"You, you don't lack money either..."
He Kalieno said weakly, her face gradually turning pale, her voice feeble.
He Kaqing Tang supported her, "You rest well, I'll handle everything else."
"Mm."
She nodded, "How long will it take?"
"At least a week."
"So long?"
"Although it's using technology, it's not so advanced that reading memories only takes a day or two. You silly girl, what are you always thinking about?"
He Kaqing Tang helped He Kalieno to her room to rest and called for a doctor.
Then she secretly sent someone to fetch Qing Muye and sealed off all news about Qing Muye to the public.
...
Yi Pin Ju.
As the long wait continued, Meng Jingwei grew more and more anxious, her mind filled with everything concerning Qing Muye.
After a night of torment, she had not received any news from Qing Muye.
It was not until the first light of dawn that she managed to doze off on the sofa.
As everyone from Yi Pin Ju had gone out to look for Qing Muye, Yi Pin Ju was closed for the entire day.
Tang Si and Shi Ran woke up, and Shi Ran, knowing there would be no breakfast, went downstairs to prepare it.
Knock, knock, knock—
Tang Si knocked on the door and pushed it open, walking in.
Meng Jingwei, who had slept for two hours, woke up. Seeing Tang Si enter the living room, she got up and asked, "Is there any news about Ah Ye?"
As she spoke, her pupils sparkled with hope and anticipation.
Tang Si shook his head helplessly, "Not yet."
Seeing how haggard and exhausted she looked, with dark circles under her eyes, he asked again, "You, you didn't sleep last night?"
Meng Jingwei turned away, lost in thought, and slumped powerlessly onto the sofa, dejected and dispirited. "The whole night, and not a single piece of news. Where on earth did he go?"
"Little Pepper, if I may say, Second Brother has a guardian angel. Don't worry too much, he'll be fine."
He walked to Meng Jingwei's side to comfort her, but even he didn't believe his own words.
They sat in the living room for a while. Shi Ran came upstairs with the food and entered the living room, "Sister Wei, Ah Si, it's time to eat. I steamed dumplings and cooked porridge for you."
Shi Ran thoughtfully placed the breakfast on the table, then took the tray and said, "There are also two vegetable dishes and heated milk. I'll go get them."
Saying that, she turned and went downstairs again.
Tang Si looked at the extremely anxious yet helpless Meng Jingwei and also felt worried, but he still comforted her, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Come and eat something quickly. If you don't take care of yourself, how will you find Second Brother later? Health is the foundation of revolution."
With Qing Muye gone, not only did he have to find a way to locate him, but he also bore the responsibility of protecting Meng Jingwei.
Under his persuasion, Meng Jingwei got up to go to the bathroom to wash up.
Not long after, Shi Ran entered the living room with two vegetable dishes and hot milk.
Not seeing Meng Jingwei in the living room, Shi Ran looked around. "Where is Sister Wei?"
Tang Si shrugged and sighed, "She's too worried about Second Brother, distracted. I just asked her to wash up, she'll be here soon."
Shi Ran also sighed and sat beside Tang Si, sighing with emotion, "Sister Wei and President Qing love each other so much, she must be very worried about him."
As she spoke, she moved her chair closer to Tang Si and whispered in his ear, "President Qing will be fine, right?"
"It's hard to say," Tang Si shook his head. "Beset on all sides, surrounded by danger, Second Brother is very likely to be seriously injured. Without anyone to protect him at such a time, it's hard to imagine the outcome."
It was a pity that this was not Lancheng. No matter how worried he was, he was unable to do anything.
In order to come to the Hidden Clan, Second Brother had been planning for half a year, but even the strongest dragon could not overcome the local snakes. This was ultimately not his territory, and everything he did was very passive.
