As he said that, he pulled Su Nian'an and ran out. Su Nian'an followed reluctantly.

After leaving the door, I asked the maid outside the door. The maid said: "Master Li took Butler Xu out. I don't know where he went."

Li Ling'er hated the fact that iron cannot become steel, "Brother, are you planning to break the jar?"

Su Nian'an was speechless and said, "Why do you still care what he does?"

Li Ling'er glanced at Su Nian'an and said, "I'm afraid that he will be affected by your incident and do something outrageous."

Soon, the two men, led by the maid, searched the nearby rooms but could not find Li Yue.

Li Ling'er shook her head helplessly, "Let's go! I originally wanted to find someone to pay the bill, but now I have to pay it myself."

When the two of them walked outside the villa, they saw a familiar figure following Xu Yuan from a distance. Who else could it be if it wasn't Li Yue.

But what he did at this time made people a bit dumbfounded.

I saw him squeezing out a few tears from time to time, lowering his head and rubbing in front of Xu Yuan. He looked up full of grievances, and looked down with a strange expression.

Xu Yuan was already a little overwhelmed. She really wanted to escape, but she couldn't.

Li Ling'er's face turned dark instantly, she ran forward and slapped Li Yue on the head.

"Can you please have a little face?"

Li Yue was shocked, "Who is trying to ruin my good deeds?"

When she turned around and saw that it was Li Ling'er, her expression immediately changed, "Sister, brother is feeling miserable! I'm so disappointed that I lost my composure!"

As he spoke, his eyes glanced at Su Nian'an, who turned away from him with a look of disgust.

The disappointment in Li Yue's eyes became even worse, and he turned his head towards Xu Yuan again.

Li Ling'er suddenly became angry, grabbed his ear and pulled him aside.

Li Yue shouted: "It hurts, it hurts! Let go!"

Li Ling'er ignored him and pulled him three meters away before letting go.

Xu Yuan also quietly breathed a sigh of relief, bowed to Li Ling'er, and then left as if running away with her personal maid.

Like a defeated rooster, Li Yue followed Li Ling'er out dejectedly.

As he walked, he muttered, "If you want to leave, you go! I want to continue to enjoy here! Sister Xu said that new people will come in a few days, and she wants me to come then!"

Su Nian'an's eyes narrowed and he stopped, "How many days will it take?"

Li Yue almost couldn't hold on and bumped into Li Ling'er, "I didn't say how many days, let me come back in three days."

"Three days later?" Su Nian'an thought carefully, stopped asking, and walked outside the villa.

Li Yue became more and more confused. Of course, he knew that he couldn't find out the reason, so he followed him silently.

Before leaving, Li Yue was arranged to pay the bill. He was convinced that Miss Su had to pay for such a thing by herself. No matter how much he thought, he felt aggrieved.

I really wanted to hold my neck and let her pay by herself, but when Su Nian'an got impatient and looked back, she still happily paid the money with a smile.

Finally, while paying back, he cursed himself, "I'm so damned good! I have to help pay for the people I like when they go out to play. I'm such a waste."

On the carriage back, Su Nian'an didn't say much. Li Ling'er felt that everything Su Nian'an did today had a strange aura, so she didn't say anything either.

After a long time, when they were about to enter the county town, Su Nian'an looked at Li Ling'er and said, "Miss Li, can I meet your father?"

Li Ling'er frowned slightly, "I rarely see him during this period. Do you have anything important to do?"

Su Nian'an shook his head, "Forget it, we will report to him after we find out the matter more clearly."

Li Ling'er looked confused, "What exactly is Shopkeeper Su checking?"

Su Nian'an told her in general about the inexplicable disappearance of children, boys and girls in Qiantang City.

Li Ling'er took a breath of cold air, "Is this kind of thing true?"

Su Nian'an looked serious, "Based on what we know so far, we are inseparable."

Li Ling'er immediately responded: "As long as they hear about this kind of thing, no one will be willing to stay out of it, not to mention that it is still under the rule of my father, and such a thing is not allowed to happen."

"I fully support you. Let's find out first and then report to father."

Su Nian'an nodded, "Then you can help me check a person first. The eldest son of He Xueding, the magistrate of Qiantang County, is said to be serving under a big shot in the county."

"related to him?"

Su Nian'an nodded slightly, "It involves a lot, maybe he will be the breakthrough point."

Li Ling'er pondered for a moment, "This should be relatively easy to investigate. The county magistrate is not a small person."

"Also, do you think there is a relatively remote place near the county town that can accommodate hundreds of people without being discovered?"

"Oh? Did you find anything else?"

"Didn't Li Yue just say that a new batch will arrive at Yuquan Villa in three days? Now, these so-called newcomers might already be receiving training from those scum!"

Li Ling'er was stunned, "New here? Training."

"Yes, we just looked around Yuquan Villa, and there should be no suitable place for training."

An idea flashed in Su Nian'an's mind and he murmured: "That's not right. There is no suitable place as far as we can see, so what about the places we can't see? Maybe there are!"

Without waiting for Li Ling'er to speak, Su Nian'an said quickly: "Do you have the construction drawings of Yuquan Villa? Is there a huge underground space underneath it?"

Li Ling'er's heart moved slightly, "Shopkeeper Su has wild ideas, but it's really possible, but how are we going to investigate a place like this!"

Su Nian'an also frowned when he heard this, and now he fell into a dead end again.

Su Nian'an didn't come up with a good idea until he arrived at Li Ling'er's residence, a small manor next to the Governor's Mansion.

Li Ling'er first arranged for people to investigate the eldest son of County Magistrate He.

Su Nian'an also temporarily stayed at Li Ling'er's manor, and they needed to discuss many things together. Of course, Li Yue did not come with him this time.

Su Nian'an was happy and quiet. During dinner, she asked Li Ling'er about the follow-up to the last teaching of Baduanjin. Although she kept receiving reminders from Yu Jieyin, she still attached great importance to the feedback on the results.

Speaking of this, Li Ling'er was a little excited, "My father refused at first, but couldn't stand my brother's insistence, so he finally agreed to give it a try. Then my father couldn't stop the car and asked all the defenders to practice. That's it.

The training duration has been extended and the overall quality of the garrison has been greatly improved."

Su Nian'an nodded, "As long as it works, if possible, it can be fully promoted among the defenders."

Li Ling'er agreed very much. There are always various things happening in places nowadays. The local garrison of a county is the cornerstone of a stable place. If the garrison can become stronger, then of course the training can continue.

At night, news came from Li Ling'er's men that they found the man, whose name was He Ye, who was working as an errand at Chang Shi Mansion.
