"Okay!" The boss lady quickly picked out the eleven plumpest roses - symbolizing "wholeheartedness", carefully wrapped them in light gold paper, and tied them with purple ribbons.
When Bibi Dong walked out of the flower shop holding the bouquet, his face was still red.
She lowered her head and smelled it. The scent of roses was fragrant but not sweet, and it smelled good.
Next is the jewelry store.
"Exquisite Pavilion" is one of Spirit City's most high-end jewelry stores.
When Bibi Dong walked in, the shopkeeper recognized her at a glance and hurriedly greeted her, "Saintess Hall Your Excellency is here to welcome you, but you are not welcome from afar. What do you want to see?"
"I want to see... the ring."
The shopkeeper is a shrewd person and understood immediately.
He led Bibi Dong to the inner room, took out several brocade boxes and opened them one by one.
The rings displayed inside are all exquisitely crafted.
"This is a deep sea sapphire ring, symbolizing loyalty."
"This is moonstone, symbolizing pure love..."
Bibi Dong's eyes fell on a seemingly simple silver ring in the corner.
The ring is simple in shape, with no large gemstones and only a small piece of dark purple spar embedded in the center of the ring.
"This one is..."
Seeing her lingering gaze, the shopkeeper quickly introduced, "This is Amethyst Ring, made of Extreme North natural amethyst."
"Although it is not expensive, it has a good meaning."
"What does it mean?"
"Amethyst symbolizes wisdom and sincerity."
Bibi Dong picked up the ring, it was simple yet elegant.
The most important thing is that this color is the teacher's favorite color.
"That's it."
The shopkeeper packed it quickly and said thoughtfully, "Do you need engraving? Our store can provide engraving services."
Engraving?
Bibi Dong thought for a while and shook his head, "No need."
There are some things she wants to say herself.
When walking out of the Exquisite Pavilion holding a bouquet and ring box.
The sun is shining brightly and the autumn breeze is warm.
Bibi Dong was walking on the way back to the Spirit Hall, and my heart was pounding.
She imagined meeting the teacher later.
She wanted to hand him the flower, then took out the ring and mustered up the courage to say, "Teacher, I like you. It's not like a disciple likes a teacher, but like a woman likes a man."
How will the teacher react?
Will you be surprised?
Will you be happy?
Or... do you think she is too abrupt?
But no matter what, she had to say it.
We can no longer speculate and worry about gains and losses.
The more I think about it, the faster my heart beats.
The corners of his mouth raised unconsciously, and even his steps became much brisker.
When she walked to the long street in front of the main entrance of the Spirit Hall, she saw that familiar figure in the distance.
At this time, Qian Xunji was standing at the entrance of the palace, seeming to be instructing the guards.
Bibi Dong's eyes lit up, he quickened his pace and was about to call him.
At this moment, the wings behind Qian Xunji unfolded.
He seemed to be in a hurry and didn't even notice her at the corner of the street. He flapped his wings and soared into the sky, flying quickly towards the western suburbs.
Bibi Dong's smile froze on his face.
She stood there, holding the carefully selected bouquet of roses, looking at the increasingly smaller dot of light in the sky.
The outstretched hand slowly lowered.
"He's gone again."
The excitement and anticipation in my heart were extinguished instantly, as if a basin of cold water had been poured down on my head.
How do I feel... I feel like a joke?
She lowered her head and looked at the eleven red roses in her arms.
When the guard saw her, he saluted respectfully. "Saintess Hall."
Bibi Dong seemed not to have heard, and stood there blankly, with empty eyes.
After a while, she turned around mechanically and walked towards the Saintess Hall step by step.
Back to the Saintess Hall, Bibi Dong put the bouquet on the bed and then lay on the bed.
She lay on her side, staring at the bouquet of roses, motionless.
Time passes little by little...
The sunlight slowly moves from one side of the window to the other.
She didn't have lunch or dinner.
Just lying there like this, my mind was empty and I didn't want to think about anything.
"Knock knock."
There was a knock on the door.
Bibi Dong didn't move.
"Saintess Master?" came the maid's voice outside the door, "Ling Yuan Master is back... His injuries are a bit serious."
Ling Yuan?
Bibi Dong sat up suddenly. "What happened to her?"
"I don't know the specific situation, but... you go and have a look."
Bibi Dong got out of bed immediately, and the bouquet and ring box were forgotten in the room.
The atmosphere in Ling Yuan's residence was solemn.
When Bibi Dong pushed the door in, he saw his younger brother Bibi Xi sitting by the bed, holding Ling Yuan's hand tightly.
His face was pale and he looked exhausted.
Beside the bed, two treatment department Soul Master were performing the surgery at full strength.
Soft green Soul Power enveloped Ling Yuan's body. She was lying on the bed, her eyes closed, her face as pale as paper, her chest was wrapped in a thick bandage, and there was faint blood oozing out.
"Xiao Xi."
"How about Ling Yuan?"
"Sister..." Bibi Xi raised his head, his face full of worry and exhaustion.
Bibi Dong touched his brother's head distressedly. "Thank you for your hard work."
She turned to look at Ling Yuan on the bed.
The girl who was usually dashing and full of energy was so quiet right now that it made people panic.
Elder Gui Mei stood aside with a hoarse voice. "Fortunately, it was delivered in time. Plus, she had taken Immortal Herb before, which strengthened her physique and the evil odor did not completely corrode her internal organs."
"You should rest for a while and you should be able to recover."
He paused and looked at Bibi Xi: "Thanks to your brother for carrying her all the way back."
