Bab 784: What Happened to Shiting?

Qianfan Villa.

Ye Shengge was alone at the dining table.

Sister Xiu had been keeping Ji Shiting's instructions in mind, so there was a large variety of food on the table but only a small serving of each dish.

Ye Shengge put down her chopsticks and leaned against the chair, taking a deep breath.

"Are you full, Young Madam?" Sister Xiu asked with a smile.

Ye Shengge nodded and mumbled, "It's been twenty-three days…"

Sister Xiu was stunned for a bit before realizing that Ye Shengge was referring to the number of days since Ji Shiting had left home.

"Don't worry, Young Madam. Young Master will be back soon," Sister Xiu comforted her.

"He hasn't called me in a long time," Ye Shengge said, sounding aggrieved. "If he doesn't come back soon, he might not even make it in time for the labor."

"Why would that be the case?" Sister Xiu smiled. "Young Master wouldn't want to miss it."
