Shennongjia.

Xixi stared at Master Yao Lao’s hut when they arrived. She knew they were here because of her illness, and the illness was causing her mommy to be upset.

She didn’t expect to see Yuan Mo in Shennongjia though.

“Brother Yuan Mo, Brother Yuan Mo!” Xixi, who was eating, jumped down from her stool and dashed toward Yuan Mo when he entered the house.

“Xixi.” In a swift motion, Yuan Mo hurriedly caught Xixi who had tripped and asked in a concerned tone, “Does it hurt anywhere?”

Xixi shook her head. She was used to it.

Yuan Mo held Xixi’s hand, and his other hand was holding a basket containing cleaned wild pheasant meat. “Grandma Yao, my grandpa asked me to bring you this.”

Grandpa Yuan growled, “I’m not taking credit for this.”

It was purely his grandson’s effort. The first thing he did when he came back was take his grandfather to hunt for wild pheasants in the mountain. The wild pheasants there fed on natural herbs, so they were very nutritious and good for health.

Grandpa Yuan was shocked when Yuan Mo threw his bag aside and immediately went out to hunt for wild pheasants the minute he arrived. He wondered why his grandson was so attentive to the little girl next door.

Ye Yuwei glanced at Gu Juexi. “See? The little guy is more attentive and compassionate than you when it comes to courtship.”

Gu Juexi sneered in disdain, “It’s all talk.”

“He is very practical, actions speak louder than words.”

“Do you want a chicken? I’ll get you one.”

“It’s the thought that counts, okay?”

Gu Juexi reached out and turned Ye Yuwei’s head back to her bowl of rice. He clamped a piece of chicken meat and put it in her bowl. “Just eat.”

Ye Yuwei glared at him. Was it too late to regret her wedding?

Ye Yuwei got up and took the wild pheasant. She stroked Yuan Mo’s head gently and said, “Please thank your grandpa for his effort.”

Yuan Mo smiled shyly and scratched his head. “Auntie, why is Xicheng not with you?”

Xixi’s expression instantly became gloomy and she asked arrogantly, “Brother Yuan Mo, don’t you like me anymore?”

“Xixi,” Ye Yuwei chided warningly.

“Wah!” Xixi burst into tears, hitting Ye Yuwei with her little fists.

Before Gu Juexi could grab her, Master Yao Lao had already gotten up. She took out a silver needle and pressed it into a spot on Xixi’s head. Xixi was struggling in her mommy’s embrace vigorously but her movements got slower and slower until she had stopped moving completely.

“Auntie,” Yuan Mo looked at Ye Yuwei anxiously.

Ye Yuwei carried the sleeping Xixi and looked at Master Yao Lao.

“Let her sleep,” Master Yao Lao ordered and turned around to resume eating.

“Auntie, I want to stay with Xixi, may I?” Yuan Mo frowned and pursed his lips nervously. His grandpa told him that Xixi was very ill. Based on what he had just seen, he was right.

He heard that Xixi had injured Xicheng earlier, it seemed to be true as well.

No matter what, he wanted to keep her company.

“Of course! But have you eaten yet?” Ye Yuwei carried Xixi back into the room and asked Yuan Mo who was following her.

“I have eaten. Auntie, please go and have your dinner. I will stay with Xixi,” Yuan Mo declared while patting his own chest determinedly.

Ye Yuwei put Xixi down on the bed, then pulled a blanket over her and tucked Xixi in. She looked at Yuan Mo and said, “Thank you. If Xixi wakes up, tell me.”

Yuan Mo nodded resolutely.

Ye Yuwei patted Yuan Mo’s head tenderly and left the room.

When Yu Yuwei turned around at the door, she saw Yuan Mo lying by the bed and tidying Xixi’s hair.
