Chapter 3067 No Need to Wait
Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao returned to her yurt, kicked off her shoes, and settled onto the plush couch. There, she sat cross-legged, resembling a mountain in repose.
"Qiaoqiao," Mo Lian lifted the curtain and entered, taking a seat beside her. "Qiaoqiao, are you unhappy?"
"No!"
"Are you upset with Big Bro?"
"I"m not upset with him." Qiao Mu sat up, her gaze serious. "I understand. He has been with that mother-daughter pair since childhood, so his perspectives can"t change overnight."
"Moreover," Qiao Mu continued with indifference, "that woman raised him single-handedly. After all these years of interaction, he must have some attachment. If he can"t easily let go of his own sister, it means that my Big Bro values relations.h.i.+ps. Why should I blame him?"
Mo Lian drew closer and enveloped her in his arms. "My Qiaoqiao is so understanding."
Qiao Mu tilted her head, finding his approach amusing.
This man always adopted a pacifying tone, as if calming a child.
"Since you"re not upset, let"s go find Big Bro for a meal later. Despite Big Bro promising Holy Son to join the search and rescue at Spring River, I"m sure his mind is in turmoil right now. He"s afraid you"ll be angry."
Qiao Mu put down her legs and nodded.
Mo Lian chuckled softly, lifting her onto his lap. "Qiaoqiao is so obedient."
Meanwhile, Holy Son Miyan observed Qiao Mu and Mo Lian departing after a brief stay. "What does everyone think?"
"I suggest dividing into three teams and concentrating on the search."
"It"s a good plan. If we can"t find them, we"ll take a day"s rest upon our return and then set out again."
"Agreed!" No objections were raised, and everyone nodded in consensus.
"Eldest Young Sir, why hasn"t Second Young Sir arrived yet?" The Holy Son turned to Eldest Qin, wearing a puzzled expression.
Second Young Sir Qin"s cultivation stood out prominently among this group.
Even the senior students from the Imperial Academy, Di"ao, Turbo, and others had already reached the campsite, making it puzzling not to see Second Young Sir Qin.
Upon hearing this, Duan Yue sneered involuntarily. "Second Young Sir? No need to wait."
Eldest Young Sir Qin turned his gaze toward Duan Yue, puzzled. "Has His Highness the Chen Prince encountered my younger brother?"
"More than that, he was even chased away by us."
The others looked uncertain.
"Your brother rushed to the Red River Canyon before us and captured Qiaoqiao," Duan Yue stated coldly. "If we hadn"t pursued her, Qiaoqiao might still be in your brother"s clutches!"
"How is that possible?" Qin Xuan was taken aback. "Are you serious?"
"Absolutely true," Duan Yue replied coldly. "Second Young Sir"s actions are infuriating."
"Eldest Young Sir Qin, as his elder brother, you need to rein him in."
Qin Xuan was somewhat speechless and didn"t know how to respond.
As Duan Yue stood up, Qin Xuan followed suit, cupping his hands. "I apologize, Your Highness. I was unaware of this."
"Does His Highness know where my younger brother went?"
Duan Yue turned around, his cold, lonely peach blossom eyes fixed on Qin Xuan. "He used a transfer talisman matrix to escape."
"Eldest Young Sir, you must control your younger brother"s actions!" Mu Xingchen said indignantly.
