Chapter 65: The Ruan Family's Secret Guard
The shopkeeper of Yuxiufang said that everything was normal today, and Ruan Jingtian was busy with things in the shop as usual, and there was nothing wrong. Even because there were not many things in the shop today, Ruan Jingtian left the shop early and wanted to go home early.
Ruan Cixi's hands were shaking.
After Guilan left, she was busy reading those books, and she would spend a while with her grandfather during dinner.
Just now, she wanted to relax a little, remembered the pear blossom brew she was going to make for her grandfather, and was about to start working on it, when she heard the news that her grandfather was gone.
Is it because she neglects to care about her grandfather these days that grandpa will have an accident?
Grandpa will go home early and definitely want to go home and spend more time with her, because grandpa has always felt that sometimes he is too busy with things outside and does not accompany her, and he is very sorry for her, and wants to make up for her more and make up for her lack of fatherly and maternal love.
It's her fault, it's all her fault!
"Miss! Dereliction of duty on the part of subordinates! After Chi Dong knew that Ruan Cixi was coming, he also came to the shop, and as soon as he saw Ruan Cixi, he knelt down, looking like he was pleading.
Chi Dong did not speak as a servant of the Ruan family now.
"Did you find anything?" Ruan Cixi heard her own voice and was terrifyingly cold, cold to the bones of her limbs.
"Nothing was found." Chi Dong looked guilty, and only felt that he was extremely derelict in his duties.
After too long of calm days, his ability has regressed so much!
"How can you be sure that grandpa is missing, and not that something is too late to tell you?" Nguyen Cixi still has a glimmer of hope, she hopes that everything is just a fuss.
“…… The subordinate is the secret guard of the Ruan family. Chi Dong was silent for a while before answering, "Miss has never known about the existence of our secret guard, and the old general has always hidden it from Miss. ”
"There is a special contact between the secret guards, and my subordinates have contacted the secret guard next to the general, but they have not received a response for so long."
Ruan Cixi stiffened.
The Ruan family has secret guards, which is something she didn't know in her previous life!
But that's not the point.
"So, grandpa really could have had an accident, right?" Ruan Cixi's voice was fluttering, his fingers clenched tightly on the teacup in the lounge, and his knuckles were white.
Chi Dong was silent.
"After tonight, there is no news from grandpa, so I will go to Jing Zhaoyin early tomorrow morning." Nguyen Ci Si made a decision.
The current situation is not enough to prove that Ruan Jingtian is missing, and it is not beneficial to rush to find Jing Zhaoyin, Ruan Cixi can only stay up until tomorrow morning.
"How many Dark Guards are there?" Ruan Cixi wanted to know how much strength the Ruan family still had.
Chi Dong hesitated for a moment before he said, "Miss Huiyu, there are a total of twelve people including her subordinates. ”
"Grandpa has one by his side, you are one, so what about the other ten?" Ruan Cixi took a sip of the tea that was already cold.
"There is actually one next to Miss, and the other nine are not in the capital." Chi Dong reported truthfully.
Ruan Cixi's movements paused slightly.
She has a secret guard by her side......
So the first two times she secretly went out at night......
Ruan Cixi's head hurts more and more, so things are tricky, does grandpa already know?
"Who is the secret guard next to me, can you get him out?" Ruan Cixi wanted to call the person out to recognize him, and asked him if he would have any clues.
Chi Dong hesitated again, sighed and said, "The secret guard beside Miss is different from the other eleven of us. He was the most powerful of us, and he only listened to the orders of the general, that is, the father of the young lady. ”
Chi Dong paused for a moment and continued to explain, "I haven't seen him for a while, and I can only occasionally feel his presence. The last order he received was to protect Miss in secret, but before Miss had an accident in the Star Picking Tower, he pleaded guilty and used the punishment after he came back, but he didn't explain why he didn't protect Miss. ”
"We can't call him, and there are only a few times when the old general can let him appear."
Ruan Cixi: "......" She didn't know what mood she should have.
Even the panic that I just learned of my grandfather's disappearance dissipated a little.
