ome in to help me find my mother, but they say they can only help if I sign a contract with them."But since I signed the contract, I have to leave here. I'm afraid that if Maria comes looking for me a..."Miss, I was also worried about your safety. I heard that the old house in the county town had been sold, and I thought that's why you came here in such a hurry to make sure you were safe."

This Mr. Li, with his temples streaked with gray, was a master of words, leaving half spoken and letting the listener fill in the rest.

The ripples had settled, but Li Guanxi showed no intention of letting the other person sit down. Holding a handkerchief in his hand, his eyes were red-rimmed as he spoke:

The old house in the county town was sold by me, under instructions from my steward. After my father's passing, rumors spread through the city that he had left a fortune for me. At only twelve years old, I was terrified. Having finished my father's funeral arrangements, I could only seek refuge on our estate.

If there were truly so much money in our family, even if we could afford ginseng every day to prolong my father's life, why would he leave me behind and depart so early

I still had someone specifically go to Li Mansion in Beijing to report the news of my father's passing. I thought my uncle would come to support me, but three months after my father's funeral was complete, only you came to visit.

Li Guan, upon hearing this, changed color and immediately knelt down to plead guilty.

"Little one, I didn't see Miss. I wonder if you are well My words were out of line and caused Miss to be unhappy. I will take the punishment when I return home."

Miss Bai has wrongly accused her Master. Upon learning of your father's passing, the Master dispatched Young Master Ji to Jiangnan for the funeral.

"Really"

Ripple stopped her tears, asked in surprise, then frowned and said:

Where is the other person I didn't see them.

After finishing, he turned his head to look at Wu Guanjia.

"Miss, if Master had come to mourn, how could I possibly conceal it Moreover, you were at the mourning hall, and you saw all those who came to pay their respects."

"Yes! I haven't seen my cousin."

The ripples once again threw the problem back onto Li Guan.

"This is also the reason for my visit. The young master disappeared on his way to pay respects here, and we have already reported it to the authorities."

"Could this be true"me, Eunuch Cao did not object. As this was the border region, small bands of Qiang wolf tribe people often harassed travelers, especially a long convoy like theirs, stretching four miles.The people of...
