Upon hearing it was about studying, Zhuang Mengdie instantly lost her interest. Although she loved her brother, she was more afraid of doing homework.

"I... I...I feel a bit dizzy, probably from the heat, I'll go back to my room to rest, you go do your homework!"

Having said that, Zhuang Mengdie ran off in a hurry.

Zhuang Yuexi went to the Duke's courtyard.

The servants were surprised to see her come over.

"You all can step back." She ordered with a cool voice.

"But master has ordered..." One of the maidservants murmured in a low voice.

Another maidservant, eyeing the situation, tugged at her sleeve and said to Zhuang Yuexi, "Yes, we'll retreat."

The two stepped aside, and Zhuang Yuexi walked into the courtyard and into the Duke's bedroom.

The physician had finished treating his injuries and had gone to the small kitchen to decoct a medicine for him. Only a personal servant remained by the bed.

"You can leave too." Zhuang Yuexi ordered.

The servant didn't dare to move.
