Chapter 72: Who needs his pain!
"Shengsheng, wait for Third Brother!"
After leaving Guanlan Courtyard, Ruan Yunbo hurried to catch up with his sister.
"Shengsheng, Xie Yan has a cold personality and isn't very talkative. But if he didn't truly love you, why would he take such a big risk for you?"
Ruan Yunsheng got angry when he thought of Xie Yan's words "That's not necessary".
He raised his chin and said arrogantly, "Who needs him to hurt?"
Ruan Yunbo signaled the servants to leave and coaxed his sister for a while.
"Xie Yan has never been good at saying nice things since he was a child. You know that. Considering that he's injured, don't bother with him."
Ruan Yunsheng is not an ungrateful person. Xie Yan was injured to help her, and she also wants to get along well with him in the future.
But he was on good terms with the third brother, but when it came to her turn, he said, "That's not necessary"!
But Xie Yan has always been a talkative person. He was just like that when he went to the Taiwei Mansion to search for the Sun and Moon Jade Bi...
Forget it, she is a magnanimous person and won’t bother with that bastard Xie Yan!
Ruan Yunsheng reluctantly said, "I'll send the ginseng soup to Xie Yan when it's ready."
An hour later.
Ruan Yunsheng placed the ginseng soup heavily on the cabinet beside Xie Yan's bed and said with a stern face, "Third brother asked me to give it to you. Drink it if you want."
When Xie Yan saw Ruan Yunsheng coming back, he tried hard to flatten the corners of his lips.
Shengsheng is so cute when she's angry...
He coughed lightly and coaxed softly, "Shengsheng, that's not what I meant before. I just felt..."
"Forget it, forget it. This princess won't bother with you." Ruan Yunsheng said, and suddenly wrinkled her nose. "What's that smell here?"
She has a very sensitive nose, but because the distance was far, she couldn't smell it clearly.
But now she was standing in front of Xie Yan's bed, feeling it up and down, left and right, and asked doubtfully: "The smell seems to be coming from you."
She leaned in closer and sniffed carefully, "Why does it smell like women's powder?"
Xie Yan had a cool sandalwood scent mixed with the fragrance of medicine on his body, so she was not very sure for a moment. She moved forward again to confirm it again.
Xie Yan looked at Ruan Yunsheng's bright face so close to him, his Adam's apple rolled heavily, and his body leaned back slightly.
She said in a hoarse voice, "You're smelling it wrongly. How could I possibly smell like powder? The fragrance should be coming from you."
Ruan Yunsheng lowered his head and sniffed his sleeve, "No, that's not my smell."
She grabbed Xie Yan's collar to stop him from dodging, "Don't move, let me smell it carefully!"
Xie Yan's face is as white as snow, but he has had fair skin since he was a child. Compared with five years ago, his skin seems to be even whiter, but it is impossible for him to secretly put on powder.
Unless... Ruan Yunsheng frowned!
Is this old-fashioned guy secretly keeping a mistress outside?
He is injured all over, yet he still has the interest?
The distance between the two was very close, and Xie Yan's breathing became increasingly rapid. His fingers were trembling with excitement, but he was worried that Ruan Yunsheng would really discover something.
His voice was low and hoarse, he was reluctant but also willing: "Shengsheng, don't press me like this...it hurts..."
Ruan Yunbo had just finished checking the accounts with the shopkeeper. He was worried about his sister and Xie Yan being alone together, afraid that they would start arguing again if they had a disagreement, so he came to check on them.
Unexpectedly, when he opened the door, he saw his sister pressing Xie Yan to the head of the bed in a threatening manner, not knowing what she was going to do to him!
Xie Yan was seriously injured, pitiful, helpless and sick, crying out in pain weakly!
Ruan Yunbo: “!!!”
Why did they start fighting after such a short while?
He rushed forward, grabbed his sister's arm, and urged her urgently, "Sister, calm down!"
"Do you want to smother him with a pillow or hit him with a vase?"
He hurriedly pulled Ruan Yunsheng away from the bed, "No way! If you don't use enough strength, someone will die!"
"Xie Yan is sick now. How did he offend you? Wait until he recovers."
Ruan Yunsheng was caught off guard and was pulled away by her brother. "No, I didn't mean to kill him."
Ruan Yunbo advised kindly, "Beating him half to death won't do!"
Ruan Yunsheng was unhappy, "Third brother, don't pull me! Xie Yan must have gone out fooling around last night!"
Xie Yan leaned weakly against the head of the bed, his clothes slightly messed up by Ruan Yunsheng, revealing a section of his slender neck.
He coughed lightly a few times and explained weakly: "Third brother, I didn't."
Ruan Yunbo certainly knew that Xie Yan couldn't have gone out to fool around last night.
He returned home with Xie Yan last night. This morning, Xie Yan was summoned to the palace again, beaten with fifty strokes of the cane, and carried back to the Marquis's residence.
Where does he get the time and energy to fool around?
Ruan Yunbo coaxed and persuaded his sister and pulled her out.
"Shengsheng, Xie Yan is a patient now. Even if he makes you angry and you want to hit or scold him, you have to wait until he recovers."
Ruan Yunsheng seemed to have discovered something extraordinary, and said seriously, "Third brother, I smell a woman's scent on Xie Yan!"
"W-what?" Ruan Yunbo was also very surprised. "Are you sure?"
Ruan Yunsheng nodded vigorously, "Brother, you know I have a very sensitive nose!"
Ruan Yunbo sighed: "Xie Yan looks like a pure and unselfish boy. I really didn't expect that..."
"I want to ask Xie Yan where he is hanging out!" Ruan Yunsheng said, and was about to go back into Xie Yan's room to force a confession.
"Sister, wait a minute."
Ruan Yunbo came back to his senses and quickly grabbed Ruan Yunsheng's arm. He whispered, "Xie Yan isn't a child anymore. Even if there's a woman around him, it's no big deal."
Ruan Yunsheng frowned, "How can that be possible? What if he brings those unhealthy practices back to the Marquis' Mansion?"
Ruan Yunbo thought about it and felt that what his sister said made sense.
He is upright and has nothing to fear, so he is naturally not afraid of being influenced, but his sister is still young, so he must not be led astray.
"Well, third brother, go talk to Xie Yan later. If there's a woman he really likes, if she's from a high-class family, he should come and propose marriage as soon as possible. If she's of a lower status, he can take her back to the mansion as a concubine."
"But don't be like that Wei Wencai and keep a concubine."
Ruan Yunsheng didn't expect her brother to say that. She frowned slightly and said, "Third brother, why are you still siding with Xie Yan? When has our mansion ever had the custom of taking concubines?"
"Have you forgotten what your parents told you when they were still alive? No young master in our mansion is allowed to take concubines!"
Her parents are very loving, and her father has no other women around him except her mother.
It’s not like other mansions, where there are many wives and concubines and the atmosphere is chaotic.
Ruan Yunbo didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Of course my brother hasn't forgotten, but Xie Yan... he's different from us. He's a prince, and having three wives and four concubines is very common. Look at Prince Duan, I'm afraid I can't count the concubines in his mansion with both hands."
"Besides," he lowered his voice, "if Xie Yan really takes that position in the future, he will definitely have three harems and six courtyards. He can't just marry one wife his whole life like his brothers."
