She spent the entire day locked in her room, not speaking to anyone, and hardly eating or drinking.
During that period, Ruan Anguo had visited her once, asking if she knew the whereabouts of Ruan Tianling.
She just shook her head, unable to ask anything.
Now a week had gone by, and the prime window for search and rescue had passed as well.
The likelihood of Ruan Tianling being alive dwindled even further.
Auntie Li's eyes were swollen from crying, but she still mustered the energy to make the wontons that Jian Yufei loved.
"Miss Jian, you hardly ate anything yesterday, please eat a little today."
Auntie Li placed the wontons on the bedside table, softly persuading her.
Jian Yufei shook her head, her eyes red and swollen from crying, with dark circles under her eyelids.
Her originally plump and pink lips had also become dry and chapped.
Her pale little face, devoid of color, looked even more pale as paper.
