"What's this?"
Shirley received the gift. It was a jade container neatly inlaid with ruby ornaments. When she opened it, she saw a phoenix hairpin by the side of a pill. Rather than the pill, her eyes loomed over the fantastic crimson hairpin, her expression blossoming with a lovely smile.
"Little sister, you sure know how to impress me. Did you receive a hint?"
Fairy Xiu Juili merely glanced at Evelynn while saying nothing, causing Shirley to giggle.
She turned around, displaying her back to Xiu Juili.
Xiu Juili took the phoenix hairpin and gently lifted Shirley's fiery-blue hair, pinning them up with practiced grace. The crimson hairpin slid in seamlessly, its carved feathers spreading like burning petals against Shirley's vibrant hair, accentuating her allure.
"It suits you," Xiu Juili took two steps back and finally said, her voice soft but carrying a faint undertone of pride as though she made it herself.
Shirley's smile widened as she looked at Evelynn and Isabella.
