She stood by Xi Zeer's side, causing Si Lianye's heart to feel sour. ”I said you're related to him, but you still refuse to admit it. Look at your expression, does it seem like you're unrelated to him?”

”Si Lianye, you have such a dirty brain, don't always think about others with such a dirty heart!” ”He and I are doctors, patients, and friends!”

She glared at him. ”Please don't always try to guess!”

He sat down beside her. ”Where did your faith in him come from?”

She pursed her lips: ”Because at that time, in the hospital, when everything around me was unfamiliar, when I was in an unfamiliar environment, when I did not recognize anyone, and even when the doctors were speaking to me, it was difficult for me to do so, and my heart was very unsettled. At that time, only Xi Zeer was willing to patiently speak to me, speak a language that I understand, console me, and help me heal my body, until I recover from my illness, would you not have placed so much trust in him?”

”I will, but I won't believe him without reason.” Si Lianye replied calmly.

”Hmph. Am I the same as you?” She glanced at him with disdain, almost saying that he was grateful for her kindness.

He was angered by her gaze and laughed: ”Xi Ran, I feel that although I can't remember the past, this kind of stubbornness is the same.”

”Is that so? ”Thank you for your compliment. No matter what you say, I won't believe you until there is real evidence to convince me.” She stood up and opened the door. ”So, now, please go out.”

He looked at her deeply for a moment, then said, ”Okay.”

Surprisingly obedient, she breathed a sigh of relief when he walked out of the room.

After so many things and so much trekking into the old palace, her physical strength had already reached its limit. She hurriedly went to the bathroom to take a bath, then immediately fell asleep after coming out.

Si Lianye lightly knocked on the door. ”Xiran, come out to eat.”

But there was no sound at all from inside.

He frowned as he gently opened the door to find her in bed, sleeping soundly.

He thought for a moment, then closed the door again.

Sister Yu was anxiously waiting for them to come down for dinner, but in the end she only waited for Si Lianye.

She asked, ”Where is Miss Xiran?”

He shook his head. ”She fell asleep. I'll send her up when she wakes up.”

”Then... ”Alright then.” Sister Yu was very disappointed.

However, she slept for a very, very long time, and only woke up the next morning. After washing up, she went downstairs to find that Si Lianye was no longer there, and the only person busy downstairs was Sister Yu.

When she heard the voice and looked over, she smiled until her eyes became slits when she saw it was her. ”You're awake. You must be hungry. Sit down for a while, I'll bring you a bowl of congee.”

After saying so, she hurriedly entered the kitchen. She looked around the living room and saw that the arrangement was very simple and generous. However, she didn't have any memory of it. She couldn't help but frown.

The Sister Yu's porridge was already cooked long ago, so she quickly brought a bowl of it over to her. ”It's been too long since you've had anything to eat, so you can't eat greasy dishes at the moment. Drink up the porridge first, I'll make some delicious things for you later at noon.”

She nodded. ”Okay.”

Lowering her head to take a look, she saw that the bowl was filled with meat porridge with a dark green color and thin cilantro. Initially, she wasn't very hungry, but the moment she smelled this fragrance, her stomach growled non-stop.

She ate up the bowl of porridge as fast as she could, and when she finished eating it, she saw Sister Yu sneakily staring at her with glistening teardrops in her eyes.

She felt embarrassed.

Therefore, she forcefully suppressed her embarrassment and put the bowl to the side. She then said to Sister Yu: ”Sister Yu, please take a seat. I have something to ask you.”

Sister Yu was stunned: You want to ask me about it?

”Actually, it's just a chat. It's nothing important, please take a seat.” she said, smiling.

”Well, then, what do you want to ask?” Sister Yu slowly sat opposite to her.

”Sister Yu, have you been in the Si Family for a long time? Otherwise, your cooking skills would not be so good. ” She complimented her first.

Sister Yu smiled, ”That's true. I know your taste, of course you would think it's pretty good.”

”Is that so? But I don't remember anything about us. ” She frowned slightly.

”Don't worry, Young Master said that you were sick, you will remember when you recover.” Sister Yu immediately comforted her.

”But I'd like to know how we met. Can you tell me?” she asked.

”About this, it's very simple. In the past, when you were hospitalized, young master was busy with work, so he asked me to take care of you because he was afraid that you had no one to take care of you.” The Sister Yu answered very straightforwardly.

”Hospital? Me? ” Her eyes widened.

Sister Yu nodded his head: ”Of course, I didn't expect you to forget about this. Your health is never good, you have been hospitalized a few times before, I have frequently gone to take care of you.”

”Is that so? I didn't expect my body to be so weak. ”

”That's right. Actually, I've been thinking about it sometimes. You're still so young, why didn't you say it out loud? It was only later on that I found out …” Sister Yu blinked her eyes. Suddenly, she felt that she said too much and stopped talking.

”Only know what?” Shen Xiran asked curiously, as if he didn't notice her awkwardness.

”I heard that your body isn't well, so it seems like you're following me …” It has something to do with young master... However, what exactly was it … ”I don't know about that …” The honest Sister Yu was suddenly asked by her, and after she said it, she realized what she had said, and her expression changed from fright: ”Ah, that's not what I meant, Miss Xilan, please don't take it to heart.”

Shen Xiran smiled merrily, as if he was not at all angry: ”It's fine, actually he's told me about this before, I'm not unhappy, don't worry.”

”Is that so? ”That's good.” Sister Yu heaved a sigh of relief. In order to prevent herself from saying the wrong things again, she hurriedly got up and took the bowl off the table: ”I still have some matters to attend to, I'm sorry Miss Xilan. If you're bored, you can go out and take a walk.

”Okay, go back to work.” She had a smile on her face as she watched Sister Yu leave in a hurry.
