Xu Jing's eyes flickered slightly and she said, "I didn't want to meddle in Doctor Yan's private affairs before. Is there something troubling Doctor Yan? Is there anything I can help with?"
Wei Muqing sighed lightly and said, "I can't casually talk about my master's private matters, and besides, it's something that ordinary people can't help with. My master... can't do much either; we can only leave it to fate..."
Just as they were talking, a commotion suddenly came from outside. Both of them were startled, and in the next moment, the door of Xu Jing's house was knocked on forcefully.
The sound of knocking was unsettling. Xu Jing immediately stood up and went outside, just in time to see Cheng Xiao opening the door.
Standing outside the door were two villagers holding torches. As soon as the door opened, one of them urgently asked, "Have you seen Little Dongzi from Yan Si's house?"
