Bai Xianyu pushed him away a little and tried her best to ignore the complicated emotions in her heart.

“What are you doing here?”

Xie Xingyun made an “oh” sound and took out the item behind him. “1 just made these. Why don’t you try them?”

She did not need to look to know what was inside.

Although she did not understand why Xie Xingyun was always obsessed with making all kinds of pastries for her… Bai Xianyu took a step back.

With this action, her heart ached again.

This physical reaction made her feel a little resistant and powerless.

Xie Xingyun did not find anything unusual. The girl had rejected him many times, so he just smiled and said, “It’s fine to take a look. Didn’t you say that they were ugly previously?”

As he spoke, he opened the paper wrapping the pineapple crisps. The bright yellow pastries were exquisite and small. They were completely unrecognizable from the previous ones.

In fact, those he had made previously were not ugly.

However, she was a little distracted at that time and casually found an excuse to deal with it.

However, the pastries now looked even more exquisite than before. They looked good to be sold.

Bai Xianyu looked at them for a long while. Xie Xingyun looked at her and said, “How is it?”

“Not bad.”

Bai Xianyu quietly changed the topic. “Aren’t you going to the provincial governor’s residence with Brother today?”

“There’s no hurry. There are still many things to do before that.” Xie Xingyun was calm and composed.

“Are you afraid to be here alone?”

Bai Xianyu’s heart was beating faster than ever before. She almost had the urge to hug him.

“…I’m not afraid. Brother has given them the heads-up. Besides, this is my maternal family.”

“It’s good that you’re not afraid.” Xie Xingyun smiled. “Even if you’re afraid, it’s fine. I’ll come here every day to see you.”

Bai Xianyu replied, “Emm.”

Xie Xingyun looked at the sun. “Then I’m leaving.”

“Ehm.”

After the man finished speaking, his back view quickly disappeared from the courtyard like a gust of wind.

Bai Xianyu looked at Xie Xingyun’s back view in a daze, and her heart ached.

She bent down slightly, almost suspecting that she had a heart ailment.

Green Pearl came out with the blanket and happened to see Bai Xianyu. She ran towards her. “Miss, what’s wrong?”

Bai Xianyu frowned. “Get me a physician.”

Because of the matter of getting a physician, Yu Fengyan and Old Madam heard about it and hurriedly followed the physician to her room.

When Yu Boquan saw this, his heart itched again. However, when he thought of what Bai Xianyu’s guard had said just now, he was a little timid and only sat in the hall to look around.

Xu Maoping saw his anxious look and said, “How many times have I told you not to learn from your mother? Every time something happens, you are unable to hide it for fear that others won’t be able to tell.”

Yu Boquan pursed his lips resentfully. “Father, Bai Xianyu is so beautiful. She’s even prettier than the young lady of the Qin family I saw last time!”

“So what if she’s beautiful? With your blockhead, can you marry her?”

“Why not?! I’m a scholar after all, and my family background is good. Our Yu family and the Bai family are in-laws. If 1 marry Bai Xianyu, we’ll be even closer.”

Xu Maoping snorted. “You don’t believe me when I say that you’re a blockhead?!”

Yu Boquan’s face was gloomy. He narrowed his eyes and suddenly had a flash of inspiration!

“Father! Could it be that you mean that you have a way to make Bai Xianyu marry me?”

“It’s not hopeless,” Xu Maoping said calmly. “Tell me, what method in this world can make a woman who doesn’t like you marry you?”

Yu Boquan instantly understood. “Father, you mean…”

“It’s good that you know. There’s no need to say it out loud.” The man sitting at the upper seat took a sip of tea.

“But is this useful? If she doesn’t admit it, won’t it be useless?”

“She won’t admit it? Hmph, she has no choice but to admit it.”

Xu Maoping snorted coldly. “Wasn’t this how I made things happen with your mother back then?”

Yu Boquan’s eyes lit up. “I understand.”

On the other end, Green Pearl sent Old Madam and Yu Fengyan off and closed the door.

The house was not big, but everything was brand new, winning in cleanliness. “Miss, do you still feel pain in your heart?” She worriedly wrung a towel and wiped Bai Xianyu’s sweat.

“Occasionally.”

“But the physician said just now that you’re very healthy and he didn’t find any abnormalities. Could it be because you haven’t rested well recently? The ship is bumpy, perhaps you would be fine after sleeping for a few days.”

Bai Xianyu looked at the tree at the entrance of the courtyard in a daze..
