Ch 19 – You Please Go to Sleep a Bit Early

Su Tang deeply looked at Ru Yi. This woman is indeed difficult to deal with, an expert at seizing opportunities in dealing with opponents. However, ah, she doesn't yet understand "the most pressing priority right now." When all is said and done, what's the meaning of this!

Su Tang coldly smiled. "Everyone is extremely worried now and young lady Ru Yi is still in a leisurely mood to sow dissension!"

Don't mistakenly think that these words of yours can be veiled from other people, milking things for all they're worth. You want to camouflage criticism then I'll stubbornly deal with you out in the open!

"You!" Ru Yi didn't expect Su Tang would counterattack and accomplish a lot with little effort by clever maneuvering. The criticism was taken and turned around. Ru Yi received but couldn't dodged. She glanced sideways at lao taitai and Song Shi An. The former merely slightly wrinkled her eyebrows while the latter already was extremely impatient. Ru Yi 's heart already knew she had failed and obliged to sound the retreat halting the battle. Her eyelids hung down, and neither cold nor warm said, "Ru Yi doesn't dare. Furen is overly sensitive."

Su Tang didn't feel like getting entangled with her at this critical juncture. Xuan Zi whereabouts was extremely important now, all other things were not worth mentioning. She turned around to look at Song Shi An, but saw him directly looking at her, his eyes profound. She was unable to distinguish his mood. The two pairs of eyes were face to face for a split second, then he shifted his line of sight.

The people looking for the missing person came and went quite a few times. However, all  of them were unable to locate Xuan Zi's whereabouts. Song Shi An's facial expression became more and more unsightly, his clasped fists tightened even more. Previously, the manor had no one to take charge so he stayed behind. This moment his worried heart was again difficult to restrain. He faced lao taitai saying, "Grandson wants to go out to look for him. I ask grandmother to take charge here!"

Saying this he turned around and left.

Right at this moment, a young male servant whose entire face wore a happy expression ran in and yelled, "Xiao shao ye has been found! Xiao shao ye has been found!"

Lao taitai heard what was said. Rejoicing, she stood up from the chair. Su Tang almost cried tears of happiness. The expressions of Xi Yuan's four beauties were all different, except for the faint joy on Ru Hua's face, all of the other three were more or less somewhat disappointed.

Xuan Zi was ushered in by an elderly maid servant. Perhaps he was told that the manor was frantically searching for him as his small face carried agitation. Entering the room, he saw the hall which was full of people assembled together. He caught sight of Fu Rong kneeling on the side along with every servant of Chang Xin house. His eyes were evasive and uneasy.

Timidly walking to the front of Song Shi An, Xuan Zi pulled and pulled at his clothes. Lifting his small face, his low voice said, "Daddy, I've returned."

"Where did you go?" Song Shi An squatted down, his face again unable to hold a serious expression. He asked, merely deeply concerned, resembling an extremely loving father.

At lightning speed, Xuan Zi glanced at Su Tang, who was standing behind Song Shi An, and hung down his head without saying anything.

Lao taitai asked that old maid servant, "Where did you find him?"

The elderly female servant answered, "That entrance at the northwest corner which earlier was put aside as useless. Nubi searched over there and unexpectedly caught sight of the door opening. Startled, I looked once more to see xiao shao ye entering, squeezing in.
