Chapter 155 Going to the Inn to Find Someone
Chu Xiaohuan thought something had happened to Li Mo'er, but in fact, Chu Xiaohuan's exclamation just now made Li Mo'er think that something had happened to him.
After Chu Xiaohuan came down from upstairs, Li Mo'er stared at him intently. Seeing that he seemed normal, she felt relieved.
Chu Xiaohuan frowned as he looked at Li Mo'er, trying to figure out if she was feeling unwell.
Li Mo'er endured her headache, patted the spot next to her, and gestured for Chu Xiaohuan to sit down.
As soon as Chu Xiaohuan sat down, Li Mo'er rested her head on his shoulder and fell asleep.
Chu Xiaohuan's heart skipped a beat. He carefully touched her forehead; it was very hot.
He remained in that position, not daring to move, for fear of disturbing Li Mo'er's rest.

General House
Why hasn't Mo'er come back yet?
Shen Zicen looked at Wang Cheng in front of him. He had asked others this morning, but no one had seen Li Mo'er.
Therefore, he specifically asked someone to notify Wang Cheng when they saw him.
As soon as Wang Cheng stepped into the gate of the general's mansion, Shen Zicen knew that Wang Cheng had arrived, and he quickly got up to go find her.
Wang Cheng was stunned; she didn't know that Li Mei hadn't come back yesterday.
"That employer, he..."
Shen Zicen shook his head. "He didn't come back either."
Wang Cheng clapped his hands, "Oh no!" He guessed they were still inside the Guest House.
Wang Cheng didn't say it aloud, afraid that Shen Zicen would worry.
But judging from her expression, Shen Zicen knew that something must have happened to Li Mo'er.
Wang Cheng turned to leave, and Shen Zicen, supported by someone, quickly followed.
When they arrived at the guesthouse, the door was still locked.
Wang Cheng scratched his head in confusion, "Locked up? Then Li Mei and the boss should be out."
Upon hearing this, Shen Zicen clenched his fists. "Where could Mo'er and General Chu have gone?"
Wang Cheng thought the two of them might have gone to another inn, so he wanted to send Shen Zicen away and go look for them himself.
"Why don't you go back first, Young Master Shen? I'll let you know when I have news."
Just as Shen Zicen was about to shake his head, he heard Wang Cheng continue.
"If Li Mei comes back and sees how haggard you look, she'll be heartbroken."
Shen Zicen thought it made sense. In his current situation, he not only couldn't help find someone, but he might also have to trouble others to take care of him.
Shen Zicen nodded and turned to leave.
Wang Cheng glanced at the lock with unease, then went to the inn next door.
Shen Zicen was about to go back and ask how long it would take when she turned around and saw Wang Cheng enter an inn.
Shen Zicen pursed her lips and quietly followed behind.
"Shopkeeper, were two people here last night or today?"
The shopkeeper hadn't thought about it yet, but shook her head. Someone coming looking for her might be causing trouble, and she didn't want anyone arguing with her.
Last time, a man cheated on his wife, and she stormed off and smashed up her shop.
Now, she only needs to dodge the question and get away with it.
She still values her shop and her life quite a bit.
Wang Cheng lowered his head in disappointment. Just as he turned to leave, he saw Shen Zicen standing at the door, staring intently at him.
Shen Zicen's expression was indescribable; he was waiting for Wang Cheng to come over and explain to him.
Wang Cheng walked over, feeling embarrassed, and was about to explain.
"Manager Wang! What are you doing here? Don't we have any work to do today?"
They were the people who built the welcoming pavilion. When they saw it was Wang Cheng, they went up to ask him a question.
Wang Cheng didn't know how to explain, so he could only take him to open the door for them.
When they opened the door, they saw that some of the roof beams had fallen down.
When Wang Cheng saw this, her heart skipped a beat. She immediately ran to the cellar to see if anyone was down there.
Hearing a faint sound coming from below, Wang Cheng couldn't wait any longer, and she directed people to move the roof beams.
