Feng Tianlan raised her hands and looked at her slender fingers, then shook her head gently. “No, I don’t.” She knew how to use a knife or a sword, but she had never used an embroidery needle before.
In her previous life, when she was still together with Jiang Ying, she had never thought of giving him a gift. Therefore, she had never thought about embroidery.
Mei’er gave her a contemptuous smile. “Why not give yourself to him? That would be the best gift.”
Feng Tianlan stared at her, then said in a serious tone, “Bad idea. Mobai and I aren’t married yet. Besides, I am a human. How can I give myself out as a present? If a man were to have such a request before marriage, that kind of man is not worthy of you. As a woman, we offer our body so easily as well…”
As she was talking, she realized Mei’er was looking down without saying a word. She then stopped talking as well. “Mei’er?”
“Actually, if a man likes you, everything you give him will be a treasure to him.” If he didn’t like you, he wouldn’t even look at you.
Feng Tianlan looked at Mei’er, who looked enchanting. It seemed like she was hiding something behind those beautiful eyes of hers. “Mei’er, you…”
“Hum?” Mei’er raised her head and smiled. “Although it was depressing, it was better to find out as soon as possible. Otherwise, I would have ended up in a pile of dirt. I just can’t get over it yet.”
She spent her whole life loving one person, but her heart was cruelly broken by that person. How could she move on so quickly? That pain would be with her for the rest of her life.
“Maybe,” Feng Tianlan said with sympathy when she thought about her previous life.
“I can see that the Demon King’s love for you is true. The most fortunate thing that can ever happen to a person is to meet the correct partner. Therefore, he will like whatever you give him,” Mei’er said.
Feng Tianlan looked at Mei’er while smiling. She didn’t say any words of comfort. However, she was not used to seeing her so well-behaved.
After a while, Feng Tianlan returned to Si Feng Pavilion. When she saw Azurite, who was busy with her chores, she asked abruptly, “Azurite, what is the best gift for a man?”
“Huh?” Azurite was stunned. She then shook her head and said, “I don’t know.”
Feng Tianlan replied with an ‘oh,’ and stopped asking any more questions. She just stood by the window and worried about what to give him.
Late at night, Si Mobai had returned after a busy day. After taking a shower, he laid down on the bed and wrapped his arms around Feng Tianlan. He felt as though all the exhaustion after a busy day had disappeared completely at that moment.
As long as Lan’er was around, he wouldn’t even feel tired if the whole world were to collapse, and he had to support it himself.
Feng Tianlan adjusted herself into a suitable position in his arms. “Mobai, I want to form a Mercenary Regiment in Lin’an City.”
“Alright. I will send some people from Bailan Alliance over and order someone to choose a location,” he replied.
Feng Tianlan opened her eyes and looked at him. “No need. I will do it myself. Don’t secretly put someone in it.”
The Holy Pill City in Guiyuan Continent was filled with people from the Demon Palace.
When Si Mobai lowered his head and saw the serious look on her face, he thought for a moment. He then nodded. “Alright.”
He needed to let Lan’er grow. There were some things that he should entrust her with and trust that she could do it. Besides, she was going to become his princess consort. He might need her to take over Bailan Alliance one day. Therefore, he should just leave it to her.
Feng Tianlan wanted to ask him what he liked. However, after thinking about it, she realized that it wouldn’t be a surprise anymore if she asked. Therefore, she decided to wait and watch him more. She would decide what to get him when she was sure about what he liked.
The next day, Si Mobai woke up early to make breakfast for Feng Tianlan before waking her up. After they had breakfast, they went shopping in Lin’an City, hand-in-hand.
However, the moment they appeared on the streets, everyone was shocked!
The Demon King, who would usually never get close to a girl, was actually holding a woman’s hand on the streets!
