Chapter 744: Chapter 744 Miss Liu
Bai Youwei was getting excited.
The more she thought about it, the more convinced she beca that it was a proposal.
In previous tis, a relationship might involve two to three years of courtship before taking the next step.
However, the current situation was different. From the mont they t to the point of sharing a bed, their relationship had fast-forwarded quite significantly. Shouldn’t marriage have already beco part of the conversation?
… Could it be that her disappearance in the last few days had caused him great anxiety, urging him to propose to her?
Possibly, that gift was a wedding ring? If not, then it must be a similar “pledge of love”.
She was confident that her excellent deductions were indeed accurate.
Bai Youwei couldn’t wait any longer. After a quick bath, she hastily put on her bathrobe and left the bathroom.
She scanned the room, her gaze finally landing on Shen Mo.
“Where’s my gift?” Bai Youwei asked.
“Finished bathing so soon?” Shen Mo, who was tidying up the bedding, glanced at the table. “It’s right there.”
Bai Youwei followed his gaze and saw a box on the table, just slightly smaller than a shoebox. It clearly wasn’t the kind of box that would hold a ring.
“…” Bai Youwei’s lips puckered in disappointnt.
She slipped on her slippers and shuffled over to unbox the gift, a bit listless. “What kind of gift is this…”
“You will know once you open it.” Shen Mo answered.
When Bai Youwei lifted the lid, she frowned, “What is this? Why did you get an urn?”
Did he want them to die and be buried together?
The ‘urn’ seed a bit small for that purpose.
Shen Mo laughed, “Take it out and have a proper look.”
Bai Youwei pouted, and took the ‘urn’ out of the box—oh, it wasn’t an urn, it was an incense burner.
[Ms. Liu’s Incense Burner— has a strengthening effect on so props, and needs to be used in conjunction with Ms. Liu’s Incense. ]
Bai Youwei was a bit startled as she turned to look at Shen Mo, “Where did you get this?”
Shen Mo replied, “I traded it with soone.”
Bai Youwei echoed, “Traded with soone?”
Her rising intonation betrayed her surprise.
Such an artifact was not easy to find. Players had to enter the ga of ‘Distressed Woman’, win, and coincidentally choose this as their reward. To top it all, they had to be at the Shanghai Base to trade with Shen Mo!
The likelihood of these events coinciding made the situation seem almost impossible.
Bai Youwei gently placed the incense burner down, examining and touching it. It felt cold to the touch, with an antique brass finish, surrounded by images of the auspicious Lotus. It was quite elegant.
When she had first got ”Ms. Liu’s Incense”, she presud it had so special significance. However, without the corresponding incense burner, it was practically useless. But now, she had finally found the matching burner…
Bai Youwei couldn’t help but ask Shen Mo, “How did you manage to trade it?”
Shen Mo explained, “Recently, Chu Huaijin has been collecting items at the base, trying to support the King’s logistics. For example, players living within the King’s territory can participate in collecting living necessities or props. I traded this incense burner for five of my props.”
“Five props?!” Bai Youwei grumbled, hitting him on the shoulder, “Spendthrift! Have you heard of haggling?”
Shen Mo laughed, grasping her hand lightly, “It’s okay. I had won quite a few props in the preliminary rounds, which were of minimal use to . It’s better to exchange them for this incense burner, to see what it can do.”
He then asked, “Do you want to test the incense in it?”
After thinking for a mont, Bai Youwei nodded, “Okay, let’s try it.”
The description said, “has a strengthening effect on so props,” but it wasn’t clear which props it enhanced or to what degree.
