Mu Jiu watched their retreating figures, his mind heavy with thoughts.
Returning to the ward, he found that old Lady Mu hadn't gone to sleep.
She was leaning against the headboard, lost in thought.
"Why aren't you lying down to rest?" Mu Jiu, being dutiful, helped old Lady Mu to lie down.
Old Lady Mu clutched his hand and said, "I just heard from the nurse that you and Ruanruan have some misunderstandings?"
Mu Jiu reassured her: "What misunderstanding could there be? Didn't I just come to see you?"
Old Lady Mu shook her head.
She said, "Jiu, that's not what I meant."
Then she sighed, "I heard that she's having a tough time at the Bao Family, even her fiance was snatched away several times! Jiu, isn't the Gu Family strong enough to protect her?"
Mu Jiu was roaring inside.
Damn!
Who spread these stupid rumors?
Su Ruanruan's man isn't Bao Ziqi at all, okay?
Moreover, with all her plotting and scheming, does she even care about such trivial matters of love?
