Not the least bit surprised, Di Xicheng instructed the secret guards, "Deal with those people. Do it cleanly. Don’t let anyone catch you red-handed."
"Yes."
The secret guards were used to it and went out to do their work.
Di Xicheng’s eyes narrowed as he got up for a breather.
Just as he opened the door, he bumped into Old Madam Xie, who happened to come out at that moment.
Old Madam Xie’s eyes lit up when she saw him. She smiled and strode over to greet him. "Young Master Di, I finally bumped into you. I have something to talk to you about."
Di Xicheng did not want to see her, but since they bumped into each other, he had to give her face. "Matriarch wants to talk to me?"
Old Madam Xie could tell he was being perfunctory. She smiled and suppressed her discomfort. "I’ve found him." fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Di Xicheng did not expect this. He smiled in disbelief. "Oh? Matriarch, you’re not mistaken, right? So many people have been searching these few days, but we can’t find him. You’ve been staying in the hotel all this time, but you actually found him."
Old Madam Xie told him how she found the person. Then, she said, "They’re hiding in a house in the town. The building is too dilapidated, with many miscellaneous people living there. If we go straight to catch them, we might alert them and let them run away."
She was slightly smug. "So I thought of a way to send them a message, saying that his parents have arranged to meet him in the small forest. The child must miss his parents. We just have to wait for them to get there before sweeping in."
Di Xicheng looked at the old lady’s fierce and mean expression. He thought of something, and his eyes filled with mockery. The corners of his lips curled up slightly. "As expected of someone from the independent continent."
Old Madam Xie did not catch the mockery in his words and thought that Di Xicheng was praising her. Smiling, she tidied her head scarf slightly before saying, "If we eradicate the last hidden time bomb this time, I hope Young Master Di can put in a few good words for the Empress."
"Of course."
