Rong Xuan displayed extraordinary calmness and said, “They want to take Auntie Cheng and Auntie Gu away, so they will definitely use magic.”
Song Yun also felt that it made sense. “Young Master Rong is right. These two people won’t hide their energy.”
After the wizards heard this, they said, “But even if all of us join forces, we won’t be able to cover the entire capital.”
Rong Xuan looked at them coldly and said, “Then let’s split up. We’ll definitely be able to find them one by one.”
This method sounded simple, but it required the wizards to repeatedly release energy. This consumed a lot of wizards’s vitality, so they were a little hesitant.
Rong Xuan did not give them time to hesitate and said directly, “The Rong family gives you a high salary every month. It’s time for you to contribute.”
Since the young master had already said so, the wizards could only listen. Song Yun divided the area on the map of the capital and analyzed where to cover it first.
Gu Lin walked up to Rong Xuan and said, “Thank you for helping us find these two girls.”
Rong Xuan’s expression softened when he faced Gu Lin. He finally seemed like a child. “I’m very worried that Yunbao is in the hands of those two people. Only like this can we find them faster.”
Gu Lin knew Rong Xuan’s intentions towards Yunbao and said, “They will definitely be fine.”
The few of them were busy rescuing the children. Gu Peng stayed by Cheng Xi’s side while contacting people. Her nerves were very fragile now, and any movement could agitate her.
Cheng Xi gripped the rag doll in her hand tightly. The palm-sized doll was Lily’s favorite thing. Devon did not allow such a child’s item in the house, and she had pieced it together with scraps of cloth to give to her daughter.
She’d seen Devin abuse Lily herself, so she couldn’t accept the fact that her daughter had been taken. She couldn’t help but wonder what had happened to Lily. It had almost taken only one night for her to wither.
Gu Peng could only stay by her side to prevent anything irreversible from happening. Gu Teng did not shed another tear. She stayed in Yunbao’s room and meditated, as if she could sense her daughter this way.
At this moment, the people from Country Y’s embassy came to the Gu residence. They wanted to see Cheng Xi and ask about Devon.
Gu Peng refused, “Madam Cheng Xi’s current situation is not suitable for her to see you.”
Cheng Xi walked out of the room and said, “Ask whatever you want.”
She knew these people were going to investigate Devon. If Lily was taken away, she wouldn’t make it easy for Devon either.
Country Y wanted to investigate the sale of children by Devon. Although Cheng Xi had never seen these, she knew Devon’s private beliefs and how he tried to make her believe in it too.
However, Cheng Xi was extremely disgusted by this. Devon was afraid that her infidelity would have serious consequences, so he did not force her to believe in this religion.
“Ms. Cheng, do you know what the specific situation of this religion is?” the person from Country Y’s embassy asked.
Cheng Xi shook her head and said, “I don’t know the exact situation of this religion because Devon said that if I’m not pious enough, I’ll taint the faith, so he didn’t tell me about this religion. However, I know that the core of this religion is blood. Devon often said that only blood can cleanse the soul of sin.”
The people from Country YR S embassy recorded them one by one and prepared to go back for further investigation. They said, “Ms. Cheng, because you and Mr. Devon are not officially divorced, your authorization has legal effect. Can we search your house?
“Sure.” Cheng Xi nodded. “He always stays in the basement and doesn’t let me get close. You can focus on searching.”
Devon still didn’t know that his house was about to be searched. He was busy buying herbs everywhere to concoct potions. When he thought of Chen Yue ordering him around, he felt really aggrieved. If he didn’t have a favor to ask) he wouldn’t have fallen to such a state.
Not long after Devon left, Mao Feng also went out to buy what he needed to activate the array. Only Chen Yue and the two children were left in the hotel.
Chen Yue was not interested in Lily, but she kept staring at the sleeping Yunbao as if she wanted to bore two holes in her face.
However, Chen Yue did not go completely crazy. She controlled her desire to strangle her and went out. She was afraid that if she stayed here any longer, she would really attack.
As the door closed, Lily rushed to check on Yunbao. She found that Yunbao was sleeping soundly and could not be woken up. She could only try to open the door, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not open the door..
