Xie Qiqi knew she was indulging in wishful thinking, but she had no other choice.
"Sir, could you please take Yan’er in? Once she recovers, she can help you with your work—mending, cooking, she can do it all!" Xie Qiqi gathered her courage and continued, "I’ve studied medicine under my master; injuries are inevitable for you men of the Jinyiwei. If you need me in the future, I’ll be at your beck and call!"
The Jinyiwei were notorious in the Capital City, and people went out of their way to avoid them. Yet, Xie Qiqi didn't care about such reputations. Moyuan had saved her, and Li Nan and his men had never treated Yan’er like a mere servant. With just one request from her, they had rescued her. This was far better than her so-called "gentleman" elder brothers, who didn't even treat servants like human beings. She couldn't protect Yan’er on her own, but with their protection, no one would dare bully her again.
