Strongest Lady's

Ch. 69-From Dad's Year

“Nona, soon the birthday of His Majesty the Emperor will arrive, have you decided what gift to give?”

Weiruo turned to Yinyi, only to realize that his father's birthday was soon and had not thought about what he would give. Last year Weiruo only gave his father a high quality pen, this year Weiruo had not thought of what gift to give.

“Hmm .. I go first. I'll be back tomorrow,” Weiruo said goodbye and left without caring if Yinyi tried to prevent it.

Weiruo went to the Fog Forest, when stepping into the old memories of the Hunt Festival reminded the girl of Xiao Lang, who knew where the young man had gone.

The forest is so quiet, especially because it is still morning and the forest is rarely visited. The thin fog still filled the forest, but Weiruo had no trouble and continued to step in deeper and deeper.

In the midst of silence, suddenly a long screeching sound echoed in the air. From a distance the birds fly away avoiding something around them.

Weiruo thoughtlessly ran to the origin of the voice, as soon as he could see a black shadow standing on the corpse of a giant fox with golden white fur. Puddles of blood soaked the ground, as well as feathers around the fox's neck that had been slashed so wide.

“You ... Xiao Lang's? What are you doing in this place?”

The figure darted away as soon as Weiruo called out to him, making Weiruo so curious that he immediately ran up.

The chase action occurred, the figure moved so quickly through the trees, Weiruo so, he moved quickly so as not to lose track of the figure in front of him now.

Aura kill suddenly approached Weiruo, the girl immediately stopped her steps and stood by. However, a second later the gripping air that Weiruo felt disappeared just like that.

Weiruo almost let out as soon as he realized the familiar figure had disappeared. Although his face was not clearly visible, Weiruo was sure that the figure was Xiao Lang.

What was Xiao Lang doing in the Mist Forest? The question was spinning in Weiruo's head.

Even though Weiruo searched almost the entire forest with his aura, there was not the slightest sign of the existence of anyone other than himself.

Finally Weiruo gave up, his goal of coming to the Fog Forest was simply to look for furry animals. Lucky Weiruo the shadow figure had left the giant fox of his hunt just like that.

“This will match,” murmured Weiruo with a smile that adorned his face.

After such a long preparation, finally the anticipated day arrived, the emperor's birthday.

Luxurious ornaments adorned the main hall of the palace, hundreds of guests present in such luxurious and striking clothes.

Weiruo looked at the father sitting in the emperor's seat, beside her Xuan Riuyi also sat quietly welcoming each guest who congratulated her husband.

Other than Weiruo, the other emperor's children also came. Xuan Xiuyuan and Xuan Xiumei conversed with the other noble children. Xuan Fanrong, the son of the second concubine, did not look too flashy and stood in the corner of the room hiding himself.

Weiruo did not know the children of concubines other than the three of them because he had almost never met them except at an important event attended by concubines and their children.

The event continued, then it was time for the guests to show the gifts they had given the emperor.

One by one the guests showed me their lavish gifts. Starting from clothes, weapons, to spiritual plants, various kinds of gifts accumulate into one, if sold it will probably produce millions of gold coins and even then not half of the number of guests who come.

It was the turn of the emperor's sons. Xuan Xiuyuan immediately went up and took out a small wooden box.

Xuan Xiumei also did not want to lose, the girl passed the wooden box that was smaller in size than her twin brother's.

“Dad, I present this ring to you.”

Xuan Xiumei explained that the ring is made of rare jade and has benefits to maintain health.

“My daughter is very understanding, I thank you for this gift.”

Xuan Xiumei received an elusan at the tip of her head, a smile etched on her pretty face.

The girl then turned around, her gaze falling on Weiruo who was busy enjoying the dishes served on her desk.

“I am very curious what gifts are prepared by Big Sister, may this sister see the gifts that Brother prepared?” asked Xuan Xiumei.

Weiruo turned his attention to Xuan xiumei before exhaling a coarse breath. Weiruo knew Xuan Xiumei's purpose, what else besides mocking the reward he had prepared.

Last year the prize Weiruo gave was not worth what they gave so the two got a chance to sneer at him.

Weiruo himself had no intention of competing, no matter the price of the prize, for Weiruo his intention of giving the prize was the main one.

“Actually the gift I prepared is not as good as yours, My sister.” Weiruo got up from his place and walked over to Xuan Xiumei.

Weiruo took out a long wooden box, when opened it looked like a bow designed in such a way that it looked so beautiful.

“Dad, didn't Dad ever say that Dad really wanted to shoot hunted animals like he used to? I prepared this gift specifically for that!” Weiruo handed the wooden box to his father.

Xuan Guoxin could not cover up her admiration seeing the sturdy bow that was now in her grasp. It is true that he was so eager to hunt as his youth was, his spirit was burning as soon as he received the bow from Weiruo.

“Ah, one more!”

Weiruo took out another wooden box containing two fur robes that he had prepared for a week.

Xuan Guoxin lifted one of the robes and tried it out, once the robe was put on it instantly ushered in a sense of warmth, the coldness of the night seemed insignificant to him now.

“I was lucky to get the Golden Fox and a bit of the Golden Shell Pearl, so I made it the material to make that fur cloak. Then, I made a pair for Dad and Mom.”

Xuan Guoxin let out a small laugh, then took out another smaller sized robe and handed it to Xuan Riuyi who was sitting beside him.

Xuan Riuyi smiled faintly, feeling so pleased with what Weiruo was doing, only this time she got a match with her husband.

While happiness enveloped Xuan Guoxin, the invited guests whispered to each other at the materials used by Weiruo to make the robe.

Golden Shelled Pearls, rare pearls that have so many benefits. The pearls are produced by the Golden Shells which are hard to find, not to mention that it takes a long time to produce one pearl.

Weiruo used more than a dozen pearls for both robes.

Weiruo certainly heard the conversation clearly, the girl glanced at Xuan Xiumei with a slightly raised corner of her lips.
