Feng Tianlan didnt reply, but his expression said it all.

Gu Qingluan played the emotional card with him, saying, Just when Little Yuanxi and 1 have reunited, can you bear to separate him from his birth mother?

However, Feng Tianlan remained indifferent, saying, I dont object to him living with his birth mother, but unfortunately, shes a heartless person and is unwilling.

A lump formed in Gu Qingluans throat.

When did she become unwilling?

She was clearly unwilling to marry him, can he please stay on topic?

Man, leave! Let Little Yuanxi stay! She raised both her hands and feet in agreement.

Feng Tianlan strode toward Shallow Clouds Residence, his demeanor calm and composed, as if he were well-acquainted with this place.

If one didnt know any better, one might mistake it for his territory.

Gu Qingluan didnt want him to take away Little Yuanxi, but she couldnt stop him from meeting his son. All she could do was anxiously follow along, silently hoping that Little Yuanxi could convince himself to stay.

Inside Shallow Clouds Residence, Feng Tianlan caught the attention of Bo He and Qianhuan.

Their eyes sparkled with curiosity.

Young Master Yuanxi was the mistresss child, and this gentleman was Yuanxis father. Wasnt he the enigmatic figure who shared a spring night with the mistress five years ago?

Mr. Feng was undoubtedly impressive, but his face was somewhat ordinary, not matching the mistress elegance.

Young master Yuanxis distinctive looks were all thanks to the mistress beauty.

Skipping formalities, Gu Qingluan scanned the room and asked, Where are Xiaonan and Yuanxi?

Qianxi is playing with them in Xiaonans room, Qianhuan replied.

Gu Qingluan then led Feng Tianlan to Xiaonans room.

However, the room was empty.

Weird, where did everyone go? Bo He and Qianhuan looked around in surprise.

There was a faint strange smell in the air, almost imperceptible.

Gu Qingluan, familiar with dealing with medicines, noticed it.

Her gaze fell on a wooden box on the table, which had a spring attached to it and some white powder stuck on top of it. She reached out to touch it.

Be careful, it might be poisonous! Long, slender fingers with well-defined knuckles gently grasped her wrist.

Bo He and Qianhuan stood behind, exchanging knowing glances.

It seemed that the Mr. Feng cared a lot about the mistress.

Could their estate be preparing for a wedding?

Gu Qingluan twisted her wrist, freeing it from Feng Tianlans grip. I know what Im doing.

As her words fell, a translucent layer of light enveloped her hand.

Using her arcane power, she lifted the wooden box and brought it close to her nose, taking a delicate sniff.

Then, her expression changed.

Theres something strange about this powder. It contains Belladonna, Windchime Flower, and Gufeng Beast blood These substances can all make someone lose their senses.

Bo He and Qianhuan exclaimed, How could this be? This was sent by the Lus.h.i.+ Auction House. They wouldnt harm Xiaonan (Young Master Xiaonan), would they?

Youre saying this was sent by the Lus.h.i.+ Auction House?

Yes, the messenger said the Lus.h.i.+ Auction House sent a gift to the gate, specifying that its for Xiaonan. Young Master Lu has sent gifts a few times before, so we didnt think much of it. Could someone have used Young Master Lus name to send this harmful substance? Ah! Wont the two young masters be in danger?

Bo He and Qianhuan were extremely anxious.

When was it delivered?

Its been over half an hour.

A serious expression crossed Gu Qingluans face. Both of you, go inform Su Lie immediately. Check if there are any suspicious individuals in the estate and seal off all the exits. No one is to leave without my orders!

Yes! The two women nodded in unison and hurried away.

Gu Qingluan extended her consciousness throughout the estate.

Feng Tianlan didnt remain pa.s.sive either. Sensing the possibility that their son might have been taken, he closed his eyes and started to search.

After a while, Gu Qingluan opened her eyes, worriedly saying, Xiaonan and Yuanxi are both missing, and Xiao Bai and Qianxi arent in the estate either.

Dont worry, 1 have a general idea of where they might be, Feng Tianlan said, looking at her sideways.

His calm and profound eyes seemed to possess a magical power that soothed Gu Qingluans previously anxious heart.

Almost without realizing it, she grabbed his arm. Where are they?

The pressure on his arm made Feng Tianlan pause briefly. A hint of something subtle flickered in his eyes, yet his voice remained as tranquil as water. Theyre at the Fifth Princes Residence..
