Even the old man and the Normanis couple were serving her food.
"Child, since you are Elder Jian's granddaughter, don't feel burdened. Consider this your own home."
The warmth of this family made Jian You even more uncomfortable. The old man was never like this; he was always cold to her every day. When she went out, he barely checked on her and never let her interact much with outsiders.
So, even the hand holding the chopsticks was stiff. She soon noticed something and turned her head to look aside. Indeed, there was a seat, but it was empty.
"Zi Yue said she doesn't want to eat. We'll eat first and have someone send it to her later."
Upon hearing Yao Qianya's words, the old lady became angry, "Look at how you spoil her. She's been out for days, and now she doesn't even come for meals. What do you think she'll want to do next?!"
Normanis immediately quipped, "Don't you have your share in this?"
The old lady was choked, and immediately speechless. They only had this one granddaughter in the family. Could they not spoil her a little? If they could find that child, she wouldn't be so unreasonable.
What followed was a meal filled with laughter and chatter. Jian You didn't know that usually, the dining table was very quiet, but it was all to ease her nervousness.
When the old lady put down her chopsticks, Jian You immediately excused herself and left. She didn't know how to handle these unfamiliar things. Sitting there was torture, so it was better to go back and grind the weapons she stole from the old man a couple more times.
"This child is polite, which is rare."
At first, she had a prejudice against this girl Jian You because of Zi Yue. Coupled with Jian You's unclear relationship with Aman, she had even more opinions. However, it was only after she learned that Jian You was Elder Jian's granddaughter that she began to take her seriously.
Logically speaking, she had just been found and no one had taught her. It was not hard to see that some of her upbringing was etched in her bones, which allowed her to know how to advance and retreat even after forgetting.
It seemed Mom was also quite satisfied with Jian You. It was rare for someone to be liked by their entire family.
Before long, Normanis also walked out of the dining room, then went to the kitchen to pick up the meals that the servants had prepared in advance and took them to the third floor.
When he reached the door of Norman Zi Yue's room, he gently knocked twice with his knuckles, then spoke, "Zi Yue, it's me. Open the door."
Norman Zi Yue, who was rolling around in annoyance on the large bed, still walked to the door in her slippers upon hearing the sound.
"Click~"
As soon as the door opened, she saw Normanis holding the food and personally handing it to her.
"Eat first."
Norman Zi Yue thought of something she had realized in S City, and tears immediately welled up in her eyes. She had been immature. Her parents had protected her so well, and now she was making them worry.
She was truly not a good daughter, yet they had always been good parents!
Norman Zi Yue suddenly stepped forward and hugged Normanis. He quickly moved the food away and then patted her back with his other free hand.
"Tell Dad if anything is wrong. Dad will always be behind you."
Norman Zi Yue nodded heavily, took the food, and started eating, "Dad's cooking is always delicious!"
Normanis watched her with amusement, reached out and gently wiped the corner of her mouth, "Eat slowly, no one is snatching it from you! If you want to eat, Dad will bring it to you again."
Norman Zi Yue immediately shook her head, mumbling vaguely with her mouth full, "Dad's hands should be directing the country, not serving food!"
"You, you, eat first, don't choke."
Normanis's wish was simple: to have a loving partner and happy children. This was his life's pursuit. So, at this moment, seeing Norman Zi Yue eating happily, he felt very satisfied.
After eating, Normanis had the plates taken away while he looked at the little girl who had eaten her fill and was rubbing her belly without speaking.
"Dad, why are you looking at me? I'm fine."
How could Normanis believe the little girl's words? Since he was here, he wouldn't leave without an explanation.
As time passed, Norman Zi Yue couldn't stand it anymore and finally spoke, looking down at her shoelaces, "I saw some unpleasant things in S City, and it still makes me feel a little upset when I think about it."
Half true and half false, her words were not wrong, but there was concealment!
This was what Normanis saw from her behavior. However, he knew that since this girl didn't want to talk, he wouldn't be able to get anything out of her. So, he just rubbed Norman Zi Yue's hair,
"Don't think too much. Dad is not kept at home to be looked at, okay?"
Norman Zi Yue immediately burst into tears and looked up at the man, "Dad, you are kept at home to be looked at, to be looked at by me and Mom. It's too much of a waste for someone as good-looking as you not to be seen!"
"Zi Yue."
Norman Zi Yue finally stopped joking, her expression becoming serious, "Dad, I'm really fine."
Normanis looked at his watch and nodded slightly, "Mm, if anything happens, be sure to tell Dad. Dad has to go back to work. You should exercise after eating."
After escorting her to her room, Norman Zi Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief. She had just called her father handsome, and she could also think of that man. She was really crazy.
The next day, early in the morning, a person arrived at the castle.
"Nian Zhi, you're here, please sit!"
Yao Qianya, dressed neatly, came downstairs and saw the person sitting on the sofa. She immediately greeted them warmly and sat down on the sofa herself. Two cups of steaming tea were already placed on the table.
"Aunt Qian, you don't need to be so polite. I'm here to see Zi Yue, is she here?"
This person was Fan Nian Zhi, whom they had met in A City before. Upon learning that Norman Zi Yue had returned, she had also returned. The two families were relatively close, so they were playmates who grew up together.
Aunt Yao Qian naturally knew that she was looking for Zi Yue, so she said directly, "She's still sleeping upstairs. You can go find her."
After Fan Nian Zhi left, Normanis walked in from outside. Yao Qianya went forward and adjusted his clothes, "Why are you still exercising in such cold weather? Just take a break for a while."
Normanis held the hand adjusting his collar and led her inside, "You can't give up halfway when you're doing something."
Alright, alright, you're right. Wasn't she just worried about him?
Normanis paused and continued, "Besides, if Jian You can get up, I can't fall behind."
Yao Qianya immediately stopped and looked worried, "She hasn't recovered yet..."
"Don't worry, I'm only letting her do some simple movements, and I have people watching her. That girl is probably thinking about me right now, hehe."
How troublesome. She didn't even finish her sentence and made her worry for nothing. Yao Qianya let go of his hand and walked towards the kitchen, telling them to prepare more food.
Meanwhile, Fan Nian Zhi directly opened the door and saw Norman Zi Yue sleeping like a log!
