This era wasnt as liberal as the ones to come.
However, for a woman to spontaneously offer to wash a mans clothing, the innuendo is evident.
Moreover, Mo Baichuan was known for his aloof demeanor.
Though, the popular phrase aloof wasnt prevalent yet in that time.
Most would describe a man like Mo Baichuan as solitary and proud.
Mo Baichuan always kept to himself, never letting any woman get too close, yet Li Xianxian felt she was an exception.
Being the only female assistant by Mo Baichuans side.
She was the object of envy amongst all employees.
Besides, she has a lot to be proud of.
She was young, beautiful, intelligent, knew how to watch her step and when to advance or retreat. She stood out from the crowd. And she was personally chosen by the Mo Family. Although they never explicitly said so, Li Xianxian saw herself as the future matriarch of the Mo Family, and the prospective wife of Mo Baichuan.
Furthermore, she was confident that Mo Baichuan held affections for her as well. It was just that societal norms made it unseemly for him to express his feelings. Since Mo Baichuan was too shy to voice his feelings, she felt she had to make the first move.
Frowning coolly, Mo Baichuan declined, No need, you may return.
He was only 26, still in his prime. But his family was in a hurry, fearing that hed end up as a bachelor.
Li Xianxian was foisted upon him by his father and grandfather under the guise of work.
Outside of work, he never gave Li Xianxian any inappropriate signals.
The perfect partner in his mind didnt have to be the prettiest but certainly had to be the one he loved.
This brought to mind the word love.
The face that emerged in his mind was distinctively fun yet gorgeous.
Such a young girl already possessed qualities that could make men lose their senses. Unfortunately, she was already taken by an unknown older man!
Reflecting on this, Mo Baichuan quickly shook himself out of his reverie.
What was he doing, thinking of that young girl out of the blue?
Upon hearing his words, instead of leaving, Li Xianxian moved a step closer to Mo Baichuan, her face slightly red, her voice flirtatious, Theres no need to be embarrassed, Mr. Mo. Its my job to
Mo Baichuans face chilled even further and he took a step back, Miss. Li Xianxian, please respect yourself!
Mr. Mo Li Xianxian drew out her words, attempting to pull on Mo Baichuans sleeve.
But Mo Baichuan didnt give her a chance.
He quickly pulled away his arm, sternly warning, Li Xianxian, always remember your position! Should you overstep any boundaries, report to the logistics department tomorrow!
Li Xianxian was recommended by his father and grandfather, if he sent her to logistics, it would be a slap to their faces, questioning their ability to judge character. Thus, Mo Baichuan couldnt make such a move yet.
Upon hearing this, Li Xianxian looked at him in disbelief.
How can this be?
She thought she had seen a hint of disgust in Mo Baichuans eyes!
Mo Baichuan clearly liked her too!
Could it be her imagination?
However, this was the office after all, a very serious place. It probably wouldnt be suitable for Mo Baichuan, a man in a position of power, to openly express his feelings here. Therefore, Mo Baichuan mustve repressed his feelings because he had to maintain his dignity.
Thinking along these lines, Li Xianxian started to feel better.
Looking at Mo Baichuan, she sincerely said, Mr. Mo, I understand my mistake! There wont be a next time!

Over here.
The Mo Family.
Old Lady Mo, filled with sorrow, was sitting in a very warmly decorated bedroom, where the air was thick with the smell of medicine.
On the pink princess bed, lay a young girl, barely thirteen or fourteen.
The girls face was as white as snow, with her lips becoming paper-white. Looking at Old Lady Mo, she comforted wisely, Granny, dont worry, I dont feel any pain, really no pain.
Despite her words of no pain, her voice was incredibly weak and feeble.
Due to bedridden years, her body barely had any weight.
Upon hearing this, Old Lady Mo fought back her tears and smiled. Dont worry. Granny is not worried at all. Our Xiaodie will recover soon. This little sickness is nothing.
Mhm. Mo Hudie nodded, I will definitely get better.
Although Mo Hudie was not very old, her mind was extremely mature. She knew that her days were numbered.
In fact, it might be better to die quickly, than to live.
Every minute she lived now was filled with tormenting pain; it was unbearable!
Yet, to prevent Granny from worrying, she never admitted the pain.
The departure of her mother had already dealt a severe blow to Granny. She could not cause her grandmother to endure the pain of losing a loved one again. Therefore, she had been actively cooperating with the treatments, not letting go of any chance to survive.
It had been five years, lying in bed.
She really tried, tried hard to survive.
But now, she really couldnt hold on any longer
With the help of sleeping pills, Mo Hudie fell into an uneasy sleep. Even in her dreams, her brows frowned tightly.
One could only imagine the bone-crushing pain she was enduring.
At this moment, Old Lady Mo finally could not control her emotions and started to cry softly.
Her daughter had already left
No matter what, she had to keep hold of the only bloodline left in the world by her daughter.
Otherwise, she would have no face to meet her daughter in the afterlife.
After crying, Old Lady Mo went to the living room, made a call, and said, Tell Divine Doctor Li that as long as he can cure Xiaodie, our Mo Family will meet all his demands.

The Wang Family.
Yang Guobao was chasing a big rooster around the yard.
Grandma was telling her daughter, Wang Meifeng, what happened on the river beach this afternoon.
Listening, Wang Meifeng felt a cold chill. As Yang Guobaos mother, she knew her sons condition well. She knew that in such a situation, if Ni Yang didnt stop her mother and take prompt rescue measures, she might not have seen her son this lively today
Thinking of this, Wang Meifeng was filled with lingering fear.
Mom, we must thank that girl properly. Where does she live? Take me to her quickly!
Grandma frowned slightly, Are you saying that this girl, Yangyang, is really quite capable?
Even now, Grandma still held doubts about Ni Yang, considering her intervention as nothing more than her good luck.
Of course! Wang Meifeng continued, If we sent Guobao to the Health Clinic today as you suggested, I might not be able to see Guobao right now! Mom, youve really met a noble person today!
Grandma looked at Wang Meifeng, recalling the words Ni Yang said in the afternoon, and said, Meifeng, that girl also said that her family has been practicing medicine for generations and she has a cure for Guobaos disease.
Originally, Grandma didnt take this matter seriously, but seeing her daughter praising Ni Yang so highly, she decided to mention it.
When she heard these words, Wang Meifeng exclaimed excitedly: Mom, are you serious?
