Although they had only stayed at the Imperial Court villa for a week, they did not have a lot of luggage, but it was not very little either.
Especially recently, Su Wanwan almost brought a pile of gifts every day, some for her, but most of them were for Little Nuonuo.
Packing up really wasn't that quick.
“Let's do this,” Xiao Yebai said, “If you're worried, I can drive back and call a couple more people to help, so it would be faster.”
“I'll go back with you,” Mo Weiyi truly was not reassured, mainly because she was worried her son would wake up and easily cry if he couldn't find her.
“No need,” Xiao Yebai said, “You didn't sleep well last night, go inside and rest for a bit.”
Mo Weiyi was indeed still tired, “Okay then.”
As Xiao Yebai turned around, she added, “Oh, and if Nuonuo cries, give me a call.”
“Got it.”
After Xiao Yebai drove off, Mo Weiyi entered the villa.
Hearing the noise, Auntie Zhou came out from the living room. Her eyes lit up in surprise when she saw it was Mo Weiyi, “Princess, why have you come back at this time…”
She looked behind her, “Where's Young Master Xiao?”
Mo Weiyi smiled placidly, “He went back to move the luggage.”
“Moving luggage?” Auntie Zhou widened her eyes, “You mean, you guys are planning to move back here?”
Mo Weiyi nodded.
“Oh my, that's really great!” Auntie Zhou was so excited she was beside herself, “Princess, don't worry, leave the young master to me. I guarantee to take good care of him, make sure he grows up healthy. And, I'll go clean up your rooms right away.”
“Auntie Zhou, don't bother,” Mo Weiyi hastily said, “We still have more luggage coming over, we'll clean up together later.”
“That works,” Auntie Zhou said, “Then I'll go to the market now and buy more groceries to make a delicious dinner for you tonight.”
Facing such enthusiasm from the elderly lady, Mo Weiyi could not stop her, so she let her do as she wished.
“Oh, princess,” as Auntie Zhou dragged her shopping cart, she suddenly added, “Do you want to check out the nursery?”
The nursery?
Mo Weiyi asked, “Is it all set up already?”
“Not yet, it's only halfway done, but it's almost there,” Auntie Zhou said, putting down the cart and enthusiastically pushing the door open.
Mo Weiyi walked over and her eyes lit up.
The last time she came, this was just a guest room, and Xiao Yebai had stuffed all the toys he bought into it.
But now…
The floor was covered with a soft mat featuring a blue planet pattern, the wallpaper was a lighter shade of powder blue, and the room was fitted with cabinets, with figurines and toys from left to right. At first glance, besides Nuonuo's favorite Ultraman, there were Spiderman, the Hulk, Captain America… and various models of planes, tanks, and toy cars.
The children's bed also had blue bedding, decorated with many plush toys and pillows, with a folding child's stroller by the bed, along with several children's bikes, including tricycles and even those he couldn't yet ride…
In the corner of the room, there were several unopened boxes of Lego toys, sorted categorically with everything included.
“Princess, isn't it beautiful?” Auntie Zhou asked from the side.
Mo Weiyi nodded.
Because Nuonuo was a boy, the room, although pinkish, was not overly so, especially the toys, which clearly had a lot of thought put into them…
“Young Master Xiao did the decorations himself.”
Hearing this, Mo Weiyi was startled, “He did the decorating?”
“Yes, didn't Young Master Xiao tell you?” Auntie Zhou said with a smile, “A few days ago, he and Mr. Zhan brought back a pile of stuff, and then every day after work, he would stay up late working here, not letting me help at all. He really decorated everything by himself.”
Mo Weiyi was genuinely surprised.
She had thought that Xiao Yebai might have had someone buy these things and then arrange them, but she hadn't expected him to do the decorating himself.
“Young Master Xiao really loves Nuonuo. Look at these cars; it probably still will be a couple of years before they can be used. He bought them ahead of time. There are even more piled up in the storage room. Besides, he said this is the first floor's toy room, and upstairs there's another separate children's bedroom. But I guess the young master is still too young to sleep alone for a while.”
Mo Weiyi nodded, “I'll go upstairs and take a look.”
Auntie Zhou, smiling radiantly, “Princess, take your time. I'll go out and do the shopping now.”
“Okay.”
When she reached the upstairs, Mo Weiyi directly pushed open the door to the room where Xiao Yebai had previously stayed.
The secondary bedroom had been transformed into a children's bedroom, essentially the same color scheme as downstairs. The children's bed was bigger and wider than the one downstairs, with safety rails installed on both sides.
Beyond that, there was an added bookshelf in the room, filled with children's picture books, educational materials for mental development, and even…
Mo Weiyi looked at the titles:
“How to Train your Children's Logical Thinking Ability”, “How to Cultivate Children's Independence”, “Ten Essential Elements for Developing Child Character”, “Follow These Steps, and You Can Also Become a Top Scorer's Parent”…
“Are you sure this isn't misplaced?”
…
She came back downstairs.
Except for the two children's rooms, the entire villa was no different from when she had left three years ago; it seemed as if time hadn't changed anything.
Mo Weiyi stood there for a while, suddenly recalling the doctor's words.
She walked directly into the study.
She hadn't visited the study during her last visit, and now at a glance, there was almost no difference, typically decorated in cool tones, the desk was very tidy.
The laptop on the desk was on, she touched the mouse, and the screen lit up.
Mo Weiyi thought for a moment and took out her phone to call Xiao Yebai.
After a few rings, the call connected, and a man's deep, pleasant voice came through, “What's up?”
Mo Weiyi asked him, “What's the password for your study's computer?”
“What happened?”
“I want to check the surveillance videos you installed.” Mo Weiyi pursed her lips, “If it's inconvenient, never mind, I'll look when you come back.”
“The password is 0518,” Xiao Yebai quickly said.
Mo Weiyi responded with an “Oh,” “Got it.”
“Your birthday.”
Mo Weiyi said “Oh” again.
She was just about to hang up the phone.
“Weiyi.” Xiao Yebai suddenly called out.
“What is it?”
“My phone too, I've changed it to your birthday for the password,” Xiao Yebai said.
“Got it.”
After hanging up the phone, Mo Weiyi pursed her red lips.
She couldn't deny that because of these words, the corners of her mouth involuntarily wanted to curve upward…
Coughing twice, she immediately entered the password and turned on the computer screen.
There were several folders on the desktop, all work-related.
Mo Weiyi glanced over them and found a folder named in English for the videos, clicked and opened it.
Inside were densely packed surveillance video files named by date.
She opened the video of the earliest date from the bedroom surveillance and began to watch.
It was much as she had guessed, Xiao Yebai would come back to the bedroom every day and either read or play with his dog before going to sleep.
But then in the middle of the night, he would suddenly wake up.
After waking, he would either sit quietly doing nothing or desperately smoke and drink; after a while, he would get up, shower, dress, and leave.
He would return around seven in the morning, take a bath, change clothes, and then go downstairs for breakfast.
After fast-forwarding through everything, Mo Weiyi turned off the video.
She was just about to check other surveillance when a notification for a new email popped up in the bottom right corner.
It seemed to be an automatically logged-in email from Mo Group.
Mo Weiyi initially didn't want to look, but then she saw the subject of the email showing several words: “The Disappeared Lover (Temporary) – Trailer 2”
She thought about what Su Wanwan had said at noon.
So this was the promotional trailer for the movie that Xiao Yebai had invested in for Fang Kaiying to star in?
Mo Weiyi hesitated for a few seconds.
But eventually, she clicked on the email and then clicked to play the video.
The sound of music started, and the screen showed a woman in a European court-style vintage red evening gown, her face in profile, slowly turning towards the camera, smiling faintly.
Meanwhile, in the lower right corner, a line of text appeared — Lead Actress: Fang Kaiying.
As Mo Weiyi watched her face, but she felt somewhat stunned.
…
Aunt Zhou came back dragging a cart full of ingredients and saw Mo Weiyi coming out of the study, surprised she asked, “Princess, didn't you go upstairs to rest?”
Mo Weiyi turned around, “I'm going up now.”
“…Oh.” Aunt Zhou frowned.
Why did it seem like the princess's mood was a bit off just from the time it took to buy groceries?
