Liyi and Ni Xuanyi had breakfast together. The doctor came again to conduct a thorough examination of Ni Xuanyi. There were no signs of concussion, and her head injuries had healed well. Liyi discussed with the doctor and decided to take Ni Xuanyi out of the hospital.
Even though the facilities in the hospital were excellent, it was still a hospital. Ni Xuanyi felt incredibly comfortable and relaxed when she returned home with Liyi. The air seemed freer.
Liyi's phone didn't stop ringing since he started being around Ni Xuanyi again. Ni Xuanyi could tell that there were countless matters waiting for Liyi to handle and many people expecting him to meet them. She wanted Liyi to return to his company immediately as she was feeling better and could take care of herself.
After spending an afternoon dealing with the matter concerning Ni Xuanyi, Liyi didn't have more time to accompany her. Reluctantly, he had to entrust Ni Xuanyi to Lian again, who wasn't very reliable. He instructed Lian repeatedly to take good care of Ni Xuanyi this time.
This time, Lian learned his lesson and didn’t take Ni Xuanyi out to play. Instead, he invited friends home for a visit. If Ni Xuanyi wanted to play with them, she could; if not, she was free to stay in the house and rest. He wouldn't have to be responsible for any mishaps.
After Liyi left, Ni Xuanyi saw Lian inviting his friends again to gather in the living room to play mahjong. The winner would treat everyone to lunch.
Ni Xuanyi didn’t get along with them and went to read books in her study instead, picking up books that could improve women's qualities, cultivation, and charm. She wanted to improve herself as quickly as possible so she could match the outstanding Liyi.
At noon, Lian asked the servants early to invite Ni Xuanyi for a meal. The dishes on the table were all ordered from five-star hotels. There were many dishes, all looking very appetizing. However, they were all selected according to Lian's own taste.
Sao Meizhu was extremely resentful and grumbled while eating: "Lian, since you don't like spicy food, not a single spicy dish is ordered. Since you prefer light flavors, there isn't even any meat. How selfish can one be"
"Don't be picky. It's great to have something to eat at all. If you don't want to eat, go downstairs." Li An has never been lenient with Shao Meizhuo; he glared at her. "I'm the winner. I can order whatever I want."
Seeing how arrogant he was, Shao Meizhuo wasn't happy. She snorted coldly. "When you were eating with us like this before, why didn't you do so when you were with that little girl You only ordered dishes she liked, and since she loved spicy food, you always accompanied her to eat Sichuan cuisine despite the stomachache it caused you every time. Hmph. You flattered her all the time, yet in the end, she still left."
"Stop talking nonsense." Li An threw his chopsticks down and immediately exploded. "Shao Meizhuo, if you dare to say anything more, I'll strangle you."
Everyone present believed that he would really do it based on the terrifying expression on his face.
Shao Meizhuo wisely shut her mouth. Li An angrily stood up and went off to smoke elsewhere.
When Shao Junhe saw Li An leave, he scolded his sister next to him. "Meizhuo, you really know how to stir the hornet's nest. Knowing why he is upset about this matter, why did you mention that person"
Shao Meizhuo glanced in the direction of Li An and saw that he was far away from her; she snorted and said quietly, "Hmph, I simply can't bear to see him acting like a walking dead. I deliberately wanted to provoke him."
Shao Junhe had no words for his sister's behavior over the years.
Ni Xuanyi kept her head lowered throughout the meal, eating in silence as if none of the commotion around her had anything to do with her.
After finishing her meal, Ni Xuanyi returned to her room and avoided this place full of conflict.
Since her conversation with Li Yi in the hospital, she has been more cautious when visiting the Li family and intends to find some traces of Li Yi's mother Gu Xiaobei and Yan Luoxi, the woman who was engaged to Li An.
The grand hall outside the Li residence and many noticeable places are adorned with decorative oil paintings but there are no photos of either Gu Xiaobei or Yan Luoxi. The entire third floor where the Li couple lives is sealed off; only the housekeeper is allowed to clean up there personally, nobody else.
With nowhere else to look, Ni Xuanyi wandered on the second floor, looking around at the brothers' bedrooms, study rooms, game room, and gym. All these rooms were usually open, neat and tidy with nothing special inside.
While walking, she noticed a room at the end of the second-floor corridor was closed tightly—she had never seen it opened before. Curious, she walked over to give it a slight push on the doorknob but found it locked.
"Miss Ni."
A sudden voice startled her; she quickly turned around and saw a servant holding fruit behind her.
"Miss Ni, Second Young Master asked me to bring you some fruit," said the servant with a gentle smile.
“Oh.” Ni Xuanyi nodded. She then pointed at the closed room and asked, “Did Miss Yan used to live in this room”
The servant clearly hesitated before nervously glancing downstairs; seeing no one around, he nodded slightly.
"Why is it locked now Do you not usually clean inside" Ni Xuanyi pretended to be curious and asked.
The servant hesitated for a moment and cautiously said, "The key to that room is in Second Master Li's possession. He doesn't allow anyone to approach the room casually. Miss Ni, you'd better stay away from that room. If Second Master sees you standing there, he won't be happy."
Ni Xuanyi gracefully left the entrance of Yan Luoxi’s room and a strong feeling of envy welled up in her heart once again. Even though Yan Luoxi had already left this place, she remained forever in his heart.
In recent days, Li Yi was very busy. It seemed that an important business summit was being held in the city. During the day he would attend meetings and at night, he would entertain friends. By the time he returned home, Ni Xuanyi had already gone to sleep.
However, Li Yi was very meticulous; every night he either slipped a note under her door reminding her to eat regularly and take her medicine or left a small gift outside her room. Sometimes it would be a necklace, sometimes a Barbie doll, other times a box of imported chocolate.
Each time Ni Xuanyi received these little gifts, she would look at them with delight and excitement, unable to let go.
"What are you傻笑什麼呢。厲安走過來，順手從厲熠送給倪暄漪的巧克力盒子裡拿了顆巧克力。
倪暄漪如夢方醒，奮不顧身地搶被厲安拿走的巧克力。“你還給我，你不準吃……快點還我……”
厲安身材高大，手臂長，迅速把巧克力丟進嘴裡。
倪暄漪看著那顆巧克力在厲安口中消失了形狀，眼中迅速泛起了淚光。“你乾什麼啊，誰讓你吃的啊，那是厲熠哥哥送我的……”

The servant hesitated and cautiously said, "The key to that room is with Second Master Li. He doesn't allow anyone else near it. Miss Ni, you'd better stay away from the room; if Second Master sees you there, he won't be pleased."
Ni Xuanyi obediently left Yan Luoxi's room and felt a surge of envy. Even though Yan Luoxi had already left this place, she remained forever in his heart.
Li Yi was very busy these days due to an important business summit being held locally. During the day he would attend meetings and at night entertain friends; by the time he returned home, Ni Xuanyi had already gone to sleep.
However, Li Yi was very thoughtful; every night he either slipped a note under her door reminding her to eat regularly and take her medicine or left a small gift outside her room. Sometimes it would be a necklace, sometimes a Barbie doll, other times a box of imported chocolate.
Each time Ni Xuanyi received these gifts, she would look at them with delight, unable to let go.
"What are you smiling about" Li An walked over and casually took a piece of chocolate from the box that Li Yi had given Ni Xuanyi.
Ni Xuanyi snapped out of her daze and made an all-out effort to snatch back the chocolate. "Give it back to me, don't eat it… give it back quickly…"
Li An was tall with long arms; he swiftly put the chocolate in his mouth.
Ni Xuanyi watched as Li An chewed the piece of chocolate until it lost its shape and her eyes rapidly filled with tears. "Why did you do that Who gave you permission to eat it That's a gift from Brother Li Yi…"o Meizhuo had simply wanted to discipline this woman. Seeing that even Yan Luoxi was pleading for Xiaohuan, she raised her foot and let the other girl go. She then criticized Yan Luoxi: "How can you b...
