Chapitre 997: Chapter 991: Gossipy Woman_1

One might wonder why Qin Jiale assumed Xue Ling was sleeping instead of something else. It was because they had arrived very late the night before, leaving everyone exhausted. Moreover, they were strangers in the village. Based on these clues, she guessed that Xue Ling was still sleeping.

Upon hearing this, Qin Xue remembered that she hadn't yet brought Xue Ling out of her space. It was fortunate that her sister didn't go to her room to look for people, otherwise she would have been caught in her lie directly.

After sharing a look with Chu Molin, he reached out to take the child from Qin Xue's arms. If he held the child, his wife could return to her room and bring Xue Ling out.

"Xue'er, give the child to me. Go wake Xue Ling, it's already past noon and she's still not up, she won't be able to sleep tonight if she sleeps too much now." Chu Molin made up an excuse for Xue Ling. He did this to avoid any missteps his wife might make in speech.
