The Sweet Life of Superstar and His Goddess Wife-Chapter 571: Not a Big Deal (Add One More - )

Actually, for Mu Qiuniang, finding someone isn’t really a big deal.

By the time she sent Murong and Li Qiqi out, she already knew the result.

But she needed to give the two disciples some training opportunities. The senior disciple, Zhan Jingshu, could already handle things independently, while Murong and Li Qiqi were still somewhat inexperienced.

As for her, she didn’t have much time to waste since, as her cultivation progressed, the time for ascension was drawing near.

She needed all of them to become independent.

Basically, everyone around her was kept busy with various excuses from her, giving them plenty of training opportunities. Even those "servant" disciples sent by Sect Leader Gong Xihe from Hidden Immortal Sect couldn’t escape.

Her recent unusual actions also alerted Gong Xihe and others from Hidden Immortal Sect, prompting them to start making backup plans. One plan was for handling the aftermath if she succeeded in her ascension; the other was for dealing with the difficulties and troubles they might face if she failed to ascend.

The new year was also approaching fast.

Jiang Nuo had been busy with filming matters outside these past few days. She didn’t know what new movie he was preparing, as he came and went mysteriously every day, claiming he had a surprise for her.

After hearing this, Mu Qiuniang stopped inquiring but had Mu Mingyu keep an eye on his safety.

Meanwhile, Murong and Li Qiqi, after a few days of investigation, finally discovered some clues at the Lei Family—it’s quite possible that Mu Mingzhi’s wife, Lei Piaopiao, was indeed there.

What’s strange is that ever since she was brought back a few years ago, she seemed to have vanished without a trace. There was no news of her from the Lei Family.

"No way, right? How can such a living person disappear with no one knowing?" Murong muttered in disbelief.

Across from him, Li Qiqi held her bowl, eating.

"Hey! Were you reincarnated as the Pigsy? Eating so much? My third aunt might be at the Lei Family, and after so many years with no news, aren’t you anxious?"

"What’s there to be anxious about? It’s been years with no news, so why hurry these couple of days? Don’t worry; I’ve already bribed a servant from the Lei Family to help me find out the list of girls who got married in the Lei Family in the past 20 years and those who haven’t married yet." 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"Why are you inquiring about that?"

"You’re stupid; your third aunt is a daughter of the Lei Family. If she isn’t married off, where could she be?" Li Qiqi put down her chopsticks and said, "She could have been hidden away. So where could she be hidden? The Lei Family must have places to hide people, like secret chambers or something. That’s how movies portray it. I’m not good at finding secret chambers; we can ask our senior brother for help."

"But why would they want to hide my third aunt?"

"Maybe your third aunt knows something she shouldn’t." Li Qiqi shrugged, "Isn’t that how it goes on TV? Many big families have things they don’t want others to know."

"Does your Leng Family have secrets too?"

Li Qiqi rolled her eyes: "Of course, but I won’t tell you."

The servant Li Qiqi found didn’t know much. The information he could find was basically known to everyone.

Even so, Li Qiqi and Murong confirmed one thing—the story told by Clan Leader Lei, that Lei Piaopiao married a Loose Immortal a few years ago and never returned after going out to train with him, is "true."

A few years ago, there indeed was a Lei Family girl named "Lei Piaopiao" who got married.

"It seems this matter is true, at least on the surface. So, Qiqi, do you think she really got married or not?"

"Probably not, right? Think about it. Your third uncle said they had a great relationship, and he searched for her for so many years. She even had two kids with your third uncle. Do you think she would remarry?"

"If she was forced to... she couldn’t have been unable to contact my third uncle all these years."

"We only know that someone named ’Lei Piaopiao’ got married. How can we be sure she is your third aunt?"

"You’re right, so it’s still possible that she is at the Lei Family. Let’s contact our senior brother."

"Yeah, I think so too."

...

A few days passed, and there was no news from Murong and the others, making Mu Mingzhi very anxious.

Did they find Piaopiao or not?

Both are just kids; can they really be relied upon?

"Dad, why are you pacing back and forth?" Mu Ying looked up and noticed her dad’s constant pacing, so she asked.

"I’m worried about your mom. It’s been so long, and they haven’t had any news. Did something happen?"

Mu Feng just came down the stairs and, hearing his dad say this, felt a bit helpless: "Dad, you’ve been searching for years; why worry about these few days?"

"Ah Feng, since you’re here, could you help your dad find out about your mom?"

"Dad, if there’s any news, Cousin Rong will notify us. Since they haven’t, they’re still searching. Don’t worry; since Granny already predicted it, Mom will be fine."

"Sigh... I know, but I just don’t feel right. Doing nothing and waiting here to welcome your mom..."

"Mom, I understand your feelings. I want to find Mom quickly too, but it takes time." Mu Feng comforted his dad, guiding him to the sofa while massaging his shoulders, "Dad, relax. Believe me, our mom will come back soon. Your job is to get your body in good shape and look handsome when Mom comes back, so you can still be the handsome guy she met..."

All these years, Mu Mingzhi was alone outside looking for her, often losing sleep, and his health had taken a toll. He needed to recover well, or it could affect his lifespan.

So, whether it’s Mu Ying or Mu Feng, while worrying about their mom’s situation, they were quite concerned about their dad’s health too.

Mu Mingzhi laughed, "I’ve been married to your mom for over twenty years, you guys are all grown up, and I’m old, no longer the young man from 20 years ago..."

"Dad, that’s not what they say. Men age like fine wine at forty; you’re just too thin now, you need to gain some weight, so you can impress us then." Mu Ying added.

"Exactly, Dad, you see, even Brother said that. Plus, if you don’t take care of your health, how will you look after grandkids later?"

Mu Mingzhi’s eyes lit up: "Ah Feng, does Luna have a baby?"

Mu Feng was immediately amused and a bit exasperated: "Dad, I’m not even at the legal marriage age yet, so if anyone’s having kids, it’s got to be Brother first."

Mu Ying chimed in: "Ah Feng, I don’t even have a girlfriend yet, so don’t drag me into this."

Mu Mingzhi said, "Either way is fine, just let me have a grandchild soon."

"Dad, you picked this up from Aunt and Aunt’s sister, didn’t you? Cousin Sis and Cousin Brother only just got married, isn’t it a bit too soon to be wanting a grandchild?"
