Chapter 668: Missing

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Liu Qirui and Liu Sixing specially brought the opera troupe here to perform and visit Yu Niaoniao because they knew that she was in Eastern Tang.

Yu Niaoniao was naturally very happy with their intentions.

They went to a nearby restaurant and sat down, preparing to catch up as they ate.

Yu Niaoniao suddenly realized that her purse was gone.

She guessed that it had been accidentally squeezed out while she watching the show.

She wanted to go back and look for it, but Xiao Juan stopped her.

“Stay here. I’ll help you find it.”

Yu Niaoniao considered that she was the most familiar with Liu Qirui and Liu Sixing. If she left, the others would probably not be able to talk to the Liu father and daughter.

It was better for her to stay where she was, so she nodded. “Okay.”

Xiao Juan handed their daughter to Niaoniao and stood up to leave.

Yu Niaoniao said to him, “If you really can’t find it, forget it. Come back early.” Xiao Juan nodded in understanding.

He left the restaurant alone and went to look for Yu Niaoniao’s lost purse.

Liu Sixing smiled and teased, “The Duke is so considerate to Madam. It wasn’t in vain for Madam to accompany him through life and death.”

Yu Niaoniao was not stingy with her praise for Xiao Juan.

“Although he doesn’t like to talk, he’s really good at taking care of people. He’s good at everything at home and abroad.”

Liu Sixing’s smile widened. “We’re relieved to see that you’re doing well.”

Yu Niaoniao said, “How have you been all these years? Is the opera troupe doing well?”

Liu Sixing told her about the opera troupe’s experience in the past two years. Ever since they left the Imperial Capital, they had been wandering around and performing everywhere. They would change places after two or three days.

They were good singers, to begin with. In addition, Duke Lang in Liaodong, and the Double Beauties that Yu Niaoniao had left for them helped to grow their reputation. There were also some local squires who invited them to perform at a high price. freewebn(o)vel.com

Liu Sixing said, “Although we earned a lot of money from the tour, we still want to find a place to settle down. After thinking about it, we’ve decided to come to Eastern Tang to join you. I wonder if Eastern Tang can accept our opera troupe?

At this point, she and Liu Qirui looked at Yu Niaoniao with anticipation.

Before Yu Niaoniao could speak, Tang Guixi replied impatiently.

“Of course, you can! You guys stay here. In the future, I’ll listen to you perform

every day. What else can you do?”

Liu Sixing smiled. “We’re naturally best at Duke Lang in Liaodong, and the Double Beauties. These two plays were written by Madam Duchess. The plots are very exciting. Those who have watched them say that they are good.” Tang Guixi and Shen Xu turned to look at Yu Niaoniao in unison. “Do you have such an ability?”

Yu Niaoniao raised her chin. “Of course. I’m very powerful.”

Liu Sixing smiled and echoed, “That’s right. Not only is Madam’s playbook written well, but she also draws well. The books she drew previously were in short supply in the Imperial Capital. Every day, there are people queuing up to buy the books.”

As the collector of stories, how could Tang Guixi sit still when she heard this?

She rubbed her hands together, her eyes shining.

“What kind of books are these? I want to see them too!”

Shen Xu raised his hand in agreement. “Me too. I want to see them too!”

Liu Sixing said, “Coincidentally, I brought two books here. They’re especially for collection. I’ll lend them to you to take a look.”

With that, she took out two books from the bag she carried.

Tang Guixi and Shen Xu could not wait to take the books.

As soon as they opened one of the books, they were attracted by the lifelike images.

Wow! It was all drawings. It was completely different from the scripts they had read before!

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the private room. A clerk walked in and asked carefully.

“May I ask which one is the Duchess?”

Yu Niaoniao turned to look at him. “It’s me. What is it?”

The clerk did not expect there to really be a Duchess. His legs went weak from fear and he knelt down.

“I didn’t know that Madam Duchess is here. Please forgive me, Madam.”

Yu Niaoniao gestured for him to stand up. “We just want a quiet meal. Don’t make a fuss.”

The clerk nodded hurriedly. “I understand.”

Yu Niaoniao asked, “Why are you looking for me?”

The clerk said, “It’s like this. Someone outside said that he saw your purse and wanted to invite you to see if it was yours.”

Yu Niaoniao glanced at Tang Guixi and Shen Xu, who were still engrossed in the scripts. She knew that it was impossible for the two of them to get up for a while, so she said to Liu Sixing and Liu Qirui. “I’m going out to take a look. Help me take care of Fu Bao. I’ll be back soon.” The Liu father and daughter nodded in agreement.

Yu Niaoniao stroked her daughter’s head. “I’ll be back soon. Be good.”

Xiao Yining waved her arms, and the rattle drum made a Ding-Dong sound.

The sound alarmed Tang Guixi and Shen Xu, who were still reading. Tang Guixi took the time to look up at Yu Niaoniao. “Are you going out?”

Yu Niaoniao said, “Someone picked up my purse. I’ll go out and take a look.”

Tang Guixi asked, “Do you want me to go with you?”

Yu Niaoniao shook her head to indicate that there was no need.

It was just a few steps. She would be back soon.

Tang Guixi was still concerned about the plot in the book, so she did not insist.

She only said, “Then come back quickly.”

Yu Niaoniao stood up and walked out of the private room alone.

She followed the clerk all the way to the backyard of the restaurant.

The backyard was empty. No one was in sight.

The clerk scratched his head. looking nuzzled.

“Where is he? I clearly asked him to wait here just now.”

Yu Niaoniao was about to ask him if he had made a mistake when she suddenly felt a pain on the back of her neck. Then, her vision darkened and she fainted.

In the private room, Xiao Yining, who had been quietly waiting, suddenly opened her mouth and cried.

Her cry immediately shocked everyone in the private room. 𝒻𝓇𝘦𝘦𝘸𝘦𝒷𝓃𝑜𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Liu Sixing hurriedly coaxed, “Don’t cry, don’t cry, Miss Fubao. Don’t cry.” Liu Qirui asked, “Could she be hungry?

Tang Guixi immediately threw the script aside. She scooped a bowl of chicken soup and wanted to feed it to Xiao Yining.

But Xiao Yining refused to drink. She cried louder and louder.

This time, even Tang Guixi panicked.

Was this child feeling unwell?

She picked Xiao Yining up and pressed her forehead against his.

Her temperature was normal. There were no signs of fever.

Tang Guixi hugged her and shook her gently as she asked, “Fubao, what’s wrong?”

Shen Xu asked, “Could she be missing her mother?”

Tang Guixi felt that it was possible.

“I’ll take her to Niaoniao now.”

She carried Xiao Yining and searched the entire restaurant, but she could not find Yu Niaoniao. In the end, she found the restaurant clerk who had fainted in the backyard.

According to the clerk, he took Yu Niaoniao to the backyard. In the end, not only did he not see the person with the purse, but he was also knocked out from behind.

As for Yu Niaoniao, she was nowhere to be found.

Tang Guixi immediately ordered, “Seal the city gate immediately and don’t let anyone enter or leave. Send someone to inform Xiao Juan that Niaoniao is gone and tell him to come back quickly..”
