Chapter 185: Bai Mingxi's New Year Gift



After Bai Miaoqing finished speaking, he sighed again, "Those writers probably didn't expect that the words they despised were written by a little girl."

Seeing that she was also very interested in the story, Shen Yu'an sat down and read the rest of the story with her.

Quarter of an hour later, Bai Miaoqing placed all the papers neatly on the table.

Then, she took out an exquisitely crafted sandalwood box from her body and handed it to Shen Yuan.

Shen Yu'an reached out to take it, "Hmm?"

Bai Miaoqing coughed lightly and explained, "Originally, my eldest brother was planning to come with us, but before the New Year was over, he was busy with many things in the shop and couldn't leave, so he asked me to bring the New Year gift he prepared for you."

"A New Year's gift for me?"

Shen Yu'an was a little confused. Didn't she and Bai Mingxi only meet once? When did they become so familiar with each other that he gave her a New Year gift?

She was not a secretive person and didn't think there was anything to hide, so she just opened the exquisite sandalwood box.

In the box lay a wooden hairpin, which was very similar to the one she bought at a jewelry store in the capital last time.

Perhaps he didn't know Shen Yu'an's preferences, or perhaps he asked for this wooden hairpin when he met Shen Yu'an that time.

In short, at first glance, the wooden hairpin in Shen Yu'an's hand is not much different from the one he bought last time.

The only difference might be the one Shen Yu’an bought last time, which had a pattern of auspicious clouds engraved on it.

The one that Bai Mingxi gave had a lifelike flower bud carved on it.

Shen Yu'an said: "I already have a hairpin like this, this one..."

Shen Yu'an felt that she was not suitable to accept the hairpin and wanted to refuse it.

Bai Miaoqing said before Shen Yu'an could refuse: "Since it has been sent to you, you can keep it and exchange it. It's not good to return the New Year gift."

When Bai Miaoqing saw the wooden hairpin, she also wanted to hold her forehead with her hand.

If Bai Mingxi had asked the woman when choosing a gift for Shen Yu'an, she would have changed it.

But since it was already brought, Bai Miaoqing could only try her best to convince Shen Yu'an to accept it.

After hearing this, Shen Yu'an really did not continue to refuse, mainly because he felt it was unnecessary as it was just a hairpin.

She casually placed the hairpin on the table, and it happened to be pressing on the loose pages of the storybook that had not yet been printed.

The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they sat together and chatted about some small things.

However, reading the story just now may have aroused the free and easy feelings in Bai Miaoqing's chest, and what the two talked about most were the stories of the underworld made up by Shen Yu'an.

Bai Miaoqing said with longing eyes: "Are there really chivalrous people in this world who are as free and easy as the ones you wrote about?"

The stories were all made up, but Shen Yu'an still thought seriously about the question raised by Bai Miaoqing.

In the Wei Dynasty, there is a martial arts world and there are knights.

The Wei court had a very loose control over the underworld. As long as they didn't commit any crimes, they would not interfere in their affairs.

Shen Yu'an then said to Bai Miaoqing: "Yes, but it shouldn't be as exaggerated as what I wrote."

Bai Miaoqing heard the affirmative answer and replied with a smile: "I used to think that life was nothing more than following the predetermined fate, getting married, raising children, and obeying parents-in-law."

"But after what happened, and after reading what you wrote, I suddenly felt that it would be nice to be a free and easy chivalrous woman wandering the world."

Shen Yu'an naturally understood what had happened, but the two of them tacitly kept silent about it.

Shen Yu'an's thoughts drifted away. Speaking of the martial arts world, the Great Wei really existed.

However, during the years when the Wei Dynasty was in turmoil, the imperial court and the underworld became entangled.

The fourth prince Wei Chenyi is worthy of being the male protagonist in the original book. He subdued several forces in the martial arts world and made a lot of efforts to seize the throne.

At the same time, in a dense forest a hundred miles away.

Fei Yanche was confronting a man carrying a sword half a man's height on his back.

The man carrying a big sword is named Chu Yi. He looks strong and bulky, and is known as the big sword knight in the martial arts world.

In short, he robs the rich to help the poor. He is a relatively upright person in the underworld, and he has quite a few followers.

At this time Chu Yi's complexion was not very good, he and Fei Yanche stood opposite each other.

"Don't waste your energy. I won't go along with people like you." Chu Yi said angrily.

"You guys, the promises you made when you were trying to win people over are all bullshit. When you got the power, you were just like those corrupt officials, sucking the blood and lives of the people to build your high-rise buildings."

Fei Yanche did not interrupt him, nor did his face show any displeasure of being rejected. He just listened to him quietly.

After he finished speaking, Fei Yanche said calmly, "Why don't you take a gamble? If you are willing to work for me, I can make you a promise that I will set you free once the big thing is accomplished."

Chu Yi spat fiercely on the ground and shouted, "I believed your mother's bullshit and followed you to gamble. You are a traitor! I roam the world alone and am free and easy. What I do is to rob the rich and help the poor. I am a good knight praised by everyone."

When talking about good knights, Chu Yi was quite proud and complacent.

He continued, "Follow you? You have nothing. If I follow you, I might not even have my head hanging on my neck one day. Whoever wants to die can die. I don't want to be an innocent ghost."

Chu Yi was about to leave after he finished speaking, but Fei Dong took a step forward and stopped him.

Chu Yi glared at Fei Dong who was blocking his way with a fierce look, then took a step to the left, intending to bypass him and leave.

But no matter whether he went left or right, Feidong would be able to stop him in front of him and prevent him from leaving.

"Damn it!"

Chu cursed angrily, then picked up the big knife on his back and slashed towards Fei Dong.

Feidong immediately fought with him.

Suddenly, the sound of wind howling and the sounds of swords clashing became louder and louder.

In just a short while, Chu Yi and Fei Dong fought for no less than a hundred rounds, and were sweating profusely in the cold winter day.

Fei Dong slashed at Chu Yi's neck with a sword.

Chu Yi cursed, quickly put away his knife and retreated backwards.

"Damn it, what on earth do you want?!!!"

Chu Yi was already cursing in his heart, he just came out to have some fun but was blocked by these perverts.

It looks like he's going to get into trouble today. He hasn't lived enough yet.

Chu Yi racked his brains to think of a way to escape.

But after going around in circles, he couldn't think of any way to escape from this group of people.

He looked at Fei Yanche and thought to himself that he was a despicable villain with no martial ethics!

So many people came to block him alone.
