Rebirth of the Unruly Little Demon of the Boliang Guard

Lin Li wiped the wine from the corner of her mouth, her face full of pain, "It's all your fault. You didn't let me drink, so I drank like that."

"Yes, yes, it's my fault. Please punish me, young lady." Xie Yu immediately stood up and knelt in front of Lin Li. "As long as young lady is safe, it's not a pity for me to die."

"Xie Yu, you get up first." Lin Li was frightened by such a scene. Xie Yu used to be arrogant and never seemed to care about anyone except Miss Meng. "Don't forget, you are my sister-in-law, not mine."

He admitted it himself that he would protect Miss Meng for the rest of her life, even after he became emperor, he still protected Miss Meng.

Lin Li sat back on the cloak, hugged her knees with her hands, and turned her back to him. She regretted saying these words without thinking. Xie Yu was originally Miss Meng's bodyguard and they had been childhood sweethearts. Besides, it would be enough for Xie Yu not to hate her. Did she have to ask him to like her too?

Lying behind Xie Yu, she stretched out her hand and poked his back, "I'm telling the truth, why are you still unhappy?"

Xie Yu sat there in a daze. Although he was the young lady's bodyguard, he could not control himself and did not know how to start talking.

"I'm not unhappy. Miss is right. I forgot my identity." Xie Yu lay next to Lin Li with his hands behind his head. "Miss, do you know why I like coming here?"

Since Xie Yu had changed the subject, Lin Li couldn't keep asking, "Why?"

"My parents and brothers are all at the frontier, a deserted place. This place is the only way to the frontier, while I am in the prosperous capital. Only here can I seem to feel them by my side." He looked at the lonely moon with a dazed look in his eyes and a blue face, as if it was about to freeze.

Lin Li lay on her side, resting her head on his chest. There was no space between them. "I'll be with you from now on, okay?"

"Okay." Even though he knew this was impossible, at this moment, Xie Yu was already content.

Leaning against the man's chest and feeling his breath, Lin Li felt that she had merged with him. "I was drunk that day, and it wasn't because I drank with Prince Wang. To be honest, I was very unlucky. I actually met a group of rude men. He forced me to drink with him. Everyone around was afraid of him. I was unarmed and couldn't fight him head-on."

Listening to Lin Li calmly telling what had happened to her, Xie Yu immediately became furious. He anxiously wanted to sit up, find that group of people immediately, and tear them into pieces.

Feeling the rise and fall of Xie Yu's chest, Lin Li placed her jade hand on the man's chest and slowly brushed away his anger. "Fortunately, Prince Wang saved me. The group of people have been arrested by the government. I believe that good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be punished with evil."

In any case, Lin Li felt it necessary to explain the matter to Xie Yu. She didn't care what other people thought, she just didn't want Xie Yu to misunderstand her.

Xie Yu grabbed Lin Li's hand on his chest and took a deep breath, "Everything is over. It's okay."

Lin Li suddenly realized something. It seemed that as long as she stayed away from Xie Yu, troubles would come her way. Somehow, she was destined that he was her true love.

She was so sleepy that she kept yawning. At this time in the past, she would have fallen asleep long ago, or even woken up once.

"Let's go back home." Xie Yu let go of Lin Li's hand.

"But didn't you say you would stay here all night?"

"It's windy at night, and Miss is weak, so you should go back early," Xie Yu helped Lin Li sit up, "Thank you very much, Miss, for accompanying me."

On the way back, Lin Li was still riding on the horse face to face with Xie Yu. She hid in the cloak, hugged Xie Yu's waist, and slept in his arms.

~~

"Miss, you're awake. The water for washing your face is ready," Yuzhu opened the curtain. Lin Li sat on the bed expressionlessly. Her whole body ached, but it was not the same pain as before. It might be that she was too weak and tired from riding a horse, so she felt so uncomfortable, especially her thighs. When she was changing clothes, she found that they were red, as if they were bleeding.

Putting on shoes, "Is Jane feeling better?"

Yuzhu prepared clothes for Lin Li and said, "Don't worry, Miss. The doctor has come to see her and she is fine now."

"That's good. She was seriously injured this time. Let her take good care of herself. Have you prepared the ginseng and donkey-hide gelatin for her?"

After Lin Li woke up, she asked Yuzhu to ask the housekeeper to get these supplements for Zhen'er. The housekeeper knew that it was Miss Lin's order and did not dare to neglect it, for fear that Miss Lin would cause chaos in the mansion again.

"I've already given it to her as the young lady instructed," Yuzhu put the clothes on the bed and picked up a bottle of medicine and handed it to her.

"What is this?"

Last night, after Xie Yu sent Lin Li back, he returned not long after and gave the bottle of medicine to Yuzhu, asking the young lady to apply the medicine and rest, so that the pain would not be so severe the next day.

But Miss Lin was already asleep at that time, and Yuzhu didn't dare to wake her up. She wanted to apply medicine on her, but she didn't know where Miss Lin was injured.

"Guard Xie sent it last night. Where is Miss injured? Do you need a doctor?"

Lin Li took the medicine bottle and held it in her hand. It was a private area and it wasn't serious, so there was no need to make a big fuss. "No, it's just a scratch. Help me wash up."

However, Xie Yu was a careful person. Lin Li was so sleepy that she forgot about her injury, but he still remembered it.

In the afternoon, Lin Li and Yuzhu were enjoying the cool under the grape trellis in the yard, with some chilled grapes on the table.

Holding a needle and a piece of cloth, Yuzhu had already drawn a pattern on the cloth. Lin Li followed Yuzhu to learn embroidery, but she was always unsuccessful and kept getting her fingers pricked by the needle, even bleeding.

"Miss, if you really can't do it, then just don't embroider it." It was obvious that this lady was not someone who could embroider.

"That won't do." Miss Meng had already given Xie Yu a sachet, so if she didn't give him one, she would be left behind. "I've only just started learning, and practice makes perfect."

"Oh, you are in such a good mood. When you were forced to learn when you were a child, you cried and made a fuss. Why are you willing to learn now?" The eldest lady was standing at the door, and her voice reached Lin Li's ears.

Putting down what he was holding, he went to greet the eldest lady, "Madam, why are you here?"

The maid stood aside, Yuzhu went to pour tea, Lin Li and the eldest lady sat together, the lady held her hand, "A few days ago, I heard that you were not feeling well, and I was busy, so I didn't come to see you."

Although the eldest lady's people did not show up, she sent people to deliver all her supplements. Lin Li received her kindness.
