Chapter 1241: Chapter 1241: A Moment’s Misjudgment
If that’s really the case, he might have already gained the spiritual power from Jiang Xue and gone into seclusion for cultivation.
What a pity it was just a wrong thought!
Master Niu sighed as he left the vicinity of Jiang Xue’s neighborhood.
Nangong Chen watched Nangong Jun lead his men out, but Jiang Xue was nowhere to be found, and his heart finally eased.
It seems that Jiang Xue is not at home, so they didn’t catch her. Luckily, she’s not there; otherwise, it would have been troublesome.
Although he could help Jiang Xue, he didn’t know what kind of background the old man they hired had. If he’s difficult to deal with, that would be even more troublesome.
Fortunately, thanked goodness Jiang Xue wasn’t home. Nangong Chen was relieved but didn’t leave immediately. He didn’t know that Jiang Xue had already taken the train and left Xu City; he thought she had just gone out.
So he waited in the dark for Jiang Xue to return. As time slowly passed, he waited and waited but never saw Jiang Xue appear.
Seeing the sky completely darken and yet Jiang Xue still not returned, Nangong Chen had to leave. But before leaving, he thought about visiting Jiang Xue again the next day.
The next day, Nangong Chen arrived early and went to Jiang Xue’s house, knocking on the door. However, after knocking for a long time, no one came to open the door. Not only did no one open Jiang Xue’s door, but neither did the doors of the two neighboring houses.
It was only then that Nangong Chen realized the issue: not only was Jiang Xue not home, but her parents weren’t either.
Where could she have gone?
Could it be that she went back to the countryside? Nangong Chen thought while leaving the neighborhood. Once he was out, he immediately took out his phone, called his subordinates, and asked them to check if Jiang Xue had returned to her hometown.
Just like him, Nangong Jun also suspected Jiang Xue had gone back to her hometown. After his men watched for a day and a night without seeing any trace of Jiang Xue, Nangong Jun sent people to her hometown.
Meanwhile, Jiang Xue, whom they were both searching for, had already arrived in South City and returned to the villa.
When Bai Yuhua and Mu Siwu saw Jiang Xue’s living place was a large luxury villa, they were quite shocked. Mu Siwu was fine; after all, he was raised in a wealthy family and had lived in good places before. But Bai Yuhua was different; the best place she’d lived in was the house Jiang Xue bought for them in Xu City.
And now, Jiang Xue told them this large luxury villa that only wealthy people could afford was her family’s, leaving them momentarily speechless.
"Mother-in-law, come on in!" Mrs. Jiang called out to Bai Yuhua, who was standing outside the villa in a daze. Only then did Bai Yuhua return to her senses and follow them into the villa.
Once inside, Jiang Xue smiled and asked Bai Yuhua and Mu Siwu, "Mom and Dad, I have rooms downstairs and upstairs. Do you plan to stay downstairs or upstairs?"
As soon as these words were spoken, before Bai Yuhua could reply, Mu Siwu said directly, "We’re old bones, and can’t climb stairs; we’ll stay downstairs."
"Alright, I’ll have someone tidy up the room for you, you rest here for a while," Jiang Xue said, and called for the housemaids to prepare the room next to Father Jiang and Mrs. Jiang’s.
This room was reserved early on, equipped with everything identical to Father Jiang and Mrs. Jiang’s. And speaking of tidying, it didn’t really need much, just changing bed sheets and pillows.
