When Zhao Fei saw his benefactor wailing, he grew anxious. "Benefactor, please don’t cry! Even if you don’t know where your home is, it’s not hopeless. We just need to think of another way. Crying won’t solve the problem, will it?" Zhao Fei quickly took her into his arms, patting her back to soothe her Qi as he comforted her. Upon hearing his words, Xiaosuisui stopped crying. Her large, tear-filled eyes blinked; a solution had appeared. Zhao Fei had been comforting his benefactor. When she finally stopped crying, he heaved a sigh of relief. But just as he relaxed, he sensed something was amiss. She’s stopped crying, but she shouldn’t be *this* quiet, should she? "Benefactor!" Zhao Fei called out tentatively. "Benefactor?" he called out again. Zhao Fei carefully laid her down, only to realize his benefactor had fallen asleep... Shaking his head, he chuckled. He simply sat on the deck, holding her gently in his arms, afraid to move a muscle. 「Meanwhile, at the Bright Moon Pavilion branch」 Madam Ji was so anxious she felt dizzy. This was the second time her precious little darling had disappeared without a trace. Oh, heavens! I’m an old woman; can you please not play such jokes on me? "Mother! Please sit down and rest. I assure you, I’ve already sent people to find Seventh Uncle. I’ve asked him to request that the Emperor have the city gates guarded. Any child resembling Suisui who attempts to leave the city will be stopped. "As long as she’s still in the city, we can find Suisui!" Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭⚫𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦⚫𝘯𝘦𝘵 Ji Youcheng, wearing his usual veil, looked on helplessly as his mother paced in distress. "What’s the use of just saying these things? "Suisui is still so young. If a maid hadn’t seen her fly away with Feifei, I would have worried she’d fallen into the water. "You’re her uncle! Why aren’t you worried? Why aren’t you out looking for her too? What are you doing just standing here?" Madam Ji was terribly worried and, in her anger, pointed at Ji Youcheng’s nose as she continued to scold him. "Look at you! You’re supposed to be a head proprietor, yet you can’t even manage a painted pleasure boat properly! It’s all superficial with you. Couldn’t you have taken precautions? Couldn’t you have installed some barriers on the boat to prevent people from flying off?" Ji Youcheng: This misdirected anger is a bit much, isn’t it? "What’s with that look? "Why are you staring at me like that? "Isn’t that painted pleasure boat yours?" Ji Youcheng quickly nodded. "And did it, or did it not, lack protective measures? "Did my Xiaosuisui fly out because of that?" Ji Youcheng nodded again. "So, isn’t it your fault?" Ji Youcheng kept nodding. After nodding, he suddenly felt something was off! "Is it your fault or not? Do you admit it?" Ji Youcheng instinctively said, "I admit it," but then immediately shook his head. "No! Mother! You’re twisting things around! Xiaosuisui can fly—I... I didn’t know that! How is this my fault?" Ji Youcheng suddenly snapped to his senses and retorted to his mother. Hearing this, Madam Ji glared at him, her eyes conveying a clear message: You unfilial son! It is your fault, and you still won’t admit it! Ji Youcheng felt helpless and also thought his mother was being incredibly biased. "Mother! I know Suisui is your precious granddaughter, but I’m your biological son too! Can’t you be a little fair? "She disappeared because she flew away on her own! It’s not like I threw her out onto the Main Street. Do you really need to take your anger out on me?" Ji Youcheng felt I need to have a good talk with my mother about this. The blame really isn’t on me. However, as soon as he said this, a Golden Ruyi appeared in his mother’s hand, seemingly from nowhere. "I’ll beat you to death, you unfilial son..."
