Chapter 516: Apprenticeship Banquet



The apprenticeship banquet Yaoyao had prepared was scheduled for the next day. Tian An had simply handed it over to her, leaving it alone without even inviting any friends.

But the next morning, all the good friends still arrived early.

Tian An then realized that Yaoyao, the girl, had not even offered tea to her master yet, but she had already exercised her rights as an apprentice and sent several invitations to Zuo Yunshu in the name of her first disciple, without even forgetting Peng's account.

Several people were also curious about what kind of disciple Tian An had accepted, so they rushed here early in the morning. They thought that the person Tian An would like would be a powerful, talented and potential character, but they didn't expect that it would be a cute girl.

If the girl hadn't been calling them "Master" all the time with a happy and excited look on her face, they would have thought that Tian An had kidnapped her from somewhere.

Wu Yufei and Wei Lingran had never met Yaoyao before, and they were so flattered by her sweet sister that they secretly pulled Tian An aside to ask, "Sister An An, where did you find this little apprentice? She's so adorable!"

Zuo Yunshu and Song Zhiyun's eyes met and they looked at each other. They always felt as if they had seen this little girl before somewhere.

It was not until the apprenticeship banquet began that Prince Xiao Chen and the Crown Prince arrived late. Everyone heard Yaoyao calling them the eldest brother and the third brother in person, and complaining that they were late. Only then did the two of them realize that they had met at the palace banquet.

Peng Zhang, who was happily enjoying a piece of cake that Yaoyao had personally handed him, was petrified instantly. Oh my god! Isn't the prince's sister a princess?

Subconsciously looking at the pastry that had just been brought to his mouth, he quickly put the pastry back on the plate, and then packed up the plate together with it.

The princess herself brought him this cake! He had to take it back to let his parents have a taste. He always said the old man had never seen the world, so this time he had to open his eyes.

There are princes and princesses in the room. Today is a high-end game. The old man will never be able to surpass him in his life.

As soon as Xiao Chen entered the house, he pestered Gu Jinyan. Seeing this, Yaoyao sweetly called her the Third Emperor's wife.

Gu Jinyan accepted it with a blushing face, and hurriedly took an exquisite little gift box from the maid and handed it to her.

This gift was originally intended to be prepared for Tian An's eldest disciple at the apprenticeship banquet later, but unexpectedly, the disciple Tian An accepted was Yaoyao, so now he could only give it to her as her personal meeting gift.

Yaoyao accepted the gift from her future sister-in-law and ran away happily to greet other people.

Gu Jinyan was in a dilemma. She had only prepared one gift, which she had just given as a meeting gift. What should she do with the apprenticeship gift later?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glared at Xiao Chen, "Knowing that An An's apprentice is Yaoyao, you didn't inform me in advance. What should I do now?"

Xiao Chen smiled and took out a box from his sleeve pocket and handed it to her, "Don't worry! I've prepared everything for you."

After saying that, he started to criticize Yaoyao again, "This girl is always thinking of something. I just found out what tricks she used to make my father, the emperor, and my mother, the queen, agree to let her leave the palace to become my disciple.

You received the invitation yesterday, but that girl deliberately informed me only today. I didn't have time to inform you, so I could only prepare an extra gift for you."

After Xiao Chen finished speaking, he thought he could get Gu Jinyan's forgiveness, but he didn't expect that what he got in return was a rebuke, "How can a brother talk about his sister like that?

Yaoyao started preparing for the apprenticeship ceremony as soon as she left the palace yesterday. She must have been so busy that she forgot. How can you say she did it on purpose?"

Xiao Chen was stunned by what he said. He turned to look at Yaoyao, and when he saw her blinking at him twice cunningly, he knew that she must have done it on purpose.

Suddenly, he realized that this girl had deliberately dug a trap to bury him here! Fortunately, he was smart, otherwise he would have fallen into this girl's hands today.

Seeing his third brother's expression, Yaoyao knew what he was thinking and immediately sneered. "Hmph! He took her kindness for granted. She gave him such a good opportunity to be a hero and save the damsel in distress, and he took advantage of it and still acted ungratefully."

The "highly anticipated" apprenticeship banquet finally began. Today, Tian An was the protagonist, and Tian Mingwu and the prince both took the initiative to give up the main seat to her.

After Madam Xiao stood in the middle of the hall and said a long speech of auspicious words, the auspicious time arrived.

Yaoyao performed the apprenticeship ceremony to Tian An, then took the apprenticeship tea from the maid and handed it to Tian An respectfully.

Tian An took the tea and took a sip. After putting down the teacup, he took a box from the table beside him and handed it to her. "This is your initiation gift from your master. I hope you can use this set of silver needles to heal illnesses and save lives soon."

Yaoyao opened the box and found a set of silver needles inside. She had seen the set used by Tian An, and it was exactly the same as this one.

Feeling Tian An's appreciation for her, Yaoyao's eyes narrowed into crescents with joy, and she repeatedly assured him, "Master, don't worry. I will study hard and strive to become a master as soon as possible."

Yaoyao stood up and took the apprenticeship gift she had prepared for Tian An from the palace maid, presenting it personally. "While in the palace, I noticed that Master liked this night-shining pearl. I happen to have one in my possession, so I'm offering it to Master. I hope you like it."

Yaoyao opened the red lacquer wooden box in her hand, and the fist-sized night pearl was revealed to everyone, emitting a faint glow even in the daytime.

"This..." Tian An hesitated. This gift was too expensive and she couldn't accept it!

"Since it is Yaoyao's sincere gift, please accept it!" When the prince saw Tian An hesitated, he knew what she was thinking and began to persuade her.

Tian An also knew that this was Yaoyao's intention. Since the little girl was willing to give her such a valuable thing, it meant that she cared about her.

But she looked at the box of silver needles that Yaoyao held in her arms like a treasure with some awkwardness, and always felt a little guilty.

She exchanged the silver needle for the night pearl. No matter how you look at it, she seems to be a stingy master. Those who don't know her would think that she deliberately cheated her apprentice of her treasure.

Yaoyao saw Tian An staring at the silver needles in her arms and thought she had changed her mind and wanted to take them back. She quickly stuffed the night pearl in her hand into Tian An's hand like a hot potato, and then held the silver needle box tightly with both hands, as if she would bite anyone who tried to grab it.

Tian An was holding the egg-sized night pearl in his hand, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He never expected that such a precious treasure would one day be discarded like a piece of trash.

After the apprenticeship ceremony, Yaoyao formally met Tian An’s friends. The princess condescended to serve tea to everyone, and then accepted the various gifts carefully prepared by her brothers and sisters.

Peng Zhang had confidently prepared a emerald green jade ruyi as a gift, but when he arrived he found out that Tian An's apprentice was actually a princess. When he saw that Princess Yaoyao had generously given Tian An a night-shining pearl, he suddenly felt that his gift was not good enough.

After thinking about it, he finally gritted his teeth and took out the piece of warm jade raw stone he had just obtained before giving up?

But after receiving the gift, Yaoyao didn't even look at it carefully. After simply thanking her, she handed the gift to the personal maid behind her.

Instead, he held the box of silver needles given by Tian An the whole time, and was reluctant to put it down for even a second.

I guess Night Pearl and Warm Jade never imagined that one day they would be defeated by a box of silver needles.
