CHAPTER 245: CHAPTER 245: WITH YOUR ONE STEP, HALF AN ONION PANCAKE DISAPPEARED

Bai Xuanmo lowered his eyes, gazing at her intently.

He reached out and took it, taking a bite, and indeed, the taste was quite good.

Bai Zhi’er’s cheeks were puffed up, and her eyes were always shining adorably when she tasted delicious food.

In a soft and sticky voice, she said, "I think you were wrong just now! Between siblings, it should be about mutual support, not measuring costs, otherwise it will hurt feelings~"

Bai Xuanmo paused for a moment after hearing this, not immediately responding, but his gaze deepened slightly.

The little one continued, "So, this pastry is for Zhi’er to treat big brother, and I don’t want anything in return!"

"I’m so willing to share with you!" Bai Zhi’er beamed.

Upon hearing this, Bai Xuanmo bent down, pretending to bite the green onion pancake in her hand: "Really, then let big brother taste yours."

The little one immediately protected it with her small hands, her cute brows furrowed, pouting her cheeks, "You have your own!"

"Big brother just wants to eat yours."

"No, no!"

Bai Xuanmo immediately laughed, his eyes full of teasing: "Didn’t you say you’re willing to share with me? What a food-guarding Little Ball."

Bai Zhi’er protected her green onion pancake and stuck out her tongue at him, her little face full of adorably fierce expression.

Suddenly, from the bustling crowd ahead, a man in a panic dashed out!

Someone shouted, "Catch the thief, catch the thief!"

The man broke into a sprint, hurtling straight towards Bai Zhi’er.

Bai Xuanmo scooped up the little one, simultaneously extending a foot to heavily kick the man charging towards them.

There was a wail of "Ouch!", and the man fell to the side, immediately being pinned down by Bai Xuanmo’s followers behind him.

"Truly bold, running so fast, in a hurry to meet King Yan?" Bai Xuanmo’s presence was intimidating, his red clothing and black hair making the hostility between his brows even more pronounced.

However, the Bai Zhi’er in his arms stared at the half pastry that had fallen to the ground.

The little one was aggrieved: "Big brother, with one kick, my half green onion pancake is gone."

Bai Xuanmo looked down and laughed, dispersing the chill in his eyes.

"Blame me for being too quick, it’s okay, there’s an inn right beside us, I’ll take you to taste something even more delicious later."

At this moment, someone ran over, subdued the thief, and snatched back the wallet that almost got stolen.

The victim expressed gratitude to the siblings: "Thank you both, almost lost my money to this thief."

Bai Zhi’er blinked her large eyes, seeing a big crowd in the front, seemingly snatching something.

She asked, "What’s happening over there?"

"Little girl, do you know about the Kunshan Goddess Fairy, this amazing person? Now, she’s entrusted someone to sell a remedy for colds, said to be very effective; there are only a hundred copies, so everyone’s grabbing them."

Bai Zhi’er nodded knowingly: "I see~"

Fourth Brother acted really fast, it seems she’s about to get a hundred taels soon!

Bai Xuanmo obviously wasn’t interested in hearing this; he carried Bai Zhi’er, turning towards the nearby inn.

He couldn’t help but sneer: "What Kunshan Goddess Fairy, sounds like a shaman peddling tricks."

Bai Zhi’er softly retorted: "You don’t know her, what if she’s truly a little fairy?"

Bai Xuanmo raised an eyebrow, glancing at her: "Little Ball, you should know that colds aren’t easy to cure, and seeking a complete remedy is even harder. Even with a prescription, the commonly used herbs for treating colds, Angelica dahurica and Purple Pearl, are quite expensive, unaffordable for ordinary people, let alone for curing illnesses."
