Leng Yu looked at Luo Lan as if she were a stranger, which made Luo Lan's heart skip a beat.
This was the first time in so many years that he looked at her with such strange eyes. She bit her lip, turned around, and instructed Ah Hong:
"Send Ah Cai back to rest, and we'll continue looking."
Just as she was about to turn around, Leng Yu's indifferent voice rang out.
"No."
She looked at him in surprise and asked puzzledly:
"Why not? One more person means more strength."
"You haven't slept all night, go back and rest. Even if it costs me my life, I will find the little twins back, and I will get to the bottom of this matter."
Leaving behind these words as cold as ice, he lightly shook his clothes, turned around, mounted his horse, and left here with a group of soldiers without looking back.
Luo Lan stood in the wind in a disheveled state, letting the gusts of cold wind blow on his face, but it was not as cold as the chill in his heart.
She didn't understand why Leng Yu would associate these things with Huaiyu? Even if Huaiyu was related to these things, he was the one being persecuted.
Having said that, if these things were really related to Huaiyu, not to mention that Leng Yu disagreed, she would not condone Huaiyu.
But having raised him for fourteen years, she knew his temperament very well. Apart from being a little cold-tempered, the child had no other problems.
Besides, how could he possibly come to harm the people in Prince Yu’s Mansion?
Thinking of this, she turned and entered the house, heading straight for Huaiyu's room.
After Huaiyu returned to her room, she did not change her clothes, but lay on the bed with her clothes on, feeling uneasy, thinking about what happened last night, and her heart felt as if it had been hollowed out.
"Huaiyu..."
Luo Lan's voice came from the door. He quickly collected his thoughts and sat up from the bed.
"Mom, why are you here?"
Luo Lan came to his side, looked at him who was still covered in dirt, and asked distressedly:
"Why didn't you take a shower and change into clean clothes?"
Huaiyu pursed her lips and shook her head vigorously.
"I'm tired. I want to rest for a while before going."
Luo Lan came and sat down beside him, and asked gently:
"What happened last night? Can you tell me?"
Huaiyu's expression became nervous at this moment, but he then calmly told the story.
"After I left Prince Yu's Mansion, I went straight outside the city. I originally wanted to find the people who hurt Uncle Ling, but not only did I not find them, I also got lost in the woods outside the city. I just kept walking and walking, resting for a while when I got tired, and then continuing to walk. It wasn't until dawn that I could see the way back to the city. Mom, did Uncle Xiaoshuang really come to find me? Will he get into trouble again because of me? I'm really scared."
When he said this, tears welled up in Huaiyu's eyes. Luo Lan patted his shoulder and comforted him:
"Uncle Xiaoshuang is good at martial arts, nothing will happen to him. Maybe he got lost like you, but he will be back soon."
"mother……"
Huaiyu raised her tearful eyes and looked at Luo Lan, and said with a worried look on her face:
"Dad seems to be angry with me. Can you explain it for me? I really didn't mean to do it. I don't want to hurt Uncle Ling or Uncle Xiaoshuang. I don't understand why these things are related to me. I want to explain, but I can't explain it clearly!"
Huaiyu's eyes made Luo Lan feel distressed. She breathed a sigh of relief and whispered again:
"Your father is not angry with you. He is worried about Uncle Ling and Uncle Xiaoshuang. Once these things are over, everything will be fine."
"Really?"
Huaiyu looked at Luo Lan with his eyes wide open, and asked innocently:
"Will Dad really not kick me out? I was thinking about it after I came back just now. Dad's eyes are full of disgust when he looks at me. He will definitely kick me out of this house. Mom, I really don't want to leave home. I don't know where I should go!"
At this point, he actually lowered his head and started crying.
At this moment, Luo Lan felt that her heart was being torn with pain.
This child has been an orphan since childhood. Although she regards him as her own son, it seems that she cannot make up for his expectations of his biological mother. Now Leng Yu is about to ascend the throne. During this period, someone took advantage of the opportunity and assassinated Xiao Lingzi when Huaiyu was out. However, Leng Yu was foolish enough not to investigate other reasons and imposed all the blame on Huaiyu. This is very unfair to him.
Leng Yu had always been prejudiced against this child, and this time she was even more suspicious of him. What bad intentions could a teenager have? Or rather, he had no reason to do so!
Thinking of this, he raised the handkerchief in his hand, wiped the dirt off Huaiyu's face, and said with heartache:
"Don't worry, as long as mother is here, no one will dare to bully you, and no one will drive you out of this family. The reason these people did this is probably because your father is about to ascend the throne, and someone wants to interfere. So, during this period of time, you should try not to go out, so as not to give bad people an opportunity to take advantage of you."
Huaiyu's eyes flashed alertly for a few times before she nodded and replied:
"Mom, I understand."
"Then you take a rest first. Mom will ask someone to prepare some hot water for you. You can take a hot bath and then have a good sleep."
"Then please ask for leave for me. I don't want to go to class today."
"good."
Luo Lan nodded in agreement, smiled at him gently, turned around and left.
Looking at her back, Huaiyu felt indescribable emotions in his heart.
He didn't know whether what he said was right or wrong, but he had no way out now.
Last night, he deliberately let the Gemini find him, and the Gemini also discovered his abnormality, otherwise, he would not have died so miserably.
Thinking of the tragic death of the little twins, his heart tightened again, and a sense of fear surged in his heart.
He hurried back to bed, wrapped himself tightly with the quilt, and kept his eyes wide open.
He didn't dare close his eyes, because if he did, he would see the face of the little twins before they died...
After Luo Lan came out of Huaiyu's room, she asked the maid guarding the door to boil some hot water for Huaiyu to take a bath, and then went straight to the west wing. She wanted to see Xiao Lingzi first, and then go back to the backyard to ask for leave for Huaiyu.
Since yesterday, all the men in Prince Yu's mansion have gone out to look for the twins. Only Agang and two servants are guarding the room where Xiao Lingzi is. When Luo Lan comes, Agang rushes over to greet her.
"princess……"
Luo Lan nodded to him, pushed open the door, walked in, turned around and closed the door from the inside.
When she arrived at the operating room, the data on the monitor showed that Xiao Lingzi was normal and his vital signs were stable, but he was still in a coma.
Luo Lan changed the dressing on his wound and added various nutritional and anti-inflammatory drips. After setting the sequence, he left the operating room.
