In the evening, the moon climbed to the peak of the mountain.
After two hours, Xu Ziling woke up in bed. As she slowly opened her eyes, she saw the affectionate look on Madam Xu's face.
Madam Xu suddenly looked delighted. "Ling'er, you're finally awake."
Xu Ziling let out a small yawn, then forced herself to sit up. With a groggy voice, she asked, "Mother, how did I suddenly fall asleep?"
Just then, she recollected how odd Xu Jianchen had acted in the afternoon and her eyes shot wide open. "Mother, where's Xu Jianchen?" She asked through gritted teeth and an incredibly vicious look in her eyes.
Madam Xu saw the astonishingly furious look on Xu Ziling's face. "Ling'er, forgive your Second Brother. He's still young. You must teach him well. Don't..." She pleaded in a gentle voice.
Xu Ziling didn't finish listening to Madam Xu, as she got out of bed and ran outside.
