"you..."
How did you know!
Ruo Qingyan gritted her teeth, looking like she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Her face flushed slightly, and she was still thinking:
How did he know?
Did Xiao Hui tell him?
Wait a minute... I didn't tell Xiaohui either!
Glancing at Xiao Hui beside her, Xiao Hui asked in confusion:
"So, the Holy Maiden is going to buy a gift."
"no!"
If Qingyan immediately retorted, she quickly said:
"You're overthinking it. I just need to go home for a bit."
Seeing her shy expression, Fengling guessed what was going on and couldn't help but feel amused.
He asked with a smile:
What gift are you planning to buy for my wife's birthday?
Ruo Qingyan felt a little shy when she saw his mocking smile, and quickly said:
"I didn't say I was going to buy it for you."
"Oh? You'll be sad if you don't buy it for me. My favorite person, the person I love most, won't celebrate my birthday. It hurts...it hurts so much..."
The wind chime looked suffocated, its face full of sadness.
Of course, it was obviously an act; he was just giving Ruo Qingyan a way out.
If Qingyan also knew to take the opportunity to back down, she would say:
"I'll just browse around on my way home... but don't get your hopes up too high, I'll just do some casual shopping..."
She was worried that the wind chimes she gave as a gift wouldn't be liked, so she took precautions in advance.
The wind chimes chuckled expectantly.
"Then thank you in advance, honey..."
"No need, I was just passing by and saw you looked pitiful, so I bought you one..."
"Mmm, I know, hehe."
As she spoke, Fengling stepped forward and took Ruo Qingyan's hand, wanting to kiss her, but Ruo Qingyan blushed and refused her without hesitation.
After all, Xiao Hui was watching with wide eyes, so she felt a little embarrassed.
Fengling naturally knew, and glanced at Xiaohui beside her, her face full of disdain.
Xiao Hui saw the wind chime and tried to kiss it but failed. She then gave it a mocking look, completely unaware that it was all her fault.
Before leaving, Ruo Qingyan didn't forget to remind Fengling:
"You're not allowed to follow me, and you can't send Tianya and the others to follow me either!"
The birthday gift loses its meaning if it's known in advance.
Fengling smiled and nodded; "Don't worry."
"But I'm still worried about you going alone."
"It's alright, this capital city is, after all, under the jurisdiction of the Ruo family..."
Ruo Qingyan said this.
The wind chime thought for a moment:
"Let Lei Jingyun go with you. Hehe..."
Xiao Hui knew that Feng Ling was definitely trying to annoy Lei Jingyun.
Ruo Qingyan also shook her head directly:
"No need. If you're worried, I'll have Brother Ruo come with me."
"Let's add Yin Kongmen too. I'll feel more at ease with the two of them together."
At this moment, Ruo Guancheng and Yin Kongmen were with Ruo Ouming and Lei Hong.
So Fengling invited the two of them along as well.
Ruo Qingyan: ...
I just went out to buy a gift... How can I choose one with so many people following me?
However, she had already come up with a plan, so Ruo Qingyan and Xiao Hui, along with four burly men, hurriedly left the Feng family's otherworld.
Sky Crow said softly:
"Young Master, do you need this old minister to protect you secretly?"
The wind chime shook its head:
"No need, the butler can keep an eye on things."
The Feng family has now returned to the capital from their otherworldly existence, and the steward keeps a close eye on the situation in the capital.
It's as if the capital belongs to the Feng family; they seem to care about it even more than Ruo Tinghan.
After leaving the other world, Ruo Guancheng said:
"Junior sister, has something happened at home?"
Ruo Qingyan shook her head:
"Nothing much, I just went back to get something."
Then we headed straight to the shopping street in Beijing.
If Guan Cheng and others were thinking:
Aren't we going home?
At this moment, Ruo Qingyan said calmly:
"It's been a long time since I've been back. I'll buy some things for my father, and while I'm at it... pick out a birthday present for that brat..."
She continued explaining to herself, and the last four words were barely audible if she spoke any softer.
Everyone had already seen through it all.
You just want to buy your little husband a gift, right...?
However, Ruo Qingyan hasn't decided what to give Feng Ling yet.
Should we send something from the mortal world, or some spiritual artifacts?
Or is it an item used exclusively by spirit masters?
She had actually been thinking about it for a long time, but she had never picked out a birthday gift for anyone else.
All the social gifts she received as a child were given to her by her father, Ruotinghan, in her name.
Suddenly, she saw a gift shop, so Ruo Qingyan told Ruo Guancheng and the others to wait outside while she went inside.
As soon as we entered, the shop assistant smiled and said:
Wow, beautiful lady, you're so pretty!
Ruo Qingyan smiled politely:
"Thank you, you're very beautiful too..."
As soon as Ruo Qingyan entered the store, all the customers, men and women alike, couldn't help but look over.
Everyone was immediately struck by her beauty; they never imagined that such an ethereal woman existed in the mortal world.
The woman's eyes were full of envy, while the man's eyes shone with admiration.
Ruo Qingyan was already used to this, and simply led Xiao Hui into the shop.
After looking around and finding nothing suitable, he whispered to Xiaohui:
What should I give as a gift?
Xiao Hui scratched her head, "How would I know?"
However, since the Holy Maiden asked, she had to answer.
"Um...give me some clothes?"
At this moment, the sales assistant noticed and walked over with a smile:
