“The swelling seems to have gone down a little.” Bai Qihan’s slender fingers brushed across her cheek, bringing with them a cold touch. “I’ll get someone to bring some ointment over later.”

“Alright.” Luo Yun nodded. Her tensed nerves relaxed a little, and her eyes got a little misty.

Bai Qihan raised his hand and wiped away the tears in her eyes. “Don’t cry. I’ll definitely make them pay for the slap they threw at your face in the future,” he coaxed softly. Even Bai Qihan himself did not realize that his emotions were more unstable today compared to the time when they were at the Luo family.

Luo Yun’s voice was soft as she said, “I don’t want to see her again. If she dares to mess around, I won’t give her any face.” She paused for a moment before continuing. “Aunt was slapped by her husband today. She lost all her face. Will she harm you in the future?”

“That depends on whether she has the ability to do so.” Bai Qihan laughed coldly.

Luo Yun thought to herself, “Since the boss himself is fearless, then what do I have to worry about.”

“Then let’s go and see grandfather.”

“Alright.”

“Fortunately, I took a first-aid class when I was in school, ” said Luo Yun. “If not for that, I’m afraid that things could have turned out a lot worse.”

Bai Qihan said sincerely, “We are all very grateful to you.”

“It’s simply what I should do. Saving the dead and healing the wounded is every doctor’s re…” Upon hearing Bai Qihan’s words, Luo Yun subconsciously began speaking, but as she was halfway through her words, she quickly changed what she was saying. “Actually, I was also very nervous at that time. Fortunately, grandfather turned out fine in the end.”

Fortunately, Bai Qihan did not hold on to this matter, leaving Luo Yun at ease.

Old Master Bai had already woken up and was well. He had taken his medicine and rested for a while, so Luo Yun did not want to disturb him.

The emergency doctor came to ask her about the matter again. Luo Yun answered fluently, and the other party immediately praised her. It was all thanks to her professional skills and quick reaction that she had managed to save the old man.

Luo Yun thought to herself, “Shut up, stop praising me so profusely. My husband might get suspicious.”

…

During the dinner, Old Master Bai was absent, and so was Bai Caiying’s family. In the end, only the rest of the family, Luo Yun, and Bai Qihan were left.

The atmosphere at the dining table was eerily quiet. No one spoke, not even Bai Miaomiao, who was always talkative. The episode that had just taken place had caused countless complicated thoughts to appear in everyone’s minds. It was clearly affecting them, even if they pretended that nothing had happened on the surface.

Luo Yun’s wrist had been smeared with medicine, but it still hurt. She could not even hold her chopsticks properly. She could forget about the dazzling array of dishes on the table.

Bai Qihan looked at her aggrieved expression and picked up some beef for her. “Here, eat this.” He looked at her hand and then asked, “Can you move your hand?” His words broke the silence at the dining table.

Suddenly, Luo Yun felt many gazes on her face.

Bai Miaomiao thought to herself, “Fourth sister-in-law isn’t going to let fourth brother feed her, is she?”

Meanwhile, Bai Qijun thought to himself, “I’ve already apologized. They aren’t going to look for me again, right?”

Luo Yun waved her left hand. “It’s fine. This hand is alright.” With so many people watching, she was too embarrassed to let Bai Qihan feed her. If no one was around, they could act coquettishly to promote their relationship. However, that was currently not the case.

After dinner, a servant came to tell them that their room was ready. They were also informed that their clothes had been prepared.

Bai Qihan nodded and explained to Luo Yun, “We have to stay for the night in case something happens to grandfather again.”

“Alright.” Luo Yun understood. “Then I’ll go and prepare your bath.”

“Wait for a while; there’s still something to attend to,” said Bai Qihan.

Luo Yun thought that he still had to deal with company matters, so she did not ask much. But in the end, she heard him say, “Didn’t you want to see the koi?”

Luo Yun: “???” She had almost forgotten about it herself, but he actually remembered.

“Get the kitchen to get you some fish food and spray some mosquito repellent on yourself,” Bai Qihan instructed.

When they went to see the koi fish, Bai Miaomiao immediately turned to her second brother and said, “Fourth brother is even scarier than you when he’s angry. I heard that he forced aunt to apologize, but aunt did not comply. Then, uncle slapped her just to avenge Fourth Sister-in-law…”

Bai Qijun was shocked to hear that. “I haven’t been home for more than a year, so I didn’t recognize Luo Yun at all. Aunt asked me to drag her away, so I did it without even thinking twice. Fortunately, I didn’t exert all my strength back then.” Everyone said that he had a bad temper, but in actuality, much of that temper came from the confidence from the backing he had. He felt that when it actually came down to it, he was quite mellow.

Bai Miaomiao rubbed her chin. “Fourth sister-in-law is a lot different from how she was in the past. She probably has someone backing her up. She’s even more confident now. ”

Bai Qihan had never seen the Luo Yun in the past as he had been overseas. Today was the first time he met her. He was shocked by her gaze. Her gaze had been as sharp as a knife when she had looked at him. He found himself pondering on how his fourth brother actually took a liking to such a character.
