"Accessories?"
The old lady's eyes widened in surprise.
The old man glanced at her, apparently thinking she was making too much of it. "What's wrong with a boy wearing an accessory?"
"..."
Xiao Xiao opened his mouth.
Then he shook his head with a helpless smile.
"Ah—"
Zhuge Yun covered his mouth.
He knew what Third Brother meant.
He exchanged glances with Zhang Bo, Zhao Luzheng, and the others.
Clearly, they'd all guessed.
If they weren't mistaken, they'd all seen that accessory before.
It was a brooch.
Two small gears connected by a silver chain.
The gears were dotted with tiny silver-blue diamonds.
It was beautiful.
And quite luxurious.
It was obviously expensive.
They were all surprised that Third Brother had bought an accessory like that.
For one thing, the fact that Third Brother would buy an accessory at all was unexpected.
Besides, even if Third Brother really wanted an accessory, they'd have thought he would prefer something in an ancient style.
After all, Third Brother had a distinctly classical air about him.
Like a young gentleman from an ancient noble family.
Could it be... that beneath Third Brother's gentle exterior, he also had a rebellious streak?
Uh...
No.
The accessory wasn't rock-and-roll at all.
It had a Western aristocratic style.
In their eyes, the classical Eastern gentleman had bought an accessory fit for a Western nobleman—something that wasn't entirely unlike him, but was certainly quite different.
No wonder they were so surprised.
They immediately asked Third Brother where the accessory had come from.
They'd thought of another possibility.
Perhaps Third Brother hadn't bought it himself at all.
Perhaps someone had given it to him.
If someone else had given it to him...
Then it wouldn't be so strange.
"I bought it."
