In truth, when Shangguan Xi had just come downstairs to make dessert, she had been worrying about her newly reunited younger brother. But later, when she discovered that everyone in the kitchen had quietly slipped away and felt a scorching gaze fixed on her, she knew it had to be Mosen.
But he didn't enter the kitchen, and that made her even more afraid.
So, she didn't dare to let her thoughts run wild, focusing instead on meticulously making desserts and ignoring his presence.
She had sensed his sudden proximity earlier.
Now, hearing him suggest taking her out to sea, claiming it was because her newly reunited younger brother's situation would delay his departure until next week, Shangguan Xi panicked instantly.
Though she had lost many memories, she was no fool.
She found it suspicious that her newly reunited younger brother became ill not earlier, not later, but at this precise moment. There had to be something wrong.
