nTime passed in the quiet room.

nNeither of them spoke. Mo Yuanxiu sat by her side as she slept. Mo Li was lying quietly on the bed as well. She was grabbing his hand, appearing extremely quiet.

nUntil…

nA servant knocked on the door and entered.

n“Eldest Young Master, Miss, it’s time for lunch.” The servant was extremely polite.

nHe nodded. “Xiao Li, get up and eat something.”

n“Mm-hm.” Mo Li sat up and leaned against the headboard.

nThe servants respectfully placed their lunch on the bedside table and then placed the custom-made dining chair in front of Mo Li. Plates of food were placed on the table, and there was a huge amount of them. They were all nutritional condiments specially made for Mo Li.

n“Brother, go down for lunch. You must be hungry too. I’ll be fine by myself,” Mo Li said with a nice smile.

nMo Yuanxiu looked at her and nodded. “Be good and eat.”

n“Yes.”

nMo Yuanxiu left.

nMo Li watched his back until he disappeared.

nShe ate slowly, chewing slowly, and casually asked, “Why were you the one who sent the food up? Where’s Xiao Juan?”

n“Miss, because of Daisy today…” The servant was about to say something when she paused.

nShe was afraid of agitating her and did not dare to say anything else.

nMo Li smiled gently. “It’s alright. Continue.”

nThe servant was trembling.

nMiss was not scary, but she was afraid that her illness would act up because of her. Old Master and Madam would never let her go!

nShe bit her lip and only spoke after a while. “Xiao Juan cried in her room today because Madam slapped her, and she hasn’t come out to help. We know that she’s in a bad mood, so we don’t dare to disturb her.”

n“Xiao Juan is still in her room?” Mo Li squinted.

n“Yes. Does Miss need her?” the servant asked respectfully.

n“Call her up.”

n“Alright,” the servant hurriedly said.

nJust as she was about to leave, Mo Li asked, “Has Lu Manman left?”

n“No, she hasn’t left. She came back once in the morning, and the last time I saw her was when she went upstairs. But I don’t know if she has left later,” the servant said. When she was done, she looked at Mo Li strangely. She seemed a little different today.

nShe somehow felt that something was different. Although she did not look too good, and her body was weak, she spoke gently, and she even smiled. But she just felt that she was different from how she remembered her. Moreover, hadn’t she just fainted from anger because of Young Madam? Why was she asking about her now in such a calm manner?

n“Call Xiao Juan up first,” Mo Li ordered.

n“Yes, miss.”

nWhen the servant left, Mo Li’s expression changed.

nLu Manman was still here?!

nWhat was this shameless b*tch doing here!

nShe had clearly heard her mother’s call just now, asking her to leave the Mo family’s home. What was she trying to do by staying here? Moreover, why was Xiao Juan still here?! She had paid her a sum of money to leave, so why was she still dawdling!

nShe felt a little uneasy.

nShe did not know Lu Manman well, so she had no idea what this woman was capable of. All she knew was that she was highly regarded by the people of Wen City. All the men in Wen City wanted to marry her, including her brother. Moreover, her brother had really given Lu Manman such an enviable wedding.

nShe turned around and sneered.
