City Lord's Mansion.
The City Lord was just discussing serious matters with Xie Jinnian when a servant came to report that Madam Ru was not feeling well.
Xie Jinnian said tactfully, "Foster Father, I suddenly remembered that I still have some things to deal with. I'll report this information to you later."
"Sounds good."
The City Lord did not refuse.
After Xie Jinnian left the City Lord's study, the City Lord went to Madam Ru's Jade Pavilion.
At this moment, Madam Ru was lying on the bed with a frown. Cai Lian, the maidservant, brought her chicken soup for her to drink, but she pushed her away.
"Madam, you haven't eaten anything since you came back. You're not hungry, but the child in your womb would be."
"I don't have an appetite," Madam Ru said.
Cai Lian said earnestly, "At least drink a few mouthfuls of soup. If you don't want to drink chicken soup, I'll get the kitchen to make other tonic soup."
"City Lord."
