"Don't you usually keep an eye on her? Where did you go today?" he asked.

"Ayi was already here. I came with dad and my brother, so if anyone's to blame, it should be my brother," I responded.

"Alright, as long as you're fine, dad is relieved. I'll go check on Ayi," he said.

"Okay, I'll go have a look at her too," I offered.

"No need for you to go. What help could you possibly be?" he dismissed.

"I can rub Ayi's belly," I suggested.

"You might end up making her throw up," he joked.

While Zong Ji and Meng Xin Zhi were talking, Nie Guangyi stood a few steps away, making a phone call.

Zong Guang happened to overhear Nie Guangyi asking someone to brew hawthorn and malt tea just as he walked over.

Just hearing the name, you knew it was meant for someone who had overeaten.

This phone call, along with the previously overheard night conversation in the bamboo grove,

added a bit more relief to Zong Guang's heart.
