Xu Fu glared and scolded his nephew.
The guard and his nephew were both shocked.
“(⊙o⊙)…Uh?”
The nephew couldn't help but argue back with his uncle.
"What three days? You've only been locked up for an hour!"
Xu Fu was stunned and looked at Lu Guoan, who was also stunned.
The two looked at Xiaoxi at the same time, and Xiaoxi kept her head down and giggled.
Xu Fu then looked at the colorful lotus porcelain vase in front of him.
Suddenly, he slapped his thigh.
"Old Lu, look! I completely forgot to take the cart away, it's such a disaster! It's ruined, such a waste of my porcelain vase!" she cried.
Lu Guoan and Xiao Xi looked closely at the colorful lotus porcelain vase.
Sure enough, the painting on the bottle depicts a traditional wooden cart on a bluestone path by a lotus pond, rendered with meticulous brushwork.
An out-of-place cart ruins the overall artistic conception of the porcelain vase; it looks completely out of place.
Lu Guoan and Xiao Xi burst into laughter.
The guard bit his finger.
Really? The old Chinese medicine doctor actually called the leader "Old Lu," and the leader not only wasn't angry, but he also chatted and laughed with the young girl.
Xu Fu's nephew also rushed out the door.
I need to wash my face with cold water to clear my head: Has Uncle gone mad? Not only is he hanging up salted fish, but he also dares to call the leader "Old Lu".
A moment later, Xu Fu clapped his hands and shouted again.
"Sir, did I choose a good name for Huichun Hall? Our hair has all turned black." This time, he was a little more sober, mindful of his status, and realized he had returned to reality.
He fawned over Lu Guoan, grabbing an antique mirror from the display shelf and offering it to him.
Lu Guoan didn't look in the mirror, but instead went to the sofa and sat down, calming himself down for a while.
His leg was healed in the lotus bottle in three days, but in reality it only took an hour. The Ye family's little girl is no ordinary person, she's a prodigy!
Suddenly, Lu Guoan's phone rang. He frowned when he saw the number displayed.
Xiao Xi and Xu Fu quickly retreated to the courtyard.
Lu Guoan was furious over the phone.
"What? You mean Ye Yuan and Liang Wanyi, along with six other researchers from the military, have gone missing on the border of Southern Province? Suspected kidnapping? Wasn't this mission supposed to be very covert...?"
Xiao Xi and Xu Fu had both moved far away and had already left Ying Song Pavilion, and were almost at the back door of Hui Chun Tang.
She suddenly ran wildly towards Yingsong Pavilion.
Xiaoxi has exceptional hearing. Even though she tried to avoid it, she still heard Ye Yuan and Liang Wanyi, the couple Lu Guoan mentioned on the phone. Aren't those her parents' names?
On the first day Xiaoxi returned to the manor, her seventh brother told her her parents' names.
How come Mom and Dad are serving in the military? And then they disappeared? Were they possibly kidnapped?
Xiaoxi burst into tears and rushed into the Yingsong Pavilion flower hall in a panic.
"Uncle Lu, is what happened to my parents true?"
Lu Guoan wasn't surprised at all that Xiaoxi ran back so quickly.
He simply walked over, stroked Xiaoxi's head, and nodded heavily with heartache.
This little girl was just found by the Ye family. She has never seen her parents. Her parents have always worked diligently for the country, and now their fate is unknown.
"Uncle Lu, I want to ask if my parents are serving in the military? I asked my brothers, but they wouldn't tell me."
"Yes, Xiaoxi, your father Ye Yuan and mother Liang Wanyi are rare military researchers in our army."
They specialize in developing advanced weapons for our country, and your parents are both generals.
Several other military researchers also disappeared during this covert operation, on the border of the southern province…
Lu Guoan's answer was completely unevasive, because Xiaoxi was an extraordinary little girl.
Xiao Xi healed his leg, and through the three days they spent together in the colored bottle, their friendship became extraordinary.
Just as Lu Guoan had predicted.
Xiaoxi wiped away her tears and said firmly, "Uncle Lu, I'm going to save my mom and dad!"
Lu Guoan pondered for only half a second, then said, "Okay!"
