Chapter 1751 Embroidery

"You want to know about the Xi Family? It'll have to depend on your questions since some information cannot be disclosed." Xi Meili said.

Shen Shi nodded and asked, "Then can you tell me what life is like in the Xi Family for you?"

"Life is boring." Xi Meili sighed. "As a princess from a royal family yourself, you should know what I mean. We spend most of our time studying and cultivating long before we even learn to run, and there's always a certain level of expectations for our every action. There are a lot of things that I wish to do but cannot do solely because of my background. It's a little suffocating at times if I have to be honest." Shen Shi's eyes flickered with emotion after hearing her own experience and feelings from Xi Meili's mouth. "I understand!" she said, "And I'm sure it's a lot worse for you, who is from the Supreme Heaven! I cannot even begin to fathom your hardships…"

"Well, I am used to it by now."

"Then what do you typically do when you're not studying or cultivating?"

"I go out to do missions such as this one for my family, which might be the only thing keeping me sane. Every time I leave home, it's like visiting a new world." "Do you have any hobbies that you do when you're free?" Shen Shi continued to ask.

"Hmm… Don't make fun of me for saying this, but I enjoy making things, such as sewing or embroidery."

"Wow! You know embroidery?! That's amazing!"

Xi Meili chuckled, "I can make something simple for you while we wait for your father's return. We have plenty of time, after all."

"Really?! Please do!" Shen Shi nodded enthusiastically.

Xi Meili proceeded to retrieve a piece of white cloth, a thread, and multiple colorful yarns. Once prepared, she began working with swift and precise movements.

Not only was Shen Shi amazed, but Yuan was also surprised by her unexpected talent.

'I didn't know she had such a hobby.' Yuan smiled inwardly. He thought she was a princess who only knew how to fight, so something so delicate was truly unexpected.

Several hours later, Xi Meili handed the finished piece to Shen Shi, whose eyes flickered excitedly.

"Here you go."

The embroidery had Shen Shi's name, as well as Shen Shi's beautiful face on it.

"Wow! This looks just like a painting! How did you achieve such fine details in this small piece of cloth? I watched from the beginning to end and still cannot figure it out." "The secret lies in the materials—the yarn, specifically. See how thin they are? It will take much longer to complete the work, but it's definitely worth it." Xi Meili showed her the yarns.

"Want to learn? I can teach you." Xi Meili then asked Shen Shi.

Shen Shi nodded enthusiastically, and Xi Meili began teaching Shen Shi the art of embroidery.

Sometime later, the guard outside the Shen Family noticed a lone figure wearing a veil approaching their residence.

"Halt and identity yourself!" The guard shouted at her.

"Tan Songyun from the Fairy Paradise. I would like to speak with the Dragon King."

"What does the Fairy Paradise want from the Dragon King?"

"This is a private matter," she said.
