Countless black lines appeared on Li Xiyue's forehead. She flicked Mi Bao's head with her finger, "Did you go to complete a mission or to flirt with girls?! Even the little nurses are swooning over you!"

Honey snorted and said, "It's not my fault! Who told you to be so handsome and charming, loved by everyone, with flowers blooming and cars hopping around for you!"

Li Xiyue curled her lips. It's a good thing the system isn't human, otherwise who knows how many young girls it would have ruined!

She tapped the large screen in the space, and the screen immediately displayed a picture of Mu Cangnan's ward.

She just sent Mi Bao to Mu Cangnan's hospital room to install a hidden camera.

Mibao cleverly placed the pinhole camera on the fluorescent light on the ceiling of the ward.

The pinhole camera was pointed directly at Mu Cangnan, and she could see everything about him clearly.

She instructed Mi Bao, "You must keep a close eye on Mu Cangnan's condition from now on. If anything happens, call me!"

Mi Bao said, "Don't worry, I'm more afraid of Mu Cangnan dying than you are!"

It was absolutely the truth!

Li Xiyue asked in surprise, "Why are you more afraid of Mu Cangnan dying than I am?"

This statement seems reasonable at first glance, but it also seems quite problematic!

Honey opened her mouth and said, "Well... if he dies, you'll definitely be sad, the host will be sad, and as the system's master, I'll be sad too. So I'm even more afraid of Mu Cangnan dying than you are!"

Yue'er, doesn't your baby love you so much? You're the only one in my heart, without a doubt!

Li Xiyue raised an eyebrow slightly; Mi Bao's explanation was acceptable.

She sat in the boss's chair, staring intently at Mu Cangnan.

Mi Bao stood beside Li Xiyue, worried that Li Xiyue would see her as a "waiting-for-husband stone".

It took out a lot of delicious food from its spatial supplies and gave it to Li Xiyue to eat.

Even with the best food, Li Xiyue has no appetite right now.

Several hours later, Li Xiyue finally saw a military helicopter land at the base's airfield.

Du Jingshan has finally arrived!

After arriving at the base, Du Jingshan went directly to Mu Cangnan's ward. Mu Cangnan's attending physician followed behind Du Jingshan, reporting on Mu Cangnan's condition.

Du Jingshan examined Mu Cangnan again. Mu Cangnan's condition was very bad, and this surgery was necessary.

He instructed the nurses to take turns staying in the room to watch over Mu Cangnan, and that he would perform surgery on Mu Cangnan as soon as possible the next morning, as long as the light was good.

Mi Bao reminded Li Xiyue in the space, "Yue'er, it's getting late. If you don't go back to the dormitory soon, your other classmates will start to suspect you!"

Li Xiyue looked at Mu Cangnan one last time with reluctance before entering the spatial passage to return to school.

They were required to live on campus and could only stay at home occasionally. If they did not stay on campus, they needed to find a teacher the next day to obtain a leave slip.

The Li family.

Li Wenbo was surprised to see Li Yan return. He had originally planned to let Li Yan stay at her maternal grandmother's house for a few days and then pick her up in a few days.

Unexpectedly, Li Yan came back on her own.

He said with delight, "Xiao Yan, you're back! That's a good child! Your great-aunt made mutton meatball soup, Dad will get you a bowl!"

Li Yan got hungry as soon as she smelled the mutton meatball soup; it was meat!

Haha, since she's not here, the two of them are eating mutton meatball soup!

A fire ignited in her heart; sure enough, a stepmother means a stepfather!

It turns out that when her mother was home, the two of them would wait for her to come home before cooking meat, since meat wasn't something they could afford to eat every day.

Suppressing her anger, she sensibly said, "Okay, thank you, Dad! Dad, where's my sister? Has she eaten?"

Li Wenbo said, "Your sister has been at school and hasn't come home. I'll bring her some mutton meatball soup for lunch tomorrow."

With such good food at home, how could he forget his daughter?

He had already discussed it with Cheng Xiaohui, and they would deliver lunch to their daughter tomorrow at noon, and also deliver a portion to Principal Du.

Li Yan received reliable information that Li Xiyue was not at home.

She turned her gaze and said, "Dad, why don't I take it to my sister now? I said something wrong today and upset her."

I'm going to bring my sister some mutton meatball soup. Hopefully, she'll forgive me!

Li Wenbo was pleasantly surprised. Although he had always thought Xiao Yan was very sensible, he also knew that Li Yan was very stubborn and would never admit her mistakes.

Today marks the first time Li Yan has ever admitted her mistake!

He reached out and touched Li Yan's forehead, saying, "Xiao Yan is really a good daughter of your father. If you do this, your sister will definitely forgive you."

You and your sister are both Dad's daughters, and Dad hopes that you two will love each other dearly!

Li Yan nodded and said, "I know! As long as you forgive me, I'll admit my mistakes to you no matter what!"

Li Wenbo said, "I brought you two bowls of rice and mutton meatball soup. You and your sister can eat together."

Your aunt steamed some red bean buns today. Take two more for your sister to have for breakfast tomorrow.

He then headed to the kitchen to tell Cheng Xiaohui the good news.

When Cheng Xiaohui found out, she couldn't stop smiling. This was what she had always hoped for. If her two daughters could get along well, then after she and Li Wenbo passed away, Li Xiyue would at least have a younger sister to accompany and take care of her.

She packed almost all the meatballs for her two daughters, and also packed a few steamed buns.

As she walked, she reminded Li Yan to take her things carefully.

She watched Li Yan carry the lunchbox until she disappeared from sight before she and Li Wenbo went home.

As Li Yan walked, she cursed Li Xiyue. How could she have given such delicious food to Li Xiyue?!

She arrived at the place she had arranged to meet Mu Jiuchun and told him about her family situation.

She generously took out a lunchbox and handed it to Mu Jiuchun, "Auntie! Let's eat the mutton meatball soup together, Li Xiyue is definitely not going anywhere in the dorm!"

Mu Jiuchun couldn't resist the smell of mutton meatballs. She opened the lunchbox, picked up her chopsticks, and started eating the mutton meatballs, her mouth greasy with oil.

Li Yan finished her portion of mutton meatball soup.

She said to Mu Jiuchun, "Auntie, I'll go to the dormitory and call Li Xiyue out. When you have the chance, unleash the black dog!"

Mu Jiuchun said, "Don't worry! As long as you can bring her out, I can have the little black dog tear her apart. The location will be the grove behind the school dormitory."

Li Yan said, "Alright, just you wait and see!"

She carried several steamed buns to school, making sure her hands weren't empty, otherwise, she was afraid Li Xiyue would suspect her.

To her surprise, Li Xiyue was not in the dormitory at all; there was no Li Xiyue in the dormitory room.

Du Guixiang told her that Li Xiyue hadn't come back in the afternoon, and Du Guixiang thought that Li Xiyue had taken leave to go home.

Li Yan hurriedly ran to the grove to report the situation to Mu Jiuchun.

Mu Jiuchun asked in confusion, "Li Xiyue is neither at home nor at school, where could she have gone?"

There's definitely something wrong here! Let's wait here and see when she gets back!
