Chapter 269: People Have Similarities
Tang Yi paused slightly as she drank her tea. She put down her teacup, stood up abruptly, and glared at Uncle Hai: "You... what did you say? You said you saw someone?"
Uncle Hai repeated, "I saw a young girl who looked somewhat similar to the young lady."
Tang Yi immediately went to the window and looked around anxiously, scanning everyone passing by on the street, but she did not see the girl that Uncle Hai had mentioned.
"Quickly! Send someone to search!" Tang Yi clenched her fists and anxiously gave the order to Uncle Hai.
"Don't worry, Miss, I've already ordered people to search for that girl," Uncle Hai replied.
Upon hearing this, Tang Yi calmed down slightly. She sat back down on the stool, picked up her teacup, took a sip of tea, and after a while, said, "A girl who looks very similar to my eldest sister? Is she my eldest sister's daughter?"
"Why...why hasn't she come back to the Tang family all these years?"
Tang Yi's expression turned somewhat wistful.
Uncle Hai was silent for a moment, then said, "Second Miss, people can look alike."
“I know, I understand that perfectly well…” Tang Yi sighed deeply, “but I really hope to see her again.”
Uncle Hai said with certainty, "The eldest young lady must still be alive. Second young lady, you and the eldest young lady will definitely be able to meet again."
Tang Yi wiped away the tears that had seeped from the corners of her eyes: "First, I saw the Purple Jade Pill with lotus patterns at the auction, and then you met a girl who looked like her. Every event is closely related to my eldest sister. She must still be alive, but... she may have encountered some crisis and had no choice but to not come and recognize us."
Yes, that must be it.
Uncle Hai comforted her, saying, "Miss is a doctor and alchemist; she's blessed with good fortune and will be safe and sound."

At this moment, Ye Fei was unaware that she had been "targeted".
She was still thinking about the older man she had bumped into on the street.
Seeing that her brows were furrowed, Yun Fusang guessed what she was thinking. After a pause, he said, "That person just now came from the Tang family, one of the eight great families."
Ye Fei looked up and met Yun Fusang's gaze: "The Tang family?"
“Hmm.” Yun Fusang nodded and said, “Because I saw lotus patterns on the hem of his clothes. The lotus is the family crest of the Tang family.”
"Moreover, the fabric and workmanship of his clothes are very fine; only people from wealthy families could afford to wear them."
Ye Fei pointed to her face: "But it's still strange, how could someone blurt out 'Young Miss' to a complete stranger?"
Yun Fusang pondered for a moment, then shook her head: "Is it because you look a lot like the eldest daughter of the Tang family?"
"Fusang, you know a lot about the Tang family?" Ye Fei glanced at her.
Yun Fusang explained in a calm tone, "The Tang family has its own businesses in Xingluo Kingdom. Although the Yun family is a family in Wushuang Kingdom, the cooperative relationship with the Tang family has always been very good."
The two had returned to Jubaolou while they were talking.
When Song Yu saw Ye Fei and Yun Fusang returning side by side, he said, "If you two hadn't come back soon, I would have sent Qin Gui to look for them."
Ye Fei took out the pastries from her hands and placed them on the table, saying apologetically, "I'm really sorry to have kept Master Song waiting. Consider these pastries my apology."
Sitting next to Song Yu, Yan Ge took a deep drag on her pipe, her phoenix eyes fixed on Ye Fei, as if she wanted to see a flower bloom on her face.
Her gaze was incredibly complex. Ye Fei naturally handed the pastries to Yan Ge: "Sister, you don't need to look at me like that. These pastries are for you too—eat them, they taste pretty good."
