However, she never felt any ill intent from them so she had ignored it. It wasn't like she had never been followed or watched closely before. 

"What's wrong?" Rong Jian had noticed the crease in her brows and the slowing down of her steps. The shop attendant, too, stopped and turned to look back at her.

"There's an uninvited guest wondering around right outside." She answered plainly. They weren't at the Wangfu and it was the Store of Rong Jian's brother so there was no need to hide it. Besides, the guard and shop attendant will see when they go outside to check the captured person.

"I'll go catch them." Rong Jian's expression darkened and made ready to rush out. Shen Tianyu put a handon his arm to stop him and shook her head.

"No need. I had Xue Lang go capture them. If they can be seen by Xue Lang, I reckon their spiritual powers and martial arts aren't that high." She turned to the shop attendant and handed over the gloves she had picked but had yet to pay for. "Keep these for me for now. I'll pay for them once we figure this little hiccup out. Though, if what you said was true, I doubt I will need a handwarmer as long as I have this pair of gloves." 

"This. There's no need for this. Zhu Wangye is Qiao Wangye's younger brother, how could we little servants presume to distrust one of his guests? And his Wangfei at that. This humble one really isn't..." He started to shake his hand and held out his hands to block the gloves.

"It's fine. Just see it as keeping it for us for the time being." She turned to Rong Jian who had stilled and was watching their exchange. "You say something too. He's scared stiff of you."

"Do as she says." He obliged his wife and looked at the shop attendant, his eyes cold and indifferent, the complete opposite of how they were when he was looking at his fiancee. His gaze just seemed to scare the shop attendant further but he deemed to accept the gloves for safekeeping so Shen Tianyu didn't mind that much. At least the poor man didn't faint.

Now that their unique, one-of-a-kind, chosen purchase was in good ahnds, they quickly strode outside. When they were about to step outside, Shen Tianyu recieved another message from Xue Lang.

"Mistress, I've captured them but... it seems to be a young girl with low spiritual power." This caused Shen Tianyu to quirk her eyebrows but continued her way. She had known someone was clearly followinng her so she knew that person's spiritual power wasn't that high.

Shen Tianyu squatted down in front of the girl, waving th guard to put his sword away and stand to the side. Rong Jian stood behind her to guard her in case another helper showed up. After all, there was the spiritual beast holdinig the woman down and his wifey wasn't some weakling either. Since it was basically confirmed that her spiritual pwoer wasn't high, even if the woman exploded her core, she wouldn't be able to harm his wifey. 

"Girl, you've finally been captured so can you tell me what you have been following me for?" She spoke in a warm tone that wasn't too cold nor too kind. 

"..." The girl didn't speak and merely continued to look at her.

"...This girl isn't deaf or mute right?" Shen Tianyu looked at the white wolf on top of her.

"I didn't injure her, I'm sure of it. I even made sure she didn't hit her head too hard when she went down." Xue Lang whined and looked the girl over.

"... I'm looking for someone." The girl finally spoke as the pair of woman and wolf were checking her for any external injuries. "...Are you the one I'm looking for?"

"Huh? How would I know if you're looking for someone? I've never met you before in my life so I'm pretty sure I'm not the one you're looking for?" There were people that looked for other people without meeting them in real life so the last statement came out as a question instead. 

"You should be, I've watched for days now and you act just like she does!" The girl suddenly slapped the ground with her hands and shouted, which startled Shen Tianyu a bit. Rong Jian put his hands on her shoulders to steady her and reassure her. She patted his hands to tell him she was fine.

"Then, what's that person's name?" Shen Tianyu figured she might as well play along and find out which family's miss this was so she can send her back.

"... Lingling." The girl muttered with a little pout on her lips.

"..." Shen Tianyu's brain blanked out, all her thoughts flying out the window of her head. This was the nickname she had in her last life but she had a different name in this life so this "Lingling" definitely couldn't be her but her intuition told her something was amiss.

Only when she felt someone squeeze her shoulders did her soul come back to her body. She looked at the place of the pressure and realized Rong Jian was trying to bring her back.She took a deep breath and turned back to the girl on the ground looking up at her with expectant eyes.

"Um... May I know the full name of this 'Lingling' person?" She asked tentatively. For some unknown reason, her heart was speeding up.
