The next morning, Ye Ling woke up early due to her biological clock. After folding her blanket, she went to the courtyard to wash up.
She planned to return to the dormitory today to wash the blanket and bedsheets on the bed.
As Ye Ling was washing up, she suddenly felt someone’s gaze on her. She turned her head and met Min Nan’s gaze. At first, neither of them spoke.
After a few seconds, just as Ye Ling was about to say something, Min Nan spoke, “Are you going out today? I’ll accompany you.”
Observing that Ye Ling had changed into outdoor shoes, Min Nan guessed that she might be going out.
Ye Ling nodded and said, “I’m going back to the dormitory. Big Brother Min
Nan, you can go back to work. I’ll go by myself.”
While the morning streets weren’t crowded, it was still possible to encounter some villagers. However, Ye Ling wasn’t concerned about gossip.
She had stated before that as long as her relationship with Min Nan was innocent, she wouldn’t be afraid of rumors. Having already experienced death once, she cared less about others’ opinions compared to her previous life.
The reason she didn’t want Min Nan to accompany her was that she felt embarrassed about her tantrum toward him the previous day.
Min Nan’s expression darkened. Was Ye Ling still upset?
“Then, let Wan Xue accompany you. I worry about you going alone.” With that, Min Nan turned around and called Wan Xue over. He gave Wan Xue a few words of advice.
Wan Xue was also aware of Wang Gang’s situation and reassured, “Brother Min
Nan, don’t worry. I’ll make sure to protect Sister Lingling!”
After breakfast, Ye Ling and Wan Xue set off for the dormitory together.
Arriving at the dormitory building, just as Ye Ling was about to climb the stairs, she overheard conversations from upstairs.
“Did Ye Ling return to the dormitory yesterday?”
“No, I heard she brought a package and left with Min Nan and Li Bin. Could she have gone to stay at Min Nan’s place?”
“Unbelievable, she’s shameless. She’s only been in Willow Village for a few days and she’s already caused three men to fight over her. Is she the legendary femme fatale? We don’t have such charm.”
“She looks innocent, but who knows how many men she’s secretly involved with. No wonder her reputation was bad back in Stone Village.”
Soon, a group of young female scholars who were conversing appeared at the staircase. When they noticed Ye Ling, a hint of panic flashed in their eyes.
However, they quickly composed themselves and walked past Ye Ling without acknowledging her.
Wan Xue glared at them. If it weren’t for Ye Ling holding his arm, he would have confronted them.
Ye Ling smiled calmly and told Wan Xue, “It’s alright. People have their own opinions, and we can’t control their thoughts. Let them talk. I’m not bothered.”
Wan Xue couldn’t help but mutter, “Sister Lingling, you’re too easygoing. Are you going to let them bully you like this?”
Ye Ling chuckled. “They’re just talking behind my back. They haven’t done anything too extreme. If they provoke me, I won’t let it slide.”
Ye Ling and Wan Xue went upstairs together. Ye Ling took out a can of homemade mint candy from the drawer and offered it to Wan Xue, who initially hesitated to accept, thinking that Ye Ling had bought it.
“I made these myself. Try them and see if they’re delicious. If you like them, I’ll make other flavors for you in the future.” Ye Ling explained with a smile.
Wan Xue’s eyes widened. ‘Wow, Sister Lingling, you’re amazing!”
He liked this sister-in-law.
At that moment, Wan Xue even found Min Nan too slow in progressing their relationship. They hadn’t officially become a couple yet.
While Wan Xue enjoyed the candy, Ye Ling placed the bedding into a wooden basin and took it outside to wash. Afterward, she hung it on a bamboo pole in the corridor.
After washing the bedsheets and blankets, Ye Ling and Wan Xue prepared to go back.
As they descended the stairs, Ye Ling noticed a petite young female scholar struggling to climb the stairs. However, the young woman’s face was pale, and her expression worsened with each step.
Ye Ling’s lips moved. She wanted to step forward to help, but she remembered that the young female scholar in this building might not have a good impression of her. After hesitating for a moment, she decided against intervening.
However, what Ye Ling and Wan Xue didn’t anticipate was that she would collapse and faint halfway up the stairs..
