“Hmm.” Xu Zhengping sighed again.

Whether they could find Miss Zhuang was uncertain.

If they could find her, all would be well.

If they couldn’t…

Xu Zhengping rubbed his furrowed brow.

He had heard from Ding Gaochang that Miss Zhuang had lost her parents and now only had a little sister at home. If Miss Zhuang had really encountered disaster, he would take her sister under his wing, treat her as his foster daughter and look after her.

That would be his way of offering what little help he could.

Those criminals, they really had the audacity. If they could capture them, they surely should be severely punished!

“Sir, Sir!”

A government official ran over in a hurry, “Two people have arrived outside, driving two carriages.”

“They say…they say they’ve captured the criminals who kidnapped the young lady!”

What?!

Xu Zhengping was shocked and immediately went outside, “Quickly, take me there.”

To see if Zhuang Qingning was among them…

Chu Jinnian and Jing Zhao arrived at Qingzhuyuan.

Ning Feng knew earlier on that Chu Jinnian would be returning in a day or two, but he didn’t expect him to return so quickly. He hurriedly made preparations and welcomed him in person.

However, when he saw Chu Jinnian walking briskly into the courtyard with a young lady in his arms, he was momentarily stumped.

But it wasn’t his place to question the master’s affairs.

Ning Feng quickly instructed his servant, “Rush to prepare a side room and get two maids to take care of the lady.”

The servants busily complied.

Although Qingzhuyuan rarely had guests and the rooms always remained vacant, Ning Feng was diligent and often instructed his servants to clean up. So, at this time, when it was said to ‘tidy up’, they only needed to prepare soft pillows, candles and other simple items.

A servant holding a lantern led the way, and Chu Jinnian placed Zhuang Qingning on the bed.

He reached out to touch her forehead.

Thankfully, she did not have a fever.

After such an ordeal, the fear in her heart, coupled with the sedative she had been given, and the long journey they had rushed through in the heavy dew of the deep night, it would be easy to fall ill. It was a relief she was fine for now.

The cut on Zhuang Qingning’s hand had stopped bleeding. Chu Jinnian asked someone to fetch some medicine. After cleaning the wound, he applied the medicine.

“Prepare some food and hot water.”

Chu Jinnian said, “And this place needs to be taken care of properly, be sure to check on her condition throughout the night. If she has a fever, report it immediately.”

“Yes.” Ning Feng agreed, but was even more perplexed as he glanced at Zhuang Qingning who was lying on the bed.

Why did he feel that he had seen her somewhere before? But he couldn’t remember where.

But it didn’t matter. Since Chu Jinnian had instructed him to take care of her, he should do it well. As for who she was, it wasn’t important.
