The fierce summer sun beat down, and the main hall of the Xie Mansion was filled with people.
Xie Suzhi and Shen Siyi were studying a topographic map. Second Master Xie and Xu Jingxi sat with grave expressions, watching Fang Qingdai, who had just rushed over.
Fang Qingdai held a piece of Liang Yici's clothing, pleading with Shen Ningning.
"Ningning, we can't find Yici anywhere. The last person to see her was a woodcutter, who said she ran into the mountain range of Taiyu Mountain. The mountains there are deep and vast, nothing but untamed wilderness. I'm terrified something will happen to her out there all alone."
Seeing Fang Qingdai's red-rimmed eyes, Shen Ningning said comfortingly, "Aunt Qingdai, don't panic. I'll go ask Wolf Father for help. We'll definitely find her."
True to her word, Shen Ningning left immediately, taking a carriage straight back to Wolf Mountain.
When Mo Lingwei heard the news at the palace, he also dispatched troops to help with the search.
