Xue Yinhuan stayed in the Imperial Palace for three days.
On the day she returned to the mansion, as soon as she stepped through the door, she heard a cheerful call, "Sister."
Xue Yinhuan paused at her steps. The young man walking toward her was as tall as she was, dressed in a narrow-cut robe with a branch pattern in lake blue. His eyebrows and eyes bore a slight resemblance to hers, his features handsome, his lips curved upward, and his smile was full of purity and delight.
Seeing him, Xue Yinhuan's eyes softened, "Ah Yin, when did you come back?"
Xue Yan's maternal family was in Jiangnan, and his grandfather was a martial arts instructor.
Since birth, Xue Yan's health was weak, so his grandfather came to the Capital specifically to take him for physical training. Xue Yan returned at most twice a year, and each time he looked better, evidently more accustomed to the Jiangnan climate than the Capital.
