Ye Jiu had never seen Chu Xi before. She only felt that the unfairness of fate seemed to have come true for him…
She did not know whether to sigh for Chu Xi’s fate or for her own past.
A sense of sadness arose. Ye Jiu rested her chin on her knees and hugged herself tightly.
If she did not have the chance to do it all over again…
“What happened to you?” Chu Mo saw that Ye Jiu’s door was ajar. He pushed open the door and saw that Ye Jiu was sitting on the sofa, looking wronged.
“Who bullied you?” Chu Mo’s expression suddenly turned dark as he grabbed Ye Jiu’s arm and asked.
Ye Jiu slowly raised her head. Her eyes were slightly red, but she did not cry any tears.
“Nothing, it’s just…” Ye Jiu said and smiled slightly. “I’m just a little tired.”
“Then don’t take care of the orchids tomorrow. Rest well in your room!” Chu Mo guessed that Ye Jiu must have suffered some grievance from his grandmother’s house.
He was sure that his grandmother would not bully Ye Jiu, so it must be someone else!
Chu Mo’s eyes darkened, and Ye Jiu thought to herself that it was best not to let him know who it was!
Ye Jiu looked at Chu Mo’s worried look and smiled sweetly, “I’m really fine! Have you eaten?”
Chu Mo shook his head and said, “Eat with me?”
Ye Jiu replied with an “okay” and stood up from the sofa.
Perhaps she had sat for too long, Ye Jiu felt her legs go numb as soon as she stood up and staggered.
Chu Mo quickly reached out to support her. “You can’t even stand properly?”
Ye Jiu grabbed Chu Mo’s arms with both hands and looked up at him awkwardly.”… My legs are numb…”
Chu Mo smiled bitterly and helped Ye Jiu to sit down.
He sat on the sofa and grabbed Ye Jiu’s feet.
Ye Jiu screamed and wanted to reject him. “Don’t…”
Chu Mo ignored her and massaged her feet.
Ye Jiu’s feet were numb and she screamed when she was pinched.
She quickly covered her mouth as she was afraid that her scream would cause others to misunderstand.
Lin Ying stood outside Ye Jiu’s room with her hands tightly clenched, to control herself from rushing in and tearing Ye Jiu’s mouth apart!
Initially, Lin Ying heard that Chu Mo was back, so she followed him…
Who knew that Chu Mo would enter Ye Jiu’s room as soon as he came back.
She glared at Ye Jiu for a moment, then turned around and left angrily…
“Ye Jiu! Just you wait!” Lin Ying picked up her phone and dialed a number..
…
Chu Mo held Ye Jiu’s hand and went to the dining room.
Ever since Nanny Li came to Old Madam Chu’s place, they had been eating at Old Madam Chu’s place for the past two days.
The kitchen maids did not expect the two of them to come back over for dinner together…
After a period of chaos, they finally served a few dishes that were passable.
Chu Mo was dissatisfied with the kitchen staff’s passive attitude. He was about to say a few words, but was stopped by Ye Jiu.
“Nanny Li is usually in charge of the kitchen. These two days, Nanny Li was suddenly absent, so they were not used to it yet.” Ye Jiu patted Chu Mo’s hand to comfort him.
“Just because Nanny Li went to Grandma’s place, they can’t cook anymore?” Chu Mo was still dissatisfied and said coldly.
Ye Jiu quickly begged for mercy on behalf of the servants, “Why don’t we punish them by asking them to prepare a few more snacks?”
Although Chu Mo was unwilling, since Ye Jiu said it, he did not pursue the matter any further…
The servants in the kitchen busied themselves preparing a few snacks.
After they brought them to the dining table and watched Ye Jiu and Chu Mo quietly eat the snacks, the servants finally made up their minds.
Although the Young Master did not usually scold the servants…
If they made a mistake, especially if they were lazy, they would definitely not be able to stay in the Chu family!
This was also the reason why there were so many servants in the Chu family, and none of them were lazy!
The servants in the kitchen were grateful to Ye Jiu, so their attitude towards her was naturally better.
After the two of them had their meal, Chu Mo suggested that they go to the garden to take a look.
Ye Jiu grabbed his hand and walked towards Old Madam Chu’s house. “Why don’t we go to Grandma’s house to see my orchids?”
Chu Mo did not refuse. “We can go and have a chat with Grandma.”
In the past, Ye Jiu would not easily go to Old Madam Chu’s house.
These days, seeing that Ye Jiu got along well with Grandma, Chu Mo felt a lot more at ease.
“Today, Auntie Sun and I checked the procedure plan of the cocktail party…” Ye Jiu held Chu Mo’s hand and walked slowly along the corridor.
“Hmm, if there’s anything that needs to be adjusted, you guys can discuss it.” Chu Mo seemed to know well about this matter.
“Okay…” Ye Jiu nodded silently.
She knew that no matter what request she made, Chu Mo would comply with her.
Ye Jiu grabbed Chu Mo’s arm and said, “The clothes that Auntie Sun picked for me have been sent over!”
“When we go back later, can I wear them for you?” Ye Jiu said with an expectant expression.
When Chu Mo heard that, he immediately pounded his chest and stomped his feet. “Why didn’t you say so earlier! Just now…”
Ye Jiu narrowed her eyes and stared at him.
Chu Mo immediately shut up and smiled. “Alright! I’ll listen to you!”
