Even though Lin Yan disagreed with many of Madam Xie's actions.
But being an elder, she quickly jumped off the carriage to help her up, asking with concern:
"Madam, what has happened?"
Upon seeing Lin Yan, Madam Xie clung to her arm as if it were a lifeline, weeping and pleading:
"Fu'er left this letter and then disappeared!"
Madam Xie is quite strong.
Lin Yan even had doubts.
Was she taking the opportunity to get revenge on her, which is why she used so much force?
Lin Yan gritted her teeth and pulled her arm out of her hand before taking the letter from her.
After quickly glancing at the contents of the letter, her brows twitched a few times!
Because Madam Xie was present.
She didn't know what to say.
But in her heart, Lin Yan had already cursed Xie Fu to the point of being furious.
She actually ran away from home for a man!
"Madam, please don't worry. The ink on this letter has long since dried, indicating that you have been gone for quite some time. I will ride my horse to inquire along the way now. You should go back and wait for my news."
After settling Zhang Li, Wang Yan, Li Kuan, and Xu Da in, Lin Yan was just about to mount her horse and chase after Xie Fu.
Suddenly, Xie Muqing's low voice, seemingly tinged with fear, came from behind.
"My wife..."
Lin Yan paused only for a moment before mounting her horse and riding off without looking back.
Watching her decisive departure, Xie Muqing clenched her fists tightly at her sides.
He gave a self-deprecating laugh.
But that smile was too bitter.
His eyes were filled with sorrow.
"Young master, I've already sent someone to follow the young lady."
"Um."
Even the slow-witted Yang Jiayi noticed his master's unusual behavior and spoke with a slight hesitation:
"Young master...did you and your wife have a fight?"
"If a woman knew that her husband was only with her to use her, would she still forgive him?"
Yang Chia-yi also did not marry.
They don't understand the intricacies of relationships between husband and wife.
"Well... young master, I think Madam is such a good person, she should be able to forgive you if you just admit your mistake. If that doesn't work, you can try a self-inflicted injury trick!"
Xie Muqing was not comforted by what she heard. Instead, she slowly lowered her eyelids and softly murmured:
"Now, even if I died in front of her, she probably wouldn't even glance at me..."
Lin Yan asked questions along the way.
Only then did I learn that Xie Fu had already boarded the oxcart to the town at 9:00 AM.
When she arrived in town and asked at the hot pot restaurant, they found that they had never seen Xie Fu before.
have no choice.
Lin Yan could only inquire at the car rental place in town.
When she heard that Xie Fu was getting into a carriage to go to the prefectural city, she almost couldn't catch her breath!
She patted her troubled chest.
I couldn't help but mutter a curse under my breath:
"madman!"
Even more outrageous than Lin Xinghua!
Lin Xinghua's madness was somewhat understandable.
Having been born in the countryside, she had never seen a man as handsome as Xie Muqing.
But Xie Fu had lived in the capital for fourteen or fifteen years; what handsome men and beautiful women hadn't she seen?
Is it really necessary to go on such a crazy spree?!
Criticism is criticism.
Lin Yan obediently rode Zhu Yue towards the prefectural city.
According to the car dealership owner, Xie Fu had been gone for half an hour.
Lin Yan could only hurry up and try to catch up as soon as possible.
As she approached the city gate, she finally saw the town's carriages.
But it just so happens to be close to the Lunar New Year.
The city guards checked people entering and leaving the city very carefully.
Ahead of Lin Yan was a rather long queue, and she could only watch helplessly as the carriage entered the city.
When she was finally allowed to leave and led Zhu Yue into the city, the carriage had already vanished without a trace...
Just as she was about to curse in frustration, a familiar and concerned voice suddenly came from behind her:
"Miss Lin?"
Lin Yan didn't expect to see an acquaintance as soon as she arrived in the prefectural city.
Even though the city is so big, it seems like she always runs into Xu Yuze every time she enters. She's starting to suspect that he has spies at the city gates...
"My lord? What a coincidence! We meet again. Has your injury healed?"
When Lin Yan turned around, Xu Yuze noticed the urgency on her face and asked softly:
"She's almost recovered. By the way, I noticed Miss Lin looks anxious. Has something happened?"
"Yes, there is something I need. I brought my younger sister to the city for a visit, but we got separated just as we entered the city. I wonder if you have seen a black carriage without any decorations?"
After all, Xie Fu's reputation had to be taken into account.
Lin Yan did not reveal the truth about her running away from home.
Xu Yuze frowned and thought for a moment.
Just now, I seemed to have actually seen a very simple carriage, so I pointed in a direction for her.
"I just saw a carriage heading east, but I don't know if it's the one Miss Lin mentioned. Would you like me to send someone to help you look for it?"
"Thank you, sir! I'm fine on my own. My sister would be scared if there were more people. I have to go catch up with the carriage now, so I'll take my leave. I'll treat you to a meal next time!"
After giving Xu Yuze a hearty fist salute, Lin Yan mounted her horse again and galloped eastward.
Only after she disappeared from sight did Xu Yuze slowly withdraw his gaze and reply almost inaudibly:
"goodbye."
After chasing for a while, Lin Yan belatedly realized that this road seemed to lead to the Prince Su's mansion...
When she finally caught up with Xie Fu at the Prince's mansion, she just happened to see Xie Fu entering the residence.
She was about to chase after him when she was stopped by a group of guards!
"Anyone who trespasses on the Prince's residence shall die!"
"This is a jade pendant that the prince gave me."
