Duan Yunfei said, "I have injuries, and it is inconvenient for me to drink wine. If Shen Bro doesn’t mind, I would like to substitute tea for wine and offer you a toast."
"I don’t mind, I don’t mind!" Shen Qingfeng raised his wine cup, gestured towards him, and then drank it all in one gulp.
Duan Yunfei once again bypassed the two young ladies and directly introduced Le Zhao, Yan Yijie, and Xuan Ying to Shen Qingfeng.
Upon seeing Xuan Ying, Shen Qingfeng couldn’t help but be surprised, "Oh~ isn’t this young brother..."
Shen Qinglan whispered, "This is Xuan Ying, the one who led us in earlier was Xuan Ming. They are twins; however, once you get familiar, you can distinguish them."
Previously, when they were disguised, you could tell by skin color; now, it relies only on distinguishing their personalities.
Shen Qingfeng raised his cup and toasted with Xuan Ying and the others.
During the event, Duan Yunfei occasionally glanced over at Shen Qinglan, his eyes full of tender feelings, making Ding Xuan grit her teeth, yet no one seemed to notice her.
After rounds of drinks, everyone got up to leave again.
Luo Tianjie said he had something to give Shen Qingfeng, so he took him back to his courtyard.
Just at this time, Xuan Ming came in holding something.
Shen Qinglan glanced briefly and saw there were tweezers and a bowl of wine.
Looks like he was going to remove the stitches for Duan Yunfei?
"Miss Shen, since you stitched it up, I’ll have to trouble you to remove it."
Xuan Ming, smiling brightly, placed the tools aside and said, "The tools are here, Miss Shen, please go ahead!"
Turns out it was prepared for her; she thought he was going to do it himself. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡~𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚~𝙣𝙚𝙩
"Miss Shen, please sit, Xuan Ying will bring the hot water shortly."
Sure enough, after a short while, Xuan Ying came in with a basin of hot water.
Xuan Ming said, "Miss Shen, you may begin!"
Resignedly, Shen Qinglan got up, cleaned her hands with hot water, and started.
Removing the stitches was much easier than stitching them; it was done in no time.
After removing the stitches, Shen Qinglan disinfected Duan Yunfei with wine, causing him to clench his teeth and breathe heavily.
Xuan Ming and Xuan Ying watching from the side felt a bit sympathetic.
Shen Qinglan said, "Keep eating light foods, and after some time, you will be fully recovered."
Duan Yunfei tilted his head and looked at her, seeing her serious advising manner, his lips unconsciously curled up.
Shen Qinglan cleared her throat and said softly, "I’ll head back now."
Duan Yunfei reached out to hold her, while Xuan Ming and Xuan Ying wisely left the room, thoughtfully closing the door behind them.
"Hmm?" Shen Qinglan raised an eyebrow.
Duan Yunfei said, "It’s just... in a couple of days, I might have to leave for a while. The items you requested, I’ve already had the blacksmith make them for you, once finished, they’ll be sent to you."
"Oh." Shen Qinglan said, "Thank you."
Duan Yunfei felt a bit helpless, constantly reassuring himself that she’s still young, doesn’t understand feelings, just wait, in a year or two it’ll be better!
Shen Qinglan felt her tone was too cold, quickly said, "You have injuries, it’s not suitable for travel. If it’s not urgent, you could delay a few days before departing."
Duan Yunfei heard this and smiled, like a child tasting sweets, smiled genuinely and innocently.
Shen Qinglan watched momentarily, lost in thought, and when she snapped back, her face flushed.
She coughed lightly and withdrew her hand.
"Well... I’ll head back first, rest well."
After speaking, she left quickly without looking back.
He realized it, the young girl always leaves swiftly when shy.
Duan Yunfei thought about this, and couldn’t help but chuckle lightly.
