The Sickly Scion's Petite Wife Is Sweet And Cool

425 Following the Wind (2)

The capital magistrate remembered that Lord Shen was Song Jingchen’s father-in-law and told him about this.

Of course, there was more or less a hint of some drama happening. It was fine if his father-in-law took care of his mistress, but he was even kidnapped from her bed. No matter how one looked at it, this was very embarrassing.

Song Jingchen’s first thought was that the little girl at home had done it. He didn’t say anything and took the initiative to take on this case.

At the same time, he asked South Wind to return to the Song residence. When he heard that Shen Yijia was not at home, he was even more certain of this guess.

He originally thought that Shen Yijia would bring them to a deserted place to teach them a lesson or kill them. He only brought the search team out of the city to stall for time.

Now it seemed that this girl had clearly brought Shen Pingxiu out of the city.

“Oh.” Shen Yijia scratched her head. “My father is missing. Hurry up and look for him.”

There was no change in her expression, but she didn’t dare to look Song Jingchen in the eye.

An imperceptible smile flashed across Song Jingchen’s eyes. “Go home quickly. I’ll go back early tonight.”

“Alright.” Shen Yijia quickly nodded meekly.

Song Jingchen moved his fingers and resisted the urge to rub her head. He waved his whip and left.

The people he brought looked at each other as if they had seen a ghost. They felt that what they had seen just now was too dreamy.

Lord Song was too gentle.

Although they had only interacted with each other for two days, it seemed to them that his usual aura of keeping strangers away was fake.

“My beautiful husband must have guessed it.” Shen Yijia rubbed her chin and grinned.

When the carriage arrived home, Shen Yijia had just gotten out of the carriage and had yet to stabilize herself when an air-piercing sound attacked her.

Shen Yijia was shocked and spun to avoid it.

When she saw who it was, she raised her eyebrows and drew the long whip at her waist to meet it.

The two figures instantly fought. Mo Yuan frowned and drew her sword to help.

However, before she could go up, the outcome had already been decided.

Xiao Ruoshui looked at her whip that was entangled and could not move. She snorted and threw it down. She said angrily, “Alright, you didn’t look for me after coming to the capital for so many days. If I hadn’t heard my father say it by chance, I wouldn’t have known that you were so heartless.”

Previously, she had been grounded by her father for visiting a brothel. Later on, she secretly ran out a few times. In the end, someone gossiped and caused his parents to quarrel. Helpless, she could only stay at home obediently.

Coincidentally, she was about to get married, so her mother kept her in her room every day to embroider her wedding dress.

It was only today that she heard that Brother Chen had returned to the capital.

When Brother Chen returned to the capital, how could Jiajia not follow him?

Hence, she found out the Song family’s current address and came over.

Shen Yijia rubbed her nose and felt a little guilty. “I just arrived in the capital and was about to settle down before looking for you.”

She couldn’t say that she had forgotten about this person.

Xiao Ruoshui glanced at her. “Really?”

Shen Yijia nodded seriously. “Of course it’s true.”

Xiao Ruoshui snorted proudly. “Even if you’re not free, you should have instructed someone to tell me. If I knew, I would have come to look for you.”

Xiao Ruishui continued, “I don’t care. You were in the wrong first. You have to apologize to me.”

Shen Yijia pinched her fingers. “You’re trying to take advantage of my kindness?” she thought.

The two did not chat for long before the servants of the Xiao family came to call them home. When Shen Yijia returned, Xiao Ruoshui had already been waiting for more than half a day. Even lunch had been served at the Song family’s house.

This was also why Xiao Ruoshui was so angry.

Shen Yijia felt that she was in the wrong and personally sent her to the door. After Xiao Ruoshui left, she sighed deeply.

She had yet to think of a way to tell her that Fan Mingyuan had acknowledged her as his adopted sister.

Shen Yijia returned too late. Madam Li had left food for her in the kitchen. After filling her stomach, she helped deal with the fish.

They had yet to finish the fish from last time, and this time, she brought back so much. They cleaned up and packed the fish for the entire afternoon.

“Sister, are we going to sell fish?”

Shen Yijia could not help with the cured fish and bean sauce. She brought Lin Shao and Bruiser to clean up the courtyard when Bruiser suddenly asked.

He and Lin Shao did not have to go to school and were bored at home, so they wanted to find something to do.

Shen Yijia thought about it seriously for a while. The fish in that pool could indeed be sold for some money, but it was definitely not enough to specialize in this business.

She couldn’t possibly dig another pool to raise fish to sell, right? That wouldn’t earn her much money.

Therefore, she shook her head. “We’re not selling fish. Let’s keep them for ourselves.”

Noticing Bruiser and Lin Shao’s instantly stunned expressions, Shen Yijia also began to think about finding something for the two of them to do.
