Yu Qingyin curled her lips, and the green in her hand flickered slightly.

"Where have you been so late?"

Ji Yanli's voice suddenly sounded from behind her, with casual concern.

Yu Qingyin's body stiffened and she turned around.

Ji Yanli was wearing a pair of loose striped pajamas with a slightly open neckline, revealing her delicate collarbone and faintly visible pectoral muscles, which aroused endless reverie.

A head of messy hair hung casually in front of his forehead, and his cold eyes were hazy with a look of just waking up. They were less fierce than during the day and more cute, making people unable to resist the urge to rub his head.

The last bit of doubt in Yu Qingyin's heart disappeared. It seemed that it was really a smart butler just now. She didn't expect that this smart butler was from the same department as Ji Yanli.

Yu Qingyin stretched, yawned, and spoke in a calm tone.

"I couldn't sleep, so I came out for a walk. Why aren't you sleeping yet?"

Ji Yanli smiled lazily, his pair of peach blossom eyes seemed to contain countless stars, making people sink into them unconsciously.

"I'm afraid that someone will sneak out again. After all, he has too many criminal records." There was a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

Yu Qingyin drooped her eyelashes and avoided his gaze. She didn't need to guess, she knew who the 'someone' he was talking about was.

Yu Qingyin responded bluntly, "Did you buy a suite on the Bagua Formation? You are speaking in a sarcastic tone."

Ji Yanli burst out laughing, with a hint of doting in his smile.

"Uncle Yu and Aunt Yu asked me to keep an eye on you. If you get hurt, I can't afford their wrath."

Yu Qingyin stopped talking, "I got it. I won't go out at night anymore, okay?" She added silently in her heart, "Go out secretly, not in front of you."

Ji Yanli seemed to see through her thoughts and rubbed her head in revenge, but let go before Yu Qingyin was about to get angry.

"Okay, it's getting late, go to bed. Don't be unable to get up tomorrow morning or you'll need someone to wake you up."

"I understand." Yu Qingyin nodded. Just as she was about to turn around, she suddenly felt her wrist sink. Her eyes fell on her almost bloody hand, and the white bones were faintly visible.

After becoming a zombie, she had long lost the sense of pain, so naturally she didn't notice that her hand was so badly injured.

She was about to pull her hand back and go back to apply the medicine, but Ji Yanli held her hand tightly.

Yu Qingyin opened her mouth, wanting to explain and get the matter over with.

"that......"

"Why are you hurt so badly? I'll apply medicine for you." Ji Yanli's voice was low and full of concern. His brows were furrowed, and his cold eyes were full of heartache for her.

Before Yu Qingyin could answer, Ji Yanli gently grabbed her hand and walked towards the back door of the house.

Yu Qingyin stared at Ji Yanli's back, opening and closing her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say it and let him lead her forward.

The two men moved gently and did not attract the attention of the two people who were keeping watch in the living room.

The two walked in silence all the way to the seasonal banquet room.

Yu Qingyin stood in the room and looked around. There was no one else in the room. The entire room was simply decorated with only a bed.

Ji Yanli looked at Yu Qingyin's slightly awkward appearance and couldn't help laughing. He took out a sofa from the space and placed it in the empty space.

"sit down."

Yu Qingyin breathed a sigh of relief and sat down.

Ji Yanli sat next to her, put her hands on her knees, and took out a bottle of mineral water from the space.

She said softly: "It will be a little painful, just bear with it."

Yu Qingyin nodded slightly. During the process of applying the medicine, Ji Yanli was incredibly gentle, as if she was a precious work of art.

She was mesmerized for a moment. It had been a long time since she had been treated so carefully.

When she was a child, she was often ridiculed and insulted by her classmates because her parents were divorced. She became so angry that she started fighting.

But she didn't dare tell her mother. Her mother had been busy outside all day to make a living for them, and she didn't want her mother to worry about her, so after every fight, she would treat her wounds outside before going home. Gradually, she got used to it.

"Okay." Ji Yanli's voice interrupted her thoughts.

When Yu Qingyin came to her senses, her hand had been carefully bandaged and tied with a bow.

Yu Qingyin chuckled and silently complained, "It's so ugly."

Ji Yanli put away the medicine bag, smiled and took out a tomato from the space and handed it to her.

"Eat tomatoes and have a sweet dream." His voice was soft, with a hint of temptation.

Yu Qingyin took the tomato in silence, suppressed the uncontrollable throbbing in her heart, and responded softly, "Well, good night."

After saying that, she stood up and left without looking back.

Returning to the room, she ate the tomatoes silently, washed herself up, sighed softly and closed her eyes.

Early the next morning, Yu Qingyin woke up with an itchy feeling and opened her eyes.

Lin Yuqing woke up at some point and stood beside her bed, with a soft green light emanating from her hands.

Under the light, the wound on the back of her hand was healing slowly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Lin Yuqing saw her wake up and greeted her with a smile.

"Morning Qingyin, did you sleep well last night?"

Yu Qingyin nodded slightly and was about to sit up when Lin Yuqing stopped her in a gentle voice.

"Qingyin, just wait a moment, it will be ready soon."

Yu Qingyin lay back obediently, looking at Lin Yuqing's focused gaze, a warm feeling surged in her heart.

"Alright." Lin Yuqing put away her light and praised sincerely: "Your hands are so beautiful, just like the green jade hands described in novels."

Yu Qingyin smiled as she got out of bed and responded, "Your hands are beautiful too. Have you had breakfast?"

Lin Yuqing said with a smile.

"You're done. I brought you breakfast. The boss prepared a tomato for you today and asked me to bring it to you. Once you've washed up, we can set off."

Yu Qingyin paused for a moment while washing her face before putting down the towel. This person was really...

Lin Yuqing opened the breakfast box and said, "Oh, by the way, if the boss hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have known that you were injured. The boss cares about you very much." After saying that, she blinked at Yu Qingyin.

Yu Qingyin chuckled, "Don't make a fuss, Ji Yanli cares about everyone."

These words seemed to be spoken to Lin Yuqing, but also seemed to be spoken to himself.

Lin Yuqing tactfully changed the subject.

The two of them went downstairs together. Just as everything was almost ready, Chu Muyao ran over with a smile and was about to hold Yu Qingyin's hand, but Yu Qingyin easily avoided her.

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Chu Muyao's face, and she followed Yu Qingyin shamelessly.

"Qingyin, you finally got up. I was going to go up to call you. It would be a sin if you delay our departure." Her tone was innocent, but the provocation in her words was too obvious.

As expected, as soon as she said this, Shangguan Qing and the others looked at Yu Qingyin with a strange look in their eyes. However, due to Yu Qingyin's identity, they didn't say anything in the end.

The impression of Yu Qingyin in the minds of several people became even worse. They were already annoyed when they knew that there was a useless girl like her in the team, and now she was just causing more trouble.
