Compared to losing Lu Hai Kong, what I had planned should have been scarier. However, after losing Lu Hai Kong, I felt an inexplicable deep fear. With fear came imagination. If Lu Hai Kong had been murdered, then it was alright. But what if he was sold to do hard work, forced to become a servant, or sold to a brothel? Those images made my head hurt.

If that was the case, even if Chu Kong went to hell, even if he would face the danger of ceasing to exist, he would let me disappear in one of the three realms (human, hell, heaven). I couldn’t go too overboard.

While walking, I shouted his name. I had never been so excited to see him appear unharmed before me. I searched the whole day without results.

When the sun disappeared, the gates on the north, south, west and east of the capital were closed. If someone had kidnapped Lu Hai Kong, he would be outside the capital by now.

With only my power, I couldn’t find Lu Hai Kong. Lu Hai Kong was the general’s son. The general, in order to search for his son, could use some of his power. With that thought, I ran back home.

When the red lights at the general’s mansion were lit, the two guards stood more rigid. I was about to rush past them, when I saw father Song with an apologetic face, coming out together with the general.

Father Song said: “It’s my fault for not teaching her well and allowing her to have the guts to cause today’s mess. Brother Lu, when I find that brat, I’ll bring her here to apologize.”

My heart made a thump sound. Did something really happen to Lu Hai Kong?

I didn’t care about how father Song will punish me and ran towards them.

“Father, general, Lu Hai Kong what… what happened to him?”

The general didn’t even get to speak; I was interrupted by my angry father. “What happened?! You still have the gall to ask what happened?! I haven’t taught you well and spoiled you too much. You don’t even know the limits of your actions anymore. Today, I’ll let you catch up on some lessons!”

Father Song dragged me back home. Even before entering, he yelled, “Lao Zhao, bring me the stick!”

Father Song had never used the stick against me. Although I was afraid of being beaten, but I still asked, “Has someone really sold Lu Hai Kong? How come he was sold in such a short period of time? How was he sold? How much did he cost?”

Father Song quivered in anger. “I’d like to sell you too.”

“Brother Song,” the general interjected. “Yun Xiang is still young. It’s normal that she doesn’t understand things. My brat was also not in a big trouble. Just let this matter slide.”

I did not let father Song answer. “Lu Hai Kong wasn’t in a big trouble? Then what small trouble did he get into?”

General Lu helplessly sighed. “He…he was caught by bad guys. Luckily, our guards arrived in time. He lost half a tooth and was a bit scared. But Yun Xiang, you really shouldn’t have taken Hai Kong outside the general’s mansion alone.”

Hearing that Lu Hai Kong was fine, I felt relieved. I didn’t bother with what the general said after that and turned to father Song. “Father, see, nothing happened. His virginity is still there; his life is still there.”

My pale-faced father Song was turned to the general when the general was persuading my father. Upon hearing my words, the general stopped and said instead, “Ten years is not very young anymore. There’s not many years left before she’ll get her hairpin ceremony. Brother Song, strengthening your way of disciplining is understandable. I’ll go back now.”
