There was the sound of running water in the bathroom.
Lu Manman tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
If she could sleep, she would have slept earlier so that she would not have to sleep in the same bed as him.
A while later.
Mo Yuanxiu came out of the bathroom and seemed to smell of shower gel.
He lifted the blanket and got ready for bed.
Lu Manman turned to the right side, putting some distance between them.
He smiled, took off his pajamas, and lay down beside her in only a pair of underwear.
She tried her best not to lean against him.
The two of them naturally kept a distance from each other.
“You were bitten by Daisy?” he asked suddenly.
“How did you know?”
“How do you think I know about what happened at my own place?” he asked, looking amused.
“Mm-hm, I was bitten and given a rabies injection. It hurts so much!” Lu Manman said directly, but she was still fuming inside.
Everyone, including him, had forgotten to remind her that Daisy hated being close to others.
He reached out and pulled her into his arms.
She struggled and twisted her body.
Moreover, she could sense that he was practically naked behind her.
“Don’t move. You know that the harder you move, the easier it is to stimulate a man’s instincts,” he said. “And I’m tired.”
She stopped what she was doing and cursed in her heart.
“Don’t get close to Mo Li in the future.”
“Why?” she turned around and asked.
He had his eyes closed and was burying his head in her hair. When she turned to look at him, she saw that he was tired and sleepy.
“Sleep early.” He stroked her head affectionately as if comforting a child.
She pouted. “My dad wants us to go to the Lu family’s main household tomorrow.”
“Okay.” Mo Yuanxiu’s voice was getting increasingly groggy.
She clenched her teeth and kept quiet.
Soon, she heard his even breathing.
What had he done to be so tired? He had fallen asleep the moment his head touched the pillow.
She, on the other hand, was suffering from insomnia after a day’s rest.
With her body in his arms, she looked out the window at the moon in a daze and eventually fell asleep.
The next morning.
In the morning, when not everyone was up, someone knocked on the door.
She opened her eyes in shock.
Mo Yuanxiu, who had been hugging her, also opened his eyes.
“What’s the matter?” His voice was cold.
“Eldest Young Master, it’s bad. Miss’s illness is acting up. Get up quickly. I heard that Daisy has disappeared. Miss is crying very sadly now,” the servant said anxiously.
Mo Yuanxiu suddenly threw aside the blanket and left in his pajamas.
Lu Manman was shocked as well. She hurriedly changed and ran out.
In Mo Li’s room, the two elders of the Mo family were watching as Mo Li cried until she was out of breath. Her entire body was convulsing, and the two elders were pale with fright. Mo Yuanxiu strode over and asked calmly, “What happened? Did you call Dr. Zhang?”
“Yes, he’s on the way,” Jiang Yuyan said as her eyes turned red. “This morning, Xiao Li said that she couldn’t find Daisy, so she started to cry. Then, she had this convulsion. Dr. Zhang checked her yesterday and said that she’s recovering well… Now, the servants are helping her find Daisy.”
There was the sound of running water in the bathroom.
