Chen Yichen turned his head and glanced at her.
She was very cautious about questions that shouldn’t be asked, and she had a sense of propriety.
She was sensible and knew when to advance and when to retreat.
She neither deliberately tried to climb socially and take advantage of the Chen family status, nor did she expect them to reward her for all the lifesaving she’d done for the family.
In a family like the Yun family, it was really rare to have been able to raise her to be so considerate.
Even the young madames who had received elite educations in Jingdu might not be able to understand how to act in the face of so many temptations.
“Curiosity killed the cat. I won’t ask about things that I shouldn’t know about. After all, I still cherish my life.”
“Really? It’s very good that you cherish your life.”
Chen Yichen glanced at her. The smile at the corners of his mouth seemed a little bitter.
His third uncle had told him about the assassination attempt on Christmas Eve.
Although the news had been blocked from common consumption, he was the eldest grandson of the Chen family, and the future head of the family, so the elders in the family wouldn’t hide things that he should know from him.
When she’d run back to fight side by side with Young Marshal Mu, did she ever think that she was about to face professional assassins who had expert marksmanship?
Had she ever thought about how she was just a girl, so she shouldn’t take such a risk?
When she ran back to join him, she probably wasn’t thinking about anything, right?
He didn’t want her to have anything to do with Young Marshal Mu’s world. It was a man’s world, a man’s world!
She was a young girl and shouldn’t bear so many responsibilities and dangers way before her time.
She should do what she liked to do, save people and heal the wounded, just like she’d been doing when they’d first met.

Instead, now she used her hands that had originally rescued people to hurt people.
They went to an old Chinese restaurant. When Chen Yichen was about to order, Yun Xi reached out and took the menu. “I’ll order for us.”
“Okay! Order whatever you want to eat.”
Yun Xi scanned the dishes on the menu. She choose the names of several nourishing dishes and then handed the menu back to the waiter.
Chen Yichen listened to her soft, gentle voice order the names of the dishes. “Black chicken soup is nourishing. The weather has been cold recently. I guess you’ve been pulling several all-nighters, right? Add a cup of red date wolfberry tea…”
After ordering all the dishes, Yun Xi handed the menu back to the waiter. Then she raised her eyes to meet Chen Yichen’s gentle eyes.
Yun Xi felt a little embarrassed and raised her hand to touch her face. “What’s wrong?”
“No, nothing.” Leaning against the back of the chair, Chen Yichen smiled with a gentle expression in his clear eyes. “I still think you’re the cutest when you have the benevolence of a doctor.”
Benevolence of a doctor…
Listening to these four words, Yun Xi lowered her eyes slightly. She played with the warm barley water in her hand, and her rosy lips seemed to have a hint of bitterness.
There had been a lot of things happening recently, and the meaning of these four words to her was no longer as pure and simple as before.
Mu Feichi was right. Her hands can save or hurt people.
There was a thin line between saving and hurting people. She killed people who deserved to be killed: the sinful.
It was just that in many cases she couldn’t do it with peace of mind. She wasn’t as omnipotent as Mu Feichi. She couldn’t help but blame herself, and she hated herself when she was hurting people.
“There are some things that you can’t choose yourself, so just have to follow your own heart.”
“Follow your heart…? Is following Young Marshal Mu following your heart? I know you want to be strong, but I don’t want to see you suffer. It’s okay for girls to be pampered.”
Yun Xi smiled and shook her head. “No, I have something I want to chase after. I have to put in the effort. No pain, no gain.”
