    Every year, countless girls would be abducted by kidnappers during the Jade Rabbit Festival in the capital. If a boy was abducted, he would most likely end up being sold to a sonless family in remote ces. If a girl was abducted, it would be terrible. Those who were not beautiful would be sold to a rich family as low-grade maids. If they were good-looking, they would be sold to a troupe, a brothel, or even be a ything of the rich.


    Among these girls, there was nock of people from rich families. However, whether from a rich family or poor, the girls would be treated equally cruelly.


    “Miss Shen was kidnapped?” In the room, Ji Yushu immediately stood up and started pacing, looking a little worried. “Miss Shen is not bad-looking. I’m afraid she will definitely be sold by the kidnapper. Although I also like Miss Shaoyao, I don’t want Miss Shen to be sold to a brothel. Third Brother Xie, should we save her?”


    Gao Yang couldn’t help but say, “Are you alright? With Shen Miao’s ability, how can she be kidnapped by someone? Moreover, kidnappers will only target girls who are alone or lost. Shen Qiu and Shen Xin are not far from Shen Miao. Those kidnappers are not fools. Why would they choose such a risky target? It’s not like Shen Miao is drop-dead gorgeous. It’s not worth taking the risk at all.”


    Gao Yang was right. Kidnappers would only make moves when they were certain that the sess rate was high. Even if they wanted to kidnap a daughter of a rich family, they would only do so when the girl was alone. However, ording to the information, Shen Miao was at the edge of Wanli Lake at that time where there was a crowd. If they were spotted kidnapping Shen Miao, they wouldn’t be able to escape under the nose of so many people. It made sense if they took the risk to kidnap a once-in-a-hundred-years kind of beauty, but Shen Miao was by no means one of that kind.


    Most importantly, at that time, Shen Qiu and Shen Xin were not far away. Who in the capital didn’t know the almighty general? Only the most stupid of kidnappers would hvae designs on Shen Miao.


    Ji Yushu was enlightened. “In that case, it wasn’t done by kidnappers? Then who could it be? They’re clearly targeting Miss Shen. Could it be the remaining members of Prince Yu’s mansion?” As he spoke, he shook his head. “It makes no sense. Even Prince Yu doesn’t know that Shen Miao is involved in the massacre. Could it be someone from the Shen family? I heard that the Shen family doesn’t get along well. Could it be someone from the other branches?”


    Xie Jingxing, who had been sitting at the side in silence, stood up. “It’s them.”


    “Them?” Gao Yang immediately became nervous and looked at Xie Jingxing. “They’ve already discovered it?”


    “I don’t think so.” Xie Jingxing shook his head. “Previously, I waited for them to make a move, but nothing happened. Now I understand. They might have found out about the secret room and through one way or another known that Shen Miao was present that day. Our identities have not been exposed yet. They want to get information from Shen Miao.”


    Ji Yushu was stunned for a moment before feeling a headacheing on. “Oh no, given how brutal those people are, Miss Shen will definitely not have a good time in their hands.”


    “Gather the people of the ck Feather Army to look for them. Search around Wanli Lake. I think they haven’t gone too far yet,” Xie Jingxing said in a low voice. The casual expression on his face had already disappeared, reced by a look of seriousness.
