Xie Xingyim half raised his eyes and looked a little tired. “Xiao Zheng did it.”

Xiao Zheng, who was outside, was speechless.

“Xiao Zheng?”

Xie Xingyun’s expression did not change. “He said that he knew how to make peach blossom cakes, so 1 asked him to make a few. I tried them and thought that… they were not bad.”

Bai Xianyu looked at him sympathetically, “it’s been hard on you.”

Xie Xingyun,”…”

He could not help but ask, “Is it really that bad?”

Bai Xianyu thought for a moment. Xiao Zheng could be considered an acquaintance of hers, so she had to give him some face. “It’s okay, but just too hard.”

Both were silent. Xie Xingyun pur away the remaining pastries and wrapped them up. “I’ll go and buy some for you again.”

Bai Xianyu was a little sleepy. “No need.”

Seeing that she was yawning non-stop, Xie Xingyun could nor bear to disturb her rest.

“Then I’m leaving.”

“Ehm.”

Bai Xianyu nodded and walked in. At this moment, Xie Xingyun turned back. “Little Yu.”

She turned back, her eyes like stars. “Yes?”

Xie Xingyun’s gaze darkened. “I’m leaving the capital for a period of time.”

“Oh,” Bai Xianyu replied casually. “Have a safe trip then.”

She continued to walk towards the couch. After taking two steps, she realized that her wrist was being held by the man.

“What are you doing?”

Xie Xingyun gently rubbed her snow-while wrist and said in a low voice, “During this period, you’re not allowed to agree to someone else’s proposal.” it ii

“Don’t fall in love with another man.”

“You’re not allowed to…”

Bai Xianyu interrupted him. “You’re so long-winded. What can you do if 1 really fall in love with someone else? If 1 really marry someone else, will you even come and snatch the bride?”

“I will.”

Bai Xianyu’s sleepiness faded a little.

Xie Xingyun held her hand tightly, his eyes dark. “So, be good.”

He could not even guarantee what he would do.

Bai Xianyu sensed the stubbornness and faint danger in the man’s tone and changed the topic. “I’m going to sleep.’1

“One last thing.” Xie Xingyun leaned close to her ear, his warm breath touching her delicate earlobe.

“Let go.”

There was a rustling sound, and the lamp stand accidentally fell to the ground.

Bai Xianyu bit her lip and retreated to the head of the bed. The bed curtain trembled slightly.

This time, there was no way to retreat.

Xie Xingyun kissed her earlobe heavily and laughed in a low voice. “Remember to miss me.”

Two huge ships were moored at the dock. Servants walked back and forth on them, and a circle of guards around them looked serious.

Bai Xianyu alighted from the carriage, and the guards in the residence carried in her things one after another.

Green Pearl went to instruct them how to place the items.

She enjoyed the breeze on the pier for a while and squinted her eyes comfortably.

“Little Yu.”

Bai Jingyuan’s voice came from behind. Bai Xianyu smiled and turned around. The wind lifted the helm of her skirt. Her black hair was like satin, and her lips were red and her teeth were white.

Then, she saw Xie Xingyun, who had said goodbye to her yesterday.

The two of them, “…”

Bai Jingyuan saw that she had been looking at Xie Xingyun and frowned slightly, blocking her line of sight. “1 forgot to tell you that Xie Xingyun is my deputy this time. He will also be traveling to Liang Province together.”

The girl’s almond-shaped eyes widened slightly, as if they had been moistened by the morning mist. They were charming and a little dazed.

Xie Xingyun’s face was originally expressionless. After seeing her expression, his thin lips curled up slightly. “Looks like we have to spend half a month on this ship together.”

The corners of Bai Xianyu’s mouth froze. “Aren t there two?”

Xiao Zheng had already started moving things to another ship, but Xie Xingyim smiled. “1 think this ship is more pleasing to the eye.”

Bai Jingyuan frowned and stared at Xie Xingyim. “1 think you want my Eldest Brother to break your legs.”

Xie Xingyun,”…”

It was rare for Bai Xianyu to see Xie Xingyun suffer. She could not help but stand beside Bai Jingyuan and puli his sleeve obediently, silently supporting him through her actions.

This was the first time Xie Xingyun had been threatened like this. Not to mention whether anyone dared to say such a thing, even those who could say such a thing could not do it.

“I’ll take the other one.”

He had to restrain himself in front of his future brother-in-law. Otherwise, looking at how protective they were of her, he would probably not be able to get their good books in the future.

Xie Xingyun glanced ar Bai Xianyu and left with his sword.

Seeing him leave, Bai Xianyu smiled and said, “Thank you, Brother.”

Bai Jingyuan rubbed her hair. “What are you thanking me for? Is there anything else you want to eat? Brother will get someone to buy it.”

Bai Xianyu thought for a moment. “Lingfeng Restaurant’s pineapple crisps, soybean rolls, Linyue Pavilion’s water chestnut pastries, almond biscuits…”

“Are there so many things you wish to eat?” Bai Jingyuan smiled and said, “When did Little Yu become a little glutton?”

“But I just want to eat them.” The girl tugged at his sleeve in a pampered manner.

“Yes, I’ll buy them all for you.”

Bai Xianyu smiled sweetly. “Brother, you’re the best..”
