The second mistress of the Huo Family waited for several days.
She did not wait for Duonian.
Duonian seemed to have vanished from her world.
Chen Xishan, mindful of her status, naturally would not take the initiative to contact him, so she asked Lu'er to inquire.
Lu'er returned with red eyes.
She said, "Don't wait for him anymore! He's so heartless! While you're still thinking of him, he's following Mrs. Zhou's arrangement to go on blind dates!"
Chen Xishan hurriedly asked, "Has he found a girl he likes?"
Lu'er shook her head, "Not yet! It's only said that he's looked at several."
Chen Xishan pondered and said, "I reckon he also finds it hard to forget me! Go inquire again if he's recovered; if not, send some medicine, saying I care about him."
Lu'er went to handle it.
Chen Xishan still worried about Duonian's health, unable to let go after missing one chance.
Helplessly, Duonian avoided her, and for ten days, she hadn't seen him once.
