Tonger and Bai Xue chattered for a few moments before they went out, and Jiang Li climbed onto the bed, blew out the candle, but couldn't fall asleep. She kept thinking about Jiang Youyao's matter, and it all seemed so strange.
How could such a grown person just disappear without a reason? If she were on the streets, she would surely be easily spotted, and no official family would dare to hide her. Jiang Yuanbai even had people check the tea houses and brothels to see if she had been captured by human traffickers, but to no avail. There was no news of Jiang Youyao at the city gate checkpoints. Could it be... she was being hidden by someone?
Lost in thought, Jiang Li couldn't come up with any conclusion. She turned over and closed her eyes. Tomorrow's issues would be dealt with tomorrow; let Jiang Yuanbai report to the officials and have a search conducted again. If they couldn't find her... If she couldn't be found, she would ask Zhao Ke.
Perhaps he would know.
