"Why do you even care, anyways? You usually don't talk about him. Furthermore, the Young Master is gone and there's nothing you nor I can do about it." Meixiu said when her mother continued glaring at her like she did something wrong.

"Do you really not care about the Young Master? Did your feelings for him change after he became a cripple? I guess you're no different from the other maids— always filled with disdain towards him and forgetting who he used to be." Her mother shook her head.

Meixiu gritted her teeth after hearing her mother's words before shouting in a loud voice, "Don't compare me to those trash!"

"..."

Her mother remained a calm expression despite Meixiu's unexpected outburst— or maybe because she expected Meixiu's outburst that she didn't react. Regardless, she has always managed to break Meixiu's nonchalant appearance with ease.

"I see." Her mother said in a nonchalant voice before turning around and walking away.

"Follow me," she suddenly said.

Meixiu didn't say anything and followed her mother inside the house.

A few minutes later, they arrived in front of Yu Rou's room, something Meixiu expected when she saw the direction they were walking in.

Meixiu's mother knocked on the doors immediately after they arrived, and she proceeded to stand in front of the doors in a manner that reeked of professionalism.
