The new day dawned bright and sunny. Holding the photo, Li Jin imagined Lin Momo seeing it and couldn't help but reveal a wicked smile—
Entering Lin Momo's room, Li Jin suddenly realized that no one was inside. She immediately ran out and asked Li Hao downstairs, "Where's Lin Momo? Why isn't she in her room?"
Li Hao glanced at Li Jin impatiently and said, "You're asking me? Who should I ask?"
"Weren't you downstairs the whole time? Didn't you see Lin Momo go out?" Li Jin asked anxiously.
“She’s just like Gu Liyan and the others, she can go wherever she wants, how can I control her?” Li Hao said impatiently.
Since Gu Liyan left, Li Erniang has completely changed. She gets angry at the drop of a hat. Li Hao tried every possible way to make her happy, but it backfired. Li Erniang actually hated him even more and said that he was useless.
He had just returned from a setback and was feeling down when Li Jin came over to question him. He already disliked Li Jin's behavior, but now he found it even more annoying!
"Don't you know Lin Momo hasn't recovered yet and can't go out at all!" Li Jin said angrily. "What if something happens to her out there alone? How will you explain that to Mo Li!"
Li Hao stood up and said irritably, "Explain? You're all capable and competent, unlike me, a good-for-nothing who just lazes around! I don't think it's a problem if one of you goes out alone, right? You always ask me where Mo Li went? Where Lin Momo went? Do you think I can guess what you're thinking!"
"You..." Li Jin didn't know what to say for a moment.
"They're all the same. If you want to find someone, go find someone yourself! I'm not putting up with this anymore!" Li Hao angrily turned and went back to his room.
Li Jin frowned, looking at the photos in his hand with displeasure. He hadn't expected that all his hard work would come to nothing. He never imagined that Lin Momo would disappear.
To find out when Lin Momo left, we have to ask Gu Li, who was the one who sent Gu Cheng to pick her up.
As dawn broke, Gu Cheng arrived and entered the room by feeling his way through the window. If he hadn't given his name directly, Lin Momo probably would have already started a fight with him.
Lin Momo didn't expect that Gu Cheng would bring her to the Gongsun family.
Lin Momo was displeased. "Don't they know that they are rivals for Gongsun Shengyi's affections?"
The thought of Yan Xiyue and Gongsun Shengyi being together yesterday annoyed her.
However, to Lin Momo's surprise, the head of the Gongsun family sent a private doctor to examine her and even prepared the best medicinal herbs to decoct medicine for her.
Lin Momo was filled with doubt and looked at Gu Cheng with suspicion, asking, "What exactly did you bring me here for? Where is Uncle?"
Gu Cheng respectfully said, "The master is doing morning exercises with Mr. Gongsun and Mr. Yan. He specifically asked you to come to the garden and wait for him."
Lin Momo waited in the pavilion in the garden for more than half an hour. Hungry and sleepy, she impatiently said, "You called me here and then went to do morning exercises with others. How come you have so much free time?"
Gu Cheng, standing nearby, chuckled dryly upon hearing Lin Momo's words, but remained silent. Lin Momo, dozing off with her chin resting on her hand, suddenly heard laughter from nearby—
"Haha, Gongsun, you have to admit you're getting old! If you don't exercise soon, your body probably won't last many more years!"
Lin Momo woke up immediately upon hearing the voice and saw three people in training clothes walking towards her.
The two old men followed behind Gu Li. Lin Momo knew without even thinking that no one but Gu Li would say such sarcastic and mean words.
Seeing Lin Momo waiting, Gu Li couldn't help but smile and say, "Come, let me introduce you..."
When Lin Momo saw Gu Li approaching, she didn't even see who was behind him. She asked impatiently, "Why did you call me over?"
Gu Li saw Lin Momo walking over with a smile and said, "You little brat, can't you show some respect for your elders?"
Lin Momo's face was pale. Her body was not what it used to be, so she didn't have the strength to speak politely to him. However, when she saw Yan Hai behind Gu Li, she perked up.
After thinking for a moment, I stepped forward and politely said, "Hello, Grandpa Yan."
Yan Hai was slightly taken aback, not expecting that Gu Li's "niece" would actually know him. He nodded and smiled gently, saying, "Hello, do you know me?"
Although Yan Hai had seen Lin Momo's photos, he knew that the Lin Momo in front of him was pale and did not have the arrogant demeanor shown in the photos at all. Instead, she looked like a gentle and weak girl.
Lin Momo awkwardly began, "I... I often heard Xi Yue mention you..."
Yan Hai was slightly taken aback. He looked Lin Momo up and down for a few moments before recognizing her as his granddaughter Yan Xiyue's lover! His expression immediately turned sour, and he gave a cold snort without saying anything.
After all, Gongsun Sheng was there and worried that if he knew Lin Momo's identity, he would have reservations and not agree to the marriage alliance with the Yan family.
Seeing Yan Hai's attitude towards her, Lin Momo didn't say anything and obediently stepped aside.
Seeing this, Gu Li smiled, patted Lin Momo on the shoulder, and deliberately changed the subject, asking, "Girl, I heard you were sick. How have you been these past few days?"
Lin Momo said softly, "I'm fine."
Gu Li raised an eyebrow when he heard Lin Momo's voice sound weak and somewhat hoarse. "Nothing wrong? I doubt it?"
As she spoke, she reached out and pinched Lin Momo's wrist to take her pulse. After a few seconds, her expression turned ugly, and she said angrily, "Is this how Mo Li treated your body? How come it's gotten worse?"
Lin Momo was slightly taken aback. "It's not Mo Li, it's his friend, Li Jin."
"Li Jin? Hmph, I think he's more of an enemy than a friend!" Gu Li said irritably.
