~2 minute read · 511 words

Long ago, he had resolved to wed her, yet countless years had passed him by.

Deep regret swelled within Ye Jinyu's heart.

He longed so much... to reverse time and go back to that airport moment when he brought her home.

After that, she would remain his most treasured forever.

"Ah Yu, don't make it so sad. I'm about to cry."

Shangguan Anning actually felt incredibly fortunate as well.

Soon after, Li Qingcang and Shangguan Ling emerged from the study. Ye Jinyu naturally wanted to trail after Li Qingcang to locate Li Youyou.

"Jin, I'll head out with your father-in-law. You watch over the kids, got it?"

Ye Jinyu felt puzzled and questioned, "Dad, why?"

"There aren't that many whys!"

Why all these endless whys?

Still, Shangguan Ling believed certain matters needed his personal handling.

Both Shangguan Ling and Li Qingcang stood out as exceptional figures among people, with years of experience in politics. They excelled at analyzing situations.

Li Qingcang and Shangguan Ling climbed aboard the helicopter and flew directly to the military zone.

Team members who once accompanied Li Youyou received a warm welcome from Li Qingcang and Shangguan Ling.

They started sifting through overlooked hints for any potential leads.

In the end, Li Qingcang and Shangguan Ling entered Tang Xiaoxiao's room.

The army-green blanket formed a perfect square tofu block.

Its corners stood out sharply defined.

Tang Xiaoxiao's belongings sat arranged in perfect order.

Since fellow team members viewed Tang Xiaoxiao and Li Youyou as having perished in duty, nobody disturbed her possessions.

Shangguan Ling and Li Qingcang commenced a thorough check for dubious traces in the compact space.

They targeted Tang Xiaoxiao's room after visiting her mother's place and uncovering details of her past.

Clearly, those claimed sacrifices proved entirely fabricated.

So, where exactly had Tang Xiaoxiao led Li Youyou?

Tang Xiaoxiao's mother revealed she stayed mostly with the team, seldom venturing elsewhere.

Thus, she likely devised her schemes right inside this room.

Teammates noted that besides drills, Tang Xiaoxiao frequented the library.

"I'm heading to the library."

Li Qingcang proceeded to the library, where records of Tang Xiaoxiao's book loans lingered on the computer.

Book by book in sequence.

Li Qingcang wheeled the cart, loading each title from the list onto it.

He rolled the book-laden cart to a seat and examined the volumes diligently.

Though he scanned rapidly, Tang Xiaoxiao's caution left no traces of her in those pages.

Finishing the books, Li Qingcang massaged his temples.

His probe into Tang Xiaoxiao showed her as a fine young woman, tragically derailed by one misguided notion.

As Li Qingcang prepared to shelve the books, one caught his eye, faintly warped.

He parted its pages and hunted intently for hints.

Tang Xiaoxiao couldn't have erased every trace with such precision, he refused to accept.

"Here, here."

Opening the volume, Li Qingcang discovered a tiny map.

A single mark appeared on the map.

Penciled dots so minuscule they escaped notice.
