Chapter 229 Dear Mrs. Ye

The pillowcase was all wet, but Li Xueqing couldn't bother changing it now.

She flipped over and stood up, pretending she had been leaning there all along, and Li Xueqing adjusted herself in the mirror, answering softly, "Come in..."

"Mom, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Ye Li entered, examining her mother with a concerned gaze.

Her spirits seemed not too bad, but her complexion was off, as if she hadn't slept well all night.

Her eyes were somewhat swollen, as if... she had been crying?

"Mom, if you're feeling unwell, tell me. I promise, I'll take care of you even better than Dad did."

Speaking softly, Ye Li washed her hands quickly, sat by the bed, and began massaging Li Xueqing's arm from her fingers.

She had only pressed a few times when Li Xueqing laughed, shook off her hand, and pulled her to sit on the bed's edge. "Mom's fine. It's just... I dreamt about your father last night."

Ye Li's heart skipped a beat.
