Wen Rou's Second Aunt eventually left.
She departed without saying a word, not even leaving behind a harsh word for revenge.
In the living room.
Mu Jinyu saw Wen Rou's slightly distressed look and knew her mood wouldn't be great, and decided to let her have some time alone.
Turning to look at Gu Xiyan, who seemed a bit lost, Mu Jinyu said, "I'm almost done with dinner, Xiyan, come and keep me company."
"Oh..."
Gu Xiyan glanced at Wen Rou with concern, responded, and obediently followed Mu Jinyu to the kitchen.
Seeing this, Wen Rou gave them a grateful look and didn't insist on making dinner herself. She went back to her room in a jumbled mood and blankly daydreamed.
"I don't know how to cook."
Gu Xiyan, following Mu Jinyu into the kitchen, remembered she had never dipped her hands in household chores and helplessly said so.
Having said that, she prepared to slip away, planning to wait for Mu Jinyu to finish cooking dinner before calling her to eat.
