That night, Si Kong held a banquet to thank Sima Youyue and Third Mo for not being able to find Wu Man.
He thought that Wu Man would attend, but Sikong said that Wu Man was too tired and had a lot of government affairs to deal with, so she didn't come.
That night, they drank more than usual and only left when the sun rose.
Third Mo drank more because many people came to toast him. When the banquet ended, he was already drunk.
Wu Lingyu supported him and brought him to the courtyard where Sima Youyue and the others lived. He randomly found a room and threw him into it.
"How violent." Sima Youyue leaned against the door with her arms crossed in front of her chest. She chuckled when she saw him throw her onto the bed.
"It's good enough that you didn't throw it on the ground." Wu Lingyu didn't like to interact with other people. If he wasn't Youyue's friend and if it wasn't for the fact that she would help him if he didn't do it, he wouldn't have helped him!
Si Yue came out from behind Sima Youyue and looked at the two men in the room. She asked, "Is Third Mo okay?"
"He's fine. He's just drunk. I gave him some pills to sober him up. He'll be fine after a good night's sleep." Sima Youyue said.
"Oh." Si Yue looked at the person on the bed. This was the first time she was worried about someone drunk.
"How are you?" Sima Youyue asked her.
"What?" Si Yue came back to her senses and remembered that she was asking about her current situation. She replied, "Of course I'm fine. I drank your fruit wine, it's not like I'm drunk."
"If you don't have any questions, let's go find Manager Wu Man." Sima Youyue said.
"Alright, I know you're anxious. Let's go to Aunt Man's residence now." Si Yue said, "But, is it really okay to leave Third Mo here?"
"It's alright, I'll let Di Wu and Mu Si take care of it later." Sima Youyue said, "Moreover, this is your house, are you still worried?"
"You're right. Let's go then. "Si Yue smiled and ignored Sima Youyue's teasing.
Wu Man's residence wasn't far from Si residence. they arrived after walking for an hour.
When the guard saw Si Yue, he bowed to her and let them in without needing to report.
Not long after the three of them entered the mansion, they saw a person dressed like a scholar walking towards them. When he saw them, he stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Miss Yue 'er, why have you come?"
"I'm here to look for Auntie Man. Is she around?"
She's resting. But she said if you bring a girl here, you can go find her. She's in her room.
Did he know that she and Sima You Yue would come?
"I got it. I'll go with my little sister. You can go ahead."
Go go go go to Youyue go to your to go go.
Si Yue brought Sima Youyue and Wu Lingyu to Wu Man's courtyard. She had been here countless times and was familiar with the place.
She originally felt that it wasn't good for a man to go to Wu Man's courtyard and wanted to let Wu Lingyu wait outside. But looking at his attitude, he probably didn't want to.
There were two maids guarding Wu Man's courtyard. When they saw them, they said, "Men are not allowed to enter."
"Lingyu, why don't you wait for me outside for a while." Sima Youyue said to Wu Lingyu, "We should be out soon."
"Alright."
Si Yue didn't expect Wu Lingyu to agree so easily. Previously, he followed Sima Youyue like a shadow. He only followed her to the toilet!
"Young Master, please come to the living room for tea." A maid said.
"No need, I'll wait here." Wu Lingyu said.
"He's still following her." Si Yue thought to herself. She knew it, how could he follow her! It was only because he listened to Sima Youyue's words and this was a female's courtyard. If not, he would definitely follow her in.
"Miss Yue 'er, please follow me."
The servant girl led the two of them into the courtyard. The moment Sima You Yue entered, she realised that Wu Man really liked red. The flowers in the courtyard were red, the house was dark red, even the decoration in the room was mainly red.
The maid brought them to the living room in the courtyard and said, "Please wait here, Master will be here soon."
She left after saying that.
Not long after she left, Wu Man walked in. Si Yue and Sima Youyue quickly stood up.
"Aunt Man."
"Steward Wu."
Wu Man sat on the main seat and said, "I've already told you when we were in the forbidden area. You can call me Aunt Man like Yue 'er."
"Yes, Aunt Man." Sima Youyue replied.
"Aunt Man, we're here today to look for you." Si Yue said.
"I expected it." Wu Man sighed, "That day, he told me that he wanted to find the child's mother. I didn't expect that after so many years, I would see his child with my own eyes. "
"You mean … my father?" Sima Youyue asked.
"Yes, your father, Sima Liu Xuan." Wu Man fanned herself from time to time. "When I heard your name, I guessed that you must be looking for your father."
"Then Aunt Man, can you tell me where my father is?" Sima Youyue asked urgently.
"I do know where your father is, but I can't tell you."
"Why?" Sima Youyue didn't understand. She could tell that Wu Man had feelings when she mentioned her father. Why didn't she want her to save her father?
"That place is too dangerous. If I tell you, you'll definitely save him regardless of the danger. If you go there, there's no chance of survival. Even if I tell you, it's useless. "Wu Man said.
"But I'm here to save my father. No matter how dangerous it is, I have to go. I will save my father! "Sima Youyue said resolutely," Aunt Man, please tell me where my father is. "
"I've been to the place where your father is." Wu Man didn't answer her request. Instead, she recalled the past, "I saw him. He used his own way to resist. I said that I would save him, but he wasn't willing. He said that he didn't want to burden me, so he asked me to promise him one thing. "
"Aunt Man, what did you promise him?" Si Yue asked.
"He said that one day, someone will find this place. Maybe it's his wife or his daughter. But no matter who it is, I have to stop you and not let you go near that place. And I can't tell you where he is. "
Sima Youyue was shocked. Her father didn't allow anyone to tell him where he was, that showed how dangerous that place was! Her heart ached when she thought of the life jade that was filled with scars.
Her father didn't allow them to find him because he didn't want them to be in danger. But she couldn't let her father suffer anymore!
"Father …" Her heart ached when she thought of her father. Seeing that Wu Man didn't intend to tell her where her father was, she stood up and walked to Wu Man. She stretched out her hand in front of her …
