"Chutang!"
Princess Qingyang gripped the reins, her expression fraught with worry.
They were already deep within the woods, where the dense trees made it difficult to navigate on horseback.
Steeling herself, she simply leaped off her horse.
A sudden noise from nearby made her turn her head. She saw Xu Rongqing approaching.
She immediately asked, "Mr. Xu, have you seen Chutang?"
Xu Rongqing shook his head, his expression grim.
Princess Qingyang gritted her teeth. "I'm sure she came this way just a moment ago. How could she vanish in the blink of an eye?"
The forest was vast, so they had decided to split up to expand their search area.
But they hadn't strayed too far from one another and were still within shouting distance.
However, after searching for a while, Princess Qingyang suddenly realized she had lost track of Ye Chutang.
With no sign of her friend, she was naturally overcome with anxiety.
Suddenly, Xu Rongqing's expression turned sharp. "Isn't that her horse?"
