Bai Jingyuanâs face darkened slightly. He snorted and blocked Bai Xianyu even more tightly.
Xie Xingyunâs eyes were calm as he took a step back. âIâm true to Little Yu. I have nothing to hide.â
Bai Jingyuan gave him a critical look. In the past, he had treated him as a fellow colleague and a junior. He felt that he was not bad, but if he really wanted to be his brother-in-law.
âIs Little Yu a name you are fit to even say it?â
Xie Xingyun raised his eyebrows. âSister Xianyu.â
Everyone,ââ¦â
Xiao Zheng, who was dozens of meters away, trembled when he heard that. He was still not used to Young Master addressing the girl of a family affectionately as âSisterâ.
It was more befitting for Young Master to make the girl cry with his stern faceâ¦
Ji Shuang frowned and leaned over to whisper cautiously into Bai Xianyuâs ear, âThis man is already so bold publicly. Little Yu, donât let him catch an opportunity in private, or elseâ¦â
Bai Xianyu did not listen to the rest of the sentence. She instantly thought of Xie Xingyun kissing her wound last night.
It had to be said that Ji Shuang saw it very clearly, but the problem was that Xie Xingyun was someone even Bai Li could not defend himself against.
She felt a headache coming on. At this moment, Gu Yu had finished prescribing the medicine and instructed the servants to get it. Then, he stood beside Xie Xingyun and smiled confidently. âBrother Jingyuan, donât be angry. Xingyun has such a passionate personality, especially when it comes to his sweetheart.â Everyone,ââ¦?â
Xie Xingyun glanced at him. âYes.â
Bai Xianyu,ââ¦â
She was originally standing behind Bai Jingyuan, but Ji Shuang narrowed her eyes , pulled her over and held her behind her.
Xie Xingyun watched as Bai Xianyu got further and further away from him. The corners of his mouth stiffened. This was the first time he had been guarded against like a thief.
Bai Jingyuan was afraid that the fair and tender sister he had raised would be stolen, so he said in a low voice, âLittle Yu, go in and rest.â
Bai Xianyu had always been very obedient in front of her brother. Her eyes curved slightly. âAlright, Iâll go in then.â
âYes.â Bai Jingyuan rubbed the top of her head.
Sensing a gaze on his hand, Bai Jingyuanâs lips curled up in disdain. He rubbed it a little longer.
Bai Xianyu did not resist and raised her head slightly.
The wind around them seemed to have slowed down, reluctant to interrupt the warmth at this moment.
Xie Xingyunâs pupils constricted slightly, as if there was a dark light surging.
[Are you in a bad mood? My brother and the others love to rub my hair the most. They said that itâs like rubbing a civet cat. After rubbing, oneâs mood will be better. Why donât⦠I rub it for you?]
[They are them. I donât like it.]
In the past, everything was within his reach, but now⦠it was beyond his reach.
Xie Xingyun clenched his fists and took a few steps back. âIâll leave first.â
After he left, Bai Jingyuan retracted his hand and carefully smoothed Bai Xianyuâs messy hair. âIf you feel unwell, tell Bai Li immediately. When you feel better, Iâll get someone to bring you home.â
Bai Xianyu nodded.
Gu Yu also left after giving some instructions.
Ji Shuang picked up Bai Xianyuâs hand and placed a safety talisman on it. She smiled faintly and said, âI went to request for two safety talismans yesterday. One for you and one for me. I hope that our Little Yu will be safe in the future.â
Bai Xianyu looked at the yellow talisman in her hand and a warm feeling surged in her heart. âAlright, we have to be safe.â
Looking at her cold and proud face, Bai Xianyu fell into deep thought. She did not know where Shuangâer had gone in her previous life.
Why did she disappear?
After everyone left, Green Pearl sorted out the scar removal medicine that Bai Jingyuan had brought and brought it into Bai Xianyuâs room.
Bai Xianyu lay on the bed and suddenly remembered what Xie Xingyun said last night.
[This medicine was given to me by Gu Yu. He likes to play with poison, so after applying this medicine, donât use other scar removal medicine, in case it counters each other.]
She moved her fingers to the bandage on the wound and paused for two seconds, feeling that something was wrong.
Bai Xianyu looked down. The more she looked at it, the more she felt that the knot of the bandage seemed to be different from last night.
Could it be⦠Xie Xingyun came again in the morning?
Bai Xianyu thought for a moment and said, âGreen Pearl, go get a bottle of medicine from Xie Xingyun. Bring the banknotes. If theyâre not enough, come back and get more.â
Green Pearl replied, âOkay.â
Seeing Green Pearl leave, Bai Xianyu was about to close her eyes and rest for a while when she heard footsteps standing in front of her door.
The figure reflected in front of the window paper was tall, like a man.
âWhoâs that?â
The man outside the door paused. The next second, he spoke a little faster and said nervously, âItâs me, Mo Linyuan..â
