Chapter 323 Disfigurement
Qin Huiyin's gaze stayed on Rong Mingjin for a long time.
Rong Mingjin leaned in Rong Wenxuan's arms and cried sadly, looking frightened and greatly shocked.
"Second Master Rong, since your sister is fine, you can leave her to your men for protection and care. What you should be concerned about now is your fiancée, whose life or death is uncertain."
"Don't worry, Mr. Qin, I have sent a large number of men to look for him. I believe that news will be reported back soon." Rong Wenxuan patted Rong Mingjin on the back, his eyes full of heartache.
"Why don't you go look for it yourself?" Qin Huiyin said indifferently.
"I……"
"Second brother, I'm scared..." Rong Mingjin grabbed the corner of Rong Wenxuan's clothes and refused to let go.
Tang Yichen looked around and came back to Qin Huiyin and said, "Boss Xia fell from here. If there are vines tied to his body, it might be easier to find him if we follow this trail."
"You are right, sir. Our young master just jumped down from here. His kung fu is pretty good. If we follow this position, we might find him. However, this mountain is too high. It's easy for him to come up alone, but it would be difficult if he brought someone with him. We stay here to wait for news from the young master."
Bang! The flare shot straight into the sky.
The servant of the Li family said excitedly: "This is the signal from our young master. Master Qin, it seems that the young master has found Master Xia. We have to follow the location of this signal to meet him. Brothers, let's go and pick up the young master."
"yes."
Rong Wenxuan handed Rong Mingjin to the servant next to him and said to her, "You go back to the temple first. I will go to pick up Wan'er."
"Brother, don't go. That temple is not safe and I'm scared." Rong Mingjin cried until he fainted.
Rong Wenxuan quickly picked her up and shouted anxiously, "What are you standing there for? Send her to the temple. I remember there is a monk who knows medicine in the temple. Send her to him quickly."
Qin Huiyin watched Rong Wenxuan's figure disappear with indifference.
"Follow your brother." Tang Yichen took Qin Huiyin's hand and led her to follow the servants of the Li family.
Since there was news, Qin Huiyin called Rong Yi and the others back and took them to follow the Li family members in front.
It was already late at night and the light was dim. They carried torches and crossed the steep mountains, passed rivers and canyons, and finally saw a cave with a fire burning.
"Young Master...Master Xia..."
"Sister Wan'er..."
A figure walked out of the cave and stood at the entrance looking at them.
"Young Master, are you okay?" asked the Li family's servant.
Li Congxiao, who always paid attention to his manners, had messy hair, his gorgeous clothes had long been tattered, and there were many scratches on the exposed skin, leaving wounds on his handsome face.
Qin Huiyin's gaze rested on his legs.
His leg was injured and he walked with a limp.
And those hands, with their long, slender fingers like bamboo, were bloody and their tender flesh turned inside out.
"Master Li, how is Sister Wan'er?" Qin Huiyin bowed and asked worriedly.
Li Congxiao pointed to the cave: "She is inside."
Qin Huiyin trotted in, and when she saw Xia Ruwan lying on the hay, her eyes were filled with pity.
"Her face..."
There was a lot of blood on the right side of Xia Ruwan's face, and there was a very obvious scar.
"She was injured when she fell. The wound on the right side of her face is very deep. We need to take her back to the city to have Doctor Wei treat her as soon as possible. Otherwise, I'm worried that she will be left with a scar."
Qin Huiyin brought a lot of people with her, so taking Xia Ruwan away was no problem. She asked her men to take Xia Ruwan and Li Congxiao away immediately and head back to the city.
Li Congxiao was injured and his men carried him on their backs.
He turned back and looked in Xia Ruwan's direction from time to time.
"Little sister, the city gate is closed. You can't enter the city even if you rush back now." Tang Yichen reminded.
"Sure." Qin Huiyin said, "Song Yi will definitely have a way."
Tang Yichen looked at Song Yi.
Song Yi said, "There is a brother of ours among the guards. We can ask him for mercy. It shouldn't be a problem to make an exception occasionally."
What's more, the number one scholar is here. If they can take the opportunity to make friends with him, it will only benefit them and not harm them.
Another point is that whether it is Xia Ruwan, Li Congxiao or Qin Huiyin, they are all influential figures in the business world, and everyone in the city knows them.
After Rong Wenxuan settled Rong Mingjin, he walked out the door, looked outside, and called out, "Rong Sheng, send someone to find out where they are now."
Rong Sheng came back quickly and said, "Second Young Master, I didn't see them. Do you think they haven't been found yet?"
"Judging from the signal flares just now, that location shouldn't be far away. If they came to the temple to stay overnight, they should have returned by now."
The nanny beside the old lady of the Rong family came over and said to Rong Wenxuan, "Second Young Master, how is Miss Xia? The old lady is worried about Miss Xia and has been waiting for news."
"I don't know her situation yet. Once I find out clearly, I will report it to my grandmother." Rong Wenxuan said.
"Miss Xia fell off a cliff. Didn't the Second Young Master personally bring people to look for her?" the old nanny asked puzzledly.
"Wan'er's good sisters brought a lot of people here, and people from the Li family helped. The Xia family also sent a lot of people. I thought that with so many people looking for her, and my third sister being frightened, she couldn't leave home, so I didn't go looking for her myself. But please rest assured, grandma. Although I can't spare the time, I have sent my men to look for her. I am still waiting for my men to come back and report on Wan'er's situation."
"The old lady said that if Miss Xia is fine, our family will come forward to apologize, and perhaps the matter will be over. If Miss Xia is in trouble, our Rong family will probably be blamed. Originally, Miss Xia was staying well in the temple, but the third lady insisted on going to the back mountain to enjoy the scenery, which gave the thieves an opportunity to take advantage of her. Our Rong family is sorry for Miss Xia in this matter."
"Wan'er will be fine."
After the old lady left, Rong Mingjin woke up and screamed "Second Brother".
Rong Wenxuan hurried in to accompany her: "Third sister, are you okay?"
Rong Mingjin threw herself into Rong Wenxuan's arms and cried, "Brother, I'm so scared, please don't leave. As soon as I closed my eyes, I saw the hideous faces of those thieves. I was so scared."
"Second brother hasn't left, don't be afraid." Rong Wenxuan patted her on the back.
"How is Sister Xia?" Rong Mingjin looked up, his face pale and asked haggardly.
"I don't know." Rong Wenxuan looked out the window. "But she will be fine."
Rong Wenxuan asked the little monk to bring some calming incense. After lighting it for Rong Mingjin, the latter finally fell into a peaceful sleep.
He came out again to inquire about Xia Ruwan's whereabouts. Even if he didn't see Xia Ruwan, it was impossible for the people brought by Qin Huiyin and those from the Xia and Li families to disappear out of thin air, right?
"They went down the mountain and did not come to the temple to stay overnight." Rong Sheng looked around and made his judgment based on the footprints on the ground.
