Shui Xian repeatedly waved her hand: "No need, no need, my mother's health is already much better. I just want to help nourish her body. Slave thanks Miss for her concern."
Since that was the case, Lin Yuan didn't persist further and let her go back to the mansion to get an advance of silver from Butler Zhou.
"Don't you find it a bit strange?"
After Shui Xian left, Xia Zheng twirled a strand of her hair by her temple while curiously asking her.
Lin Yuan raised her eyebrows, her eyes revealing comprehension: "Strange? How so? The two of them are as close as sisters; it's only natural for one to help the other in times of trouble."
Xia Zheng curled his lips, brought the strand of hair under his nose, and took a pleasant sniff, remarking: "It smells good."
Lin Yuan's face flushed red, and she snatched her hair back from his hand with a huff.
