Chapter 242 The Meaning of Promising

As Shi Yan watched Xiao Huanling turn around to get her some snacks, her eyes welled up with tears as she looked at Xiao Huanling's back. Realizing that she couldn't hold back her tears, she quickly held them back.

"Really, I'm getting more and more spoiled."

"Xiao Huanling, it's all because you've been too gentle with me..."

Aman saw Shi Yan's expression and looked at her with concern.

"Master, you..."

Shi Yan smiled faintly as she looked at A Man's hesitant expression.

"I am fine."

Just then, Xiao Huanling, who had gone to get her some snacks, came over, followed by the young medical apprentice Qin Yun, who had a very innocent face.

Shi Yan nodded and smiled at the young doctor Qin Yun.

The young medical apprentice, Qin Yun, nodded to Shi Yan in greeting and smiled shyly.

"I just heard from Young Master Xiao that my sister has already taken her medicine. Qin Yun came to see how my sister is recovering and to inquire about her condition."

Xiao Huanling sat down by the couch, placed the oil paper package in his hand on the table beside him, and then waited quietly for Shi Yan and Qin Yun to finish speaking.

Of course, he mostly stared at Shi Yan, paying attention to her every move.

Shi Yan had a good impression of Qin Yun and readily accepted Qin Yun's call of "sister" without objection.

"sorry to bother you."

Qin Yun pursed her lips.

"No trouble."

"I think you seem more energetic than yesterday. Is there anything wrong with you, sister? Perhaps you feel tightness in your chest or a feeling of pressure in your heart..."

Shi Yan shook her head and rejected them one by one.

Qin Yun's skills were still not up to par, and he could only see some superficial aspects. He couldn't find anything wrong with what Shi Yan said, so he felt relieved.

"Sister, then I won't bother you any longer. I have things to do up ahead."

Shi Yan responded with an "Mm".

After saying goodbye to Xiao Huanling, Qin Yun left.

"Aman, go and rest. Aling is here, so you don't need to stay here all the time."

Upon hearing this, Aman glanced at Xiao Huanling.

Xiao Huanling said calmly.

"Go ahead."

Considering Shi Yan's physical condition and knowing that the two of them didn't have much time left and needed more alone time, he decided not to stay any longer so as not to disturb them.

"Master, I'll go down now."

Shi Yan nodded.

Seeing that Aman was about to turn and leave, Xiao Huanling paused and suddenly called out to stop her.

"In two days it will be the wedding day of Ayan and me. There are quite a few things to prepare. I just went to see Senior Chen. Senior Chen said he would personally handle the wedding ceremony for Ayan and me. You should visit Senior Chen more often in the next two days to see if there is anything you can help with. I will take care of Ayan."

Shi Yan was somewhat surprised.

Aman had no objection to Xiao Huanling's arrangements. The moment she learned that Shi Yan was going to marry Xiao Huanling, Xiao Huanling was already half a master in her heart. Moreover, Xiao Huanling was wholeheartedly devoted to her master and had great prestige, so she was willing to listen to him.

"Okay, Ah Man, I've got it."

Shi Yan smiled at A Man for her quick agreement, then gave Xiao Huanling a reproachful look.

"You give orders to my Ah Man so easily and casually. Luckily, my Ah Man has a good temper and doesn't hold it against you."

Xiao Huanling lowered his eyes indifferently, picked up the oil paper package, and opened it.

“Ah Man is completely devoted to you, so she naturally cares a lot about your affairs. With her helping me, I don’t worry about making mistakes. I can stay with you without worry…”

Aman was taken aback upon hearing this.

“Master, what Young Master Xiao said makes sense.”

"Furthermore, after Master and Young Master Xiao get married, Young Master Xiao will also be Aman's master. He has the right to order Aman around."

Shi Yan was speechless for a moment.

"Silly girl, what do you mean by master or mistress? It was fine when we were in the palace, but now we are free. Aman, you don't need to call me master anymore. Just call me sister like Xiaodie does."

Aman looked at Shi Yan with a touched heart, and under the other's encouraging and gentle gaze, she hesitantly called out, "Sister."

Shi Yan smiled slightly.

"Okay, Ah Man."

"Then I'll have to trouble you to take care of the wedding arrangements between Ah Ling and me. You're the younger sister, so I won't stand on ceremony with you."

Ah Man laughed and nodded.

"Ah."

Shi Yan was finally satisfied.

"From now on, you can be more casual in front of me and A-Ling. You don't need to refer to yourself as a servant or be too formal. Remember that."

Aman nodded again.

"I'm going to see Doctor Chen to see if there's anything I can help him with."

Aman was eager to contribute to Shiyan's wedding.

Shi Yan seemed to sense A Man's feelings and was unwilling to ignore her good intentions.

"Alright, then go ahead. Please give my regards to the senior."

Ah Man's eyes shone brightly as she replied "Okay" and left.

"Ayan, you're quite protective of your own. I only asked Aman to help the senior, and you're already protecting her."

Xiao Huanling unfolded the pastries from the oil paper package and handed them to Shi Yan.

Shi Yan glanced at the pastries, which looked delicious, and then looked at Xiao Huanling's serious and expressionless face.

"What, are you jealous of Ah Man?"

Shi Yan couldn't help but smile as she spoke.

Xiao Huanling's ears burned when her secret was exposed, but she remained calm on the surface.

Seeing Xiao Huanling forcing himself to maintain a composed demeanor, Shi Yan couldn't help but smile and even pretended to fan herself.

"It's so sour...so sour...it smells so sour."

Xiao Huanling was truly unable to remain calm, and her face flushed red.

"Ayan, why are you teasing me again?"

Xiao Huanling felt a deep sense of powerlessness, yet also a bittersweet feeling.

"Fine, I'm willing to let you bully me. But you can only ever bully me for the rest of your life."

Shi Yan hadn't expected Xiao Huanling to be so irresistible with his sweet talk, which made her feel embarrassed.

"I didn't bully you. How could I bear to bully you? I like you, and I don't even have time to be good to you."

Xiao Huanling was stunned for a moment, and reached out to grasp Shi Yan's soft hand placed beside her.

"Okay, I understand. Ayan didn't bully me, I misspoke."

Shi Yan felt as if her normally icy body was on fire, and to avoid losing her composure, she quickly changed the subject.

"I want to eat that hibiscus pastry."

Xiao Huanling was slightly taken aback, then smiled indulgently.

"it is good."

So he picked up a delicately made hibiscus pastry, peach-colored like a hibiscus flower, and offered it to Shi Yan's lips.

Seeing the pastry offered to her mouth, Shi Yan was too embarrassed to open her mouth and take it, instead taking a small bite.

The melt-in-your-mouth sweetness made Shi Yan smile.

Xiao Huanling looked at her with a smile.

"how is the taste?"

Shi Yan raised her eyes and smiled slightly.

"It's good, you should try it too."

Xiao Huanling shook his head.

"I bought this for you, eat it. Does your mouth still taste bitter?"

After Shi Yan finished eating the pastry, he asked her.

Shi Yan felt a warmth in her heart.

"Not bitter."

To avoid arousing Xiao Huanling's suspicion, Shi Yan ate two more pastries before declining, saying she would eat later and wanted to talk to him now.

Without thinking, Xiao Huanling rewrapped the oil paper package and placed it aside, then took out a handkerchief to wipe Shi Yan's hands.

“Ayan, I asked Senior Chen to be our witness and the officiant at the wedding. He has agreed.”

"I wanted our marriage ceremony to be as perfect as possible, so I'm sorry I didn't discuss it with you beforehand."

Shi Yan felt a pang of pain in her heart, but she smiled and said it outwardly.

"Ah Ling, thank you. You've thought of everything very carefully. I think it's a good idea to have our seniors as our witnesses, to be our elders at our wedding."
