They didn't notice anything unusual about the girl; after all, they were just ordinary friends, so they didn't think much of it.
Jianyan leaned against the wall, a tender look on his handsome brows, and said, "You probably haven't actually met her, have you?"
Actually, let me tell you, she's really a very nice girl and easy to get along with.
Her cultivation level is just too high; standing next to her would be very stressful.
However, she's a really nice person; if you meet her, you'll definitely like her too.
When Su Yang was mentioned, a rare hint of sweetness appeared on Jian Yan's face.
This was an expression Shen Yanyan had never seen on his face before.
Because the other person always has a blank expression, and even smiling is not a frequent occurrence, let alone such a happy look of being immersed in memories.
"You must love her very much, right?"
Suppressing the inexplicable emotions in her heart, Shen Yanyan asked softly.
Jian Yan remained oblivious, gazing up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, as if the clouds had transformed into Su Yang's likeness.
"I can't answer that question because I feel that the word 'love' is no longer enough to describe my feelings for her."
Perhaps you don't understand, but a long, long time ago, I decided that for her, I could give up everything, even my own life.
As Jian Yan said these words, his face was full of seriousness and earnestness.
But this made Shen Yanyan feel even more upset.
She was silent for a moment, then asked in a very low voice, "Does she... love you? Is she willing to give up everything for you, even her life?"
The sound was as soft as a mosquito's buzz, very faint and lacking in strength.
Because Shen Yanyan herself asked the question, she herself felt that she was talking nonsense.
How lucky it is to be loved so unconditionally.
If it were her, she'd probably be laughing in her sleep.
She simply couldn't imagine how cold-blooded and heartless a person must be to not reciprocate this burning love.
Perhaps only a heartless and emotionless god could do that.
Only love of equal measure can respond to this ultimate tenderness, can it?
Jian Yan naturally heard it, but he wasn't angry because Shen Yanyan questioned Su Yang's feelings for him.
Instead, he thought for a moment, and then, under the other person's gaze, took out a box from the ring.
A box completely engraved with divine runes, even radiating a divine glow.
Her eyes were blinded by the divine light and she could hardly open them. If it were any other time, seeing Jian Yan conjure objects out of thin air, Shen Yanyan might have cried out in surprise.
She would even wriggle and beg him to teach her.
But at this moment, she had no such thoughts.
As the light from the treasure box dimmed, the blinding sensation also disappeared.
Shen Yanyan stared blankly at the treasure box that Jian Yan was holding in front of her.
She knew the other person wouldn't do something meaningless all of a sudden; she was just afraid that what was in the box would be more important than she expected.
"The contents of this box are my most precious treasures."
As if confirming her guess, Jianyan gently stroked the box lid and said softly, "It's also the only thing she ever gave me."
It was also one of her most treasured possessions.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yanyan unconsciously swallowed.
She could sense the seriousness in Jianyan's words.
It's clear that even choosing to bring it into the world puts considerable pressure on Jianyan.
That is indeed the case.
This is the first time he has taken it out since receiving the token of love between him and Su Yang, and it is also the first time he has shown it to an outsider.
In fact, if it weren't for the fact that he didn't see Shen Yanyan as just an ordinary person who posed no threat, Jian Yan wouldn't have even taken it out.
Jade hairpins are, after all, just ordinary objects, unable to withstand even the slightest disturbance! (Actually, they're not that fragile.)
Without keeping everyone in suspense, Jianyan slowly opened the box.
Then came another burst of divine light. Enduring the stinging pain in his eyes, Chen Yanyan focused his gaze and looked into the treasure box.
Even a mortal like her could sense that this treasure box was extraordinary.
She couldn't even imagine how precious the treasures stored inside must be.
Curiosity was piqued at this moment, and expectations soared to new heights.
However, when the item inside actually appeared in her eyes, Shen Yanyan didn't react for a moment.
Because what was reflected in her eyes at this moment was not some rare treasure radiating colorful light or exuding unparalleled divine power.
Instead, it was a jade hairpin that looked rather ordinary to the naked eye.
If we're just talking about the style, Shen Yanyan thinks this jade hairpin carved with a white lotus is passable.
But placing it in such a treasure box, she always felt it was all show and no substance.
She even suspected that the treasure might have been switched long ago, but Jian Yan had simply not noticed.
"Yes, it's a very beautiful jade hairpin."
However, she couldn't say what was on her mind, so Shen Yanyan still praised him from the bottom of her heart.
After all, Jianyan values this so much, so even if it's just for his sake, he should say something nice.
Jian Yan could also see the disdain that flashed in the girl's eyes.
With a gentle touch, he closed the treasure box and put it directly into his storage ring, Jian Yan said.
"Perhaps in terms of the value of the object itself, this jade hairpin is just an ordinary thing that can be bought for a few taels of silver at the market."
But for me, it has extraordinary significance.
Because she left this with me and asked me to keep it safe.
This jade hairpin is very important to her. The fact that she is willing to leave it with me means that she has also entrusted her heart to me.
