Chapter 97 Miss Yi Yi is here
Suddenly, Lan Xiyue felt dizzy and her vision gradually became blurred.
She forced herself to raise her eyelids and looked at the teacup. Before she could say anything, she slid weakly onto the stone table. Her consciousness receded like the tide, leaving only chaos.
Mo Liyuan looked up when he heard the voice, his eyes swept across the empty teacup, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He knew clearly in his heart what a silly woman she was. However, he did not rush into action, still leisurely savoring the egg fried rice on the plate.
After the meal, Mo Liyuan slowly stood up and gently carried Lan Xiyue horizontally. Her body looked so delicate in front of his broad chest. He walked steadily and carried her to the room. He gently took off her shoes and socks. The pair of white and tender feet appeared and disappeared in front of his eyes, making his eyes even deeper.
Pulling the quilt over and covering her, Mo Liyuan sat beside the bed, his eyes as sharp as torches, fixed on Lan Xiyue's sleeping face.
Her face looked exceptionally peaceful in the moonlight. After a long time, he finally couldn't help lowering his head and placing a kiss on her forehead. That kiss contained tenderness, helplessness, and a deep affection that was hidden within.
After a moment, Mo Liyuan slowly stood up, turned around and left the room.
The next morning, the dim morning light shone into the house through the gauze curtains, and Lan Xiyue opened her eyes drowsily.
"Miss, you're awake." There was a hint of surprise in Chuchun's voice.
Lan Xiyue suddenly sat up, and Chuchun was startled by this sudden movement.
"Miss?" Chuchun exclaimed.
Lan Xiyue rubbed her sleepy eyes and asked in confusion, "Chuchun, how did I get back last night?"
She vaguely remembered that she drank the tea that had been drugged for Mo Liyuan.
Chuchun chuckled and said mysteriously, "Miss, it was the Regent who brought you back."
Upon hearing this, Lan Xiyue suddenly covered her cheeks with her hands, feeling extremely embarrassed.
Ah... It's so embarrassing. Others were fine after drinking it, but I was the one who was drugged.
Seeing this, Chuchun covered her mouth and chuckled: "Miss, last night, I saw from afar that the Regent was carrying you back to the room. His eyes were so gentle."
Lan Xiyue was stunned, and slowly put down her hands, her expression blank, her heart filled with mixed emotions and confused thoughts.
"Miss, what are you thinking about?"
Lan Xiyue shook her head in confusion. "Chuchun, after Mo Liyuan carried me back to my room, did he leave?"
Chuchun smiled wickedly and leaned close to Lan Xiyue's ear and whispered, "No, the Regent stayed in the room for quite a while before leaving."
Upon hearing this, Lan Xiyue suddenly looked down at herself, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that her clothes were neat and intact.
"Oh, Miss," Chuchun suddenly remembered something, "Yesterday, the old lady, two ladies, and Miss Yun from the Protectorate's Mansion all came to visit Madam. But Miss was with the Regent at the time, so they didn't come to disturb her."
Lan Xiyue slowly got up, washed and packed up, and Chuchun walked in with a steaming hot breakfast.
"Miss, have breakfast." Chuchun's voice was gentle and delicate. She gently placed a bowl of hot millet porridge on the table, with a few exquisite side dishes beside it.
Lan Xiyue walked to the table, sat down and drank porridge.
Chuchun's whisper rang in her ears: "Miss, yesterday the old lady of the Duke of Protectorate's residence, as well as the two ladies and Miss Yun, came and arranged a marriage between the second young lady and the third young master of the Duke of Protectorate's residence. However, the second young lady refused to agree, and the master was furious and confined the second young lady to Lingbao Courtyard."
Lan Xiyue paused slightly with the spoon in her hand. How could the proud and arrogant Lan Lingrou fall for her third cousin who had accomplished nothing? It was normal for her to disagree no matter what, but in ancient times, women who lost their chastity before marriage were despised.
"And then?"
Chuchun frowned. "I don't know the details, but I know it was quite unpleasant. When the Second Lady of the Protectorate left, her face was terribly gloomy."
Lan Xiyue had finished her breakfast, put down her bowl and chopsticks, and stretched lazily. "Lan Lingrou is already disabled, and Yun Qing is also paralyzed in bed. They deserve it."
"Miss, how could the Madam be paralyzed in bed when she was fine? It's so strange. The Second Miss also had an accident at the same time. What a coincidence."
"Bad guys get their comeuppance. Let's go and see Chu Xia."
Chuchun followed closely behind, her heart full of gratitude: "I have to thank you, Miss. Chuxia is much better now and is clamoring to serve you."
As she stepped into Chu Xia's room, a faint medicinal aroma filled her nose. Chu Xia was trying to get out of bed and saw Lan Xiyue come in. Her eyes suddenly gleamed with excitement: "Miss, I'm fine now, and my wounds have healed."
Lan Xiyue quickly stepped forward, gently pulled open Chu Xia's collar, and carefully examined the wound on her chest. She saw that the originally hideous scar had gradually faded, replaced by tender new flesh.
However, in the blink of an eye, Lan Xiyue's expression darkened again: "Chuchun, Chuxia, if you encounter danger in the future, don't stand in front of me. Remember to be smart and hide in a safe place."
Chu Xia heard this and looked determined: "I am a worthless servant, but if there is any danger, I will still stand in front of the young lady. The young lady is so kind to us, how can I watch the young lady fall into danger and do nothing?"
Lan Xiyue narrowed her eyes, her tone stern: "Chu Xia, if you don't listen to me, then don't serve me. Remember, protecting your own safety is the greatest loyalty to me."
There was an uneasy light in Chu Xia's eyes. She clenched her hands tightly, and her voice trembled a little: "Miss, I will listen to you. You must not leave me."
Lan Xiyue patted her shoulder gently, a gentle smile on her lips: "That's good, as long as you listen to me obediently, I will naturally not abandon you. Starting today, you will come back to serve me."
Chu Xia finally breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes brightening, "Thank you, Miss."
There was a sound of light footsteps outside the door, and then a little maid came in with a respectful look: "Miss, Miss Yi Yi is here."
Lan Xiyue frowned slightly, "Why is she here?"
In the Duke of Huguo's mansion, there is only one young lady, Yun Yiyi, who is the daughter of my aunt and has been doted on since she was a child.
When my second aunt gave birth to Yunhua, she was injured, so the second wife had only Yunhua as her son. Therefore, my second aunt doted on Yunhua even more, almost to the point of spoiling him.
People often say that a loving mother often spoils her son. Yun Hua was spoiled by his second aunt and became lawless. He was idle all day long and had no knowledge or skills.
"Miss Yi Yi wants to see you."
Lan Xiyue nodded slightly, straightened her clothes, and walked out of the room.
Chuchun and Chuxia followed behind her.
