Moreover, the young master’s infatuation made him susceptible to influence.
Seeing his protective behavior, Gu Qingluan couldn’t help but suppress her laughter. “If you like it, 1’11 give you more next time we meet.”
“Sure, sure, I’ve got it in mind. Beautiful Sister, remember this,” even before their separation, Feng Yuanxi was eagerly anticipating their next encounter.
Gu Qingluan smiled and escorted them to the door, watching the carriage depart.
Inside the carriage, Feng Yuanxi held onto the wooden box tightly, reluctant to let go. Jing Feng couldn’t help but be curious about what kind of elixirs she had given him, wanting to open the box and see.
Feng Yuanxi glared at him cautiously. “This is a gift from Beautiful Sister, I won’t let you see.”
Jing Feng could only shake his head, amused and exasperated.
He had no intention of snatching it; the young master’s reaction was simply adorable.
It was just a few elixirs, after all.
With Feng Yuanxi refusing to show him, Jing Feng didn’t press further.
Upon returning to the palace, they encountered Feng Tianlan in the courtyard.
Feng Tianlan hesitated briefly; he thought his son would stubbornly stay at the Jun Residence. After all, the boy had a clear affection for that woman. Now that they were parting, they needed to spend more time together.
“Father!” Feng Yuanxi called out.
“Master!” Jing Feng greeted him respectfully.
Feng Tianlan noticed Feng Yuanxi hugging a wooden box and casually asked, “What are you holding?”
Feng Yuanxi clutched the box tighter, as if afraid it would be taken from him. He spoke in a tone of pride, “It’s a gift from Beautiful Sister!”
Feng Tianian’s eyebrow twitched. Why would he desire anything from that woman? What was there to boast about? What was there to be cautious of?
“If you have nothing else, Father, I’ll go back to my room.”
Feng Yuanxi was eager to retreat to his room and secretly examine the treasures in the wooden box.
Feng Tianlan could guess his intention and remained speechless.
“Wait a moment, let’s see what’s in the box.”
For the time being, he couldn’t discern any ill intentions from Gu Qingluan toward his son.
He believed one had to be careful and prudent when in unfamiliar or potentially risky situations.
Especially with women, one had to be extra vigilant.
She could have given him any other things, but why elixirs?
She better not gave him poison.
Feng Yuanxi held the wooden box tightly, his little face cautious. “This was given to me by Beautiful Sister. Dad, you wouldn’t want to take it, right?” “What use would I have for it? Let Jing Feng inspect it. If there’s no issue, then you can have it.”
“It’s a gift from Beautiful Sister, there won’t be any problems!”
“If there are no problems, why are you afraid? It’s just a brief inspection, and you won’t lose a single pill,” Feng Tianlan said calmly.
Seeing his father’s determined attitude, Feng Yuanxi could only agree, “You better keep your words and not snatch them from me!”
“Ha!”
Feng Tianlan sneered, expressing his disdain.
Jing Feng also found it amusing.
Did the young master really believe that everyone would be interested in the same things he was?
Furthermore, his master had seen countless treasures; why would he want to take something from Feng Yuanxi?
Feng Yuanxi cautiously opened the wooden box, revealing two small bottles—one black and one white.
The bottles were nestled in a groove lined with red velvet, appearing unremarkable.
Jing Feng picked up the white bottle absentmindedly.
A piece of paper was attached to the bottle, bearing the words “Arcane Spirit Pill”.
Seeing the words “Arcane Spirit Pill”, Jing Feng couldn’t help but chuckle.
The Arcane Spirit Pill was one of the most common types of elixirs, practically every alchemist knew how to make it. It was also one of the most commonly used pills among Arcane practitioners.
He thought Gu Qingluan had prepared something special, but it turned out to be the ordinary Arcane Spirit Pill.
Alas, the poor young master poured his heart and soul into others, giving away numerous treasures without a second thought, and in return, he received a bottle of Arcane Spirit Pills.
Jing Feng didn’t know how to console the young master..
