"So, when are you ready to truly belong to me, hmm?"
Tang Yaoyao quickly stood up, furious and embarrassed: "Dream on, Xiao Laosi! I'm only interested in curing your leg, and you're only interested in... being a hooligan!"
Jiang Ci knocked on the door and entered. Looking at Xiao Jinhan and Tang Yaoyao, she said solemnly, "Miss, Fourth Master, the Master and Madam went to Rongshan for sightseeing yesterday and have not returned yet. They have completely lost contact with us."
"When did you go missing?" Xiao Jinhan frowned and asked seriously.
Jiang Ci said, "I sent people to look for them around midnight last night."
“Rongshan is so big, we probably won’t find it even after searching for three days and three nights. Let’s find out the route of Master Xiao and Madam Xiao first, the most likely place they would go!” Tang Yaoyao said.
The thought of that letter made her anxious; she didn't want anything to happen to them.
She then glanced at Xiao Jinhan. He appeared calm on the surface, but he must also be very worried about his parents. Because they were the ones he was worried about, they were also the ones she was worried about.
She was about to become Xiao Jinhan's wife, and she certainly couldn't let anything happen to her in-laws.
Xiao Jinhan said coldly, "Tell me the truth about what happened while I was unconscious."
Judging from their tense expressions, he had already guessed that during the time he was unconscious, other clues had emerged, including the murderer who wanted to cripple his legs.
Jiang Ci told Xiao Jinhan everything. Lu Chi caught an eavesdropper, and the murderer was an enemy of the Xiao family. He not only wanted to cripple Xiao Jinhan's leg, but also to destroy the entire Xiao family.
He spoke arrogantly and shamelessly.
The disappearance of the Xiao couple in Rongshan is bound to cause tension.
Xiao Jinhan's dark chestnut eyes narrowed slightly, shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere. His jawline tightened, and he said in a low, cold voice, "Lead the way to Rongshan."
He had difficulty moving around, and Tang Yaoyao didn't want him to travel such a long distance: "I'll go!"
Xiao Jinhan raised his eyes and asked in confusion, "Sixteen."
Tang Yaoyao looked at Xiao Jinhan: "I'm going, but you can't go."
"It could be dangerous."
"Do you think I, Tang Yaoyao, would be afraid? They are your parents and my in-laws. It's perfectly appropriate for me to go."
"No, I can't let you be in danger," Xiao Jinhan refused.
Tang Yaoyao looked at the many people behind her: "I won't. Don't you trust them? Also, Sixth Brother sent someone to protect me. It'll be fine."
Lu Chi looked at Xiao Jinhan, lowered his eyes, and said coldly, "Hello, Fourth Master, I am the bodyguard sent by the sect leader to protect Miss Tang."
"You've been here too?"
"Yes, Sixth Brother came when he heard that Fourth Brother was in trouble. Don't you trust Sixth Brother?" Tang Yaoyao tried her best to persuade Xiao Jinhan.
Tang Yaoyao said firmly, "You should know that I am not a princess who needs to be protected under your wings, but someone who can spread her wings and have her own sky."
Xiao Jinhan was well aware of this. She was different from other women. She was not content with the status quo, nor was she willing to fail. She would keep striving and trying. She was a woman who could live well without his protection.
Her resilience was enough to support her.
Xiao Jinhan agreed, staring at her with a firm gaze: "Be careful, don't take risks, and protect yourself."
"I will."
He then looked at Lu Chi and said solemnly, "Please take good care of Sixteen. Thank you."
Lu Chi respected Xiao Jinhan; he was steady and capable. He nodded in acknowledgment, "As instructed by the sect leader, I will definitely protect Miss Tang."
After saying that, they all went out.
