Medieval Princess Xu Youxiang

Previously, Xia Yu used the song "White Horse" to exchange the Sapphire Crown with Liu Manman. However, during the performance, he played the song "White Horse in the Rain," which made Liu Manman owe him a piece of jewelry.

As expected, Liu Manman refused Xia Yu's request. According to the exchange rate of one song for one Sapphire Crown, this gorgeous scepter was definitely worth more than the crown. But Xia Yu could not determine how much more valuable it was.

He considered whether he should exchange it for other jewelry, but he was sure that Xu Youxiang would love this scepter.

After gifting the Sapphire Crown and seeing Xu Youxiang's surprise, Xia Yu probed and found out that Xu Youxiang did not like extravagant jewelry but preferred jewelry with a touch of fantasy.

The more classical it was, the more Xu Youxiang liked it, and this scepter met the requirements.

"Should I add another song to the deal?" Xia Yu raised the stakes.

"It's not about the songs, this is the first gift my grandmother gave me, and it has sentimental value," said Liu Manman.

Liu Manman still refused.

"Three songs?"

"I already said it's not about the number. Choose something else."

After some thought, Xia Yu called Liu Manman.

Upon connection, he said directly, "What if I write a customized song for you?"

"Customized?" Liu Manman was intrigued for a moment, but still declined. "I've already told you that this is the first gift my grandmother gave me, so I want to keep it as a commemoration..."

"The title will have your name," added Xia Yu.

Liu Manman suddenly fell silent.

In her mind, she imagined scenes of performers of all ages and genders playing the guzheng piece named after her on various stages, and the applause of countless audiences after the performance.

Liu Manman could not resist this temptation.

She glared at the scepter and gritted her teeth at Xia Yu, "You devil."

"Devils believe in equivalent exchange, and God calls for selfless dedication. Be glad you met me, a devil," Xia Yu said cheerfully, knowing that Liu Manman had agreed.

"Hmph, how could I be so foolish to dedicate myself selflessly?" Liu Manman argued.

That conversation about devils and gods held no real meaning, but Xia Yu couldn't help but poke fun at Liu Manman.

"Hmm, like making you fall in love with me and then willingly give it to me?" Xia Yu replied casually.

Unexpectedly receiving such a response, Liu Manman's face flushed. She hurriedly covered her face, only to remember that Xia Yu couldn't see her.

"You wish!" Liu Manman said angrily.

"Alright, alright. Send the item to this address below, and send it as soon as possible," Xia Yu gave her Xu Youxiang's address.

"You have a house in the south side?" Liu Manman asked doubtfully, noting the address.

"Xu Youxiang lives there," Xia Yu replied.

Liu Manman was shocked to hear that Xia Yu could tell her so openly that the gift was for Xu Youxiang.

She immediately wanted to ask about the relationship between Xia Yu and Xu Youxiang, but felt that asking would cause trouble. Her curiosity was itching, but in the end, she decided not to ask.

"How do you plan to arrange my song?" Liu Manman asked.

"You can think of it yourself, 'Liu Manman', 'To Liu Manman', 'Ode to Liu Manman', and the like, it's all up to you, even the instruments, you can even have a symphony," Xia Yu said. "As for the style, you can give a general direction."

"I'll think about it." Liu Manman hung up the phone, first called someone in to take away the scepter, and then began to think about what kind of song she wanted.

She couldn't sleep all night due to excitement, while Xia Yu slept very well.

The next morning, Xia Yu woke up from his sleep, washed up, and had breakfast as usual. At nine o'clock, Liu Manman told Xia Yu that the scepter had been signed for by Xu Youxiang, and she had sent someone to give it to Xu Youxiang in person.

Satisfied, Xia Yu knew that Xu Youxiang's awkwardness was no longer a problem.

He didn't go straight to Xu Youxiang's place. Now that she had just gotten the scepter, Xu Youxiang must be extremely excited and busy admiring it.

Back in the bedroom, Xia Yu used his laptop to browse the internet.

On the forum that he posted for Tina, there was a new hint message. The first floor was a notice looking for a cousin, and the second floor said, "November 11th, the ticket has been booked."

The second floor meant that Tina would be coming over on November 11th, and the ticket had already been booked.

Below the post, there were many bored people replying, wondering what this meant.

Clicking on Tina's avatar, Xia Yu noticed that the account was still showing online, apparently Tina was still playing with her dad's or mom's phone.

Hiding his own trail, Xia Yu exited the forum.

He looked at some other posts in different forums, Xia Yu felt a bit bored.

The netizens in this world were not funny enough, and there were no interesting stories.

He casually opened a forum and posted a thread disguising himself as a Southerner complaining about Northerners, then in the second floor, he posted a reply disguising himself as a Northerner complaining about Southerners, then switched to a different account and continued to fan the flames in the comments.

After that, he sat in front of his computer, constantly refreshing, watching the Southerners and Northerners in the forum start their regional superiority and regional discrimination disputes.

To his surprise, there was even a third faction developing in the background, declaring war on both Southerners and Northerners.

The Southerners and Northerners stopped fighting with each other and joined forces to defeat the third faction. In the end, they reached a mutual understanding, shook hands, and made peace.

That's the charm of reality, no one can predict what will happen next.

After watching the drama all morning, Xia Yu was satisfied. He closed his laptop and entered Xu Youxiang's body.

After a moment of darkness, what appeared before Xia Yu were the dazzling scepter and silver crown.

As expected, Xu Youxiang was admiring the scepter, and she even took out the crown to play with it.

This was also Xia Yu's first real encounter with the scepter. The scepter was slightly shorter than an arm, about two fingers thick, with a slender snake wrapped around it. The head of the snake, which is the top of the scepter, had its mouth open, biting a red gemstone.

The entire scepter looked very dazzling.

"How do you like it?" Xia Yu asked, picking up the scepter.

"Hmph." Xu Youxiang ignored Xia Yu.

Xia Yu didn't care and just kept looking at the scepter.

After more than ten minutes, Xu Youxiang couldn't help but speak up: "I don't want this. You take it away."

"Don't you like it very much?" Xia Yu was a bit surprised. He felt that the situation of not being able to come once was not enough to make Xu Youxiang so angry that even the apology was not accepted.

"Ignore you, and you will send a gift, making it seem like I am greedy for your gift." Xu Youxiang said irritably.

Xia Yu didn't expect that Xu Youxiang was actually worried about this.

"It's okay, I am happy to give it to you." he said.

Xu Youxiang indeed liked the scepter very much and was reluctant to leave it. She said in a tone that seemed difficult: "This is an exception."

Xia Yu smiled a bit.

"Put on the crown and scepter, and then put on the set of clothes in my cabinet. I want to see what it looks like." After solving the entanglement of giving gifts, Xu Youxiang was happy.

As she said, Xia Yu called the nanny, changed her clothes, put on the crown and scepter, and came to the floor mirror.

He changed into a gothic skirt, with the crown and scepter, giving a feeling of a medieval princess.

Xu Youxiang kept sending joyful emotions in Xia Yu's mind.

In this way, they enjoyed the afternoon together with Xu Youxiang. Before leaving, Xu Youxiang asked, "Are you free next weekend?"
