Chapter 337: Xiao Ruiyuan's Anger and Unexpected News (2)_1

```

Mo Yan's mind raced with all sorts of guesses in the blink of an eye, each one impossible for him to accept.

The contented Maomao, who had been closing its eyes and enjoying being stroked, pecked at his hand in frustration, signaling him to concentrate.

Xiao Ruiyuan came back to his senses, his breath chilling as he tossed Maomao aside. Trying to console himself or for some other reason, he came up with a dignified excuse for why Mo Yan hadn't replied to his letter: "She must have been delayed by something important and didn't have time to reply. Just go back now, and if there's no reply, don't bother coming back."

The poor Maomao had been subjected to his master's anger. It let out an unpleasant sharp scream, as it came to complain, not to be scolded.
