Bai Jian's lips curled up slightly, clearly amused by Shi Xi's casual remark.
When you come to the Bai family's territory, Bai Jian should be at ease and not stand on ceremony.
Bai Jian sat opposite Shi Xi, staring blankly at Shi Xi, who was cupping her face in her hands.
Shi Xi awkwardly lowered her hands, placing her right hand on the table and her left hand on top of her right. She sat up straight, her gaze level, like a diligent student listening attentively to a lecture.
Is this sitting posture okay?
Bai Jian smiled and looked down. Shi Xizhen was so cute!
"Miss Shi, I'd like to ask you for a favor, is that alright?"
"Sure, sure, go ahead."
Shi Xi's decisiveness surprised Bai Jian. Shi Xi hadn't even asked what help she needed before agreeing.
The sky outside was gloomy, a grayish-white sky with a hazy feel to it; it was about to snow.
Bai Jian: "Aren't you going to ask me what kind of help I need?"
Shi Xi smiled and said, "No need. I will definitely help you if I can."
Who can blame her for enjoying helping others!
Most importantly, she's a fan of the Bai Bai and Bai Jian couple, and her own son's wife, so of course she has to help!
Bai Zaizai's wife, Jian: "Miss Shi, now only Master Bai is left in the Bai family. I would like to ask... please keep Master company and have a word with him."
Shi Xi looked at herself, "Me?"
At this time, it should be Zaizai's wife who goes to keep Bai Bai company!
Zai Zai's wife: "Master likes you. I think you should go and keep him company. His mood will definitely improve."
Shi Xi: ? ? ?
Zai Zai's wife continued, "Master really likes you. The strips of cloth you used to bandage his wounds were kept by him and are in his safe. You are a woman he likes. If you go and talk to him, spend some time with him, he probably won't..."
"Wait, wait, wait, you're saying... Bai Bai... likes me?"
Oh my god!
What's going on lately? First it was Di Shi, then it was Bai Bai. When did she become so popular?
Most importantly, when did Bai Bai fall in love?
Zai Zai's wife nodded.
Shi Xi rubbed her forehead, her head throbbing. "You brought back the strips of cloth for nothing?"
Two years ago, in the winter, Di Chenxiao was chasing Bai Yanlang. Shi Xi was also fleeing at the time and happened to encounter Bai Yanlang, who was seriously injured. She cut her clothes into strips and used them to bandage Bai Yanlang's wounds.
Originally in the book, it was the female lead, Lu Yishan, who saved Bai Yanlang, and Bai Yanlang fell in love with her because of this incident.
She thought her arrival would change the fate of Bai Yanlang falling in love with Lu Yishan in the book.
Nothing has changed at all; they've simply transformed Lu Yishan into her!
Shi Xizhen really wanted to knock on this blockhead's head. How could he be so... oblivious when it came to matters of the heart?
"Hey, Bai Jian, I only see Bai Bai as my son... friend. There's no romantic feeling between us. You have to believe me!" She almost blurted out "son."
Bai Jian chuckled at Shi Xi's anxious explanation, which was practically swearing to the heavens. "I know you have no other feelings for your master, so you don't need to explain to me."
"Of course I have to explain to you, you are..." Zai Zai's wife.
What am I?
Shi Xi lowered her head, scratched her head awkwardly, and almost gave herself away, "No, it's nothing."
"I'll talk to Bai Bai. Bai Bai isn't a fragile person, so don't worry too much."
Then, the two fell silent. Shi Xi was engrossed in what her son liked, while Bai Jian was worried about whether Bai Yanlang could overcome the shadows of his childhood.
After Bai Yanlang and Di Chenxiao finished their conversation, Bai Jian led Bai Yanlang to the warm pavilion and then left, leaving only Shi Xi and Bai Yanlang behind.
