The Man’s Gaze Assessed Her

“Eldest Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother, I only asked Fourth Brother to bring me to hunt a few days ago because I was too bored. Moreover, the tiger had also been shot to death by Lin Xingjian…”

Bai Jingyuan narrowed his eyes and looked at her. “That’s not an excuse to put you in danger. A few days ago, you fell into the water and he was still out playing fighting crickets. I think we should throw him into the woodshed and starve for a few days?”

Bai Mohuai nodded. “How about forfeiting your allowance? Don’t even think about getting a single cent from me this year.”

Bai Tanshen glanced at him, “I’ll also give you 20 strokes. I’ll do it right now.”

Bai Jinyan’s face turned green. “Eldest Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother, do you have to be so ruthless…”

The men shot daggers at him.

Bai Jinyan: “…”

“Fine, pretend I didn’t say anything.”

“Fourth Brother didn’t do it on purpose, and that’s…”

“That’s enough, Sister. Ignore him. Let’s go eat pine cake. Don’t you like it? I’ll make it for you personally.”

“Why are you still wearing last year’s materials? After dinner, come to Second Brother’s shop to choose. Recently, a batch of embroidery from Suzhou arrived. I have kept it specially for you.”

“Eldest Brother brought you some foreign toys. Take a look and see if you like them. If you like them, I’ll bring more for you next time.”

Third Brother was taciturn, but his gaze swept all over Bai Xianyu immediately. After confirming that she was unharmed, he followed them into the backyard.

…

As the night deepened, Bai Xianyu quietly walked into the kitchen, but she did not find anything edible. If she started the stove, she might be discovered by the chef.

Bai Xianyu did not hesitate. She took a few silver ingots and skillfully climbed over the wall to buy some food for Fourth Brother. She remembered that Fourth Brother liked to eat pastries from the Drunken Fragrance Restaurant the most. The place was bustling with activity now, so no one would know if she went out quietly.

The Great Kui did not have a curfew. At night, the Drunken Fragrance Restaurant was the most busy. The shouts of the small-stall hawkers could be heard incessantly. There were craftsmen who performed acrobatics, as well as exotic girls from Persia dancing. There were also countless rare treasures.

It had been a long time since Bai Xianyu had seen such a scene. She could not help but stop for a while. When she turned around, her gaze met a deep gaze on the railing upstairs.

She subconsciously took a step back.

Xie Xingyun, who was wearing a high ponytail, was leaning against the railing. There was a bottle of white jade wine beside him. His half-closed eyes were scrutinizing her very slowly inch by inch.

It was Bai Xianyu again.

After his rebirth, it was as if there was a stone in his heart. When he saw her, it would become a little heavier.

Bai Xianyu was a famous beauty in the Great Kui. She had been lively and active since she was young. In addition, everyone in the court knew that her brothers doted on her, so many young people in the capital recognized her.

The young men from the Drunken Fragrance Restaurant looked at her.

“Look, it’s Fifth Miss Bai!”

“Who is Fifth Miss Bai?” asked a merchant who had just come into the capital.

“She’s the first daughter of the General’s Manor. I’m afraid there’s no other beauty in the entire Great Kui who can compare to this moon fairy.”

“Her family background is equally prominent. Eldest Brother Bai Tanshen was 17 years old when he had outstanding achievements, causing the enemy to turn pale at the mention of him. He’s only 22 years old now, but he’s also the youngest young general in the court!”

“Second Brother is the number one merchant in the capital. He’s prosperous and rich. He has countless treasures and beauties.”

“Third Brother is only 19 years old, but he’s already the Emperor’s trusted aide. He holds multiple positions. I’m afraid he’ll become the leader of the officials soon.”

“The world sighs. Back then, when Old General Bai died in battle with his wife, who died in love, he did not expect these little ones who were surrounded by wolves, tigers, and leopards would be able to reach this stage.”
