Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Yes, I’ve already asked Xiao Zheng and the others to move your things to the inn.” Xie Xingyun touched her forehead. “You’re sweating a lot. Do you want to take a bath first?”

Bai Xianyu’s face was as red as a cooked prawn.

“Ehm.”

Xie Xingyun lowered his head and said with a faint smile, “What are you shy about?”

Bai Xianyu threw the blanket on him and pursed her red lips. “Stop talking.”

She heard the man’s muffled laughter above her head.

She was about to get off the bed when Xie Xingyun grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms.

Bai Xianyu placed her hands on his chest and watched as he lowered his head. His hot breath seemed to burn the air around her ears.

Xie Xingyun said something in her ear. Then, he looked at her quietly with a smile in his eyes.

It was as if he was waiting for her reaction.

Bai Xianyu was stunned for a few seconds before biting her lip. Her face was red and her skin was about to heat up.

“Alright.” Xie Xingyun stood up in satisfaction. “I’ll get someone to bring you water.”

Bai Xianyu buried herself in the pillow. The man’s smiling voice seemed to still echo in her ears.

What Xie Xingyun said was—

[… Then I’ll work harder.]

How could he say such a thing calmly?

Bai Xianyu’s face was so red that it was about to bleed.

But her heart was pounding uncontrollably because of his words. She did not even want to reject him.

Although she did not want to admit it, Bai Xianyu realized that she seemed to be more and more unable to reject him and liked him more and more.

At this rate, she even felt that she would fulfill all of Xie Xingyun’s requests.

Bai Xianyu was a little stunned and confused.

When Xiao Zheng saw Xie Xingyun finally coming out of the room, his expression turned solemn.

However, his eyes kept sneaking glances at his master.

He had been guarding here all night and had also heard some movements.

However, he was a little curious. If Master and the Bai family’s Miss really… then based on his Master’s physical constitution, it would definitely be more than this.

Xie Xingyun said calmly, “Get someone to bring water up.”

Xiao Zheng nodded. He was really curious and took the risk of being beaten to death. “Young Master, you and Fifth Miss Bai…”

Xie Xingyun glanced at him and knew what he was thinking.

“No.”

Xiao Zheng felt a little strange. If they did not, how was it reversed? Wasn’t it said that it could not be reversed?

Xie Xingyun seemed to have thought of something and smiled roguishly.

“You’ll know more after you get married.”

Xiao Zheng,”…”

An unbelievable thought appeared in his mind!

Xie Xingyun stopped in his tracks before returning to his room. “Also, get someone to bring a bucket of cold water in.”

H H

Xiao Zheng immediately understood. “Yes.”

After the girl was chased away by the guards, Bai Jingyuan stood up and swept a basket of peaches off the table.

The clean and moist peaches fell to the ground and were stained with a layer of dust. They instantly turned gray.

[Little Blockhead, why did you fight with someone again?]

Bai Jingyuan, who was still young, looked at a little girl who was kneeling in front of him. Her voice was soft.

[It doesn’t hurt. It will be alright after blowing on it.]

She leaned over and awkwardly blew on the wound on his face.

His tone was cold as he waved her hand away.

[Stay away from me.]

The little girl did not sit properly and was pushed down by him. She pouted angrily and her eyes turned red.

[Bad blockhead, I secretly went to the palace to pick peaches for you to eat, and you still hit me.]

His eyes flickered and he clenched his fists.

Before she could finish, tears fell.

[I told you not to do these things anymore. I don’t need it.]

‘But 1 think of you as a good friend,’ she choked and said.

[No one wants to be friends with me.]

[There’s me.]

Yu Xue’s cute little face scrunched up like a little bun. With two strings of tears hanging on her face, she said angrily, [But I don’t wish to now. I want to play with Brother Chuan. He won’t be fierce to me.]

He frowned.

He glanced at her fair forearm, which was already a little swollen from his push.

Two peaches rolled out of her little sleeve and landed in the soil, looking dirty.

He paused and silently picked them up from the ground. He patted the dust off them and took a bite.

The little girl opened her moist eyes and forgot to cry.

[They are dirty.]

His voice softened.

[… Sweet.]

Bai Jingyuan frowned tightly.

How did he associate that woman with her?

One was already dead…
