If $x$ and $y$ are eigenvectors of a Hermitian matrix corresponding to distinct eigenvalues, then $x$ and $y$ are orthogonal with respect to the standard inner product on $\mathbb{C}^{n\times1}$.
What I know that $x$ and $y$ are hermitian if $x = x^*$ and $y = y^*$ and that the standard inner product of $\mathbb{C}^{n\times1}$ is $y^*x$. But I don't know how to relate the orthogonality with respect to the standard inner product $\mathbb{C}^{n\times1}$.
Here $x$ and $y$ are not "hermitian". That applies to square matrices, not to vectors. The situation you have is that there is a hermitian matrix $H$ with $$ Hx=\lambda x,\ \ Hy=\mu y,$$ with $\lambda\ne\mu$.
Now, as $\lambda,\mu$ are both real (from $H$ hermitian), $$ \lambda y^*x=y^*(\lambda x)=y^*Hx=(Hy)^*x=(\mu y)^*x={\mu}y^*x. $$ From $\lambda\ne\mu$, the above equality can only happen if $y^*x=0$.
