Chapter 458: Being Involved
Outside the wing room, Wang Man'er, Bishi and Dong Yuanyao's maids Hongyu and Hongfang did not follow them in because they were going to the bathroom. Not far away, there were also a few maids standing there. They came with Jiang Wanying and Chen Jiarou.
After waiting for a while, Wang Maner saw no movement in the wing room. She frowned and asked, "Why haven't Miss and Miss Dong come out yet?"
Hongyu smiled and said, "My daughter was greedy yesterday and ate too much milk soup. This morning, her stomach feels a little uncomfortable."
Wang Man'er looked surprised and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? My daughter has some pills. I guarantee you'll be fine after taking one."
Hongyu: "My daughter hates taking medicine the most, and since it's not serious, I didn't tell her."
Wang Maner nodded, stopped talking about this, and started talking about other topics.
On the giant tree not far from the wing room, Yan Ying frowned slightly. He was not sure how long it would take for the girl to go to the bathroom, so he waited patiently for a while.
When Yan Ying saw another group of girls coming from a distance, she lost her balance and jumped down from the tree. She quickly came to the wing room, but because of the difference between men and women, she did not directly check the situation in the wing room, but called Wang Maner with a stone.
Wang Man'er screamed "Ouch" when she was hit by a stone. When she turned around, she saw Yan Ying hiding in the corner and waving at her.
She had seen Yan Ying before and knew that this man was the girl's secret guard. When she saw him looking for her, she walked over without saying a word.
When Hongyu and the other two saw this, they were a little surprised, but they were very tactful and didn't say anything.
"Come into the room and take a look. I think something is wrong."
As soon as Wang Maner walked in, Yan Ying spoke anxiously.
Wang Maner knew that the secret guards were all very capable. When she heard this, her face suddenly changed. Without asking any questions, she ran directly into the side room.
Soon, Wang Maner's panicked scream was heard in the room: "Guard Yan!"
Hearing the sound, Yan Ying no longer cared about anything else and rushed into the room at a rapid speed.
The maids waiting outside the wing saw a big man rushing into the girl's room and tried to stop him, but before they could say anything, the man had already gone in.
Hongyu and the other two sensed something was wrong as soon as Wang Maner entered, and rushed into the room following Yan Ying.
"Who are you, you scoundrel? You think you can break into girls' bathrooms? Get out of here!"
Chen Jiarou's maid lagged behind and started yelling at Yan Ying as soon as she came in.
"Shut up!"
"Shut up!"
Wang Maner and Hongyu spoke at the same time.
The maid who came in later seemed frightened and became quiet, then she realized something was wrong in the room.
Apart from them, where else could their daughter be found in the room?
By this time, Yan Ying had already finished searching the house. Frowning, she looked at Wang Man'er, "The incense burner is burning with incense!" Then, looking towards the wide-open back window, her face heavy, she said, "I'm afraid the girls have been kidnapped. Quickly tell the gentlemen. I'll go after them first."
After saying that, his figure flashed and he jumped out of the window and disappeared.
The room was silent. All the maids were still thinking about the words "the girl was kidnapped", and their faces were pale.
"girl!"
Jiang Wanying's maid was the first to react. She rushed into the inner room quickly. Seeing that there was no one inside, her face turned pale instantly. She was stunned for a moment, then turned around and ran out.
When Wang Man'er saw this, she immediately stepped forward and grabbed the man, saying sternly, "What are you going to do?"
Jiang Wanying's maid trembled and said, "The girl is missing. I have to tell the lady."
Wang Man'er frowned: "You run out like this now, do you want everyone to know that your daughter is missing?"
Upon hearing this, Hongyu and Hongfang's expressions changed and they quickly ran to close the door.
We can’t let outsiders know that the girl is missing. Otherwise, even if she is found later, she will not be able to live a normal life.
Wang Man'er looked at the maids present sternly and said, "We must not publicize this matter. We can only tell the master quietly in private. We must not let outsiders notice that something is wrong. Otherwise, if the girls lose their reputation, neither you nor I will be able to survive."
Seeing the maids from the Jiang and Chen families calm down, Wang Maner breathed a sigh of relief: "Now let's go out as if nothing happened and report the girls' affairs as quickly as possible."
After saying that, he glanced at Hongyu and the other two, opened the door and walked out quickly.
Daohua woke up in a burst of rapid shaking. When she opened her eyes, she saw Dong Yuanyao, Jiang Wanying and Chen Jiarou lying beside her with their eyes closed.
She looked around and realized that they were now in a speeding carriage.
Daohua struggled to support her upper body with her elbows, shook her still dizzy head, and listened carefully to the movement outside.
Apart from the occasional sound of horses beating and shouting, there was nothing else.
Daohua slowly sat up, being careful not to make any sound.
Obviously, they were kidnapped!
Thinking of the fragrance she smelled in the compartment, she couldn't help but want to slap herself. She was just playing with this, but she was actually bewitched by an outsider.
Daohua took out a homemade detoxification pill from her purse, and soon after taking it, she gradually regained her strength.
Now that she had regained her strength, Daohua pushed Dong Yuanyao beside her and fed her an antidote.
Not long after, Dong Yuanyao slowly opened her eyes. Seeing that she wanted to make a sound in her daze, Daohua quickly covered her mouth with her hand. Only when Dong Yuanyao's eyes became clear again did Daohua let go of her hand and shook her head to signal her not to make any sound.
She knew that people who practiced martial arts had very strong hearing and could hear even the slightest sound.
Dong Yuanyao was completely sober. She looked at the situation in the carriage and immediately understood their situation. The windows were sealed, and they couldn't jump out even if they wanted to.
At this time, voices were heard outside.
"Hurry up, hurry up! The Chen and Jiang families will definitely find out soon that their daughter is missing. If we are caught, you and I will be dead."
"Don't worry, we have been out of the city for so long, and we didn't take the official route. It won't be easy to catch us."
Hearing this, Daohua and Dong Yuanyao looked at each other and saw a look of depression on each other's faces.
They were implicated!
The people outside should have wanted to capture Jiang Wanying and Chen Jiarou, but they were unlucky and were captured along with them.
Feeling that someone outside was about to open the car door, Daohua and Dong Yuanyao were startled and lay down in their original position and closed their eyes.
"Crack~"
The car door was opened.
A big man with a face full of flesh looked into the carriage, saw that the four people were still unconscious, and slowly closed the door.
"You are too cautious. Lady Yu lit such a large piece of incense that those delicate girls won't be able to wake up in a while."
"It's better to be careful and not let Mr. Fan down."
"We're almost at the pier. We can't miss it."
At the same time, at an abandoned dock several miles away, boxes of glassware were being carefully loaded onto a cargo ship by boatmen.
"Be careful, and handle it with care. This glass is precious. If it's damaged, we won't be able to compensate for it even if we sell our property."
Sun Changze looked at his cousin running around and giving instructions, and smiled and shook his head.
Soon, all the boxes of colored glass were loaded onto the cargo ship.
"Brother Changze, the boxes have been counted."
Sun Changze nodded, and after handing over the work to the steward, the cargo ship started.
Sun Changze waited until the cargo ship was out of sight before he boarded the small boat next to it with a few of his brothers.
Just as they were about to sail away, Sun Changze and others heard the sound of horse hooves coming from afar.
"Hey, this dock has been abandoned for several years, why are there still people coming here?"
My fellow book friends, Happy Lantern Festival. Sorry, there will only be one update today. I will resume three updates tomorrow!
