TFWYH – Chapter 576 The Hardships of a Wolf’s Life

Silver Gale grew furious and stretched out its claws.

Gray Lightning quickly cooed, Coo coo~

If you dare hurt me, big sister won’t let you off!

Hearing that, Silver Gale forcibly stopped its claws midway, then lay on the ground looking dispirited.

A wolf’s life was hard!

It used to be so mighty, yet now even a bird came to bully it.

And worst of all—it didn’t even dare fight back!

No one except Tang Wan knew of Silver Gale’s frustration.

Though the courtyard house was small, it had many rooms.

Madam Jiang and her three children, together with the Night guards, could manage to stay there if they squeezed in a little.

But in the end, Night Four and the others did not stay there. They said they were going to find Yuanyuan!

When Night Two had written to them, he had said that Night One’s Ink Pavilion was beginning to get on the right track. They worried Night One might be short-handed and wanted to go help.

Tang Wan did not stop them, only keeping Night Ten behind.

Night Ten looked completely bewildered. She… she also wanted to go with her little companions!

Tang Wan saw that she was unhappy and immediately said, “I opened a medical clinic in the capital. Aren’t you skilled in medicine? Stay and help me.”

Hearing this, Night Ten instantly threw thoughts of her companions to the back of her mind.

Her mistress’s medical skills were excellent. If she could learn from her, she would only improve faster. She was very willing.

In the end, the small courtyard was left with only Madam Jiang and her children, Tang Wan, Night Ten, and… Yu Ziqing!

After helping Madam Jiang make the bed, Tang Wan came out and saw that he still had not left. She could not help but ask curiously, “Are you planning to stay here overnight?”

That wouldn’t be appropriate, would it?

Aside from little Ling Chen, they were all women here!

As for Mu Qingfeng, he had gone to escort Ling Yu to the palace.

Yu Ziqing rolled his eyes at her irritably before saying, “This young master’s home is in the capital. Why would I mooch off your place? I only wanted to tell you something. Aunt Jiang and the others ran into a little accident in Weng City, but they agreed not to tell you because they were afraid you’d worry.”

Tang Wan frowned slightly. “A little accident?”

“Mhm.” Yu Ziqing nodded and told her about how Madam Jiang and Ling Yue had been kidnapped by a mysterious masked man.

After hearing it, Tang Wan’s brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

Only after finishing did Yu Ziqing look at her and say, “I heard your father was also taken by mysterious people. So I was thinking—could the people who troubled Aunt Jiang and Yue’er be the same group who took your father? If so, then you’d better discuss it carefully with your husband and prepare yourselves.”

“I understand. Thank you.”

“It’s nothing. As long as you know what’s going on.”

After telling Tang Wan about it, Yu Ziqing did not linger and took his leave.

Tang Wan escorted him to the door, then spoke calmly, “Su Xi.”

The moment her words fell, a breeze swept by. Su Xi appeared beside her and dropped to one knee.

Tang Wan turned her head to look at her. “What happened? Get up and speak.”

“This subordinate dares not.” Su Xi did not rise and remained kneeling.

Tang Wan narrowed her eyes dangerously. “You know who that masked man is?”

Su Xi lowered her gaze. “Yes.”

Tang Wan: “Who?”

“This subordinate cannot say.” As she spoke, her head lowered even more.

Tang Wan pondered for a moment. She already had a guess in her heart, so she did not make things difficult for her. Instead, she asked again, “Then were the people who took my father the same group as that masked man? Surely you can answer that.”

Hearing this, Su Xi quickly said, “Little Mistress, I swear—the mysterious masked man and the people who took Uncle Tang are absolutely not the same group.”

“That’s enough. You may go.” Tang Wan waved her hand and asked no more.

Su Xi sighed softly, then vanished into the shadows in a flash.

She thought Tang Wan had surely guessed it already.

Tang Wan indeed had guessed it.

After spending these days together, Tang Wan trusted Su Xi’s loyalty to her.

But she had not forgotten that before serving her, Su Xi had followed several other masters.
