Chapter 216
Since Madam Zheng had spoken, Yun Wan could no longer stop them, even if she didn't want to. She could only watch helplessly as Shen Rang and Yun Xi left.
"You shameless woman!" Yun Wan gritted her teeth in anger. "How is it that she deserves to be praised? What is she supposed to do in front of the young master?!"
Pearl sighed helplessly, "Young Madam, the young master is already like that, why did you still agree with what you were saying just now?"
In her opinion, this matter cannot be blamed on Yunxi; it was simply that Yunwan failed to seize the opportunity.
"What do you want me to do? Didn't the doctor say that the young master is fine?" Yun Wan said irritably. "Besides, I am the young mistress. I should always put the big picture first. I would never stoop to such pretentious behavior!"
Hearing this, Pearl could only sigh.
So what if it's all just for show? As long as it works, that's all that matters, isn't it?
After a moment of silence, Yun Wan calmed down and said, "Go and pick out some things that the young master will need to recover from his injuries, and come with me to Ji Bai Residence."
"yes."
——
Ji Baiju.
Shen Rang was leaning against the bed watching Yun Xi, who was holding a bowl of mutton soup and drinking it with relish.
Feeling a little uncomfortable under his gaze, Yunxi said, "Young Master, perhaps I should go to the kitchen and urge them to hurry up."
“No rush,” Shen Rang said, “I’m not hungry.”
He had just been beaten up and his back was still aching, so he didn't feel hungry at all. However, he couldn't take his eyes off Yunxi.
Yunxi felt embarrassed by his gaze, so she simply stopped drinking, put the soup bowl aside, and looked at Chen Rang, hesitant to speak.
"come over."
Yunxi did as she was told and sat down on the edge of the bed.
Shen Rang held her hand and told Yun Xi what Shen Jun had said to him. Finally, he asked, "Xi'er, if you were in my position now, what would you do about this?"
His gaze held a hint of encouragement.
Yunxi thought quietly for a long time before saying, "If it were me, I probably wouldn't break with His Highness the Crown Prince."
Meeting Shen Rang's gaze, Yun Xi said, "Even if you're not under His Highness the Crown Prince's tutelage, His Highness will still act against whomever he wants. Now that His Highness is listening to you, why not persuade him to stop? If it doesn't work this time, you can try again next time. It's better than just standing by and watching after you leave His Highness the Crown Prince, isn't it?"
Yunxi spoke slowly and gently, as always, seemingly possessing a magical ability to soothe people's hearts. As Shen Rang listened, his eyes suddenly lit up.
yes.
Even if he really breaks with the Crown Prince, it won't really change anything.
If you patiently and kindly talk to the Crown Prince, he might change his mind. It's better than blocking the path altogether.
Shen Rang slowly exhaled a breath of stale air: "...Xi'er, thank goodness I have you."
If it weren't for Yunxi, he probably would have gone further and further down this dead end.
Yunxi smiled sweetly: "It's good that I can help Zirong."
Shen Rang remained silent, but his large hand tightened slightly, firmly holding Yun Xi's hand.
Just then, the door to the warm pavilion was suddenly pushed open, and Yun Wan walked in with a smile. Her gaze sharpened slightly when it fell on the two people's tightly clasped hands: "It seems I've come at the wrong time?"
Yunxi rose and bowed respectfully, her manners impeccable, a faint smile on her face, but she remained silent.
Good to know.
