Chapter 206: Chapter 206: Feel Like They Were Eating The Clay

Liu Longwei did not know that Bai Xifeng would be having lunch with her father and brother. When he found out about that, he was facing Bai Xiang and Bai Tingfeng who looked at him like they wanted to beat him up.

"Xixi, why is he together with you?" Bai Tingfeng asked.

Even though Bai Xiang did not say anything about this, he always had the same question in his mind.

"Well, he comes to join our lunch." Bai Xifeng said.

"That is not what I want to know." Bai Tingfeng said.

"He recognized me as his fiance." Bai Xifeng said.

"He recognizes you?" Bai Tingfeng was quite surprised.

"Of course, I know her. She is my fiance." Liu Longwei grinned. He seemed to show off.

Bai Tingfeng felt annoyed to see Liu Longwei.

"Let’s eat." Bai Xiang said.

They started to eat. Liu Longwei took a piece of chicken and put it in Bai Xifeng’s bowl.

"Eat this, Fengfeng." Liu Longwei said.

Bai Xifeng nodded and enjoyed the food. Seeing Bai Xifeng did not mind, Liu Longwei started to put the food into Bai Xifeng’s bowl.

Bai Xiang and Bai Tingfeng watched the interaction.

"Hey, stop putting food into Xixi’s bowl. You should eat too." Bai Tingfeng said in an annoyed tone.

Bai Xifeng just realized that Liu Longwei was busy putting the food into her bowl. When did he eat? She turned to Liu Longwei.

"You should eat too. I will take the food that I want by myself." Bai Xifeng said.

"You hate that I am doing that?" Liu Longwei pouted.

"What? Of course not! But you don’t have to do that. Here, eat this." Bai Xifeng took the dish and put it into Liu Longwei’s bowl.

Seeing this action, Liu Longwei grinned like an idiot. "Fengfeng, thank you. I will eat it."

Bai Xiang and Bai Tingfeng felt like they had been eating some clay. Bai Xifeng just ate until she was full.

She was so full that she was feeling sleepy. However, she should not sleep. She had something else to do.

Liu Longwei seemed to understand that he should not disturb Bai Xifeng anymore. He told Bai Xifeng that he would return to his room to take a nap.

Hearing this, Bai Xifeng was green with envy. She wanted to sleep as well. But she could not.

She excused herself to go to the pill room. She checked on the stock of the herbs. A lot of them had already been used up. She needed to restock.

She was thinking to go to the market to buy some. Well, she also wanted to send the elixirs and pills to the Shanghai Pavillion in the Capital City.

Bai Xifeng went to see her brother to inform that matter. Then, her brother told her that he would be accompanying her.

She did not mind that her brother accompanied her. She felt a lot safer. So, she told her brother to wait for her not far from the entrance of the military camp.

Without asking for anything, Bai Tingfeng did what he had been asked to. While he was waiting for his sister, he saw a silhouette which resembled his sister.

Thinking that the silhouette was his sister, he approached that silhouette. However, when he saw the face, he was surprised. It was not his sister. In fact, it was a young man.

"Sorry, I thought you were my sister." Bai Tingfeng apologized to that person.

"Big brother."

Bai Tingfeng recognised the voice. It was his sister’s voice. But why was that voice coming from this young man?

"What?" Bai Tingfeng was confused.

"Big brother... It is me, Xixi." Bai Xifeng said.

She was wearing Baishe’s human face.

"Xixi? Is that you?" Bai Tingfeng was dumbfounded.

"Hmm... I am using illusion to make people think that I am a man." Bai Xifeng nodded. "By the way, you should remember this face belonged to my contracted first, Baishe." She pointed at the face.

"Oh, no wonder. I think that I have seen this face before. But I could not remember where. It is Baishe’s face." Bai Tingfeng finally remembered that. "But why are you using his face?"

"I just want to hide my identity." Bai Xifeng said.

"We should depart now." Bai Tingfeng said.

Bai Tingfeng prepared two horses. Bai Xifeng had some experience riding the horse. So, that would be no problem for her to ride the horse.

The two of them ride the horse to the market. The first destination was the Shanghai Pavillion.

The storekeeper smiled while welcoming Bai Xifeng and Bai Tingfeng.

"Welcome to Shanghai Pavillion. What can I help you with?" The storekeeper smiled.

"I want to see the manager of this branch." Bai Xifeng stated.

Still with a smile on his lips, the storekeeper said, "Customer, you can not see our manager with a proper thing."

Bai Xifeng remembered something. She took out a token and showed it to the storekeeper.

"Can I meet with him with this token?" Bai Xifeng said.

The storekeeper recognized that token. It was a token given to the customers who had a relationship with Shanghai Pavillion.

"Young master, I will call the manager first. Please wait for a moment." The storekeeper bowed respectfully to Bai Xifeng.

The storekeeper quickly rushed to the back to inform his manager about the arrival.

Bai Tingfeng was surprised to see the storekeeper being so respectful to his sister.
