The next afternoon, Chen Yi returned to Sword Edge Mountain.
Taking out the gifts for Ning Xue and the others from his Sumeru Bag, he presented them one by one.
"Thank you, Junior Brother."
Ning Xue gazed at the hairpin in her hand, her mind involuntarily recalling the time she had drunk too much, her cheeks quietly blooming with two red clouds.
In truth, having stayed on Sword Edge Mountain for so long, this was the first time she had received a gift from a fellow sect member.
This feeling was novel and, while happy, she couldn't help but feel a bit shy.
If it wasn't for Ning Xue being clear about the relationship between Chen Yi and Lin Xueru, and that she had seen the same gifts being given to the other junior sisters, she might have read more into it.
"Thanks, Senior Brother."
Hua Youxiang, on the other hand, didn't overthink it, promptly placing the hairpin on her head. She even admired how it looked with Li Mingyue, both exclaiming how pretty it was.
