Xi Huan was the first to greet her, with a gentle smile on her face, looking very peaceful: "You must be Aunt Lin, right? My name is Xi Huan. I'm sorry to bother you... I'm... I—"
"Hey, it's okay, it's okay. You clean it up." Aunt Lin reacted and waved her hand quickly, telling her not to be so reserved.
Aunt Lin walked to her suitcase. She just came back to change her clothes and then take the two young masters out for dinner.
I don’t know if the food made in this inn suits the taste of the two young masters?
Looking at the environment, there is almost no village or shop nearby, and I'm afraid the food there is not very fresh.
Aunt Lin was very worried, fearing that the two young masters would not be able to get used to the food. She thought that if the two young masters did not eat well, she would find a way to deal with it herself. She would not let the two young masters go hungry.
Xi Huan was also packing her clothes over there. She kept an eye on Aunt Lin's actions and saw that she was changing clothes and seemed to be planning to go out.
Xi Huan's eyes flashed: "Aunt Lin..."
"Huh?" Aunt Lin turned around, adjusted her collar, and looked at her with a puzzled look.
"Are you going out?" Xi Huan asked.
Aunt Lin smiled and said, "You don't have to be so polite or reserved. It's freezing cold here, so it's a good thing for everyone to help each other."
"Auntie Lin, you are right." Xi Huan also smiled.
Seeing her constantly addressing her as "you," Aunt Lin didn't find it pleasant to listen to. After all, she was just a servant in her master's company. Xi Huan's respect for her didn't make her feel proud, but rather uncomfortable.
Aunt Lin doesn't have much ambition. After all, in her heart, Li Hanting is her boss and the high-ranking figure.
This is what it means to be called "you". Why is Xi Huan calling me like this?
"Auntie Lin, are you going out?" Xi Huan asked again.
“…”
Aunt Lin's smile faded a little. "Yes, I came here to take care of the two young masters. I have to go out and watch over them, and be careful that they don't go out to play in the snow again."
Xi Huan thought of the two twins, and her eyes flickered. "They are really beautiful."
"Thank you, Miss Xi Huan." Aunt Lin said politely.
"Nothing, um...Aunt Lin," Xi Huan stammered.
It was hard for Aunt Lin not to notice. She asked meaningfully, "What's wrong?"
"Can I stay with you? Well... to be honest, my sister and I have always had a strained relationship. Because of this, the inn originally had two rooms left, and our leader arranged for my sister and I to stay together. It was enough for the three grown men to sit together. But my sister has always had a problem with me, and over time, our relationship has become increasingly strained... so she wants to stay in a room by herself. I have no choice but to come and ask you to stay with her."
Xi Huan raised her head and said, "Aunt Lin, I don't mean anything else. I just want to ask if I can go out to dinner with you."
Having said this, she lowered her head.
"I'm afraid I'll run into my sister again, and then she'll start arguing with me again. This will only make things more difficult for everyone in our team."
This... is not an excessive request. Besides, Aunt Lin had a big fight with the girl named Shen Xiaoxing at the beginning.
The girl's upbringing was indeed problematic. Aunt Lin heard a lot of sarcastic remarks along the way.
It's hard for the girl in front of me. She is being picked on and can't argue with her own sister. It's really frustrating.
Aunt Lin just thought about it and nodded in agreement.
Then Xi Huan laughed, "Thank you, Aunt Lin."
Aunt Lin felt uncomfortable again, and the word "you" felt like a curse.
When Aunt Lin and Xi Huan appeared together, Xia Yunxi was a little surprised.
After all, although they are walking together in a team, they are not a group of people after all.
But now, this Miss Xi Huan followed Aunt Lin and came to have dinner with them... Why did it feel a little weird?
Xia Yuan lay in Xia Yunxi's arms, held by his mother. Originally, it was his brother who was pestering his mother, but his brother didn't give in to him at all when he was playing games.
So, Xia Yuan occupied his mother's arms and let his brother, who was held by his father, look at him with resentful eyes.
Xia Yuan ignored him and gave him a slap. Then, his eyes naturally turned to the woman following Grandma Lin.
Xia Yu'an still has a gossipy nature in his bones, so he couldn't help but whisper in Mommy's ear: "Mommy, why did that little sister follow us?"
Xia Yunxi knew what he was saying without even looking.
"Because that young lady wants to have dinner with us."
"But he is not in our team." Xia Yuan said seriously.
Well, I don’t know what excuse to use to deceive children.
Xia Yunxi had no choice but to say, "That young lady said she had a fight with her younger sister, and they both needed to calm down, so she came to have dinner with us."
Xia Yunxi thought that after explaining it this way, Xia Yuan would understand.
Unexpectedly, he said directly: "Then she won't let us be responsible, right?"
Xia Yunxi smiled, "What are you thinking about?"
But after finishing the topic and calming down, she felt that... it seemed that the strange thing she had just felt was really this.
Xia Yunxi couldn't help but turn around to look at the girl following behind her. Xi Huan quickly noticed it, raised his head and gave her a harmless smile.
Xia Yunxi also smiled, holding Xia Yuan and catching up with the man in front.
Li Hanting looked back at her and asked, "Do you need help?"
Xia Yunxi shook her head and hugged her son. She was happy no matter how tired she was.
Li Hanting looked at her several times, not understanding the expression on her face.
Several people came out of the room and went downstairs together. In the hall downstairs, Wang Zhenyang and others had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Xi Huan in their team, Wang Zhenyang and the others were stunned for a moment, and then Zhao Musen spoke up, "Xi Huan, here."
Xi Huan looked towards them and saw Shen Xiaoxing rolling his eyes. Xi Huan bit her lip lightly and hesitated, not knowing whether she should go over or not.
Aunt Lin also saw it, but it was someone else's business and she, as an outsider, had no right to interfere.
Zhao Musen saw that Xi Huan saw him but didn't come over. He was about to get up and pull Xi Huan over, but he saw Wang Zhenyang beside him suddenly stand up.
Zhao Musen paused slightly, and slowly clenched his hands that were stretched out in the air.
"Tsk." Shen Xiaoxing on the opposite side sneered, a clear mockery.
Although Zhao Musen felt ashamed and annoyed, he didn't care about it. He had cared too much about it along the way and didn't know how many times they had quarreled.
And the final result was that he was so angry that his face and neck turned red.
There's nothing I can do about that woman.
