Yueyao accompanied Zhuang Ruolan for lunch before returning to Begonia Garden. Perhaps because her mood was relaxed, Yueyao found beauty in everything she saw, even the withered branches on the trees seemed uniquely beautiful.
Yueyao had just lain down and closed her eyes when she was awakened by Xi Yu. Yueyao was accustomed to taking a half-hour nap at noon and usually woke up on her own without needing to be called; everyone who served her knew this habit, and wouldn't wake her unless it was something important.
Xi Yu quickly explained, "Miss, Uncle Master has come, and he has brought along a gentleman with him. They have been waiting outside the courtyard." Xi Yu's intuition told her this gentleman must be of high status; otherwise, Uncle Master would not be so courteous to him.
