The man at the door left soon after, and unexpectedly, in the opposite direction of her.
"Alas~"
"What a pity, if only Doctor Mu could walk this way, then I could get a closer look at him..."
She was unaware that Mu Jingxuan, always observant, had noticed her movements earlier as he had been lost in thought, which was why he left.
From Xuan Mohan asking him to examine Lan Lexuan's body to his unusual behavior, he knew... that woman had returned.
He truly wanted to rush in without a care, but...
He had promised her by the river that if she returned, he would choose to let go.
No one understood Mu Jingxuan's deeper meaning, but it did not escape Xuan Mohan's sharp eyes.
He knew very well that Mu Jingxuan was placing his hope on divine intervention; by seemingly letting go, he actually loved Lan Qianqian even more.
Therefore, seeing this, Xuan Mohan's heart became even more complicated. On one hand, Mu Jingxuan had returned, and they were still brothers; on the other hand, his brother was still infatuated with his wife, which made him very annoyed.
Could things ever go back to the way they were? It was highly unlikely, because every time Xuan Mohan saw Mu Jingxuan, he was filled with friendly "hostility," especially when his wife was by his side...
The tall, blue figure gradually walked away, his back appearing lonely and his posture solitary, exuding an indescribable sense of loneliness and desolation.
...
An hour passed. In a simple yet warm bedroom, Jian You slowly opened her eyes after fluttering her long eyelashes.
Looking at the unfamiliar ceiling above, she was momentarily stunned. Soon, she realized where she was.
Mister and Xuan Mohan had both told her to stay here temporarily and that she didn't need to look after the children, only to focus on recovering her health.
In truth... she had been well for a long time...
She was quite satisfied with this body; it was suitable for "fighting" and could recover quickly.
Stretching her arms lazily, Jian You sat up from the bed. She glanced around. While it was warm, she could still discern Xuan Mohan's style.
The master bedroom here seemed larger than the one in the suburbs, yet occupied a smaller footprint.
However, she didn't mind these details, as what she liked seemed to be present...
As if to prove Xuan Mohan's thoughtfulness, Jian You opened Xuan Mohan's spacious walk-in closet and indeed saw that amidst the dark tones, many vibrant colors were interspersed.
No wonder the man had said to find anything she wanted from their room...
She only took a casual glance. Fashionable and beautiful clothes, bags, shoes, and accessories were all inside, so dazzling that she suspected Xuan Mohan had moved a shopping mall into the house.
She looked again at the empty room and realized she missed Xuan Mohan a little. Without him by her side, it had suddenly become much quieter, and she wasn't used to it.
After some thought, Jian You walked out, deciding to wander around to distract herself. If Xuan Mohan knew she missed him the moment he left, she could immediately imagine his teasing gaze.
No, she couldn't think about it. If she thought about it again, she would be too embarrassed. She couldn't be too infatuated with men...
As Jian You was lost in thought on the stairs, Aunt Wang in the living room downstairs was so excited she almost dropped what she was holding.
She finally saw the mistress of the house!!!
The young master's beloved!
Although her appearance was ordinary, her demeanor was lazy and refined, and the whole person exuded elegance and grace. One could tell at a glance that she was well-bred and definitely presentable.
She was truly a perfect match for the young master!
Just as her eyes lit up, she suddenly noticed that their young madam was actually distracted!
Frightened, Aunt Wang quickly rushed over, but she dared not make a sound, fearing she might startle Jian You and cause her to fall. "Deng deng deng," she hurried to Jian You's side and, holding her arm, said:
"Young madam, you shouldn't think about other things when walking on the stairs; it's too dangerous. Are you hungry? I made something for you to eat. No, you must be hungry after sleeping. I'll go get it now..."
With that, Aunt Wang "deng deng deng" scurried back to the kitchen and brought out a large tray of pastries and fruits.
She hadn't forgotten the young master's instructions to gain five pounds in two days...
Jian You felt as if she couldn't catch her breath. She had just escaped Xuan Mohan's clutches, and now they were treating her like a pig to be fattened?
"I don't..." hungry.
"Young madam, please try some. This old woman has been preparing it for a long time."
Some of it was prepared when the young master said he was coming over, like desserts, which she made fresh because the young master didn't like them. As for how to gain five pounds in two days, she could only suggest small, frequent meals, adding nutrition to each one.
However, Aunt Wang couldn't guarantee she would gain five pounds. How could someone gain several pounds in two days? Was the young madam someone who gained weight just by drinking cold water?
But she would definitely not neglect feeding her.
Jian You stared silently at the piles of "snacks" in front of her. After looking for a while, she quietly picked up a piece of fruit from the fruit platter and ate it slowly and deliberately.
They probably didn't know... she had already been fed a lot of food by Mister and Madam at noon, like nourishing soups and high-protein foods. She now got a headache just seeing food.
Sigh, being a young madam in a wealthy family was truly not easy. Did they eat such refined meals every day?
Just as she finished a small piece of fruit, a glass of freshly squeezed mixed fruit juice was handed to her. The colors were beautifully matched, but her... stomach was not empty...
Just as Jian You was about to refuse, a doorbell rang outside the door.
"..." Who was arriving at such a perfect time.
"Young madam, it's freshly squeezed. Drink it while it's fresh. Let's not mind who is at the door." As long as it wasn't the young master, it didn't matter.
Uh...
This isn't good, is it?
However, when Jian You saw the intense anticipation in Aunt Wang's eyes, she immediately understood what she meant. So... she still had to keep eating, right?
Jian You glanced at the extra-large cup of fruit in Aunt Wang's hand. Besides a headache, she now wanted to run away. She would have to call Xuan Mohan later and ask him to control this.
However... Xuan Mohan would only indulge Aunt Wang's behavior...
Jian You slowly took the cup from Aunt Wang's hand and then stared at Aunt Wang with wide eyes, not saying a word.
The latter stood there contentedly for a moment before seemingly remembering something and quickly walking to the door.
Really, disturbing her harmonious interaction with the young madam...
"Click~"
Alright, it was Young Master Haoran. Then she still couldn't stop them. But who was this person next to him... his girlfriend?
Aunt Wang felt very gratified. The young master and his good friends had both found good partners; their lives could be considered complete.
"Young Master Lu, please come in quickly; it's cold outside."
Lu Haoran nodded, his expression slightly relieved. He reached out his hand to hold the young woman's as they walked in, but she... ran ahead first.
Could she still remember her future husband...
