Chapter 1019: The Test of Indulgence (4)
Mo Yan was extremely tired, and after scanning the room, she noticed that the bedding was all new. It seemed that the Zhao family people had prepared in advance, ready for their arrival at any time. The room was also very clean, and devoid of any foul odors besides being uninhabited. She then threw herself on the bed without expending much energy to notice the room’s furnishings and decorations.
She slept very soundly, and by the time Mo Yan woke up, the sun was almost setting. She rubbed her slightly swollen forehead from sleep, washed her face in the Space, and drank a big cup of Spirit Spring Water, finally feeling refreshed.
Upon exiting the room, Mo Yan saw a girl of about fourteen or fifteen years of age waiting by the door.
The girl’s name was Xianglan, and she was Zhao Laoda’s daughter. Seeing Mo Yan come out, she hurriedly bowed and greeted her, saying that her grandfather had arranged for her to serve the master.
Although Mo Yan was not accustomed to it, she didn’t say anything. Since she was unfamiliar with the place, having someone to show her around and run errands was convenient.
After learning that Shengsheng had woken up early and gone to play upfront, Mo Yan found not only her father and siblings in a large garden, following Xianglan’s guidance, but also a person who should not have been there.
"Didn’t you say you didn’t have the time to come?" Mo Yan asked Xiao Ruiyuan, her tone filled with joy.
A few days ago, Mo Yan had sent a letter to Xiao Ruiyuan, mentioning her plans to visit the villa and asking him to join her for fun. However, with the Great Chu and Qiuzi Country’s armies joint defensing the frontlines, Xiao Ruiyuan needed to be vigilant about the front’s situation in case of changes, so he couldn’t come. Now, seeing the person who wasn’t supposed to be there, it was no wonder Mo Yan was so surprised.
