Chapter 607 Not Back Yet
Although she didn't want to care about Nie Jinxi's affairs at all, but due to the instructions of her elders, she couldn't let anything happen to Nie Jinxi!
"Miss Yu, Li Garden is very safe, nothing will happen to her..." Butler Owen said this, and seeing that Yu Wanqing was still not depressed, he smiled and added: "How about this, when it gets dark, if Miss Nie hasn't returned yet, I will send someone to look for her!"
"That's the best!" Yu Wanqing finally breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and solemnly reminded, "Butler Owen, Nie Jinxi is a member of the Nie family. Regardless of your prejudices against her, she must not get into trouble at the Li family manor. If news of this gets out, it will severely damage the Li family's reputation. I hope you understand this!"
"Of course I understand. Miss Yu, don't worry!" Butler Owen responded with a smile, and then asked politely, "I wonder if Miss Yu has anything else to ask?"
"That's all. If you send someone to find Jinxi, remember to tell me!" Yu Wanqing reminded Owen before leaving.
Seeing Owen nod in response, Yu Wanqing turned around with peace of mind, said goodbye to the young butler, and returned to her guest room.
An afternoon passed slowly with the guests' leisure and entertainment.
The originally fierce sunlight gradually faded, and the clouds in the sky became thicker and thicker. Before the sunset, the sky of the entire manor became dim, and it felt as heavy as if dark clouds were covering the city.
"The weather is changing so fast, is it going to rain?"
"I think it's possible. Luckily, the outdoor engagement ceremony was held at noon, when the sun was shining brightly..."
"That's right, that's why Master Li Jiu held the dinner indoors. It doesn't matter even if it rains heavily..."
The guests had woken up from their lunch break and were enjoying the afternoon tea and pastries arranged by the butler Owen in the hall. When they saw the weather change outside, they started to talk in low voices.
Elder Nie also woke up. Looking at the sky outside, he frowned slightly. With the help of Father Nie, he slowly stood up and asked in a low voice, "What time is it now?"
"A little after four o'clock..." Father Nie answered in a low voice and handed Mr. Nie a glass of warm water.
"Where are Jinxi and the others?" Old Nie took the cup of water and took a sip before asking.
"They should all be resting..." Father Nie said to this point, then smiled at Old Nie and said, "Dad, do you want to rest in the guest room or go downstairs to take a look?"
"Help me downstairs!" Old Nie ordered in a light tone. Father Nie nodded quickly and helped Old Nie out of the guest room and went directly downstairs to the living room.
Lin Anqi had a good nap and yawned as she went downstairs. When she saw Elder Nie and Father Nie there, she hurriedly called out respectfully, "Grandpa, Dad—"
"Anqi, have you seen Jinxi?" Father Nie asked with a smile.
"I haven't seen her. She's been out exploring the gardens and hasn't come back yet?" Lin Anqi shrugged and said angrily, "She's got a really big heart and really good stamina!"
There was a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
"Wandering around the garden?" Father Nie looked at Lin Anqi in confusion. Lin Anqi could only answer honestly, "It seems the housekeeper has taken her to familiarize herself with the environment here. I'm not sure about the details, so you can ask Sister Wanqing!"
After she finished speaking, she went to look for Yu Wanqing. Seeing that she was chatting with other guests, she quickly called her over and said, "Sister Wanqing, didn't you say you went to look for Nie Jinxi? She's not back yet, is she?"
