“We have that person under control already. Don’t worry,” Yang Tao said. He had never seen Zhan Yihan take something so seriously.

“Thank you.” Zhan Yihan said a few words to Yang Tao before hanging up the phone. He returned the cellphone to the young man beside him. “Thank you!” The only thing he was worried about now was the forces behind Song Yiren. From the way the man in black refused to say anything, that force was definitely not simple.

The man shook his head with a smile and put away his cellphone. “You came to City Li this time to visit your relatives, right?”

“Yeah!” Zhan Yihan nodded. They had already made introductions previously. The other party was Su Yanyue.

“Zhan Yihan, do you know a girl around 18 years old or so, who was abandoned by her family?” Su Yanyue asked. He was here to look for his long-lost sister.

Back then, when something happened to the family, his mother had asked the nanny to bring his younger sister, who was still in her swaddling cloth, to escape first and return only after the family had stabilized the situation.

However, they did not expect that the nanny did not return after she left. All these years, the family had been searching for the nanny and his younger sister’s whereabouts. Other than finding out that the nanny had come to Li City, they had no other clues.

He had been searching for more than ten days in Li City and had also gone to the police station to gather information. There were too many young girls who met the criteria. When the nanny brought his sister away, the world was chaotic back then. There were many children who were abandoned and adopted, so there was no way to investigate them.

Now, the only clue he had to find his sister was the bracelet that his family had left for her. However, he was worried that the bracelet was no longer with his sister. Or rather, his sister was no longer in this world.

“Why are you asking this?” Zhan Yihan was curious.

“To tell you the truth, I’m here to look for my long-lost sister. I’ve been searching for her for almost half a month, but I haven’t found any clues.” Su Yanyue sighed.

If it wasn’t for the urgent matter that he had to settle, he would have continued searching. He wouldn’t give up until he found his sister. Even if she was no longer alive, he would only be satisfied after confirming the truth. However, he had already called his family and asked them to send someone over.

Zhan Yihan thought of Su Jinyue and Song Yiren and was about to speak, when a woman’s scream came from the front. “Help! My man is having a heart attack. Is there anyone who can save him?!”

The woman screamed as she frantically searched through her bag. She had clearly brought out the medicine for his heart, so why can’t she find it?

Su Yanyue frowned and took out a black pill from his pocket. He passed it to the woman in front of him. “Feed this to him.” His family was one of the Ten Major Hidden Sects from the Medicine Valley. They were proficient in alchemy and medicine. Although the medicine he gave her couldn’t cure heart disease, it could prevent him from relapsing again within three months.

The woman quickly took the pill and put it into the man’s mouth. She couldn’t care less now, as long as she could save her husband.

Not long after the pill entered his mouth, the expression of the man who was in pain a moment ago quickly eased up.

Seeing that her husband had recovered, the woman happily held his hand and looked at Su Yanyue with gratitude. “Thank you, comrade! If it weren’t for you, my man would have been in danger.”

Su Yanyue shook his head. He wasn’t a compassionate person. He had only saved her because he wanted to accumulate good karma for his sister. If his sister was still alive, he hoped that she would be fine and that they would meet sooner rather than later.

“Are you a doctor?” Zhan Yihan sized Su Yanyue up.

Su Yanyue smiled and shrugged. “I guess so. Zhan Yihan, where are you getting off?”

“The capital,” Zhan Yihan replied. Su Yanyue’s action of saving the person had left a deep impression on him.

“What a coincidence. I’m going to the capital city too.” Su Yanyue smiled. He hoped that his family could find his sister.

“Cuck Cuckaloo~” The village was silent before the cries of chickens broke the silence.

Su Jinyue opened her eyes, stretched, and sat up on the bed. She thought for a moment and used her X-ray vision to look at Song Yiren’s room next door. The room was empty, and the blanket on the bed was neatly folded.

“Why is Song Yiren up so early today?” Su Jinyue was puzzled. Could it be that Song Yiren had been waiting there because she hadn’t seen the man in black? Yihan had already told her about the man in black’s suicide.

Walking out of the house, Su Jinyue was about to go to the kitchen to make breakfast when she saw Xu Tiansheng sitting in the courtyard with a worried expression.

“Teacher!” Su Jinyue walked toward Xu Tiansheng. There was no doubt that her teacher was worried about Song Yiren.

Xu Tiansheng looked at Su Jinyue. “Yiren didn’t come back the whole night and I don’t know what happened.”

He had gone to bed early yesterday evening and suddenly thought of her in the middle of the night. He went to her room to take a look and realized that there was no one there.

Because it was too late, he didn’t call for Jinyue and had been sitting in the courtyard waiting for her to come back. However, after waiting for an entire night, she still hadn’t returned. He was worried to death and he hoped that nothing had happened to her.

Looking at Xu Tiansheng’s haggard face, Su Jinyue sighed inwardly. “Teacher, don’t worry. I’ll go and look for her later.”

No matter how horrible Song Yiren was, in her Teacher’s heart, she was no different from a daughter. It was just that between her and Song Yiren it was destined that only one of them could live. Even if she was willing to let Song Yiren off, Song Yiren wouldn’t let her go given her personality. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been reborn.

“Okay!” Xu Tiansheng nodded. He felt uneasy.

“In that case, I’ll go make breakfast first and then I’ll go after having breakfast.” Su Jinyue walked towards the kitchen. What was there to be anxious about when looking for Song Yiren? Her appetite would be better if she didn’t have to see her.

“Jinyue, you…” Xu Tiansheng was just about to ask Su Jinyue to look for Song Yiren first, when he heard someone calling him from outside.

“Is Dr. Xu here?”

“Coming.” Xu Tiansheng shook his head and stood up to leave.

Su Jinyue prepared breakfast and went to the clinic in front. She saw Xu Tiansheng putting a villager on an intravenous drip. “Teacher, leave this to me. Go and have breakfast.”

“No, I’ll go look for Yiren outside,” Xu Tiansheng said tiredly. He kept feeling uneasy knowing that Yiren had not come back.

Su Jinyue sighed. “I’ll go look for her.”

With that, Su Jinyue ran into the inner house and went to the kitchen to pour a cup of water and grabbed two steamed buns. She went over to Xu Tiansheng and handed them to him. “Teacher, have your breakfast first. Don’t worry, I’ll find her.”

Xu Tiansheng took the breakfast from her. “Go to the village committee and look for Third Uncle Li. Tell him to broadcast it and ask the villagers to look for her together.” It was unknown how long it would take if Jinyue went to find her alone.

“I’ll go now..” Su Jinyue nodded and walked out.
