As he fell, the pear wood box also fell to the ground. The pills were scattered all over the ground and mixed with the mud, making it impossible to see their color.

Jiang Niannian pursed her lips and looked at Yin Li who fell to the ground. She felt even more pity in her heart. Suddenly, she saw Yin Li grabbing those pills and stuffing them into his mouth. She hurriedly grabbed his wrist and said softly, "Be good, spit them out. They are all dirty. We don't want to eat them..."

Yin Li looked up at her, his eyes fixed on her like a trapped beast. After a long while, he said in a low voice that was not suitable for his age: "You don't understand at all..."

Jiang Niannian was extremely heartbroken, how could she not understand.

She looked at the boy in front of her. His clothes were dirty and emitting a sour smell. His original appearance could no longer be seen. His body was covered with scars of varying sizes. There were old wounds that had already healed, as well as new wounds that were bleeding. Especially on his wrists, there were countless cuts and bloody marks.

The once brilliant and talented immortal cultivator was reduced to nothingness overnight, and was condemned by thousands of people.

He was injured, his eyesight was blurry, his legs were a little lame, and he was left with only a body of sick bones, imprisoned in this dilapidated bamboo courtyard.

Jiang Niannian wanted to hug him, but he deliberately avoided her.

Yin Li didn't look at her, but just said, "Don't come near me."

Everyone will leave him. Those who are good to him will be annihilated by him, and those who don't like him will gradually get fed up with him and abandon this rotten stall.

So, don't be nice to him from the beginning, he doesn't need it.

"Whose child is this? He has such a bad temper and is really unlikable." Jiang Niannian said, picked him up, but was stunned.

He was too light, ridiculously light.

Yin Li was also startled, and then struggled violently: "How dare you! I told you not to touch me! Get out!"

"I won't!" Jiang Niannian said unhappily, "If you don't listen, I will... spank you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yin Li raised his eyes and looked at her with a complicated look.

As if realizing that her tone was a bit harsh, Jiang Niannian sighed and said, "It will be uncomfortable to wear this dirty clothes. If you take a nice shower, the wound will heal faster, right?"

"If you're doing this out of sympathy, then there's no need." Yin Li's voice was a little hoarse and sounded sickly.

"I'm not sympathizing with him, I'm just feeling sorry for him. He's so cute, why does he have to live such a hard life? God is so unfair, don't you think?"

Jiang Niannian was smiling, but her eyes were a little moist. She held him and walked into the house.

Yin Li looked at her expression and asked in confusion: "What do you want from me?"

You are so good to me, what do you want to take away from me?

But I have nothing left.

Jiang Niannian said with a smile: "I want to see the young master happy every day, does that count?"

After saying that, she pinched his skinny face and said, "Come on, smile."

"You have no respect for your elders." Yin Li slapped her hand away, but did not struggle anymore and let her hold him.

[The target character's favorability increases by 10, and the points are 100. The current favorability is -44. Keep up the good work~]

No way, how can there be a negative favorability rating? Didn't we start from zero?!

As soon as Jiang Niannian stepped into the house, a cloud of dust made her unable to open her eyes.

Unwashed clothes were thrown randomly on the ground. The corners of the wall had started to mold due to moisture. Some sour soup splashed on the ground, which was indescribably disgusting.

Although she was mentally prepared, Jiang Niannian still broke down when she was really in the situation.

The person in his arms stiffened, his face becoming visibly gloomy.

Yes, before I traveled through the book, I was his maid. Not only did I often slack off and not give him food and drink, I even joined others in humiliating Yin Li.

[Favorability -1, current favorability: -45. ]

[Favorability -1, current favorability: -46. ]

Jiang Niannian didn't dare to delay any longer. She first put Yin Li on the stool, then went to the kitchen to get some hot water and poured it into the wooden barrel, then added some cold water until the water temperature was just right.

In modern times, she often went to the orphanage to take care of the children, often helping them take a bath, and subconsciously wanted to take off Yin Li's pants.

Suddenly she felt a chill on her head, she looked up and met Yin Li's gaze which was as cold as a pond.

Yin Li was like a wounded beast, silently grabbing his underwear and staring at her warily.

Jiang Niannian blinked: "..." I'm really not a pervert, look at my innocent eyes.

"Well, wash it yourself, Master. I won't watch you."

"Get out." Yin Li's tone was a little cold.

"I'm worried about you, so I'm turning my back to you. Don't worry, I won't peek." Jiang Niannian turned around and faced the bathtub.

Yin Li waited for a while, and seemed to realize that Jiang Niannian really wouldn't peek, so he undressed and fumbled to step into the wooden barrel, but heard her muttering softly: "It's so small, there's nothing to see at all."

Yin Li's body stuttered, then his feet slipped and he fell in.

“Plop!”

A huge sound of water echoed in the house.

Jiang Niannian turned around quickly: "What's wrong?!"

"Get lost!"

The water was clear and the bottom was visible. Yin Li ignored the pain and quickly covered his lower body with his hands. His ears were red and his face was gloomy: "Don't come over! Get out!"

He glared at her with narrowed eyes.

Jiang Niannian was also looking at him, feeling really worried. What if, if she wasn't paying attention, the kid would faint while taking a bath and drown himself in the tub? What would she do then?

They stared at each other without blinking for most of the day, and both of them felt very haggard.

Finally, it was Jiang Niannian who broke the silence. She took out a piece of medicated soap from the cabinet and walked towards Yin Li.

"What are you doing?! Don't come near me!"

"I just want to help the young master clean his body."

Yin Li backed away, but the barrel was so small that he couldn't retreat any further. His face was tense and he growled, "You have no shame! You are unfaithful to your husband! You are so shameless!"

"Yes, yes, young master is right." Jiang Niannian said perfunctorily, soaking the handkerchief, avoiding the wound, and wiping the mud off his body with gentle movements.

Yin Li lowered her head, her long black hair spread out in the water, and she covered a certain part of her body, saying, "You weren't like this before."

"Well, I really went too far before. I will definitely stay by your side and serve you well in the future."

Yin Li said "hmm", in a lukewarm tone, and it was impossible to tell what his emotions were. His red eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of dust, and his expression could not be seen.

[Favorability +10, points +100, current favorability: -36, total points: 200. ]

Jiang Niannian was delighted and her movements became gentler.

After washing Yin Li, Jiang Niannian went out.

The sky outside the window was already getting dark and gloomy, and a heavy rain seemed to be coming.

Yin Li sat quietly on the bed.

The woman said she was going out for a while, and now an incense stick of time has passed and she has not come back yet.

He closed his eyes tiredly and curled his lower lip in self-mockery.

As expected, he was deceived again. Being nice to him was all fake. She couldn't pretend any longer after just a while.

Thinking back to my momentary distraction just now, I just felt it was absurd and ridiculous.
