Chapter 197: Seeking Comfort

If possible, he would love to give the best things on the entire street, no, in the whole Heavenly Capital City to Beautiful Sister.
Unfortunately, time was limited, and he couldn’t explore all of it.
Moreover, the Heavenly Capital was a small place after all, incomparable to the Holy Heaven Dynasty; it was difficult to find something good.
He didn’t want to give just anything to Beautiful Sister.
She deserved the best!
Luckily, Beautiful Sister was going to the Qiankun Academy. He would prepare the gifts and send them to the Qiankun Academy for her.
Hearing Feng Yuanxi muttering to himself, Jing Feng’s lips twitched.
If it weren’t for the age gap between his Young Master and Miss Gu, he would have suspected that Young Master had fallen in love with Miss Gu!
The way he was behaving, why did it feel so much like he was trying to court someone?
If only his master had such intentions.
Regrettably, his master was advancing in age and still unmarried.
Due to the excessive number of gifts Yuanxi had prepared, one carriage couldn’t hold them all. Eventually, two carriages were needed to accommodate everything.
Jing Feng personally escorted him to the Jun Residence.
Upon being informed by the household servants that Little Yuanxi had arrived, Gu Qingluan couldn’t help but feel perplexed—
Didn’t they just part ways?
Could it be that Yuanxi got scolded by his father and had come to her for comfort?
She ordered the servants to let him in, then walked with curiosity towards the front courtyard.
In the front courtyard, Feng Yuanxi directed the servants to unload the boxes from the carriage.
The muscular guards struggled as they carried the boxes in pairs.
Jing Feng silently remarked: Look, it’s not that I lack exercise, its just that this box is really heavy!
“Yuanxi! What are you doing here?”
This was the scene Gu Qingluan witnessed as she arrived, prompting her to ask curiously.
“Beautiful Sister!” Feng Yuanxi’s eyes brightened when he saw her. He rushed to her side.
Then he remembered her question earlier and answered crisply, “These are a few gifts I’ve prepared for you and Xiaonan. 1 hope you both like them.”
Glancing at the boxes still being moved into the courtyard, Gu Qingluan asked hesitantly, “Are you sure this is just a few?”
“Yeah!” Phoenix Yuanxi nodded.
Compared to their family’s treasure trove, these dozen or so boxes were indeed quite few.
Upon returning to the Holy Heaven Dynasty, he could go to the treasure trove and pick out some good items to give to Beautiful Sister.
Unaware of his son’s thoughts, Feng Tianlan was waiting for Feng Yuanxi to return to the palace. If Feng Tianlan knew, not only had his son’s heart strayed to another woman, but he was also considering taking away his treasure trove. He would surely have mixed feelings about it.
“What’s inside all of these? May I take a look?”
Gu Qingluan noticed the guards seemed to be struggling with the boxes and became curious about their contents.
Feng Yuanxi nodded his little head, “Of course! These are for Beautiful Sister. Whatever you want to do with them is fine.”
Gu Qingluan walked up to the nearest wooden box and opened it.
Dazzling light almost blinded her.
She instinctively closed her eyes and took a moment before slowly opening them again.
The box was filled with gemstones.
These gemstones sparkled brilliantly, crystal clear and radiant.
But most importantly—
These weren’t ordinary gemstones; they were rare ores imbued with spiritual energy!
“Gasp! Mithril, Adamantine Gold, Star Iron, Red Heart Jade, Azure Scale Crystal… all rare ores!” one of the guards couldn’t help but exclaim.
Gu Qingluan was stunned.
These rare ores were even more valuable than gold. Taking mithril for example, a fist-sized piece of mithril was worth a thousand taels of gold..
