Ying Xixi was speaking the truth and really felt that way.
But to Yin Huaixu, her words seemed like she was distancing herself from him.
"My way of repaying a favor is not to make my benefactor my servant."
Yin Huaixu grabbed Ying Xixi's wrist and pulled her in front of him, his voice low.
Ying Xixi looked into Yin Huaixu's deep and bottomless black eyes, and her heart beat violently.
She had a vague feeling that Yin Huaixu seemed to be about to say something extraordinary, so she spoke quickly before he opened his mouth.
"But sir, I do think we don't need to talk about repaying a favor anymore. The favor has already been repaid."
Yin Huaixu's gaze was fixed on Ying Xixi's eyes.
"Not yet. I owe you my life-saving grace, and I will repay you with my body. How about I repay you for saving my life with my body?"
He spoke every word with a firm tone, not joking.
Ying Xixi's eyelids twitched and she looked away.
"Sir, but, but I am a man! This, this..."
"You should know better than me whether you are a man or not."
Yin Huaixu leaned over and whispered these words in Ying Xixi's ear.
Ying Xixi's eyes suddenly widened.
“!!!”
When did Yin Huaixu find out that she was not a man? !
"Xiao Xi, spending these days with you has made me realize that I really like you.
Are you willing to leave with me? I would like to repay you for saving my life by marrying me."
Yin Huaixu looked at Ying Xixi and spoke the words of confession so sweetly.
Ying Xixi: “!!!”
She didn't know what to say for a moment.
Yin Huaixu discovered her gender and confessed his love for her, saying he was willing to marry her. This completely disrupted her original plan!
When did Yin Huaixu realize she was a woman? When did he fall in love with her?!
Ying Xixi held her forehead and tried to calm down.
Yin Huaixu didn't urge her, just held her wrist and waited.
Ying Xixi took a deep breath and looked up at Yin Huaixu.
"When did you find out I was a woman?"
"I knew it the morning after you saved me when I saw your ear piercings and the unpainted skin on the back of your neck."
Yin Huaixu answered honestly.
Ying Xixi: “….”
It was discovered so early!
No wonder Yin Huaixu didn't let her help him take a bath, undress, change medicine, etc.
"Then why didn't you expose me and bring me here to the bamboo house?"
Yin Huaixu raised a smile at the corner of his lips, "Because you are my savior."
Ying Xixi sighed, "Sir, although I don't know your identity, I can tell that you are either rich or noble.
I'm just an orphan and not worthy of you.
I just want to be free and travel around the world, that's all.
My Lord, I appreciate your kindness, but I cannot accept it."
The smile on Yin Huaixu's lips disappeared.
"No one can interfere with my marriage. I love you and only want you to be my wife.
I don't believe you don't have me in your heart at all!"
Yin Huaixu stared at Ying Xixi closely, and the aggression emanating from him made her unconsciously take a step back.
Ying Xixi bit her lip and met Yin Huaixu's gaze, "Sir, I really don't have you in my heart at all!
From the very beginning, we are not from the same world!
I know my own limitations and never dare to harbor any feelings for you!"
Ying Xixi answered decisively.
Yin Huaixu's breath hitched as he stared into her eyes, trying to detect affection or duplicity in them, but there was none at all.
He slowly released his big hand that was holding Ying Xixi's wrist.
"You really don't want to leave with me?"
Ying Xixi nodded, looking at him firmly, "Yes."
Yin Huaixu closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he saw a surging darkness in them, "Okay, now I'm being hunted, and taking you with me will indeed harm you.
I can let you go this time, but if you let me meet you again next time, I will tie you up and bring you to my side even if I have to!"
Ying Xixi pursed her lips, "Probably... there won't be a next time. I'm going to go cook."
She left after saying this.
Yin Huaixu returned to the window and sat down, looking lonely.
Ying Xixi went to the kitchen and started cooking. She thought about what had happened in the past few days. To be honest, she never thought that Yin Huaixu would still like her.
If she hadn't died, she could have been with Yin Huaixu naturally.
But unfortunately, the original owner was destined to die three times and be reborn twice, and she didn’t know if she could escape it.
Regardless of whether she could avoid it or not, if she agreed to Yin Huaixu now, it would be really irresponsible to him.
It is very hurtful to get something and then lose it completely by separation from the living and the dead.
Ying Xixi took a deep breath, put the matter aside for the time being, and started washing rice and cooking.
Everyone is leaving tonight, so let's make something more substantial and fry some pancakes for the journey.
In the evening, Ying Xixi silently delivered Yin Huaixu's meal to his room.
She didn't know whether Yin Huaixu wanted her to have dinner with him tonight, so she stood aside without saying anything.
Yin Huaixu picked up his chopsticks and said calmly, "Let them all come and eat together."
"good."
Ying Xixi went next door, and An Yi, An Er, and An Wu came over with food.
"Master, we will leave after dinner. This is our last meal here.
I didn't expect you to be willing to dine with us, I'm truly flattered!"
"We'll leave after we finish eating. We'll pack up later."
"What do we have to pack?"
"If you tidy up, there will always be something to tidy up."
An Yi, An Er, and An Wu started chatting.
Yin Huaixu ate in silence and did not stop them from talking.
Ying Xixi poked the rice with her chopsticks and said nothing, but was still asked.
"Xiao Xi, do you want to leave with us tonight?"
An Wu asked her.
"Yes, I have already made an agreement with you. I will leave here with you tonight and get off the carriage when we get to a place with people."
When the three of them heard this, they understood what she meant.
"Xiao Xi, you... don't you want to go with us?"
Ying Xixi smiled and said, "Big Brother, Second Brother, Fifth Brother, you have things you want to do, and I have things I want to do.
All good things must come to an end. If we are destined to meet, we will meet again in the future."
An Wu looked at her reluctantly, "Xiao Xi, I will miss you."
"Have a meal!"
Yin Huaixu, who had been silent all this time, said two words in a cold voice as soon as An Wu finished speaking.
The three secret guards were so frightened that they immediately fell silent and buried their heads in eating.
They finished their meal in silence. Ying Xixi stood up to clean up the dishes, and An Wu also helped her clean up and took them to the kitchen.
Ying Xixi cleaned up the kitchen and divided the fried pancakes into two portions, one for herself and one for Yin Huaixu and the others, then went back to the house to pack her bags.
She had nothing to pack, just a few changes of clothes.
"Xiao Xi, the master wants you to come over and help pack the luggage."
Anwu poked his head in and called her.
