Chapter 413 It was you who insisted on sending him to the Imperial Academy

Yun Jin pushed open the door and entered. As soon as Chu Wanqing saw her, she rushed up and grabbed her hand: "Jin'er, tell your mother, has something happened to Lang Ge'er? My eyelids have been twitching all morning, and my heart is pounding. Jin'er, I need to go find him, I need to go to the Imperial Academy..."

Yun Jin hugged her tightly and said urgently, "Mother! Mother, please listen to me. Ayan has already taken people to look for him. Trust me, Lang Ge'er will be alright. He has Fusheng with him, and Fusheng is very clever. If you rush out like this and something happens to him, Lang Ge'er will be so heartbroken when he comes back and can't see you."

Chu Wanqing trembled in her arms, tears streaming down her face, her voice broken and intermittent: "Jin'er... that's your younger brother, my son... if anything happens to him, I won't be able to live either..."

Yun Jin gently patted her back, comforting her, "Mother, I know you're worried about Lang Ge'er. But think about it, if they just wanted Lang Ge'er dead, why would they go through all this trouble to take him away? They must have other purposes for taking him away. At least for now, Lang Ge'er is safe."

Chu Wanqing held her hand for a long while before saying in a hoarse voice, "Jin'er, promise your mother that you will bring Lang Ge'er back safely."

Yun Jin nodded vigorously: "I promise you, I will bring him back safely."

Chu Wanqing raised her eyes again, looking at Yun Jin earnestly, and said, "And you too. You and Lang Ge'er are both my lifeblood, and neither of you can get hurt. You also need to be careful and not let your mother worry about you anymore."

Yun Jin nodded with red eyes, about to offer a few more words of comfort, when suddenly a series of hurried and chaotic footsteps came from outside.

Yun Heting arrived before he did, but his voice preceded his words: "What happened? How could Lang-ge'er be missing? What are the people at the Imperial Academy doing?!"

He lifted the curtain and came in, still in his official robes, looking anxious. It was hard to tell whether he was worried about finding it or about not being able to find it at all.

Yun Jin looked up at him and said calmly, "His Highness Prince Yu has already arranged for people to go and look for them."

He paced back and forth in the room a couple of times, then suddenly turned around, pointed at Yun Jin, and said, "It was you who insisted on sending him to study at the Imperial Academy! If he had stayed in the manor to study, how could anyone have taken advantage of him? Now that he's disappeared, tell me, where are we going to look for him!"

Yun Jin looked up at him, a cold smile playing on her lips: "So, Godfather means that we're safe here in the manor? Have you forgotten what happened when Physician Du poisoned Lang Ge'er? If people could feel safe here in the manor, Lang Ge'er wouldn't have suffered like that."

Chu Wanqing looked at him coldly, her voice filled with suppressed anger: "Your son is missing, and instead of rushing to look for him, you're here blaming Jin'er. Is that what a father should say?"

Yun Heting was speechless for a moment, opened his mouth but didn't say anything more. He just flicked his sleeve and said, "I'll go to the Jingzhao Prefecture to make arrangements and ask them to send more people." After saying that, he turned to leave.

Yun Jin added slowly from behind him, "Godfather, Lang Ge'er is the only male heir of the Yun family. If something happens to him, the Yun family line will end. Godfather should know this better than anyone else."

Yun Heting paused, his expression changed, and he said, "Of course," before walking away without looking back.

After he walked away, Chu Wanqing gritted her teeth and said, "He wouldn't really go looking for him. I'm afraid he'd be hoping something bad would happen to Lang Ge'er. Once I find Lang Ge'er, I'll divorce Yun Heting. I can't stand staying in this house for another day."

Yun Jin gave Dong Xue a wink, and Dong Xue understood, turning and leaving.

Yun Jin then sat down next to Chu Wanqing and said in a low voice, "Mother, don't worry. My maid Hongling is skilled at tracking, and Ayan has no shortage of capable people under his command. We will find Lang Ge'er's whereabouts soon. Once we find him, I don't want Lang Ge'er to return to the Yun family. At that time, you and Yun Heting will divorce, and if something really happens to Yun Heting in the future, it won't implicate Lang Ge'er."

Chu Wanqing stared at her blankly for a moment, then nodded emphatically: "Okay. I'll do whatever you say."

Just then, Old Madam Yun, supported by Granny Wang and followed by Liu Zhixue, hurried over.

As soon as the old lady entered the door, she slapped her thigh and cried, "My poor Lang'er, he's only been at the Imperial Academy for a few days, how could such a thing happen! Who has such audacity to mess with a student of the Imperial Academy right under the emperor's nose!"

Wanqing, don't worry too much. I just ran into Heting outside. He said he went to the Jingzhao Prefecture. Don't worry, Langge'er will definitely be found.

After saying that, she turned to Yun Jin, wiped away non-existent tears, and said, "Jin'er, talk to His Highness Prince Yu and ask him to help look for her. Lang Ge'er is, after all, his future brother-in-law, so he should do his part out of courtesy and reason."

Yun Jin said calmly, "Don't worry, Grandmother. The Prince treats Lang Ge'er like his own younger brother, even more so than I, as his older sister."

Grandma Yun's face stiffened, and she said awkwardly, "That's good, that's good."

Yunxiu also moved closer to Chu Wanqing, her eyes red, and advised, "Mother, don't worry too much. Lang'er is a lucky person; he will definitely come back safely."

Liu Zhixue chimed in, "Yes, Madam, the young master is very lucky and will definitely be alright."

As she spoke, she walked to the table, poured a cup of tea, and placed it beside Chu Wanqing, saying softly, "Madam, have some tea to calm your nerves. Young Master still needs your support; you can't afford to collapse."

Chu Wanqing turned her face away, her voice hoarse: "I'm not thirsty."

Yun Jin reached out and took the cup of tea, smiling, "Thank you for your trouble, Mr. Liu. I'll take care of Mother here; I'll feed her the tea later."

She paused for a moment, then suddenly said, "Mr. Liu, my older sister has always told me you are intelligent. Tell me, Lang-ge'er is so well-behaved and has never offended anyone, so who could be trying to harm him?"

Liu Zhixue was taken aback, then sighed and said, "Second Miss, your question has stumped me. I have never done anything immoral, so how would I know what evil people are thinking?"

Yun Jin stared at her intently for a long while before saying with a half-smile, "Is that so?"

Yunxiu, unable to bear it any longer, said in an unfriendly tone, "Second sister, the most important thing right now is to find Lang-ge'er. What's the point of you saying all this?"

Yun Jin tilted her head to look at her and nodded seriously: "Elder sister is absolutely right. I have already asked His Highness Prince Yu to help me find someone. Elder sister, could you also mention it to His Highness Prince Liang?"

I believe that if my elder sister speaks up, His Highness Prince Liang will surely lend a hand. The more people there are, the greater the hope of Lang'er's return.

Yunxiu was put in an awkward position by her, and could only force herself to say, "I will go to the Liang Prince's residence right away and personally ask His Highness for help."

After saying that, she hurriedly bowed to Chu Wanqing, turned around and walked away quickly.

The old lady couldn't sit still any longer and got up to say she was going to the ancestral hall to pray for the ancestors' blessings. Liu Zhixue followed her and took her leave.

Chu Wanqing stared at their departing figures, gritting her teeth as she said, "Did you see that? Not a single person in this room is sincere."
