C87 One's own people

Bai Xian was speechless. She had also seen some of the sights of the streets of the Luo City in the carriage the day they entered the city together. As for what the Luo City really looked like, she had no way of describing it, "When you go and see for yourself, you will know.

Shen Yunqing pouted his lips and started to eat unhappily.

She was just about to return to Bai’s mother's room when Shen Yunqing held her hand and said, "Sister Bai Xian, today Xiao Lan will take care of Aunt, you will take care of Aunty for the past few days, and today the two of us will sleep in this room."

Along the way, Bai Xian and the others all slept in the same room as the Bai’s mother, so it would be more convenient to take care of the Bai’s mother at night. Facing Lan Shi's good intentions, Bai Xian's heart warmed.

Shen Yunqing waved his hand, "It's not troublesome, it's not troublesome at all. Sister Bai Xian, you are too xenophobic."

After two days of traveling, Bai Xian and his group finally saw the city gate of Luo City. However, Lan Shi, who was driving the carriage, obviously did not plan to bring them into the city, and took a turn for the mountains at a fork in the road, which was still quite a distance away from Luo City. Bai Xian had Bai’s mother leaning on his body, and did not have the time to look at the scenery outside.

When Shen Yunqing, who had been looking out of the window, saw that Lan Shi actually did not head towards Luo City, he immediately scuttled to Lan Shi's side. "Xiao Lan, are we not going to Luo City?"

Lan Shi explained, "Last night, I received a message from their flying pigeons, asking me to bring you all directly to the villa to live. They said it was the general's arrangements."

Shen Yunqing nodded her head. Towards General Shao Yue, she still respected him a lot, but since it was a general's arrangement, she decided to obey.

In a place where there was clearly no path, she suddenly found a road. Not long after, Bai Xian and the others alighted the carriage, which was Shao Yue's villa, the Twelve Protectors of Shadow and his residence.

Seeing that it wasn't a grand yet unique manor, Bai Xian secretly nodded his head. It seemed that Shao Yue truly treated her as his own people, and actually allowed Lan Shi to bring them to his base.

Lan Shi hugged the Bai’s mother who had just woken up with his entire body weak, and said to Bai Xian and Shen Yunqing: "Miss, you guys can directly enter, then Big Brother will be waiting for you. I'll send Aunt back to her room first." With that, she carried Bai’s mother and flew into the air, shocking Shen Yunqing.

Bai Xian calmly walked into the manor. Even though Shen Yunqing, who was following behind, was quite reserved, her eyes kept looking around. If not for the fact that she did not want to embarrass Bai Xian, she would have ran away happily.

As expected, Lv Ying was waiting for him. When Bai Xian saw him, he asked, "Guard Lu, has General already returned to the Luo City?"

Lv Ying nodded his head, "Miss Bai, the general heard that you guys are coming back tonight and will be visiting you tonight."

Bai Xian was courteous again and again. He himself was just a small advisor, how could the General Worker pay him a visit himself? "General is courteous, it should be us paying a visit to the General."

After a round of pleasantries, Lv Ying personally brought Bai Xian and Shen Yunqing to the courtyard that was arranged for them. Even though this villa wasn't considered large, every single courtyard possessed a certain degree of independence, and this was also because every single Twelve Protectors of Shadow was a person who wished to preserve their own privacy.

This time, the general had specially arranged for Bai’s mother and the rest to stay in Cao Xin's courtyard. Although Cao Xin would not stay in the manor for a few days every year, Young Noble Chun was always picky about his living accommodations, and all the furniture in the house were excellent.

Lv Ying and the others had gone through a long and tiring journey, so they needed to rest. Once she and Shen Yunqing entered the house, they saw Lan Shi feeding the medicine to Bai’s mother, and Bai’s mother's complexion was already better than it was a few days ago.

Bai Xian hurried over to Bai’s mother and took out a handkerchief to wipe the medicinal juice off Bai’s mother's mouth. "Miss Lan, I'll have to trouble you.

Lan Shi placed the empty bowl on the table and kept the small bag he had left behind for the treatment, "Don't worry, Aunty's worry about him is too much, causing wind cold to enter her body. I didn't bring my silver needle with me earlier, and just used it to give Aunty a acupuncture session.

Bai Xian helped the Bai’s mother lie down and covered her with a blanket. Only then did he turn around and thank Lan Shi: "Miss Lan, I really don't know how to express my gratitude."

Shen Yunqing laughed: "Sister Bai Xian is always this polite."

Although Lan Shi was an orphan since she was young, and had always been raised as a personal guard, by all reasoning, her personality should be as calm and dignified as Lv Ying. Even if she had to be as meticulous and serious as Feng Liu was, Lan Shi, who had learned medicine, had a lively and cheerful personality, and was the cutest little sister in the entire Twelve Protectors of Shadow.

Along the way, Lan Shi felt that he could become friends with the pure Shen Yunqing that treated the mother and daughter both very sincerely. The two lively people stuck together quickly got to know each other, and as a result, when Lan Shi said this, Lan Shi said to Bai Xian: "If Miss doesn't mind, you can call me Xiao Lan."

Bai Xian smiled, "Alright, Xiao Lan, Yun Qing, thank you."

She came to take care of Bai’s mother, but who would have thought that both of them were requested by Lan Shi to return to their room. After going through acupuncture and medicine, Bai’s mother would at least have to sleep until dusk before waking up.

Bai Xian could only return to her room. She did not expect to find a hot tub of water in her room, but she was speechless, there were no servants in the entire manor. It seemed that Lv Ying had prepared this water specially for her, and asked the Great General's bodyguards to help her with such a small matter.

After all, ever since Bai Xian entered the army camp and went through the incident of being peeked on, she had not had a proper bath these past few days. She locked the door, walked behind the screen, and quickly took off all her clothes and entered the bathtub.

In an instant, Bai Xian who was wrapped in hot water seemed to have all his fatigue washed away. She gently held the water and washed her face, untied the hairpin, and sprinkled her silky long hair down like a waterfall. One had to know that on the way here, for convenience's sake, Bai Xian had coiled all of his hair into a bun that was similar to a boy's.

No one understood better than the current White Immortal how easy it was to undo the shackles that had been binding her for many days. She sighed to herself, thinking that Lu Ying was really too meticulous. She stretched out her hand and took a comfortable bath.

After she sat on the bed drying her hair, a feeling of sleepiness suddenly came over, and unknowingly, Bai Xian fell asleep on the bed. Of course, she had worn the human skin mask just now when Bai Xian went out of the bath, so she still could not reveal her true appearance.

When Shao Yue came to visit Bai Xian, and didn't receive a reply even after knocking on the door for a long time, Shao Yue, who was worried that something would happen to Bai Xian, directly rushed into the room. Seeing Bai Xian who was peacefully sleeping with his hair in a mess, he started to wonder if this Bai Xian would give him a familiar feeling, but he couldn't figure out where this familiar feeling came from.
