Zhou Xinyao wiped away her tears gently and said, "It's okay, I just recalled some past events."

"Sister Xinyao, I'm sorry. I said the wrong thing just now and made you remember the past," Lijuan said guiltily.

Zhou Xinyao forced a smile and replied, "It's okay."

Li Juan looked at Zhou Xinyao and mustered up the courage to ask, "Sister Xinyao, were you thinking of Master Bai just now?"

Zhou Xinyao was stunned for a moment, and the blush on her cheeks deepened.

"You are such a smart girl. Nothing can be hidden from your eyes."

"I miss Brother Chuan. I don't know if he is doing well now. I remember the last time I saw him in the detention center. He had lost a lot of weight."

As Zhou Xinyao spoke, she couldn't help but choke up.

This was the first time Zhou Xinyao missed Bai Yunchuan so much since she regained her memory.

During the period when she had just recovered her memory, Zhou Xinyao was immersed in all kinds of sad past events and the self-blame and pain for the disappearance of her father and Liu Wanning.

I didn’t even have time to miss Baiyunchuan.

What Lijuan said just now made her think of Bai Yunchuan, the man who brought her into marriage again.

Zhou Xinyao has nothing but love for Bai Yunchuan. During the time they have been together, Bai Yunchuan's kindness to her is really impeccable.

Moreover, unlike Liu Zhiqiang's kindness to her, Liu Zhiqiang's kindness to her was purposeful. If you observe carefully, you can find that it contains a strong intention to show off and a strong desire to ask for something.

Bai Yunchuan's kindness to her was completely unconditional and without asking for anything in return.

Zhou Xinyao saw all of this clearly.

Knowing that Bai Yunchuan was wholeheartedly good to her, Zhou Xinyao missed him even more.

"Sister Xinyao, please don't cry. Master Yunchuan will be sad if you hurt yourself," Lijuan comforted.

Seeing that Zhou Xinyao's mood did not seem to ease, Li Juan continued, "I remember that you can visit during major holidays. The Lantern Festival is only a few days away, and you two can meet again then."

"This is real?"

Zhou Xinyao looked at Lijuan with joy.

"It's true, because... I've experienced it."

As Lijuan spoke, the light in her eyes gradually faded and she looked depressed.

This was the first time that Zhou Xinyao saw the cheerful and lively Lijuan become so deep and lonely.

"I'm sorry," Zhou Xinyao said guiltily.

Zhou Xinyao knew that she must have touched upon Lijuan's sad past, which caused her to become lonely and depressed from being a lively and cheerful girl.

"Sister Xinyao, I was overthinking it."

Lijuan sobbed softly and smiled at Zhou Xinyao.

"Oh, why should I think about these unhappy things? Everyone has to look forward," Lijuan said cheerfully.

Seeing that Lijuan's hands were a little red from the cold, Zhou Xinyao moved to the side of the bed.

"Lijuan, you should go to bed and have a rest too. You are exhausted today."

"Sister Xinyao, I have thick skin and it's not a big deal."

Lijuan clapped her hands and smiled, but the slightly trembling corners of her mouth gave her away.

The room was a little cold, and Lijuan was shivering from the cold, but she was just holding on.

Zhou Xinyao smiled helplessly, patted the bed and said:

"You said it was okay, but your upper and lower lips are already fighting~ Come up quickly, don't be polite to me."

Lijuan hesitated for a moment and walked carefully to the head of the bed.

"Thank you, Sister Xinyao, you are so kind."

"Don't be polite, take off your shoes and get on the bed~," Zhou Xinyao ordered.

"I……"

"Come up~", Zhou Xinyao pulled Lijuan hard.

Lijuan put her legs together on the edge of the bed, still feeling a little restrained.

Lijuan had been looked down upon too many times by other employers before, so she dared not be careless.

"Come here, silly girl~"

Zhou Xinyao pulled Lijuan again and covered her with the quilt.

"Silly girl, you are so stupid!"

Lijuan chuckled and said, "Sister Xinyao, I'm not shy, but I don't dare. Let me tell you, I had an employer who seemed very kind and approachable, and often treated us as sisters. But one time, he got angry for no reason, and he was like that..."

"Of course, you are definitely not such a person, otherwise I wouldn't dare to lie next to you," Lijuan said with a smile again.

Zhou Xinyao smiled and said, "Please treat others as you would like to be treated. If I treat you well, you will definitely treat me well too."

Lijuan smiled perfunctorily. She really found it hard to agree with Zhou Xinyao's point of view.

"Sister Xinyao, let me tell you the truth. I think that most people can put themselves in others' shoes. But for some people, no matter how good you are to them, they will take it for granted and even go further to demand more from you."

Lijuan's words made Zhou Xinyao think of Ye Huanhuan and Qiu Nannan.

I used to be so kind to them with all my heart, but I didn't expect that instead of appreciating my kindness, they treated me like a fool and plotted against me.

"Alas~ It's true, some people really don't deserve us to be kind to them, but I can't bear to be cruel to them," Zhou Xinyao sighed.

"Sister Xinyao, I think that in a family like yours, you should be decisive and ruthless. Otherwise, you will be bullied."

As Lijuan spoke, she looked at Zhou Xinyao. Finally, she could no longer bear it and spoke out what was in her heart.

"Especially that Qu Yiman, you really have to be careful of her. If she dares to do anything bad to you, you must be ruthless."

"I also know that this woman is not a good person, but I don't want to turn my home into a place for palace fighting, so I stay away from them. I'm thinking that after Brother Chuan comes out, the two of us will find a quiet and comfortable small city and live happily."

"There should be three people, because there is a baby~", Lijuan looked at Zhou Xinyao's slightly bulging belly.

"three people……"

Zhou Xinyao kept muttering, and tears couldn't stop flowing down.

"Why are there three people?"

Zhou Xinyao thought of Liu Wanning and Zhou Honghai, and felt more and more upset.

Seeing Zhou Xinyao crying, Lijuan immediately thought of the missing Liu Wanning.

"I'm sorry, Sister Xinyao, I... oh, why have I been so dumb with my mouth lately!"

Lijuan said this and slapped her mouth hard.

"Sister Xinyao, it's all my fault, my stinky mouth."

"Sister Xinyao, don't worry, Miss Wan Ning and the others will definitely come back safely."

Zhou Xinyao forced a smile and said, "I also believe that they will be safe."

Li Juan helped Zhou Xinyao tidy up her pillows and said with a smile, "Sister Xinyao, it's already late, you should go to bed early."

"I don't know what Ziqing is doing. Let's go down and check on her. I'm really worried about her."
