She heard a bout of laughter coming from the room, mingled with a familiar voice. Her heart lightened, and she hurriedly lifted the curtain and went in.

“Second Sister…”

Raising her head, Liu Zhi’er was embracing Da Mao and laughing wholeheartedly in the chair, with tear stains still on her face.

The sight of her weather-beaten face, chapped lips, and wind-chapped cheeks made Liu Sisi’s heart ache.

Upon seeing Liu Sisi come in, Liu Zhi’er quickly let go of Da Mao and stood up from the chair.

“Sisi, I’m back…”

Liu Sisi hastily asked: “Second Sister, why did only you come back? Where is San Mao? Where is he?”

At the mention of Sisi’s question, the smile on Liu Zhi’er’s face vanished in an instant, and her eyes turned red.

“San Mao, he…”

Unable to hold back, she burst into tears.

“Don’t worry, Second Sister. Please don’t cry. What happened?” Liu Sisi inquired anxiously.

After a good cry, Liu Zhi’er recounted the process of searching for San Mao.

“Big Brother Zuo and I hurried south with the carriage. We kept traveling ahead, only stopping when we reached Tengzhou City. Then I stayed at an inn for three days before he took me to a place to recognize people… For two days, I saw countless children, but there was no sign of Er Mao and San Mao. After that, he took me northwards, and we rushed along the way…”

Liu Zhi’er stammered her story, telling how Zuo Xingyu took her to different places, and how many children they saw.

“So in the end, it turned out that none of the children were Er Mao and San Mao? And then? You guys just came back after looking around? You didn’t go looking again? Didn’t he say the news was reliable?” Liu Sisi pursed her lips.

She knew it; how could Zuo Xingyu have such a good heart to sincerely help Liu Zhi’er find people?

Judging from the current situation, he just took Liu Zhi’er out for a spin before returning. Liu Zhi’er had gone out with great hope but came back dejected. It was a fruitless endeavor, without any results!

Liu Zhi’er looked up at Liu Sisi but didn’t say anything; she just lowered her head again and hugged Da Mao like a little daughter-in-law, which made Liu Sisi angrier.

“How did you come back? Where is Zuo Xingyu?”

“Big Brother Zuo took me back to Upper Village, only to find that you had moved. He’s inside with Auntie…”

The more Liu Zhi’er spoke, the worse Liu Sisi’s expression became, making Liu Zhi’er increasingly fearful. She kept rubbing the corner of her clothes, her head almost drooping to her chest.

Anger was indeed swelling in Liu Sisi’s heart. She raised her eyebrows in surprise, “You’re actually calling him Big Brother Zuo! You actually…”

Just as she was about to say something else, her words were cut off by the figure that suddenly lifted the curtain and stepped out.

Zuo Xingyu appeared road-weary, his clothes unchanged as he had come straight here without going home. He supported Mother Zuo as they walked out slowly.

The two gazes met in midair!

A pair of deep, dark eyes filled with piercing coldness! Thin, tightly pressed lips, like a proud and solitary eagle standing silently at the foot of a mountain in the darkness of night, carrying a strong air of resilience and defiance that seems to overlook the world!

Her almond-shaped eyes widened, her gaze full of austere and fierce pride, and her delicate lips slightly curled up, brimming with mockery.

Even under the force of his strong gaze, she straightened her back and stared back at him coldly.

He raised his eyebrows in surprise, supporting Mother Zuo as he took two steps forward, dodging Liu Sisi’s line of sight in the process.

Neither of them said a word, but the scene made Liu Zhi’er shiver!

Anyone with eyes could see the sparks flying between the two, a collision of intense emotions!

“Auntie, why have you come out?”

Liu Sisi’s eyes shifted slightly, meeting Mother Zuo’s searching hands, and hurriedly went over to greet her.

Mother Zuo took advantage of the opportunity to grab Liu Sisi’s hands, looking reluctant to let go.

“Sisi, my Yu’er has returned home! I have to go back to cook for him and can’t stay here any longer. These days, staying here has been quite troublesome for you. Not only did you send medicine and doctors for my wife, but you also took good care of her meals and daily life. You even asked Granny Hu to look after her. You really went to a lot of trouble.”

“Auntie, please stay here! You can chat with Sisi and have her accompany you. You will feel lonely and cold when you get back to your empty room, isn’t that bad?”

Liu Sisi raised her voice as she spoke, deliberately letting Zuo Xingyu hear her words!

He took Second Sister out, only to return after a brief stroll, allowing Second Sister to experience false joy and heartache. Retaliating against him in this way was also an outlet to vent her resentment!

These words made Mother Zuo’s smile vanish! She couldn’t help but sigh and said with sorrow.

“Ah! It’s better not to mention it, but when you bring it up, it fills my stomach with anger! Back then, my husband arranged the marriage between Yu’er and the daughter of the Liu Family’s Mansion. But in the end, it ruined Yu’er’s reputation, making it difficult for him to find a suitable daughter-in-law.”

Mother Zuo’s words made Liu Sisi raise her eyebrows, her mocking and disdainful gaze flashing!

Mother Zuo still thought that they were the ones who had withdrawn from the marriage proposal. She couldn’t imagine their reaction when they learn the truth and how interesting their expressions would be!

Zuo Xingyu coughed softly, and quickly stopped Mother Zuo from saying more: “Mother, why are you discussing this in front of others?”

After saying that, he was ready to support Mother Zuo and leave.

“You child, how can you speak like that? Your mother has been relying on Sisi’s help during these days.”

Zuo Xingyu did not dare to retort Mother Zuo’s reprimand and just lowered his head and listened. His gloomy eyes quickly glanced over Liu Sisi.

“Yu’er, you don’t know, if it weren’t for Sisi saving your mother, I might not be in this world anymore. You must thank Sisi properly and never repay her kindness with resentment!”

Although Mother Zuo’s eyes were clouded, her determination remained steadfast.

It seemed that if he did not express his gratitude, she wouldn’t be willing to leave!

Zuo Xingyu’s face twitched, and after taking a deep breath, he reluctantly lowered his head, released Mother Zuo’s hand, and respectfully bowed three times to Liu Sisi.

“Xingyu is grateful for Mrs. Di’s care of my mother during these days. In a few days, I from the Zuo Family will certainly visit your manor again and deliver the money for my mother’s medicine to repay Mrs. Di’s life-saving grace!”
