Time passed second by second, and not only had Lord Lo An not returned, but Little Princess was also missing. The prince's absence was of little concern to them; they wouldn't be reprimanded. However, the absence of Little Princess was alarming. The prince had instructed them to take good care of her before he left, and now they couldn't even see a trace of her. What would they do if the prince came back and found that they had lost Little Princess?
Luo Bingbing had been gone for quite a while, and the Nursemaid began to feel anxious. She couldn't help but discuss with the two guards what they should do when the prince returned. Just as they were deep in discussion, Lord Lo An came back, bringing with him two exceptionally handsome young men.
It turned out that Lord Lo An had noticed that he and Emperor Dongfang Hao were attracting a lot of attention from the citizens of Silver City while walking down the street, which severely disrupted the pedestrian order. Moreover, in such a public setting, they couldn't reveal Emperor Dongfang Hao's identity, making it difficult for them to converse. Concerned that the crowd might pose a threat to Emperor Dongfang Hao's safety, Lord Lo An invited both the emperor and his Personal Bodyguard to their private booth.
"My lord, this way please." Even before he arrived, Lord Lo An's voice reached the ears of the Nursemaid and the two guards.
They hurried out to greet him and pay their respects. "Prince, you have returned!" Lord Lo An nodded slightly and said, "Why aren't you quickly greeting His Highness?"
Upon hearing his words, the Nursemaid and the two guards rushed forward to bow and greet Emperor Dongfang Hao. In unison, they said, "We pay our respects to His Highness!"
However, His Majesty was utterly indifferent; he didn't even grunt in response or glance at them as he walked past them directly toward a chair by the window.
The bodyguard behind him was slightly more courteous; he nodded at the Nursemaid and the others before following his master.
Once Dongfang Hao was seated, he lightly waved his hand, signaling that the Nursemaid could rise. With permission granted, the Nursemaid felt as if a heavy weight had been lifted from her chest; she quickly stood up and retreated from the room.
Just as they were about to exit, Lord Lo An's voice floated over to them. "Wait a moment, where is Bing Bing? Why don't I see her in the room? Where has she gone?"
Upon hearing Lord Lo An's question, the Nursemaid quickly replied, "In response to your lordship, Little Princess went out shortly after you left and hasn't returned yet."
"What?" Lord Lo An exclaimed in surprise and quickly asked, "Where did she go? Why didn't you follow her?"
"According to the words of the Lord, Little Princess said she would step out for a moment and would be back soon, so..."
Lo An Lord was extremely angry upon hearing this. He pointed at them in frustration and exclaimed, "You! You are truly infuriating! Have you not considered that Little Princess is still so young and has never been to this street before? How can you let her go out alone? Hurry up and find her!"
"Yes, yes, we will go look for her right away," the three responded in unison.
At that moment, Lo An Lord was genuinely anxious and worried; he truly cared for Luo Bingbing. In his haste, he forgot that his Beloved Daughter was no ordinary person, far superior to those common folk. He overlooked the fact that her martial arts skills surpassed anyone in Prince Luo's Residence, including his own.
As Lo An Lord pondered where his Beloved Daughter could have gone, his thoughts began to drift when suddenly His Majesty spoke up. "Luo Qing, what is causing such a commotion?"
Startled by Emperor Dongfang Hao's words, Lo An Lord quickly pulled his wandering thoughts back together. He hurriedly approached the emperor and replied, "It is about the Little Girl. I brought her out with me when I left, but now she is missing and I do not know where she has gone."
Dongfang Hao nodded slightly and asked, "Oh, have you sent someone to look for her?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have just dispatched people to search for her," Lo An Lord answered promptly.
After hearing Lo An Lord's response, Dongfang Hao inquired further, "Which young lady from your household is it?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, it is my youngest daughter."
Just then, the Nursemaid returned. Upon seeing her, Lo An Lord quickly asked, "Have you found Little Princess?"
The Nursemaid slowly shook her head and said, "No, I have searched carefully around here and have not seen any sign of Little Princess."
As soon as the Nursemaid finished speaking, the figures of two guards appeared at the door. Seeing them return, Lo An Lord placed his hopes on them and asked, "Have you found the Little Princess?" Their answer was the same: "We haven't found her."
Hearing their response, Lo An Lord's heart sank to the depths of despair. His mind was in chaos, unsure of what to do next.
Suddenly, His Majesty spoke up, pulling him back to reality. "Lo Qing, if you haven't found her, send more people to search!"
After hearing Emperor Dongfang Hao's words, Lo An Lord finally regained his composure and calmness. He took his leave from His Majesty and hurriedly went to arrange for more people to search for Luo Bingbing.
Soon, only His Majesty and his Personal Bodyguard remained in the private room. However, he did not seem displeased at all; instead, he appeared quite pleased, as if this tranquility was exactly what he desired.
Meanwhile, Luo Bingbing casually reclined on a tree branch, watching the exciting scene below with great interest. Perhaps it was true that one is influenced by their surroundings! The Snow Spirit Fox hidden in her sleeve saw how engrossed she was and decided to come out and watch the show as well.
The group of young beggars below noticed the small beggar lying motionless on the ground and stopped their assault. They arrogantly declared, "Don't let us see you again; otherwise, next time we'll send you to meet Yan Wang and reunite you with your dead brother." With that, they swaggered away.
Seeing that there was no more entertainment to be had, Luo Bingbing stood up to leave. However, before she could rise fully, the little fox quickly jumped down from the tree and ran over to the small beggar on the ground. Acting like a little adult, it circled around him. When it saw that the small beggar remained motionless, it grew bolder, jumping onto his back and tugging at his clothes before climbing onto his head to ruffle his hair. Yet the small beggar showed no reaction at all, completely ignoring it.
Luo Bingbing was about to return to the Reception Building's private room when the little fox continued to play happily beneath the tree, showing no intention of coming back up. Luo Bingbing had no choice but to go down and call it back.
As soon as she landed on the ground, the little fox eagerly leaped onto her shoulder. But just as she lifted her foot to leave, a very weak cry for help reached her ears.
