Chapter 156 Chu Ruohan Becomes Suspicious
"They only let me bring in two people."
Chu Ruohan then remembered the two strong maids beside Wang Shi, and thought to herself that something was wrong.
She stood up and looked at Wang with a cold gaze, "Just stay here honestly, and I'll settle the score with you when I come back."
Chu Ruohan pushed open the door, but there was no one outside.
"Where are those two maids?" The servant, with a panicked look on his face, knelt on the ground with a thud, his voice trembling, "Young Madam, one of them said she had a stomachache, so Miss Chunmei took them to the toilet."
"Go find someone!" The servant ran away crawling as if he had been pardoned.
But at the corner of the corridor, he saw Chunmei who was knocked unconscious.
Chunmei's face turned pale, and before Chu Ruohan could ask any questions, she knelt down with a plop.
"Young Madam, I deserve to die! Those two maids came near the toilet and suddenly said they had something urgent to tell me alone. As soon as I approached, they knocked me unconscious. When I woke up, they were gone."
Chu Ruohan's face was gloomy. "Immediately seal off all entrances and exits of the Marquis' Mansion. Don't let even a fly out. Then send people to search the entire mansion, especially the remote corners and important places like the storeroom and study. Make sure to find those two maids."
The guards took the order and left, their footsteps quickly disappearing at the end of the corridor.
Chu Ruohan looked at Wang again. Wang was so frightened by her gaze that she trembled all over and shrank into the corner.
"You'd better pray that I can find them in the mansion, otherwise, you and your family will have a hard time."
Chu Ruohan's voice was icy cold, and every word was like a knife stabbing Wang's heart.
Even if Chu Ruohan let her go, Gu Jiacheng would not let her off easily. She didn't want to end up like Aunt Li...
Wang cried and begged, "Madam, I really don't know what they are going to do. I was just threatened. Please forgive me."
Chu Ruohan ignored her and turned to Yuling and said, "Go and see if the prince is okay..."
Before she could finish her words, Gu Junze came over pushing a wheelchair, his expression even uglier than hers.
"Brother Yun is missing."
The little guy didn't come to practice calligraphy, so he went to look for someone, but the only person in the room was Haitang who had fainted.
Chu Ruohan turned and looked at Wang with a murderous look in her eyes.
It turned out to be directed at her son.
Wang had already collapsed to the ground in fear, her face as pale as paper.
Chu Ruohan stepped in front of Wang, grabbed her collar and lifted her up from the ground.
He roared angrily, "Tell me! Where did they take Yun'er? If you dare to hide it again, I will kill you now!"
Wang's feet were off the ground, her eyes widened with fear, tears and snot flowed uncontrollably, she shook her head desperately and cried incoherently.
"I really don't know, Madam, I really don't know anything. They just told me to bring them into the mansion. I don't know anything else..."
Chu Ruohan pushed Wang away fiercely, and Wang fell to the ground, groaning in pain.
At this time, the entire mansion was in chaos. The guards were running around searching in every corner, and shouts were heard one after another.
Gu Junze said, "Han'er, don't worry. Yingqing and Song Ruyan have already gone after him. I've also sent a signal to the Shadow Guards. They will definitely bring Yun'er back safely."
He had tried to sound calm, but his unfocused eyes still betrayed his inner anxiety.
In the narrow alley, Gu Yun was carried on the shoulders of a tall maid. His small body struggled desperately, waving his hands in the air.
His face flushed red and he shouted loudly: "Let me go, you bad guys! Why are you arresting me!" The childish voice echoed in the alley.
The man frowned and shouted impatiently, "Behave yourself! If you move again, you'll be in trouble!"
As he spoke, he shook Gu Yun on his shoulder, making him feel uncomfortable.
"I won't! You bad guys, my mother will definitely come to rescue me, and then you will all be arrested!"
The little guy was not afraid at all and retorted stubbornly, his feet still kicking non-stop, trying to break free from the man's restraints.
At this moment, there was a sound of breaking wind, and a group of masked people fell from the sky and landed steadily in front of them.
The leader held a sharp blade in his hand, his eyes icy as he shouted angrily, "Let him go!"
The man's expression changed, and he looked at the person in front of him warily: "You guys think you can stop me?"
He suddenly threw Yun Ge'er behind him, drew the big knife from his waist, and swung the sword to meet the enemy without fear.
For a moment, the flashes of swords and the sounds of metal clashing were endless...
Song Ruyan and Ying Qing followed the trail all the way and finally found the alley, but they saw that the little guy was the only one left in the alley, standing there alone.
Ying Qing quickly stepped forward, knelt on one knee, and asked gently, "Young Master, where is the person who took you away?"
The little guy's eyes dodged, he bit his lip, and said calmly, "There's no one here, I'm just lost."
lie?
Ying Qing and Song Ruyan exchanged a glance, their hearts filled with suspicion. There were clear signs of a fight in this alley, with messy footprints on the ground. A fierce conflict had taken place here.
Who saved him? Or what is he hiding?
Ying Qing stood up and looked around. "It's not advisable to stay here for long. Let's take him back to the Marquis' Mansion first."
Song Ruyan nodded in agreement. The two of them stood on each side, protecting the little guy in the middle, and walked towards the Marquis' Mansion.
Along the way, the little guy kept his head down and remained silent.
When she returned to the Marquis' Mansion, Chu Ruohan was already waiting anxiously in the hall.
As soon as she saw Gu Yun, she felt relieved. Fortunately, nothing happened.
But this time, she did not embrace Gu Yun in her arms as usual, but stood there quietly.
The little guy raised his head slightly and called out timidly, "Mom..." There was a hint of caution in his voice, as if he was testing.
Chu Ruohan took a deep breath and tried to keep her tone calm. "Yun'er, tell me, who are you? What is your identity?"
Her eyes were fixed on Gu Yun, she wanted to hear the truth.
Gu Yun's eyes were filled with panic, and he subconsciously took a step back, as if trying to avoid the question.
"Mom, you... why are you asking this all of a sudden?" Gu Yun's voice was filled with tears, and his eyes began to redden. "I am Yun'er, or that's the name you gave me. What other identity can I have?"
As he spoke, he secretly observed Chu Ruohan's expression, trying to find a familiar tenderness on her face.
He didn't mean to lie to my mother.
He didn't want to...
