We’ll take our leave,\" Wei Bei said as they exited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the door closed, Ye Jiuliang chuckled, \"Your men are quite interesting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of them had a talent for making people laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What would you like to eat?\" Li Mochan wrapped an arm around her, glancing at the dishes on the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Bei had prepared dinner for two, three dishes and one soup, a generous spread indeed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Anything is fine, eat up, I can help myself,\" Ye Jiuliang said as she came out of his embrace and sat cross-legged on the carpet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She ladled some soup into a bowl and handed it to him, \"Drink up quickly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan looked down at the soup in the bowl, his thin lips slightly curved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the dim yellow light, the crisp sound of bowls and utensils clinking occasionally broke the silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, the knocking on the door became urgent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan said, \"Come in.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person knocking was Wei Nan, who glanced at Ye Jiuliang’s location with a hesitancy in his gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You two talk; I’ll step out,\" Ye Jiuliang said, standing up, seeing his reluctance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan caught her hand, not letting her leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked up at Wei Nan, not minding Ye Jiuliang’s presence, \"Speak.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, several people from the Brooke party have sneaked in over the back wall of the manor,\" said Wei Nan.\u003C\u002Fp>",1374,"2026-05-30T05:18:55.761Z","2026-06-01T04:30:24.264Z",1,"novelbin.me","60ad14f12d86b21fabd3d6a3b323e8e02fa8c065bbf2474837606f508ff11d4a","the-lady-of-the-prestigious-family-is-a-big-boss-chapter-243","the-lady-of-the-prestigious-family-is-a-big-boss-chapter-241",877,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-lady-of-the-prestigious-family-is-a-big-boss-cover.jpg"]
