"Do you know where he went?" Xiao Jinzhi asked.

Qin Li shook his head, "My subordinates have inquired about it. The boy guarding the door couldn't explain clearly. He only knew that Miss Chu took Xian Yue out."

"That's unfortunate." Xiao Jinzhi glanced at the carriage parked in the distance, "Go tell Pei Zhanqing."

"Yes." Qin Li responded.

When Pei Zhaoqing learned that Chu Huanyan was not in the house, he was obviously disappointed, and at the same time, he became more anxious.

Despondently, he turned the carriage around and prepared to go back home, but not long after he left, he received a message from the servant. Soon, he pretended to have met by chance on the street and stopped Xiao Jinzhi's carriage, and asked Xiao Jinzhi to give him a ride on the grounds that the carriage was broken down.

"Your Highness, I just received the news that Zhao Ran is not in the mansion either and has gone to Wangbai Tower."

Thinking that after Chu Huanyan agreed, he would need to hurry up and make an appointment with Liu Zhaoran, so Pei Zhaoqing specially sent someone to the Prime Minister's Mansion today to inquire whether Liu Zhaoran was going out.

Xiao Jinzhi leaned on the carriage, "Do you think Miss Liu probably went to see Huanyan?"

"That's right, why don't we also go to Bailou, maybe we can meet them." Pei Zhaoqing nodded and said.

"Even if they really meet, there is no need for us to disturb them. At worst, we can wait until Huanyan comes back and ask them what they said."

Pei Zhaoqing immediately shook his head, "No, in case they didn't talk about it, I just want to know what Zhaoran thinks about this engagement. Is he determined to terminate it, or is there room for negotiation!"

If you don't ask this clearly, then even if Miss Chu and Zhaoran meet, it will be of little use to you.

Looking at Pei Zhanqing's dark circles, Xiao Jinzhi smiled and sighed.

"That's all, for the sake of losing your wife, I will help you this time."

After saying that, Xiao Jinzhi ordered Qin Li who was driving outside, "Go and watch the white building."

……

In Wangbai Tower, since the private rooms were already occupied, Chu Huanyan sat by the window on the second floor.

Opposite her was Han Lingyan, the young master of the Han family who was highly recommended by Chu Huaishan.

Wearing a simple green gown, he has a modest and handsome appearance, a gentle smile, and is upright and upright.

"I heard that Miss Chu single-handedly supported the Ning'an Marquis Mansion, which is admirable."

"Mr. Han, I'm so grateful. I can't support the Hou Mansion alone. It's also thanks to the concerted efforts of the servants in the manor and the help of others." Chu Huanyan said with a calm smile on her face.

"Miss Chu, there is no need to be modest." Han Lingyan picked up the teapot in front of him and slowly poured a cup of tea for Chu Huanyan, "It is Ling Yan's honor to meet Miss Chu today. When my father mentioned this, I thought , Miss Chu is unwilling to come to meet."

"Why?" Chu Huanyan asked.

Han Lingyan put down the teapot, chuckled and said: "Although the Han family is in the pharmacy business, they also consult people on weekdays. Patients come and go, so the news is naturally better, so I heard a little... Miss Chu and News from His Highness the Crown Prince.”

Chu Huanyan raised her eyebrows slightly, "Mr. Han, do you think that I didn't come to see you sincerely? Or do you think that I want to please both sides?"

The person in front of him looks gentle and kind, but it can directly point out his relationship with Xiao Jinzhi, and he seems to be a straightforward and honest person.

"Don't be surprised, Miss Chu. I don't have any ill intentions, and I didn't speculate on anything without authorization. I just want to find out what the lady is thinking first, so as not to have any grudges and affect the subsequent relationship."

Han Lingyan looked at Chu Huanyan with a calm expression and added.

"Of course, the premise is that Miss Chu is willing to have further contact."

Chu Huanyan smiled and said, "Since Mr. Han gets straight to the point, I won't beat around the bush. I really have no interest in seeing each other."

Hearing Chu Huanyan's words, a touch of disappointment flashed across Han Lingyan's face, but then it turned into relief.

"Then why did Miss Chu come here today?"

"I heard from my second uncle that when my parents were alive, they had quite a relationship with the Han family..." Chu Huanyan didn't finish her words and looked at Han Lingyan with inquiring eyes, wanting to hear his opinion on this point.

The latter smiled and shook his head, "If the information I know is correct, I have only met a few times and have no deep friendship. On the contrary, Miss Chu's second uncle and my father got together to do business, which can be said to be It's like... they have the same odor."

Han Lingyan used these four words without politeness.

Chu Huanyan raised her lips and picked up the teacup in front of her, remembering the news that came back this morning.

Han Lingyan's father, Han Qizheng, did have a lot of business dealings with Chu Huaishan, but the two of them got together and the business was not clear. However, they usually played tricks, but each was better than the other.

The word "congenial" suits them quite well.

"So, is it your father's intention for Mr. Han to come to see you today?" Chu Huanyan asked.

Han Lingyan nodded, "To be honest, I'm not in a hurry about getting married. You can just let it happen and there's no need to force it. It's just that seeing Miss Chu just now... was indeed a bit of a surprise. But don't worry, Miss Chu. Since you have no intention of seeing each other, I Naturally, I won't force it. When I get back, I will tell my father and push the matter away completely. As for the reason, it can be said that Miss Chu has never taken a fancy to her. It's just that you have to deal with Miss Chu's second uncle's side. "

He had never met Chu Huanyan before. Although he had heard some news about her, the appearance of the person in front of him was really stunning, and his whole body had a good temperament.

It's just that he is a little surprised and is willing to have further contact. Since the other party has no intention, there is no need to waste time. There are still many things waiting for him to deal with in the medical clinic.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Han, but I am not here today because I care about my second uncle's face and cannot refuse."

Han Lingyan was confused, "Why is that?"

It’s not just because you have nothing to do that you take this trip.

"I came to see Mr. Han today because..."

Before Chu Huanyan finished speaking, Xiao Jinzhi's voice suddenly came from the stairs on the second floor.

"Looking at each other?

Chu Huanyan was stunned for a moment, turned around and saw Xiao Jinzhi's stiff handsome face.

Behind him, Qin Li and Pei Zhaoqing also had complicated expressions as they competed.

Pei Zhanqing, in particular, looked at Xiao Jinzhi with a full sense of sympathy in his eyes!

I originally wanted His Highness to help, but good guy, it turns out that not only him, but His Highness’s wife seems to be gone too!

Han Lingyan had never met Xiao Jinzhi. Judging from his demeanor, he felt that he must have a good status, but he didn't think too much about it for a while. He just looked at Chu Huanyan and asked, "Miss Chu, I wonder who this is?"
