Sometimes, giving gifts isn't necessarily about the price tag.
If the friendship isn't there, a costly gift can only increase the psychological pressure, making it difficult to accept with ease.
Zhou Chun's decision to give this gift was also a kind of test.
If Luo Qingni insisted on not accepting it, it would mean that their friendship hadn't reached that level, and he would have no choice but to regretfully take it back.
That was why he chose to give the gift privately.
Even if rejected, it wouldn't result in public embarrassment.
And indeed, Luo Qingni was currently caught in a dilemma.
She had actually prepared the materials to craft her Lifebound Dharma Treasure, and the Spirit Materials for the Dharma Treasure were not inferior to the Spirit Wood Core that Zhou Chun had given her.
