As Song Shiwei approached step by step, fear appeared in the eyes of the proprietress of Luoshangfang. She swallowed her saliva and forced herself to calm down: "I don't know anything. I really don't know where Miss Lin is. You can't kill me in broad daylight. If you kill me, my family will know and report it to the government. Then you will not be able to escape."

Seeing the little girl holding the dagger stop, the proprietress of Luoshangfang thought that they had been frightened by bringing up the government. She was about to breathe a sigh of relief when she heard a sneer. She looked up and met a pair of deep eyes.

Song Shiwei had a smile on his face, but there was no smile in his eyes. He walked a few steps to the woman, slowly squatted down and looked her in the eye: "So you have family. That's great. You go first, and later I will let your family go down with you, so you won't be alone on the road to the underworld."

Feeling the coldness on her neck, as if her throat was about to be cut, the proprietress panicked: "You, you, you can't kill me. If you kill me, you will never find that girl."

Song Shiwei was indifferent, the dagger on the woman's neck did not move at all, looking at her with a cold gaze, and said, "Luoshangfang has been open in the capital for decades. It is said that the proprietress of Luoshangfang is a rare kind person. She has never quarreled with anyone for many years and is honest in doing business. For what reason would such a shop, which is praised by everyone, stir up this muddy water even at the cost of offending the Lin family?"

Looking at the other party's flickering eyes, Song Shi curled his lips slightly and said, "Let me guess. Seeking the skin of a tiger is nothing more than for money and power. Although Luoshangfang is not as profitable as Huajin Pavilion, it also has very good business. Money should not be lacking. Then it can only be power. It is human nature to fear power. The person who can make you bet on Luoshangfang and cooperate with him even if it offends the Lin family is definitely not a small official. At least he must be an official of the third rank or above to coerce him."

As the other party's increasingly terrified eyes, Song Shiwei put away the dagger and slowly stood up, looking at her with a mocking look: "Do you think that you can just cooperate with the other party this time? But you don't know that some people are the most difficult to satisfy. If you are once, you will be satisfied countless times. If one day you are no longer useful, not to mention you, even your family's lives will be killed. After all, only the dead can keep secrets in this world. Now, do you still want to continue hiding it?"

"I, I'll tell you everything," the proprietress was no longer calm, her face full of panic and fear as she explained everything clearly.

Originally, Song Shiwei thought that it was Cao Chong who did it, but he didn't know that it was someone else who did it. As for the reason, the proprietress of Lin Ting's place really didn't know, but after she told him who the other party was, it was not difficult to investigate what happened afterwards.

As soon as Song Shiwei and Li Wan walked out, they bumped into Lin Shouren and his son who were in a hurry. Qingdai had been in the house the whole time, so she naturally heard what the proprietress said. When Lin Shouren asked anxiously, she hurriedly told him what the proprietress said.

After learning that the person who kidnapped his daughter was the Left Vice-Censor of the Inspectorate, Lin Shouren's face turned gloomy. He suppressed his anger and told Uncle Fu to investigate. Lin Mubai was worried about Lin Ting's safety, so he followed Uncle Fu away.

Li Wan stepped forward and said, "Uncle Lin, this is not the place to talk. Otherwise, let's go find a teahouse and wait for news from Uncle Fu."

Lin Shouren nodded and took the two of them to a teahouse not far away. After entering the private room, he stopped talking and did not hide his anxious expression at all.

Half an hour later, the person who went out to investigate secretly came back with the official's information.

Everything you do will leave traces, and it is not difficult to find out the information from officials. The method used to kidnap Lin Ting was not so concealed that it could be concealed from the world. After a thorough search by the people sent by the Lin family, they quickly found out where Lin Ting was. It was just as Song Shiwei had expected, he was still in a remote courtyard in the west city. Because there were many people guarding him, the people who went to investigate secretly were afraid of alerting the enemy, so they did not act rashly, but hurried back to report.

Upon learning where Lin Ting was, Lin Shouren suddenly stood up and asked Uncle Fu to call the guards outside the city to rescue Lin Ting.

Li Wan hurriedly tried to stop him, and under Lin Shouren's puzzled gaze, she slowly said, "Don't worry, Uncle Lin. Niao Niao is a girl, and it's not appropriate to save her in such a high-profile way. It would be better to act secretly and catch the other party off guard."

Lin Shouren calmed down instantly, frowning and thinking. After a while, he finally spoke: "I am anxious. This matter should be done secretly. Lin Fu, go to the farm and select a few skilled guards to sneak into the city."

Uncle Fu responded in a deep voice.

Song Shiwei thought about the location he had just learned, and after a moment's hesitation, he asked, "If those people died, would the Lin family be in trouble?"

Lin Shouren was stunned at first, then he smiled happily: "What kind of trouble can it be? Isn't it because the other party is afraid that my Lin family will know the truth that they force Luo Shangfang to cooperate? Even if we kill those guards in front of him, what can he do to my Lin family?"

Seeing him so confident, Song Shiwei felt relieved and stood up and said, "In that case, I will bring Niao Niao back."

After saying that, he left the box.

Lin Shouren stared blankly at the direction where Song Shiwei disappeared. After a while, he said to the servant outside the door, "What are you still standing there for? Lead the way!"

Walking out of the teahouse, Lin Shouren looked at Li Wan and said, "Niece, I'm afraid I won't have time to take care of you in a while. I'll have someone send you home and send you news after Niao Niao comes back, okay?"

Li Wan knew that she could not help much, so she nodded and said, "Then I will go home and wait for news. Uncle Lin, you don't need to send someone to send me. The family carriage is just opposite. I will go home by myself."

"it is good."

After Li Wan left, Lin Shouren quickly asked someone to take him to the destination to meet up with Lin Mubai.

After leaving the teahouse, Song Shiwei went straight to the house where Lin Ting was imprisoned. As soon as he arrived at the destination, he could clearly sense dozens of heavy breathing sounds in the house, as well as a faint aura around him.

Perhaps it was because Song Shiwei stayed in front of the house for too long, or perhaps it was because her attention was too obvious and she didn't seem like she was just passing by. The guard of the Lin family who was guarding there saw that the woman was about to approach the house, so he jumped up and stopped steadily in front of her to prevent any accidents.

"Girl, get out of here."

Song Shiwei raised his eyelids and looked at him quietly. His eyes stayed on the guard's collar for a moment, and then he raised his eyebrows: "Someone from the Lin family."

The guard's pupils shrank and he tightened his grip on the sword at his waist.

"Since you are from the Lin family, tell me what's going on inside."

The guard asked sternly, "Who are you?"

Song Shi frowned slightly, without even looking at him, he quickly climbed up the high wall and jumped into the house in the blink of an eye.

The guard was stunned and afraid of any accidents, so he took a few steps back and rushed towards the high wall. With a deep shout, he also climbed over the wall.

As soon as he jumped into the yard, the guard was shocked by the scene before him.

The whole yard was covered in blood, and dozens of people were lying on the ground without a sound.

The guard's heart trembled. He went forward to check and confirmed that these people had their throats cut by a sword. He was shocked and felt aggrieved for a long time.

"I said, that guy from the Lin family, have you seen enough?"

The guard turned around suddenly and saw the woman who had entered the courtyard before him walking out of a room with her daughter. The guard immediately drew his sword and said, "Let my daughter go."

Song Shiwei rolled her eyes for the first time in her life and said unhappily, "Go open the door, find a carriage, and send her back to the Lin family."
