She was completely bewildered at the time, so the photos she took show a blank expression in her eyes.
Only the lip color was strikingly bright.
But he said it looked great and even found a small pendant to embed the photo in it.
She wore that pendant from then on.
She was very familiar with the pendant; she could easily guess the direction of every tiny pattern on it, even with her eyes closed.
The pendant she was holding at that moment was the one he had worn ever since he put it on.
Pulling herself out of her memories, Lan Ying stroked the pendant, a slight twitch at the corner of her mouth.

After sitting down, I ordered a table full of dishes and started eating by myself.
At first, it was quite enjoyable, but after a while, she started to feel bored and something was missing.

He Qianjiao took out the crystal card and sent a message to Li Bate.
