She subconsciously got up from the bed and slipped on her slippers. But as she reached the foyer, her steps suddenly halted.

Right, she had made a vow not to seek him out first.

He’d been so horrible to her tonight. She had her temper too – why should she endure such a treatment?

Hmph!

Sleep, sleep!

Even if the sky fell, she would deal with it after she had her sleep.

With that in mind, Gu Li went back to bed.

Though she thought she would suffer from insomnia, she wasn’t sure if it was because she was too tired, but as soon as she hit the bed, she quickly fell asleep. On the other side.

After returning to his study, Mo Shiting had locked the door in a huff, but he had been waiting for her to knock.

He thought to himself, that if she knocked the third time, he would give her a chance to explain.

Who would have known, she knocked only once and never came again.

What a snobbish Gu Li!

He worried about her, cared for her, kept her on his mind all night, even knowing that Yi Bing would protect her, he was still restless.

But look at her, lying, deceiving him, returning home late, not calling, okay

But seeing him angry, doesn’t she know how to coax him with sweet words?

Since when did she become so lawless?

The more Mo Shiting thought about it, the angrier he got.

He couldn’t stay in the study anymore; he sternly returned to his room.

He assumed the girl would be in her room, but there were no personal belongings left, indicating she was keeping her distance from him.

Ha! Excellent!

With a gloomy smile, Mo Shiting thought, if he ever took the initiative to invite her back to his room, he would be a fool!

That night, Gu Li slept extra soundly, while Mo Shiting suffered from a magnificent insomnia.

The next day, unusually, he did not get up early.

At eight in the morning, Gu Li sat at the breakfast table. Simultaneously, Auntie Guan said, “Young Madam, the young master really isn’t well. Usually, he’d be out by now, but he hasn’t even gotten out of bed.”

Auntie Guan knew Gu Li had slept in the guest room last night, so she was even more convinced the two had quarreled and couldn’t help but meddle.

Gu Li paused from chewing her bread, surprised, she looked up: “He hasn’t gotten up.”

No, Young Madam, aren’t you going to go upstairs and check?”

Auntie Guan encouraged her eagerly.

Gu Li’s eyes flashed mysteriously. Thinking of her vow, she forced herself not to show concern: “Perhaps, he wants to sleep in; I won’t disturb him.”

As the words came out, Mo Shiting appeared expressionless. It was unclear if he had heard her words.

Seeing him, Auntie Guan immediately smiled and asked, “Young master, you’re up. I was worried, you were ill. I made some porridge for breakfast. Your ’ appetite hasn’t been good, have some.”

“Okay, thank you.”

Mo Shiting nodded at Auntie Guan, walked over and sat opposite Gu Li, but he didn’t even spare her a glance.

Seeing the situation, Gu Li ignored him too and continued to eat her bread.

Auntie Guan watched the two’s “zero interaction” worriedly.

They weren’t even together for a few days, and they are already having issues.

If this continues, when will the old man cradle his great-grandson?

But what could she, a servant, do to help?

Alas!

Auntie Guan was lost in her thoughts and accidentally splashed some porridge on Gu Li’s hand.??????????????????????? ”

“Ah-”

A sudden burning pain made Gu Li cry out before she realized that she had been scalded by the porridge.

“Ah, I’m sorry, Young Madam. Are you okay?”

Auntie Guan was flustered; she quickly dropped the spoon and fumbled to take Gu Li’s hand.

Her hand was slightly red, but there were no blisters so it wasn’t serious, cold water should soothe it.

Mo Shiting wanted to check her injury initially, but Auntie Guan beat him to it.

Plus, his damn pride kicked in, he just sat still, seemingly unaffected.

“Young Madam, I’m truly sorry, it’s all my fault.”

Auntie Guan blamed herself while helping Gu Li to rinse her hand with cold water.

Gu Li laughed, “It’s okay; you don’t have to worry. Look, I’m okay, right?”

After she finished speaking, she pulled her hand from under the tap and waved it in front of Auntie Guan.

Auntie Guan took a breath. “You’re so gentle, if anything really happened, the young master would surely be heartbroken, wouldn’t you, Young Master?” The conversation turned to Mo Shiting.

Mo Shiting’s face changed slightly, he wanted to nod subconsciously, but in the end, he controlled himself.

He ignored Auntie Guan.

Naturally, he didn’t care for Gu Li.

He hurriedly had a few sips of porridge, didn’t utter a word, and then left.

Only Auntie Guan and Gu Li were left in the dining hall, staring at each other.

Auntie Guan spoke first: “Young Madam, see, isn’t the young master really off? He was completely indifferent to your burn. Did something happen between you two?”

Gu Li helplessly shook her head: “I wish I knew why he suddenly became like

this.”

He was fine yesterday, how could everything change in one night?

“Did you two argue?”

Auntie Guan continued to question.

Gu Li shook her head again, “No. But I returned home late last night, and he

wasn’t very happy.”

“Did you explain the reason for being late to him?”

“He didn’t give me the chance.”

The mention of this made Gu Li annoyed, “Let’s not talk about him. Whether

he’s angry or giving me the cold shoulder, I don’t care.”

Auntie Guan stammered, “This…”

Auntie Guan, I’m full. I’m going out for a bit.”

Gu Li had no appetite to continue breakfast; she got up and left.

Auntie Guan was completely thrown off.

Young Madam was usually so good-tempered, but now she was angry. It was going to be even more difficult.

Not feeling good, Gu Li didn’t tell Yi Bing when she left. She drove herself to the private clinic.

Lin Ranzhu had already woken up. When she saw Gu Li enter, she was stunned her eyes widened in disbelief, “You… you saved me last night?”

“Yes.”

Gu Li admitted and sat down on the chair by the bed. She asked, “How do you feel now?”

Lin Ranzhu stared at her before replying, “The doctor just checked, I’m fine now. Thank you, Miss Gu.”

After she finished speaking, she actually knelt down in front of Gu Li.

“Hey, what are you doing?”

Gu Li was taken aback and quickly tried to help her up, “I can’t accept your bow, come on now, get up.”

Lin Ranzhu fell onto the bed, her eyes rimmed red, choking up, “You’ve already helped me twice. Last night, you saved my life, why can’t I honor you this way? Miss Gu, I, Lin Ranzhu, will recognize you as my benefactor for the rest of my life. If you don’ t mind, I’m willing to work like an ox and a horse for you to repay this lifesaving kindness.”

Lin Ranzhu was simple and kind, and this was the only way she could think to repay.

Gu Li was moved, she patted Lin Ranzhu’s shoulder, “Helping you was a trifling matter to me; I don’t need anything in return.”

But… My father said that kindness should be repaid. Miss Gu, I___ ”

“You’re Lin Ranzhu, right?”

Gu Li interrupted her.

Lin Ranzhu nodded, “Yes, like two trees in a forest, ‘Ran’ rising, ‘Zhu’ like bamboo.”

“Ranzhu, what a nice name.”

Gu Li sincerely said, “But moving forward, you have to be more careful and not trust people too easily, got it? From what happened last night, what do you remember?”
