"While I'm away, you must take good care of Miss Xia and stay by her side at all times. If anything happens to her, I will hold you accountable."
"Yes, young master."
Just then, Xia Bingqing suddenly spoke up, "Brother Xun, I have a request. Could you let Yi Yi take care of me?"
Yi, who was helping to clear the table, was taken aback.
Mu Nanxun frowned and refused without hesitation. "She's not a servant here."
“Brother Xun, you misunderstood me. What I meant was, could Yi Yi stay at home with me, instead of taking care of me like a maid? Think about it, if you leave, I won’t even have anyone to talk to. Sister Wen Ya is not feeling well, so I can only turn to Yi Yi.”
Upon hearing this, Mu Nanxun pondered for a moment, then glanced at Yi Yi with some unease, "Is it alright?"
Yi nodded nonchalantly, "No problem."
Although she used to dislike Miss Xia, now that Xia Bingqing was blind, she felt a bit sorry for her. Besides, Xia Bingqing was injured because of Mu Nanxun, so this was a way of repaying Xia Bingqing.
Mu Nanxun was still somewhat uneasy. After all, Xia Bingqing had hurt Yi Yi first, and he couldn't guarantee that she simply wanted Yi Yi to stay with her.
"You all need to stay by Miss Xia's side and take good care of her. As for Yi Yi, you just keep her company and talk to her; leave the rest to the servants."
Xia Bingqing felt uncomfortable hearing these obviously biased words, and her face stiffened.
"Be careful, Brother Xun, we'll get along very well."
"Okay, I'm leaving now."
These words were spoken to Yi Yi. Seeing that she didn't react, Mu Nanxun coughed lightly, "I'm really leaving."
Everyone was puzzled as to when Mu Nanxun, who was usually decisive, had become so long-winded. He had been talking about leaving for a long time, but he hadn't even taken a step.
Yi Yi said "Oh," blushing as she walked over. The next second, Mu Nanxun leaned down slightly and kissed Yi Yi's smooth forehead.
Yes, I gave him a kiss.
It turns out that Mu Nanxun hadn't left the house for half a day, waiting for this very moment.
Everyone in the villa was forced to eat a bowl full of dog food as soon as they woke up in the morning, and they were all reluctant to accept it.
The two of them then staged a dramatic scene at the door, a scene filled with tenderness and reluctance to part.
Mu Wenya couldn't stand it anymore and kicked him out.
No one noticed the sharp glint in Xia Bingqing's eyes.

At first, Yi Yi was still somewhat wary of Xia Bingqing. However, after a whole morning, Xia Bingqing didn't make things difficult for her at all, and genuinely just wanted to chat with her. Yi Yi gradually lowered her guard.
Around noon, Xia Bingqing instructed her servants to boil a pot of hot water, saying she wanted Yi Yi to have tea with her. The servants first brewed a cup of fine fragrant bamboo tea for each of them, then stood guard about four or five meters away from them.
Xia Bingqing reached out to grab her teacup, but Yi Yi, worried that she might burn her hand, quickly handed it to her.
"Thank you. Yi Yi, I was so immature before, I did so many things that hurt you. Can you forgive me?"
Xia Bingqing's attitude was simply outrageously good.
"Well, to say I've completely forgiven you, it might still be a while before I can," Yi Yi answered honestly.
Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise seemed to flash in Xia Bingqing's eyes. She frowned and said, "I've already apologized to you so humbly, and you still can't forgive me? Aren't you being too narrow-minded?"
