Lin Ruoxuan and Lin Ruoqiao were also stunned when they heard this. They never thought that such a thing would happen.

Lin Ruoqiao suddenly thought of some stories about ghosts and monsters that she had heard in the old house before, and couldn't help swallowing.

"Where...did they go?"

Lin Ruoqiao was asking about the women and unmarried women who had already returned home.

When Song Zhennan saw Lin Ruoqiao's expression, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, but he didn't want to scare Lin Ruoqiao and Lin Ruoxuan.

But he still planned to tell the truth about this matter. After all, this matter concerned the reputation of the Lin family.

"I heard that it was a group of men who couldn't afford to marry, so they kidnapped her to be their mistress. When they got tired of her, or when they found a better woman, they would release her."

Lin Ruoxuan and Lin Ruoxuan's faces turned pale. They didn't expect this to happen.

"So you should be more careful during this period. If the person behind the scenes is not caught, it will be a hidden danger after all."

Lin Ruoxuan didn't know what she was thinking about, and her expression suddenly became serious.

"Those women were released. Aren't they worried that they might report to the police?"

Lin Ruoxuan actually had an answer in her heart, but she still couldn't accept such a result for a while.

Sure enough, Song Zhennan chuckled when he heard this, but there was no smile in his eyes.

"After being released, those women didn't dare to report to the police. They even mentioned those people to cover up for their own reputation."

Lin Ruoxuan couldn't help but tighten her fingers.

Lin Ruoqiao, who was standing by, couldn't help but look surprised when she heard this.

"Eighth sister, do you think Third Sister's is also..."

Before Lin Ruoqiao finished her words, Lin Ruoxuan understood what she meant.

Lin Ruoxuan nodded, "If that's the case, then there's no time to waste."

"Father and mother have been waiting in the mansion for a long time. We should also inform them of the situation here."

Lin Ruoqiao stood up immediately.

Lin Ruoxuan looked at Gu Nanyuan and Song Zhennan, "I wonder if General Gu and Young Master Song can follow us back to the Song family and tell Father about this matter in detail?"

Gu Nanyuan and Song Zhennan naturally would not refuse. It would be strange if they refused such a legitimate reason to go to the Lin family.

After getting on the carriage, Gu Nanyuan thought of what Song Zhennan had mentioned today about the reputation of the Lin family, and he couldn't help but feel upset.

"If Lord Lin really takes Miss Three back to the mansion, what will you do?"

Lin Ruoxuan knew that what he wanted to ask was, if Lin Ruoxi was found, what would happen to the reputation of the Lin family?

After a long time, Lin Ruoxuan sighed.

"After all, Third Sister is Father's biological daughter. What we can do now is to tell Father all the clues we have found. As for what decision Father should make, that is his business."

Although Lin Shiyuan is partial, he is not the kind of person who ignores the overall situation, otherwise he would not have taken the position of the head of the Lin family.

After hearing this, Gu Nanyuan didn't say anything more.

At the Lin residence, Lin Shiyuan, Sun Rong, and the old lady were all waiting in the hall, hoping to hear news about Lin Ruoxi as soon as possible.

But after waiting for a long time, the people who went out to inquire about the news were unable to return home, which made everyone feel even heavier.

Seeing that it was getting late, Lin Shiyuan sighed.

"Mother, it's getting late. I'll have someone take you back first. Rong'er and I will stay here. When there's news from Sister Xi, I'll definitely send someone to notify you."

The old lady is really old after all, and she can’t hold on any longer when it’s too late.

The mansion is in chaos right now, and Lin Shiyuan is wholeheartedly waiting for news from Lin Ruoxi. Even if she stays here, she can't help much.

The old lady sighed and stood up. "It's getting late. If that's the case, I'll go back first. You and Sun should also take care of your health and don't get tired."

Lin Shiyuan knew that his mother was really worried about him, and his eyes couldn't help but become moist.

"Please rest assured, mother. I will definitely find Sister Xi."

The old lady didn't say anything more. She just raised her hand and asked someone to send her back.

Not long after the old lady left, the doorman who had been guarding the door suddenly rushed in.

Seeing this, Lin Shiyuan couldn't help but frown.

"Why are you so flustered?"

"Your Excellency, Miss Seven and Miss Eight are back, along with General Gu and one of his friends."

When Lin Shiyuan heard that Lin Ruoxuan had returned, his eyes suddenly brightened.

When he heard that Gu Nanyuan was behind this, he quickly stood up to greet him.

But before he could reach the door, Lin Ruoxuan and everyone else hurried over.

"Dad, is there any news about my third sister?"

"Is this true?"

Lin Shiyuan looked at Gu Nanyuan anxiously. He subconsciously thought that Lin Ruoxuan got the news from Gu Nanyuan.

Gu Nanyuan nodded, "We do have some clues, but it is not certain whether the third young lady of the Lin family was also captured."

When Lin Shiyuan heard Gu Nanyuan's words, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

"General Gu, just speak frankly."

"Master Lin, you may not know that we have heard that many women have gone missing in the capital these days. However, these women returned safe and sound after being missing for more than ten days, so no one has reported it to the authorities so far."

Lin Shiyuan's body was trembling slightly.

"What do you think Sister Xi is..."

Lin Ruoxuan looked at Lin Shiyuan's shaky body, couldn't help but sigh, and walked forward to help him sit down.

Looking at the worried Sun Rong beside him, he slowly patted her hands to comfort her silently.

Sun Rong looked at Lin Ruoxuan with some concern.

"Xuan Jie'er, don't talk nonsense. Nothing will happen to your third sister."

"Dad, Mom, we are just guessing about this matter. None of us knows what happened to our third sister."

At this moment, Lin Shiyuan suddenly sighed.

"Sister Xuan is right. When I learned that Sister Xi had not returned home at night, I guessed that she might have encountered some accident."

Lin Shiyuan's words made everyone silent.

"No matter what, Sister Xi is also the daughter of our Lin family, and we will never let her suffer any injustice."

"Even if she loses her reputation in the future and marries a country bumpkin from her hometown, it's better than dying."

Lin Ruoxi has always been Lin Shiyuan's most beloved daughter. Now that he knows that such a thing has happened to his daughter, how can he not be sad?

Lin Ruoxuan understood Song Shiyuan's character, so she was not surprised to hear what he said.

"Father, the third sister will come back. If she really lost her life, it would be easier for us to find her. In her current situation, at least her life is not threatened."

Everyone nodded, this is the truth.

"In that case, we will send someone to search secretly. If we get any news, we will definitely send someone to the Lin Mansion to deliver the news."
