207: Chapter 207: Big Brother, Is that You?
In the mortal world, there exist “Spiritual dicines” over a hundred years old, but they are extrely rare, often found in the deep, seldom-visited mountains and forests, making them very difficult to obtain.
The “Doctor Pavilion Sect” where Lin Ruoxue belonged also had a small reserve of Spiritual dicines that were over a century old.
However, Lin Ruoxue had never heard of nor seen a Spiritual dicine like “Frostflower Grass” before in her life.
Suddenly, Lin Ruoxue thought of the words “Hidden Sect.”
“Hidden Sects” are those ancient martial sects that are isolated from the world and have a heritage spanning over a thousand years.
They are also the mystical, holy places all martial artists yearn for.
Lin Ruoxue heard from a senior in the “Doctor Pavilion Sect” that these Hidden Sects cultivated many Spiritual dicines, most of which couldn’t be found in the ordinary world.
So, could this “Frostflower Grass” that Su Linglong had given, which even she had never seen before, have co from a “Hidden Sect”?
Could it be that the Su Family had so secret connection with the “Hidden Sect”?
Of course, even if the Su Family did have connections with a “Hidden Sect,” it would be one of their deepest secrets.
Su Linglong would certainly not reveal it to outsiders, and Lin Ruoxue wouldn’t be foolish enough to ask about it.
Lin Ruoxue pondered for a mont, then quickly stepped up to the stage, standing beside her daughter Dongfang Ruhua, her gaze falling on the “Frostflower Grass” in her hands.
She sighed, “Linglong, what you’ve given is too precious!
When your birthday cos, we won’t know what to give you in return!”
In Lin Ruoxue’s opinion, “Spiritual dicines” were invaluable and could not be assessed with money.
And when Su Linglong ntioned that “Frostflower Grass” had a unique effect on beautifying and whitening the skin, it was even more so an invaluable treasure for a woman.
To tell the truth, when Fang Bai first took out the “Frostflower Grass” for Su Linglong to give to Dongfang Ruhua as a birthday gift, Su Linglong had felt a bit reluctant to part with it.
But after learning that Fang Bai had more, she willingly gave it away.
“Aunt Lin, whatever you give , I will like it!
I believe, the quality or the price of a birthday gift isn’t what’s important; it’s the thought that counts.
As long as the sentint is there, even if it’s just a small trinket or a bouquet of flowers, I will be happy!”
Su Linglong said smilingly.
“Well said!”
Lin Ruoxue took Su Linglong’s hand and patted it, saying, “Linglong, you really are a sensible and good child!
Whichever family’s man marries you in the future will be very fortunate!”
Those words made Su Linglong’s cheeks flush slightly red, and her eyes, clear as water, quickly glanced at Fang Bai sitting below the stage.
“Linglong sister, we haven’t seen each other for such a long ti.
Why don’t you stay over tonight instead of going back?
You can stay in my room, and we can chat all the way until midnight.
How does that sound?”
Dongfang Ruhua carefully placed the “Frostflower Grass” on a wheeled cart and turned to Su Linglong with the suggestion.
“That…
might not be possible, I ca with a friend, and it would be very impolite to let him go back alone,”
Su Linglong said, sounding a bit troubled.
“Where’s your friend?”
As Dongfang Ruhua had co out later and the lights below the stage were dim, she had not noticed Fang Bai.
“Over there!”
Su Linglong pointed towards where Fang Bai was sitting.
Following the direction of her finger, Dongfang Ruhua saw Fang Bai sitting in front of a dining table below the stage.
Her eyes imdiately lit up with surprise and joy, exclaiming, “Big brother, is that you?”
Though Dongfang Ruhua had only t Fang Bai once, he had left a very deep impression on her young heart.
Back then, Dongfang Ruhua still shuddered when recalling the attack that happened in the heavy rain outside of Yanjing.
In that attack, her family’s bodyguards suffered heavy casualties, and her grandfather’s heart attack ca on suddenly.
Witnessing the entire event, Dongfang Ruhua trembled uncontrollably, her fright was extre, feeling as if the whole world was about to collapse around her.
In the depths of despair, Fang Bai appeared out of nowhere, single-handedly took down all the bad guys, and cured her grandfather…
From that mont on, Fang Bai’s image in Dongfang Ruhua’s mind had grown imasurably.
Combined with his handso and attractive appearance, Dongfang Ruhua felt that none of the idols she had admired before could compare with Fang Bai.
Ti and again in her dreams, Dongfang Ruhua dreamt of Fang Bai appearing before her, calling her “little beauty” with a grin, then she would joyfully throw herself into his embrace, feeling his broad chest, so warm, so solid, his scent so intoxicating…
The fifteen-year-old beauty had reached an age of dreaming, and several tis in her dreams, Dongfang Ruhua experienced so embarrassing things.
Each ti she woke from these dreams, feeling the strange changes to certain parts of her body, Dongfang Ruhua would blushingly bury her head under the covers, unwilling to get out of bed for a long while.
This ti, for her birthday party, Dongfang Ruhua had fantasized about Fang Bai appearing like the hero from a martial arts novel, suddenly showing up with a gift she adored to celebrate her birthday, but she also felt it was a bit unrealistic.
What she never expected was that Fang Bai really did appear just as she had imagined.
In an instant, joy filled her heart to the point of nearly crying.
If it weren’t for all the people around, she really would have liked to throw herself into Fang Bai’s arms, just like in her dreams.
Dongfang Rushi noticed her sister’s unusual expression and glanced at Fang Bai thoughtfully, her brow slightly furrowing.
No one knows a daughter like her mother.
Seeing her younger daughter’s face filled with excitent and anticipation, Lin Ruoxue, who had been through similar experiences, understood clearly and smiled without a word, her gaze falling on Fang Bai with interest.
The mont Dongfang Ruhua called out “big brother,” Fang Bai felt too embarrassed to remain seated and stood up, waving to Dongfang Ruhua with a smile.
“Big brother, did you co to attend my birthday party too?”
Dongfang Ruhua took several steps forward, walked to the edge of the stage, and looked at Fang Bai happily, her large eyes sparkling with excitent.
The invitations for this birthday party were sent out by Lin Ruoxue, but Fang Bai was not among those invited.
Lin Ruoxue simply hadn’t expected that Fang Bai would co over as Su Linglong’s “bodyguard.”
Embarrassed by her daughter’s ntion of this, Lin Ruoxue hurriedly said, “Ruhua, the thing is, I’ve been so busy these days that I forgot to send Fang Bai an invitation.
Fortunately, he’s quite familiar with Linglong and ca along with her.”
“Oh.”
Dongfang Ruhua nodded and then looked apologetically at Fang Bai, “Big brother, I’m sorry!
My mother has indeed been very busy, and it was unintentional that she forgot to send you an invitation.
You mustn’t be angry, okay?”
Fang Bai was well aware of the situation and didn’t point it out, smiling said, “Does big brother look like he’s angry?”
“Not at all!”
Dongfang Ruhua said with a smile that was as beautiful as a flower.
