Su Xiaoyu was surprised when she opened the door, but that quickly turned into a cry of fear. “Master!”
Zhao mama and Baili Mingxiang both called Han Yunxi esteemed wangfei. Su Xiaoyu used to do that too, but after losing her memory, she suddenly started calling Han Yunxi “master” one day. She didn’t care what kind of person Han Yunxi was; she only knew that the woman had saved her life. Taking a sudden stride forward, she circled around her while examining her from head to toe.
“Master, you’ve finally come back? You’re a lot skinnier.” Her tone of voice, expression, and gaze were a complete mismatch to her actual age. The maturity level was on par with Zhao mama herself. Fortunately, she wasn’t as chatty as the old woman; nor did she know how to make old hen soup.
“You’re the one who’s gotten skinnier!” If Long Feiye hears her words, he’ll make Zhao mama cook me soup again. Han Yunxi rapped her fingers against Su Xiaoyu’s forehead. “Did you do anything bad while I was gone?”
Su Xiaoyu blinked her wide eyes and was about to give a shrewd answer when she suddenly exclaimed, “Baili Mingxiang, you’re crying? Although master’s back, you have no reason to be this moved?”
Baili Mingxiang knew that Su Xiaoyu was acting. Moreover, her words held hidden barbs. She smiled and seized the chance to say, “Of course I’m touched that esteemed wangfei’s returned.”
“So you wouldn’t be touched if His Highness Duke of Qin came instead? Hmph, I’m telling His Highness Duke of Qin!” Su Xiaoyu teased and threatened simultaneously.
Baili Mingxiang was about to explain when Han Yunxi stopped them both. She assumed that the woman didn’t want Su Xiaoyu to know she’d been crying about her mother, so she simply diverted the topic. “Be quiet, both of you. Don’t wake Zhao mama. Both of you should go back to bed.”
As she walked off, Baili Mingxiang chased after her. “Esteemed wangfei, this servant can give you some snacks. What would you like to at?”
“Master, I’ll make your favorite mango drink really fast! You should rest in the meantime!” Su Xiaoyu exclaimed, before running for the kitchens. Han Yunxi ended up having the helpless Baili Mingxiang sit in the rooms instead.
“Has everything been going well at Pill Fiend Pharmacy over the past period of time?” Han Yunxi asked.
It was originally Gu Beiyue in charge of the pharmacy, but once he left, the task was given to Mu Linger. Then she left too, so Baili Mingxiang rose to shoulder the burden. Her skills weren’t on par with Mu Linger’s, but she was more reliable than the girl in other ways.
“Esteemed wangfei, everything’s been going well with the pharmacy. Medicine City sends their deliveries on time and all of the branch shops are operating smoothly. However, we’ve been getting a lot of visits from merchants recently to discuss wholesale business deals,” Baili Mingxiang reported.
Han Yunxi smiled coldly. “Can’t they go to Medicine City for that? Why run all the way to Pill Fiend Pharmacy instead?”
