And for the search, Xia Chuyi must act separately from his brother.

Before separating, Ou Jun repeatedly instructed, "Chuyi, you must not leave Jingqi’s sight!"

Due to Xia Chuyi’s arrival, Ou Jun brought Xiao Jingqi along as well, making Xiao Jingqi Xia Chuyi’s bodyguard.

"Chuyi, remember, you must stay with Jingqi the entire time, and if you find anyone, don’t do anything yet, inform me first and I’ll handle it!" Ou Jun continued.

Hearing this, Xia Chuyi nodded obediently and said, "Yes, big brother, rest assured, I will absolutely not leave Jingqi’s sight and definitely won’t act alone and recklessly."

Seeing Xia Chuyi respond this way, Ou Jun reluctantly nodded and then told Xiao Jingqi, "Jingqi, remember, you absolutely must not let Chuyi run around."

"If you find any suspicious people, quickly notify me." Ou Jun sternly instructed Xiao Jingqi.

"Hmm, don’t worry, I will definitely protect Chuyi well." Hearing Ou Jun’s words, Xiao Jingqi immediately responded seriously.

However, upon hearing Xiao Jingqi’s response, Ou Jun’s expression turned even more serious, "Not only do you have to protect her, but also protect yourself, both of you need to stay safe!"

"Hmm." Hearing this, Xiao Jingqi’s eyes immediately brightened, and she said loudly, "Yes, we will definitely stay safe!"

Seeing this, Ou Jun finally nodded in satisfaction.

After another round of instructions, they separated to act.

Then, Xiao Jingqi and Xia Chuyi, accompanied by two other bodyguards, headed in a direction different from Ou Jun’s, and began their search.

Due to Ou Jun’s instructions, Xiao Jingqi held onto Xia Chuyi the whole time, saying, "Chuyi, you must not run around!"

"You have to stay with me, don’t get separated from me!" Xiao Jingqi chattered incessantly, "You must remember, you must remember!"

Xia Chuyi: ...

Has Xiao Jingqi completely forgotten she is Xia Chuyi’s junior disciple?

"Jingqi, you’re already acting like my sister-in-law before becoming one?" Xia Chuyi remarked with a deliberate shake of his head to Xiao Jingqi.

To Xia Chuyi’s words, Xiao Jingqi immediately replied, "Oh, Chuyi, what are you talking about... Even if not, just because of this relationship, I’m a soldier, I should protect you!"

At first, Xiao Jingqi was a bit shy with these words, but by the second half, she was already patting her chest, earnestly and seriously promising Xia Chuyi.

Seeing this, Xia Chuyi said, "Alright, future sister-in-law, Lady Soldier, we’ll do as you say..."

On the chosen route, after asking around for a while, they quickly gained some useful information.

As it turns out, there are several areas nearby where the population is more diverse.

To put it bluntly, if any suspicious or special persons are residing here, it’s less likely to attract attention.

Of course, in Capital City, being the nation’s capital, people gather from all directions, such places aren’t uncommon.

And such places are most likely where Xia Lianlian and others are hiding.

Therefore, Xia Chuyi and the others decided to first investigate this place.

However, when they reached this complicated personnel area, they encountered a fork in the road.

Upon seeing the fork, Xiao Jingqi immediately hesitated and said, "Given the current situation..."
