It was cheap at all.

At the Grand Bazaar, it was fine to buy some small goods. The locals would also warn them not to buy any goods that would cost more than a thousand. If one was not able to appraise, they would most likely get ripped off. Shen Qianshu glanced at the crystal and took out her card without much hesitation. Ye Ling wanted to pay for her, but Shen Qianshu pushed him aside.

“What are you doing?” Ye Ling was furious.

“I am buying it for you. How can I let you pay?” Shen Qianshu blinked her eyes playfully.

Ye Ling was shocked, and before he knew it, Shen Qianshu had already paid for it. She took the bracelet and slipped it onto Ye Ling’s wrist.

At the deepest end of the Grand Bazaar, there were very few people. Little Tong Hua had already been attracted by a shop beside the one they were in and had long forgotten about them. It was the first time in Ye Ling’s life that he received… a real present. The black crystals and sea blue mahjong tile design was really ugly. He had long despised it. He also thought that Shen Qianshu would grind it again or that maybe she just wanted the copper pectolite and that she would grind it into a necklace back home.

Forty thousand dollars was not considered very expensive too.

They actually gained.

He did not imagine that such an ugly bracelet would be gifted to him.

It was the first time in Ye Ling’s memory that someone gave him a present.

Among him and his two brothers, they had never discussed giving each other presents. There was no such thing as giving a present for their birthdays without one having to return the favor. Three days before their birthdays, they would automatically send a message each day to remind each other: “Brother, my birthday is almost here. Transfer me money.”

“Shen Qianshu, you…”

Because of the terrain, Ye Ling, who was already tall, was still standing on the upper slope. Shen Qianshu could only raise her head to look at him. From his angle, he could only see her clean white face and her pink cheeks, and from her eyes, he could see the cold and stiff him.

“Copper pectolite is a power stone, and it can help a person to be calm and collected. It has a mysterious calming effect. Master, if you wear it with you, it will have very positive effects on both your health and emotions.” Shen Qianshu carefully looked at him. This bracelet was considered a cheap good to him, and it was also casually bought from a small shop. Would he like it?

“Master, do you like it?”

It was his first time receiving a present. Whether he liked it or not, it could not be compared to how his heart was beating crazily at that very moment. A whirlwind of emotions engulfed him, and he had a sudden longing to rip her apart.

He saw the beast again.

The beast hidden in the deepest part of his heart was attacking him ruthlessly, struggling to unleash its demon side. With wide eyes, it stared intensely at the petite and fair young lady in front of it.

Confused and curious about how she grew a pair of wings.

Like… an angel.

He howled, struggled, and then lay down docilely.

Do I like it?

I like it, Ye Ling thought.

This present was like a comfort to the beast’s dried and withered soul, which was searching for a ray of light after years of isolation, desolation, and almost giving up.

He searched and chased after it, but it was a light that he could not hold onto right from the start.

Luckily, this ray of light shined on him.

His ugliness was completely bared in front of her, but this ray of light was loyal and never once leaved him.

How great.

“Do not think that you can bribe me with just a bracelet. You need to return me my little princess.”

Shen Qianshu was speechless.

Ye Ling suddenly pulled Shen Qianshu towards him and smashed his lips onto her. The walkway was quite empty, and all of the people there were old grandpas and grandmas with one foot already in their coffins. The atmosphere was gloomy and lifeless. To them, this family of three was also like a ray of light, shining onto a half-dead piece of land, injecting vigor and vitality after what it seemed like a long drought.

The old grandpas and grandmas laughed happily, and although they spoke in a language foreign to them, it was their way of giving heartfelt blessings. The walkway instantly became more vibrant and lively.
