Bai Yu could not sleep. After letting Bai Hua inside, her thoughts were occupied by the conversation between them all night. By the time she could close her eyes, it was already near dawn. Today, Xiao Xi had to use more make-up on her miss in order to cover up her paleness and dark circles. Bai Yu was heading to Yue Mansion since she felt she would not be able to gather her thoughts if she did not see her brother’s face.
“Miss.”
“She’s back?” Bai Yu glanced at her other personal maid, who had disappeared since early in the morning. Up until now, Xiao Xi was the only one helping her get dressed.
“How did it go?”
“I’ve bought those male servants’ silence, miss. At dawn, I paid that maid’s friend to pretend that she came across her in the parlor room so that she would see the state she was in before taking her to receive treatment.”
