The Farmer’s Eldest Daughter Has a Spatial Pocket
Chapter 1236: Duan Qian MissingChapter 1236: Duan Qian Missing
Duan Wan could not help but cry again. She held the egg and pastry and did not move for a long time.
After a while, she looked up and said, “Thank you.”
“Eat first.”
Duan Wan lowered her head and immediately wolfed down the food.
Gu Yundong frowned. She looked like she had not eaten for a long time and wished she could swallow everything in one breath. She was like a different person from the arrogant Miss Duan Gu Yundong had seen last time.
Duan Wan finally finished eating and wiped her mouth with her sleeve. She really could not care less about her image.
Gu Yundong handed the kettle over. “Slow down. Be careful not to choke. Why are you in such a sorry state? You haven’t eaten for a few days, right?”
“…I haven’t eaten for two days.” Duan Wan finished drinking the water, then lowered her head and said in a low voice, “After leaving Wanqing Prefecture, I hid everywhere.” Her tears fell again, and she wiped them with all her might and continued, “After that, I followed a caravan that went to Qing’an Prefecture and hid in the box of their carriage. I was afraid that they would find out, so I didn’t dare to make a sound. But I was too hungry and smelled the fragrance, so I couldn’t help but take the steamed buns from their caravan to eat. In the end, I was discovered the moment I took a bite. I left the steamed buns and ran away.”
Previously, she had only been drinking water and did not have much strength in her body. When she was being chased, she ran purely on instinct. Her legs were actually very weak.
She had no choice. If they caught up to her, she might lose her life.
Now that she was sitting in the carriage, she felt that her legs were trembling.
Gu Yundong and Tong Shuitao looked at each other and touched their noses silently. Duan Wan smelled a very fragrant smell. Could it be the hotpot that they made?
Gu Yundong coughed lightly and asked, “Why did you leave Wanqing Prefecture? Where’s your brother?”
Duan Wan pursed her lips. After a while, she choked and said, “He’s missing.”
“What did you say??” Gu Yundong was stunned. Missing?
Why did Duan Qian disappear?
Duan Wan sniffled. “Brother went to Qing’an Prefecture two months ago and said that he had a business deal to discuss, but he didn’t come back. Half a month ago, the servant boy who was with Brother came back and reported that Brother suddenly disappeared. He searched the entire Qing’an Prefecture but couldn’t find him. I don’t know where he went.”
Gu Yundong frowned. Qing’an Prefecture?
“Is that why you followed the Qing’an Prefecture’s convoy and left home to find your brother?” She guessed and then shook her head. No, if that was the case, there was no reason for someone to hunt her down.
Sure enough, Duan Wan shook her head. “I did want to find my brother, but I also knew that I didn’t have the ability, so I wanted to find someone to help me. But before I could find someone to help me, I… got into trouble.”
“Someone wanted to harm you?”
Duan Wan nodded and instantly gritted her teeth.
“It’s my second uncle. When he saw that my brother was missing, he told everyone that my brother was dead. The managers who followed my brother didn’t believe him and insisted on waiting for him to return. However, Second Uncle suddenly made things difficult for them. Who knew that Second Aunt would attack me at this time?”
Gu Yundong sighed inwardly. It was easy for problems to arise with a large family business.
As expected, Duan Qian had the entire Duan family in his hands at a young age. Naturally, there were people who were dissatisfied.
It was fine if he was supervising the Duan Family, but once something happened, these people would jump out and cause trouble.
