"This Dragon Brand Jasmine perfume sounds really strange."

"The place where people bought it was in the square of East City, and it was also a roadside stall!"

"Set up a roadside stall in East City square, Naxia, can you imagine what that scene is like?"

"It is said that the pedestrians in the square were stunned at that time!"

"Furthermore, the most puzzling thing is that this Dragon Brand Jasmine perfume smells very good, not inferior to those expensive perfumes, but it is packaged in the worst bottle."

"If Miss Stella hadn't suddenly appeared and purchased it, the nobles probably wouldn't have dared to buy it. After all, people would laugh at it if word spread."

"But things are different now. It is said that Miss Stella has been wearing this jasmine perfume these days, and now the nobles want to buy it and use it."

"However, the caravan only came to Tulip City to sell it once. Except for Miss Stella who bought seven bottles, the nobles only bought ten bottles."

"In order to follow the trend and stand out, some nobles have already offered two gold coins to buy a bottle!"

"So many people wanted to buy it, why was that caravan only sold once?" Naxia was also aroused by Betty's story.

As a girl, she naturally likes beautiful clothes and dressing herself up nicely, but she is very aware of her family's situation, so she used to pretend that she was not very interested in these aspects.

"I don't know about this! Maybe that caravan came to Tulip City just by chance. People speculate that the caravan came from other Earl Territory!"

"By the way, it's a coincidence. According to rumors, that caravan also comes from a family called Berick, which has the same surname as yours Naxia!" Betty continued.

"Also called Berick Family?" Naxia was also a little surprised.

Of course, she didn't think much about it. After all, the surname Berick was still used by many families in the principality.

"Naxia, how great would it be if this Berick Family were your home! Then I don't have to spend money to use perfume in the future!" Betty also showed surprise when he saw Naxia, and immediately laughed at her.

Naxia was being teased by his good friend and was about to say something. However, at this moment, a man dressed as a guard came up to the two of them.

"Excuse me, two distinguished ladies, are any of you Miss Naxia·Berick?"

"I am, what's wrong?" Naxia was stunned. The man in front of her was the guard on duty at the entrance of the college. She was a little confused as to why he came to look for her.

"Miss Naxia, a few people came to the entrance of the college, saying they are your brother's subordinates. They want to see you, so I came to inform you."

"Brother's men?" Naxia became even more confused, but she did not ask again, but nodded to the guard, "Thanks for the notice, I'll go over and have a look now!"

"Naxia, could it be that your elder brother sent someone to find you?"

"Maybe, I'll go over and see now, Betty, do you want to come with me?"

"Of course I'll go and have a look!"

Afterwards, the two girls walked towards the college gate together.

"Are you sent here by my brother? Why did he send you to me?" When he arrived at the gate of the college, Naxia saw a girl standing at the gate of the college with two guards. The girl looked about twelve or thirteen years old at most.

"Are you Miss Naxia?" Upon hearing the inquiry, Lilia immediately bowed respectfully and then spoke to confirm.

"Yes, I am Naxia!"

Naxia is a little confused. He seems to have never seen these people before. It stands to reason that if they are people sent by his elder brother, they must be familiar to him.

"Dear Miss Naxia, hello! We are sent by Master Nalant. My name is Lilia, and I am now your personal maid!"

"Ah, it's Nalant!" Naxia was stunned. She really didn't expect that it was the person sent by Nalant. After all, Storm Territory was too far away from Tulip, and the character of her second brother...

"Miss Naxia, this is what I asked you to give to you!" Lilia didn't delay, directly raised a small box in his hand and handed it to her.

"What is this?"

"Miss Naxia, I'm very sorry. I don't know what's in the box. It was already covered when you handed it to me!" Lilia answered truthfully.

"Oh!" Naxia took the wooden box and nodded.

"Dear Miss Naxia, let's leave first. Now we have to follow your instructions and go to Tulip Castle!" Lilia saw that he had completed the task and respectfully said goodbye to Naxia.

"It turns out to be Nalant's subordinate, Naxia, open the box and see what's inside!" Watching Lilia and others leave, before Naxia could react, Betty immediately came up to them.

Although they are two years younger than Nalant, Betty also had contact with Nalant throughout last year.

Nalant is well-known as a loser in the academy, and has a dull and timid personality. He has almost no friends, but in the past, Naxia took care of him and gave him benefits.

I have never seen Nalant give anything to Naxia, so for Nalant to send a gift this time, Betty thinks it is as strange as the sun rising from the west.

She was even more curious about what Nalant could give Betty.

"Why don't you wait, wait until I go back to the bedroom and see for myself!" Naxia felt a little guilty. He didn't know what gift Nalant would give him. If it was too cheap, he was afraid that his good friend would talk about his brother again.

"What are you waiting for! Naxia, we are best friends. I promise, no matter what gift is inside, I will not say anything bad about Nalant!"

"Okay!" Betty said so. Naxia couldn't postpone it any longer. In fact, she couldn't wait to take a look.

Now he carefully opened the lock on the wooden box.

Snap!

With a crisp sound, the lock opened, and Naxia slowly opened the lid.

"Ah!"

The moment the lid was opened, Betty suddenly widened his eyes and screamed, pointing at the wooden box with a trembling finger.

"This... this...Naxia, am I not dreaming?"

I saw five fiery red Flame Crystal lying quietly inside the wooden box. In addition, there was a piece of letter paper and two bottles of perfume.

At this time, Naxia had no time to answer Betty. She was also in a daze.

"You two ladies, are you okay?" At this moment, the guard on duty at the entrance of the college came forward and asked.

After all, Betty's scream just now was too harsh. At this time, many people at the entrance of the college were looking at the two of them.

"No... it's okay!" Betty then realized that he had lost his composure, and immediately regained his dignity as a noble lady, and then shook his head at the guard in embarrassment.

"Where did these things Naxia, Nalant come from!" In Naxia's bedroom, Betty looked at the five Flame Crystal in the wooden box with eyes full of stars, which represented fifty gold coins.

"Fifty gold coins! You can buy countless beautiful dresses."

"I don't know either!" Naxia is actually more confused than Betty. His brother only became a lord because of the competition.

And he has only been a lord for less than two months, and yet he is able to give such a gift.

She had just read the letter in the wooden box. Nalant just expressed her gratitude for the letter she sent Flame Crystal last time.

And it shows that he does not lack Flame Crystal, so that he does not have to worry about him in the future.

"Don't you know? Never mind! It's rare for Nalant to give you a gift anyway, so I finally made up for it all at once this time!" Betty replied with a smile, and then picked up the two bottles of perfume in the wooden box with some doubts.

"It's strange, why did Nalant give you such a cheap perfume? Flame Crystal already gave it to you. If I really want to give you perfume, I should at least give you a gold coin for a bottle!" Betty continued to murmur.

At this time, she didn't realize at all that this was the Dragon Brand Jasmine perfume that she had just talked about Naxia.

After all, in her subconscious mind, the quantity of Dragon Brand Jasmine perfume was too small. How could she own Nalant, and it was two bottles at a time.

After all, Betty subconsciously opened one of the bottles. This is normal curiosity and just a subconscious action.

Bo!

With a soft sound, the perfume bottle was opened directly.

"Ah!" Another exclamation came from the bedroom, and the decibel was several times louder than it was at the door.
