Li Muxin, who was not healthy to begin with, had a high fever and could only lie in bed sickly, feeling weak and even... a little sore.
He lowered his head and straightened his pajamas a little.
Suddenly, her soft brows wrinkled, and her eyes fell on her chest in surprise.
This...what is this!
She was so frightened that she unbuttoned two buttons, stretched out her slender hands, and gently touched the bloody red marks on the delicate and fair skin on her chest.
what happened?
Where did these red marks come from?
It doesn't look like it's caused by alcohol allergy, nor does it look like a bruise left by hitting something, but it looks like...
My heart was pounding with nervousness!
Could it be that... those scattered fragments from last night are true!
She was so frightened that she almost screamed, but she did not dare to rashly conclude that her speculation was true.
He sat up and checked his body frantically. He didn't feel any pain or anything strange.
Except for the red mark on his chest that looked like someone had rubbed it, there was nothing to prove that those vague memories were true.
My heart was filled with shock...
Because of the inexplicable panic in her heart, she widened her eyes and fixed her eyes motionlessly and unfocused on a certain corner of the room.
There was a "click" sound.
The sudden noise frightened Li Muxin, and she screamed "ah", almost knocking Sister Cai, who was holding a plate of sumptuous breakfast, over the plate in her hand.
"Li...Miss Li, I...I...didn't do anything wrong...anything..." Sister Cai held the plate in her hands, her hands trembling slightly, and there was a trace of timidity in her squirming lips.
Her eyes were too timid to land directly on Li Muxin's face.
It seems like he is running away from something, afraid of something... more like suppressing the surprise in his heart.
Li Muxin raised her eyes and saw Sister Cai wearing a servant's uniform, and felt a little calmer.
"Who are you……?"
"Miss Li, I am Sister Cai, the servant sent by the Second Young Master to take care of your daily life." Sister Cai lowered her head and respectfully put the food on the small table prepared in advance and placed it neatly.
Then he placed the small table on the bed so that Li Muxin, who was unable to get out of bed, could eat easily.
"Oh, no need, Sister Cai, I can just do it myself." Li Muxin smiled faintly and reached out to take the dishes on her plate.
Unexpectedly, her seemingly normal behavior made Sister Cai panic. She lowered her head and apologized repeatedly, "Young... oh no! Miss Li, please don't do this. Sister Cai doesn't know what she did wrong.
Let Miss Li do it yourself. I hope Miss Li won't take it to heart and let me serve you breakfast."
Li Muxin looked at Sister Cai in confusion, her beautiful eyebrows frowning slightly.
When Sister Cai saw Li Muxin frowning, she misunderstood that Li Muxin was even more angry because of what she just said, and was so frightened that Sister Cai lowered her head even further.
"Miss Li! Don't be angry. What did Sister Cai do wrong that made you dissatisfied? I hope Miss Li can tell Sister Cai so that Sister Cai can make corrections in the future and serve you well, Miss Li.
"
Sister Cai's humbleness made Li Muxin a little stunned.
She didn't say anything. Why did Sister Cai keep apologizing to herself as if she was afraid of herself?
Li Muxin pursed her lips lightly and stretched out a light smile, "Sister Cai, you didn't do anything wrong, and I don't mean to blame you. You don't have to treat your Mr. Han with the same attitude.
As for me, I'm just here to recuperate temporarily, and I don't want to trouble you too much. Let's do this, Sister Cai. If anything happens, I'll call you in again, and you can go about your business first."
"Okay." Sister Cai nodded. Although she felt a little relieved after hearing what Li Muxin said just now, she still lowered her head and did not dare... to face Li Muxin's face.
She used to be the mistress here, but due to various reasons, she doesn't remember the past. I hope...she won't treat us servants like she used to.
Thinking secretly, Sister Cai, who lowered her head, took out a glass of boiling water and some pills from the plate and placed them beside the bed.
"Ms. Li, this is the medicine that Dr. He has prescribed for you. Remember to take it after dinner. If there are no other instructions, Sister Cai will go out first."
He put away the plate, turned around quickly, and closed the door gently before leaving.
However, Li Muxin became increasingly puzzled by Sister Cai's strange behavior.
Why... In the past few days, she always felt like she was being watched. Each of them looked at her with strange eyes.
These people feel like they know themselves, but they don't seem to know themselves. In their evasive eyes... they seem to be deliberately hiding something.
My head feels a little swollen thinking about it.
Hey, don't think too much, you should recover as soon as possible and go home early.
