Before Xu's mother could dig out some useful information from Xu Jinyi, she was interrupted by Xu Jinyi.

"I promised Xinyue that I would go on an outing outside Beijing these two days, so I won't be back. Is that okay with Madam Xu?"

Xu's mother said in a flattering manner: "Why are you called Madam Xu, kid? I am your mother."

"Since the Regent's carriage is already waiting, then you should go quickly and don't keep him waiting for too long."

Xu Jinyi's expression turned embarrassed. "Isn't it a bit inappropriate for me to go on this trip without bringing anything? Does Xinyue think I'm eating and drinking for free?"

Xu's mother reacted and quickly asked someone to withdraw another 5,000 taels of silver from the warehouse and hand it to Xu Jinyi.

"Xiao Jin, take this banknote and go out with the princess to have some fun."

"Thank you very much."

Looking at Xu Jingwan's murderous jealous eyes, Xu Jinyi walked past her with a sweet smile.

Seeing them smiling as they escorted him to the carriage, Xu Jinyi felt extremely disgusted with this family.

The moment he pushed open the carriage door, Xu Jinyi's eyebrows curved, and he looked at the hand being offered and stretched it out without hesitation.

"Brother, why are you here? Didn't you say you were waiting for me at home?"

Xu Jinyi threw herself into his arms, her little head nodding against his chest.

"I'm afraid they will make things difficult for you." Han Ting pulled the person in and closed the door to block all view from outside.

"They can't give me any trouble."

The housekeeper looked at the Regent bringing Xu Jinyi back, and his face was as bright as a chrysanthemum.

"Miss Xu is here. Please stay for dinner today. I'll have someone go buy some eels and snails."

Xu Jinyi nodded: "I want to eat seafood today, all kinds of seafood, and then prepare a guest room for me, I want to stay overnight."

The housekeeper smiled even brighter when he heard this: "I will arrange it right away."

The housekeeper didn't think there was anything wrong with Xu Jinyi staying overnight. Instead, he had someone clean up the room next to Han Ting with great interest.

Han Ting's Adam's apple rolled and his ears turned red: "Isn't it too hasty? I haven't asked anyone to prepare the betrothal gifts yet, so..."

Xu Jinyi glanced at his dark red ears, realized that he had misunderstood something, and rolled his eyes cunningly.

"You don't want me to stay? Huh?"

The charming scent of orchid coming out of her mouth made Han Ting a little distracted.

Just thinking about her staying here made me excited, and I couldn't help but imagine Feifei.

Xu Jinyi couldn't help laughing as she watched his neck turn red.

Raising her hand, she pinched his soft red earlobe: "Tell me, what are you thinking about?"

"You! I miss you!"

"If I didn't know that you never let women get close to you before, I would have suspected that you had flirted with a lot of women, otherwise how could you be so good at it." Xu Jinyi glared at him coquettishly.

Han Ting hugged her from behind, his arms around her waist, his chin resting on her shoulder, and his cheek rubbing against her smooth face.

"So did I succeed in seducing you? Hmm?" Han Ting's voice was hoarse and sexy, with an upward tone at the end, which was subtly alluring.

Xu Jinyi: “…”

It’s not certain who is teasing whom!

"I'll go check out the new moon first."

While Xu Jinyi was giving acupuncture to Xinyue, Han Ting went to the room next to him in person.

"Butler, instead of roses, have someone pick some lavender from the yard and bring in three pots of yellow hibiscus."

The butler nodded repeatedly, feeling that this kind of regent was more like a human being.

Although this is the Regent's Palace and his home, Han Ting never made any requests regarding the decorations or additions to the rooms, or the replacement of items in the house.

Just like staying in an inn, this place is just a place to sleep for him.

So when the butler heard that he cared about these things now, he felt relieved.

"Don't change these curtains to pink. She doesn't like pink. See if there are any warm yellow or apricot curtains to replace them."

Thinking of her aversion to pink when she was a child, and that little expression of disgust, Han Ting's lips curled up into a faint smile.

The room was tidied up. Han Ting looked at the warm furnishings and couldn't help feeling happy at the thought that she was going to stay there.

Thinking of something, he quickly asked the housekeeper to send a pile of clothes over.

After Xu Jinyi finished her work, she was led by the housekeeper to her room and was stunned when she saw it.

There were so many clothes that it was dizzying. Xu Jinyi looked at Han Ting who was waiting to be praised.

"Did you misunderstand something? When I said stay, I only meant stay for one night, or half a night."

Han Ting looked at her in confusion.

"I can't delay treating Xinyue's poison any longer. Apart from the three troublesome herbs, I should go and prepare the rest."

Han Ting: "What medicinal herbs do you want? I'll send someone to find them."

"If I can let others look for it, there's no need for me to go myself. I'll have to set out before dawn tomorrow."

"That medicinal herb is hard to find. It likes to grow on cliffs, and there's even one that likes to grow in damp, gloomy places. I have to go there myself."

Han Ting frowned. When he heard that it was such a dangerous place, he decided to go with them without thinking.

"Can you leave the capital?"

"I'll go and explain it. I'll leave with you tomorrow."

Xu Jinyi nodded. It would be better to have someone to accompany him.

As night fell, Xu Jinyi was sweating after dinner due to the spicy food.

"This spicy snail is delicious, but also very spicy."

While sitting in the yard to enjoy the cool air, Xu Jinyi couldn't stand it anymore and asked someone to fan her hard. Her little tongue, which was so spicy that it turned bright red, couldn't help but stick out, making a hissing sound.

Han Ting wiped her sweat with a handkerchief and urged her why the ice basin had not come yet.

"It's okay, it's just too spicy. The weather isn't too hot, so you don't need an ice basin. Rub your neck too."
