In the days that followed, Gu Qiangwei stayed at Jueyuan to recuperate.
With Li Yuan's meticulous care, she gradually recovered, her mood included.
After the onset of autumn, the weather cooled down, with several bouts of fall rain that made sunny days a rarity.
Having been bedridden for the better part of a month, Gu Qiangwei felt almost moldy. Seeing the pleasant weather outside, she decided to take Mengqi for a walk on the road after breakfast.
Sometimes, she thought living in such a luxurious villa wasn't all that great, such as when other people walked their dogs in parks while she walked hers alone, with only Mengqi for company, on the deserted serpentine mountain road…
The feeling was not very pleasing.
"Mengqi, or… should we just go back?"
Gu Qiangwei turned her head to look at Mengqi, who also hadn't been outside for a long time.
