"All right, now we're even. Hmph."
Tian Ling's face flushed as she turned to leave.
"Junior Sister Tian, wait." Jiang Siming spoke up as well.
Tian Ling said awkwardly, "I already gave you a gift. What else do you want?"
Jiang Siming deliberately rummaged around in his robes and pulled out an exquisite doll.
"This is a cloth doll I bought in the mortal world. It's for you."
Tian Ling had never seen such an exquisite and adorable doll before. Girls had no resistance to toys like this, especially since it was her first time seeing one.
"Thank you. I like it very much!"
Tian Ling took the doll and hugged it to her chest, overjoyed.
Tian Buyi glared from the side, but there was nothing he could do.
Seeing that the two had finished exchanging gifts, he quickly spoke up. "All right, hurry back. Your mother has already prepared the meal."
Then he warned Jiang Siming, "Although you possess extraordinary talent, the Qingyun Sect has many other young talents. In two years, it will be time for the Qingyun Sect's Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament, held once every seven years. Cultivating diligently is what matters. Don't let your heart wander and disappoint the Sect Master."
"This junior will remember it and keep it firmly in mind." Jiang Siming nodded.
Tian Buyi grunted and did not linger. He led Tian Ling up the mountain.
Jiang Siming also turned and left.
As Tian Ling climbed the mountain, she occasionally turned back to sneak a glance at Jiang Siming. The movement was exactly the same as Zhang Xiaofan's just now.
"Why did you give away the jade bracelet your mother gave you?" Tian Buyi asked quietly from the side.
Tian Ling hurriedly hugged the doll and sped away, leaving behind a sentence.
