T/N: In this chapter, eating rice means living in vain or futility. It refers to living off others

Xiao Mingluo looks at his friend coldy. He can't speak. He flashes a look at Qilu that says he's done playing.

A part of Ling Hanyu dares not to persuade Han Qilu, but he secretly wants to help An Chuxia. When they ate lunch at the Han residence, Jiang Yuan asked them to watch out for An Chuxia at school to avoid trouble. Otherwise, she won't graduate with them.

Jiang Yuan and Han Qilu are so untouchable!

***

In the Han Hall, the atmosphere is not harmonious.

“I want you to come here so you can eat rice! You are useless! Did you actually take a good look at An Chuxia?"

Jiang Yuan's face is filled with anger as she stands in the middle of the hall, lecturing.

“I’m sorry, Madame, Miss Xia herself insisted on going to cla.s.s. She insisted not missing her first day at The Royal College." The maid lowers his head after responding.

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Yuan impatiently scolds. “You can't make a phone call to me?!"

The maid lowers his head further and continues, “Your cell phone has been shut down. Miss Xia also tried called you."

Jiang Yuan beats herself in the head. She forgot to turn on her phone after she finished!

“Where's steward Han?” Jiang Yuan clears her throat. She can't find reason to blame them.

“Madame, he left for Beijing to take that contract since the courier is too slow?” The maid slightly raises his head, puzzled that the mistress forgot.

“Forget it! Aren't you busy? Go.” Jiang Yuan continues to take a few deep breaths. She hates how they did not call someone else to take the contract. But then, if it was another, she'd be worrying… .

Four o'clock arrives and the other maids are ready to serve dinner. There is no answer on her phone. She hesitates to shut it down. She doesn't know what to say.

The maid notices Jiang Yuan staring at the mobile phone. She wonders what happened.

“Are you hoping Miss Xia would have a few words with you?” The maid quickly asks.

“Soon,” Jiang Yuan wishes urgently. In fact, she doesn't know why her child isn't easy on An Chuxia. Is it because of her independent character and stubbornness which is much like his? It's not clear.

She concludes that maybe, her son hates his mother because she'll go to the ends of the earth to save Liu Hai. She loves Qilu and Liu Hai, even if all they do is shout at each other. But if Liuhai really disappears, she is afraid she can not live.

“Miss Xia says she's grateful to you for taking care of her, but she wants to be able to rely on her own efforts to get into a good university, so she would try to stay with what she can afford."

This means she has to hope she will not stop going to school.

“This child distresses me. I forget when school lets out, so have Han Qilu pick her up from school. Yes, Han Qilu, that b.a.s.t.a.r.d.” Jiang Yuan instructs the maid.

The maid bows his head and replies, “Master and young masters Xiao and Ling are in Atlantis."

“b.a.s.t.a.r.ds!” She grabs a candy and throws it hard against the floor. “Call him back!"

“Yes.” The maid runs to make the phone call.

Pressing the end call the key, Han Qilu impatiently gets up. “I'm leaving first."

Mo Xinwei also stands up and alertly asks, “Was that An Chuxia on the phone?"

Although Han Qilu seems to be very annoyed with An Chuxia, he finds it heartbreaking to see Mo Xinwei torturing her.

Finally, he manages to make her leave the Han residence. Who knows where she is? She left willingly. Her departure has become insidious.

“No! That was my maid.” He responds to Mo Xinwei's question. However, he looks helplessly around him.

Mo Xinwei relentlessly asks, “Can I go back with you to see aunt?"

“Miss Mo Xinwei, you should call her Aunt Jiang, rather than aunt.” Xiao Mingluo stares down the goblet, his face ‘sincere’. His heart silently curses her, "Villain, be wise!"

Seeing that Han Qilu doesn't care to answer her, Mo Xinwei rushes to the door and hurriedly catches up to him. She pulls his arm and asks, “Are the rumors true? Is An Chuxia your fiancée?"

Her eyes are full of urgency. She is eager to know the answer.

He stares at her for a long time before pulling her hand away. From the start, he didn't know how to answer Mo Xinwei's question. Obviously, he could just answer yes or no. But he doesn't know why he cannot answer anything.

Ling Hanyu is pleased to see her so desperate. Really, An Chuxia is more pleasing to the eye compared to Mo Xinwei!

“Go, a.s.shole, we should also go home.” Xiao Mingluo puts down the gla.s.s as he grabs Ling Hanyu's attention.

As they exit Atlantis, they realize the weather has changed. The sky is now gloomy and overcast. Lightning flashes on the distant clouds from time to time. The winds blowing indicate heavy rain is coming.

Xiao Mingluo drove the sports car. He looks up at the sky and says, "Fortunately, we're leaving early. Otherwise, the car would've been rained on with the top down."

At Han Hall, the atmosphere is very mundane.

“What? Your flight from Beijing is delayed due to the weather? How can this work?!” Jiang Yuan shouts over the phone to steward Han.

It is now impossible to get the EMS contract in before the 30th. It looks like it'll be completed after.

“Forget it, just come home immediately! Just get a little gift from Beijing and give it to my friend for helping.” She frowns as she hangs up the phone.

This isn't the cause of her distress, of course.

“Isn't there's three days before the thirtieth? EMS can do it,” Han Liuhai says to Jiang Yuan as he sits on the sofa watching TV. “Don't blame steward Han. The flight delay is not his fault "

“I know I know.” Jiang Yuan takes a grape and stuffs her mouth. “Can't I be allowed to be anxious?"

“I'm back.” A tired Han Qilu takes off his coat and hands it to the waiting maid.

“Are you back with xiao Xia?” Jiang Yuan looked behind the Han Qilu. Qilu glances back and calls for her. She receives no answer.

“What happened to xiao An Chuxia?” Looking puzzled, Han Qilu asks, “She's not upstairs resting?"

From the outside, as the thunder boomed very loudly, Jiang Yuan yells at Han Qilu spiritedly. “Don't tell me you did not pick her up!!!"

Cold wind blows … .
