A Girl Traveling Through Troubled Times

Chapter 124 Miss Rong’s Tragic Experience

After going to the hospital for a check-up, the condition was not too serious, but it required applying ointment and medicine. After leaving the hospital, Sha Yanxiao took Guier to a French restaurant for dinner.

Only then did Guier ask about Miss Rong.

Sha Yanxiao sighed and said, "I've been so busy looking for you these past two days that I haven't had time to ask about the progress over there. But I did ask Dali to go look for you with the Rong family. Now that you're back safely, I'll go to the Rong family soon."

Gui'er felt a little sorry. She looked carefully and saw that Sha Yanxiao's eyes were bloodshot. It seemed that he didn't sleep well. She wanted to ask him to rest, but Miss Rong was kidnapped with a targeted purpose. She was afraid that the situation was even more dangerous than her own. She had to be rescued as soon as possible.

Sha Yanxiao sent Gui'er back to the villa and then set off to Rong's house to help find Miss Rong.

Gui'er had not been at home for two days when Tong Yujun came to play with him. They went to Sincere Department Store together, watched a movie and had dessert. Gui'er felt that Tong Yujun seemed unhappy, so he asked her what was wrong?

Tong Yujun said: "My family arranged a blind date between me and the young master of the Song family."

Gui'er was shocked when she heard this. How shameless were the Tong family? If the eldest daughter wasn't suitable, they arranged for the youngest to come?

Tong Yujun quickly waved her hands and said, "No, it's the second young master of the Song family."

Song Xilun?

Gui'er hasn't seen Song Xilun much since he left the Song family, but he has a good impression of Song Xilun. He is polite and courteous. Although he has little presence in the Song family, he seems to have never heard of him having some of the bad habits of a playboy.

Gui'er asked Tong Yujun, "Don't you want to go on a blind date with him?"

Tong Yujun said, "No, but I can't really explain why."

After Guier came into this world, she saw too many old men with dirt in their throats marrying young girls. Now, looking at the age difference between Song Xichenlun and Tong Yujun and their families, she actually thought that this was a good marriage.

Gui'er said to Tong Yujun, "You know I'm from the Song family. When I was there, although I didn't have much contact with the second young master, there weren't any bad rumors about him. He also went to school in Shanghai and is quite knowledgeable. I think you should meet him."

Tong Yujun said hesitantly, "Really? Then I'll think about it."

Guier smiled and nodded.

For the next few days, Sha Yanxiao was nowhere to be seen the whole day.

Until New Year's Eve on the 30th of the lunar year, housekeeper Liu was arranging people to put up couplets and hang lanterns. Gui'er and the three Miss Zhangs were watching the fun on the second-floor balcony. Sha Yanxiao came in from outside with a tired face.

Gui'er quickly ran over and asked, "Brother Yanxiao, Miss Rong, have you found it?"

Sha Yanxiao smiled and said, "Found it. He's recuperating in the hospital now."

Gui'er knew there must be some twists and turns. Miss Rong had been held captive for so long, she must have suffered a lot. So she asked him, "Are you okay? Where are you injured? Is it serious?"

Sha Yanxiao glanced at the people around him and said, "Let's go back to the room and talk."

After entering the room, Sha Yanxiao sat down on the sofa and said a little depressedly: "One of my eyes was broken. I have been bullied for so many days..."

It took Gui'er several seconds to react and she gasped. Miss Rong must have suffered a lot of inhuman torture these days. Gui'er said to Sha Yanxiao, "Can I go see her?"

Sha Yanxiao agreed. The next day, while the family was having breakfast, Sha Yanxiao said to Guier, "I'll take you to see Miss Rong later. Be good and talk to her and comfort her."

Guier nodded.

Suddenly, Butler Liu came in with a newspaper and said hesitantly, "Marshal, Young Marshal, this newspaper says..."

The Marshal said impatiently, "What's the matter?"

Sha Yanxiao said, "Let me see what's written in the newspaper."

Butler Liu handed him the newspaper. Gui'er, who was sitting next to him, also leaned over to take a look. The headline on the front page read, "Daughter of Textile King Gang-Raped and Disabled." Below it was a long and vivid description. It didn't seem like news, but more like celebrity gossip.

Sha Yanxiao's face turned pale with anger. He threw the newspaper down, didn't even eat his meal, turned around and ran out. Gui'er quickly followed him out.

After getting in the car, Sha Yanxiao said to Dali, "Call He Mulin and ask him to find out who wrote today's front-page headline. Also, withdraw all the newspapers that can be withdrawn. Now let's go to Rong Mansion first."

Seeing that Sha Yanxiao's face was not right, Dali didn't dare to say anything more. He just said, "Okay," and then drove them to Rongfu.

It was Guier's first time to visit the Rong Mansion. It was a super large courtyard with several villas. It was said that the uncles and aunts of the Rong Mansion lived together as a whole family, so they built so many villas. They were standard European-style buildings, and the windows in the buildings were all made of colored glass patterns, which were magnificent and exquisite.

As soon as Sha Yanxiao walked into Yong's house, everyone, whether servants or managers, greeted him, which showed that they were already familiar with each other.

He dragged Gui'er into the middle villa and saw a lady in her 50s hurrying up to them. She said with a worried look on her face, "Yan Xiao, you're finally here. What's going on with today's newspaper? We didn't dare show it to her."

Sha Yanxiao comforted her and said, "Mrs. Rong, don't worry. I've already sent people to investigate. We'll try to withdraw any newspapers that can be withdrawn. Just don't let her know."

At that moment, a middle-aged man in his 50s came over, puffing on a cigar. He said, "I'm afraid we can't withdraw it. The newspaper with the front page is controlled by the mafia, and other newspapers have also published it. I called them personally and they said someone tipped them off that this news is explosive. If they don't, others will. So they published it. It's in all the newspapers in Shanghai. Sooner or later, Niuniu will find out."

This person should be Miss Rong’s father, Boss Rong.

Sha Yanxiao frowned upon hearing this. Mrs. Rong saw Gui'er and asked, "Who is this young lady?"

Sha Yanxiao said, "This is my sister Gui'er. She wanted to come over and see Miss Rong."

Mrs. Rong smiled and said, "Oh, so this is Miss Gui'er." Then she came over, took Gui'er's hand and said to Gui'er, "It's okay for you to chat with her, but don't tell her about the newspaper."

Guier agreed, and Mrs. Rong took her to Miss Rong's room.

Miss Rong was lying on the bed, with an eye patch on one eye and gauze wrapped around her forehead. It was obvious that she was seriously injured.

Mrs. Rong said to her gently, "Niuniu, Miss Guier is here to see you."

Miss Rong turned her head when she heard it. Guier was startled. Her face was covered with bruises, and she was indeed seriously injured.

Seeing the expression on Gui'er's face, Miss Rong smiled bitterly and said, "It's very ugly, isn't it?"

Gui'er quickly said, "No, no, it's just that I haven't seen Sister Rong for a few days, and she has suffered such a great disaster. Gui'er is also very sad."

Miss Rong smiled and said, "I heard you were missing for a day too."

Gui Er said a little embarrassedly, "Yes, there was a riot that day and I was separated from the crowd. Fortunately, I was rescued by a passerby."

"You're so lucky. When the young marshal found out you were missing that day, he was so worried he got off the bus halfway and walked back to the dance hall to find you."

It turned out that Miss Rong was kidnapped after the young marshal left. Gui Er felt very uncomfortable after hearing this. She didn't know what to say and could only say apologetically: "I'm sorry, if it wasn't for me...

"No, no, sister, you misunderstood me. I know you are very important to the young marshal. Can you help me? After the musical that day, the young marshal was going to come to my house to discuss the engagement with my parents. Now that something like this has happened, there will definitely be changes. Can you help me tell the young marshal that as long as he doesn't mind, after I marry him, he can have any concubines he wants."

Gui'er didn't expect Miss Rong to like Sha Yanxiao so much. She said to Miss Rong, "Sister Rong, I think if Brother Yanxiao likes you, he won't mind these things. Look, he even brought me to see you now, and he specifically asked me to comfort you more."

Miss Rong was surprised to hear this and said happily, "Really? He really doesn't mind?"

Gui'er was actually not quite sure. Even in modern times, it was hard to say for sure, let alone in this era?

Miss Rong held Gui'er's hand and said, "Then please tell the young marshal that if I can marry him, my personal maid Jin Ling will definitely be promised to him as a concubine."

Gui'er didn't know what to say for a moment, so she just nodded.
