“That’s right,” Mrs Zuo said. “Qingyu never found her a worthy companion.”
“Speaking of Qingyu —” Mrs Zuo suddenly realized sothing. “Why don’t I see her?”
She then had a bad feeling.
“And I haven’t seen Qingxian either. Where are they?” Mrs Dugu was perplexed.
“Yamo, ngxi, you ca out together. Did you see Qingyu and Qingxian?” Mrs Dugu asked her two children.
That question…
Dugu ngxi and Dugu Yamo didn’t know how to answer them.
Dugu Yamo turned to leave.
Dugu ngxi was slower, and was stopped by his mother.
“ngxi, where are your cousins?” Sohow, Mrs Zuo felt uneasy.
The blow was so hard that Dugu ngxi had yet to recover from it.
How was he supposed to tell his aunt?
“Aunt, stop asking,” Dugu ngxi shook Mrs Zuo’s hand off and turned to leave.
Mrs Zuo felt even more uneasy. She rushed over and grabbed Dugu ngxi. “Stop right there! Tell ! Where are Qingyu and Qingxian? Where did they go?!”
Dugu ngxi said, “Aunt, I can’t…”
Mrs Zuo had an ominous feeling. “Speak!”
Dugu ngxi took a deep breath. “Well, if you insist… I didn’t want to tell you. So, are you ready to hear it?”
“ngxi, stop dawdling. Just tell your aunt where Qingyu and Qingxian are! Can’t you tell that your aunt is worried sick?” Mrs Dugu scolded Dugu ngxi.
Dugu ngxi said, “Mom, how am I supposed to tell her that both of my cousins are dead?!”
Mrs Zuo felt like she had been struck by lightning.
“Wanhua, Wanhua…”
No matter how loud Mrs Dugu yelled, Mrs Zuo remained unconscious.
Everyone panicked.
It was simply too much for Mrs Zuo.
By then, soone had already dashed off to get Master Zuo.
“How? How did this happen?” Mrs Dugu stared at Dugu ngxi. “What’s going on? How did they die?”
Master Zuo arrived at that mont and asked, “What happened to Qingyu and Qingxian?! Say sothing!”
Mrs Zuo woke up at that mont.
“Master —” She burst into tears when she saw her husband. “They said… They said that Qingyu and Qingxian are dead… Oh god…”
Master Zuo swayed. His vision went dark, and he almost fainted.
The others imdiately steadied him.
“How… Why? Who did this? Who killed them?!”
“It was Feng Wu!” Recalling what happened to Feng Liu, Dugu ngxi blurted out the words.
Dugu ngxi grew anxious. She kicked Dugu ngxi and said, “You don’t know that! Don’t make things up!”
Dugu ngxi didn’t dare speak a word after that.
But both Master Zuo and Mrs Zuo heard him.
“What did you say?! Feng Wu?! Tell ! What happened?” They rushed to Dugu ngxi’s side and grabbed his arms.
