Chapter 150 If you don't want to harm me, then listen to me.
The two had just finished tidying up and went downstairs when they ran into Xin Moyan and Cailian. She had gotten up early to visit Yun Zhaoyao.
"Zhao Yao, why are your hands even redder now?"
"Sister Yan, I'm fine. I'll just need to apply more medicine today." Yun Zhaoyao said optimistically, while still holding onto Hua Buyu's sleeve with her other hand.
She ignored him and instead told Xin Moyan to sit down quickly. "Yan Yan, you haven't had breakfast at Yunxianglou yet! I had the kitchen prepare a lot, so you can try it later."
Xin Moyan nodded and said, "Buyu, or I should send someone to fetch a royal physician. Zhaoyao's injury doesn't look any better."
"Need not!"
"Need not!"
The two of them rejected her suggestion in unison; if the Yuanqi royal family were involved, the problem would become much more serious.
Before long, the food and snacks were served. After all, he had caused the wound to relapse himself, so Hua Buyu took care of everything in detail, crushing everything and putting it in his bowl. Later, finding it troublesome, she simply fed him directly.
"Sister Flower, my hands are dirty, can you wipe them for me?"
"How arrogant! I've never served anyone so attentively in my entire life. You'd better be filial to me when you grow up!"
"Really? Sister Hua has never served anyone before?" He blinked, his eyelashes fluttering with the movement, his clear eyes looking somewhat innocent.
Clang!
Hua Buyu's breath hitched for a moment, and she subconsciously let go of the chopsticks in her hand. She hurriedly bent down to pick them up, feeling somewhat awkward.
"Do you know what you're talking about?"
"I'm sorry, Sister Hua, I thought you meant feeding other people."
Yun Zhaoyao lowered her head, her fair face turning increasingly red, looking extremely guilty and remorseful.
She waved her hand at him impatiently, signaling him to stop talking.
"Silent, what's wrong?"
“It’s okay, Yan Yan. It’s so hot today. Why don’t you not go to the shop to help out? We can make four people, including Cai Lian and Zhao Yao, and play mahjong together.”
Xin Moyan exclaimed incredulously, "Ah! Buyu, you mean mahjong?"
"Yes! Yunxianglou has mahjong. I'll teach you later. Don't go out, let's play mahjong!"
"Silent, how come there are mahjong tiles here?"
Hua Buyu put his arm around her shoulder and said excitedly, "We can talk about mahjong later. I haven't been able to find any mahjong partners. Let's hurry!"
And so, Hua Buyu forcibly dragged the three of them to stay at Yunxiang Tower to play mahjong. It was a set of mahjong tiles made of fragrant wood. Although Xin Moyan was puzzled, she put it out of her mind as Hua Buyu excitedly taught her...
In less than half a day, the three people who had never played mahjong before were getting into the swing of things, and the atmosphere in the room became more and more lively. Hua Buyu also remembered to help Yun Zhaoyao apply the medicine.
It wasn't until evening that Xin Moyan suddenly remembered that she had promised to treat someone to lemon tea last night. So she quickly ended the game, took Cailian to a milk tea shop to get it to go, and put a lot of ice cubes in the basket to keep the milk tea warm.
Hua Buyu stayed behind and, just like yesterday, gave Yun Zhaoyao a simple bath and applied a thick layer of ointment to his arm.
"Little Zhaoyao, I'm going back to the General's Mansion tonight. Remember not to touch your wound."
Yun Zhaoyao bit her lip and quickly blinked her innocent and pitiful big eyes, "Sister Hua, can I not go?"
"No way!" Hua Buyu refused without even thinking.
"Also, I can only keep you company for a couple more days. Once you're healed, hurry back to the inn. I've heard that the envoys from various countries will officially arrive in the capital in three days. At that time, your identity will definitely be exposed, and Yuan Qi will prepare the best accommodation for you."
"Sister Hua, what about you?"
"What? I'll still be with Yan Yan. At that time, your every move will definitely attract a lot of attention, Yun Zhaoyao. If you don't want to harm me, don't contact me again in a couple of days. After the National Congress ends, hurry back to the country."
"Sister Hua, I don't want to be separated from you. Don't worry, I won't hurt you. I'll also have people protect you. Don't leave my side, okay?"
"Heh!" Hua Buyu sneered, crossed her arms and sat on the bed, her tone becoming increasingly unfriendly.
"Yun Zhaoyao, don't forget, I have nothing to do with you. If it weren't for the fact that you helped me back then, I wouldn't have bothered with you. Yun Kuang is ruthless and does all sorts of evil. He won't let you come to Yuanqi to play so easily. You'd better be careful and don't let him use the same trick again. I saved you once, but I won't save you a second time."
He remained silent for a long time before slowly squatting down in front of Hua Buyu, his gaze intense. "Sister Hua, you don't want to see me killed by the Imperial Uncle because you remember that I helped you back then, right? It wasn't a coincidence that we met two years ago; you guessed his scheme and deliberately stepped in to save me, right?"
“I told you it was just a coincidence that I ran into you. Also, that bitch must have secretly sent someone to follow you. She didn’t know I was still alive and didn’t want to harm me, so she listened to me and went back immediately after the court assembly.”
"Sister Hua..."
"Once you've healed, let's not see each other again. Okay, that's all I have to say. I'm going back now. Remember not to touch your wound tonight."
She didn't give Yun Zhaoyao a chance to say another word, and immediately turned and left Yunxiang Tower...
In the back garden, when Xin Moyan walked there with her basket, she indeed saw a tall figure, radiant and aloof under the moonlight.
"Xuanyuan!" she called out, quickening her pace without even realizing that her voice was tinged with excitement.
"Yan'er, you're right on time!"
Unable to detect the joking in his words, Xin Moyan quickly waved to him, gesturing for him to sit down and talk. She then brought out two cups of fruit tea and inserted straws into them.
"Look, this one is called 'Blazing Flowers,' made with black tea and lemon, and a little floral syrup. This one is 'Ice and Fire,' made with ripe tea base and mint, plus some other toppings. You should try it."
He nodded solemnly, "Well, one cup is enough for me. Yan'er, you can choose first!"
"Both drinks are delicious. Is it really appropriate for me to choose first?"
"It's alright, Yan'er, you choose!"
Xuan Yuan spoke casually, but the smile in his eyes betrayed him.
She chose the "Ice and Fire" drink, took a sip, and decided to leave it for him since she had promised to treat him to lemon tea last night.
"Drink it quickly!"
"Hmm." He reached out, bypassed the lemon tea, snatched the bamboo tube from Xin Moyan's hand, put the straw in his mouth, and drank without changing his expression.
"What...what are you doing?"
“What Yan’er has drunk is naturally the best.”
"Ah!" she screamed, covering her increasingly hot cheeks with her hands, completely at a loss.
"Haha~"
"What are you...doing?"
Hua Buyu suddenly popped her head out from the corner, startling both of them.
