"Madam, we don’t know either," Ye Liu began, "As soon as the door opened, this little maid rushed in, clamoring to see you and the Lord Marquis."
"Lord Ye, Madam Ye, please help save her, my young lady is missing, I beg you, save her life."
"There is no Lord Ye here, this place is Old Master Bai’s residence. If you wish to save soone, please seek help from the authorities. Our Old Master is a legitimate businessman; how could he have the capability to rescue anyone?" A guard picked up the young maid and headed out.
But the little maid seed driven to desperation, struggling fiercely, biting and kicking.
As the guard’s grip loosened, she darted inside.
"Where did this little girl co from, causing such a ruckus in soone else’s house?"
The little maid, upon seeing that it was Yang Chuxia speaking, imdiately brightened up, as if a fish had found water.
She flung herself forward and knelt down, "Madam Ye, I know you are Madam Ye, please save my young lady, I beg you, this servant kowtows to you."
Saying this, she banged her head on the ground repeatedly, the top of her head instantly turning red.
"Who are you?"
This ti they were traveling in secret, how could anyone here know of them?
"Madam Ye, this servant is the maid beside Miss Luo Linfei of the Luo Family. My young lady is missing."
Luo Linfei? Yang Chuxia’s expression soured a bit. She rembered that when they first arrived, Luo Linfei went to visit that painter. It was said that the painter was unwilling to take her as a disciple, and later, Luo Linfei returned to the Capital City with her maids.
According to the tiline, they should have left several days ago. Why would her maid appear here?
"Madam Ye, please save my young lady. My lady and the Lord Marquis are cousins, you cannot just let her die."
"What happened? Didn’t your young lady return to the Capital City?" Yang Chuxia asked.
"My young lady intended to return to the Capital City. But after traveling thousands of miles to beco a disciple and achieving nothing, she was unwilling to leave, so she rented a courtyard near the inn. She planned to visit the painter daily if he didn’t agree."
"Yesterday, my young lady heard that the painter liked erald pastries from West Street, and she intended to buy them as a gift for the painter. Who would have thought that on the way back, she encountered a bully, reportedly the young son of the Prefect, who took a fancy to my young lady’s beauty and insisted on taking her back as a personal maid."
"In a mont of desperation, my lady claid we were from the Capital City Luo Residence. The Prefect’s son didn’t believe it, so my young lady showed the Luo Family’s token, but they still refused to let her go. They even said that people from the Luo Residence were better, and he was troubled by not having a way to network with soone from the Capital City. If he married my young lady, he would have soone to rely on in the Capital City. Then those people injured the guards who accompanied us and took my young lady away."
Yang Chuxia was speechless. This Luo Linfei, she truly didn’t know what to say.
Now, with her painting skills perfected, what use is it when yesterday she was kidnapped, and by today, the cooked rice has probably beco a done deal, all efforts gone to waste.
"Where are your guards? Have they returned to the Capital City to report?"
"My young lady’s guards were all captured, and the people in our small rented courtyard were also taken." The little maid cried her eyes out, "The young lady didn’t bring many people, and I was the one preparing the food. Yesterday, I went out to buy ingredients, and when I returned, the place was in chaos."
