The door of the private room was suddenly pushed open, and Yan Suizhi strode in with an anxious look on his face. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Jin Bai was fine.
Seeing Xie Wanyun there, he was stunned for a moment, and the expression on his face changed in an instant.
He was hosting a banquet here today and brought Jin Bai along.
As a result, the guests had not arrived yet, and he had to leave for something urgent, so he asked the servant to look after Jin Bai while he went to do his business first.
Who would have thought that the child would be so cunning as to send the servant away and do such a dangerous thing.
Fortunately, there was no harm.
His face darkened and he shouted at Jin Bai, "Yan Jin Bai! Get over here!"
Jinbai was frightened and looked around helplessly, hoping someone would plead for him.
However, there were only Aunt Xie and Quan Ge'er in this room.
Aunt Xie had a cold expression on her face and obviously ignored him.
That silly boy Quan Ge'er opened his mouth wide and looked dazed.
Jin Bai sighed, threw herself into Yan Suizhi's arms, and sobbed.
Yan Suizhi wanted to scold him severely, but at this moment the child's soft little body nestled in his arms, crying very sadly, obviously frightened!
She could no longer get angry, but instead held on to him and kept comforting him.
Xie Wanyun saw Jin Bai secretly making a face at her.
I couldn't help but laugh.
What a clever boy! Knowing that he had gotten into trouble today, he started to act like a spoiled child and pretended to be wronged so that the adults would not have the heart to punish him.
Thinking about how Jin Bai's eyes dimmed instantly after being rejected by her, she felt a little reluctant.
Yan Suizhi put Jin Bai down and bowed to her politely.
"Madam, I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. Jinbai is a naughty child. If it weren't for your help, I would have regretted it by now."
His face was pale, but his eyes were surprisingly bright, as if burning with flames.
Xie Wanyun felt a little uncomfortable because of the flames.
She also didn't understand why Yan Suizhi was so excited every time he saw her.
In his previous life, although he betrayed the Xie family, there was no intersection between the two of them, and he did not do anything wrong to her.
Since I can't figure it out, I just don't think about it.
Xie Wanyun raised his cold eyes, a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his lips.
"Master Yan seems to care deeply about Jin Bai, yet he's willing to leave such a young child alone in a strange place. I wonder what important matter he's on about?"
"This,..." Yan Suizhi was about to explain when he was interrupted by Xie Wanyun.
"Lord Yan's affairs are naturally important, so it's not convenient to disclose them to others. I just asked casually and didn't dare to ask too much. Since Jin Bai is fine, I'll take my leave."
After Xie Wanyun finished speaking, she didn't even look at him anymore and walked out the door.
"Thank you, Auntie!" Jin Bai was still unwilling to give up, and chased after her, shouting crisply.
Xie Wanyun paused, she just couldn't bring herself to be cruel to the cute Jin Bai.
"Mrs. Xie! Please wait a moment." Yan Suizhi suddenly called out. He followed her out a few steps, hesitated for a moment, and then lowered his voice and said, "You need to pay more attention recently and be careful about everything."
Xie Wanyun raised his eyebrows in surprise. What does that mean?
Yan Suizhi said quickly, "In any case, be more careful."
Then he said loudly: "Yan Mou thanks Madam for your help again. I'm sorry I can't see you off."
Xie Wanyun's cold brows drooped, and she wanted to say something, but felt she had nothing to say. She only nodded at him, her robe fluttering as she walked down the stairs.
Yan Suizhi instinctively reached out, wanting to catch that faint plum fragrance...
After returning to the mansion, Xie Wanyun sent Quan Ge'er to practice sword first.
Quan went there happily, thinking that Jin Bai's Qinggong was quite good, and he wanted to find an opportunity to let the lady teach him.
Otherwise, he would be outshined by Jin Bai.
As soon as Xie Wanyun entered the Nong Yu Hall, she saw Liu Yun'er coming again, standing at the door with a flattering smile on her face.
She said softly, "Madam, it was my fault yesterday. I brought so many sweets here, and you were right. So I made some more snacks, they're not too sweet, please try them."
Xie Wanyun really didn't want to pay attention to her and just went into the room to change clothes.
Liu Yun'er still had a smile on her face and sat alone as if nothing had happened.
Yuzhui looked at her with disdain, wondering what this person was up to today.
When Xie Wanyun finally came out, Liu Yun'er immediately stood up and took out the snacks from the food box one by one, introducing them attentively: "Madam, look, this is pine nut cake, this is chestnut cake, and this is almond cake. They are all crispy and not very sweet. I even put less sugar in them. Madam, please do me a favor and try them."
