Chapter 404 - 404 Greetings, Elder Brother
404 Greetings, Elder Brother
“Greetings, Elder Brother,” Shangguan Yun’er bowed and said softly.
Dong Xi continued, “This is my beloved wife whom I mentioned to my two brothers yesterday. She is Shangguan Yun’er. The heavens must have blessed me. I am able to obtain such a beautiful wife because I was able to catch the ball of silk amongst tens of thousands of people…”
Rui Ming looked at Shangguan Yun’er and frowned. Rui Ming’s gaze was also a little confused…
As Dong Xi spoke, she suddenly saw that something was wrong with Rui Ming. She was shocked and secretly used a Soul Awakening Spell. Dong Xi said, “Senior Brother!”
Only then did Rui Ming come back to his senses, and the gaze he gave Shangguan Yun’er became even more complicated.
Shangguan Yun’er also felt an inexplicable closeness to Rui Ming, but because of her identity, Shangguan Yun’ er hid behind Dong Xi to avoid Rui Ming’s gaze.
Tie Zhu also noticed that something was wrong with Rui Ming. Tie Zhu gave him a warning glare and said, “Today is the first time Junior Brother has brought Madam here. Let’s eat together. Big Brother will treat everyone.”
Dong Xi nodded. After everyone finished eating, they left.
Tie Zhu hugged Rui Ming and said, “Junior Brother Rui Ming, this Miss Shangguan is indeed devastatingly beautiful. You are still young, so it’s normal for you to be unable to extricate yourself. But now, this Miss Shangguan is our Junior… Brother’s wife. If you continue to interfere, you will inevitably become a laughing stock.”
Rui Ming lowered his head and his eyes were chaotic.
Tie Zhu was still talking about something when Rui Ming suddenly stood up and said, “Senior Brother, I want to go somewhere.”
Tie Zhu was stunned for a moment before saying, “Where are we going? If you want to snatch the bride, I won’t help you.”
Rui Ming shook his head and said, “I won’t snatch the bride. I don’t need your help either. Senior Brother, you can stay at the inn. Wait for Junior Sister to contact me. I’ll leave first.”
Tie Zhu’s reaction was slower, and Rui Ming had already walked out.
Tie Zhu immediately chased after him, only to see a crane flying into the sky.
Tie Zhu’s eyes widened.
He suddenly understood why Rui Ming said that his entire body was covered in fur…
Speed Wind Crane was very fast. Tie Zhu was a body cultivator, so he could not catch up at all. He ran along the street, and Rui Ming’s figure disappeared.
Tie Zhu was furious. He immediately took out his communication jade slip and sent a message to Dong Xi.
[Junior Sister, Junior Brother Rui Ming said that he was going somewhere, then he left me behind and ran away.]
Dong Xi sensed that there was a message in the communication jade slip. She noticed that Shangguan Yun’er had stopped and turned to look at the sky.
Shangguan Yun’er frowned, a trace of worry on her face.
“Husband, did you hear a crane’s cry?” Shangguan Yun’er asked.
Dong Xi looked up at the sky and shook her head, “I didn’t hear it.”
“Maybe it’s an illusion. Let’s go back,” Shangguan Yun’er said.
“Since you’ve already come out, why are you in a hurry to go back?” Dong Xi said with a smile. “Madam, don’t you want to walk around?”
Shangguan Yun’er’s eyes lit up. She said, “Really?”
“Of course. There’s a rouge shop not far away. Shall we go and take a look?” said Dong Xi.
Women would always understand women. Shangguan Yun’er was instantly overjoyed when she heard Dong Xi’s words.
“Alright, let’s go take a look.” Shangguan Yun’er nodded.
Ever since Dong Xi came to the cultivation world, she had never been to a rouge shop.
One must know that Dong Xi had lived for 18 years in her previous life, and her taste had long been fixed. When Shangguan Yun’er was trying colors, Dong Xi could give suggestions on colors and other aspects.
Along the way, Dong Xi even used the cleaning spell to remove the rouge on Shangguan Yun’er’s face so that she could continue to try the next one.
Shangguan Yun’er was holding two types of rouge and did not know which one to choose. Seeing Shangguan Yun’er so conflicted, Dong Xi went forward and took them all.
Under Shangguan Yun’er’s puzzled gaze, Dong Xi smiled and said, “Since Madam likes them, then buy them all back.”
Shangguan Yun’er was stunned for a moment before suddenly remembering that over the years, her father had given her a lot of spirit stones. However, Shangguan Yun’er had never come out, so these spirit stones had no use. Later on, Shangguan Yun’er had somewhat forgotten the use of spirit stones.
While Shangguan Yun’er was in a daze, Dong Xi had already paid the spirit stones and bought back the rouge that Shangguan Yun’er had tried on.
Little Yue put all of them into her storage bag and followed behind the two of them. She looked at the Young Miss’s happy face and then looked at the Young Master…
Suddenly, Little Yue felt that this Young Master seemed to be not bad. His height was not a problem either. Today was probably the happiest day of her life.
Not long after the two of them left, Dong Xi whispered a few words to Shangguan Yun’er before leaving alone.
Shangguan Yun’er stood still and watched Dong Xi walk to a vendor and buy a bunch of red peaches before handing it to Shangguan Yun’er.
Dong Xi said, “Madam, try it quickly. You have to eat it fresh. If you eat it later, the sugar on it will melt. It won’t be as delicious as it is now.”
