The rain outside seemed to become heavier, and the dark sky made visibility increasingly low. Although it was clearly midday, it already felt like night had fallen.
The flame of the old oil lamp flickered, the lamp oil slowly dripped into the cup, but it didn't accumulate much, as if Xu Chang'an hadn't stayed by Yun Qian's side for long.
"Why don't you leave?" Yun Qian asked as she turned around.
"Our teacher is not someone who acts in haste." Xu Chang'an placed an unlit Fire Stone next to the oil lamp, then stood behind Yun Qian, arranging her long hair and tying the ribbon neatly in a red and white combination, cute yet still possessing a girlish charm.
"It looks good like this too." Xu Chang'an said.
"Mm, but I still want…" Yun Qian reached out to touch her ear, not yet explaining before Xu Chang'an interrupted.
"I know." Xu Chang'an helplessly glanced at the golden earring on the bracelet.
Yun Qian wanted to wear the jewelry he had given her, and it was hard to refuse.
