Mysterious Shender
⁇ : Gifts from Elena Ashvorsky

Ying Yue finished her breakfast quickly. He glanced here and there, but did not find Xi Wei anywhere. The Princess turned her gaze to another corner of the room where Ruofan and Xincai were sitting. He found the two of them still there. He also approached them.

"Sister Xincai. Ruofans. Can I sit here?"

"of course. Is Xi Wei making things difficult for you, Ninth Brother?"

Ying Yue shook her head.

"No. But, Big Brother Xi Wei said he would take me and Ruofan to go practice at that place."

Ruofan immediately goosebumps upon hearing that.

"Oh? I haven't been there in a long time either. I'm going to come along. Waita minute. I'll talk to Xiangheng first."

As for Xincai, Ying Yue and Ruofan did not speak much. They only guessed at each other what Xi Wei would do if the two of them could not follow the directions well, occasionally laughing loosely, occasionally laughing nervously, and being silent for a while, he said, then find another topic to talk about.

Soon, Xincai returned and took the two of them away.

"Do you know where Xi Wei is?"

Xincai asked as the three of them walked out of Wufalou. And, just then also Ying Yue and Ruofan could see Xi Wei was behind Xincai, tapping on the shoulder of his Third Princess several times. Xincai turned around.

"Oh here you are apparently. It doesn't matter if I go there, does it?"

"No problem. Then, I'll go first, I'll wait for you there."

"Oi!"

Nothing yet, Xi Wei had already disappeared. The three people who were left behind could only complain and sigh. But not long after, the sapodilla-skinned youth matured again. He raised Ying Yue then left again.

Ying Yue stared in disbelief.

"Why?"

"Because you're my future wife."

Ying Yue puffed her cheeks in annoyance at Xi Wei's reply.

"Is it okay to leave them there?"

"My goal is to train you. It's okay if they're left out. Even if they don't come."

It didn't take long for Xi Wei to get to that place. He opened the old gate and left it open for Ruofan and Xincai to enter.

"Is it okay if it's not closed?"

"There are no valuables here, nor are there many traps. If I want to go in, I just let it go. I'm not making a fuss."

'Sister Xi Wei is indeed cruel.'

Ying Yue laughed nervously. He could only hope that Xi Wei would not torture him while they were training. Speaking of torture, the Princess just remembered the scene inside the dream mirror, where Xi Wei and Xi Chen were fighting. Xi Wei was severely beaten by his own father.

'After what I knew about her, Big Brother Xi Wei was able to lose to someone. But, there was no doubt that Big Brother Xi Wei's father was an Elder. It's only natural that he lost.'

"I will lose to those who have experienced many terrible experiences on the battlefield or have faced various kinds of Pesilat from various parts of the world."

Ying Yue felt that Xi Wei was a clairvoyant. The sapodilla-skinned youth could even figure out what Ying Yue was thinking.

"I'm not a fortune teller, Little Sister. But you can call it that. I'm just guessing the contents of a possible thought when you're somewhere. That's a human psychology trick."

"The human psychology trick?"

Xi Wei smiled. Before he answered Ying Yue's curiosity, someone immediately answered him.

"The human psychology trick is a trick by which we will know human behavior, mental function, and mental processes through learning and scientific procedures."

Xi Wei and Ying Yue turned their gazes towards the voice they heard.

Ying Yue was a little shocked to find Elena was there without a sound.

Actually, Xi Wei knew that Elena had already been there. It's just that he doesn't really care about it. That day must be a holiday for Elena. The Blonde Girl did like to visit Xi Wei without any news and came away like a real ghost.

"How did you get to this place?!"

Elena laughed lightly.

"I am someone who penetrates time and space."

Ying Yue was increasingly clueless with the answer given by Elena.

'What does it mean to penetrate space and time?'

"Don't say things that others won't understand, Elena."

"But, you understand, right?"

"Sometimes I don't understand why I understand."

"Every human reasoning is different. I don't know why I'm so sure you're the soul of a modern-day man who accidentally got thrown into this age and lost your memory."

Xi Wei and Elena laughed together. Ying Yue herself fell silent and put on a astonished look. The Princess did not understand what the two people were talking about.

"Are you going to practice today? It's my day off. It's so tiring after so long no vacation."

"I'm not going to practice, Elena. He's gonna do it."

Xi Wei pointed towards Ying Yue using his thumb. She smiles.

"Oh? The princess will be training. Great women in this age. They can practice."

"Have you never done it?"

"You know my story, Xi Wei."

Ying Yue was a little jealous of Xi Wei and Elena's closeness. He felt like there was no barrier wall restricting the relationship of the two people. While with him, Xi Wei always looked cold and mysterious. He didn't know what was wrong until he couldn't make the mature brown-skinned youth laugh at him like the Blonde Girl did.

Xi Wei realized that Ying Yue was showing dislike when she spoke intensely to Elena like that.

'It looks like this Little Sister has misunderstood.'

"Oh yeah, I won't linger here. I'm just here to deliver some sweet treats for you. Xi Wei, you remember I told you about 'wine', right?"

"Oh, I remember."

Elena took out something from inside her backpack.

"It."

Elena took out a bottle of wine from there, followed by five different containers.

"This is from all over the world. I've arranged them into these places so you don't get confused. Wine would be perfect when drunk along with this sweet."

Elena pointed to a bright yellow colored container that somehow contained what.

Xi Wei nodded his head.

"Thank you, Elena. I'll try this thing called wine. And also, some sweets you've brought."

"I'll be very happy, Xi Wei. Then I'll go first, see you!"

Xi Wei and Ying Yue saw Elena disappear before their eyes.
