Penglai Fairy Island, she and Leng Qingqiu were jointly responsible for handling the affairs of Yao Chi. Dongfang Qinyin and Song Yu also returned to the capital and devoted themselves to busy work.
This should have been a normal pace of life, but accidents happened one after another. Unexpectedly, Xiao Ning disappeared...
It all started a week ago. On a morning that couldn't be more ordinary, Xiyue came to call Xiao Ning for dinner as usual. She knocked on the door gently, the sound was crisp and rhythmic, as if she was playing a morning serenade. However, she knocked on the door for a long time, but no one opened the door for her.
Xiyue frowned slightly, and a trace of doubt surged in her heart. She began to knock harder and harder, and the sound became more urgent.
"Ning'er, are you in there?"
Her voice echoed in the silent corridor, but received no response.
At this moment, the door of the room next to her opened, and Rong Rouxue came out sleepily. She rubbed her eyes, with a hint of sleepiness on her face, as if she had just been awakened from a sweet dream.
"What's wrong? Why are you so noisy so early in the morning?" There was a hint of dissatisfaction in Rong Rouxue's voice.
Xiyue tilted her head in confusion and asked, "Sister Rouxue, didn't you sleep in the same room with Ning'er last night?"
You Rong Rouxue scratched her head and answered in bewilderment, "I haven't slept with Ning'er for several days. This brat has been acting weird lately. I don't know what he's up to."
She scratched her head and complained. Although she didn't know what "plane" meant, she found that Xiao Ning also liked to say this word, so she got used to saying it.
After hearing this, Xiyue's doubts grew even more. She turned around again, staring at Xiao Ning's room, as if she wanted to see what was going on inside through the closed door.
Without a moment's hesitation, she stretched out her hand and pushed the tightly closed door open. With a "bang", the door suddenly opened with a dull sound.
Xiyue and Yourong Rouxue walked into the room, and their eyes quickly swept through every corner of the room. However, to their surprise, Xiao Ning was not in the room. The room was empty, with only a messy bed and a few randomly placed clothes, which looked particularly deserted.
They looked around, trying to find Xiao Ning. Xiyue's eyes revealed a trace of anxiety. She paced back and forth in the room, stopping from time to time to carefully observe everything around her. Yourong Rouxue stood there, frowning, thinking about where Xiao Ning might go.
Just as they were wondering, Rong Rouxue suddenly seemed to step on something. She looked down and saw an envelope on the ground. She picked up the envelope in confusion and opened it. Xiyue also hurried forward to take a look. Inside was a piece of rice paper with something written in beautiful handwriting.
Xiyue and Yourong Rouxue's eyes fell on the rice paper at the same time. Their eyes gradually widened and their faces showed astonishment. After a long time, they suddenly shouted in unison:
“It’s terrible!”
With that, the two of them rushed out of the room without hesitation. Their steps were hurried and rapid, as if there was something urgent waiting for them to deal with.
In the kitchen, Xiao Ding was sitting at the dining table, reading a novel carefully, Song Junwan was busy in the inner room, and Honghong and Liu Yan were serving food. As for Chu Qian, she walked into the room slowly, rubbing her eyes, and looked like she had just woken up.
When she saw the people in the house, she said in a delicate voice, "That brat hasn't come yet. What's wrong with this kid? Why does he like to sleep in so much recently?"
After hearing her complaints, Song Junwan explained, "Ning'er must be busy these days. I noticed that he was always busy in the house during this period. Sometimes he didn't come out for the whole day."
Chu Qian was even more puzzled after hearing this. At this moment, there was a burst of hurried footsteps outside. Rong Rouxue and Xiyue came here quickly, holding a piece of rice paper in their hands. Rong Rouxue shouted:
"Something happened! Ning'er ran away from home!"
"What!"
When everyone heard this, they immediately turned their heads to look at her and shouted in unison. Chu Qian even stepped forward and grabbed the rice paper to look at the contents on it.
"Sister Rouxue, mother, I have some things I need to deal with alone. I will probably be away for ten days or half a month. I will try to come back as soon as possible, don't worry. Xiao Ning."
After Chu Qian finished reading the content, anger instantly rose in her eyes.
"You little bastard, that's enough! You run away from home every day, every day! You are getting more and more outrageous!"
As she said that, she hurried out to find Xiao Ning, and Rong Rouxue also walked out with her. At this moment, Xiao Ding suddenly stopped them and said:
"Do you know where he went?"
There was a hint of doubt and worry in his voice. Chu Qian stopped, looked back at Xiao Ding, and said:
"How should I know where he went! This bastard is always like this, he just runs away without saying a word!"
"Then how are you going to find it? The world is so big, how long will it take you to find it?"
