93 Surprise

“Let me do it,” Chu Yi said as he stood up and walked towards Gu Yanfei.

Gu Yanfei: “…”

Gu Yanfei was usually not that obedient, but now, her attention was attracted by the jade hairpin in Chu Yi’s hand.

It was a white jade hairpin, and only one end was as red as blood. The craftsman had cleverly carved it into two plum blossoms. One was half open, half waiting, and the other had bloomed beautifully with clearly layered petals.

Gu Yanfei’s eyes lit up and she obediently sat there without moving, letting Chu Yi tie her hair personally.

He was very skilled at tying her hair. His slender fingers were nimble and agile. In a few moves, he tied Gu Yanfei’s thick black hair into a bun and only used the jade hairpin to stabilize it.

Gu Yanfei touched her bun and praised sincerely, “You’re really amazing!”

She would not be able to tie her hair so beautifully with a jade hairpin.

Her two slender fingers went from her bun to the jade hairpin, lingering.

Overjoyed, she repeatedly touched the jade hairpin and felt the shape of the plum blossom with her fingertips. Her smile was like a flower, happy and carefree.

This plum blossom jade hairpin was not an ordinary item.

Ever since she obtained the phoenix-patterned jade pendant, Gu Yanfei had realized something.

Although the spiritual energy in this small world was thin now and almost nonexistent, thousands or even tens of thousands of years ago, there should have been spiritual energy here. That was why jade stones with spiritual energy were nurtured and carved into jade pendants by craftsmen.

It was obvious that the phoenix-patterned jade pendant was not the only spiritual item in this small world.

Gu Yanfei originally wanted to take her time to look around, but she did not expect Chu Yi to give her such a surprise today.

“This is for me, right?” she asked, worried.

Chu Yi chuckled. “This is a return gift.”

Stunned, Gu Yanfei immediately recalled the red plum she had given Chu Yi last time and smiled.

She had always been unlucky, but the interesting thing was that when she met Chu Yi, her luck would become very good.

It had been like this in her previous life, and it was still the same in this life.

Thinking of this, Gu Yanfei’s smile became even brighter, showing her joy generously. “I like it very much!”

Of course she liked it. She liked it very much!

This jade hairpin was good stuff. Although the spiritual energy in the jade hairpin could not be absorbed and could not compare to the phoenix-patterned jade pendant, as long as one wore this hairpin all year round, they could nourish their divine sense.

Gu Yanfei did not expect spiritual objects like the phoenix-patterned jade pendant to be very common. Otherwise, this small world would not be so lacking in spiritual energy.

“I’m glad you like it.” Chu Yi raised his hand and gently helped her hold the plum blossom jade hairpin. There was an indescribable nostalgia in his gentle smile.

Gu Yanfei happily poured wine for Chu Yi.

Chu Yi sat back down and suddenly looked through the window of the booth at the lobby on the first floor. Then he gestured for Gu Yanfei to look down.

Gu Yanfei put down the wine pot and followed his gaze.

A tall and handsome young man entered the lobby on the first floor, wearing a sapphire blue embroidered robe with auspicious clouds on it and a black jade brocade belt around his waist. He was tall and mighty, with the sharpness of a martial artist.

“This is Murong Yong,” Chu Yi said.

Gu Yanfei scanned Murong Yong from head to toe.

Ever since she went to Jiahui Garden to put on makeup for Gu Yunzhen a few days ago and realized that her luck had been plundered by Gu Yunrong, Gu Yanfei had been a little worried.

Later, Gu Yanfei specially instructed Juan Bi to ask around. Gu Yunzhen had indeed been unlucky since she was young. Besides what the Third Madam had said, there were countless examples of her bad luck.

For example, this year, in February, when Gu Yunzhen, Gu Yunrong, and the other sisters were visiting Madam Wang’s sister’s house, Gu Yunzhen was accidentally hit in the head with a polo ball.

In June, she was rowing a boat in the small lake in the Marquis Mansion when the bottom of the small boat suddenly leaked. She did not know how to swim and almost drowned…

In August…

Gu Yanfei kept thinking about her previous life.

In her previous life, Gu Yunrong’s disfigurement and the misery of the rest of her life should also be because of her bad luck.

Gu Yanfei had no idea for a moment. Thinking that Gu Yunzhen’s wedding was imminent, she asked Chu Yi to find out about Gu Yunzhen’s fiancé, Murong Yong.

This morning, she received a letter from Chu Yi asking her to come to Tianyin Pavilion.

Gu Yanfei stared deeply at Murong Yong’s face.

The lines of the young man’s face were angular. He had thick eyebrows, big eyes, an aquiline nose, and thin lips, forming a handsome and masculine face.

Gu Yanfei’s gaze darted to his aquiline nose and she frowned slightly.

His nose was like an eagle’s beak, pecking at one’s heart.

Chu Yi said in a low voice, “Murong Yong works in the 3,000-man battalion. He was originally a sixth-grade knight bachelor. Last month, because he went to Qingzhou to eliminate bandits, he made a big contribution. He was just transferred to the Divine Arms Battalion and was promoted to a fifth-grade Valiant Cavalry Captain.”

Murong Yong was only a fifth-grade general and could not be considered a big shot in the imperial court. He did not even have the right to attend the morning court. If Gu Yanfei had not asked, Chu Yi would not have bothered to pay attention.

His slender fingers slowly twirled the wine glass. After taking a sip of the wine, he continued, “Ever since Yao Jiaban came to the capital, he has been coming to Tianyin Pavilion almost every day to support a celebrity.”

Chu Yi’s expression and tone were calm, as if he was used to it or did not care.

After Murong Yong entered the hall below, he first looked at the stage with a burning gaze. Seeing that there was only a young performer and another older performer on the stage, he looked away with disinterest.

The waiter of Tianyin Pavilion led Murong Yong respectfully towards the stairs. As they spoke, they were both enthusiastic and familiar. It was obvious that they often entertained Murong Yong.

“Who is he supporting?” Gu Yanfei could not help but ask.

She thought of the devastatingly beautiful girl just now.
