"Family Head!" Xuan Jiu wailed in desperation and then turned to Xiao Jinsheng, pleading, "Please, give this old servant something to do."
Xiao Jinsheng recoiled in horror.
"Can you act normal?" Xiao Jinsheng's voice trembled.
"Family Head, just give me a bite to eat and a pavilion to shelter from the wind and rain—I am willing to serve you like an ox or horse!" Xuan Jiu exclaimed.
"You... you need to calm down. Don't act like this. You're scaring me," Xiao Jinsheng said, retreating from Xuan Jiu.
Mo Jiao turned to Chen Yunji, reminding him, "Look after your friend."
Chen Yunji was just about to intervene.
But he remembered Xuan Jiu's advice.
As long as he carried on as usual, everything depended on Xuan Jiu's instructions.
Now that Xuan Jiu was performing, naturally, Chen Yunji wouldn't hinder him.
Chen Yunji gestured to his own head, retorting, "We're just fellow patients, not friends."
Mo Jiao was momentarily speechless.
