Chu Yuan asked, "Are you a fan of Shi Xi?"
Ning Yu: "Mm."
Ning Yu (formerly): I am her older sister.
Ning Yu now: Even if she's a fan, she's still a fan.
Chu Yuan understood, but still refused, "I'm sorry to have dragged Shi Xi into this, but I've already cleared myself off."
Chu Yuan's actions have sealed his own future.
However, he successfully extricated Shi Xi from the matter.
Ning Yu changed the subject, "As far as I know, Mu Qinglan took a lot of property when she divorced you."
Chu Yuan: "It's none of your business."
Ning Yu looked at Chu Yuan.
Chu Yuan is Mu Qinglan's ex-husband, and with his help, it will be easier to expose the dirty deeds Mu Qinglan has done.
However, it's okay without his help.
It's just a little more troublesome.
Ning Yu closed the medicine kit, preparing to ask Xie Yunzhou for more consultation fees.
Is she, a renowned healer, only out here to treat people's minor colds?
Just as Ning Yu was about to leave, Chu Yuan called out to her.
"What do you intend to do to Mu Qinglan?"
Ning Yu's lips curled slightly.
It seems Chu Yuan isn't that stupid after all.
Ning Yu said, "It's just about letting her receive the punishment she deserves."
Chu Yuan: "Can you do it?"
Ning Yu's tone was cold and arrogant, "There's nothing I can't do."

After taking a shower, Shi Xi stood by the peephole and looked out.
Xie Yunzhou found Shi Xi's furtive actions both cute and strange.
"Someone knocked on the door just now, but I ignored it." Xie Yunzhou glanced at Shi Xi, then looked away. "Put your clothes on."
Wearing a spaghetti strap nightgown, Shi Xi looked down in confusion: "Where am I not dressed properly?"
The black silk pajamas were extremely comfortable to wear and made the skin appear even whiter.
The only problem was that the skirt was a little short, exposing her long, straight legs, and the neckline was a little low.
Shi Xi clutched her chest. "Anyway, you're not allowed to go out. I'm going to dry my hair."
Xie Yunzhou's eyes followed Shi Xi until the door closed before he looked away.
It's so hard to wait.
I really want to go in with them.
When will he be able to openly and legitimately go out with Shi Xi?
A moment later, Shi Xi opened the door and said, "You can sleep here tonight."
Xie Yunzhou's heart fluttered instantly, and a smile appeared on his lips. He said politely, "Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"
"You can sleep on the sofa." Shi Xi came out carrying a blanket.
Xie Yunzhou: ?
Shi Xi placed the blanket on the sofa and said, "Goodnight~"
Xie Yunzhou, with everything arranged for him, asked, "Goodnight?"
Goodnight my foot!
How can he sleep?!
Oh well, it's not the first time I've slept on the sofa.
Being able to share a bed with Shi Xi, or rather, share a room with her, is already a huge step forward.

The next day.
early morning.
Shi Xi yawned as she came out of the bedroom and saw that Xie Yunzhou, who was still asleep on the sofa, had not yet woken up.
Xie Yunzhou is nearly 1.9 meters tall. It's no wonder that someone that tall can't sleep well when he's crammed into a small sofa.
He can't even straighten his legs, let alone turn over.
How pitiful.
Shi Xi saw that the blanket was about to fall to the ground, so she went over and picked it up and covered him up.
Before she could even touch him, Xie Yunzhou grabbed her wrist.
Xie Yunzhou woke up with a start and saw Shi Xi in front of him. He was dazed for a moment, "Xi Xi?"
"I saw your blanket had fallen off, so I covered you up." Shi Xi didn't notice anything amiss and said, "Since you're awake, get up."
"Hmm." Xie Yunzhou released her hand and saw that the girl's wrist was red from where he had squeezed it. He said apologetically, "Sorry, I thought it was someone else."
"Besides me, who else would cover you with a blanket?" Shi Xi rubbed her wrist, belatedly realizing that her words were a bit ambiguous, and quickly said, "It's okay, it doesn't hurt."
