The Tempestuous Consort - Wilfully Pampered by the Beastly Highness - Chapter 797

Chapter 797: Tianlan and Mobai Both Exchange Tokens of Love

Hearing this, Shi Yiqing could no longer watch the show from the side. He quickly stepped forward and said, “Demon King, can you please let Lu’er go…?”

Before he could finish his words, he was struck by Si Mobai’s extremely icy gaze, causing him to fall silent.

“My Princess Consort was stranded in the Shi Family’s Secret Realm and almost locked up in it. I have not settled this score with you. And now you want me to let her go?” Si Mobai gave a cold chuckle and said, “I can let her go. All the lives in the Shi Family and Chen Family in return for her safety alone.”

Shi Yiqing was frozen by the cold words and shivered all over. He wiped the sweat on his forehead and said, “Demon King, do as you wish.”

It was not worth exchanging all the lives of the two families for Lu’er’s.

Si Mobai no longer looked at them. He went from hugging Feng Tianlan’s waist to locking hands with her. He said, “If you like the concentric knot, you can just buy one. Why did you have to make one personally?”

Feng Tianlan took the somewhat crooked concentric knot from her arms and handed it over to Mobai. She smiled shyly and said, “Two lovers join and belong to each other.”

“For me?” Si Mobai looked at the not-so-pretty looking concentric knot and reached out to take it. He lightly ran his fingers over it. Because of what had just happened, his cold face instantly melted at that moment to become gentle as water. He said, “Two lovers join and belong to each other.”

“Do you like it?” Feng Tianlan’s eyes lit up as she looked at him with anticipation.

Si Mobai nodded and then hung it around his waist. He said, “I like it.”

“I wanted it to hang on your sword.” Feng Tianlan saw that, with him wearing all white and then with a red concentric knot suddenly at his waist, it was both too conspicuous and ugly.

Si Mobai lowered his head to take a look. He said, full of pride, “I want to hang it here. Everyone can see it. If anyone asks, I’ll just say that Lan’er gave it to me.”

“But it’s a little ugly,” Feng Tianlan said as she looked at it, feeling a little awkward.

Si Mobai shot a glance at the peddler and slightly raised his voice as he asked, “Is it ugly?”

“It looks so nice. It’s the best-looking concentric knot,” the peddler said, hurrying to praise it.

Si Mobai gave Feng Tianlan a look and said, “It looks good.”

“Let’s go.” Feng Tianlan smiled lightly. It only mattered that Mobai liked it. Anyway, it was her first time braiding it, so its significance was more important.

“Wait a moment.” Si Mobai took out an embroidered handkerchief from inside his sleeve and then opened it to take out a white jade hairpin. He said, “We had a meeting of the minds. We both wanted to give gifts at the same time.”

Feng Tianlan looked at the hairpin. It was a superior Hetian Jade. A lifelike white orchid was carved on top. Her vision was so sharp that she could even see that the word ‘Bailan’ was engraved on it. The carving workmanship was exceptionally good.

“Mobai, did you carve it yourself?” Feng Tianlan guessed.

Si Mobai made a gentle sound of acknowledgment. He held the white jade hairpin and gently put it on her head for her. He saw that while she wore it, it made her appear even brighter and more beautiful. He said, “Lan’er looks really good.”

He had gone to carve the white jade hairpin earlier. So, he took a little longer. Originally, he had planned to give it to her when they went back. But since she had given him the concentric knot, he decided he could also give this to her now.

Come to think of it, they really did have a meeting of minds. They both had thought of personally making gifts to give to each other at the same time.

“Let’s go.” Noticing the people around them, watching them full of envy, Feng Tianlan was a little shy.

Si Mobai looked down to glance at the concentric knot on his waist and then up at the white jade hairpin on her head. He smiled and said, “Lan’er, we have exchanged true tokens of love.”

Feng Tianlan nodded slightly and made a light sound. The concentric knot held the meaning of two lovers joined and belonging to each other, while the hairpin possessed the meaning of a rightful wife.

Si Mobai and Feng Tianlan disappeared into the crowd. And from a teahouse not far away, a person watched the scene and then vanished from the window with a cold laugh.
