Chapter 327: Not Even Once (1/2)
After taking two steps, Pei Qingfeng seemed to recall something and turned back to face Bai Luochu, ”Don’t forget about your promise.”
Bai Luochu laughed... The usually aloof Pei Qingfeng is acting so childishly today!
Bai Luochu knew that if she didn’t promise Pei Qingfeng, she wasn’t going to hear the end of it. ”I will definitely come back safely. When I get back, I will report to you as soon as I can.”
Pei Qingfeng nodded with satisfaction and muttered softly, ”If anything happens to you, I will settle the score with Pei Rumo. Burning down the First Prince’s residence is the first thing I’ll do…”
Bai Luochu might not be able to hear what he said, but she heard Pei Rumo’s name. She became curious and asked, ”Pei Rumo? Why did you mention the First Prince?”
Pei Qingfeng opened his mouth and prepared to speak about his deal with Pei Rumo but his personal guard signaled him to stay silent in case he said anything wrong.
Pei Qingfeng quickly shut his mouth as he felt that his personal guard was right. Bai Luochu might even think that he was meddling in her affairs. He offered a simple explanation, ”Nothing much.” He then immediately left as though he was afraid she would follow up with another question.
Bai Luochu looked at Pei Qingfeng’s back view as she shook her head and laughed helplessly. I previously thought that Pei Qingfeng was the most proper and upright prince. It seems like I was wrong. All of them are weird.
After Pei Qingfeng left, Bai Luochu instructed Cai Ling, “Cai Ling, prepare a basin of clean water for me. I shall personally wash the armor to prevent anyone from getting hurt.”
Cai Ling knew that the dusty armor was a priceless treasure and she immediately did as she was told. By the time Cai Ling brought the water over, it was already late at night. Even though the moon was hanging high up in the night sky, Bai Luochu prepared to clean it before airing it through the night.
This was the first time Cai Ling saw such a unique style of cleaning armor.
Bai Luochu used her spiritual energy to form a ball of water before splashing it on the armor. After several repetitions, the armor became sparkling clean. The entire armor was in perfect condition and only water stains were left on the surface.
With its flawlessly smooth surface, water droplets dripped down the surface of the armor, forming a small puddle on the ground.
Bai Luochu glanced at the mess and sheepishly apologized, “I... forgot about this. I should have asked you to bring over an empty basin too.”
