Night falls.
Xue Ning lies quietly in Li Yuan's arms, their inner garments touching.
Li Yuan feels the temperature on her delicate body slowly drop, but her spirit remains low.
He wraps his hand around Xue Ning's neck, gently touches her forehead, perceives her state for a moment, then pulls her close again.
"You're not feverish anymore, but you need to rest well."
"Husband, I... I heard that an elder from the Guo Family came during the day."
"Why are you still worrying about this?"
"Ah..." Lady Xue sighs softly.
Li Yuan doesn't want her to worry, but he doesn't want to hide it either, so he tells her everything as it is.
Lady Xue immediately falls silent.
Even though their son has accepted Lady Hall Master as his master, it doesn't mean she will endlessly help them. Today, an Elder Guo came looking for trouble. If Li Yuan were to directly use the "Jade Token" given by Gu Xuejian to find the Hall Master, the problem could certainly be resolved.
