When Steward Liu returned, he wrote a letter as Madam Yun had requested and sent it to Ping'an Town by fast horse.
And in his letter, he did indeed write that Madam Yun was critically ill.
The reason Steward Liu wrote it this way was twofold: firstly, he dared not disobey Old Madam Yun's wishes, and secondly, he knew Yun Xiao's feelings for Old Madam Yun. If he saw this letter, he would definitely rush back as fast as he could. The sooner he returned, the safer Madam Han would be.
Manager Liu is young, yet he has managed to become the head manager of this restaurant. He is certainly not stupid. From Old Master Yun's attitude today, he knows that the old lady must have guessed something, which is why she did not continue to question him, but instead chose to call him back first.
Meanwhile, in Ping'an Town, Yun Xiao knew he couldn't stay there forever.
Looking at the woman sitting on the swing under the moonlight, the cool moonlight cast a silvery halo on her face, giving her an ethereal quality I had never seen before.
Upon seeing Han Yiyi like this, Yun Xiao's eyes flickered slightly, and he unconsciously walked over and called out softly.
"all……".
Han Yiyi turned her head and saw Yun Xiao, then curled the corners of her lips into a smile.
"What's wrong, Master Yun? Can't sleep either? Came out to admire the moon..."
"Hmm, the moon is beautiful tonight..." she said, but her eyes never left Han Yiyi's face.
Han Yiyi felt Yun Xiao's burning gaze on her face and couldn't help but frown slightly, thinking to herself, "Is this guy going crazy again and coming to confess to me?"
It turns out that ever since that day, when Yun Xiao said, "I love you," he would come over to confess to Han Yiyi from time to time, and each time it was in a different setting, but the words he said were always the same.
"Yi Yi, I love you..." Han Yi Yi knew from Yun Xiao's expression that he was about to "go crazy" again.
Actually, it's not surprising that Han Yiyi thinks that way. She's not a narcissist who thinks she's so outstanding that everyone loves her.
Who is this person? He is the eldest young master of the prestigious Yun family. In other people's eyes, she is not only a divorced woman but also has two children to support.
In modern times, it would be like a rich second-generation heir taking a fancy to a divorced "middle-aged woman" with two children. Although this "middle-aged woman" is quite attractive, the probability of such a thing happening is probably only seen on television.
Therefore, in Han Yiyi's view, even if Yun Xiao had a tiny bit of affection for her, it was nothing more than a passing fancy or a fleeting infatuation.
After all, most of the women he met, as a noble young man from the capital, were gentle and refined. It was rare to find someone as uninhibited and cheerful as her, which is why he became somewhat interested.
But Han Yiyi is no longer a naive young girl just experiencing love. She can't let the other person's whim cloud her judgment, even if the other person is indeed quite good.
Therefore, when Han Yiyi sensed that the atmosphere was not right, she tried to get up and run away, but before she could get up, Yun Xiao pressed her back onto the swing, and then she lay down with her eyes looking straight into Han Yiyi's eyes.
Han Yiyi was pressed back onto the swing by Yun Xiao, and the rope was in his hand again, making it impossible for her to back away. Now that Yun Xiao leaned down, Han Yiyi was completely shrouded in shadow.
Looking at the handsome face so close to hers, Han Yiyi couldn't help but feel a little afraid to look into his eyes. It wasn't for any other reason than that such a gentle and refined young nobleman was looking at her with such burning eyes. Or perhaps it was because the moonlight was too beautiful tonight. For a moment, Han Yiyi was truly at a loss, and her mind went blank.
Until she heard those words, which Han Yiyi had become somewhat immune to: "Yiyi, I love you..."
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Han Yiyi's mind cleared up instantly. However, before she could even open her mouth to refuse, she was pulled into the other person's arms, and then a sentence came to her ear.
"Yi-yi, I really like you. Will you come back to Kyoto with me? I will treat the two children as my own and find them the best teachers. As for that chili pepper, I can also arrange for someone to come and keep an eye on it. You don't have to worry about it..."
Upon hearing Yun Xiao's words, Han Yiyi frowned and tried to break free, but the other party held her too tightly, and she couldn't move at all.
At this moment, Yun Xiao's nose was filled with the unique fragrance of a woman, and his heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was going to jump out of his chest. He was talking to himself and didn't notice the struggle of the person in his arms.
But after he finished speaking, he saw no reaction from Han Yiyi, and he was overjoyed, thinking to himself, "Could it be that she heard my words, was moved, and agreed?"
Actually, the reason he held her in his arms was because he was worried that Han Yiyi would run away before he could finish speaking, just like she always did. The moonlight was so beautiful tonight, and the atmosphere was so nice; he thought she would be moved by his deep affection.
But to my surprise, as soon as I pulled the person out of my arms, I was punched in the eye, followed by a sentence.
"lecher……".
Taking advantage of the moment when Yun Xiao covered his eyes, Han Yiyi quickly got up and escaped his confinement. Just as she was about to run back to her room, she heard a heartbreaking sound behind her.
"Yi-yi, why..."
Upon hearing this voice, Han Yiyi stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Yun Xiao intently.
It must be said that the person opposite was indeed very good-looking. Not only was he good-looking, but he also had a refined and elegant demeanor. Most women would be powerless against such a face. Otherwise, Qingyu would not have been so easily bewitched by him on their blind date.
But Han Yiyi was no ordinary woman; she understood reality better, so she asked.
"Does Young Master Yun truly love me? What do you mean by loving me? I am nothing but a divorced peasant woman with two children. Young Master Yun is the young master of the Yun family. Your current affection is merely because you have rarely seen a woman like me before, and you find it novel. I am not a pastime in your boring life. Now that most of the chili peppers have been planted, Young Master Yun should leave as soon as possible. As for the tutors for my two children, I will find them myself, so you don't need to worry about it..."
After saying that, Han Yiyi ignored the person opposite her and turned back to her room.
After hearing what Han Yiyi said, Yun Xiao stood there, staring at the closed door, his eyes flickering with uncertainty as he pondered something.
A moment later, his eyes seemed to harden again. He walked slowly to Han Yiyi's door, but instead of knocking, he spoke softly.
"Yiyi, my feelings for you are not a passing fancy or a fleeting infatuation. I admire your strength, cheerfulness, and independence, and I also like your kindness and gentleness. I don't care about your past..."
Yun Xiao's voice was gentle yet firm, reaching Han Yiyi's ears through the crack in the door.
