Pei Yuanxiu... is gone.
He left.
The hot hand, the cold chest, the man who hugged me tightly in the dark, left.
He was so injured by me that he—
This thought just flashed in my mind and was immediately thrown away by myself.
impossible!
If it were the past, if we were still entangled, he might have been hit by my words and emotional setbacks. But last night, I could almost feel his whole breath becoming cold, which was a chill that emanated from the inside out.
This time, I don't think he would give up because of emotional trauma.
But, where has he gone?
As soon as I turned around, I immediately ordered Su Su to go down and inquire, and then asked those who followed me to send a team of people out to search. Even if I couldn't find Pei Yuanxiu, I must figure out the route he left.
I spent the whole morning anxiously waiting. During lunch, I didn’t get together because the people who came had some things to do. At night, I had to go out to have supper with them.
I really have no appetite, but at this time I have to show up even if I don’t have the appetite.
Just like in the morning, when I walked there, there were still people at the same table. I was the last one. Xue Qian had already sat in the main seat. When she saw me coming, she immediately snorted coldly and didn't look at me. In this way, the people around her were naturally embarrassed and couldn't say anything. Only Yan Ruoyu, who was sitting next to me, smiled and said to me: "My cousin is here."
I nodded and smiled, walked over and sat down.
As soon as I sat down, the meal started immediately.
The meal was still dull, and no one spoke much. Xue Qian looked cold and no one would go to chat with her. But when I was picking up the food, I looked at the person on the table, turned to look at Yan Ruoyu. She was smiling at me, and I whispered, "Where is your brother? Why didn't he come?"
"elder brother……"
She was stunned for a moment and immediately smiled, "Brother, have something to do."
"What's the matter?"
"Well, my family has a little business in Chengdu."
"Oh, then he has worked hard."
"hehe……"
Seeing that she looked unwilling to talk more, I didn't say anything. After dinner, everyone left the same as in the morning. I asked Susu to take the opportunity to inquire about some more news and walk back slowly. Unexpectedly, after just two steps, I saw several people stumbled over on a road next to her, holding a drunken man.
The man was muttering and cursing while walking. When he heard the sound, it was Yan Zicong.
He was so drunk that he could not recognize the person. A maid helped him, and he even reached out to touch the other person's face and smiled with a shy face: "Girl, sing another song for me, sing, the uncle will give me a lot of rewards..."
When I heard this, my brows frowned.
And they didn't notice that I was standing next to him and staggered away with him.
I looked at them like that, and then recalled Yan Ruoyu's words that he was going to do serious things. I couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook my head, turned around and went back to my room.
After a while back, Wuwei Monk also came. He knew that Pei Yuanxiu had left, and I asked about his whereabouts everywhere and came to my room. Seeing that there were several folds forming between my eyebrows, I knew that I was worried. He said strangely: "Isn't it good for him to leave? The eldest lady is not a member of the Yan family who didn't want him to be with the Yan family-"
“Things aren’t that simple.”
I sighed and said, "If he is in the Yan family, I can still observe and judge all his actions."
“…”
"But once he left, he was completely in a state of uncontrollable condition."
I don’t know where he will go or what he is going to do. It was originally an easy thing to deal with Xue Qian, but with him, it would be very troublesome, but if his actions are completely uncontrollable, it would be the most difficult thing.
The fearless monk looked at me nervously, was silent for a moment, and then said, "Miss, why don't you go? Why don't you go to that kid ask?"
I glanced at him and immediately understood that what he was talking about was Qingchen.
Suddenly, his brows frowned even tighter: "I'm going, but he - he just used medicine today, and he was so painful that he was confused. It would be useless to find him at this time."
When the monk Wuwei heard this, he couldn't help but scolded: "It's useless!"
I glanced at him and wanted to explain to him, but I really didn't have more energy at the moment, so I could only act like I couldn't hear it. At this time, Su Su ran in from outside, and I hurriedly got up and asked her: "How?"
Su Su gasped and said, "Miss, I found out that Mr. Pei left last night."
"last night?"
"Yes, I heard from the gatekeeper, probably - it wasn't long before I left the lady's room."
“…!”
I couldn't help but gasp.
Last night, he had already left the Yan family not long after leaving my room.
Did he have a plan or did he temporarily leave after breaking up with me last night?
However, whether it is a plan or a temporary plan, this is a troublesome thing.
I frowned, and all kinds of thoughts emerged from my mind at this moment, and immediately twisted my whole thoughts into a mess. Seeing my increasingly worried look, Su Su hurriedly said, "Miss, don't be anxious."
She didn't know how to comfort me, so she could only say this hard, obviously it had no effect on the matter. I could only try my best to suppress my emotions and sit down and wait for news. After a while, the people I sent came back to report two times, but they all said that Pei Yuanxiu's whereabouts were not traced.
My mood became heavier.
It seems that I should really be more alert last night, even if someone stares at me for a while.
At the moment, everyone in the Yan family will soon arrive. If something happens temporarily and I have no solution, it will be really troublesome.

Although Su Su and Wuwei Monk can help, they don’t have many ways to do the whole thing. They just look at me anxious, and they are also anxious. I simply asked them to go back and rest and stay in the room to find a way.
Just as they were about to open the door, they heard a few very light knocks from outside.
Who is looking for me?
Su Su paused for a moment, looked back at me, and then reached out to open the door.
Outside the door, there was a man standing.
I could only barely see a contour. Before I could recognize who it was, I heard Su Su say in surprise: "Miss Ruoyu?"
Yan Ruoyu?
I was a little surprised when I heard this name. Sure enough, I saw her smiling and said, "Are you cousin here?"
Su Su looked back at me and said hurriedly: "Miss, Miss Ruoyu is here to find you."
I murmured in my heart, why did she come? But the person had already arrived at the door and saw me, so I could only barely cheer up and walk forward. The fearless monk had already walked out from her side. He saw Yan Ruoyu holding his hands in front of him, holding a small and delicate cloth bag in his hand, which looked graceful and very gentle, and smiled and said, "Cousin, I'm here to disturb me."
I smiled and said, "My sister, please sit down if you want to disturb me."
Su Su stopped at the door and saw Yan Ruoyu walking in and walking to the table. She turned around, poured tea for both of us, and then stood beside me.
Seeing Yan Ruoyu just smiling at us, I turned to Susu and said, "I have something to do with Ruoyu, you don't have to serve you anymore, go down and do what you should do."
When Su Su heard this, she immediately understood and said, "Yes."
After saluting us, she left and closed the door.
I walked to the side of the table and looked at Yan Ruoyu standing there with a clever smile on her face. I reached out and made another "please sit" gesture before she sat down.
All day today, I met her for only two meals. Because the atmosphere was suppressed by my heart, I didn’t talk to her. Originally, I hadn’t seen each other for decades and my relatives had become strangers. I didn’t think there was anything wrong, but I didn’t expect her to come to my room to look for me in the evening.
However, when I remembered the way Yan Zicong looked just now, my smile became more cautious.
After she sat down, she smiled and said to me, "I took the liberty and didn't bother my cousin, did you?"
"It's okay, I'm finished my meal, so I have to find something to do to digest food."
"That's right," she said, putting the cloth bag in her hand on the table, taking out a strip from it, a half-embedded embroidered handkerchief, and needlework, and then smiled at me, "I'm idle and have nothing to do, so why don't we sisters chat together."
“…”
I was a little stunned.
I have done embroidery things a lot when I was in Jixiang Village, but I have never had any experience sitting opposite my sisters under a lamp.
It seems to be a little bit like a little daughter's feelings.
I held the edge of the table and slowly sat opposite her.
Yan Ruoyu is younger than me. I am a little surprised that her identity and appearance are beautiful, so why is she not yet married? But after all, she only met today, and even the intimate sisters are hard to say. However, she does give people a feeling of gentleness as spring breeze. She knew that they were all invited back by Xue Qian this time, so she should be wary of some, but no one can show such a woman a cold face to her.
However, the picture that looks full of the little girl's feelings does not make me addicted to it. I am still very sober and look at her calmly.
At this moment, she had already sorted out the embroidery thread and began to continue embroidering along the half-embraced petals. While threading the needle, she smiled and raised her head and said to me: "Cousin, it's a bit pretentious to do this today, but I have something to discuss with my cousin."
"Oh? What's the matter?"
"I want to form an alliance with my cousin. I will help me with what my cousin wants to do."
