CHAPTER 618: CHAPTER 618: FENG FUCE SENT HER A CARRIAGE FULL OF TORTURE INSTRUMENTS

After Bai Zhi’er’s mansion was decided, the first thing she did was to take down the old plaques.

On this scorching summer day, Bai Zhi’er stood under the blazing sun, tilting her little head to watch the followers help hang the new plaque.

The words were personally given by Bai Xilie, inscribed as "Feng Chao Wen Mansion."

In front is Mingyang Academy, and behind is Feng Chao Wen Mansion.

Put together, it forms Ming Feng Chao Yang.

Bai Zhi’er intends to carry out her mother’s idea thoroughly.

To let Great Chu be filled with talent, and moreover, all of them should belong to her papa!

"A little to the left, a bit more!" Bai Zhi’er waved her tiny hand, directing the placement.

Unfortunately, the two followers on the ladder, one of them failed to hold the other end of the plaque.

His hand slipped, and he watched as the plaque was about to fall to the ground and shatter.

Suddenly!

A figure in profound silver sprang forward, lifted the plaque with one hand, and easily held it up, allowing the followers to secure it.

Bai Zhi’er blinked her big round watery eyes, exhaling a sigh of relief.

"Brother Fu Ce, luckily you arrived in time!"

Otherwise, her Feng Chao Wen Mansion would have "smashed its own sign" before even opening, which would be an ill omen!

Today, Feng Fuce wore a silver elegant robe in casual attire, with his hair bound by a dark jade crown, giving his usually cold and ruthless demeanor an air of carefree nonchalance.

He raised an eyebrow, standing on the steps and looking at Bai Zhi’er: "I heard you’re opening a Wen Mansion, so I’ve come to present a gift."

As Feng Fuce gestured, two Xiu Luo Envoys immediately drove a spacious carriage forward.

Bai Zhi’er’s eyes suddenly sparkled, filled with tiny stars.

"Wow! Brother Fu Ce, what wonderful gift have you prepared for me!" She ran over joyfully and lifted the curtain to take a look.

The excitement on her small face instantly froze, eventually turning into a touch of speechlessness and bewilderment.

Feng Fuce came to her side and asked, "How is it? With so many torture instruments, placing them where needed will surely intimidate students into studying earnestly."

Bai Zhi’er wiped away cold sweat with her small hand.

"Brother Fu Ce, the gift is great, but don’t bring this next time. I’m opening a place for studying, not a mini Xiuluo Guard. So many torture instruments aren’t suitable here!"

She shook her head: "Tell them to haul it back."

Feng Fuce frowned in hesitation, his sharp gaze fixed on Lei Hu.

Recently, Chu Ping was sent on a mission and was not in the Xiuluo Guard, so this idea was Lei Hu’s.

Originally, Feng Fuce wanted to gift a few fruit trees that Bai Zhi’er would surely like, but Lei Hu suggested that to impress the Princess, the gift needed to be unexpected.

Now there is indeed a deep impression, but judging by the little rascal’s expression, it seems it wasn’t a good impression.

Feng Fuce’s eyes grew increasingly dark and cold: "Then I’ll choose another gift next time."

Bai Zhi’er quickly brushed off the recent episode.

She reached out her tiny hand, taking hold of Feng Fuce’s wrist.

"Brother Fu Ce, you’re in for a treat! Fourth Brother helped me hire two chefs, and they just arrived today. Come, let’s taste the Wen Mansion’s culinary skills!"

"You’re actually the first to dine here, earlier than the students coming to study."

Bai Zhi’er led him, pattering inside.

Upon sitting in the spacious hall, Feng Fuce looked around.

It resembled a large dining establishment, with over a dozen tables for the students to dine.

Bai Zhi’er beamed: "How is it, impressive? There are three more dining halls like this, don’t dislike it for being too much; the mansion is big—just being capricious!"

When they first bought this large house, Bai Zhi’er felt it was indeed worth it.
