Qu Yunyao quickly leaned in to listen.
“Yunyao is your cousin. She even got slapped by that shrew for you just now.”
Mo Weiyi was surprised, “For me?”
Why does she not believe it?
“Yes.” Mo Yaoxiong sighed, “Dad knows you don’t like her, but she hasn’t done anything bad. The incident last time was probably a misunderstanding. You guys are cousins and they live here; even if you don’t like her, don’t disrupt the peace of the family, okay?”
After saying this, he gave his orders decisively, “Get the driver to take you there immediately, and Yebai will be there later.”
She didn’t really want to go, but upon hearing that Xiao Yebai was also going to be there, Mo Weiyi immediately agreed, “Okay then, wherever Xiaobai goes, I’ll go.”
Mo Yaoxiong:

Seven o’clock in the evening.
Autumn winds were depressing and chilly.
Mo Weiyi truly didn’t want to return to the old mansion.
She wasn’t sure if it was due to the wind from the car windows on the drive back in the afternoon, but she felt a bit chilled.
She was still lying in bed when she received the call, and the idea of making the long trip to the old mansion to see people she didn’t like, and having to express gratitude for their gifts against her will, was daunting.
However, all considerations were defeated by the phrase Mo Yaoxiong said… Xiao Yebai was also coming over in the evening.

Upon entering the guest room of the main hall, Mo Weiyi glanced at the mother and daughter sitting on the couch, changed her slippers, and walked gracefully towards them.
Taking off her overcoat, she was wearing a high-necked, fitted orange sweater, and white skinny jeans underneath.
Quite warm.
Usually, she didn’t really dress like this, sticking to elegant and feminine dresses that were loose and comfortable.
But upon seeing her now, her slender body shape was fully revealed, graceful and elegant, honey-colored curly hair draping softly over her shoulders, her small exquisite face lightly made up, presenting a beautiful and refined appearance, exuding an unexpected aura of elegance.
“Sister Yiyi.”
Qu Yunyao hurried to rise, taking up the prepared gift box, “You’re back, this is my gift for you.”
Mo Weiyi walked over, her bright cat eyes lightly lifted, “It’s not some fragile thing again, is it?”
Qu Yunyao’s face showed some embarrassment, as she quickly said, “No, not at all, I took great care to choose a gift that wouldn’t be hard to take care of. I know that sister Yiyi doesn’t lack for much, so I chose a painted portrait of a young girl. I hope you’ll like it.”
Mo Weiyi smiled, “Thank you.”
In her mind, she muttered, why would anyone send a painting? Such a pretentious gift.
Qu Yunyao carefully handed the gift box to her.
Mo Weiyi glanced at it, then carelessly placed it behind her on the back of the sofa.
“Yiyi, you’re here,” said the old master Mo and Mo Yaoxiong as they walked in.
“Grandfather, dad.” Mo Weiyi glanced behind them, “Has Xiaobai arrived yet?”
“Yebai said he has to work late.”
The old master Mo then said, “Are you hungry? If you are, let’s start the meal.”
“Not hungry, we’ll wait for Xiaobai to arrive and eat together.” After saying that, Mo Weiyi took out her phone and started to play with it by herself.
Qu Yunyao sat back down and asked, “Mom, how was today’s re-examination?”
“There’s still no improvement.”
“Will it affect your ability to play the violin in the future?”
“Uh…” Xu Jing seemed hesitant to speak.
Mo Weiyi kept her eyes on her phone the whole time, not reacting to the conversation.
It was indeed Mo Yaoxiong who asked, “What did the doctor say?”
Xu Jing had no choice but to answer, “The doctor said it might have a little impact.”
Seemingly afraid that he would feel guilty, she quickly added, “Doctors always exaggerate their diagnoses. He probably just used that as a scare tactic so that I’ll cooperate with the follow-ups.”
Mo Yaoxiong let out a sigh, “For now, just do as the doctor says and rest at home, go to the hospital for regular follow-ups, and let Shi Bo know if there’s anything you need.”
“I will, thank you, brother-in-law.” Xu Jing answered with a gentle smile.
“It looks like it’s going to rain, I really want to live next door to you, lift my head, and count the dark clouds…”
A sudden burst of noisy music came from Mo Weiyi’s phone.
The volume was at its maximum, startling everyone in the living room.
Mo Weiyi smiled as she rose, “I have to take a call.”
On the balcony, Mo Weiyi switched off the music from her phone.
Taking a few breaths of the fresh, chilly air, she started feeling a bit more comfortable.
The high-necked sweater made her throat feel slightly uncomfortable…..
Perhaps because she was too warmly dressed, she felt unbearably suffocated in the room.
She stood behind the railings, listened to the faint laughter coming from the living room, her beautiful cat eyes eagerly looking towards the main road beside them.
It was pitch-black, apart from the scattering lamplights, there was nothing else.
Time slowly passed.
After what felt like forever, a set of car lights finally approached from the distance.
Mo Weiyi immediately smiled and picked up the phone, dialing the number.
The call was quickly answered, and a deep, chilly male voice came through, “Weiyi.”
“Xiaobai, I see you from the balcony. Could you come over here?”
“What do you mean?”
Mo Weiyi said, “Come to the balcony in the living room.”
“Okay.”
The call was then hung up.
Mo Weiyi continued to stand there waiting, until a car stopped not far in front of her. The car door opened, and a tall, forbidding figure walked out.
Mo Weiyi quickly waved her hand.
Because it’s a landscape outside, the balcony is extended. There’s a railing in front of her waist, and behind her is a floor-to-ceiling window. The curtains are pulled at the moment, people inside couldn’t see outside at all.
When the man approached, Mo Weiyi immediately reached out her hands to him.
Xiao Yebai glanced at her thin dress. He was expressionless, but still gripped her hand.
It was soft yet ice-cold.
Mo Weiyi giggled, “Xiaobai, carry me out, okay?”
Xiao Yebai looked at her:
“Hurry up.” Mo Weiyi urged.
Seeing his reluctance, she withdrew her hand, reached up to hug his neck, tipped her toes, and leaned closer, “Xiaobai, carry me out.”
Xiao Yebai lifted his arms, circled her slim waist, his voice was deep and puzzled, “What are you trying to do?”
“Stop talking.” Mo Weiyi said, “Hurry up and carry me out.”
Then, her feet finally left the ground.
Xiao Yebai stood outside the railing as he held her straight up.
“Raise your legs a bit.”
Mo Weiyi obediently lifted her legs. Her body was suddenly in mid-air, vaulted over the railing, and finally landed in his warm and strong embrace.
The air between them was filled with his clean and pleasant masculine scent.
“Xiaobai.”
Um, Xiaobai’s face is icy, it’s rather comforting to lean against it.
However, Xiao Yebai said, “What were you doing outside while having a fever?”
Mo Weiyi’s hands were icy, and her face was burning hot.
It’s clear she was down with fever.
Mo Weiyi blinked her eyes, “Do I have a fever?”
Xiao Yebai:”…”
He said, “I’m taking you to the hospital.”
“No.” Mo Weiyi was radiating a faint heat, she was already in his arms.
“I don’t want to go to the hospital.”
“I’ll be with you.” Xiao Yebai carried her into the living room, walking around the main entrance.
The crowd, who had been chatting, were all a bit stunned.
The old master Mo was utterly confused, “What happened, Yiyi?”
Wasn’t she on the balcony making a phone call?
Why did she get carried in from outside?
Xiao Yebai said, “Weiyi has a fever.”
“Fever?” Mo Yaoxiong furrowed his brows, “Wasn’t she fine just now? How could she catch a fever after answering a call?”
Xiao Yebai came over, picked up the bag, and put the coat on her, “Sorry, I need to take her to the hospital.”
“Good, hurry up.” The old master Mo looked worriedly at his granddaughter, “Drive carefully, call me when you get there.”
“Alright.”
Master Mo watched them till they were out of the door. After the car left, he let out a sigh, “This girl.”
Turning his head to see Mo Yaoxiong, his face dropped. “Didn’t you know that my granddaughter was sick? Why did you make her travel all this way for dinner?”
Mo Yaoxiong:
“Inexcusable!”
Qu Yunyao sat there, with faint mockery in her eyes.
Did she really have a fever?
She was perfectly fine just then. Obviously, she was just making an excuse not to stay here and see me, right?
“Dad, let’s have dinner first,” Mo Yaoxiong persuaded, “Yiyi will be fine. Xiaobai is taking care of her. I’ll call later to check.”
Master Mo glared at him again, “You’re well enough to call your daughter? You don’t even know she’s sick! What a waste!”
Scolded in front of Xu Jing and her daughter, Mo Yaoxiong felt very awkward.

After dinner, everyone returned to the living room.
Mo Yaoxiong made a call to Xiao Yebai, afterwards he said, “Dad, no worries, Yiyi is having an IV drip, and Xiaobai is going to stay in the hospital with her for the night.”
Master Mo nodded, leaning on his crutch and left..
