"I didn't say anything, why are you panicking?"
Yi Yi pretended to know nothing, and in fact, she really did know nothing.
“Young Miss, since you’re tired, you should rest. I won’t disturb you any longer. I’ll come to see you tomorrow morning. I’ll take you out for a walk. I heard there’s some kind of food exhibition, but I’ve never seen it before.”
Yi Yi's eyes gleamed, and she couldn't help but drool. What was originally an extremely ordinary thing seemed incredibly meaningful to her, causing those around her to inexplicably yearn for it as well.
"Okay, I'll definitely go."
After the two made their agreement, Yi Yi greeted Liang Xiaoru and told her that she would go find Li Ma and the others. Then she went downstairs.
Dinner is over.
Knowing that Yi hadn't eaten much that night, Li Ma went to the kitchen and made her a bowl of noodles.
Yes, this is the right way to enjoy delicious food!
Yi was really starving, and she wolfed down her food until her cheeks were slightly sweaty.
The bowl was empty in no time. Yi patted her stomach with lingering satisfaction and said sweetly, "Thank you, Aunt Li. You're the best to me."
"Don't be so polite, there's no need to thank Aunt Li. Besides, the young master specifically asked me to make these noodles for you, so if you want to thank someone, you should thank the young master."
"That guy." When did he become so considerate?
“Yi Yi, I think the young master treats you quite well. However, if you believe what Li Ma says, you should still keep a distance from the young master. Always remember your place,” Li Ma said with concern.
In the past, that would have been fine. But now, the young master is engaged to Miss Xia, and he will marry her sooner or later. Miss Xia comes from a prestigious family and naturally won't tolerate any infidelity. If Yi Yi gets too close to the young master, the young master might not care, but there's no guarantee that Miss Xia won't do anything to Yi Yi.
Yi Yi is a simple-minded child; she has no intention of harming others, nor is she wary of them. Staying by the young master's side is very dangerous. Even if the young master wants to protect her, he sometimes can't be there for her.
Although she didn't know why Li Ma said that, Yi Yi believed that Li Ma was only trying to help her. Besides, she didn't want to get too close to that arrogant guy.
"Don't worry, Aunt Li, I've remembered what you said. By the way, where is the young master? I need to talk to him about something."
"Young Master usually handles official business in his study after meals. However, you can't just enter Young Master's room casually, or he'll get angry." Even the young lady would inform Young Master before entering his room.
After Li Ma finished speaking, she remembered that the young lady wanted to drink barley porridge the next morning, which needed to be simmered over low heat for 8 hours. So she gave her a few more instructions and went to do her own thing.
When Yi went upstairs, she found Mu Wenya's room was indeed quiet; she must be asleep. Then she went up to the third floor.
The third floor houses the study, as well as Mu Nanxun's room and bathroom. Yi Yi, preoccupied with the urgency of the matter, completely forgot the rule Li Ma had taught her not to casually enter the young master's room.
She first went to the study and saw that the light was on, so she knocked on the door, but no one answered. She thought that the young master hadn't heard her, so she was about to knock again.
Just then, they suddenly heard a noise from the next room.
Thief?
Yi Yi darted to the doorway, listened intently, but there was no sound again. Had they discovered her?
After a while, rustling sounds came from inside again.
