Chapter 1430: Chapter 1427: Missing
In her heart, she was sowhat surprised that Li Chun’er wanted to befriend her. Naturally, she didn’t dare to interfere in her affairs. Moreover, being unfamiliar with the Chu family, she kept a very low profile and quietly stayed in the background.
She hadn’t intended to buy any jewelry, but was forcibly pulled by Li Chun’er to choose a hairpin.
In the end, Ye Muyu purchased all the jewelry they had chosen, including what she and Chu Ziluo had chosen, spending more than three hundred taels in total, with Li Chun’er’s share alone costing a hundred taels.
Just as they were about to leave, Li Chun’er was in front of the dressing mirror, having her new headpiece adorned by her maidservants.
As Chu Ziluo was walking towards the door, she was stopped by Miss Liu, who had remained almost invisible. “Miss Chu, thank you Madam Chu for the gift. I am Liu Jiayun. I usually do so needlework at ho. If you don’t mind, I’ll have a maid deliver a thank-you gift to you later.”
“There’s no need to be so polite. My mother is an elder; it’s only right for her to present gifts to the younger generation.” Chu Ziluo continued to smile amicably but didn’t accept her gesture of friendship.
Due to a previous party, she had realized that everyone had their own agendas. No matter how harmless soone seed, they might stab you in the back.
She wouldn’t easily form friendships with unfamiliar people.
Liu Jiayun was a bit disappointed but felt that this was normal.
Ye Muyu and Chu Ziluo strolled around for a while longer and finally went to a rouge shop. After checking on the business and encountering no incidents, she took Chu Ziluo ho.
“Madam, you have returned.” Ye Muyu had just entered when Su i and Chun Xing ca up to her. After changing her clothes, they brought Nuanbao to her.
Ye Muyu held Nuanbao in her arms, seeing him sleep so peacefully, her heart softened, and she placed him beside her.
Su i reported to Ye Muyu, “Madam, sothing has happened to the Huo family.”
“Sothing happened?” Ye Muyu was puzzled.
Suddenly, she recalled eting Huo Hongyan when she left earlier. She guessed, “Could it be Miss Huo that sothing happened to?”
“Madam, how did you know?” Su i was stunned and then frowned. “Did Madam run into Miss Huo?”
“No,” Ye Muyu shook her head. “I just saw Miss Huo hurry out in a carriage when I left this morning.”
“Miss Huo is missing.” Su i, seeing that Madam was not involved with Miss Huo, breathed a small sigh of relief. “Old Madam sent soone to inform you.”
“The servant received the ssenger and didn’t let anyone else know.” Su i said quietly, “The Huo family’s visitor wanted to confirm if Miss Huo was with us. That was sothing the servant herself guessed.”
Ye Muyu frowned, thinking that Huo Hongyan was essentially good-natured. A young girl missing for too long would ruin her life.
“Send Zhu San to find her,” Ye Muyu instructed. “If she is found, ensure her safety. If she is not in danger, don’t intervene.”
“Yes, I’ll give the orders right away,” the servant responded.
Su i left.
Zhu San was the leader of the Scout Team she had established in the capital. He was her trusted confidant, far better than she was at finding people.
Ye Muyu didn’t ntion this to Chu Ziluo.
In the afternoon, after lunch, she followed her usual routine of napping with Nuanbao.
Nuanbao, being young, did not fuss. Her nap was comfortable, and when she awoke and tidied up a bit, she rembered the matter and asked Su i about the situation.
Su i shook her head at her. “Madam, no news has co back yet.”
Ye Muyu frowned slightly at this.
“Let know as soon as the master returns,” she said.
“Yes,” Su i replied.
Ye Muyu headed to the main kitchen to prepare so dairy products.
