Quick Wear: Cousin, Come to the Bowl Quickly

Sure enough, Chang Sun Yan, who was behind the screen, heard her suppressed breathing, and the shame and anger in his heart were immediately replaced by guilt. He began to reflect on whether he was too harsh on Lin Xi.

Her subordinates had clearly told her that she was seriously injured and should not be moved, but she still insisted on letting her get out of bed and put on clothes. If the wound was affected, wouldn't that be...

Just when Chang Sun Yan was deeply immersed in self-criticism, Lin Xi's somewhat weak voice finally came from the inner room, "I'm dressed, you, you come in."

Chang Sun Yan finally came back to his senses from his self-blame and replied softly, "Okay." Then he moved stiffly into the inner room.

"Sorry, I was rude just now." Seeing Chang Sun Yan coming in, Lin Xi apologized to him sincerely.

Changsun Yan raised his head and looked at Lin Xi, who was half lying on the bed with her black hair disheveled. He met her apologetic eyes. The scene he had just seen emerged in his mind again. His ears suddenly felt hot and he quickly avoided Lin Xi's gaze.

"It's okay. I, I didn't see anything." Changsun Yan lowered his eyes, shook his head gently, and spoke in a way that made things more obvious.

"Yeah." As if seeing his embarrassment, Lin Xi didn't say anything more. She responded softly, and the room suddenly became quiet.

"It's late at night, and you are injured, so you should rest early." After a long time, as if he couldn't stand the silent atmosphere anymore, Changsun Yan thought for a moment and spoke.

"What about you?" Lin Xi neither agreed nor refused, but asked back.

"Me?" Chang Sun Yan raised his eyes and met Lin Xi's calm gaze, with a faint arc at the corner of his mouth, "I can just lean on the table. If you have any instructions, I can come at any time..."

"Runshi." Changsun Yan was interrupted by Lin Xi when he was halfway through his words.

"Hmm?" He looked at Lin Xi with some confusion.

"There's no need to be so polite between you and me." Lin Xi looked at him steadily, with a look of tenderness in her eyes, "Call me Lianqing."

"My lord, this is against etiquette..." As if burned by Lin Xi's gaze, Changsun Yan hurriedly avoided her sight and subconsciously wanted to refuse, but he suddenly remembered halfway through his words that if he looked into it carefully, everything he had experienced tonight had already exceeded the etiquette. Saying such words at this time would inevitably seem a bit hypocritical.

Thinking of this, he could only swallow the words that were on the tip of his tongue, not knowing how to respond for a moment.

Lin Xi stared at the hesitant look on his face for a moment, then suddenly sighed, her tone full of hurt, "Runshi, do you really not remember me?"

"What...what?" Hearing the loneliness in her tone, Changsun Yan's heart suddenly tightened for some reason, and there was a hint of confusion in his eyes when he looked at Lin Xi.

"Nine years ago, outside the Changsun Mansion, you also gave me a set of robes." Lin Xi's long eyelashes trembled slightly, as if to hide the fragility in her pupils.

"My mother died unjustly at that time. I traveled thousands of miles to the capital to prove her innocence. I thought that there would be people willing to uphold justice for me in the imperial city where there are so many officials."

"But who knows that I am a mustard dust, a commoner with no power or wealth, and can't even enter the government office, how can I redress my mother's grievances? When I was completely desperate, I stood in front of Changsun's door."

……

"At that time, I was covered in dust and my clothes were tattered, but you not only did not ask the doorman to drive me away, but you also gave me clothes and other valuables, and even offered to deliver a letter to Lord Changsun on my behalf to overturn my mother's case..."

As Lin Xi tried her best to suppress her emotions but still couldn't help trembling in her narration, Chang Sun Yan gradually dug out that vague memory from deep in his memory.

However, the favor that was as heavy as a thousand pounds to Yu Linxi was just a trivial thing for him, so trivial that even if he tried his best to recall it, he still could not remember the specific scene at that time.

I only vaguely remember that he seemed to look out through the car curtain at that time, and the only thing that left an impression on him was that pair of beautiful and unyielding phoenix eyes.

It turned out to be her.
