Seeing the conflicted look on her face, Si Jia knew she couldn't make a decision, so he asked, "Which one do you not like?"
“This…and this…” Feng Guang answered instinctively when someone asked her a question. She was referring to hairpins with overly complicated designs.
He said to the shopkeeper, "Wrap up everything except these two."
Not only the shopkeeper, but even Feng Guang was stunned.
Immediately afterward, she hurriedly said, "Wait!"
Sijia looked at her, waiting for her to say something.
Feng Guang pulled him aside and whispered, "Why buy so many? It's not only expensive, but I can't wear all of them!"
"Wearing different hairpins in the morning, noon, and evening is a good idea."
"Oh no!" She was amazed by his thought process, and then muttered to herself, "Even if you have money, you can't spend it like this. Besides, the money you earn... you risked your life for. You should save it carefully."
Si Jia's quiet expression gradually softened with tenderness.
Feng Guang pulled him back to the counter, then gritted her teeth, pointed to a butterfly hairpin and said, "I want this one, I want this one."
"Uh... young lady, your husband said he wanted to buy all of these for you." The shopkeeper reminded her, not wanting to miss out on such a big deal.
She was determined, "I only want this one."
The shopkeeper looked at Si Jia, "This young master..."
Si Jia said gently, "Listen to her."
"Yes..." Since that's what they said, the shopkeeper couldn't say anything more. However, this was the first time he had seen a female customer like this. In the past, which woman would drag her husband to buy jewelry without making a fuss about buying it? Now, this man said he would buy it all for this young lady, but she refused.
It's such a waste of his big deal.
The shopkeeper had no idea that the young master was only thinking about saving money to get married, which seemed like a good thing. As for having children, he had completely ignored those two words.
After leaving the jewelry store, the red ribbon in Fengguang's hair had been replaced by a gold hairpin. She had never liked complicated things or elaborate hairstyles, so she simply tied her hair into a bun with the gold hairpin. Although it was simple, her beautiful face made up for it.
But as soon as she stepped out of the jewelry store, she suddenly remembered something, and her expression turned strange for a moment.
Si Jia asked, "What's wrong?"
“I was thinking… that day I thought you were short of money, so I took that hairpin and gave it to you, hoping you would give up being an assassin. But then I suddenly realized that you don’t seem to be short of money. So wasn’t I just giving it away for nothing?”
He casually said, "Even if Fengguang wants the hairpin back, I won't give it to you."
"Once something is given away, there's no reason to ask for it back. I just don't understand, if you're not short of money, why do you become an assassin?"
His gaze darkened at the mention of this. "I am from Wuji Tower."
Wuji Tower is an assassin organization that claims that as long as you can afford it, there is no target they cannot kill. To this day, no one knows who the leader of Wuji Tower is, because the leader of Wuji Tower never shows his face.
In the martial arts world, there has never been a case of an assassin being able to leave Wuji Tower.
After recalling the original text's description of the Wuji Tower, Feng Guang asked, "So... if the Wuji Tower gives you a mission, you have to carry it out, right?"
