“I don’t mind.”

Pei Ying was elated and said, “And you said earlier that this young master is your friend. What’s his name?”

Bai Xianyu found it strange. “He’s right in front of you. Why don’t you ask him yourself?”

Pei Ying said softly, “I think this young master is a little fierce. 1 don’t dare to talk to him.”

If it were any other man, whom a teenage girl had cautiously said was fierce, he would probably show a trace of friendliness to her no matter how fierce he was or how bad his temper was.

But Xie Xingyun didn’t. He said calmly, “Are you done?”

Pei Ying was terrified. “Yes.”

“Get lost.” Xie Xingyun smiled insincerely. “Don’t disturb me and her.”

Pei Ying really felt humiliated now. “I’m sorry, Young Master.”

Bai Xianyu glanced at Xie Xingyun. “Why are you so fierce? She has no grudge against you.”

“Noisy.”

Pei Ying stood up, covered her face, and ran towards the firewood.

“She was fished up by the guards of my residence today. Perhaps the boat she was on was in trouble, so she floated here and even lost her memory.” Bai Xianyu felt that women already suffered many unfair treatments in this world. Before they got married, they would stay at home all the time. After getting married, they would have to help their husband and raise their children. Even if the Great Kui could let girls and boys study together, there had never been a precedent of a woman becoming an official.

Therefore, as a woman, if she could help, she had to do more good.

Xie Xingyun smiled. “My Little Yu is kind-hearted.”

Bai Xianyu almost choked. Before she could reply, Bai Jingyuan’s voice sounded. “Little Yu, come here!”

Xie Xingyun turned his head and looked at Bai Jingyuan.

“Alright, I’m coming!”

Bai Jingyuan’s tone was like he was guarding against thieves. Bai Xianyu was a little embarrassed. “Xie Xingyun, have some shame.”

Xie Xingyun raised his eyebrows and did not comment.

Fortunately, he was shameless. Otherwise, his wife would have really run away with someone.

Pei Ying suffered a series of setbacks, and ran back to her room.

Previously, Bai Xianyu had asked Green Pearl to send someone to get a room ready for her. However, the number of rooms on the ship was limited, and there were quite a few maidservants and guards with her. It was impossible for an unfamiliar woman to sleep in Bai Xianyu’s room, so Pei Ying stayed in the maids’ room.

She looked at the clothes she was wearing. They were all given to her by the maidservants.

“Why are you back?”

Green Pearl walked in from the door. As soon as she entered, she poured herself a cup of tea. “Do you want a drink?”

Pei Ying shook her head and asked, “Didn’t your Miss say that she doesn’t need me to be her maidservant? Why do you still let me wear the clothes of a maidservant?”

She knew why the man did not even look at her. She was covered in gray. Sitting with Bai Xianyu, it was like heaven and earth.

Green Pearl took a sip of tea. “But Miss’s clothes are very expensive. Moreover, Miss didn’t bring many dresses this time. What she had brought were what she liked. Moreover, Miss takes a bath in the morning and a bath at night. The clothes are changed quickly and washed quickly. And today, there’s hardly any sun. Perhaps it will suddenly rain and she will be drenched. There are even fewer clothes that she can change into.”

Pei Ying did not want to hear so many explanations and was a little annoyed. “But isn’t she going back on her word? I’m clearly not her maidservant, but I’m wearing the clothes of a maidservant. Those who don’t know would think that I’m her maidservant.” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Why would you think that?” Green Pearl was very puzzled. “Who treated you as a maid?”

Pei Ying did not want to speak anymore. “No one. I’m going to sleep.”

Green Pearl was speechless. She felt that this girl might not be easy to get along with before she lost her memory.

A few days later, Pei Ying secretly inquired about Bai Jingyuan. At the same time, he found out how powerful the Bai family was and that the young man pursuing their Miss was actually a relative of the imperial family.

Seeing that they were about to dock and disembark, Pei Ying became even more anxious!

What should she do!

What if she couldn’t find a place to stay in Liang Province?

Even if she had some money, it was obvious that her hands had never done any work. How could she survive?!

“It’s time to eat.”

A maidservant brought Pei Ying a set of bowls and chopsticks. “Come and eat, Miss. This is the fish that Lord Xie caught last time. Lord Xie gave it to Miss, so Miss let us eat it together.”

Pei Ying felt even more worried, but her expression was weak. “When does your Young Master usually rest?”

“Young Master? Why are you asking about Young Master?”

“I can’t sleep these few days. I’m afraid I’ll disturb Young Master Bai if I go out at night, so I want to ask..”
