When Nianyang returned to the classroom, the classmates who had been gossiping about her ca up one by one to sincerely apologize, promising not to jump to conclusions again.
The farce seed to have settled, and just when they thought they could finally have so peace, two days later Yang Haiyan still hadn’t returned to class or to her dormitory. The director of studies hadn’t received a leave request either.
The school took this matter seriously. They called Yang Haiyan’s parents, who also said that she hadn’t returned ho, and now the school was in a panic.
With the college entrance examination approaching, Yang Haiyan, as a candidate, disappeared right under the school’s nose, especially during a sensitive ti with pirates rampant. This clearly indicated that Yang Haiyan had encountered an accident.
The situation caused a mont of panic because if sothing happened to Yang Haiyan, it ant the pirates were hiding in their town and even kidnapping female students. It was truly terrifying.
Nianyang was also very worried, but she wasn’t concerned about Yang Haiyan, rather she was worried about Li Tingyan’s current situation.
Because they had been sent to the school to protect the students, yet Yang Haiyan t with misfortune just days after their arrival. Nianyang was worried that this could negatively affect Li Tingyan.
That evening, she went to the tent where they were stationed behind the school to find him. Nianyang had seen the guards while she was in the county.
The two young n imdiately recognized Nianyang, "You’re Cold Yama’s wife, Saozi, you’re looking for Cold Yama, he’s in the second-last tent at the back."

In the tent, Li Tingyan was having a eting with several trusted subordinates, discussing strategies to catch the pirates.
Since Yang Haiyan went missing just days after they arrived at the school, it could already be confird that she was kidnapped by the pirates.
This also ant it was their inadequate protection that led to the incident. The pirates were targeting their Sea rchant, but instead, others were hard.
Now, the authorities were very angry, demanding that they must imdiately capture the pirates, rescue the female student, and secure the supplies.
"Manager Li, since it’s confird the pirates are in this town, let’s start searching the entire town tomorrow. I don’t believe those bastards can escape!" Xiao Wu suggested.
"No, if we search the town, it’ll cause too much commotion. Not to ntion the pirates might take the opportunity to escape, it would also cause panic among the people. In that case, we wouldn’t achieve anything," Sheng Feng rationally analyzed.
Li Tingyan pondered, "In my opinion, the gang has a lot of supplies and a female student, they must have a hideout where they can stash things safely.
With all that stuff, they can’t stay in the town without being noticed. The only places that can perfectly hide them are in the deep mountains to the southwest and northeast of the town!"
Dong Hu’s eyes lit up, "Manager Li, do you an we should search the mountains?"
"No, we can’t search the mountains!"
Nianyang imdiately walked inside to stop them upon hearing their conversation.
"Saozi, why are you here?"
The people inside were startled for a mont, then got up to greet Nianyang.
Sheng Feng felt a bit awkward seeing Nianyang, realizing he was at fault previously, he called her Saozi awkwardly.
Nianyang didn’t even spare him a glance and directly said to Li Tingyan, "Ah Yan, you can’t search the mountains because the pirates must have found a safe place to hide. Crossing the mountain leads to the border, and they definitely plan to sell the supplies there.
For large-scale pirates like these, to ensure a successful getaway, they will set traps in the mountains. If you blindly search, sothing major will happen!"
