Da Zi is a protector of its own. Don’t look at these beasts ruling the forest during the day, even hurting people when they encounter them, but the loyalty of these beasts is far better than that of humans by many, many times.
When she learned the truth, it was because she knew that Dazi was with Mo Junyi that she didn’t faint from fright directly. At least in her heart, she still hoped that Dazi could protect him.
“Mother, rest assured, Da Zi is still well. I’m alive thanks to Da Zi.”

“That’s great, you’re all safe. That’s the most important thing.”
As she spoke, she couldn’t help but reach out and gently rub Mo Jun Yi’s head. “It’s mother who didn’t protect you well.”
At this moment, her eyes were filled with tenderness as she looked at Mo Junyi. This child was only 11 years old, and he had been hunted by his own father, and almost didn’t make it back after falling into the river. Anyone with a shred of humanity would feel compassion for him.
Furthermore, Mo Junyi is such an outstanding child. Such a smart and quick-witted child, Mo Yunchen, that bastard, doesn’t cherish him properly, and he even wants to kill him! He’s worse than an animal.
“Mother, you are so kind to me.”
“Because you deserve it,” An Xue Tang smiled at him, “Others don’t know how wonderful you are, but I do.”
Then she couldn’t help but ask, “You must have suffered a lot back then, right?”
After An Xue Tang asked, Mo Jun Yi pursed his lips, knowing that if he continued to conceal it, it would only make his mother worry and spoil him even more.
It’s better to just be honest now. After all, he’s safely back, and those dangers are over.
When it came to those life-or-death moments, he remained nonchalant.

As it turned out, it was Han Yun who had found him after his explanation. An Xuetang couldn’t help but feel relieved that she had helped Han Yun treat the festering wound on his abdomen shortly after arriving in the capital, saving his life.
At that time, Han Yun’s wound was already rotting. If she hadn’t dared to help him remove the rotten flesh and apply medicine daily to fight inflammation, Han Yun wouldn’t have survived given his condition.
It’s a good thing she acted swiftly and helped Han Yun recover well, allowing him to find and save Mo Junyi in time this one time.
Perhaps it is because she has had a child, but nowadays An Xuetang seems to be more sentimental than ever before.
Compared to her former coldness and indifference, she now shows a touch of humanity.
After hearing Mo Junyi’s experience, her eyes welled up with tears.
Afraid of being seen by Mo Junyi, she pursed her lips and turned her face away, closing her eyes and forcing the tears back.
Mo Junyi knew she was uncomfortable, his eyes darkened in a place he couldn’t see, and his heart ached.
She had only heard this much about the truth of the iceberg’s corner, and she was already so unacceptable. If she were to know that her husband was now missing and his life or death unknown.
Before falling off the cliff, she was seriously injured again… how could she accept this?
Mo Junyi dared not think, not at all.
Ning’er stood straight beside them. When she saw the opportunity, she took the initiative to step forward and said, “Your Highness, it’s late now. The Prince has been traveling by boat and carriage all day, he must be very tired. It’s better for him to go back first and have a good rest. There is no need to rush, we can wait until the Prince has rested before asking him any questions.”
Upon her reminder, An Xuetang only then recalled this point and quickly nodded in agreement, “Right, right. Tonight, Ziling, you should go back first and get a good rest. Since you’ve safely returned home, don’t think about anything else, just relax and sleep soundly.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Yun4’s voice rang out from outside the door, “Your Highness, the Young Master’s meal is ready.”
“Well then, have them bring it in.”
After she finished speaking, she looked at Mo Junyi, “Mother thinks you should eat first, what do you say?”
Upon seeing him again, she was struck by how much weight he had lost. It pained her greatly to see him so thin.
Mo Junyi smirked and nodded, with no reason to refuse at all. After all, he preferred spending time with her here, wishing that time would slow down just a little bit.
In a little while, Yun 4 personally brought the meal over. Mo Jun Yi was indeed hungry; he hadn’t eaten much along the way and had no appetite nor anything warm. He knew himself that he had lost some weight.
After the meal was served, An Xuetang passed him her chopsticks. “Eat it while it’s hot,” she said.
“Thank you, Mother.”
He also wanted to ask if they should eat together, but he immediately realized his mother was still in confinement and what went into her mouth couldn’t be too arbitrary.
An Xuetang saw through his thoughts and smiled, “Eat quickly, I can’t eat right now.”
“Hmm.”
1. She was hungry, 2. She ate to make herself feel better. So she began to eat right away.
Finally getting this mouthful of hot food, Mo Junyi’s drooping eyes gradually turned red. Indeed, there’s no place like home.
He didn’t speak while eating, nor did he speak when resting. No one present uttered a sound. An Xue Tang was responsible for serving him dishes, wishing with all her might that he could eat them.
However, my appetite has been poor these days, and I haven’t been eating much. Mo Junyi has tried his best to eat, but he still couldn’t finish much before feeling full.
Looking at An Xuetang putting the meat into his bowl, he awkwardly spoke, “Mother, I’m sorry, I can’t eat anymore.”
“It’s okay, it’s okay.”

An Xuetang was extremely unwilling to him apologizing like this all the time, and his attitude was so careful.
Before, her Zi Ling wasn’t like this. In just over a year, she suddenly felt that the dashing young man was gone, leaving her with an ache in her heart.
Seeing that he really couldn’t eat anymore, she quickly took the chopsticks from his hand and put them on the table, then 1faced him seriously and said:
“Mother still prefers the you from before. Tonight, seeing that you’ve just returned, Mother won’t hold past grievances against you. But if tomorrow you still act and behave this way, Mother will have to discipline you.”
Mo Jun Yi chuckled softly, “Yes, child understands.”
“Alright, let’s rest for now.”
An Xuetang was truly afraid that he would be worn out, so she quickly asked Yun 4 to take him back to rest.
After Yun Si and Mo Jun Yi left, An Xue Tang then instructed Ning’er to have someone clean out the empty rooms in this courtyard tomorrow.
She now lives in Jingtang Garden, which still has many vacant apartments, just none have been cleaned up yet.
The courtyard where Mo Junyi stayed tonight was quite a distance from Jingtang Garden. He had only just managed to return alive. During this period, An Xuetang wished she could keep him by her side at all times, watching him, as if that was the only way to ease her mind.
>&,
Although it was late, she didn’t make anyone work. She just thought, tomorrow morning she would have someone tidy the room up, and tonight let Mo Junyi stay in that courtyard for one night.
After giving the instructions, An Xuetang sat quietly in a chair, motionless and with a solemn expression.
Ninger and Shou’er, along with the others, looked at each other for a moment. None of them could guess what she was thinking.
