He just wanted to pay the favor back to him.
"Now close your eyes." Yun Shu said as she smiled and sat by his side.
When Bai Yunxian closed his eyes, Yun Shu lightly tapped on his forehead as a little ray of light came out of her fingertip.
The next moment, Bai Yunxian was asleep.
Whew!
Yun Shu breathed a sigh of relief as she held her chest lightly.
She took a little help from the system to put Bai Yunxian to sleep.
Yun Shu didn't know that this guy felt insecure to the point where he came here willingly to sell his body.
It was really hard to believe for her as a modern woman.
But she felt thankful for the things the system provided her with.
'System, what's my status right now?'
She asked the system as she went back on her chair after tugging the guy inside the blanket.
Yun Shu saw clearly how he was shivering in the cold, but didn't want to show her his weakness.

'Oh! It's just the rise of favorability points.'
She wasn't surprised to see the status.
"I'm ready now. Show me the memory fragment of Bai Yunxian." Yun Shu said with a dark face.
Bai Yunxian was not alright. He was completely broken.
But why?
She wanted to see herself what or how much did he go through to be like this?
After leaning her back on the chair, Yun Shu closed her eyes as she prepared to travel through Bai Yunxian's memories.
***
'We have arrived. You can open your eyes now, Host.'
The system said as Yun Shu opened her eyes slowly.
This was not her room, because Yun Shu was now standing in the palace garden.
"Where is Bai Yunxian? I can't see him." Yun Shu asked the system as she started to walk within the garden.
'Continue walking, he is close by, Host.'
Yun Shu continued to walk until she heard something that made her stop in her tracks.
"You son of a b*tch! It's all because of you that His Highness doesn't come to see me in my Palace!"
Yun Shu went towards the place where the girly voice came from.
But she stopped once again when she saw the girl who was screaming at the person who was kneeling down on the ground as the blood flowed down from his forehead.
Bai Yunxian knelt in the ground quietly while looking at the ground without a word, his face devoid of any emotion, like a bird with broken wings that can't fly away.
"Why are you acting so pitiful, huh? Which man do you want to seduce now? Isn't it enough that you were able to seduce His Highness the Crown Prince?" Zhao Lily grabbed Bai Yunxian's hair as she made him look up at her.
"I said I'll do anything to get you out of the General's mansion. I told you I wanted to marry you, I loved you!"
"But you, what did you do? All you can do is just seducing someone else's man. You are nothing but a w*ore!" Zhao Lily shouted in anger as she pulled off a fistful of hair from Bai Yunxian's head.
'What the hell is this?'
Yun Shu looked at the scene before her in disbelief as both her hands turned into fists.
That blockhead forced Bai Yunxian to come into the palace, it was not his fault! How dare she bully Bai Yunxian to this extent!
But Bai Yunxian didn't have any reaction as he looked down on the ground like before, which made Zhao Lily pissed even more.
"S*ut! Why don't you talk? Look at me, talk to me!" Zhao Lily became even more angry as she was going to pull his hair again.
"What is going on here?" a deep and alluring voice came from behind which made Zhao Lily to stop in her tracks.
She turned around with a delighted face as she happily asked, "Your Highness the Crown Prince? Y-You really came to this concubines palace?"
In an instant, Zhao Lily was turned around as if she was a harmless white flower, graceful and elegant as she bowed towards Yun Si.
'So this is the Crown Prince, my so-called cousin and the bastard #1!'
Yun Shu's fist tightened without her consciousness as she looked at the person standing there.
This guy also torcured Bai Yunxian and locked him up in the palace, not knowing his limits.
Not only that, the current situation which led Zhao Lily to abuse Bai Yunxian was also because of him!
"Ah! I really want to bang that nose of his!" Yun Shu murmured with a dissatisfied voice as she stood there.
"I see that Concubine Zhao really has some special powers to herself, no? You even dare to bully my man?" Yun Si asked with a grumpy and rigid voice which made Zhao Lily feel chilling on her bones.
Her complexion turned pale as she looked at Yun Si, unable to repeat him.
"Guards! Take Concubine Zhao away and teach her a good lesson!" Yun Si flung his hand in the air as he ordered the guards to take Zhao Lily away from there.
"Your Majesty! Please, have mercy! What I did was simply teach a lesson to that guy who doesn't know his place!"
"You couldn't do this to me! I'm your Royal Concubine, and that filthy guy is nothing but a seducer! Your Majesty, please release me and kill that guy!"
"He will bring about a calamity in this nation!" Zhao Lily yelled at Yun Si without stopping as she cursed at the seemingly motionless, half dead Bai Yunxian.
He didn't seem to get any hold on the situation as of what was going on as he just knelt in the same place without moving.
