Lady Hou sank to the ground in disappointment, sobbing softly.
Hou Tianbao was so frightened he remained stunned for a good while before coming to his senses.

Lady Hou, her heart aching for her son, finally dabbed at her tears and, with the help of her maid, climbed to her feet.

Lady Hou gave a cold laugh and said, "Just tell her my son has taken his medicine and is asleep. Tell her to leave!"
She truly didn't want to see that vexing woman for even a moment.
However, the words had barely left her mouth when Aunt Mei entered uninvited, a gift box in her hands.
