Chapter 485 Missing
Xiao Nian listened carefully to Xixi's words and said obediently, "Okay, I'll listen to you, sister."
Xixi grabbed Xiaonian's hand and said with absolute certainty, "He should be going in that direction. Let's hurry up and follow him."
The two of them trotted towards the direction where Luo Jin came out.
Xia Zhi looked around for the two children and asked a passerby, "Did you see two little girls about this height just now?"
The passerby waved his hand, and Xia Zhi let go of her with some disappointment.
Xia Zhi did not give up and continued to catch people to ask, but the result he got was that they did not see it.
She remembered that the two children just said they were here to buy some food and would go back, and they didn't let her follow them, saying that they wanted to prepare a surprise for the young master.
As a result, she lost sight of the two children.
Xia Zhi is now extremely anxious, fearing that they might be taken away and something might happen to them.
How would she explain this to General Gu and the young master then?
In the alley, the two small figures of Xixi and Xiaonian were moving at an extremely fast speed.
Xixi's heart was full of doubts.
This place is so remote, what is that Luo doing here?
Besides, didn't he say he was out to buy some colorful thread? He shouldn't go to the street to buy things, but come here.
When they were almost inside, they finally saw Luo Jin standing there.
In order to avoid being discovered, Xixi took Xiaonian and hid sideways. She quietly stuck her head out to look at Luo Jin, and when she saw that he was still standing there, Xixi retracted her head.
She put her index finger in front of her lips and made a "hush" sound, signaling Xiao Nian to be quiet.
Xiao Nian covered her mouth with her hands, indicating that she would never say another word.
Suddenly, voices were heard over there.
Xixi pricked up her ears and listened carefully.
She always felt that there was something wrong with the man named Luo who was beside her grandmother.
Last time he tried to secretly put something in grandma's room, and today he came out alone again.
Humph, after she figures out what this person is trying to do, she’ll go tell her grandma.
Grandma will definitely praise her for being clever!
In front of Luo Jin stood a woman with half her face covered. She lowered her voice and asked him, "Did you do what I asked you to do before?"
“It almost worked.”
Luo Jin's voice sounded a little regretful.
"How could that be? Doesn't that woman trust you the most?"
"It was because something unexpected happened and Miss Gu suddenly appeared..."
"Forget it, you can find another opportunity later."
Xixi was shocked when she heard this.
What does it mean?
Did I accidentally ruin their plans that time?
Suddenly, the woman's gaze turned to a corner.
"Someone." she said affirmatively.
Luo Jin immediately asked cautiously: "Who is it?"
The woman walked over and moved several baskets piled in the corner. Xixi and Xiaonian had no time to leave and were exposed to the woman.
"Oh, it turns out they are two little ghosts."
The woman used her size to her advantage and lifted them both up.
When Luo Jin saw Xixi and Xiaonian, his heart suddenly rose to his throat.
"know?"
The woman asked, seeing him like this.
Luo Jin nodded and said, "They are the second and third young ladies of the Gu family."
The woman suddenly felt murderous.
Xixi bit the woman's arm, and the woman let go of her in pain.
Xiao Nian also wanted to do the same, but the woman had already left her to Luo Jin and went to chase Xixi.
Xixi turned around to look at Xiaonian and gritted her teeth, "I'll go find someone to save you...ah!"
She felt someone knock on her back and her vision went dark.
When Xiao Nian saw this, she quickly called out, "Sister!"
Luo Jin covered her mouth.
His expression remained unchanged as he said threateningly, "If you make a sound, both of you will die."
Xiao Nian was extremely scared.
The woman brought Xixi back and threw her to the ground.
"They are just two little kids. You take care of them."
She threw a knife to Luo Jin.
At this time, Xixi fainted and fell to the ground, and Xiaonian had her mouth covered by someone. Then she felt a smell rushing into her nose, and her head felt dizzy and she lost consciousness.
"Hurry up, otherwise our plan will be ruined if they go back and tell on us."
Luo Jin picked up the knife, but dropped it on the ground when he saw Xixi's face.
"I...I can't bring myself to do it."
Through Xixi's face, he seemed to see that bright and outspoken woman.
"waste."
Luo Jin hesitated for a moment, then said, "Why not take them away first? Maybe they'll be useful in the future."
"Besides, if we kill them now, the General's Mansion will not let it go."
After listening to him, the woman thought about it and felt that his words made some sense.
"Then I'll take these two brats away first."
Before she left, she said to Luo Jin, "Don't forget how your family died. Have you forgotten why you stayed in the General's Mansion?"
Luo Jin closed his eyes and recalled the scene where his family fell in front of him.
He was only a child of ten years old at that time. General Gu led his men to massacre an entire city, including his family.
But he was hidden under a dry well and escaped the disaster.
At that time, the Daning Kingdom was far from what it is today. It was the Empress and General Gu who led people to war time and time again and gradually expanded the territory.
Although he knew that the cruelty of war was inevitable, when he climbed out of the well and looked at the bloody yard and his parents who were still breathing only died after seeing that he was safe, his heart was empty and wrapped in hatred.
The woman saw the struggle on his face and smiled with satisfaction.
"I'll take the first step."
After saying that, she took Xixi and Xiaonian and left from the other side.
Luo Jin returned to the general's mansion.
Xia Zhi didn't find the two children, so she decided to go back to the general's mansion. When she came back, she saw Luo Jin empty-handed.
Without thinking too much, Xia Zhi hurried to report to General Gu.
As soon as General Gu heard that the two children were missing, he took people to look for them.
......
Gu family.
After receiving the news from the General's Mansion, Gu Qingyuan stood up almost immediately.
"what happened?"
Lu Rui was still here, and seeing the anxiety on her face, he quickly asked.
She said, "Xixi and Xiaonian are missing."
"What? Then take someone to look for him quickly. I'll go with you."
Gu Qingyuan originally wanted to hide it from Wen Shubai, but eventually she let him know.
Yu Shui has always been well-informed. When he saw Gu Qingyuan taking people out, he knew what happened as soon as he asked.
He said to Wen Shubai nervously, "Master, the Second Miss and the Third Miss haven't returned since they left today... The Young Master and the people from the General's Mansion have gone looking for them."
He told Wen Shubai in a more tactful way.
