Wen Xin had not expected the usually clever Mu Chengxi to have his moments of foolishness. She put down her chopsticks, straightened her posture, and looked at Mu Chengxi.

“I mean, I’ll go to the old house for dinner tonight and check on Grandma’s health while I’m there.”

Mu Chengxi paused in his shrimp peeling, looking at Wen Xin. He had thought it would take a few more days for Wen Xin to agree to visit the old house, but to his surprise, she agreed to go today.

“Then I’ll call Grandma. This morning, my mom called me, asking when I would bring you home,” Mu Chengxi said, dialing his Old Madam Mu’s number to inform her about bringing Wen Xin for dinner.

The joy in the old lady Mu’s voice cthrough the phone. She was finally going to see the granddaughter-in-law she had been longing for.

Wen Xin picked up her chopsticks again, took a shrimp that Mu Chengxi had peeled for her, dipped it in sauce, and found the taste quite delightful.

After lunch, Wen Xin lay in bed while Mu Chengxi went out to buy sfeminine products and a heating pad, returning without the previous panic. Knowing Wen Xin’s preferred brand, he knew exactly what to buy.

Mu Chengxi took out the heating pad, placed it on the outside of Wen Xin’s underwear, and she squinted at his movements, finding them perhaps too practiced.

He gently covered Wen Xin with the blanket. After tucking Wen Xin in bed quietly, Mu Chengxi looked up to find her staring blankly at him. He raised an eyebrow in question.

“What’s wrong? Did I do something incorrect?”

“No, it’s just that you’re too comfortable around me, as if the idea of undressing is no big deal to you anymore,” Wen Xin said bluntly, her frankness catching Mu Chengxi off guard and causing him to stagger.

“My little ancestor, could you consider the situation before speaking? When I decide to undress you, you won’t be able to escape!”

Following that, Mu Chengxi crawled up to Wen Xin, kissed her lightly on her pink lips, gently stroked her head, and said, “Sleep well, and we’ll go to the old house for dinner after you wake up.”

Unable to resist Mu Chengxi’s tender gaze, every tWen Xin saw him look at her so affectionately, she wanted to do something ‘excessive’. She pulled the blanket over her, closed her eyes, lay in bed pretending to be dead, and said nothing more.

Due to the weather, Liang Luoyu and his group didn’t go to the horse track but decided to play mahjong at a club instead. When they arrived, they ran into Wei Shisheng and Ou Shenzhi leaving the club.

When Gu Xiang saw Shisheng, her hand involuntarily clenched, but she refrained from any further action.

The people around were surprised by Gu Xiang’s calm demeanor, expecting her, given her personality, to confront Shisheng.

“Are you here for a meal as well?” Shenzhi asked Yichen, approaching him with a polite demeanor.

“Yes, we were planning to go to the horse track after lunch, but it started raining, so we chere to play mahjong. Would you like to join us for a bit?”

Ling Yichen, looking at Ou Shenzhi and then at Wei Shisheng hiding behind him and silent, smirked mockingly.

“No, thank you. We’re just checking out the place. It’s my grandfather’s birthday in three days, and you must cto celebrate.”

Ou Shenzhi, noticing Ling Yichen’s gaze, held Wei Shisheng’s hand and addressed everyone with a gentle and humble voice.ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ɴovel(ꜰ)ɪre.nᴇt

“Of course, we wouldn’t miss Old Mr. Out s birthday. The gifts are already prepared. Since you won’t join us, we’ll head inside.”

Ling Yichen then walked upstairs with Nan Xiu, followed by their group, without giving Ou Shenzhi and Wei Shisheng another glance.

Feeling ignored, Wei Shisheng tightened her grip on Ou Shenzhi’s hand, her gaze fixed on the departing group.

Just then, Gu Xiang turned back to look at Wei Shisheng, gave her the middle finger in a brazen manner, and walked up the stairs.

Ou Shenzhi, not noticing Gu Xiang’s gesture, held Wei Shisheng’s trembling hand, preparing to leave, while Wei Shisheng murmured, “Why, wasn’t she supposed to be in a coma? How is she up and about again?”

Ou Shenzhi, unaware of the details, felt Wei Shisheng was concerned about Gu Xiang and shared what he knew without hesitation.

“I heard that Wen Xin saved Gu Xiang. This morning, my grandfather praised Wen Xin’s medical skills, having benefited from her medicine at the sanatorium, and remarked that Zhuge Jingming’s pills couldn’t compare to Wen Xin’s…”

“I get it!”

Wei Shisheng didn’t want to hear any more praise for Wen Xin, feeling chaotic inside, as Wen Xin had once again thwarted her plans.

Not only had she failed to harm Wen Xin, but she had also exposed her own schemes. Gu Xiang was proving useless.

She suspected they knew about her hypnotism, yet wondered why no one had confronted her, unable to believe Gu Xiang would just let it go.

When the group entered the reserved private room, Liang Luoyu was surprised at Gu Xiang’s calm, having expected her to confront Wei Shisheng, but she remained composed and moved on.

“You’re different today. Normally, you would’ve confronted her directly Everyone present knew who Liang Luoyu was referring to.

“Wen Xin toldWei Shisheng is cunning, and I’m no match for her. I plan to deal with her when I’m stronger, but I’ve already started to cause her strouble,” Gu Xiang declared proudly, unwilling to let Wei Shisheng get away with her actions.

Hearing Gu Xiang, everyone pondered how Wen Xin, a young girl, managed to influence this proud princess.

When Wen Xin woke up, it was dim outside. She turned to see Mu Chengxi propping his head with one arm, lazily lying on the bed watching her.

“Have you been watchingthis whole time?” Wen Xin stretched lazily, pinched Mu Chengxi’s cheek, and couldn’t help but admire the touch.

“I just woke up too. It’s getting late. Do you want to get up? Your phone vibrated a few times earlier,” Mu Chengxi said softly, pulling Wen Xin into his embrace..
