Chapter 998 The Alluring Actor (19)

Cuizhuxuan, Yayuan.

There is a clear mirror on the sandalwood-carved dressing table. In the mirror, a beautiful and charming face is clear and bright.

Baizhi stood behind the master, combing his hair and grooming him gently.

"Master, do you want to get a hairpin today?"

"No, just tie it up casually."

Chao Xi looked at his face. After these days of nourishment and maintenance, it had become fairer and rosier, with a quiet light shining in his narrow eyes.

He casually picked up a hosta from the dressing table and handed it to Baizhi.

"This hairpin."

"Isn't this the hosta that Mr. Jiang gave you personally? It's so beautiful."

Chao Xi curled his lips slightly, raised his hand and touched his face gently.

"Go and bring me the red jade robe in the cabinet."

"Okay."

Baizhi obediently found the reddest and most gorgeous red robe in the cabinet filled with clothes, folded it and brought it to Chao Xi.

"Master, is this the way it is?"

"Well, put it on for me."

"By the way, brother April, the auction will begin today. Uncle Zhu has given him a lot of momentum, and half of the nobles in Jingyang City are here."

Baizhi muttered, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.

"Master, you should have destroyed his face directly in the first place, why give him a chance to recover."

Chao Xi's face was expressionless. After putting on a red dress, his long black hair was spread freely around his waist. His body was as slender as bamboo. It was the first time for a man who always wore light colors to serve in the service that he tried such bright and warm colors. , a pair of narrow and clear eyes seemed to have a cluster of fire burning.

The man's temperament is a little cold, but under the red clothes, he is a little more enchanting and bright.

Baizhi has been serving her master all year round, but she is still amazed by him dressed in red and keeps praising him.

"Master, you look so beautiful in red!"

Chao Xi took a step forward, the hem of his robe rippled, and the red waves rolled in, eye-catching.

In front of the window is the place where Cuizhuxuan receives guests. "Master, do you want to go to Soft Tobacco and wait first?"

"Don't worry, take the jar of peony balm from my cabinet."

Baizhi took the ointment, Chao Xi reached out to take it, and opened the lid. Soon, a faint fragrance slowly overflowed.

"It took more than a thousand peony plants to make such a small jar of peony ointment. When Jiang Guiren looked at it, he must have been very happy."

Chao Xi spent half a month making this jar of balm, and the red flower juice still remains on her fingertips. She can't wash it off and can only slowly wait for it to fade.

"Baizhi."

The man called softly.

"What are your instructions, Master?"

"Go, take out my set of tools, clean them and dry them."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

The master took out the set of tools again, seemingly looking for new prey.

After noon, Uncle Zhu came to the backyard again.

"Brother Chao, come on, uncle wants to tell you something."

Chao Xi put down what he was holding and walked to the door.

"What's the matter?"

"Jiang Guiren is bidding in front. You should rest today. Uncle will bring you bird's nest porridge. This porridge was ordered by Jiang Guiren to be made in Nanshan Cave..."

"She's here?"

Chao Xi directly planned Uncle Zhu's words and stared silently at the front building with his long eyes.

Uncle Zhu smiled narrowly.

"Well, but isn't this your April brother's appearance today? The nobles are bidding. He seems to be very interested. You should be good and don't get jealous."

Chao Xi didn't say anything, but just lowered his eyes steadily and looked at his bright red outfit.
