He Jinxia went through the engagement party in a daze, her mind wasn't really there, and she kept zoning out.
Sometimes, she even wondered if it was all just a dream.
It was only after the meal, when the families exchanged keepsakes, that Jinxia felt a sense of solidity as she touched the emerald bracelet given by the Sheng Family, feeling a hint of warmth coming from it.
The bracelets came as a pair, one for her, one for Sheng Yan, one small, one slightly larger, and they could fit together perfectly, symbolizing an inseparable bond.
The He Family gave Sheng Yan a jade Guanyin pendant, an heirloom that had been in the family for a good hundred years.
There's a saying that men should wear Guanyin and women Buddha, so with Sheng Yan wearing the Guanyin, the Buddha was left for Jinxia.
After the keepsakes were exchanged, the parents on both sides breathed a sigh of relief.
