Chapter 706: Young Master, Something’s Wrong (5)_1
Although the banquet at Dingxiang Academy was arranged separately, it was evidently done with great care; the various dishes were very exquisite, including two dishes that the patriarch had specially commanded to be sent over.
Xun Hui’s face broke into a smile, clearly feeling comfortable.
However, halfway through the meal, Fang Tianze, who had promised to come over after a while, still hadn’t shown up. Yang Ruxin didn’t know why, but she felt a bit uneasy. She immediately called over Liuyun, "Go see what’s keeping your young master. Didn’t he say he would come over? Why isn’t he here yet?"
Liuyun, hearing this, hurriedly nodded, instructed the two servant girls waiting on them, and then ran off.
It was only a couple of minutes after she had dashed out when suddenly, a commotion of footsteps could be heard. Then, Liu Guang appeared, drenched in sweat. In his haste, he tripped upon entering the door and fell flat on the ground, but he paid no mind to the pain. Prostrating himself on the floor, he blurted out, "Lady Xinxin, hurry, something terrible has happened to our young master..."
Right behind him followed a bewildered Liuyun, who had obviously seen Liu Guang run past and hurried in after him.
Everyone else’s faces turned pale.
Yang Ruxin was startled and rushed over to help Liu Guang up, glancing at Liuyun, "You stay here and take care of my brothers and sisters. I’ll go see what happened." There was no time for detailed questions, and she could only ask while on the move.
"Big sister, I’ll come with you," Sanni hurried over to say.
