Chapter 419

"Natsuki-chan, have you seen Natsuki-chan?" Lingyun asked Su Wanyue while looking at the empty black tea cabinet.

"Sister Natsuki? She seems to have gone out with Astarotte, saying that the black tea at home had run out and she wanted to go buy some," Su Wanyue said.

"Going out to buy black tea? Natsuki-chan hasn't been here very long; does she know where to buy high-quality black tea?" Lingyun raised an eyebrow.

"Jingjing gave her an address. That place has the most authentic black tea in the world, so I suppose Sister Natsuki wanted to try the black tea of this world!" Su Wanyue said with a smile.

"Hmm? That's not right. Why would Natsuki-chan send me a message at this time? Could something have happened?" A purple light suddenly flashed beside Lingyun, and upon seeing it, his brow furrowed sharply.

"Did Natsuki-chan run into some trouble?" Su Wanyue asked with some confusion. "But in the capital, what could possibly cause Natsuki-chan any trouble?"

"Regardless, I'll go over and take a look!" Lingyun said to Su Wanyue, then vanished on the spot.

In a coffee shop, Nangong Natsuki frowned as she looked at the girl beside her. Rather than a girl, she was more of a young child. The girl looked to be about five or six years old, with large, watery eyes that made her look extremely cute. The girl held Nangong Natsuki's hand tightly, a sweet smile on her face. Beside Nangong Natsuki, Astarotte remained in her maid outfit, quietly watching the little girl.

Nangong Natsuki looked at the young child beside her, her eyes full of helplessness. She had first encountered this child at a busy street corner; the girl seemed to have been separated from her family and was looking blankly at the bustling street.

Seeing the little girl's lost expression and noticing some people lurking in the shadows, Nangong Natsuki decided after a moment of thought to take the girl with her. Strangely enough, the moment the little girl met Nangong Natsuki, she clung to her, showing no signs of shyness and instead appearing extremely close to her.

However, it wasn't good to keep the little girl with her indefinitely; after all, she had been lost for quite some time, and her family must be very worried. But Nangong Natsuki didn't know much about the capital and didn't know which family the girl belonged to, so she had no choice but to ask Lingyun for help.

Not long after, Lingyun appeared outside the coffee shop. After scanning the shop, he spotted Nangong Natsuki and saw the little girl beside her.

"Natsuki-chan, who is this little girl?" Lingyun asked as he walked up to Nangong Natsuki.

"I don't know either. I ran into her on the street; she seems to be lost, but I'm not very familiar with this city, so I had to call you," Nangong Natsuki said.

"Little sister, what is your name?" Lingyun leaned down and asked the little girl.

"Big brother, my name is Nangong Yue." The little girl looked at Lingyun, a big smile on her face, and answered in a clear voice.

"Nangong Yue?" Lingyun raised an eyebrow, his right hand moving behind his back to begin calculating rapidly.

"Do you know where your home is?" Lingyun asked while calculating the girl's background. Judging by her clothes, she shouldn't be from an ordinary family, which would narrow down the search significantly.

"I don't know. I came out with my big brother, but the crowd pushed us apart and I got lost," Nangong Yue said.

"The surname is Nangong?" Lingyun's calculation paused abruptly, a flash of confusion in his eyes. "There aren't many families with the surname Nangong in the capital, so the scope can be narrowed down further."

Before long, he stopped calculating and took out his phone to call Chen Jing: "Jingjing, I wanted to ask, is there a girl named Nangong Yue in the Nangong family you mentioned to me a few days ago?"

"Nangong Yue? Lingyun, how did you know?" Chen Jing's voice sounded surprised. "Nangong Yue is the youngest girl in the Nangong family and the treasure of everyone's heart, but she just went missing, and the whole family is looking for her right now."

"That's quite a coincidence. Not long ago, Natsuki-chan ran into a little girl on the street, and she should be the person you're looking for!" Lingyun said.

"Sister Natsuki?" Chen Jing raised an eyebrow. "Okay, I'll have the Nangong family go over and check!"

"Well, have you found the little one's family?" Nangong Natsuki asked.

"I don't know for sure yet, but they are coming to check. If it is her, that would be for the best!" Lingyun said.

The two didn't wait long before a middle-aged man and a teenager of about seventeen or eighteen hurried toward them.

"Dad, brother!" Seeing them, Nangong Yue's eyes lit up, and she stood up and waved at them.

"Yue'er, you scared me to death!" The teenager rushed to Nangong Yue's side and scooped her up in his arms.

The middle-aged man was also very fast, appearing beside Nangong Yue in what seemed like an instant.

"An expert!" Lingyun looked at the man, reaching this conclusion. Just from that movement, he could tell the man was only one step away from the Golden Core stage.

However, the man's attention wasn't entirely on Nangong Yue. He looked at the quietly sitting Nangong Natsuki, a look of disbelief flashing in his eyes: "Similar, it's just too similar!"

Sensing the man's gaze, Nangong Natsuki frowned slightly and let out a soft huff. The middle-aged man immediately felt a powerful force suppressing him, causing his breath to hitch, and he looked at Nangong Natsuki with newfound gravity.

"Hello, my name is Nangong Yi," the middle-aged man said. "Miss, may I ask what your name is?"

"I know! Big sister's name is Nangong Natsuki!" Before Nangong Natsuki could say anything, Nangong Yue, who was being held by Nangong Chen, spoke up.

"Nangong Natsuki..." Nangong Yi murmured, wondering what he was thinking.

"What, is there a problem with my name?" Nangong Natsuki stared at Nangong Yi, a dangerous glint flashing in her narrowed eyes.

"No, not at all. I was just reminded of a relative from a long time ago," Nangong Yi shook his head and said. "Regardless, I am very grateful to this young lady for helping me find my daughter."

"It's nothing worth mentioning. Yue'er is a very cute girl; I think anyone who saw her would have helped," Nangong Natsuki waved her hand and said. "Since Yue'er has been reunited with her family, I should be going."

After saying this, Nangong Natsuki signaled to Astarotte, who was standing nearby, and left the place with Lingyun.

"Dad, you seem very concerned about that girl!" Nangong Chen leaned over to Nangong Yi and said.

"Xiao Chen, do you remember me telling you that you once had an aunt?" Nangong Yi said, watching Nangong Natsuki's retreating figure.

"Yes, I remember her name was Nangong Yue, but she went missing many years ago!" Nangong Chen said. "But what does that have to do with that girl?"

"That girl looks exactly like your aunt did when she was young!" Nangong Yi said. "We must go back immediately. On one hand, we need to tell your grandfather that Yue'er has been found, and on the other, we need to tell him about this girl named Nangong Natsuki!"

"Dad, do you think I'll be able to see that big sister again?" Nangong Yue asked from his arms.

"Don't worry, as long as she is still in the capital, we will definitely be able to meet again!" Nangong Yi said.
