"Okay then," Xi Chen finally compromised. "You're only allowed to wander around here. Don't go to dangerous places or cause trouble. When you see people, especially strangers, you must avoid them. Don't answer anything they ask you. If anything happens, notify me immediately using the bone whistle."
"Don't worry, don't worry." Su Yin couldn't help but yawn loudly, pouting and complaining, "Why did you become so nagging? It's not like you anymore. Where is our most gentle and handsome head of the Xi family?"
"You..." Shaking his head helplessly, Xi Chen always felt as if he was bringing a child out. What's more, this 'child' was very disobedient, yet very sweet-mouthed. It really made him helpless.
"Oh, you really don't have to worry about me. Don't worry, I'm really fine." Seeing Xi Chen still hesitant and stunned, Su Yin urged, "There are so many people in the front hall waiting for you to take charge. Go quickly. I'll just walk around here and wait until you guys are almost done discussing it. Then I'll sneak back to my room. I'll absolutely be fine."
After reassuring Xi Chen, Xi Chen's hesitant eyes finally softened. "Don't run around, don't go too far. When you're done playing, come back immediately. Be careful, okay?"
"Alright, alright. I know everything." Su Yin reassured Xi Chen, pushing him towards the front hall. "There are a lot of people waiting for you in the front hall. Don't waste your time with me. I'm very powerful now. You really don't have to worry about me."
"Okay." Xi Chen responded helplessly, and finally looked at Su Yin deeply and said, "Then you, be careful."
"OK."
Su Yin nodded obediently and agreed. Seeing this, Xi Chen finally felt relieved and turned around to walk towards the front hall with a group of guards.
Su Yin, who was standing behind Xi Chen, waved his hands vigorously at Xi Chen. Only when Xi Chen's figure finally disappeared from his sight did he put down his arms, which were shaking in the air and were a little sore.
Huh~ Finally gone. Su Yin sighed softly and turned around to look around. There were very few people in the backyard at this time. There were only a few servants of the Xichen family who had not yet dealt with external affairs and a few unknown people.
Su Yin smiled, turned around, and ran forward. She was so short! Finally, she was alone again. So many people, all noisy and clamoring, it was really boring.
The ancient inn has stood here for a hundred years, with a strong retro atmosphere. It is completely different from the gorgeous aristocratic buildings, but it makes people feel comfortable.
Su Yin took a deep breath, feeling a sense of comfort from within. The path in the deepest part of the backyard, untended for so long, now looked somewhat desolate and shabby. It formed a stark contrast to the crowded front hall. Here, a distinct silence reigned. Small, unknown flowers bloomed everywhere, and the air was filled with the fragrance of earth.
Reaching out, he casually picked up a small white flower from the ground. The swing, which had not been used for a long time, was floating in the air, making an unpleasant squeaking sound. Su Yin smiled, casually wiped the dust off the swing, sat down gently on the swing, and gently placed the small white flower in his hand between his nose.
“It smells so good.”
