Sui Qianying sat on the side and comforted her, ”Mother, don't cry anymore. You are not in good health anyway, if you wait for Iris to come back, and she sees how haggard you made yourself for her, how will she blame herself in her heart?”
She said, ”Your daughter-in-law is right. Wipe the tears out of her eyes. Perhaps your father is more reliable this time. He really did find Qirin City very quickly.”
Yuan Shi wiped her tears and only nodded her head. Although she didn't really believe those words, she was still willing to hold on to her hope.
Later on, Hua Zimo saw that his mother and daughter-in-law had not come back yet and heard that the three of them went to the Spirit Origin Temple. Looking at the color of the sky, Hua Zimo started to feel anxious.
Just as he was about to go out and look for someone, he saw an attendant from the Natal Palace coming over. ”Young Master Cousin, the young mistress and her young mistress are currently at the Duke of Ling's manor.” I don't think I'll be back tonight. ”
Normally, if nothing happened, Ah Niang and A Ying wouldn't act this way. Even if it was someone from the outer sect, he wouldn't be so hasty to explain it to him. Besides, he didn't seem to be talking about Iris.
In an instant, Hua Zimo asked with a serious face, ”Did something happen to Iris?”
The manservant did not know how to reply. He stammered and finally replied, ”This little one does not know how to proceed with this matter. If not, then Young Master Biao will go take a look himself? ”
Hua Zimo thought, if I don't go now, I won't be able to relax. Even if he slept in a room by himself, he would still be tossing and turning in worry. Since that was the case, he might as well investigate the situation.
Following the attendant, they walked in the direction of the Duke of Ling's manor. By the time they reached the mansion, the Yuan clan was already asleep.
Hua Zimo washed his face and rinsed his mouth. Then, he lied down on the bed with Sui Qianying and Zhexiu and asked, ”What happened today? Since his mother was already asleep, what about Iris? She should be fine, right? ”
Maybe it was because of her brother and sister's reactions, Hua Zimo felt empty inside, hopefully, it wasn't because his sister was in danger.
In the end, Sui Qianying still told him about what happened today!
As Hua Zimo listened, his face turned ashen!
His hand gripped the cup tightly, and his knuckles turned white. ”Damn it! So, we still haven't found out who it is. Those who don't have eyes, do they dare to touch my sister? ”
Sui Qianying nodded, ”The kidnapping at that time seemed to have been precisely arranged. So we basically have very little information right now. It is already very good that we can find him. ”
Hua Yuan only felt that she had been jolted for a long time before being roughly pushed aside and tied to a place with her hands behind her back. All she knew was that that place was very dark, very, very, very black …
Hua Yuan did not know whether it was because she was wearing a veil or because her eyes were covered. In fact, she had even guessed whether or not her eyes had been blinded!
However, she really couldn't remember when she'd interacted with someone like him.
After an unknown period of time, the door suddenly opened. Hua Yuan could feel a ray of light piercing into her. Following that, someone put down the bowl of food, ”Eat.”
It was a man's voice, but he didn't know who it belonged to.
Hua Yuan was able to endure being locked up in such a place for the first time for the time being. However, on the second day, Hua Yuan would have to recite the scripture to him over and over again. If anything went wrong, his anger would be ignited!
Fortunately, it had only been three days of torture. On the fourth day, someone released her. When she took off her eyepatch, Hua Yuan could see the light coming from her eyes in an instant. He still couldn't get used to it.
Instinctively, he stretched out his hand to cover his eyes. Only after a long while did he look at the man sitting in the seat of honor. Looking at his back, Hua Yuan felt a sense of familiarity. She frowned and asked, ”Who are you? Why did you tie me up here? ”
That person suddenly said to Hua Yuan, ”I believe you've forgotten about me since we've met before. However, I've watched you do all of your TV shows in one episode!” ”Well, Iris?”
