In the dead of night, the largest brick-tiled house, on the master bedroom's bed.
Luna Sutton touched her lower abdomen, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
The image of the Dragon Blood Ginseng kept flashing before her eyes. She cautiously turned over, unable to resist asking the system in her mind: "System, the Dragon Blood Ginseng that showed up in the kitchen this morning, was it really picked up by Kian Sterling?"
The system's voice quickly rang out in her mind: "That was brought over by Mael Valerius in the middle of the night, wanting to keep it for you to nourish your body. Kian did go out after you fell asleep, but not to use the bathroom—he went to look for Mael Valerius, only he didn't find him, Mael had already left by then."
"Mael Valerius?"
Luna frowned, suddenly remembering last midnight when she couldn't sleep and had snuck off with Kian Sterling to talk in the dense forest.
