Lady, let me explain.

Chapter 8 Jia Mansion
The carriage was shaking, and Lin Yi took a deep breath before opening his eyes.

Of course, Daiyu was not wearing a veil hat late at night. The curtains of the carriage were lifted to let in the wind, and the moonlight reflected on her snow-white face.

Daiyu's facial features were as cold as moonlight, her slender eyebrows were slightly furrowed, her eyes were filled with sorrow and mist, and her lips were as pale as cherry blossoms.

I feel really sorry for myself...

Daiyu was originally in a daze. After feeling the gaze, she looked at Lin Yi, then lowered her head, her face slightly flushed.

After admiring it for a moment, Lin Yi looked away.

Just as he was thinking, Yue Lingshan handed him a medicine bottle: "Brother Ping, you were injured just now, you need to apply some medicine. I want to drive, can you do it yourself?"

Lin Yi took the medicine bottle and thought to himself, "Miss Lin is still here. How can I pollute her eyes? I only have some minor injuries. I'm fine."

Daiyu hurriedly said, "We have to make the necessary arrangements in this emergency. Young Master Lin's treatment is the most important thing. All of this is caused by us. We have dragged Young Master Lin and Lady Yue down with us. I am truly sorry."

When Yue Lingshan heard this, she hurried to comfort him.

Lin Yi laughed secretly in his heart. It felt strange to hear these words coming from the sarcastic Lin Duidui.

However, Daiyu was only ruthless with words to people she knew. Now that she had met him by chance and received his kindness, of course she had to be respectful and behave politely.

"Then I'm sorry."

As he spoke, Lin Yi took off his robe. Daiyu was caught off guard and was stunned for a moment. Only after she reacted did she turn her head and look away.

The Lin family is a family that has passed down poetry and literature and attaches great importance to etiquette. Daiyu has no brothers in her family, and she has rarely spoken to men since she was a child, let alone seen a man's body.

Daiyu closed her eyes, her little face was so red that blood seemed to drip out, and she felt like her heart was about to jump out.

Although Lin Yi is not strong, he is a martial artist and his muscles are very obvious.

One can imagine the strong impact that scene had on the innocent Daiyu...

Daiyu felt ashamed and angry, but she also thought that Lin Yi was a man of the world, so it was normal for him to be casual.

After a while, seeing that Lin Yi had not finished applying the medicine, she couldn't help but take another look.

It turned out that the wound was on the back, and Lin Yi applied the medicine with his backhand, which was very inconvenient.

Daiyu looked at Xueyan beside her. Xueyan was also blushing with shame and had her eyes closed, not daring to look.

She had an idea, but she hesitated...

It was already inappropriate for her, an unmarried girl, to ride in the same car with a man, not to mention looking at his naked body and applying medicine for him.

Daiyu shook her head, thinking to herself, "Young Master Lin and his wife, strangers to us, were willing to risk their lives for us. Now that he's injured, they're hesitant to apply medicine to him. Isn't that ungrateful?"

Daiyu no longer hesitated and carefully reached out to take the medicine bottle from Lin Yi's hand - Lin Yi looked at her.

Daiyu lowered her head, her lips tightly pursed. She said nothing, and Lin Yi certainly didn't say anything either, he just watched.

Daiyu poured the medicinal mud on her white little hand and then stretched out her trembling hand.

Lin Yi turned around, unable to suppress the smile any longer.

A cool, soft hand was placed on his back, massaging it gently.

Although there were waves of pain in the wound, Lin Yi felt very good... These innocent girls are so easy to fool.

After a while, Daiyu returned the medicine bottle to Lin Yi. Seeing Xueyan still with her eyes tightly closed, she breathed a sigh of relief...

They didn't make any sound just now, so Xueyan and Lady Yue didn't know about it. They just had to pretend nothing happened. Young Master Lin is a man of high moral character and will definitely not tell anyone else.

"Miss Lin, you must have been scared when those people came just now?" Yue Lingshan suddenly asked with a smile outside the car.

Daiyu was startled...

After Lin Yi recovered for a while, he got out of the car and drove, letting Yue Lingshan go in to rest.

When Daiyu saw this, she praised Lin Yi's character and felt that the couple was very loving.

As they were traveling at night and there were no outsiders around, the four of them chatted happily, and Daiyu even started calling them Brother Lin and Sister Yue.

Especially when listening to Yue Lingshan talk about her experiences in the martial arts world, Daiyu and Xueyan were fascinated and very much yearned for it.

Although these women from wealthy families have a life of luxury, they have been confined to their own little world since childhood and have never left the house.

Compared with Yue Lingshan, a girl from the martial arts world who has suffered but is free, I really don’t know who should envy whom.

When the three girls were chatting, Lin Yi rarely interrupted, but when they talked about the Jia family where Daiyu went, he had something to say.

"The Jia family has two sons, which makes them extremely wealthy. However, this family has been a century-old family, and its wealth has long been eroded."

Lin Yi knew Daiyu's innocent and straightforward nature and would not take it personally if he spoke ill of the Jia family, so he naturally had no scruples. Daiyu hurriedly asked why he had said this.

Lin Yi said, "As the saying goes, the grace of a gentleman is cut off after five generations. Nowadays, many of the Jia family, from masters to servants, enjoy honor and glory, indulge in extravagant displays, but not a single one is capable of planning and strategizing."

"Without high-ranking officials in the court and great generals in the army, even if one possesses great wealth and status, can one maintain their position in these troubled times? Worst of all, the clan lacks education, and their descendants are becoming inferior to the previous generation."

The three women in the car were silent for a moment after hearing this.

Yue Lingshan just thought that Brother Ping was indeed an educated man and knew a lot.

Daiyu came from a family of officials and had a better understanding of this. After listening to Lin Yi's analysis, she found it very convincing and believed it for a while.

But the Jia family is her maternal family, and she must protect it in front of outsiders.

"Brother Lin's words are biased. The Jia family also has a clan school, and poetry and etiquette are passed down from generation to generation. How can we not promote education?"

Lin Yi smiled and said bluntly, "I'm only talking about one person—there's a young master in the Rong Mansion named Baoyu, who is actually your cousin."

"This man was born with a jade in his mouth, and he's quite famous. He's never been to a proper school, and he's neither good at literature nor martial arts. He spends his days hanging out with the maids in the backyard."

"When he turned one, he didn't pick up brushes, ink, paper, or inkstone, but instead put on rouge. He even famously said, 'Girls are made of water, men are made of mud. I feel refreshed when I see a girl, but I feel a foul stench when I see a man.' He was truly a dissolute and playboy."

In the carriage, Yue Lingshan and Xueyan laughed heartily when they heard the funny stories, but when it came to Daiyu's cousin, she couldn't laugh at all!

Daiyu retorted, "Isn't Brother Lin from Fujian Province cultivating on Mount Hua? How can he know so much about the family in Shenjing? Could it be that he just heard it from someone else?"

"Whether it's hearsay or not, you'll know when you go there."

Lin Yi laughed and said, "In ancient times, Sleeping Dragon lived in a thatched cottage, yet he knew everything about the world. Not only do I know everything about the world, I can even predict the future. Guess what the first thing that dude said when he saw you was?"

After Daiyu heard him finish his story about her cousin and then tease her again, she gritted her teeth and asked, "What?"

"Miss Lin is naturally beautiful. When that playboy sees her, he will definitely say, 'I've seen this girl before.'"

Yue Lingshan and Xueyan reacted and burst into laughter.

Daiyu was both angry and embarrassed: "Great, so it turns out that Brother Lin just made it up!"

"I still don't know the moral character of these young masters. You will know whether it is true or not in the future."

"How do you know what will happen in the future?"

"Then let's make a bet?"

"What are you gambling?"

Lin Yi pretended to think for a moment: "Can I still bet with you on yellow and white things? How about this, the loser agrees to one request from the other party."

Daiyu thought, how could anyone predict something that hadn't happened? She immediately agreed, already thinking about what request she would make!

……

After that, he quickened his journey and arrived in the capital in less than three days, and sent Daiyu to the Rong Mansion.

It was already dark at this time, so Lin Yi and the others stayed overnight in Rong Mansion and decided to set off west to Guangmingding the next day.

Lin Yi and his wife rescued Daiyu and escorted her all the way. Of course, they were distinguished guests of the Rong Mansion and were treated warmly at a banquet that night.

During the banquet, small words suddenly flashed before Lin Yi's eyes.

[Role: Lin Daiyu]

【Level: B】

[Destiny Deviation: 70%]

[Gain 21 points...]

Lin Yi was overjoyed and immediately understood the reason.

Jia Baoyu's first sentence was right.

First, he gave a detailed introduction to Jia Baoyu. Although Daiyu did not believe it completely, she had a preconceived impression of him.

Then when they met, as Lin Yi expected, Jia Baoyu said, "I have seen this sister before."

Daiyu was so shocked that she no longer doubted Lin Yi and believed everything he said.

Daiyu came from a prominent family. She studied and learned etiquette since childhood and had an intelligent personality. She knew about Jia Baoyu's various bad habits and despicable character from the beginning. How could she have secretly fallen in love with him in the future?
In this way, her fate naturally changed drastically.
