Mu Ru happily turned around and ran towards the kitchen. She took out her insulated lunch box and poured out the dish. It was actually still a little warm, but she was afraid that it was not warm enough. She poured it into the pot and heated it for another two minutes.

She poured it into a porcelain bowl and carried it to Dongfang Mo. She squatted down and raised the porcelain bowl in front of him.

"Try it. If you like it, I'll make it for you more often in the future," she said.

Dongfang Mo took the chopsticks with his hand. He frowned and picked up a piece of the meat. He put it into his mouth and took a small bite. It was crisp on the outside but soft on the inside. It was indeed very delicious.

He was about to take another bite when he saw the bracelet on Mu Ru's wrist. His face instantly darkened.

"I never saw you wear anything before. Where did you get that bracelet?" he asked.

"Oh, my mother gave it to me today," Mu Ru answered casually.

Mu Ru looked at the bracelet on her wrist. It was dark green in color. It was an ancient jade, and her mother had worn it for a long time.

"I don't like that color," Dongfang Mo said.

Dongfang Mo's voice was cold and stiff. At the same time, he put down the chopsticks. It was obvious that he had lost his appetite.

"I'll take it off immediately. I won't wear it anymore," Mu Ru said.

Mu Ru put the bowl aside and tried to remove the bracelet. However, she found it quite difficult because the bracelet was a little tight.

Dongfang Mo glanced at Uncle Liu, as if to tell him that he could leave. Uncle Liu nodded and pushed the wheelchair towards the passageway behind him.

By the time Mu Ru had taken off the bracelet, Dongfang Mo was long gone from the hall. Mu Ru stared into the porcelain bowl at the piece of meat, which Dongfang Mo had merely taken a bite of. It looked as lonely as she did.

She sighed softly and brought the bowl into the kitchen. Seeing the disappointment on her face, Mother Liu quickly comforted her.

"Don't be sad. It's actually a good thing. Eldest Young Master never ate other people's food. He has actually honored you by trying what you brought for him," she said to Mu Ru.

Hearing Mother Liu's words, Mu Ru felt slightly happy again. She nodded to Mother Liu.

"Thank you, Mother Liu. I will continue to work hard. Mo will accept me sooner or later," Mu Ru said.

"Young Madam, you are so kind."

As Mother Liu spoke, she handed Mu Ru a bowl of lily and red date porridge.

"Young Madam, have a bowl of porridge and go upstairs to rest. It's getting late."

Mu Ru nodded. Actually, she wasn't that hungry, but the porridge looked so appetizing that she suddenly felt hungry. Besides, it was prepared by Mother Liu. She didn't want to make Mother Liu unhappy by rejecting the food she offered.

Fortunately, Mother Liu had not poured a large serving into the bowl, so Mu Ru was able to consume it without feeling bloated. She thanked Mother Liu and went upstairs in a good mood.

With what she had experienced during the previous nights, she immediately locked the door after she entered her room. She carefully checked and fastened the windows. She made sure that the room was very safe. Only then did she go to the bathroom to take a shower, change into pajamas, and climb into bed to sleep.

She wasn't sure if it was because she felt relieved or because the lily and red date porridge had a calming effect. She soon fell into a deep sleep.

However, she didn't know how long she had slept before she was awakened again.

She opened her eyes in a daze and with great difficulty. She felt pain coming from the depths of her body. The room was pitch black, and she felt a large hand groping her body.
