Nangong Xu was always somewhat worried.
In the grand manor of the illustrious family, it was indeed inscrutable—how could a young girl like Baili Xia possibly stay there properly by herself?

Since arriving at the ancestral hall yesterday afternoon, Mu Xiaojiu had been kneeling continuously, never once getting up.
Throughout this time, Wen Yu had come to visit several times, each time urging him to get up or to go have a meal, but he refused.
On Wen Yu's visits, she also brought water and food, but Mu Xiaojiu knew the way that person punished him.
While kneeling in the ancestral hall, he was not allowed to eat or drink, and he would not break these rules.
In this ancestral hall, he reflected on many things, including his responsibilities and his own feelings.
Such kneeling lasted for a day and a night.
