Bai Xianyu looked into his eyes. It was a deep, complicated, and careful emotion that would never appear on Xie Xingyun, but it clearly appeared.

It was similar to the emotion she once felt when she looked at him.

It was clearly fondness.

She had heard Ji Shuang say before that a man like Xie Xingyun was either extremely indifferent or loved someone so much that he would spend his whole life and exhaust all he had.

Bai Xianyu thought to herself, Actually, one could not hide the look in one’s eyes when one liked someone, even if the person was Xie Xingyun.

“Oh.” She had seen through him. She continued to sit back to bask in the sun.

Sigh, the heavens were really fair. What went around came around.

The girl sat in the courtyard in the shadows of the trees. The fragrance of the plants around mixed with the faint medicinal fragrance on her body. It was quiet and beautiful.

Xie Xingyun sneered.

She did not know that the way she looked now was like she was emboldened by the fact that he loved her.

But he liked it very much.

If only she had been more willful, he would have indulged her.

Xie Xingyun did not stay with her for long. After a while, he was asked to leave by the guards.

The moment he left, Bai Jingyuan entered.

Bai Xianyu smiled, “Brother.”

Bai Jingyuan’s gaze softened. “Are you feeling better?”

“Mmm-hmm.”

Bai Jingyuan walked forward and took out the things in his sleeve. There were a lot of bottles and jars. He pointed at them one by one and said, “This big jar contains potion. The medium jar is for treating wounds. The remaining small bottles are filled with ointment. Get your maidservant to apply it for you every day to prevent your wound from scarring in the future.”

Bai Xianyu acknowledged and nodded, “Alright.”

“Second Brother asked someone to send these over. He’s already on the way back to the capital. He’ll arrive in two days.”

“Alright.” Bai Jingyuan coughed twice and Bai Xianyu stood up. “Brother, wait a moment. I’ll get someone to take a look at you.”

“You don’t go. Let Bai Li go.” Bai Jingyuan glanced at Bai Li, who nodded. “Who do you wish to see?”

“Gu Yu.”

“Yes.”

Not long after, Bai Li brought Gu Yu over. Gu Yu swayed in with a medicine box hanging, looking like a wandering doctor. “Brother Bai, I’ve heard a lot about you!”

Bai Jingyuan nodded and said calmly, “I’ve heard a lot about you.”

Bai Xianyu briefly introduced Gu Yu, who waved his hand happily. “It’s all just an empty reputation. The world has exaggerated it.”

Bai Jingyuan had come here in a hurry these few times and had never bumped into Gu Yu. When he heard what Bai Xianyu had said, he took a second look at him in surprise.

Empress Li was originally seriously ill and on the verge of death, but this person could actually bring him back to life. No one knew where he came from.

Bai Jingyuan’s gaze was deep, but Gu Yu had already taken his pulse. A moment later, he put down his hand and smiled. “It’s not a big issue. Just use my prescription, take a round or two, and you’ll be fine.”

Bai Jingyuan said, “Thank you.”

Gu Yu waved his hand nonchalantly. “You’re welcome. I’ll get a pen and some ink to write you the prescription.”

As he was writing, Ji Shuang came in with some items. When she saw Bai Xianyu standing in the courtyard and looking at her with curved eyes, her eyes welled up. She handed the items to the maidservant and walked up to Bai Xianyu to hold her hand. “How are you? Does it still hurt?”

Bai Xianyu shook her head and smiled. “I’m fine.”

The expression on Ji Shuang’s face was rather cold, but anyone who saw her could feel her current excitement. “No, I have to look at the wound to be at ease.”

Xie Xingyun heard this the moment he returned. His expression was a little ugly. “Her bandages should not be removed frequently.”

Bai Xianyu and the others turned to look at him.

Xie Xingyun ignored everyone’s gazes and walked straight to Bai Xianyu. He frowned. “Why are you calling Gu Yu again? Does your wound hurt?”

Bai Xianyu shook her head. “I asked him to treat my brother.”

Xie Xingyun relaxed a little. “Emm.”

Bai Xianyu’s gaze paused on his face for two seconds before she glanced at Gu Yu. So did he turn back because he had seen Bai Li invite Gu Yu here?

Bai Jingyuan did not like the way he looked at Bai Xianyu. He took a step forward and separated Xie Xingyun and Bai Xianyu’s gazes.

Ji Shuang asked, “Why is he here?”

Bai Xianyu briefly explained. As Ji Shuang had not been invited, she did not know why Xie Xingyun was here.

Xie Xingyun’s line of sight was blocked by Bai Jingyuan, and his eyes instantly became nonchalant. “I just came to see her.”

Bai Jingyuan recalled those rumors and frowned. “Don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to.”

Xie Xingyun smiled disapprovingly. “The entire capital knows what I’m up to.”

Bai Xianyu,”…”
