Gu Chuxin violently pulled away Ye Yu and took in the scenery of the cluttered space.
The dusty room was full of useless clutter, and the empty spot where Nan Yu had been bound only had a short piece of rope left—nothing else.
Gu Chuxin’s face was as dark as ink as she turned to Ye Yu and asked loudly, "Where is she? Where is that damned Li Yingying?"
A puzzled and bewildered expression appeared on Ye Yu’s face, his complexion pale as he shook his head frantically.
"Chuxin, I don’t know where she went either."
It was like magic; the person had been immobilized by drugs and tied up, locked in here.
How did she vanish into thin air?!
Gu Chuxin gradually cald down, her eyes growing icy and dark.
"It seems like soone ca to rescue her and let her out."
The dicine she used had been mixed according to Gu Gongming’s formula; there were definitely no problems with it.
In such a short amount of ti, even if that Li surnad woman was her junior sister and knew how to counteract the poison, it was impossible to recover from the drug’s effects so quickly and leave this place.
Soone had definitely co here to rescue her!
Gu Chuxin turned back to Ye Yu, "You leave the Nan Family ancestral ho first and look outside. I’ll stay here and search, to see if I can find her."
She didn’t yet know that her junior sister was actually Nan Yu; she still thought that the junior sister was that fake "Li Yingying."
Ye Yu’s expression was solemn as he replied, "Alright!"
After speaking, he left without hesitation.
After he was gone, Gu Chuxin looked around the area and found no sign of anyone or any traces of escape.
She bit her teeth, irritation flashing through her eyes.
Just as she walked out of the courtyard in the north, thinking of checking nearby, she ran into Nan.
Upon seeing Gu Chuxin here, a hint of surprise flickered in Nan Zhou’s eyes.
"Vice Chairman Gu, I’ve been looking for you for a long ti. What are you doing here?"
Gu Chuxin quickly changed her deanor, revealing a smile.
"There’s been so much happening tonight, and I felt suffocated at the main courtyard, so I decided to go for a walk. I didn’t expect to get lost and end up here."
Nan Zhou saw that the door to the storage space behind her was open, and he couldn’t help frowning slightly.
His face was naturally commanding and intimidating, inspiring fear.
"Vice Chairman Gu, this is just a small storage area, rarely visited by anyone. It’s easy to get lost here. In the future, if you want to go for a walk, consider having a servant accompany you."
Gu Chuxin, concealing the trepidation in her heart, nodded stiffly with a forced smile.
Then, as if she had just rembered sothing, she said, "By the way, Nan Zhou, was there sothing you wanted from ?"
Nan Zhou’s gaze withdrew as he spoke, "Vice Chairman Gu, my mother has woken up but is now unconscious again. We can’t find Doctor Li, so I was hoping you could co have a look."
Gu Chuxin had already heard the news during the banquet and was not surprised about Duan Zhu waking up.
But when Nan Zhou said they couldn’t find Doctor Li, she breathed a sigh of relief.
It seed that no one had found that Li surnad person; as long as she found Li before everyone else, she wouldn’t have to worry about her deeds being exposed.
Afterward, it would only be natural for that "Li Yingying" to disappear completely!
Gu Chuxin suppressed all her emotions and said to Nan Zhou, "Then let’s hurry."
Having said that, she imdiately started walking ahead of Nan Zhou, striding quickly towards the main courtyard.
Nan Zhou looked at her retreating figure and then glanced back at the cluttered room inside, a trace of unreadable emotion flitting through his eyes.
He clearly rembered that this afternoon, Nan Qingqing had specifically asked him where the quietest place was in the ancestral ho, and he had ntioned this place.
And now, with Gu Chuxin sneaking around here and Doctor Li missing, all of this seed too much of a "coincidence"!
