Was this an Accident

Bai Piaopiao was creeped out by Yi Feng's staring eyes. Her pretty face flushed red at times.

"Hmm?" Yi Feng asked again.

"Ah..."

"Hehe, this is..."

"Master Yi, I..."

"This is, hehe, it seems to be..."

Bai Piaopiao was at a loss for words, mumbling and hesitating, unable to explain for a long time.

"Miss, I heard Young Master Yi has returned, right?"

At this moment, Mao Mao's voice came from outside, then she walked in.

Seeing Yi Feng was really there, her eyes lit up and she excitedly shouted, "Oh my! Young Master Yi, you're really back, that's so great!"

Seeing Mao Mao suddenly rush in, Bai Piaopiao's beautiful eyes lit up.

It was as if she saw a savior. She hurriedly said, "Oh my! Young Master Yi, I'm really sorry, after you left, this damned maid Mao Mao slept in your bed. This nightgown must have been left by her too."

As she spoke, Bai Piaopiao snatched the black nightgown and stuffed it into Mao Mao's hands.

"Ah?"

Holding the nightgown suddenly shoved at her, Mao Mao was shocked for a moment, opened her little mouth and shouted, "Miss, how can you talk nonsense? How could this possibly be a nightgown I left behind? Clearly it was..."

However, before she could finish speaking, Bai Piaopiao's jade palm landed on her chest and sent Mao Mao flying out.

"Hmm?"

"Where's Mao Mao?"

Yi Feng, who had just turned his head, turned it back and found Mao Mao suddenly gone. His voice was filled with confusion.

"Uh, hehe, she ran away already."

Bai Piaopiao awkwardly explained, "She was probably too ashamed to face you, so she left like that."

"I see."

Yi Feng helplessly shook his head and continued feeling around the bed.

Finally.

His eyes lit up.

"Found it."

He found a heavy money pouch under the bed.

"Congratulations to the young master on recovering his lost item."

Seeing this, Bai Piaopiao finally breathed a sigh of relief. If Yi Feng kept searching the bed, she was really afraid he would find something else she left behind.

Soon after, the two slowly walked to the door.

"Young Master is leaving so soon?" Bai Piaopiao asked somewhat disappointedly.

"Yes, I came back just to find this money pouch. Looking for it wasted quite some time already, so I have to hurry on my journey now." Yi Feng weighed the money pouch in his hand and said.

"I see."

Bai Piaopiao nodded slightly.

She understood that no matter what, they would part ways again. It was only a matter of time.

"Farewell."

Yi Feng slowly walked down the mountain.

"Oh right."

Bai Piaopiao suddenly called out.

"Hmm?"

Yi Feng paused his steps.

"Could the young master give me a gift?"

"A gift?"

"Yes, anything will do!"

Bai Piaopiao looked at Yi Feng earnestly and spoke solemnly.

This parting was probably their last time seeing each other. So she hoped to keep something of Yi Feng's.

Perhaps many years later when she took out this item, she could still think back to this interesting ordinary man she met in these small mountain ranges.

"Alright."

"Just don't despise it."

Yi Feng also recalled the red bead he had picked up not long ago. He casually took it out from his sleeve and handed it to Bai Piaopiao.

"What a beautiful bead."

Bai Piaopiao received it lovingly, playing with it for a long time before putting it away, and said, "I also want to give the young master a gift. Just say what you want, as long as I have it!"

"That's too courteous. I'm not lacking anything for now, so thank you, miss." Yi Feng politely declined.

"No, you must take something."

Bai Piaopiao insisted resolutely.

"This doesn't seem right?"

Yi Feng scratched his nose awkwardly.

Bai Piaopiao just looked at him motionless.

Seeing this, Yi Feng helplessly shook his head. He had never seen someone so insistent on giving a gift.

To be honest, he really didn't want anything from Bai Piaopiao. Not only had he imposed on her residence multiple times, how could he take gifts from her?

But seeing Bai Piaopiao's insistence, Yi Feng was out of options. He had no choice but to think about what gift to ask for.

Just when he was worrying, he happened to see the wind chime hanging above the door behind Bai Piaopiao.

"Why don't you give me that wind chime then?"

Yi Feng laughed. This wind chime wasn't a valuable item, and it would be easy for him to keep, perfect in every way.

Without waiting for Bai Piaopiao's reply, Yi Feng walked over and took down the wind chime, putting it in his bag.

"Alright, I hope the young master will keep it well."

Seeing Yi Feng only wanted the wind chime, Bai Piaopiao couldn't say much. She just reminded Yi Feng.

"Don't worry, miss! I will take good care of it!"

"Farewell."

After saluting Bai Piaopiao with clasped hands, Yi Feng slowly walked down the mountain.

"Hopefully when the young master sees this wind chime in the future, he can still remember my, Bai Piaopiao's, existence."

Watching Yi Feng's departing figure, Bai Piaopiao couldn't help but murmur.

"What the hell is going on?"

Yun Lan sat on a grass mound, full of gloom, "Why do the mystic formations we set up keep failing on this brat?"

"Yeah, it's really weird and uncanny. This brat is clearly just an ordinary man."

"But I just went down the mountain to catch a little demon beast to test it, and our mystic formations worked!"

His subordinates all chimed in agreement.

Their expressions were more gloomy than the last.

"Hmm?"

"Did you close the formation just now?"

Yun Lan looked outside, then suddenly asked the previous subordinate.

"I didn't!"

The subordinate replied.

Yun Lan looked at the others.

The rest all shook their heads.

"None of you?"

"Then how did the formation shut down?"

Yun Lan couldn't help but ask.

Right after asking, he had a bad premonition. His eyeballs stared wide as he jumped up and rushed to the door.

The other subordinates also reacted quickly and followed along.

In the blink of an eye, they rushed to the front gate and looked up at the door top simultaneously.

At this look, Yun Lan nearly spit blood from rage.

"Where's the wind chime?"

Yun Lan roared loudly.

"Hmm?"

The distracted Bai Piaopiao standing there heard the sound and looked back. Seeing the about-to-explode Yun Lan, she gently asked, "Protector Yun, what's the matter?"

"Miss Bai, I'm asking you, where's the wind chime that was hanging here?" Yun Lan pointed at the door top, glaring with bulging eyeballs as he asked tremblingly.

"Oh, that one? It was taken by Young Master Yi," Bai Piaopiao softly replied.

Hearing this, Yun Lan shuddered instantly, revealing a sinister expression. He said word for word, "Taken...away...?"

"Yes!"

Bai Piaopiao nodded solemnly.

Yun Lan spat out a mouthful of old blood. His aura surged and his hair stood on end in that moment.

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

"F*cking son of a b*tch, you little b*stard, I'll wipe out your ancestors eighteen generations! I'll kill you, skin you alive, and tear out your tendons!"

Face flushed red, eyeballs about to pop out, Yun Lan was like a raging beast. He stomped his feet and charged down the mountain.

Fortunately, his subordinates reacted quickly and rushed after Yun Lan, tackling him to the ground.

"Calm your anger, sir!"

The subordinates pressed down on Yun Lan and shouted.

"Calm my *ss!"

Yun Lan flung them off with a wave of his arm.

The subordinates tumbled on the ground, then pounced at Yun Lan again.

"Think of the big picture, sir!"

"Yes, you must stay strong, sir!"

"If you really kill that brat, Miss Bai will surely be upset. It may affect our cooperation!"

Bai Piaopiao was also frightened by Yun Lan's state. She hurriedly walked over and worriedly asked, "Protector Yun, what's going on with you?"

"What's going on with me, you ask?"

Yun Lan howled while pinned to the ground, "That f*cking b*stard destroyed my mystic eye yet again!"

Hearing this, Bai Piaopiao's beautiful eyes blinked.

She stood there awkwardly at a loss for words.

"Uh..."

"Although I really sympathize with Protector Yun, this also seems to be an accident..."

Bai Piaopiao awkwardly explained with an embarrassed smile.
