I Am Born With A Sliver Spoon

“What did you say? She’s missing?” Yun Qing raged.

“Forgive me, Master! I remember hearing noises from Miss Fang’s room when she was still there, but I thought nothing of it. Next thing I knew, Xiao Hong was unconscious when I checked on her, and Miss Fang was gone!” Xiao Hong was the servant that Yun Qing had instructed to look after Fang Jiannan, and she was indeed unconscious when Yun Qing went to the room, with Fang Jiannan nowhere to be seen.

Yun Qing closed her eyes for a moment, and calmed herself enough to sense her surroundings. When she opened her eyes again, she barked, “She must have been rescued recently, so they can’t have gone far. Go after them in every direction possible!”

All her subordinates trembled as they heard her command and they immediately followed her orders.

Meanwhile, Fang Jiannan wriggled out of a middle-aged man’s grip by the shore of a big river, then asked warily, “Let me go! W-Who are you?” The man had a strange face and just over 30 minutes ago, he’d suddenly appeared in her room, knocked Xiao Hong out cold and sprinted away, taking her along with him.

He was going so fast to the point that Fang Jiannan felt like she was flying. Save for Chen Hao and Yun Qing, she’d never seen anyone like this and that scared her, especially now that he’d brought her to a big river surrounded by tall trees.

“Who am I? I’m the one who saved you!” The man smiled.

“Do you know Chen Hao? Did he send you to rescue me?” Fang Jiannan honestly couldn’t think of anyone who’d know such an expert except for Chen Hao.

“You can say that, but I would have rescued you even if he didn’t tell me to!” The man smiled bitterly. He was carrying a strange big bag on his slightly humpbacked body, and his face was scarred as if he’d been burned. It was a scary sight, but Fang Jiannan was ecstatic when she heard what he said.

“Does that mean you know Chen Hao? Where is he right now? Why didn’t he come for me himself?” Fang Jiannan asked hastily.

didn’t want much, and Chen Hao caring about her was more than enough to satisfy her. “Wait a minute, mister. You said you’d save me even if Chen Hao didn’t ask you to!” she exclaimed. For some reason, even during the brief conversation with this man, Fang Jiannan realized that he wasn’t scary. In fact, his gaze was surprisingly gentle when it was directed toward her
