Mu Wenya smiled and said, "Aunt Li, don't mislead people. That's called 'Good'."
What's going on? She couldn't understand it again.
Yi tilted her head and, imitating Li Ma, gave a thumbs-up, asking, "Why am I this? What does 'tinkering' mean?"
"Oh, I'm just saying you're amazing! Since the young lady fell ill, she hasn't gone anywhere except the hospital. We've tried to persuade her to go out for a walk so many times, but she hasn't agreed. You're the one who came up with the idea."
"Hehe, am I that amazing?" If Yi Yi had a tail, it would be wagging its tail right now.
Outside the room, Mu Nanxun overheard their conversation.
He was quite interested in what Yi Yi said about "there being another kind of creature in the world".
Mu Nanxun turned around and went to the study.
He vaguely remembered reading a book when he was a child, which seemed to describe a creature with wings, a pointed nose, and ears, just like Yi Yi had described. But so many years had passed, the study had long since been moved from the old house and renovated several times. Perhaps it had been lost in the process; could it still be found?
After searching for a while, I heard Li Ma calling for dinner, so I had to stop.
What's wrong with him? It's just a fairy tale book he read when he was little. Perhaps Yi Yi also happened to have read that book; what is he suspecting...?

Dinner was a seafood feast prepared by Li Ma.
Yi stared longingly at the pile of shelled things, wondering if they were really edible.
"He's obviously a country bumpkin!" Liang Xiaoru thought disdainfully. Although it was her first time eating such a lavish seafood feast, she tried her best to restrain herself and pretend that this stuff was nothing special to her.
"Miss, please eat more. After you finish eating, Xiaoru will take you back to your room to rest."
"Hmm." Mu Wenya took a sip of the water Liang Xiaoru handed her, and before she knew it, she felt sleepy again.
Mu Nanxun glanced at Yi Yi and put a piece of lobster meat into her bowl.
"insect!"
Yi Yi was startled and moved the bowl aside. Why was this person feeding her insects?
Mu Nanxun thought that it was normal for her to have grown up in the jungle and never seen these things before. He immediately had the idea to tease her.
"The first time I ate cooked insects, they tasted better raw."
"..." This thing can be eaten raw?!
Mu Wenya: Could it be that my younger brother is finally starting to understand things?
Uncle Zhang: Young master, what nonsense are you spouting? When have you ever eaten raw seafood? Should I respond or not? Never mind, I'll just watch the show.
Xiao Fang: Hehe, I'll just laugh and not say anything. PS: The boss is trying to fool the young girl again.
“When you eat raw food, you can feel them wriggling in your mouth,” Mu Nanxun continued, glancing furtively at Yi Yi’s contorted face.
"Ugh..." She felt a little nauseous.
"Although these insects taste good when disguised as other dishes, they still lack a fresh taste. It's better to eat them raw in the future."
"Ugh..." He meant that the dishes she used to eat were made from insects!
What should we do? Is it too late for her to vomit now?
Xiao Fang, Uncle Zhang, and the others were trying to suppress their laughter, but they dared not laugh, and their faces twitched.
Mu Wenya couldn't stand it anymore. "Yi Yi, don't listen to him. He's just teasing you."
"Really?" Compared to Mu Nanxun, the young lady's words were obviously more credible. That bastard Mu Nanxun actually lied to her, making her almost throw up what she ate for lunch.
