As soon as he said that, the hand that was flipping through the book reached over and calmly picked up the medicine and put it in his mouth. Under Yun Qixi's surprised gaze, she happily raised her cup and took a sip.

"My medicine has to be paid for!" Yun Qixi shouted loudly as her palm landed heavily on the desk.

Shan Liancheng calmly swept his gaze over to her, and upon seeing her red eyes, he spat out a sentence.

"Not a gift?"

Yun Qixi wanted to vomit blood, she glared at him fiercely, and said while clenching her teeth, "I never thought that there would be someone as black-hearted as you in such a backward feudal society, with such potential, your future is limitless, why don't you go up to heaven?"

Capital, feudal society. Shan Liancheng naturally did not understand these words, the way he looked at her, was calm to the point that they were innocent. If she hadn't forced himself to disappear so quickly, she thought, she would have had the impulse to go up and beat this national male god into a national treasure.

From what he said, wouldn't she have to sell herself to become a servant in order to repay her debt? If this person had studied economics in the modern world, wouldn't he be a god?

On the way out, Yun Qixi's previous anger slowly turned into sadness. How could she be so unlucky to meet such a high quality king? She was so sad that she didn't know who to tell. Thinking of her, a woman of the 21st century, born in a socialist country of justice and harmony, brought up under the care of the Party, a hot-blooded young lady who was making her contribution to the archaeological cause but was suddenly thrown into a strange and backward feudal society by God. The disparity in her heart couldn't even be measured with a meter.

She had just arrived and was unfamiliar with the place. It wasn't easy for her to earn some money. Was it easy for her? But could she go head to head with this prince? It had to be known that this prince was not only the prince, but also a veteran general who was used to the rain and the blood, killing without blinking.

However, she couldn't just admit defeat like that, right? When did she, Yun Qixi, become such a cowardly person? Ever since she started mixing with society, she had never been in anyone's hands before. This peak quality king had simply touched her bottom line. Who could endure this? This was too much!

As she charged forward furiously, Yun Qixi didn't even notice that she had taken the wrong path.

It was only until an unfamiliar little forest appeared in front of him that Yun Qixi faintly sensed that something was amiss.

She looked around. The environment was very remote. Through the gloom of the grove, she could see what seemed to be an independent palace deep in the woods. It looked quiet and mysterious.

Curiosity quickly replaced the anger in her heart. Even though she knew it wouldn't work, she still walked step by step towards the depths of the forest.

Wherever the wind blew, the trees rustled. Walking in the dark forest, the originally cold weather became even colder. In the silence, there was even a hint of gloominess.

As the palace compound got closer and closer, Yun Qixi gradually saw the three words on the signboard.

"Jewel Pavilion?" she read.

As the name implied, was this a place to store gold, silver, and jewelry? Yun Qixi unconsciously approached the Jewel Pavilion step by step.

"Miss, please wait." Suddenly a voice stopped her.

Yun Qixi turned her head to look and saw a woman in green was walking towards him. The closer she got, the more familiar she felt her. Isn't this Qing Li?

"Miss Yun, you might not know this, but Jewel Pavilion is a forbidden zone for Yue Yue Manor, you cannot go there." Qing Li had already walked over, and her lips were pursed into a smile, yet she did not seem to be smiling at all.

"Forbidden area?" Yun Qixi looked at her Jewel Pavilion again, the curiosity in her heart growing.

Humans were like this. The more mysterious something was, the more curious they were to uncover it.

"I know." Yun Qixi turned and smiled to Qing Li.

Qing Li nodded her head perfunctorily and said, "I believe Miss Yun must have gotten lost to come here, I'll bring you back now."

"Alright."

Yun Qixi followed Qing Li and walked back into the small tree. She couldn't help but look back once again.

Jewel Pavilion, they were so mysterious, what kind of place was this?

When Yun Qixi turned back again, she was already far away. She quickly walked forward and followed him.

"Miss Qing Li, what exactly is this place called Jewel Pavilion? "So mysterious!"

Qing Li stopped, her beautiful eyes turned, looked at her, and said expressionlessly: "Miss Yun, it's better not to ask about what you shouldn't have."

After he finished speaking, he seemed to have realized that he was being too serious, and gave a smile that sounded like nothing he could say, his voice also becoming gentler, "Miss Yun, Qing Li still has to remind you that you're not too familiar with this place, there are some places that you cannot go to."

Yun Qixi grinned, and laughed in her heart.

Was she trying to tell him not to go? He was obviously trying to seduce her.

"Alright, I understand." Yun Qixi smiled without batting an eyelid.

Qing Li nodded, as if she was not really concerned about whether she knew or not. She shifted her gaze away and left.

Yun Qixi kept feeling that she had been looking at him with a gaze that was always so gentle, neither painful nor itchy, as if she had a little dislike to him. But when you wanted to carefully distinguish her, you saw a smile on her face, perfectly covering up other emotions.

Looking at Qing Li's straight back, Yun Qixi chuckled, and then prepared to go to Shan Jingyan's room to see if he was awake. Suddenly, his nose itched and he sneezed.

It seemed like she really had a cold. She was unwilling to take the cold medicine that came with her. She felt that it was too extravagant. After all, those medicine were too expensive for her. She could have done it in any other cheap way.

After asking a passing little girl, Yun Qixi found the kitchen. After that, she found a few pieces of ginger in the kitchen and sliced them into pieces, preparing to boil some ginger soup.

A cold, drink some ginger soup, dispel the cold. When she was young, her mother used to deal with her cold in this way. It was a cheap and effective recipe.

Yun Qixi threw the ginger in the boiling pot and covered it with the lid. Then she stared at the pot and stood up, lost in thought.

It was terrible to think that she had come all the way here and not only failed to get the silver back, she had even owed him a sum. But, was Jewel Pavilion a hint from the heavens?

It's not always said that when God closes a door, he will always give you a window. Could it be that this Jewel Pavilion was a window that God had opened for her?

If there really was a lot of jewelry, she could just casually take a few and happily say goodbye to her lord, who was even more stingy than a capitalist.

Thinking of this, she was happy.

"What's so good about it?" Suddenly, a gentle and half-smiling voice rang out from the door …

Yun Qixi turned her head and saw Shan Jingyan at the door. Although his face was still pale, he looked much more energetic than before.

"Why did you get out of bed? You should have a good rest. " Yun Qixi reprimanded.

Shan Jingyan walked in with a smile, "I felt that I must have been lying down for a very long time, and instead, my entire body was aching, so I came out to take a walk. I heard you were in the kitchen, so I came. " As he spoke, he had already walked up to them. Looking at the steaming hot pot, he smiled and asked, "What are you cooking? Is there any part of me? "

Yun Qixi smiled mysteriously, "I'm boiling some soup, if you want to drink it, I'll give you one."

After she finished speaking, she took a handkerchief and held the lid of the pot in her hands. She opened the lid and a surge of hot air sprayed out. The entire room was filled with the fragrance of ginger.

Shan Jingyan frowned, and coughed twice: "It's Jiang."

Yun Qixi snapped her fingers, and looked at him with praise, "You guessed right."

"But what else? I can't smell it. " Shan Jingyan stared at the pot and asked.

Yun Qixi took out two bowls, spooned the soup into the bowl, and laughed, "Of course you can't smell anything. Other than ginger, which is a bit purple, purple Su has no smell, so there's nothing else."

Seeing Shan Jingyan's handsome face suddenly stiffen, Yun Qixi laughed in her heart.

"Are you especially disappointed?"

Shan Jingyan forced a smile, "Not bad."

Yun Qixi explained, "Actually it's like this, this soup has its own medicinal effects, it is used to cure chills, and even if there is no chills, drinking it can prevent it, what do you think? If you're not very disappointed, a bowl? "

Shan Jingyan looked at the steam rising from the soup, he hesitated for a moment, but suddenly made a huge decision, and nodded his head, "Because you cooked it, I must drink it."

After saying that, he reached out to grab the bowl, and Yun Qixi swung his hand to hit it. It looked very fierce, but when it landed, it only lightly touched the back of Shan Jingyan's hand, and said while smiling, "Don't be too anxious, it just came out of the pot, it's very hot."

Shan Jingyan retracted his hand, and said with an embarrassed smile, "That's right, then I will go and look at Third Brother, and also bring him a bowl of your soup."

Hearing that, Yun Qixi immediately took a step forward, her arms protecting the bowl and pot, "He's fine, there's no need for this."

Seeing her strange reaction, Shan Jingyan laughed, "Didn't you say that even if you aren't sick, you can still be prevented? I saw that the weather had turned cold in the past two days. Third Brother should need this. "

Yun Qixi snorted, "My soup is not for casually giving away, if he wants to drink it, he has to pay me silver."

Shan Jingyan stared at her angry look and asked: "What's wrong? Angry with the Third Brother? "

"She's so angry!" Yun Qixi closed the lid on the wok heavily.

Shan Jingyan's smile became even wider, "What's going on? Tell me about it? "

Yun Qixi pursed her lips, and waved her hand in the end, "Forget it, it's nothing. "Don't try to please him with my soup. Later on, he narcissistically thought I was trying to please him."

"My Third Brother is actually a cold-faced and warm-hearted person. He …"

"Can I not mention him?" Yun Qixi glared at her unhappily.

Shan Jingyan laughed helplessly and nodded, "Alright."

After talking for a while, the soup became colder. Yun Qixi picked up a bowl and blew on it, bringing it in front of Shan Jingyan.

"It shouldn't be too hot anymore, you can drink."

Shan Jingyan took the bowl, slightly frowned, and in the end, raised his head and drank it all down. Putting down the bowl, he seemed to be spicy from the soup, his nose already sweating. As he exhaled, he awkwardly smiled and said, "It really has a good effect on dispelling the cold."

"Of course."

Just as Yun Qixi was feeling pleased with herself, she suddenly saw Qing Li walking in with big strides. She wrinkled her nose and took a whiff, staring at the bowl that Shan Jingyan had put down, and asked: "What did you give Fourth Prince to drink?"

"Ginger Soup." Yun Qixi replied.

"What?" Qing Li opened her eyes wide.
