Chapter 818: Making Friends
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was actually Wen Lancheng’s first time meeting Xie Qiao. He had only heard of her before.
Even if he wanted to ask for her hand in marriage, he did not have the time to do so.
It was impossible for him to not have any regrets.
However, he was not someone who could not let go.
Young Lady Xie was now the future Princess Consort, and he was her god-brother. As her god-brother, he definitely could not have any inappropriate thoughts. Moreover, the clan had already chosen a good match for him, so the regrets he had earlier were long gone.
It was only because he had always been curious about Young Lady Xie, that at this moment, he could not help but take another look at her.
“Yingying greets Sister Xie, and…” Feng Yingying took another curious look at Yu Xian, not knowing who it was.
Could he be the Xie family’s first young master that Brother Wen had mentioned?
It did not seem like it, because over the past few days, she had heard from the servants that the Xie family’s first young master was fierce, and he had a frightening demeanour.
Meanwhile, this young master in front of her was quite good-looking. He was even a little feminine and somewhat androgynous.
“My name is Yu Xian, and I’m this family’s martial arts master.” Yu Xian was very straightforward and smiled at Feng Yingying with an especially bright smile. However, she was wearing men’s clothes after all, so she looked a little lecherous.
Feng Yingying’s face was flushed and she felt a little uneasy. Yu Xian suddenly thought of the clothes she was wearing and sighed. “Hey, don’t be afraid. I’m a woman. I… wear these clothes because it’s convenient.”
When she said that, Feng Yingying heaved a sigh of relief. “Greetings, Sister Yu.”
Seeing her bow, Yu Xian felt helpless and returned the bow awkwardly.
“I still have something important to do…” Wen Lancheng glanced at Feng Yingying, “You can tour around the city with Young Lady Xie and Master Yu. In the evening, I’ll send someone to pick you up. Also… It must be tiring for Eldest Sister and Master Yu today. All the expenses for today will be taken care of by me. If Eldest Sister likes anything nice, feel free to buy it. Don’t worry. It will be considered a gift from your brother.”
Xie Qiao finally understood why Xie Niushan kept bragging about Wen Lancheng.
This person… was simply doing his utmost to be polite.
He spoke in a neither hurried nor slow manner. His expression was genial. When she took a glance at him, one word came to her,–elegance.
“Thank you, God-brother.” He was being nice, so Xie Qiao accepted it politely.
Only then did Wen Lancheng feel at ease to leave. He did not need to go to Hanlin Academy today, but he had an appointment with the Crown Prince, Xie Pinggang, and the others. He still had other matters to attend to.
He left in a hurry.
Xie Qiao thought for a moment, then she got someone to prepare a carriage. She was going to take Feng Yingying out for a stroll.
Yu Xian naturally followed along.
The three of them went together to the most bustling street in the capital. Yu Xian also changed into a woman’s outfit.
Yu Xian’s appearance could not be considered extremely beautiful, but it was unforgettable. She had a heroic demeanour in her, and her pair of phoenix-like eyes were especially cold and spirited. She had a valiant bearing that was simply incomparable to that of a man!
“It’s been a while since I’ve worn such exquisite clothes. It’s really awkward. It’s better to be a man. I don’t have to worry about walking. Unlike now, where I always feel like my left foot is tied to my right foot.” Most of the time, they traveled by carriage, but on the street, it was better to walk.
There were many people on the street, and the carriages were stuck in the traffic.
“Left foot tying your right foot…” Xie Qiao lowered her head and looked at the ghoul tying a rope around Yu Xian’s ankle, feeling a little helpless.
There were too many mischievous ghouls on the street, so…
Yu Xian thought she could not walk, but that there was actually a ghoul playing a trick on her.
However, it was very common.
For instance…
Xie Qiao glanced at a little girl not far away who could not help but sneeze.. In front of her was a ghoul with a feather in his hand, scratching her nose…
