Chapter 144 Wounded (1)_1
Mo Yan’s heart was ablaze with urgency, and though the carriage was already moving fast, she felt it was excruciatingly slow and kept urging the coachman to go faster.
Finally arriving at Liu Yang Village, Mo Yan couldn’t wait any longer and rushed out of the carriage, heading straight for the construction site.
Mo Qingze was waiting at the construction site for Mo Yan and hastened to greet her as he saw her approaching, "Yanyan, you’re finally here. Yuhua Mountain is so vast, and without a direction, we don’t even know where to start looking! The last time you took Little Flower into Yuhua Mountain, where do you think it might go?"
"Dad, I can’t be sure of that either, but are you certain it went into the mountains yesterday?"
Seeing her father more anxious than herself, Mo Yan suppressed her own anxiety and asked. Even though she often complained about that thing being gluttonous and dumb, it was just her saying things. Deep down, she had already regarded it as an important little companion, and now that Little Flower had disappeared, she was really worried something might happen to it.
"It did go into the mountain! It didn’t return yesterday evening, so Dad went to look for it, and someone saw it on the mountain. It’s just that Dad and the villagers didn’t find it when we searched the mountain," Mo Qingze said, his heart full of urgency.
Mo Yan thought for a moment then asked, "Has Little Flower been acting strangely these past few days?" She knew it was playful, but it wouldn’t forget to return home after playing; she just feared the worst.
Mo Qingze thought carefully and finally shook his head, "The same as usual, going out in the morning and coming back in the evening. Recently, it hasn’t brought back any wild prey, and its appetite has been good, eating the chicken you had sent over, and it could even eat another small bowl of soup and rice."
Mo Yan frowned. She knew how picky Little Flower was about its food; it wouldn’t even glance at the meals cooked at home, but now it was willing to eat, which was quite abnormal.
"Dad, I’m going to search the mountain now; I’ll definitely return before nightfall," Mo Yan said before walking towards the mountain.
