The group walked and stopped frequently, eventually arriving at the next town.
The girls were led by Xiao Yanzi to a stall selling hairpins. They looked at the hairpins on display, picked up a few to examine, and were not particularly interested.
"Do you want it? I'll buy it for you."
Chen Nian watched as Cai Lian's gaze fell on the hairpins. Although she thought that with the young lady's picky eye, she probably wouldn't like these, she still asked. Maybe this stall had something unique that the young lady would like?
However, despair is inevitable.
"No, I just want to look."
Cailian shook her head; she had no interest in these things.
I just thought the patterns were pretty. These are things you rarely see these days. Although the designs are simple and the workmanship is rough, they are all genuine and different from those made by modern machines.
However, some of these styles are not available in modern times. You can write them down so you can use them later. Now that modern Chinese culture is reviving, these are the styles that are lacking.
Just like in the original drama, the girls browsed around the hairpins, but in the end, they didn't buy anything.
"you--"
"you--"
"You two—"
Ertai Yongxuan and Benjamin watched as the other person returned to the stall, and then, in perfect unison, they looked at the proprietress standing behind the stall, who seemed a little dazed.
"Boss lady, could you please wrap up the hairpins those girls were looking at?"
Whether they are worthy of them or not, whether they wear it or not is irrelevant, but since they like it and have taken a few more glances at it, they want to buy it from them.
"Um, there were quite a few girls just now. Which girl's hairpin did you want?"
"..."
"Boss lady, could you please wrap up all the hairpins on your stall?"
Just as the group accepted the hairpins handed to them by the proprietress and paid for them, a wealthy and arrogant voice came from the side.
The group turned their heads and saw Yongqi, who had also sneaked out like them.
The four people looked at each other: ...
After the other three left, while the proprietress packed his food, Yongqi looked around boredly and happened to see Benjamin, who hadn't gone far, and stopped abruptly. To be precise, he saw the hairpin in Benjamin's hand.
Her gaze fell on the hairpin in Benjamin's hand, and she realized that it wasn't the two that Xiao Yanzi had been looking at. She was a little surprised but also relieved.
He was genuinely worried that Benjamin would get caught up in it and end up getting hurt.
I never imagined that Benjamin's words about letting go meant he really had let go.
And it seems...
...
Hearing the commotion coming from ahead, everyone knew there was more excitement to be had, so they all went over to see what was going on.
Did you bring your sketchbook?
Seeing that everyone was captivated by the scene ahead, and remembering the image of the hairpin still lingering in her mind, Cailian looked up and noticed Benjamin standing behind her, and asked a question.
She'll be staying here for a while, so we need to provide her with more security.
Yes, do you need it?
"Can I borrow it for a moment? I'd like to draw something."
Seeing Benjamin nod, Cailian made her request.
"Okay, you can use it."
Benjamin nodded, took out his sketchbook, and handed it over.
"Thanks."
Cailian didn't stand on ceremony. She took the sketchbook, turned to a blank page, and began to draw with complete focus, ignoring everything around her and becoming completely absorbed in her art.
Benjamin looked at the focused expression on the person next to him. At that moment, the sunlight shone on her, her beautiful face reflecting the light, and she seemed to be glowing. Benjamin couldn't quite describe the feeling in his heart.
...
"Want to give it a try?"
