Gu Ruobai was the first to notice that Su Mingyu was missing.
Not long after Su Mingyu left, Su Yueyue came out supporting her big belly.
Gu Ruobai's heart sank at that moment. Without caring that so many people were watching, he stepped forward and questioned Su Yueyue.
Su Yueyue looked confused and denied ever asking Su Mingyu to go with her. By then, Gu Ruobai was completely sure that Su Mingyu was missing.
So, at the wedding banquet of King Yu and Princess Wu Yurou, all the high - ranking officials and nobles in the capital city saw for the first time the tense look on the usually aloof and unyielding King Ruixian. He was so anxious that he almost fell out of his wheelchair.
Because Gu Ruobai's behavior was so abnormal, no one noticed King Yu, whose face also looked grim.
In a corner where no one could see, King Yu made a hand gesture to his secret guards. Instantly, the grass and trees in the King Yu's Mansion seemed to move without wind. One after another, shadow - like figures disappeared from the mansion at the fastest speed.
As soon as Mu Yi helped Gu Ruobai up, Gu Ruobai roared at him, "Mobilize all forces! We must find the princess!"
This was the first time Mu Yi had seen Gu Ruobai look so ugly and so anxious since he had been following him.
Mu Yi's heart skipped a beat. He always felt that Gu Ruobai was a bit out of control now, actually showing in front of so many people that he had secret guards.
The news that Su Mingyu was missing spread like wildfire in the capital. After the Ye Mansion heard about it, they immediately sent out all their people to look for her. Even the Su Mansion symbolically sent a few people.
It's worth mentioning that the newly - emerged killer organization "Wuwang" in the martial arts world immediately refused all orders and stopped all tasks after the news of Su Mingyu's disappearance was confirmed. The whole organization seemed to disappear overnight, and no one could find their traces.
There were many rumors in the martial arts world that this Wuwang was actually raised by Gu Ruobai to get rid of those who hindered him.
Of course, Su Mingyu didn't know these things. After she was carried out of the arsenal, she fainted. When she woke up, she found herself locked up on a remote mountain.
There was no one within ten miles around, not even a single bird, let alone someone who could bring news.
Although Su Mingyu was in great pain all over her body, she wasn't anxious at all, because she had already got out from under the arsenal. It was just a matter of time before Gu Ruobai found her.
"Awake?" Mei Qing's slightly resentful voice came from the door.
Su Mingyu glanced at her and said indifferently, "It's really a pity that I didn't let you have your way."
"You're just a princess, but there are quite a few people who care about you." Mei Qing's tone was full of displeasure.
Su Mingyu raised her eyebrows and looked at her. "Really? There's an old saying. Those who gain the Way have more help, while those who lose the Way have little. I've done a lot of good deeds in my life, so it's normal for people to care about me."
Looking at Su Mingyu's calm look, Mei Qing suddenly felt a bit confused. "You were so agitated before. Why are you so calm now?"
Su Mingyu didn't even look at Mei Qing and rolled her eyes in her heart. She wasn't stupid. She had angered Mei Qing before just to make her transfer her.
Now that she had left that place and she wasn't a masochist, why should she still anger this person who clearly had hostility towards her?
"Aren't you curious why I brought you here?" Mei Qing looked down at Su Mingyu and asked in a deep voice.
Su Mingyu curled her lips. "Isn't it because you're coveting my man and want to take me away and replace me?"
"You really look down on me." Mei Qing sneered. "If Gu Ruobai knew I had captured you, do you think there's still a possibility between him and me?"
"I didn't expect you're not completely stupid." Su Mingyu glanced at her obliquely. "Capturing me is definitely more harmful than beneficial to the relationship between you and Gu Ruobai, but you still did it."
"So..." Su Mingyu looked at Mei Qing and said with a half - smile. "There must be some greater interests driving you to capture me. I guess this matter should be related to the spy beside Gu Ruobai."
Mei Qing looked at Su Mingyu in surprise, with a full face of astonishment.
Su Mingyu curled the corner of her lips. "Your eyes tell me that I've hit the mark."
Su Mingyu's wound was painfully tugged, but she didn't even blink. She continued, "Do you think Gu Ruobai doesn't know there's a spy beside him? He's been biding his time because he wants to catch them all at once."
Mei Qing looked at her nervously and couldn't believe it. "Mu Yi called me back this time just to investigate this matter, but I can't figure out how you know so much?"
Just by looking at her eyes, Su Mingyu knew that Mei Qing suspected that Gu Ruobai had told her all these things. She was too lazy to explain and just rolled her eyes and ignored her.
Mei Qing couldn't stand Su Mingyu's arrogant look the most. Angrily, she whipped out her whip and lashed it at Su Mingyu.
The crisp sound made Su Mingyu frown in pain, but she didn't make a sound. She just looked at Mei Qing indifferently.
That look made Mei Qing feel extremely irritated. She lifted the whip in her hand, but couldn't bring herself to strike.
Seeing this, Su Mingyu curled her lips mockingly. "What's wrong? Is Miss Mei Qing tired? Do you want someone else to help you beat me?"
"You're really tough - boned!" Mei Qing glared at Su Mingyu angrily, then threw the whip in her hand down angrily and turned around to leave the room.
Watching Mei Qing's angry back, a hint of mockery flashed in Su Mingyu's eyes.
In the 21st century, one of the trainings she had received was anti - interrogation training. That small dark room was the real purgatory on earth.
What Mei Qing was doing now was not even worth mentioning.
So, during the days Su Mingyu stayed here, she was quite carefree.
The only thing she thought about in her mind was who on earth could think of threatening Gu Ruobai by capturing her?
According to Mei Qing, King Yu's people had all been mobilized. If King Yu wasn't just acting, it meant that the spy beside Gu Ruobai wasn't from King Yu's side.
Just as Su Mingyu was thinking, there was a noise at the door.
She looked up and saw Mei Qing again.
Su Mingyu glanced at her and raised her eyebrows. "Miss Mei Qing comes all the way here every day just to look for trouble. You're really persistent."
Mei Qing looked at her coldly, spread out her hand, and showed what was in her hand. "Take this."
Mei Qing's voice was cold, without any warmth.
Su Mingyu didn't waste any words. She directly took the medicine bottle from her hand, shook out a pill, and stuffed it into her mouth.
