Chapter 535: Chapter 535: The Wind Rises, The Clouds Surge
It seems like something very important to say.
Liu Sisi’s eyes rolled, and she coughed lightly, covering her mouth shyly.
“I drank too much water this morning before going out, and now I’m a little urgent. Where is the nearest restroom around here?”
A lady next to her also lightly covered her mouth, “Is this Mrs. Di’s first time at Mrs. Ran’s home? The restroom is just around the corner on your right, Mrs. Di, you’ll see it in a moment as you walk.”
“Thank you so much.”
Liu Sisi did not stand on ceremony, and after speaking, she got up and quickly walked in the direction indicated by the lady.
As she turned the corner, Xue Lan hurried over. “Madam, something has happened!”
“What happened?”
“Just now, my dad asked Xue Lan to deliver a message, saying that Old Master came to find you two quarters ago, and he and Old Master went in separate directions. But when they turned back, they couldn’t find the Old Master.” Xue Lan looked nervous.
“Has Yelei arrived? Did he go to the other side and not meet up with us?” Liu Sisi speculated casually.
“But, my dad found this near that rockery earlier.”
Xue Lan extended her hand and held up an object in front of Liu Sisi.
Liu Sisi casually picked it up and was immediately shocked!
“Isn’t this the jade pendant that Yelei wears?”
This jade pendant was worn by Di Yelei this morning. She personally put it on him before he left the house. The beads on it were also tied by her hand. Her craftsmanship was not good, and there was still a small imperfection that outsiders could not see, she would definitely not mistake it!
“Where did Da Niu find this?”
“My dad said he found it by the rockery in the wing courtyard.” Xue Lan also seemed anxious.
Liu Sisi thought for a moment: “Where is your dad right now?”
“He’s just outside this door waiting for you, ma’am.”
“Let’s go over and take a look.” Liu Sisi said and quickly walked over. Sure enough, she saw Da Niu.
“… If it were not for the fact that I was searching separately with Old Master for Madam, I wouldn’t have dared to go there. When I turned back, I saw two people sneaking by, carrying a huge hemp bag. Out of curiosity, I went in the direction they came from, and then I found this. The more I thought about that hemp bag, the more I felt something was wrong, so I asked Xue Lan to inform you.”
As Da Niu spoke, he pointed to the courtyard over there: “Madam, this is where I found it, what should we do now?”
Liu Sisi’s hands couldn’t help but clench and her body trembled. Could it be that they had made their move again?
“You all quickly contact them and order them to do whatever it takes to find Old Master as soon as possible and not let the other party’s treacherous plan succeed.”
“Yes, Madam.” Da Niu hurriedly took his leave.
“Madam, what should we do now?” Xue Lan anxiously asked.
“Don’t worry, this matter cannot be rushed. We must remain calm and not let others see any flaws.”
Liu Sisi was the type of person who became more sober in critical situations: “Let’s go tell Mrs. Ran and make sure no one gets suspicious before we find the Old Master.”
There was still a large group of noble ladies gathered, laughing and talking.
“What happened to Mrs. Di?”
Seeing Liu Sisi.s hand on her waist, Mrs. Ran hurriedly asked.
Liu Sisi pressed hard on her stomach: “I think I ate something bad this morning, and my stomach is still upset. I really want to lie down.”
“You are tired. You should take a good rest. I’ve already asked the maid to clean the guest room. Why don’t you go over there and lie down?”
Mrs. Ran also said casually, with an inquisitive look on her face.
