After Black Moonlight revealed her true feelings, everyone panicked.

Lou Xiao carried Lu Sijian back to the room, put her on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and sat by the bed to coax her to sleep.

The warm light from the bedside lamp outlined his handsome features, his eyes filled with focused affection.

As the person on the bed gradually calmed down, he tucked the blanket around her. Just as he got up, he felt his clothes being pulled.

“Ah Jian?” he explained gently, “I’ll go to the kitchen and cook you some medicinal porridge.”

Lu Sijian opened her eyes: "Will you come back?"

So, is her unusual behavior due to her anxiety and insecurity about him?

Lou Xiao said gently but firmly, "Yes, wait for me."

Lu Sijian obediently let go of his hand, and looked into his eyes, which seemed to be filled with the gentle warmth of the mountains and rivers of Jiangnan.

But as soon as Lou Xiao stepped out the door, his expression changed immediately.

Haha, clocking out! Bye-bye!

[You didn't expect this, did you? You're about to break your promise. You said you'd come back, but you're not coming back tonight.]

Shen Baolin is about to give you a little shock! I'll eat my hat if you come back after watching the video!

Lou Xiao paused for a moment, then silently closed the door.

What happened today is utterly unbelievable.

Why could he suddenly hear A-Jian's inner thoughts? Why was she so certain that he wouldn't go back?

Her health is not what it used to be, and he is always worried about her.

Lou Xiao went to the kitchen, rolled up his sleeves, and skillfully began to prepare the ingredients.

Normally, these tasks could be easily handled by the cook, but since it involved Lu Sijian, he was worried and insisted on doing them himself.

The cook smiled and said, "Mr. Lou really cares about the young lady."

Lou Xiao had always been calm, reserved, and sparing with words, and he hadn't planned to start a conversation.

But now I can't help but want to argue, "Ah Jian is the person I want to spend my life with. If I don't care about her, who should I care about?"

The cook was embarrassed and didn't dare to say anything.

Lou Xiao stared at the fire in the stove, feeling somewhat uneasy.

"Young Master Lou, Miss Mu has fainted due to a high fever. Could you please take her to the hospital?" Butler Ye suddenly rushed over.

Lou Xiao suddenly snapped out of his daze, his brows furrowing. "What's going on?"

Aunt Ye said anxiously, "Miss Mu has fainted. The second young master was in such a hurry that he tripped and fell while carrying Miss Mu downstairs, spraining his ankle and now he can't drive!"

"Miss Mu looks very unwell, what should we do!"

No wonder you were so hot before, it turns out it was that serious.

Lou Xiao felt annoyed whenever he thought of Mu Liangyue's stubborn little face.

"Why is she so fussy? Why didn't she see a doctor sooner when she was sick?"

Aunt Ye: "Miss Mu had a slight fever a few days ago. As you know, after leaving in the rain that night, she didn't even have a place to stay and spent the whole night in the stairwell..."

"She's stubborn and never complains, no matter how hard things are for her. She only thinks about the young lady. Who knew that her good intentions would backfire? Feeling guilty and having a high fever, she couldn't take it anymore and fainted."

Lou Xiao slowly clenched his fist; Mu Liangyue had fainted because of his words.

"where are they?"

"This way!"

He left in a hurry, not even noticing that the porridge in the pot had already started to boil.

In the underground parking garage, Lou Xiao, holding Mu Liangyue, was stunned to see his cousin sitting in the car: "Baolin? What are you doing here?"

Shen Baolin pursed her lips. "Brother, saving lives is the priority. Let's get in the car first."

-

Outside the window, the wind and rain were gloomy.

The weather forecast predicts severe convective weather tonight, and residents are advised to reduce travel.

Lu Sijian stood on the edge of the terrace, watching a car drive away in the heavy rain in the dark night.

As the car lights disappeared into the distance, the night returned to its dim and indistinct state.

Lu Sijian sighed, "Dislike points are so easy to accumulate; 30 billion is practically free. By the way, System, you guys aren't going to renege on your debt, are you?"

The mechanical voice slowly said: "No, the 30 billion is already bound to you. It will be unfrozen once you complete the mission."

Lu Sijian: "Really? V me 50 to see my strength."

system;【……】

A minute later, Lu Sijian's phone vibrated. She glanced at it and saw that it was a bank deposit notification. 50 yuan had indeed been deposited into her account!

Lu Sijian's eyes lit up: "Tongzi, you're so generous! It'll be a pleasure working with you!"

System: [This 50 is an advance payment. If you want to complete the mission, you need to work hard to outmaneuver the female lead.]

What it didn't say was that Mu Liangyue was protected by the protagonist's luck, so no matter how much scheming she did, it would only benefit her.

The more Lu Sijian does now, the more mistakes she makes.

The more unforgivable the crime, the more likely it is to be judged in the end.

"It should be applicable to any of the main characters, such as suppressing Shen Baolin, deceiving the three older brothers, or cheating on Lou Xiao!"

Lu Sijian felt she had mastered the trick to accumulating dislike points: "Once they discover the true colors of the villainous female supporting character, they will regret their actions towards the kind female lead!"

system:【……】

It seems that 30 billion is very attractive to her.

"Looks like I'll have to keep causing trouble," Lu Sijian said with a smile. "What's so great about being the female lead? Only the supporting female character can do whatever she wants."

System: 【...Whatever makes you happy.】

-

"Young Miss, why are you standing here?" Wang Ma knocked on the door and came in with a bowl of medicinal porridge. Seeing the wind making the window screens flutter, she was so frightened that she quickly closed the glass door to the terrace.

Lu Sijian then realized that her hands and feet were ice cold. "So cold, so cold."

Aunt Wang draped a trench coat over her shoulders, saying, "You're not in good health, so please don't catch a cold! Otherwise, Young Master Lou and Second Young Master will be worried about you!"

He paused, then remembered his purpose: "By the way, Second Young Master sprained his ankle, and Young Master Lou took him to the hospital."

Lu Sijian asked, "Did Lou Xiao leave any instructions before he left?"

Wang Ma was stunned.

Aunt Ye, who was waiting outside the door, pushed the door open and entered, smiling as she said, "Young Master Lou told you to rest at home with peace of mind. He will be back to keep you company soon."

"Was he really just dropping off my second brother?" Lu Sijian asked casually, fiddling with her phone.

Aunt Ye smiled even more kindly, as if she were coaxing a little girl, "Yes, he told you not to worry, the second young master will be fine."

Lu Sijian handed her phone to Wang Ma, "Take a look at them."

The phone screen showed a video, a surveillance video from the basement hallway.

The smile on Sister Ye's face gradually froze.

As Wang Ma watched, she became absolutely furious!

"No, Second Young Master and Mu Liangyue fell down. There are a lot of you here. Any two of you could easily lift Mu Liangyue into the car. Why did you go to Young Master Lou?"

Not only that, when a male servant tried to pick up Mu Liangyue, he was stopped by Aunt Ye.

Mu Liangyue was left lying on the ground. A few minutes later, Aunt Ye appeared in the surveillance video with Lou Xiao.

Lou Xiao, who is a clean freak by nature, picked up Mu Liangyue almost without hesitation and hurriedly left.

Aunt Wang: "Young Master Lou is Miss's fiancé. What kind of nonsense is it to let him send off other women?"

Aunt Ye: "But none of us know how to drive..."

"Then call an ambulance. Doctors and nurses are better at taking care of patients than Lou Shao!"

Aunt Ye looked on with amusement: "Miss Mu got caught in the rain and developed a high fever and fainted because of the eldest young lady. The Lu family can't just sit idly by. Young Master Lou and I are doing this for the eldest young lady's sake!"

Wang Ma was furious. "What right do you, a mere servant, have to say you're doing this for the young lady's good?"

Lu Sijian: "..."

At first glance, Wang Ma's words sounded like those of a malicious cannon fodder, but they miraculously grasped the essence of the problem.

From now on, Sister Ye will not only be qualified, but also have a legitimate claim to the position.

Lu Sijian glanced down at her phone. "Arrange a car for me right now. I need to go out."

Aunt Ye feigned difficulty: "Miss, the drivers have already gone home..."

"I'll settle the score with you in a couple of days." Lu Sijian ignored her excuses and gestured to Wang Ma, "Pack your luggage, let's go."
