Shen Qi didn’t return overnight. Early the next morning before Shen Zhonghua got up, the servant girls in the house of Fanghua Garden had already pleaded guilty outside Linyuan Pavilion and told Shen Zhonghua: “Miss Qi disappeared.”

“Only now are you all here to report?!” The sound could be described as the fury of thunder. If it weren’t for Leng Xing and Liu Yue to stop, the servant girls in and out of Fanghua Garden would have been flogged to death.

“Search......! Even if one turns the entire Chang’an City upside down, you must find Qiqi for this prince!” Shen Zhonghua brought down a death order under his rage along with the repeated screams of the servant girls outside the courtyard being flogged out of their responsibilities: “Can’t find Qiqi, return with all your heads and see!”

Compared with the gloom in Prince Xuan’s palace, Shen Qi’s side seemed much calmer.

Shen Qi didn’t remember much about what happened when she was a child. She told Su Shengfeng about everything she could think of. Su Shengfeng had been listening quietly with a complex look. Until Shen Qi finished telling, he told her: “I’ll send someone to investigate what you said. Before the matter is clear, please ask the young lady to stay in this Bie Garden for the time being.”

This wasn’t meant to be a release.

For some reason, Shen Qi was clearly “imprisoned”, but her heart was calm.

“Is it because one doesn’t have to return to the prince’s palace?” Shen Qi was startled by her perverse idea. She shook her head and told herself. She was just waiting for a result calmly. If it wasn’t, she would leave right away.

Hearing that she might be the miss of the general, Shen Qi was a little surprised at first but then calmed down. It wasn’t like she didn’t want to find her parents. Shen Qi was merely afraid that she was dreaming and all were just thoughts. She was afraid of disappointment so she didn’t dare to have hope. Whether looking for her family or hoping for Shen Zhonghua to look back at her with just a glance and treat her with a moment of tenderness. Shen Qi of the previous life was disappointed to despair one after another.

So she didn’t dare to think, therefore she forced herself to be calm.

When the door was closed, Su Yanling came over to greet him anxiously. His heart was frenetic but his fourth brother also told him not to leak the wind and nobody could.

“How is it, Fourth Brother? What did she say?” Su Yanling asked in a hurry.

Su Shengfeng made a silent gesture and walked to the garden with Su Yanling where it was deserted. Only then did he look at Su Yanling face to face and open his mouth to say: “She doesn’t remember much. I think she was too young when she was separated from her family.”

Su Yanling’s mood was very complex but also seemed normal. He hoped Shen Qi was his younger sister but also hoped she wasn’t. If Shen Qi was really his younger sister then his two younger sisters were entangled with Shen Zhonghua. He......

Su Yanling hurriedly asked Su Shengfeng: “Was she adopted? Asked her adoptive father and mother if they knew what clothes and jewelry Little Seven wore when she was lost at that time?”

Su Yanling’s thoughts, Su Shengfeng also thought about it. He showed his dilemma and told him: “She isn’t only the maid of Prince Xuan’s palace but also the dark guard of Shen Zhonghua.”

As soon as this remark came out, Su Yanling understood immediately. Dark guards were all sent to the training camp to secretly train. Once they entered the training camp from the days they were children, everything that could prove their identity was destroyed. Even the names were given by the later master. In the training camp, they only had a number as code names.

“Her name is Shen Qi...... is it a coincidence?” Su Yanling asked with a glimmer of hope.

“No.” Su Shengfeng said: “When Shen Zhonghua gave her a name, she said she vaguely remembered that the people in the house called her Little Seven so Shen Zhonghua gave her the character Qi.”

“Little Seven...... Little Seven?” Su Yanling pulled his fourth brother’s sleeve: “She looks exactly the same as Mother and is also called Little Seven. There won’t be such a coincidence in the world, right?”

“There are two more things.” Su Shengfeng added: “She vaguely remembered that there were two snowy trees at the doorway of the house and a little pig-like flower cloth doll.”

(Translator: below is a pic of that kind of tree (plant).)



“Snowy trees......” Su Yanling wondered for a moment but murmured: “Little pig-like flower cloth doll...... Dudu…... It’s Dudu! Whether sleeping, eating, or going to the street to play, Little Seven always held her Dudu and refused to let go!”

Su Yanling suddenly seemed to be even more determined than Su Shengfeng that Shen Qi was precisely his younger sister Little Seven. His excitement was to the extreme and his voice became trembling: “When Little Seven was lost, Dudu also disappeared! Little Seven must be holding Dudu!

“That Dudu! Only to find Dudu can it confirm her identity! I’ll know if she is my younger sister or not in the end!” All of a sudden, the light in Su Yanling’s eyes went out. He calmed down and looked mournful: “No, she was sent to the training camp. There won’t be any trace of her past......”

Su Shengfeng shook his head but his expression was firm: “As long as there’s a real existence, one will definitely find traces.”

Su Yanling asked: “That house......”

“Don’t say anything yet. Let’s wait for confirmation.” Su Shengfeng and Shen Qi’s thoughts were similar: “Otherwise, I’m worried that our parents hope too much, but in the end......”

It was a disappointment.
