Chapter 415 - 394 Second Update
"Xing Yu hasn’t come back yet?" Zheng Nianru murmured naturally.
Supported by Nanny Yun, Ju Nanyi suddenly felt an illusion, as if she had already married him and was reluctantly following him home to meet his mother.
"Xing Yu went to buy pastries from Myriad Flowers Tower," she murmured.
"Xing Yu hasn’t come back yet?"
Ju Nanyi seemed to forget all the pain in her body, as if this foolish trick, which even she found laughable, suddenly had meaning, all because of her casual remark.
Return? As if this place was her home.
"Lord Ju, please lie down; the physician will be here soon," Nanny Yun said, seeing Ju Nanyi’s discomfort and guessing that perhaps a family member of his was sick. Was that why he was in such a hurry for money, and why he went to Riverfood Restaurant?
Nanny Yun then looked around this clean but unavoidably poor home, where not even one decent chair could be found for the Commandery Princess to sit on.
"Thank you—" Ju Nanyi whispered, deeply impressed by the image of Nanny Yun and her people, who was always sorry for him and frequently came to counsel him, even when he made many mistakes.
"Is that Nanyi returning?" Mother Ju’s voice came from the inner room, hoarse and dry from long-term illness caused by years of toil.
Ju Nanyi wanted to reply but felt dizzy, her head throbbing as if someone was continuously hammering at her skull. Just as she was about to speak, her body wavered, and Nanny Yun caught her in time, slowly lowering her to a chair before hesitantly stepping into the inner room.
