Li Zhongnan chased out of the city for a while but failed to catch up with Fang Shurong and Li Xiaohu. He then returned to the city to find Li Datou and instructed him to mobilize the entire Wild Wolves Gang to search within the city.
"Uncle, before dawn, Aunt Shurong and my little cousin had already disguised themselves and left the city," Li Datou confirmed. With numerous members of the Wild Wolves Gang, they scattered and easily discovered traces of the mother and son upon asking around in the city.
Li Zhongnan was startled upon hearing this, "They truly left Pingyang City?" He was surprised by Fang Shurong's departure, as he had thought she had settled in Pingyang City to wait for him.
Could it be otherwise? Could she have really lost her memory, and feeling overwhelmed by his recent persistence, had no choice but to leave the place she had lived for years?
