He Yanxiu then stopped what he was doing.

Seeing that Su Yujin was still sleeping soundly with her head covered as if she had not been woken up at all, He Yanxiu yawned and continued to sleep.

After He Yanxiu’s breathing became even and he seemed to be fast asleep, Su Yujin secretly poked half of her head out from under the quilt.

“Close call……”

Su Yujin took a deep breath and then stared at He Yanxiu for a long time.

Even though the candlelight was dim, the light shining through the curtain became blurry, and only the vague and irrelevant outline of He Yanxiu could be vaguely seen, but even so, a perfect profile could still be seen.

The second master who was born so handsome…

Not only does he have a fondness for men, but he also has this habit of doing things himself.

Why……

Su Yujin let out a sigh as if she had died.

It was said that when God closes a door for a person, he will definitely open a window.

The window opened for the Second Master was on the cliff!

Su Yujin’s heart was filled with regrets, and suddenly she became more worried.

Now that she knew so much, and with her contract of servitude in the Second Master’s hands, he probably felt more at ease. But if she were to try to buy back her freedom and leave in the future, would the Second Master refuse to let her go or demand her silence?

Although the Second Master seemed to be a very kind and gentle person, human nature had always been the most unreliable thing. If it really came to that…

Su Yujin felt a layer of cold sweat on her back, and she couldn’t fall asleep no matter what!

After thinking about it for a long time, until she heard the first rooster crow, Su Yujin closed her eyes in a daze.

——

When He Yanxiu opened his eyes, he saw Su Yujin beside him still with her eyes closed.

She just didn’t sleep well.

She clutched the quilt tightly with both hands, her brows were furrowed, and her expression looked quite ugly.

He Yanxiu, “…”

Was it a terrible thing to share a bed with him?

Or maybe, she just didn’t sleep well last night.

After all, it was a bit difficult to adapt to suddenly having someone around you.

He Yanxiu didn’t think too much about it. He just thought that since Su Yujin hadn’t woken up yet and hadn’t slept well, he just let her sleep a little longer and got up first.

Lu Wenjing had already started doing horse stances in the yard.

The water lotus’s red color looked like a beautiful flower blooming in winter, and it is particularly eye-catching on a bare winter day.

“Biǎogē got up so late.” Lu Wenjing stopped walking, picked up the hot tea prepared by Ai Cao and drank it, then looked around again, “Where’s Miss Su? Why can’t I see her?”

“She didn’t sleep well last night and was a little tired, so I let her sleep a little longer.” He Yanxiu took the hot towel prepared by Xing’an and washed up.

The bed almost collapsed last night, it would be strange if she wasn’t tired!

Lu Wenjing’s face turned red like an apple, and she turned away to drink hot tea. After she finished a cup of tea, she said, “Since my Biǎogē loves Miss Su and doesn’t let her get up early, then this breakfast…”

What to eat?

She was very hungry.

Her stomach was beating like a drum!

“Don’t worry, Miss Lu. The young lady had already instructed us to go to the Huibin Building this morning and ask the chef there to make some breakfast. It’s ready now. If Miss Lu is hungry, you can have dinner anytime.” Ai Cao whispered.

“Since there is food, put it up first.”

Being hungry, Lu Wenjing no longer cared whether the food was made by Su Yujin herself.

“Yes.”

Ai Cao and Mother Liu quickly cleaned up and set the table.

Shuǐjiān bāo, yān de jiècài sī, liángbàn luóbǔsī, báicàixīnbān dòufǔ gānér, tea eggs, and a bowl of porridge with black lumps in it.

The shuǐjiān bāo were crispy on the bottom, tender on the outside, and had juicy meat filling. They were bite-sized and you won’t feel sick of them even if you eat several in a row.

The side dishes were crisp, refreshing, appetizing and delicious.

The tea eggs were cooked just right, with the fragrance of tea, not too salty or too bland, and easy to eat…

They were all delicious!

This porridge…

Lu Wenjing looked at the black stuff in the bowl and hesitated to eat it.

“Preserved egg and lean meat porridge is delicious. It tastes better than minced meat porridge.” He Yanxiu said while drinking the porridge.

After hearing what He Yanxiu said, Lu Wenjing gritted her teeth, made up her mind, and put the spoonful of porridge into her mouth.

The unique taste spreads in the mouth all of a sudden…

……

When Ai Cao was cleaning up the dishes and going into the kitchen to wash them, she was sighing all over.

When she and Mother Liu went to Huibinlou to get food, she specially asked for a full casserole of porridge because she was thinking about the two of them having breakfast, and she also liked to eat preserved egg and lean meat porridge.

As a result, the casserole was now cleaner than her face.

All of it went into Lu Wenjing’s stomach!

She didn’t know how a wealthy lady who looked so delicate and petite could eat so much.

Hey, if she went to Huibinlou to ask for some porridge now, she didn’t know if she would be there on time…

After eating and drinking, Lu Wenjing was very satisfied, and her watery eyes curved into crescents.

Without waiting for He Yanxiu to urge him, he had already gathered his cloak and climbed onto the horse, “Biǎogē, I’ll be leaving first.”

“Be careful on your way. When you get back, say hello to my wàizǔfù，wàizǔmǔ, jiùjiù, jiù mǔ, and my biǎogē ​​for me.” He Yanxiu saw her to the door.

“It’s okay to be careful, but as for saying hello…”

Lu Wenjing tilted her head and laughed mischievously, “Let’s wait for my Biǎogē to go back by himself.”

“I’m leaving!”

Lu Wenjing cracked the whip, and the horse neighed and galloped away.

Almost in an instant, there was no trace of her.

He Yanxiu narrowed his eyes and put his left hand behind his back.

When Su Yujin woke up, it was already noon.

Seeing that He Yanxiu was no longer on the bed, she called Ai Cao into the room to help her get up and wash.

“Where’s the Second Master?”

“The Second Master is reading outside.” Ai Cao replied, “The Second Master and Miss Lu have finished their breakfast, and Miss Lu has gone home.”

Lu Wenjing had left?

Su Yujin frowned, “Why didn’t you wake me up earlier?”

Although in terms of status, she was just He Yanxiu’s mistress, Lu Wenjing and He Yanxiu were the master, and she was the servant, and had no qualifications to be on an equal footing with Lu Wenjing.

But she was He Yanxiu’s mistress after all. After the host and guest left, she, as a servant, was still sleeping, which was inevitably very rude.

What was particularly lost was He Yanxiu’s courtesy, and she also lost face.

“I originally wanted to wake the young lady up, but the Second Master said that the young lady did not sleep well last night and asked her to sleep a little longer, so I had to wait outside.” Ai Cao explained in a low voice.

He Yanxiu asked her to sleep a little longer.

He Yanxiu knew that she didn’t sleep well?

Then, did He Yanxiu know that she knew about what happened last night?

Well!

Was it too late to say that she knew nothing now?

When Su Yujin came out after packing up, she took a special look at He Yanxiu who was reading a book.
