Chapter 2049: Chapter 2049: Insufficient Cultivation Level, Lacking in Courage
After waking her up, we learned that Leng Yiyu had drugged her and run off somewhere. The maid was begging for mercy, crying a mess of snot and tears, talking about her own sufferings.
She was indeed in distress, drugged and unconscious, knowing nothing, only to be held accountable upon waking.
How could she, just roused from unconsciousness, know where the young miss had gone?
“Lady, could it be that the young miss made some mistake, feared your blame, and thus ran away?” The nanny, no longer as loyal to Lady Leng, casually speculated.
“What mistake could she have made?”
Lady Leng’s voice was sharp as she questioned the nanny.
At most, the young miss hadn’t come to see her the past few days. What other things were there? Did Leng Yiyu really need to drug her maid and run away?
“You must dispatch someone immediately to find that wicked girl.”
One son had already betrayed her, surely not both children she gave birth to could betray her. With a Leng Yikun already, another Leng Yiyu cannot be tolerated.
“Yes, Lady, this old servant will send someone to search right away.”
The nanny answered promptly and hurried out. She couldn’t stand to be around the Lady a moment longer; it was too suffocating.
She had seen it, the look Lady Leng gave to the maid was like she had been poisoned with venom, as if she wished she could dismember the maid on the spot.
To be honest, she felt the maid was too innocent. Who could have expected the young miss would drug a maid herself, rendering the person unconscious? Knowing what kind of person her mother was, she was treating the maid’s life as worthless.
However, with the young miss’s temperament, she was indeed capable of such deeds.
“A wicked girl is a wicked girl, just like this, how can this Lady still count on her?” Even after the nanny had walked far away, she could still hear Lady Leng’s scolding voice in the house.
She expected her daughter to stand up for her, but this Leng Yiyu insisted on opposing her, and now even the person had disappeared.
“Ah.”
The nanny sighed lightly, her face full of worry.
Lady Leng’s status was not as it used to be, and as a consequence, they, the nannies and maids, were also out of favor with the disciples of the Sect.
“Nanny, do we… do we still have someone who can be sent out?”
In the courtyard, seeing the nanny’s troubled look, a maid approached her and asked softly.
The Fourth Elder and his allies were dead; Lady Leng’s forces were scattered like monkeys. Where were there still disciples of the Eternal Night Sect who heeded the orders of the Lady?
Even the disciples in their own courtyard had mostly left, now replaced by confidants sent by the Sect Master.
Hearing the maid’s question, the nanny’s face grew even grimmer.
Indeed, who could she send out to find Leng Yiyu? It truly was a case of misfortunes bundling together like a leak on a rainy night gone worse; why would the young miss run off now?
“Go inquire within the Sect when the young miss left and who she left with.”
She instructed the maid.
Thinking that Leng Yiyu’s cultivation level was not high and she lacked courage, she definitely wouldn’t dare to leave the Sect alone. She must have left with someone.
As long as they inquired, they would be able to find out.
“Yes, Nanny.”
The maid responded and, taking a companion, the two went to find out news about Leng Yiyu.
Not long after, they returned with very important news that left the nanny utterly stunned.
