Liu Sanniang nodded. “Alright.”
Wei Shilai was right. If the Li Yazhi in the residence was fake, the real Li Yazhi had to be found as soon as possible.
She could use her psychic ability to sense where Li Yazhi might be at.
Wei Shilai sighed. “Sorry to trouble you again.”
Liu Sanniang shook her head. This was something she had done willingly. If she was unwilling, no one could have forced her. She wanted to do what she thought was right.
In her previous life, after discovering Liu Shun’s true colors, she had begged Madam Wei to turn down the marriage proposal.
If she were to choose again, she’d do the same, because she would always follow her heart.
Previously, Liu Sanniang had rejected Officer Zhou when he came to ask her for help because she did not want to have anything to do with this field. But now she thought that since she was gifted with this power, she might as well make the best use of it to help people.
After this case, she would go to Officer Zhou and help him find his daughter.
Thinking of Officer Zhou, Liu Sanniang recalled that she had seen some black aura around him at the government office. Liu Sanniang looked at Wei Shilai and Lin Zheng. There was no black aura around them.
Wei Shilai struck her as a righteous person.
When Liu Sanniang returned to the courtyard, she saw Chu Yan.
Chu Yan was wearing a black guard uniform and holding a sword in his hand. He leaned against the courtyard door and looked at Liu Sanniang without blinking.
Liu Sanniang did not move forward. She felt that her legs weighed a thousand pound.
“Ahhh, why is this lunatic staring at me like that?”
“And… he actually smiled. What is he smiling at?” She screamed internally.
She lowered her head and suddenly wanted to run into the courtyard.
She was really afraid that Chu Yan would stop her or tease her.
Chu Yan did not do anything, but when Liu Sanniang ran past him, she heard his chuckle.
Liu Sanniang quickly went back into the house, feeling relieved.
After being frightened by Chu Yan, Liu Sanniang was no longer sleepy. Outside, it was almost approaching dawn.
The maidservants had already woken up early to work.
Liu Sanniang also got up. She heard Li Yazhi’s tired voice. “Carry Miss away and take good care of her.”
Nanny looked relieved. “Yes.”
She carried the child back to the nanny’s house. Liu Sanniang followed.
After entering the house, Nanny realized that Liu Sanniang was walking behind her. She asked vigilantly. “Miss Liu, why are you following me?”
Liu Sanniang looked at Zhou Yanshu. Her nose was red and her long eyelashes were still wet from crying.
Liu Sanniang asked. “Did Little Miss cry all night last night?”
Nanny sighed. “Yes. Whenever Madam touched her, she would burst out crying. I don’t know what happened.”
Liu Sanniang asked her again. “Does it usually happen?”
Nanny shook her head. “No, Miss likes Madam a lot. Maybe it’s because Madam has never slept with Miss.”
“Miss Liu, if there’s nothing else, please leave. I’ve been tortured enough during the entire night. I need to take a rest.”
Nanny yawned. She was very sleepy. The child was crying, so Li Yazhi had no choice but to let the nanny feed her. But even though she was full, she continued sobbing. When she finally stopped crying, Nanny placed the child beside Li Yazhi. But immediately, the child started howling again.
After a night of torture, Nanny just wanted to have a good rest.
Liu Sanniang nodded and turned to leave.
If that was the case, her suspicions were quite possibly correct.
Li Yazhi had also been tortured for the entire night, so she had to catch up on her sleep as well.
Other than the two third-class maidservants cleaning the courtyard, there were only second-class maidservants in the house.
Granny Li and the two maidservants took this opportunity to rest.
Liu Sanniang went to the kitchen to make tea and went into Li Yazhi’s house, holding a tray of tea.
Two second-class maids were dozing on the couch.
In the house, Li Yazhi was already asleep.
Liu Sanniang did not approach her. She sat down at the table and tried to release her power to read Li Yazhi from a distance. Her ability was stronger than before, but she was still a little too far away from the target.
It didn’t work after trying from whereshe was.
Liu Sanniang could only enter the inner room quietly.
On the rack were the clothes that Li Yazhi had taken off. Li Yazhi was sleeping soundly on the bed, under the blanket.
Liu Sanniang walked over and gently opened her hand, releasing her power again. Perhaps it was because Li Yazhi was asleep, Liu Sanniang could easily sense her memories.
The moment she sensed Li Yazhi’s memories, Liu Sanniang knew that the person lying on the bed was not the real Li Yazhi.
The real Li Yazhi was born in the capital. Her father was the Minister of State, Lord Li. She had been living a luxurious life since she was young and had an extremely good upbringing. She had studied the four arts and was pretty much a princess.
The memories that Liu Sanniang sensed were filled with extremely cruel training.
Time was limited, so Liu Sanniang did not pay attention to these memories. Instead, she focused on finding out if the real Li Yazhi was still alive.
Soon, Liu Sanniang retracted her hand. Li Yazhi didn’t wake up. She seemed to be dreaming and muttered in a daze. “Father… save… me.”
Liu Sanniang had already pushed the door open and walked out, so she did not hear what the woman muttered.
Liu Sanniang’s heart was beating faster. The sky was already bright. When she went out, she was worried that she would bump into Chu Yan, but he had already changed shifts.
Liu Sanniang heaved a sigh of relief.
She went straight to see Wei Shilai.
When Wei Shilai saw Liu Sanniang, he immediately stood up and asked. “Miss Liu, how is it?”
Lin Zheng quietly closed the door.
She said, “She’s fake. The person in the house is not the real First Madam Zhou.”
Wei Shilai was already mentally prepared, so when he heard Liu Sanniang say this, he did not react strongly. Instead, he asked calmly. “Where is the real Madam Zhou?”
Liu Sanniang said, “She’s still outside the city. She was knocked out when she went to the toilet after burning incense. The real First Madam Zhou was left in an abandoned house.”
After Wei Shilai heard that, he immediately said excitedly, “That’s great. Things are much easier when we know where we need to go.”
Liu Sanniang recalled the memories she saw and frowned. “Sir, you have to be careful. There might be more than one psychic like her who can change their appearance at will.”
Liu Sanniang was now certain that the Li Yazhi at the Zhou Mansion was actually Hong Ying.
Hong Ying worked for a powerful organization with a lot of psychics like her. They were well trained and seemed to possess some abilities. It would definitely be very difficult to deal with them.
