"Cough, what's happening to you?"
"I... I'm under the bed, you must absolutely not tell my sister that I've been here."
Chu Ling'er hadn't even finished speaking when she quickly crawled under the bed.
Chu Yi bent down to look under the bed but felt like there was nothing there.
He had no idea where Chu Ling'er had gone in such a short time.
Chu Yi wanted to investigate further, but footsteps were already sounding from outside.
The door opened, and Chu Ruolin appeared in front of Chu Yi.
Chu Yi silently admired Chu Ling'er, realizing that she had known Chu Ruolin was coming, and only he was oblivious.
As soon as Chu Ruolin entered, she sat down directly on a bamboo chair next to the bamboo table.
She scrutinized Chu Yi with a pair of sharp eyes.
"Not too shabby. So, why not bring some wine to drink?"
"I... I don't really feel like drinking right now."
Chu Yi, feeling guilty, stammered out his response.
