While the Sorcerer King and Zhou Jin were treating the three of them, Ping’er brought a bowl of porridge to Yu Wan’s room.
Yu Wan was still awake. She sat quietly by the window and waited for news. She did not cry and make a fuss about the husband she had lost. In fact, her reaction was very calm.
“Young Madam.” Ping’er placed the steaming porridge on the table. “It’s porridge made by Grandpa Bao.”
“Grandpa Bao isn’t asleep yet?” Yu Wan took the porridge. She wasn’t hungry, but she needed to eat.
Ping’er was worried that she wouldn’t eat, but her heart ached when she saw her eat spoonful by spoonful. “Grandpa Bao is worried about you and Young Master Yan.”
Yu Wan took another bite of porridge and wiped the corners of her lips with a handkerchief. “There’s nothing to worry about. Yan Jiuchao promised me that he won’t leave me easily. I believe him.”
Ping’er did not know how to reply.
Even a maidservant like her understood the severity of the situation after such a big thing happened. However, Young Madam refused to accept the truth. It was not strange when she thought about it. Young Madam and Young Master had a good relationship. They had children and were about to give birth to a new child. At this critical juncture, Young Master was gone. If it were anyone else, they would probably deceive themselves.
“Is Sister Nie alright?” Yu Wan asked.
Pinger shook her head. “Miss Nie is fine. Third Elder came over. He’s guarding
Miss Nie in the room and asked me to come and serve Young Madam.”
Yu Wan said, “Go tell Grandpa Bao to rest quickly. He’s old. Don’t let him suffer with us.”
Pinger said, “Young Madam, Grandpa Bao also asked me to persuade you. You’re pregnant, not like them. You don’t have to wait here…”
Yu Wan nodded. “You’re right. I really shouldn’t have waited.”
“That’s right! Then hurry up…” Before Ping’er could finish speaking, she saw Yu Wan put down the bowl of porridge in her hand, stand up, and walk out of the room.
Ping’er was stunned. “Young Madam! Where are you going?
Yu Wan smiled and said, “I’ll go look for Yan Jiuchao.”
“But…” Ping’er chased after her and wanted to stop her, but Yu Wan had already walked out ot tne courtyard.
“Let her go,” Chef Bao said.
“Grandpa Bao.” Ping’er turned around and bowed to Chef Bao, who was not far away. “It’s so late. Is Young Madam in danger?”
Chef Bao said, “There are Third Elder’s people everywhere here. She’s not in danger. She’s worried about Jiuchao. Instead of forcing her to stay here, it’s better to let her find him.”
“Grandpa Bao, go and rest. Young Madam is very worried about you.”
Chef Bao smiled and said, “I’m old and don’t sleep much. Go and rest. You’ll be busy when they come back.”
“I’ll go take care of the little masters,” Ping’er said.
“No need. I’ll look after them,” Chef Bao said. Ping’er paused. “Then… I’ll go back to my room first.”
“Go.” Chef Bao waved his hand.
After Ping’er left, Chef Bao entered the room and came to the three little eggs’ bed. The three little eggs were sleeping soundly, but their sleeping posture was not good. Of course, Er’bao’s sleeping posture was good, but Xiaobao and Dabao wished they could roll to the end of the bed and hit the wall.
Chef Bao looked at the three cute little fellows and smiled dotingly.
No one understood the pain of losing a family member better than him. He had searched for more than thirty years and it had hurt for more than thirty years. Now, he could still talk and laugh. It was not that he was numb, but he had learned to accept this pain. However, he did not want Wan to be like this.
He hoped that Wan could find Yan Jiuchao, even though the chances of her finding him were not high.
So what? No matter where you are, I won’t give up looking for you, he thought. That’s probably what he’s living for.
Chef Bao sat down at the head of the bed and leaned against the bedpost. He coughed softly and closed his eyes tiredly.
On the other hand, Yu Wan asked for directions and came to the place where Shadow Thirteen and the others were searching. If she hadn’t personally made a trip, Yu Wan probably wouldn’t have known that Yan Jiuchao had brought the Saint King so far in just a few breaths.
This was a forest. Three sides were surrounded by mountains, and one side was a deep pool. It happened when they’re halfway up the mountain, and one could see half of the destroyed mountainside with the naked eye. As for where Yan Jiuchao had gone, everyone was searching vigorously.
“Young Madam, why are you here?” Shadow Six was the first to see Yu Wan. He ran towards her with a torch.
Yu Wan said, “I came to see how your search is going.”
Shadow Six pointed at the destroyed hill and said to Yu Wan, “The Saint King should have died with Young Master there. I hope Young Master dodged in time..”
