Lan Yan was helpless. Looking at the shuttlecock in her hand, she smiled and said, "Do you know that there are many tricks to kicking a shuttlecock?" She tossed the shuttlecock into the air, lifted the hem of her skirt, and casually kicked it.
The shuttlecock danced on her legs, never falling to the ground. The younger siblings were all mesmerized.
They had forgotten their fear, their eyes fixed on the shuttlecock. When it returned to Lan Yan's hands, they shouted, "Eldest Sister is so amazing!" After saying that, they fearfully retreated.
Lan Yan then crouched down, touched their heads, and smiled, "I'll play with you today and teach you how to kick, okay?"
The three younger siblings all nodded slightly and followed Lan Yan out.
Seeing this, a smile appeared on Lan Yan's lips. It seemed she was quite good at coaxing children. If only Jun Yelan were also a child, she wouldn't be so troubled.
For the rest of the afternoon, she accompanied her younger siblings in kicking the shuttlecock. Watching the smiles on their faces, her worries also disappeared, and she decided to go back and try to coax him again with all her might.
"Goodbye, little sprouts."
After she left, the three younger siblings looked at Lan Ya and asked, "Second Sister, why has Eldest Sister changed? She seems to have become gentler."
"Let me tell you, it's because Eldest Sister has a secret lover. She fell for a man from the snake tribe and changed for him. Anyway, the way Eldest Sister treats that man is a side of her I've never seen before, especially gentle and caring."
"Oh." The three younger siblings didn't quite understand, but they grasped one thing: a man had changed their Eldest Sister. They became curious about what kind of person could have such a great influence.
They really wanted to meet him.
Lan Yan had already returned to her room and saw that Jun Yelan had woken up and was watching her warily. She first sighed, then picked up the medicine bottle from the table and said, "Go to the bed, I'll apply medicine for you."
"No need, I can do it myself." Jun Yelan retracted his snake tail, knowing Lan Yan disliked it and always tortured his tail harshly. He reached for the medicine bottle in Lan Yan's hand, but she dodged.
He knew Lan Yan was just pretending and couldn't keep it up anymore. He withdrew his hand and continued to curl up.
Lan Yan didn't know what Jun Yelan was thinking, only that if he continued like this, it would be even harder for him to recover. She rolled up her sleeves and said, "If you don't go, I'll carry you."
Jun Yelan was startled. Seeing Lan Yan's arms already reaching out, he struggled to climb up by grabbing the window and said coldly, "I'll go myself." When did this woman become so bold, and not even dislike him?
Lan Yan behind him showed a triumphant smile. She had finally found a way to deal with Jun Yelan. She walked to the bedside with an air of determination, as if she would apply the medicine herself if Jun Yelan didn't comply, successfully touching the wound.
The cool medicine applied to Jun Yelan's body made him feel much better. He lowered his head and could see Lan Yan's slightly trembling eyelashes and her chattering mouth.
Actually, Lan Yan had a somewhat charming appearance and could be considered a beauty. But thinking of her temperament, he shifted his gaze, his eyes filled with coldness. Then, he felt a sudden pain in his snake tail. He tried to retract it, but it was held down.
"You don't need to apply it here." He still remembered the disgusted look Lan Yan had when she first saw his snake tail. Besides, for men of their snake tribe, their tails could not be touched by women at will.
Lan Yan looked at the medicine in her hand and said, "I'm almost done. Does it hurt a bit? Bear with it." Seeing cold sweat appearing on Jun Yelan's forehead, she leaned down and gently blew on the wound.
Jun Yelan was even more shocked. What was she doing! He couldn't help but blurt out, "Don't you find it disgusting?"
"Not at all, I think it's very beautiful." Lan Yan looked up at Jun Yelan and smiled with utmost sincerity.
Jun Yelan was stunned, his heart instantly racing. He clenched his fist and said, "But you said it was ugly before!"
Lan Yan: "..." It was over. She couldn't get past the original owner's mistakes.
