Chapter 280: The Sect Leader Wakes Up Grumpy Every Day (28)

Shen Mubai looked bewildered, rubbing her sore buttocks, then looked around and realized she was in Jun Jiuling’s room.

Thinking of what happened last night, she quickly understood that she must have fallen asleep and been carried here by accident.

With no explanation at hand and no intention from Jun Jiuling to offer her an opportunity to explain, he directly grabbed her neck, coldly sneering, “Are you figuring out a suitable excuse?”

His long, powerful hand restrained her throat, and with intense murderous intent, Shen Mubai’s face turned pale, her eyelashes trembling. Just as she felt like she was about to die, Jun Jiuling suddenly released her.

Shen Mubai grabbed her throat, coughing violently and breathing heavily. “Cough… cough…”

Jun Jiuling stared at her intently, his deep eyes momentarily contracting. He turned away, his tone icy. “Get out; I don’t want to see you today.”

Weakly, Shen Mubai responded, then retreated.

After she left, Jun Jiuling, standing in place, seemed to realize something, furrowing his brow slightly.

After coming out, Shen Mubai asked the system, “Is there still hope for Jun Jiuling’s illness?”

The system replied, “It may be possible, but it may not be cured for the rest of his life.”

Shen Mubai was speechless; there was no difference between what was said and what wasn’t. This crappy system.

The reason she didn’t explain the truth to Jun Jiuling was that if she did, she might die even faster. Jun Jiuling was afflicted with a demonic ailment, and in the daytime, his temperament was unpredictable. Who knew if revealing his scar would prompt him to kill her immediately.

Shen Mubai sighed, realizing she had been careless last night.

“Cuihua, so you’re here.” You Yi walked over, holding his hungry belly, complaining, “Where did you go? I’m starving.”

Shen Mubai felt guilty, so she coughed and said, “I had diarrhea.”

You Yi asked with concern, “Are you okay?” Then he realized, “Wait, but this is clearly the way to the leader’s bedroom.”

Shen Mubai feared he might figure it out, so she quickly changed the subject: “What do you want to eat today?”

At the mention of food, You Yi wiped the drool from his mouth. “Anything will do: meat patties, rice porridge, lamb soup, beef sauce…”

Since Jun Jiuling had said he didn’t want to see her, Shen Mubai had a relaxed day. While bathing in the evening, she even sang happily.

She flopped onto the bed, happily rolling around. After a while, she fell into a deep sleep.

And then she was awakened in the middle of the night.

Rubbing her eyes, Shen Mubai yawned and went to the kitchen, skillfully preparing something delicious for Jun Jiuling.

Jun Jiuling obediently followed behind her.

Shen Mubai was very vigilant today, afraid that she might fall asleep while listening, so she occasionally stood up and moved around.

Jun Jiuling thought she was playing, so he imitated her, and the two of them looked like fools walking around the kitchen.

Zuo Yi, hiding in the dark, acted as if he hadn’t seen anything and turned away.

Shen Mubai didn’t know there were still eyes in the dark. Seeing that it was almost time, she said to Jun Jiuling, “I’m going back to sleep.”

Jun Jiuling’s eyes sparkled slightly. “Bai Bai, are you sleepy?”
