The moonlight of early summer was quiet and cool, so faint, so soft, like flowing water, quietly rushing through the window into the room, embellishing the floor with a variegated appearance.Lan You Nian stood in front of the window with her bare feet, like many nights in the past, gazed at the bright moon in the sky
“Young miss,” Lan Feng sighed as she picked up the cloak left on the side, carefully tucked Lan you Nian under the cloak. Inside, her heart hurt for this master who was much smaller than her.
“How are you back?” Lan You Nian asked. After all, Lan Feng actually needed a little more than half a month to return. It was incredibly rare for her to come back so early. Lan Feng was not as clingy as Lan Wu; Lan Feng was more self-reliant. Despite being a woman, she, like Lan Ren, could easily handle many matters.
“Young miss is still so muddled,” Lan Feng frowned, puzzled. It can be said that her family’s young miss was so smart that it wasn’t human but still can be as muddled as a child, “Young miss has forgotten. That day of this month is coming soon!”
Lan You Nian suddenly understood. Every month, it wasn’t her monthlies that will arrive. After all, with her current age, that thing hasn’t arrived yet. Lan Feng was talking about the day the poison activates every month. Every month, the day the poison activates would always be between the 15-19. Every time the poison activates, she will not have any capability of self-defense. In the past, when the poison activated, either it was in the Medical Valley, or it was in Wu Qing Pavilion; both were safe. But now in the capital, it seems Lan Feng wasn’t at ease.
“En, don’t worry!” Lan You Nian advised. In fact, every time the poison activated, although she was in pain, those who stayed with her was equally miserable. Every time after the poison activated, she will notice these silly girls had red-rimmed eyes as they stood at the door entrance. Because their hearts ached for her, so a lot of times, when it was nearly time for the poison to activate, she will always return to the Medical Valley but now, in such circumstances, she definitely cannot return to the Medical Valley.
“Lan Feng, these two pills, place one in Lan Zhi’s tea water and watch her drink it. As for the other, give it to the young master of Prime Minister’s manor, An Ping,” Lan You Nian took out two pills, the smirk hanging on the corner of her lips was like that of a rich playboy’s.
Lan Feng already has an understanding of the wicked ploys of her master, so at this moment was very sympathetic of Lan Zhi and An Ping. After all, these drugs that young miss used were developed by third young master. The poison developed by third young master were truly shocking the entire world and moving ghosts and gods.
Seeing Lan Feng leave, just as Lan You Nian was prepared to rest, she was suddenly picked up from behind. Her entire body was surrounded by a fresh mint flavor that made people want to sink into it.
“Feng Yi Xuan!” Lan You Nian hissed. One day, she will be scared out of her wits by this man. Seeing as now even in her own room, she couldn’t take off her veil, you can tell how much she dreaded him. And this man, sure enough, unabashedly broke into her boudoir in the middle of the night.
“Call Xuan!” Feng Yi Xuan said earnestly then sat Lan You Nian on the bed. That aloof man whose smiles and words were usually so stingy, crouched down and with gentle movements picked up the socks and shoes beside the bed. Then, with tender eyes, he picked up the shoes and gently placed them on the small white tender feet of Lan You Nian, moving back and forth twice. With of face of inquiry, he asked, “Is it cold?”
She wouldn’t know how angry he was when he entered the room and saw the girl, he thought of constantly standing in front of the window with her small bare white feet. After all, a woman’s feet can’t be casually exposed but what made him angry the most was that this girl didn’t know how to take care of herself. The early summer’s night was still a little cool, but this girl seemed unaware. When his palm touched the girl’s little feet, only then did Feng Yi Xuan notice how small the girl’s feet were, just like her hands, delicately small and white, but he cared most about the ice-cold temperature of the foot in his hands. In this weather, it was not normal at all. Recalling that Nian Nian’s body temperature seemed to always be so low, he thought it was a problem with Lan You Nian’s body itself, but how could he know that it was because Lan You Nian’s poison was going to trigger very soon.
Lan You Nian dazedly gaped at Feng Yi Xuan putting on the shoes for her. In her memory, no one took care of her like this. In her past life, she was too independent. No matter what matter it was, she always did it by herself, with self-strength and self-reliance, really a veritable tough woman. In this life, her heart was already sealed up, and as she is without a mother, so this is, since she could remember, the first time someone put on shoes for her. The one who put shoes on her was a nation’s wangye, a war god on the battlefield, but now, he did these things with gentleness and indulgence.
“Hn, remember to wear socks and shoes in the future,” At first, Feng Yi Xuan had a pit of anger in his belly but when he helped Nian Nian put on the shoes, seeing the girl staring at him as if stupefied, that pair of eyes that were black and white in sharp contrast glimmered with bright lights, like starlight falling down to earth, infinitely beautiful. Just like that, he didn’t have any anger anymore, only sighed in his heart. If his girl doesn’t know how to care for herself, he will take care of her. If she forgot to wear shoes, he will help her put them on. He will always be by her side safe-guarding her.
“I know.” Lan You Nian retracted the foot that Feng Yi Xuan held in the palm of his hands, but this feeling of being concerned about very distinctly lingered in Lan You Nian’s heart.
