nChapter 46: Giving the Betrothal Gifts

nLooking at Jun Yeyan’s bright smile, Bai Aoxue was inexplicably panicked. Perhaps the eyes of Jun Yeyan’s eyes were too bright to catch her off guard who walked in the dark.

nBai Aoxue didn’t expect that Jun Yeyan’s defenseless smile turned out to be so pure. Indeed, it was pure.

n

n

nThat was the innocence that Bai Aoxue has never had before. Now, Bai Aoxue actually saw it in Jun Yeyan’s eyes.

nBai Aoxue turned her head in a panic and moved Jun Yeyan out of her sight. She said fiercely: “I will kill them sooner or later if they dare to set me in trouble! You are nosy!”

nBai Aoxue thought her tone could make Jun Yeyan retreat, but she didn’t know that this voice was lack of confidence in Jun Yeyan’s ears.

nShe was obviously flustered and shy, while she still tried to be a poker face. Jun Yeyan thought Bai Aoxue was cute, but he also felt distressed.

n

n

nSuch a person who had a strong sense of self-protection encountered too many hardships. Her heart was the strongest and also the softest.

nJun Yeyan thought so in his heart. There was a gentleness hiding in his eyes that he has never discovered when he looked at Bai Aoxue.

nLightly opening his thin lips, Jun Yeyan said: “You are mine. Naturally I am in charge. Since you are still booked by me even if you’re not mine now, I’m not nosy.”

n

n

nJun Yeyan’s knavish and cunning words choked Bai Aoxue.

nBai Aoxue looked at Jun Yeyan who succeeded and said coldly: “Don’t be so full of everything. Plans will never catch up with changes!”

nJun Yeyan looked at Bai Aoxue whose thin lips were silent. The stubborn that belonged to Bai Aoxue was fully exposed, which didn’t compromise on anything and was also arrogant and nippy.

n“But you have promised to marry me, and there is no room for you to regret. Don’t forget that we are grasshoppers on the same tree now.” Jun Yeyan appreciated Bai Aoxue’s stubborn, while it didn’t mean that he would allow her to.

nBai Aoxue was the young eagle who wanted to flap her wings. She wanted to gallop and soar far away.

nIf he could, he was willing to become the force which helped her to grow up, while he could also be the resistance to break her wings!

n

n

nBai Aoxue listened to the words of Jun Yeyan and smiled with alacrity: “Are you afraid of death?”

nAfter listening to that confused question of Bai Aoxue, Jun Yeyan puzzled for a while and blankly looked at Bai Aoxue.

nAt the same time, he saw Bai Aoxue raise her hand to put those hairs beside the temple behind the ear. The corners of her mouth picked up a perfect arc. Those casual eyes were now filled with cruelty which was going to break out.

n“I am not afraid of death. If you want to threaten me with our cooperation, then you are wrong. I have said from the beginning that I only have this life. I will bet with you and I don’t care who will win!”

nBai Aoxue’s eyes were bright like stars. Those words that she spoke were full of anger just like her.

nJun Yeyan looked at Bai Aoxue as if he saw his old self who was obstinate and unruly, while he was indeed a cub that was wounded through and through.

nAnd Jun Yeyan also thoroughly understood the bottom line of Bai Aoxue—threat!

n

n

nYes, Bai Aoxue’s bottom line was threat. No matter who it was, once he threatened her, then the real Bai Aoxue would appear regardless of everything including death.

n“I’m also not afraid to die and I have never said that I want to gamble with lives. As long as you trust me, victory of the game must belong to us!” Jun Yeyan smile proudly.

nAfter a pause, Jun Yeyan said slowly: “Even if you lose, I will save your life. This is my promise to you.”

nLooking at Jun Yeyan, Bai Aoxue’s heart was slightly stunned. She always thought that a person like Jun Yeyan would do anything to achieve his purpose, but now he gave her such a promise.

n“We won’t lose!” She involuntarily blurted out those words. Bai Aoxue and Jun Yeyan almost looked at each other at the same time.

nBai Aoxue’s small face turned red. She looked at Jun Yeyan and stuttered: “I just don’t want my collaborators to die; otherwise I can’t get any benefit…”

nShe lowered her head during speaking. Perhaps even she herself felt that such an explanation was too pale and too unconvincing.

nThe breeze stroking, their flying hair entangled together. Jun Yeyan felt that such a scene was like a dream.

nInvoluntarily, Jun Yeyan’s raising hand slowly fell on Bai Aoxue’s small head which was lowered then gently caressed.

n“Don’t worry. We will live to the end, little prince.” His deep and hoarse voice made Bai Aoxue lost herself in a moment and let her not escape the hand of Jun Yeyan immediately.

n“Well, since you are fine, I need to go. I will pay you a visit tomorrow and send you the betrothal gifts!” Jun Yeyan took his hand back and said lightly.

nAfter finishing his words, he disappeared before Bai Aoxue looked up.

nBai Aoxue looked at the place where Jun Yeyan left in a trance.

n

n

n“Hum! How dare you to touch my head. I will cut your hand the next time I see you!” Bai Aoxue said harshly, while the red cheeks sold out her flustered mood and the efforts to create that fierce appearance.

nAfter finishing her words, Bai Aoxue immediately shut the window.

n“Miss, who are you talking to?” The voice of Hongxiu sounded from outside.

nWhen Bai Aoxue heard the voice of Hongxiu, she swept the slyness away and said indifferently: “You got it wrong. Did you prepare the hot water?”

nHongxiu looked around suspiciously and said: “Yes, I’m going to bring it in.”

nBai Aoxue got up and went to the table to sit down and wait for Hongxiu to come in.

nIn fact, Jun Yeyan did not leave after he disappeared. He just hided in the darkness, watching the childish side of Bai Aoxue.

nHis palm still had the remaining temperature left by that touch. Looking at that palm which touched Bai Aoxue’s small head, there was a warm stream that flowed over Jun Yeyan’s heart.

nJun Yeyan smiled faintly then turned and left.

nWhile Jun Yeyan was happy, he didn’t know that Nalan Youhong was still worried about the bride-price.

n“What a good Jun Yeyan. It’s you who will marry princess, while it’s me who lost money. Since this is the case, it is better for me to marry her!” Nalan Youhong vented his resentment to himself.

nHowever, he did not find that there was already a figure behind him.

nJun Yeyan listened to Nalan Youhong’s words and smiled: “I don’t know that someone even secretly thinks of my little princess.” After those words fell, Jun Yeyan slowly walked forward and looked at those boxes of gifts prepared by Nalan Youhong.

nNalan Youhong was scared to jump when he suddenly heard that sound. He hurriedly turned to look at Jun Yeyan and said: “Do you know that this time I spend half of my property in order to preparing bride-price for you!!”

nLooking at Nalan Youhong’s aching appearance, Jun Yeyan cannot help laughing.

n“Do you think that I don’t know how much property you have? Maybe you guys can’t figure out how much your Nalan Family has.” Jun Yeyan said faintly.

nNalan Youhong was speechless after listening to Jun Yeyan. Jun Yeyan was right. Even he could not tell how rich the Nalan family was.

n“Hey, look at them yourself. I’ve already prepared everything even including items that would be used at wedding. I am going to let the world remember the most splendid marriage in a thousand years!” Nalan Youhong looked at Jun Yeyan and pouted his mouth as a signal.

nWhen Jun Yeyan listened to Nalan Youhong’s words, he smiled and said: “You really are the richest man and extraordinarily generous!”

n“Hh, these things are naturally yours since my Nalan family submits to you. Besides, you’re making lot money with that underground title, aren’t you?” Nalan Youhong sniggered.

nJun Yeyan listened to Nalan Youhong’s words and smiled without doubt. He reached out and patted Nalan’s shoulder: “Well done. I will prepare for you if somebody takes you as a wife.”

nNalan Youhong was like a cat whose tail was stepped on when Jun Yeyan words came out. He stomped: “As a wife? You are wrong! I’m so handsome. There are numerous women who want to marry me. Why would I marry someone?”

nJun Yeyan did not take care of Nalan Youhong and went to those betrothal presents which occupied the whole room. Red silks, gold hairpins and firecrackers were all essential.

nHowever, the betrothal presents of Jun Yeyan were a little different from the general presents.

nSince he said that he would give Bai Aoxue the best, it must be the best.

nAnd Bai Aoxue was also worth the best in this world.

nThis was what Jun Yeyan silently spoke to himself in his heart. For whatever reason, he wanted to give Bai Aoxue the best.

nIt had nothing to do with compensation. He did so just because he wanted to.

n“Good job. Let everyone put on red clothes tomorrow. Lead my Hurricane out and also prepare a set of red for me. Don’t forget to bring the wolf that we tamed last time in Mobei. I believe my little princess will love it. Even if we just go to give betrothal gifts, I want to be the most unique one in the world!” Jun Yeyan looked at those boxes of gifts with satisfaction.

nOn the other side, Nalan Youhong listened to the words of Jun Yeyan and stunned: “Red? You wear red clothes? And also ride Hurricane? The most important thing is that wolf! Don’t you know the fierceness of that wolf? Who dares to touch it?!”

nJun Yeyan frowned slightly: “I thought that doing these little things is just a breeze according to your ability. Is this all my illusion?”

nJun Yeyan’s seemingly unintentional words made Nalan Youhong silent. If he replied yes, he would be looked down upon; if his answer was no, then he had to lead that wolf.

nAfter thinking for a while, Nalan glared at Jun Yeyan and said: “You are ruthless! When somebody takes me as a wife, you should also give me a wolf!”

n“Well? Wife?” Jun Yeyan raised up his eyebrows, looking at Nalan Youhong with entertainment.

nNalan Youhong also found out that he had made a mistake, while he swung his sleeve hardly and left angrily when he accepted the gaze of the Jun Yeyan.

nJun Yeyan looked at the view of Nalan Youhong’s back and smiled gloomily.

nAnd Bai Aoxue here obviously did not care about that Jun Yeyan was going to giving betrothal gifts. She slept after taking a bath.

nThe next morning, Nalan Youhong and his people were waiting at the gate of 5th prince’s mansion. The red was immense and extremely dazzling.

nEven the claret steed in front of them had a red saddle and a bright red flower balls on its head.

n“Why should I wear red too?!” Nalan Youhong complained of it.

nThe people around him all chose to be silent after seeing him. They all refused to answer such a meaningless question.

n“Because you are also a member of the company.” The deep male voice sounded from the mansion.

nEveryone looked at the gate when they heard that sound.

nThey saw a tall and slender figure came against the light. The red robe waved, and the ink hair rose high, swaying an arc as he walked. The white jade mask was worn as always while it did not affect his momentum at all.

nThe evil and arrogant eyes swept the crowd, and his thin lips picked up the prefect arc. Who could associate such a man with the ugly prince?

n
