Seeing Chen Yuhong's erratic and frantic movements, Ning Xi'er, who had been feeling a bit sleepy...
Hearing Ning Wei's words, he suddenly perked up.
A hint of coldness appeared on his lips as he looked at the group of people in front of him.
Given the insults and curses Chen Yuhong just hurled at her mother, even killing her ten times on the spot wouldn't be enough to vent her anger!
But now, Ning Xi'er was calm and composed, without any ripples in her heart.
Chen Yuhong is so smug and arrogant right now, but she'll soon find out how miserable she is!
Ning Xi'er was waiting to see this moment.
Sure enough, when Chen Yuhong heard Ning Wei ask the question, she turned her head slightly and didn't react for a long time.
Ning Yuan, growing impatient, scolded his servants, "What are you all standing there for?"
"Hurry up and fetch the young lady!"
Ning Wei then discovered that not only Ning Qian, but also the maidservant who served her was nowhere to be found.
Ning Wei frowned and ordered several guards to go with the servants and old women to search.
With such a large commotion around her, Chen Yuhong belatedly realized what was happening when she heard the name "Ning Qian"...
Looking around and confirming that he didn't see his eldest daughter Ning Qian, his mind was in a daze, and he couldn't sort out his thoughts...
Chen Yuhong pushed her two sons out, telling them to hurry up and find their elder sister!
Suddenly exhausted, Chen Yuhong slumped to the side, and the old woman quickly brought her over to help her up...
Chen Yuhong realized what was happening and tried to get up, but she couldn't stand up no matter what she did.
To avoid wasting time, she also pushed the old woman out to look for Ning Qian.
Everyone else in the mourning hall, except Ning Wei, was sent out by her to find other people.
For some reason, Chen Yuhong felt extremely flustered...
It kept falling, as if it were a bottomless abyss.
My eyelids kept twitching, as if foreshadowing something bad about to happen.
Ning Wei stood a few steps away and glanced at Chen Yuhong indifferently.
Watching her become hysterical, watching the funeral hall descend into chaos.
He was a cold-hearted person to begin with, but because Chen Yuhong was usually clever and very good at understanding his feelings, he felt a bit of affection for her...
Looking at her seemingly frantic figure, I felt that any affection I had felt in the past had vanished like a receding tide.
His eyes held nothing but indifference and disgust.
With her second daughter dead and her eldest daughter suddenly missing, Chen Yuhong couldn't care less about anything else at that moment...
She knew she must look incredibly ugly right now, but she didn't care...
I don't care anymore!
The moment my daughter died before my eyes, all the love and affection, the struggle for favor and status, seemed to become less important.
She lives for only one purpose: revenge!
Even though he was pierced by a thousand arrows and in unbearable pain, he could still sense the indifference in the Marquis's eyes...
From the moment Xi'er breathed her last in his arms until this moment, she didn't shed a tear, nor did she even notice a trace of sadness in his expression.
Having been by Ning Wei's side for so many years, Chen Yuhong was very perceptive of his emotions, even though Ning Wei didn't show them outwardly.
There is no pain or sadness, that's all.
Chen Yuhong gasped for breath, like a lost dog, filled with hope, waiting for news of her daughter's discovery...
Although the Marquis's residence was large, it wouldn't take much effort to search for it by mobilizing all the guards and servants.
Chen Yuhong was extremely anxious. She struggled to get up several times, but each time she thought she was too weak and fell back to the ground.
Ning Wei ignored him.
Just when Chen Yuhong felt she was about to reach her limit, she finally saw a guard rushing back.
"Reporting to Your Excellency, no trace of the eldest young lady has been found..."
Then, old women and guards ran back one after another.
"Reporting to the Marquis and Madam, we have not found any trace of the eldest young lady!"
"Reporting to Your Excellency and Madam, we have searched the front and back yards, but have not found any trace of the eldest young lady..."
......
Ning Xi'er sneered from the side. Ning Qian is the young lady, so what is she?
In the Marquis's mansion, apart from her elder brother who holds a military position, she is practically invisible.
Upon hearing this, Ning Wei flew into a rage, "Idiot! The Marquis's mansion is so big, how could you lose someone like that?"
Where is the young lady's maid? Have you found her?
"Where's the guard at the gate? Call him over and ask him if the young lady has left."
Even if Ning Wei knew that Ning Qian was supposed to be keeping vigil at home, he couldn't believe she would be so absurd as to leave without asking her parents for permission.
But since the person hasn't been found, he won't let any possibility go!
The old woman who went to Ning Qian's room was slow-moving and overheard Ning Wei scolding her...
He pointed in the direction of Ning Qian's house, too frightened to utter a word.
Ning Wei glanced at Chen Yuhong, who was still sitting on the ground, and strode towards Ning Qian's room.
The door was wide open, and Ning Wei approached, only to be immediately startled!
Not only because of the person lying on the ground, but also because of the scene inside Ning Qian's room.
The entire room was emptied of everything.
There was only a pile of clothes, shoes, socks, and bedding in the center.
The person lying on the ground was clearly not Ning Qian.
Ning Wei kicked the other person, causing them to turn over, and only then did he realize that it was the maid who usually followed Ning Qian.
Ning Wei gestured, and the guard knelt down to check his breathing. Finding it normal, he shook him vigorously...
The maid slowly woke up.
Ning Wei was about to question Ning Qian about her whereabouts...
Suddenly, someone rushed up from behind and bumped into Ning Wei.
Chen Yuhong, her expression agitated, gripped the maid's hair tightly and questioned her in a hoarse voice:
"Where is Miss? Where is my Qian'er?"
"If anything happens to her, I'll skin you alive!"
Surrounded by so many people and questioned by the Marquis and his wife, the maid was terrified and turned pale.
"Smack!"
Chen Yuhong slapped the maid across the face to "wake her up."
Pulling hard at her tightly clenched hair, Chen Yuhong's expression twisted with rage. "Miss, where did you go?!"
