Warm Injury Nutmeg

Chapter 2

Bai Yi looked natural and without affectation, so she nodded her head with trust. Men didn't necessarily have to be lovers, friends or brothers, did they? Thinking of this, she chuckled, but she didn't know that someone misunderstood her meaning.

###Chapter2,First Visit to Yan Residence

Following Baiyi and Yan Jingyi to the Yan Mansion, Xiao Jinyun's expression was really strange. It could be said that she was too surprised. She did not expect to meet a rich man with a casual dress. The two stone lions in front of the mansion had an unusual charm, which made people feel serious. But from the outside, she felt that the internal meeting was exquisite.

Otherwise, there would be many flowers, plants, and trees in the Yan residence. There were countless houses with carved beams and painted pillars. There was also a small lake in the house. When the sun directly shined down, the ripples were golden and beautiful. Xiao Jinyun had seen such a big mansion before, such as the Forbidden City. However, she had never lived in it before. When she thought that she had to experience it herself, the smile on her face could not help but increase.

"It seems that you two are quite rich." Xiao Jinyun smiled and teased, "But don't you think it's lonely to live in such a big place?"

Hearing Xiao Jinyun's question, the two of them were stunned. That's right, such a big place, how could it not be quiet? But could there be a way? No, they were destined to bear it. There were some things that could not be decided by them. Feeling their own absent-mindedness, the two of them were annoyed at the same time. They had lost control of themselves too many times today.

"With such a big place, Miss Xiao's place of residence is no longer a problem." Bai Yi said, changing the topic.

Xiao Jinyun noticed that Bai Yi was always smiling, making others feel very comfortable. However, she did not like such a gentle smile. She always felt that something was missing. His smile seemed to be innately gentle, just like the smile of a smiling face. She would not change it, which made her feel uncomfortable.

"You don't have to call me Miss Xiao. It sounds awkward. You can just call me Jin Yun or Yun'er. My friends call me like this." Xiao Jin Yun smiled and said. Even though she felt that she was hypocritical, she could only continue.

She had no relatives or friends here, so why should they help her? As the saying goes, one more friend had another way out. Although there were many hypocrites, it didn't mean that they couldn't meet a normal person. What's more, the two people in front of her were simply too big, so it was better to hold firmly in their hands. It was better to be at ease and be at ease. After making up her mind, she was relieved, without the previous guilt or shyness, and naturally accosted.

Yan Yi also curled his lips and casually said, "Could it be that you've met people who introduced you like this?"

"What?" Xiao Jinyun did not react for a moment and quickly asked.

"When I said 'I like women', and your strange and long-winded life background, again, you are so friendly to everyone who you meet. Do you want them to call you like these?" Yan Yi also asked, feeling a little uncomfortable.

"Oh, I'm telling the truth. Is there anything hard to introduce? It's right to tell the truth when you go out," Xiao Jinyun said without blushing or feeling nervous.

"The truth?" Yan Yi also asked softly. His voice was really light, so light that it would disappear as the wind blew.

Xiao Jinyun looked at him with a side face, as if she didn't hear what he said clearly.

Bai Yi slightly tilted his eyes and said,"Yi, let Uncle Yan prepare a room for Aunt Xiao... Jinyi." When he blurted out that he wanted to call her 'Miss Xiao', he suddenly received Xiao Jinyun's threatening look and immediately changed his mind. The look under the eyelids suddenly dimmed, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Bai Yi said that "Uncle Yan" was the butler of Yan Mansion. He had been in Yan Mansion for decades. It could be said that he was the most loyal person in Yan Mansion. Because of this, all the people in Yan Mansion respected him.

As soon as the voice fell, a middle-aged man in his fifties hurried over in the distance. As soon as he came to the front, he shouted excitedly, "Young Master, Childe Bai, you are back!" The tears in his eyes kept swimming, as if he had encountered something difficult to say.

Xiao Jinyun looked at the man in front of her. Although time had left a lot of marks on his face, he looked very energetic and there was no sign of sloppiness. He was full of energy and looked like the kind of delicate person. There was also the kind aura on his body, which made people want to get close inadvertently.

"Uncle Yan, what's wrong?" Bai Yi asked faintly. He did not lose his composure because of the man in front of him.

After listening to this, Xiao Xinyun finally understood that this person was the butler of Yan Mansion. Yan Ruo saw a woman wearing the clothes of Sir Bai standing next to her young master, and she couldn't help but wonder. Childe and Childe Bai went out together. How did Childe Bai bring a woman back? Without saying anything else, Yan Ruo first denied Xiao Xinyun. How could such an innocent woman be so frivolous? If Xiao Xinyun knew what she was thinking, she really didn't know what she would respond.

Yan Yiyi also stared at Xiao Jinyun, and only then did he remember to introduce her, "Uncle Yan, this is something that I met with Senior Brother in the red forest. We are temporarily homeless, so Senior Brother and I want her to stay in the house for a while. Please help her find a guest room and a few clever girls."

"No need, I'm used to doing my own things. It's enough to have a room." Xiao Jinyun refused without hesitation.

"Are you kidding me? I'm a new human in the 21st century. Why do I have to do these things? Besides, there are plenty of treasures in my bag. If I take them on a whim, I'll have to take precautions against those girls. Otherwise, I'll be exhausted."

Inadvertently, she met a pair of eyes that were filled with contempt. In the blink of an eye, it was filled with smiles. Xiao Jinyun shook her head. She must have seen wrongly. There was no enmity between her and him. How could he look at her with that kind of gaze?

"Leave this matter to me." Yan Ruo replied with a similar sentence. She turned around and said to Bai Yi with a vexed expression, "Sir Bai, my daughter's illness suddenly relapses and I have to trouble you again."

"It relapses again? It's impossible. Well, I'll go with you right now." Bai Yi frowned slightly and said.

Looking at Bai Yi and Yan Ruruo's retreating figures, Xiao Xinyun could not help but ask, "Yan Ji, is Bai Yi a doctor? Also, is Housekeeper Yan's daughter badly ill?"

Yan Jingyi stared at Xiao Jinyun for a while. Just when she thought he wouldn't answer, he narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "Xin'er's mother had a hard time giving birth to her when she was born. Because Xin'er gave birth at a young age, her health was not good and she had an inborn illness. Senior brother has always been treating her illness all these years. She's much better now, but she's still very weak."

Xiao Jinyun nodded, not fully understanding his words. Judging from her facial features, the constitution of this girl called "Xin'er" was indeed too weak. It was no wonder that Housekeeper Yan was so anxious. Xiao Jinyun sighed in relief. What did other people have to do with her? Maybe she would wear it in a few days? Although she had to admit that this chance was small, she still couldn't help thinking. She couldn't forget her "girlfriends". In fact, even she herself didn't know what kind of person she liked. It was just because of the pain in her heart that she wasn't willing to get in touch with men that she found the simple and beautiful feelings between women. That was her first love, her long love, and her failure...

At this point, Xiao Jinyun's face unconsciously showed a trace of pain. How long had it been since she remembered that period of time? She didn't expect that she couldn't forget it until now. She smiled bitterly, and the corner of her mouth was full of sarcasm.

Yan Jing also looked at her strange reaction, and the pain and smile on her face made him confused. He wondered if he had made a wrong judgment. After a while, he looked at the clothes she was wearing and said, "Yun'er, why don't you change your clothes first? When you come to the hall later, we can have dinner soon."

Xiao Jinyun thanked him and followed the maidservant to walk away. She followed the maidservant to the corridor across the small lake. She was a little intoxicated in the autumn wind that smelled like lake water, and did not feel any coldness brought about by autumn.

"Miss Xiao, this is the guest room that Director Yan prepared for you. Please come in." The maidservant who walked in front suddenly stopped and opened a door on the left side. She made a "please" gesture and said with a smile.

Only then did Xiao Jinyun begin to size up the servant girl in front of her. Although her facial appearance was ordinary, her eyes were as bright as the autumn moon and hard to forget. She couldn't help but be confused. As she walked into the house, she asked, "You don't have to be so reserved. I'm not a lady from a rich family, I'm just a little girl in an acting class. You can call me Jinyun. By the way, what's your name?"

"Miss Xiao, my name is Chu Chu, and I was hired by the housekeeper to serve you." Chu Chu chuckled and did not care about what Xiao Jinyun said just now. She added, "No matter what Miss did in the past, she is now a guest of the Yan Mansion. Naturally, we don't dare to make friends with her. Please don't put her in a difficult position."

Xiao Jinyun pursed her lips. Didn't she say that she didn't want a maidservant? Why did she give her one? She felt a little dissatisfied in her heart, but it was not good to say anything more. After all, this was not in her house. It was better to listen to their arrangements. She looked at her up and down and found that she was not old, maybe even younger than herself. Thinking of such unequaled system in ancient times, she felt a little sad. If she hadn't met Yan Youyi and Bai Yi, where would she be now? She sighed and said faintly, "Forget it, do as you say."

"Miss Xiao, please change your clothes." Chu Chu took a piece of clothes from somewhere and handed it to her respectfully.

Xiao Jinyun glanced at it. It was fine that she didn't look at it. There was a big problem with this glance. The color of this dress was too red, it was completely red. She didn't hate the red color, but she couldn't say that she liked it. How long had it been since she touched this kind of red thing? One year? Two years? She didn't even know. If she refused it, it would be too delicate, so she had to force herself to ask Chu Chu, "Can you help me change another color? I don't like red."
